NBA: No. 1 Forward

At the beginning of the season, DeRozan was still a little uncomfortable with changing the offensive method for a while, and his state and statistics have declined.

However, the Timberwolves management was too impatient. He didn\'t give DeRozan time to adapt, and he didn\'t even ask for DeRozan\'s opinion, and directly agreed to the Raptors\' trade application.

After coming to the Raptors, DeRozan received the attention of the general manager of the team, Brian Colangelo, and a warm welcome from the team.

This made DeRozan, who was still very sad, suddenly feel a lot warmer.

Although DeRozan cannot say that he is completely devoted to the Raptors, at least he has a certain affection for Brian Colangelo.

Seeing his friend\'s return, Lian Dao really didn\'t know whether to tell him about his future career trajectory. After thinking for a long time, Lian Dao still didn\'t choose to tell him.

It\'s just that Lian Dao also implicitly expressed some of his own views, mainly because Lian Dao didn\'t want to see DeRozan being abandoned by others, and counting money for others happened again.

Even if DeRozan is abandoned by the Raptors again in this life, he can at least have a psychological warning in advance.

…

People originally expected the Boston Celtics to stop the Knicks\' winning streak, but they didn\'t expect that the Dallas Mavericks who lost to the Knicks in the season opener + Christmas game turned out to be the one who did it.

On February 19, under the expectation of countless fans, the Knicks\' winning streak was finally ended.

And it was the Knicks\' opponent in last season\'s finals and the opening game of the new season, the Dallas Mavericks, that defeated them.

At the end of the game, the American Airlines Stadium seemed to be a scene of carnival, and all the people in Dallas were jumping wildly, as if the Mavericks had won the championship.

Lian Dao stood on the court, looking at the big screen above his head.

104:101.

The Knicks only lost to the Dallas Mavericks by three points, but whether it is three points or thirty points, a defeat is a defeat.

After Nowitzki cheered, he looked at Lian Dao with a smile on his face.

Not since the Knicks beat the Mavs in the Finals has Dirk Nowitzki smiled this much.

Before that, he always thought that one day he would be able to beat the Knicks to avenge his shame, and he always wanted to face Lian Dao as a winner.

For the Mavericks, this game is not only an ordinary regular season, but its meaning is beyond the regular season.

The Knicks defeated the Mavericks to win the championship last season, and beat the Mavericks again when the championship ring was awarded in the season opener.

Facing the Knicks, the Mavericks actually had no room to fight back.

Since the beginning of last season, Nowitzki has been under the friction of Lian Dao, especially in the finals. No matter how beautiful the offense they played, there is no way to win. This feeling that there is no hope of victory, Let everyone suffer.

But Nowitzki didn\'t think about giving up. He didn\'t forget those humiliating days. He kept holding his breath in his heart, hoping that he could get back everything he lost in this match.

This victory made everyone in the Mavericks feel like they had climbed a mountain, and everyone in the Mavericks got a kind of release psychologically.

So, that\'s why Nowitzki is so excited.

"You beat me in the opener last time, and I beat you this time. We are even."

At this time, a deep voice rang in Lian Dao\'s ear.

Lian Dao turned his head and saw that it was Yao Ming walking over with a smile.

Lian Dao and Yao Ming clapped and hugged each other. Looking at the interaction with his teammates and Yao Ming\'s smile on his face just now, Lian Dao knew that Yao Ming\'s life in the Mavericks was pretty good.

"Brother Yao, you played well. I really didn\'t expect that your lineup would be adjusted so quickly!"

Thinking of this, Lian Dao couldn\'t help but marvel at coach Carlisle\'s coaching skills.

Last time they played against each other, the Mavericks still had a lot of problems with their lineup, and they couldn\'t form a tacit understanding in some passing and cutting cooperation, but this time they played against each other, these problems have disappeared.

The reason why the Knicks lost is also because of this.

Lian Dao knew that they would definitely form a chemical reaction, but in Lian Dao\'s estimation, it would be the second half of the regular season, and he didn\'t expect it to be so soon.

"Hahaha, you are all making progress, we can\'t lag behind either, let\'s go, go to my house tonight, we haven\'t seen each other for a long time!"

"Okay, after the meeting is over, it depends on Brother Yao\'s arrangement!"

After the post-match press conference, Lian Dao and Yao Ming went to his apartment in Dallas.

"Brother Yao, why don\'t you buy a villa in Dallas, don\'t tell me you have no money."

Lian Dao and Yao Ming talked easily together.

"Your sister-in-law won\'t let it go, and as Xiaolei grows up, Dallas is destined not to be the final destination!"

Yao Ming also made no secret of Lian Dao.

Lian Dao nodded, he understood what Yao Ming meant.

Most of Yao Ming\'s business in the United States is in Houston, and there are not many in Dallas, it should be said that there is almost none.

If it weren\'t for the desire for a championship, Yao Ming probably wouldn\'t have come to Dallas at all.

Historically, why Yao Ming was unwilling to leave Houston to chase the championship, in addition to loyalty, careers other than basketball, family, are also aspects that Yao Ming needs to consider.

When he came to Yao Ming\'s house, Lian Dao took the gift he had prepared.

An exquisite baby golden lock made of pure gold was given to Yao Ming\'s daughter.

Yao Ming was not polite to Lian Dao either.

After entering the house, Lian Dao found that the nanny was looking after the children and Ye Li was busy in the kitchen.

Seeing Lian Dao coming in, Ye Li hastily greeted Lian Dao.

Ye Li is very kind to Lian Dao. Before Yao Ming\'s leg injury, Lian Dao helped introduce Chinese medicine, which made Ye Li very grateful.

Although Lian Dao said that there is no need to be so polite, Ye Li always took it to heart.

During the festival before, Ye Li visited Lian\'s father and mother when she returned to China.

Lian Dao took out the gift and put it on for little Amy. The little guy grabbed the golden lock and looked left and right with curiosity, as if he was getting a new toy.

Yao Ming\'s daughter was born in 2010, and now she is more than one year old. Her chubby face is covered with collagen, and she is very cute with a pair of big eyes.

"Since you like children so much, when are you going to marry Yuwei and have children?" Yao Ming asked.

"Brother Yao, I\'m only 21 years old. If I get married, it will take two years, but I haven\'t really thought about having children!"

"That\'s right, you were young when you entered the alliance. I...forget it, but you must tell me when you get married."

"Don\'t worry, you and sister-in-law must be indispensable, hahaha!"

Lian Dao knew that Yao Ming didn\'t want to talk too much about his entry into the NBA, so the two talked about family and other light topics.

After eating at Yao Ming\'s house, Lian Dao bid farewell and went back to the hotel.

The Knicks will fly back to New York at two o\'clock in the morning tomorrow. They will face the New Jersey Nets back to back at home tomorrow night.

The Knicks\' schedule before the All-Star start is not good. They have to play a 6-day 4-game schedule, but this is because the Knicks ranked first in the league\'s record last season.

Except for back-to-back games against the Nets, there is still a one-day interval between the other two games. Although the schedule is difficult, they at least have a rest time.

The Knicks have almost no training sessions in the week before the All-Star start, and this kind of schedule can only be practiced by games.

Therefore, Lian Dao seldom gets up early to go to the training hall during this period~www.mtlnovel.com~ All players will take the time to rest, and just go to the arena for some warm-up training in the afternoon.

This kind of training is not so much a warm-up before the game as it is more appropriate.

…

The next day, after the alarm clock sounded at twelve o\'clock at noon, Tony Allen felt that he was still awake, and he didn\'t want to get dressed and get up at all.

Tony turned over on the bed and looked at Lian Dao who lived in the same room as him.

Generally speaking, during this time period, Lian Dao should get up and prepare for warm-up training.

But today, Lian Dao was just woken up by the alarm clock, and he is still dead on the bed just like him.

This is enough to show how tired Lian Dao is now. Even Lian Dao, who has a physical fitness of 96, is so tired, so the rest of the team can be imagined.
