With the blessing of many celebrities, the Celtics have the upper hand in the "media war"; but the "tearing force" among the fans, the Eagles have the upper hand without any objection. Killing the Celtics is the greatest confidence for Eagles fans.

In competitive sports, winning is the last word; if you can’t win on the court, it’s useless to say anything.

When public opinion stirred up waves, the league also announced the penalties for the two teams.

Glenn Davis was punished by the league with a "three-game suspension and a fine of $15000" for his dangerous actions during the game. You must know that after a player is suspended, he will lose three games of salary. Glenn Davis lost a total of nearly $40000, which is a huge financial loss for a player with a second-round pick contract.

The penalty on Garnett's side was even more serious. He first punched Glenn Davis in the game, and then got into a fight with Perkins. He was involved in two consecutive conflicts, and the punishment was naturally stronger. A little bigger, the league imposed a "suspension for four games and a fine of $20000" on him.

The Hawks had the best record in the regular season (26-7), three games ahead of the Celtics and Spurs behind them.Their excellent results can easily end the suspense of this season's regular season championship.Suspending Garnett for a few games and slightly "suppressing" the Eagles' performance is not necessarily a bad thing for the league.

Ke Yan didn't have much objection to the result. It's not a bad thing to let Garnett have more rest time during the regular season, and it saves him finding reasons for the rotation.

The Eagles have a healthy lineup structure. Both Bass and Anderson have the strength to serve as temporary starters. On the bench, veteran PJ Brown can also contribute his own strength, but Ke Yan still has no confidence to deal with Garnett's absence. .

On January 1, the Eagles played against the Bucks at home, and even without Garnett, they still won the game.

In the first half of the season when Yi Jianlian joined the Bucks, he averaged 8.9 points and 5.7 rebounds per game, and his shooting percentage was only 43%. No matter in terms of production or efficiency, he was a little sorry for the expectations the team gave him.

He is not like Durant. Although he is "inefficient", the supersonic team is willing to invest in him because of his strong playing ability visible to the naked eye; Convinced, and also showed a more efficient performance when he came off the bench, if Yi Jianlian can't get back to his form in the next game, whether he can keep his starting position in the future may be a big question mark.

With Garnett absent, Paul undertook more offensive tasks in the game, and also showed excellent form. He played very well, scoring 24 points, 13 assists, 5 rebounds, 1 steal and 3 turnovers, leading the Eagles to 114:101 Take the Bucks lightly. (27-7)

Ke Yan put Anderson on top of the starting position, but his performance did not miss the surprise of the previous game, but he scored 8 points, 8 rebounds and 1 block in a satisfactory manner.

Diaw's shooting ability is not stable, and his partner with Anderson can't create space for each other, and they haven't formed a good complement.Fortunately, the overall strength of the Bucks is mediocre and did not cause too much trouble for the Eagles.

. . . . . . .

On January 1, the Eagles continued to sit at home to face the Cleveland Cavaliers led by James Jr.

The two teams are old rivals. In the first round of the season, the Eagles easily won, but that was when Garnett was available to play, and the Cavaliers had just completed a big deal, and the lineup was not in place.

In this game, facing the Eagles without Garnett, the Cavaliers completed their revenge.

Mike Brown resolutely implemented the defense-first strategy throughout the game, and did a good job of defensive rotation while focusing on Paul.

The defensive system built with "James + Ben Wallace" has a very fast defense speed. Without Garnett's restraint in the interior, they can unscrupulously expand their defense to target the "projective" Paul and Joe. Johnson, the effect is obvious.

Although the Cavaliers' own offensive efficiency is not high, and the offense is basically based on James alone, but this season's little emperor really has the strength to carry the team's offense alone. His repeated impact made the Eagles' defense very uncomfortable.

Paul is a player who is good at playing key shots, but when the team is in a headwind situation, he is not good at completing consecutive attacks, and it is even more difficult to face the Cavaliers' targeted defense!This may be Paul's biggest weakness as a future superstar.

At 90:97, the Eagles lost to the Cavaliers at home and suffered their eighth loss of the season. (27-8)

1月8日，老鹰队休息一天后，又在客场以96:99输给了东部排名第十的76人队，爆出了冷门。（27-9）

In the second season of sending Iverson away, the 76ers have gathered a bunch of young talents, but still lack a "backbone" player.At the same time, due to the average scoring ability of the hand-picked core player Iguodala, Cheeks created a set of "defensive counterattack" tactics for the team. Dallah, Gerald Wallace, and Thaddeus Young constantly pressed the defense to create mistakes and create opportunities for counterattacks.

If there is Garnett, an offensive point that can oppress the defense inside, the Eagles can handle the 76ers relatively easily; and once Garnett is absent, the Eagles' offense will float more on the outside, against the 76ers. The team's defensive restrictions are a bit scratchy.

The Eagles' offense was blocked, and the 76ers are a team that is good at fast-break counterattacks. They opened up the point difference with the Eagles through continuous counterattacks and kept their lead until the end.

. . . . . .

On January 1, the Hawks returned to their home court and beat the Wizards to avoid a three-game losing streak.

After years of "unscientific" training to improve his personal strength, Arenas' knee finally couldn't bear his training load, suffered a serious injury, and was reimbursed for the season.

Without Arenas, the Wizards' strength has been greatly reduced.Although this team insisted on not being bad under the leadership of Butler and Jamison, and even played more "reasonably" because of the absence of Arenas, it is an indisputable fact that the team is not strong!

Compared with the Cavaliers' striker combination of James + Ben Wallace, and the 76ers' striker group of Iguodala, Gerald Wallace, and Thaddeus Young, the Wizards' Butler + Jamison's striker athletic ability Obviously it is worse, and the defensive strength that can be given to Paul is also much worse. This also gives Paul more room to play and can attack more efficiently after the pick-and-roll.

When Paul came to life, the offense of the entire Eagles team "resurrected"; in essence, this is a team that is stronger in offense than defense. Once it suppresses the opponent's firepower, winning is relatively easy.

In the end, the six Eagles scored in double figures and won a hearty victory with a score of 124:106. (28-9)

In the four games Garnett missed, the Eagles achieved two wins and two losses, which was within Ke Yan's expectations.Paul's statistics in these four games are not bad, but objectively speaking, his overall performance is not outstanding, especially when the team is headwind, it is really not very good.

. . . . . .

That is, shortly after the Hawks and Wizards, yahoo sports reporter WOJ suddenly announced a deal. The Grizzlies sent away the team boss Paul Gasol in exchange for Kwame Brown and Pachu of the Lakers. Ria, Mark Hill, two first-round picks in 08 and 10, and the first-round swap rights in 09.

After the deal came out, the entire league was in shock!Only the Lakers fans are left in the major forums to tell each other,

"Pau Gasol is here, Los Angeles is at peace! With Gasol here, the champion will be there!"

Although Gasol has only made one All-Star appearance in his career, his strength is definitely the No. The Bears' lone single-player strong point for most of the game.

In many cases, the reason why he can't make the All-Star is very simple. The West has assembled the three major forwards of Duncan, Garnett, and Nowitzki. Marion, who has an excellent team record.It's not that I'm not strong enough, it's that the opponent is Gundam!

Almost immediately, Spurs coach Popovich accepted the interview and expressed his dissatisfaction.

"It's not a trade, it's a robbery! The Lakers traded a few coins for a 100 dollar bill. It's a joke! I don't understand why the Grizzlies would make this trade, but if Buford is wasting the team like this assets, then only one person, me and him, can stay in the Spurs!" Popovich's anger was palpable, "I think the league really needs to set up a department to check these tricky deals!"

Popovich even bluntly questioned whether there was any "black-box operation" behind the deal, which shows how worried he is about the cooperation between the Lakers and Gasol!

In the triangle offense system, Gasol can act as a "pivot" on the offensive end, able to respond, pass the ball, and revitalize the team's offense; his weakness is that he is more afraid of the tough and layered defense of some teams , To put it bluntly, it means "bullying the weak and fearing the hard", and the Lakers have Kobe to provide him with containment, Gasol can play hard at the basket and share Kobe's offensive pressure.

It's not just a lineup reinforcement, it's a "match made in heaven"!Look at the Lakers lineup after the trade, Fisher, Kobe, Ariza, Radmanovich, Odom, Gasol.This Lakers team already has the strength to compete with any team!

In addition to Popovich, there are some other voices in the league that have questioned the deal, the loudest of which is Mavericks owner Mark Cuban.

Huo Qingshu also immediately asked Ke Yan's opinion on this deal, and Ke Yan was much more truthful in comparison.

"It is undeniable that this is an incomprehensible transaction. From my perspective, it is even difficult to evaluate what the Grizzlies got in return from this transaction. But in all fairness, this transaction is very important to the Eastern Conference The impact of the team is slightly less. Or, the person who needs more headaches for this trade is Popovich. The opponent I pay more attention to is the Celtics."

If you follow the course of history, the Lakers can make it to the finals.But since last season's Finals opponent changed from the Spurs to the Suns, Ke Yan no longer made judgments based entirely on the historical process, but instead considered the strength of each team and made his own judgments.Right now, the Suns have not made the "Marion trade O'Neal" deal to destroy the Great Wall. They still have top strength; the Spurs have been swept by the Lakers in history. Ginobili's injury is an important reason. , many things are also unknown. . . . . .

Ke Yan, a little butterfly flapping its wings, has changed some processes of the alliance; but there are also some things that are still deflected in the original direction.

On January 1, the Eagles received a trade offer. The Grizzlies called and proposed to use Spanish guard Navarro to trade the signing rights of Prigioni and Gasol Jr. of the Grizzlies.

Gasol spent quite a while growing up in Memphis. It can be said that the Grizzlies management knows Gasol's potential best except for Keyan in the league.Now that the team has entered the reconstruction period, it may be a good idea to use Gasol Jr. and Millsap as the core of the team's internal reorganization to exercise.

"Kimi, what do you think?"

Ke Yan has chased Shannon Brown of the Bulls before, and it can be seen that he should have a certain pursuit of improving the team's backcourt impact.David Navarro, nicknamed "Bomb", has both the attacking desire of an American defender and the pass control and shooting of a European defender. It seems to be quite in line with Ke Yan's needs.

"Navarro is willing to go to the Grizzlies, partly because Gasol is here! Now that the Grizzlies have sent Gasol away, he doesn't necessarily want to stay in the NBA. Why do you want such a player?"

Considering that the Eagles are strong inside, even if Gasol joins, he may not be able to play a lot of playing time. In order not to delay the player's development, Ke Yan does not reject sending him away.

The premise is to get a more "appropriate" bargaining chip, at least a draft pick, right?

At the same time, under Ke Yan's suggestion, the Bulls were also drawn into the deal by the Eagles. In addition to Shannon Brown, Sefolosha was also on Keyan's target list. Pay some chips to fight for a "Swiss Army Knife".

"If you hold the No. 13 pick and don't know who to choose, just choose a shooting guard. There is a high probability that you will not be wrong." Since 96, excellent shooting guards that have emerged in this position include Kobe, LaVine , Booker, Mitchell, Hiro and so on.

Sefolosha can't compare with these top-salary names who can even enter the history of the league, but he can be regarded as a qualified lottery pick.For most of his career, he can occupy the starting position of a team as a "defensive champion", and once followed the Thunder to the finals.

That season, Harden won the best sixth man, and it was none other than Sefolosha who served as the starting shooting guard.During the finals, his defense also created a lot of trouble for Wade.But it was also in that finals, because Durant couldn't guard James at all, Sefolosha was forced to push James, who was much heavier than himself, and was eaten alive by the opponent!

No matter how strong a defender is, he has his own type of defense.Leonard is invincible against the front line and can't keep up with the small guards who can switch defenses; Duncan can defend 98% of the inside, but he is often defeated by Stoudemire's face-to-face singles; Antetokounmpo's ability to assist defense, Coverage is the first in historical faults, but it is also difficult to defend big centers all the time;

Similarly, Sefolosha can defend against Kobe and Wade. If you ask him to play against James, that is a joke!

Ke Yan is "thirsty for talent" to Sefolosha, and the Bulls' asking price for him is a mid-first round.Obviously, whether it is the Eagles, Grizzlies, or the Lakers' first-round pick in the hands of the Grizzlies, they can only continue to pull the fourth team to trade.

Hey guys, another great deal!
