After chatting about the CBA, Ke Yan and Yao Ming also talked about a recent major event in the NBA. The owner of the New Jersey Nets, Bruce Ratner, intends to sell the team.

The Nets have been losing money year after year, and have not won a single game so far this season. They have suffered a 10-game losing streak. The current situation of the team can be said to have sunk to the bottom. The market value of the team itself is only about 2.3 million U.S. dollars.

But there is a huge "burst point" in the operation of this team, that is, the team will move to New York in 12 and settle in the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.If the team can gain a foothold in New York and get a share in the center of the world, the team's business prospects are limitless.

In fact, as early as when he left the Eagles, Ke Yan had considered the possibility of acquiring the Nets.But after liquidating his assets, he still gave up the idea of ​​"overreaching his own capabilities".

Currently, Ke Yan holds a considerable number of stocks in Google and Apple, as well as hundreds of bitcoins.The total market capitalization is about 2 million US dollars, which will be enough to complete the acquisition, but the ability to operate and resist risks in the later stage is too poor. After all, Keyan itself does not have its own industry, and the source of assets is mostly stocks and currencies. Such a property distribution is difficult. Approved by the alliance.Not to mention that his status as a Chinese is also a "point deduction".

Unless he finds a consortium to cooperate, or expands his property to a larger number, enough to bear a certain loss, it is really not easy to acquire the Nets.

But Ke Yan's own plan is to buy an NBA team to operate independently, and cooperate with the consortium, and it is easy for them to eat up all the bones through their best financial plan.so. . . . . .Or wait for other opportunities in the future.

Anyway, in the next few years, including the Warriors, Hornets, Kings, Clippers, Bucks, 76ers, and Grizzlies, there will be a change of boss. Even later, the Miller family shot the Jazz, the Nets, etc. Even resale.Ke Yan still has many opportunities.

. . . . . .

On November 11, the Knicks visited Toronto to challenge the Toronto Raptors, the king of the North.

Before the start of the season, the Raptors were once expected to become the third pole in the Eastern Conference besides the Cavaliers and Magic.

The team lineup is complete, Mike Bibby, DeRozan, Lewis, Bosh, Kwame Brown's lineup is quite capable of playing; on the bench, the team also has Bayless, Barbosa, Sony Weems, Ed A group of players with certain strengths such as Davis, Amir Johnson, and Bargnani have both the strength of the starting lineup and the depth of the bench lineup.

However, after the real fight, the results of the Raptors did not match the strength of their lineup. They also played to critical moments many times. 2 wins and 5 losses in games within 0 points, exposing his weakness of not being good at key shots.

Mike Bibby's autonomous offensive ability has declined, and he is shifting to the direction of the floor flow point guard; DeRozan is just a dunker with no shooting range at all, and Kwame Brown himself is a blue-collar who improves the team's internal defensive hardness. Don't move; the team's offense relies more on Lewis and Bosh, which can be said to be enough in the East, but certainly not particularly strong.

The start of the game only achieved a record of 4 wins and 6 losses. The Raptors adjusted the team's starting lineup in this game. Brazilian Lightning Barbosa replaced Mike Bibby and entered the team's starting lineup.

Coincidentally, Ke Yan also made changes to the Knicks' starting lineup. After several rounds of weighing, Ke Yan placed Matthews in the starting lineup for this game.

Considering that Holiday is Keyan's key player, the position of "sixth man" is difficult to shake. That is to say, Larry Hughes fell directly out of the team's regular rotation and became a drinking fountain.

For Larry Hughes, who has performed well since the start of the game and scored in double figures 10 times in 7 games, this decision is a bit cruel.But this is competitive sports, and it is also Keyan's team leadership rule, namely "survival of the fittest".

Matthews showed that he is suitable for Curry. His immediate combat power is not like a rookie, let alone undrafted.Holiday represents the future of the team. If there is no difference in strength between two people with similar styles, the younger one must be more popular.Larry Hughes on the bench resisted a little, but he knew that he couldn't change anything.

The adjustments of Ke Yan and Sam Mitchell also had completely different effects.

Larry Hughes was put into the freezer, Matthews started in the top position, Curry got more ball possessions, and his performance on the court became more comfortable.

Although he has a strong off-ball movement, Curry's offense with the ball is more lethal than catching and shooting!

The Brazilian Lightning has a faster speed, but basketball has never been a track and field sport. The core strength of completing movements in a small space is far more important than the speed of running with your feet!A random step adjustment by Curry can throw off Barbosa by a certain distance, and get a good shot space.

Compared with Bibby, who has already declined, Barbosa drained more water after leaving Nash.Apart from speed, Barbosa's other advantages are not obvious. He is not effective when shooting, and he is not able to break through and cause damage when encountering tough defenses, and he does not have very good organizational skills.

It can only be said that people who shine beside Nash may not necessarily perform well in other teams, including Marion, Big Q, and Barbosa. The only exception is Joe Johnson who was dug by Keyan.

Curry killed all directions on the outside, and even benefited other teammates in all aspects. This is Curry's imagination on the offensive end.Basically, when he opens up this point, his teammates can get a good offensive environment.

101:119, the Knicks won away.After the three-game losing streak, they quickly recovered and returned to the third position in the Eastern Conference.

Curry sent out a wonderful performance of 34 points and 6 assists. From the perspective of a month's performance, he has already secured the title of the best rookie of the month in November, and he is also the top rookie in the rookie rankings.

Matthews, who started in the top position, played quite well in this game.Played 33 minutes, scored 8 points, 2 rebounds and 7 steal on 3 of 1 shots. The statistics are relatively average.However, this may be due to excessive excitement. Throughout the game, he was very active on the defensive end. Whether it was against DeRozan or switching against Lewis, he showed his tough defense, which is another way to add points to himself.

A sentence that Ke Yan often talks about is "In a game, you can only hold the ball for 12 minutes at most, but the 36 minutes you don't hold the ball determine what kind of player you are!" This is also another way he judges players. angle.

On the team's plane back to New York from Toronto, Larry Hughes found Ke Yan and asked how the team positioned him.

This is not forcing the palace, but worrying about his own future.After all, this season is the contract year of Larry Hughes. He needs good performance to win the amount of the next contract for himself, instead of sitting on the bench, lying down to win a salary, and then gradually fade out of the NBA stage.

"Larry, I can probably understand what you mean. But you understand the situation of the team, maybe you are destined to give up your position to young people. But I appreciate your career, I know, in this summer , You started training early in order to enter the state as soon as possible in the new season. In return, I can give you the greatest degree of respect. I can put you on the trading list, provided that you get chips that meet our needs; if If you want to leave before the trade deadline, we can negotiate a buyout, but correspondingly, you may need to give up part of your salary; of course, if you are willing to accept the position of a substitute, I welcome you to stay in the team, after all Nick In addition to vitality, the Sri Lanka team still needs some experience."

Keyan handed over the choice to Larry Hughes himself.Trade, do not accept long-term junk contracts; buyout, Larry Hughes must give up part of his salary, the Knicks can just cut costs; stay on the team, just honestly serve as a substitute.

After all, Larry Hughes can serve as point guard and shooting guard. In case the team suffers an injury, he can still step up, so Ke Yan didn't say anything.

The plan given by Ke Yan was quite comprehensive. Larry Hughes nodded, accepted Ke Yan's words, and felt very entangled in his heart.

I probably know my own situation.In the past few years, he has been "displaced" and changed teams everywhere, coupled with frequent injuries, he has long been labeled with some not-so-good labels, that is, he has played at a certain level under Ke Yan this season.If you choose to buy out, the best situation is to join a championship team with a basic salary; if you are unlucky. . . . . .Maybe you have to try out and find a job.

Therefore, the most ideal situation is "trading". It doesn't matter if the team is strong or weak.

Let Larry Hughes and his agent bother about all of this~

. . . . . .

Back in New York, the Knicks ushered in a challenge from the 76ers.Speaking of the 76ers, it's really messing around.

In the "post-Iverson" era, the team has clearly completed the reconstruction, including Felton, Iguodala, Gerald Wallace, Thaddeus Young, Braden Wright, and Louis Williams. The young talents have obviously supported half the sky of the team. As a result, the team management was "tired", and brought back Iverson, who was "homeless" after leaving the Pistons, thinking about signing with a basic salary. Going back to Iverson to stimulate the ball market, if the effect is not good, the big deal is that Iverson will be laid off again.

As a result, Iverson returned to the 76ers, and after kissing the floor, he turned the world upside down again.The first is "moral kidnapping". Felton gave up his starting position and resumed his "big core with the ball" style of play on the court. set.How could it be possible to lay him off!

As for the "defensive counterattack" system created by the team in the past two seasons, it has basically been broken up!

In itself, all members of the 76ers team are extremely mobile, and can even play the effect of "unlimited defense", which has a great restraint effect on the Knicks, especially Curry. in an ant's nest".On the contrary, Shaquille O'Neal, when facing Braden Wright and Thaddeus Young, used the advantages of confrontation to frequently open opponents and score at the basket.

It is certain that the big shark will not be as brave as before, and in front of this kind of "limited money" opponent, it can briefly find the feeling of the past.He himself is well aware that his only hope is to get a championship ring at the end of his career, preferably more than Kobe.

111:98，尼克斯队主场击败76人队，取得三连胜。（8-4）

Ke Yan's "glorious history" is here. When the team lost three games in a row, the New York media didn't dare to say anything, for fear of being slapped in the face; when the team won three games in a row, the fans all "climaxed", and Ke Yan won the hero Like carp, he was even arranged to interact with the fans after the game and give them beer.

Whenever Ke Yan made a good glass of beer, it would be directly snatched away by the fans on the three floors inside and outside.There will also be fans booing: "Isn't Kimi's beer particularly delicious?"

Later, Curry and Ayesha also came to the tavern.However, Curry abided by the agreement with Keyan. If it is not necessary during the season, try not to touch alcohol, so Ayesha just had a drink.

"Is our leader cool?" Sitting on a chair and looking at the popular Ke Yan, Curry showed a hint of envy in his eyes.

"Cool! But too controlling." Ayesha used a strange vocabulary.

how to say?So far this season, Curry has played a very wonderful performance.If placed on other teams, there is no doubt that he will become the "king" of this team and the "darling" of the city, just like Rose in Chicago.

But in the Knicks, in New York, it seems that everyone takes Curry's performance for granted. Only when someone emphasizes, "Curry is still a rookie" does everyone realize Curry's performance. How amazing.

Is it because Keyan has cultivated an equally outstanding Paul before?Or is it because Ke Yan is measuring Curry by the standard of "Messi"?

All in all, Curry and Keyan seem to be bound.What's even more strange is that Curry has no discomfort with this.

"Hi, Stephen~" Ke Yan, who was busy, raised his glass to Curry and took a shallow sip.

Curry responded with an "applause" gesture, then hugged Ayesha as if showing off, and showed Ke Yan a wave of affection.
