Super Legendary Superstar

Chapter 431 New season!

Boston, Celtics press conference.

The Celtics suddenly and quietly formed the Big Three and became the most luxurious team in the league. Media reporters also swarmed in. It stands to reason that they should be very happy, but the faces of each of these people were full of tears. No laughter, everything was very serious.

Perhaps due to his personality, Celtics head coach Rivers still faced the media with a majestic look: "When we were trying to move forward in the league, we found it difficult to rely on young players, so we got Kevin Garnett, he is the most complete player in the league, he does his best every game, and no one in the league can match him in terms of driving the team, passion and desire to win."

Kevin Garnett also looked very serious when facing reporters: "I am very excited to be a member of the Celtics and have the opportunity to play with Paul and Ray Allen. This feeling is really wonderful, Kevin The Erte people have a great tradition, and we must continue the legend. The time left for us is not too much, and we must start a great journey immediately!"

Garnett is 31 years old, and Ray Allen and Paul Pierce are no longer young. Facing the threats of Sun Zhuo, James, Wade and others, they must seize the current peak time and cannot miss a championship!

After the trade, LeBron James of the Cavaliers couldn't sit still.

"It's so shameless. These three people actually got together!" James was very angry. He originally heard that Howard was traded away. He was still very happy. He thought that this season, he might win the regular season MVP and become the number one player in the Eastern Conference. team.

However, the Celtics have formed a luxurious Big Three team, with Garnett, Pierce and Ray Allen. Needless to say, it is already a team that can compete for the championship. James' Cavaliers are in the Eastern Conference again. It's cold.

"I thought I had a high probability of advancing to the finals next season, but now it's difficult again... God is too harsh on me. Even Michael Jordan has never encountered such an environment in the past few years, right?"

At this time, Kevin Durant, who was in Washington, was equally melancholy.

"I didn't expect that as soon as I joined the NBA, I would change teams and be traded to a team with Sun. I would actually be teammates with Eric Sun..."

Durant has had mixed feelings these past two days. If he were with the SuperSonics, he could become a leader from the beginning and then hone himself. But when he comes to the Orlando Magic, everyone knows that it is Sun Zhuo's team. If you go there, you can only be the second boss.

Moreover, due to Christian Ledlow's relationship, Durant has always been jealous of Sun Zhuo. He doesn't want to be friends with Sun Zhuo at all, but wants to be his opponent.

"If I go to the Orlando Magic, it means that I will compete for the championship in my first season in the league! If I were in the SuperSonics, I may not have such an opportunity in five or six years! Maybe I should become optimistic. One point, after all, the championship is more important than anything else, and I will definitely surpass Sun in the future!"

The major transactions in the league, especially the formation of the Big Three by the Celtics, made the stars of each team become restless. Only Sun Zhuo was not surprised and continued to do things as usual.

He had known for a long time that the Celtics would form the Big Three, and he did not want to prevent this incident from happening. Sun Zhuo just wanted to see if he could pass this test in the Eastern Conference.

Without Howard, Sun Zhuo alone would definitely not be able to do it, but he got Kevin Garnett and a 2008 SuperSonics first-round pick. This most likely represents Westbrook, that is, Said that they traded Howard for Durant and Westbrook.

At the end of August, Kobe and James went to Las Vegas to participate in the American Men's Basketball Championship. Due to the results of the World Championships and Olympic Games in the past few years, the American Basketball Association formed a team with Kobe in order to prove the strength of American basketball to the world. , James and others' luxurious army, by the time of the 2008 Olympics, they will challenge the world in BJ.

Sun Zhuo also returned to China and played two games in the Asian Men's Basketball Championship. It was like playing in an exhibition match. His opponents didn't want to win at all. After losing, they asked Sun Zhuo to take photos and sign autographs.

Today, the strength of the Chinese men's basketball team is no longer what it used to be. There are four players in the NBA, including Sun Zhuo, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, and Sun Yue. Although Wang Zhizhi no longer plays in the United States, he still has the strength of the NBA.

The only thing that can threaten the Chinese men's basketball team is the luxurious American "Dream Team."

Summer passed quickly, and the subprime mortgage crisis began to occur in the United States. Soon, the price of gold held by Sun Zhuo would rise rapidly, and his wealth would grow even further.

Sun Zhuo did not pay too much attention to these issues and always focused on basketball. When wealth reaches a certain level, no matter how much you have, you will feel numb. But basketball is different. Every season makes Sun Zhuo excited.

The 2007-08 season is very critical for Sun Zhuo. All great stars have completed three consecutive championships. Three consecutive championships is also a symbol of a star's dominance. Sun Zhuo wants to achieve this achievement, even without the help of Howard. .

In the new season, Sun Zhuo also has a new star teammate Kevin Durant, and he also wants to know what it will be like to partner with Durant.

It's already October, the new season is about to begin, and the Magic team has all gathered together for training for the first time.

The team coach has been replaced by Stan Van Gundy from Brian Hill. Brian Hill should have resigned as the Magic coach long ago. On the one hand, he is already very old, and on the other hand, he has not maintained the relationship between Sun Zhuo and Howard. .

Stan Van Gundy is a disciple of Pat Riley, but he also has some unclear grudges with Pat Riley. During the 2003-04 season, Pat Riley handed over the coach due to health reasons, giving Stan Van Gundy his first The opportunity came to the front desk and said to him: "I have prepared the best lineup for you, it is time for Miami to make a comeback!"

At that time, no one was optimistic about how good the lineup of Wade, Odom, and Caron Butler was. After Van Gundy took over, the record was mediocre, and it could barely be considered a trend of making a comeback.

After that, Pat Riley combined O'Neal and Wade, but made his own decision to take charge because Van Gundy's body did not allow him to be the head coach.

"Coach Van Gundy." Sun Zhuoye first greeted the new coach.

Van Gundy is obese and wears glasses. He also gives the kindest smile to Sun Zhuo. Compared to Coach Hill, he is a very tempered person, but when he comes to the Magic team, he has the same attitude when facing Sun Zhuo. Don't dare to neglect.

Moreover, Sun Zhuo is the person with the highest status in the team and is greater than the coach. This will not change.

Who makes Sun Zhuo a superstar?

"Sun, we will definitely work together to have a perfect season in the new season. We are determined to win three consecutive championships." Van Gundy shook Sun Zhuo's hand and assured Sun Zhuo that he would work hard to complete three consecutive championships, although he also knew that this was very difficult. difficulty.

Sun Zhuo nodded, and then looked at the whole team. There was no longer the often funny Howard, but there were also newcomers like Kevin Durant and Marc Gasol.

Sun Zhuo first walked towards Durant and extended his hand to welcome Durant: "Kevin, you are very welcome to join the Magic. You are the best player in this rookie class. Even if someone trades Greg Oden for you, I won't agree either. You will definitely like it here. Our team is a very happy and loving team. Everyone will help you and treat you well. Don't think that you are a newcomer and we will bully you. You, or let you do things like serving tea and water, these things will not happen here, we will give you the best growing environment."

After Durant came to Orlando, he was very worried and afraid of facing Sun Zhuo. Now when he heard Sun Zhuo's words, he almost burst into tears with excitement on the spot. He didn't expect that Sun Zhuo turned out to be such a good leader! Maybe Durant had wrongly blamed him before, maybe Sun Zhuo was just ruthless to his opponents and only loved and cared for his own people!

"Sun, thank you..." Durant thanked him excitedly.

But who knows, at this time Sun Zhuo said to Durant: "You're welcome, Kevin, after discussion between the coach and I, when the new season starts, you have to start as a substitute."

"What? Playing as a substitute?" Durant's enthusiastic and excited heart suddenly turned cold. He is the second pick. He is the best rookie besides Oden. If he is in the SuperSonics, let alone the starter, he will be the first. The field is the boss of the team! When I get here, it doesn't matter if I can't be the boss. You won't even let me be the starter?

Seeing Durant's displeasure, Turkoglu patted Durant on the shoulder and said, "Man, don't be depressed. Sun joined the league as a substitute. This does not prevent you from becoming a superstar in the future."

Durant's anger was still unabated. When Sun Zhuo first entered the league, he hid his abilities. No one knew how good he was. Of course he was a substitute, and he was just pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. But he used all his abilities and talent are all on display!

At this time, Sun Zhuo said: "I know you may be a little unwilling. In this way, you can choose one of the five starting positions to challenge. As long as you win the one-on-one match, you can be the starter."

"One-on-one?" Durant's gloomy eyes immediately brightened up, and he said to himself: "Except for Sun, I can win against these five starting players!"

Durant's eyes began to wander around Sun Zhuo and others, and he glanced at Turkoglu, who smiled confidently in his eyes.

"This guy Turkoglu looks cunning and difficult to deal with."

He glanced at Monta Ellis again. Ellis crossed his arms over his chest and seemed not to be afraid of Durant.

"Monta Ellis was so crazy last season that you could really lose if you challenge him."

Sun Zhuo, Turkoglu, and Monta Ellis are Durant's confirmed starters. Durant doesn't know who the other two are.

"Huh? Who is the starting center? It should be the newly added Marc Gasol, right? Or Paul Millsap? No matter which one it is, if I challenge them one-on-one, I will definitely win."

Durant thought to himself, with a confident smile on his face: "I want to challenge the starting center."

"Challenge the starting center, right? Come on, let's get started." Who knows, after listening to Durant's words, it was Sun Zhuo who answered!

Durant was stunned on the spot: "You play center?"

Sun Zhuo had already picked up the ball and said: "Is it weird? We won the second championship because I played center in the seventh game of the finals. Next season, I will definitely play the center position occasionally. .”

Durant was completely confused. Is there any need to fight? Definitely losing, Durant said again: "Then I challenge the starting PF."

"Power forward, right? Come on, it's me too." Sun Zhuo took the ball and took a step forward.

Durant was confused again: "What?"

"Hahahaha..." When the other players saw this, they were already laughing. Sun Zhuo had just said that he would not bully Durant, but he turned around and started teasing him.

Durant also knows that Sun Zhuo is playing with him. If he can play center and power forward, let alone the other three positions. No matter which position Durant challenges, it will be Sun Zhuo!

This is completely targeted! What about happiness and love that we promised? What about being kind to the newcomers you promised?

Stan Van Gundy saw this, smiled, walked towards Durant, and said: "Kevin, it is my arrangement for you to be a substitute. Sun is just joking with you. The Magic are different from the Sonics. We are the championship." Team, if you want to become the starting player of the championship team, you need a period of growth. Don't worry, with your talent and adaptability, I believe it won't be long before you have the ability to assume the starting position."

Only then did Durant understand what Van Gundy and Sun Zhuo meant. After all, they still didn't believe in what Durant had before. If Durant wants to be respected by the Magic, he must rely on his performance in the NBA. Just strive for it little by little.

"Okay, I will prove my worth soon!" The skinny Durant looked at Coach Van Gundy and Sun Zhuo with powerful eyes.

Sun Zhuo also smiled. He just hopes to continue to stimulate Durant and inspire Durant to grow rapidly. After all, Durant is a bug-level scoring machine. To a certain extent, even Sun Zhuo cannot compare with him. Once Durant Special growth, what if there is no center?

Two super scoring machines, who in the league can guard them?

Soon, the new season, the 2007-2008 season, will officially begin! Sun Zhuo and the Magic also started their journey to win three consecutive championships!

On October 31, 2007, the Magic ushered in the first game of the new season at home. This was also a Chinese derby. The opponent was the Bucks with Yi Jianlian.

The first moment he walked into the Magic's home court, Yi Jianlian felt a little dizzy. This was his first time playing in the NBA and he was very nervous. Standing on the court and looking up at the two championship banners, Yi Jianlian felt the greatness of Sun Zhuo. , he also wanted to do the same thing as Sun Zhuo.

"YI! Come on Yi Jianlian!"

There were actually Chinese people at the scene cheering for Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian responded with a smile to the unknown audience on the sidelines, and unconsciously glanced in the direction of Sun Zhuo, thinking to himself: "I don't know if what Sun Zhuo said on the phone yesterday is true..."

Awesome, Zhanzhan! Another kill!
