While Wang Jun was training for the national team, several big-name players in the 2003 NBA class renewed their contracts ahead of schedule.

Anthony stayed in Denver for 80 million in 5 years and failed to make the All-Star Game. The Nuggets management still recognized his strength.

James renewed his contract with the Cavaliers for 60 million in three years, plus the last year of his rookie contract, he will become a free agent in 2010, which is two years less than the maximum five-year $80 million conditions that the Cavaliers can provide.

James explained: "We did the renewal study, and depending on the signing method, first renewing the contract and then signing a new contract in four years can give me the most benefits."

In fact, it's not just a matter of income. James is dissatisfied with the team's summer signings. After the arrival of Larry Hughes, it is difficult for the Cavaliers to find a qualified second leader.

James hopes that the team can trade Hughes, but who wants this bad contract? Even if there is a team willing to ask for it, it is very difficult to exchange for a useful person. It is probably another rubbish contract.

He sees problems far away and matures beyond his age, so he leaves a way out for himself. If he can't lead the Cavaliers to win the championship in 2010, he will consider leaving the Cavaliers to join a strong team. He hopes to leave his name in the history of the league. There must be a championship, not a loyal evaluation on a bad team.

Another heavyweight transaction occurred in the East. The Bucks sent point guard tj Ford to Toronto in exchange for Raptors forward Charlie Villanueva.

Ford averaged 12.2 points and a team-high 6.6 assists in 72 games last season after being sidelined for a season and a half with a serious spinal injury. As a high-ranked rookie of the 2003 golden generation, he is very strong, but has potential injuries.

As long as Ford is not injured, the Raptors will definitely rise. And the Bucks will find out in the future that they brought in an undefensive big man. Be cheated.

Then, Wade signed a three-year contract like James, and can become a free agent at the same time in 2010. Considering that the relationship between the two is very good. It attracts infinite reverie.

The fringe point guard Janeiro Pargo was poached by the Eagles, and the Bulls currently have only 9 people who have contracts.

The good news is. Veteran Gary Payton decided to join the Bulls with a veteran's basic salary in order to get a championship ring at the end of his career.

When Jordan was there, Payton and the Bulls were well-known enemies. Now he is forced to join the team and has nowhere to go. He doesn't think he can get the ring if he stays with the Heat, and he failed to follow O'Neal. He doesn't want to regret retiring like Reggie Miller, Karl Malone and others.

The Heat's point guard position has become weaker,

Due to the explosion of salary space. Riley can't dig strongmen in the free market, and his weakness is a foregone conclusion.

After signing Payton, Paxson was no longer in a hurry to sign in the free market.

Ryan Hughes analyzed to Wang Jun that the Bulls will definitely not spend high prices to poach people, but wait until the start of the preseason and choose among those who come to ask for contracts and play in the preseason. strong and weak.

If Lewis renews his contract in the future, plus Chandler's ten million contract, Wang Jun will have a big contract in the third year. If the Bulls want to sign another player with an annual salary of around tens of millions, all other players must have a basic salary.

Therefore, Luol Deng, Hinrich, and David Lee may only have one of them. The Bulls set off a youth storm last season. It's a pity that happiness is short-lived, and benefits are eternal. As a manager, you must think about the future.

In the second half of July, the Chinese men's basketball team began to go out to practice and play warm-up matches.

The men's basketball team has entered the warm-up series since June 10. 2 wins and 1 loss in the China-Australia match, and 2 wins and 4 losses in the Italian Four Nations Invitational Tournament.

This time the French Four Nations Tournament has 2 wins and 1 loss, which is an obvious improvement.

After Wang Jun participated in the joint training, Jonas realized the importance of defending against pick-and-rolls. The 4th position must be fast, and the defense alone cannot limit the opponent's running without the ball. Lost to Italy by 23 points. The 21-point loss to Lithuania is proof.

The Chinese men's basketball team lost 5 games in Europe, and Italy is not the strongest lineup yet. Many problems need to be solved urgently.

It is not necessarily a bad thing for the team to suffer setbacks before the competition, and problems can be found. Work hard to improve in future training and competitions.

Wang Jun chatted with Yunus and suggested that Du Feng and Sun Yue should play small ball tactics, rely on Yao Ming to guard the basket on the inside, and rotate outside to defend three-pointers.

The Chinese team is good at defending the inside line rather than the outside line, and they lost to South Korea in the Asian Games. China's biggest weakness is not that many people say that defenders are afraid of pressing in the frontcourt, but that they are poor at defending against pick-and-rolls.

Wang Jun participated in three games, played very little time, and his performance was extremely eye-catching. When he played against France, he blasted Pietrus, known as the French Jordan, and led the team to victory.

If he doesn't double-team Wang Jun, he will score by himself. If Wang Jun is double-teamed, Wang Zhizhi and Wang Shipeng from the old Wang family will hit three-pointers in a row. Yao Ming was injured in the Rockets and did not participate in the European friendly match in order to maintain his condition. The Chinese team still has reservations.

After the game, the fans believed that the Chinese team's offensive power was much higher than in 2004. How can there be such a fierce attack point on the periphery of Yao Ming? Now no Yao name can beat the European team.

After the French semi-finals, in early August, the Stankovic Cup was held in China again.

Six teams from Greece, Germany, France, Brazil, China, and Australia participated, and this time Yao Ming also made a comeback.

The Chinese team lost to Greece and Brazil, defeated Australia, Germany, and France, and achieved 3 wins and 2 losses. People are even more convinced that this Chinese men's basketball team has super offensive power and is the strongest ever, and they are no longer afraid of European teams.

France has no good way to take Wang Jun this time, and the insider Yao list has an obvious advantage. The two took turns to create singles opportunities for the opponent, attracting double-teams and splitting the ball, and the teammates shot again.

The men's basketball team did not lose two games badly. Against Brazil, Barbosa's speed caused a lot of trouble for China's insiders and beat Liu Wei.

Greece ranked first, but lost a game to France, not too strong to solve.

Yao Ming had the upper hand against the Greek team's "Europe's No. 1 Center" Vasileatis. Wang Jun nicknamed "Bai Kobe", "Kill Bill" Spanoulis, and core shooting guard Diamantidis are even more explosive.

It's just that the No. 1 position was blown out by Papa Lucas so badly that China lost to Greece by 14 points.

Papalukas is known as "the strongest point guard outside the nba", nicknamed "European King", led CSKA Moscow to win the European Championship and the Russian League Championship for many times; he is the European Basketball League Final Four "Most Valuable Player", European Cup champion and mvp in 2005. The only pity is that this person did not go to the NBA, otherwise his achievements would not be low.

China also played two warm-up games with the United States.

The U.S. roster is full of stars, and Wang Jun and Yao Ming controlled their playing time, and they lost both games quite badly. The good news is that the team has bright spots. The teenager Chen Jianghua performed well with amazing speed. He had a fast break layup from the backcourt, leaving both Paul and Wade behind.

Chen Jianghua's shooting is average and his confrontation ability is poor. At least his speed is very interesting, and he can be used as a surprise soldier. China itself is also talented.

On the 15th, the warm-up and training ended, and the Chinese men's basketball team was preparing to go to Japan.

The 15th Men's Basketball World Championships will kick off on the 19th. The Chinese men's basketball team will face the Italian team for the first time, and then they will face the United States, Puerto Rico, Senegal and Slovenia respectively. The top four in the group will advance to the top 16.
