This Forward is Not Serious

…

Yao Restaurant in Phoenix.

Under Durant's gaze, Lin Ying politely invited the two actresses to dinner.

Then Swift immediately raised her hand to indicate that she wanted to eat Chinese food.

Everyone has an outgoing and adventurous girl in their life, and that's Swift.

And this girl's eyes are particularly beautiful.

The meal was very enjoyable, and with Swift here, there was no need to be left in the dark.

Because when there is a quiet moment, this guy can always find something fun to do.

After dinner, Lin Ying and Durant sent them to the hotel.

Then when he came back from the hotel, Durant already looked sad.

Speaking of which, when he was still in NCAA, Durant was really a standard picker. How could there not be such a thing as a YY actress.

I didn't have the chance before, but now I have met the "goddess" I have sex with. It's normal to be bold.

The result was unexpected, really unexpected!

Selena...already has a boyfriend!

And it’s only this month!

Even that man made Durant feel completely unbeatable.

Justin Bieber!

It’s difficult!

This question is really difficult.

Durant deeply felt the malice of the world.

"Ying, I think Taylor is interested in you!"

After finishing his part, Durant started to worry about Lin Ying again.

To be honest, he thinks that Lin Ying and Swift have complementary looks, temperaments, and personalities, and they look like a perfect match.

"That's not like it, she just lacks love and wants to make more friends, and..."

Lin Ying paused as he spoke.

"And what?"

"I don't have any thoughts about relationships right now."

Lin Ying nodded as he spoke, confirming himself.

For him now, having just experienced a failed relationship, one more friend with whom he can chat is obviously more useful than one more girlfriend.

…

The All-Star Game is over, and then comes the annual trade deadline.

There have been so many rumors before that it’s dizzying.

One piece of news attracted great attention from the outside world.

It's not Oden who has been rumored a lot before, but Deron.

When Deron was interviewed by reporters after the All-Star Game, he expressed his willingness to play with Lin Ying!

There is an unspoken rule that All-Star players will recruit each other during the All-Star Game.

Especially this year, the Knicks have formed a Big Three lineup, which makes many other players ready to move.

So when this news was released, the outside world thought that Lin Ying was recruiting Delong.

After all, Nash is there at his age, and Deron is at his peak.

But the fact is that Lin Ying basically spent this weekend with Durant, except for having a meal with Swift and the others.

So what the outside world thinks is outrageous.

If you want to say that his recruitment of Durant is still serious, recruiting Deron is as outrageous as the news about Barbosa cheating on Nash.

Moreover, he has such a good relationship with Nash. If Nash is not in good condition, he is more likely to help Nash get out of trouble. How could he want to trade Nash away.

In fact, Suns fans will not approve of this deal. Nash is already a totem of Phoenix.

In the blink of an eye, the transaction deadline came, and many transactions were officially concluded on this day, among which the biggest transactions were:

1. Perkins takes over in Oklahoma City.

The Thunder sent Jeff Green and Krstic and acquired Perkins and Nate Robinson from the Celtics.

This deal is the same as in history, and has been questioned by many people.

But purely from a transaction perspective, both Green and Krstic are the Thunder's starters this season, and the Thunder have also spent a lot of money.

Both sides get what they need.

2. Wallace was sent to New Jersey.

The Nets sent Outlaw, Sasha Vujacic and a future draft pick to acquire Gerald Wallace.

When the Bobcats made the playoffs for the first time in team history last year, what the team did this year was to first send away Chandler and then sell Wallace.

And it was directly exchanged for a first-rounder, a standard bargain sale.

Asked which NBA team is the best at splitting teams, the Charlotte Bobcats asked...

3. Deron moves to New Jersey.

This transaction is similar to that in history, which shows that even in history, it was not Deron's wish to go to the Nets.

After Sloan left, the Jazz's record began to decline visibly. The Jazz management finally chose to send Deron to New Jersey to start rebuilding.

In order to acquire Deron, the Nets paid Devin Harris, Derrick Favors, Damai James and a future draft pick.

The difference between this deal and history is that one of the first-round replacements was Damai James.

After two forwards from the University of Texas competed, Jimmy Butler finally won and became the team's starting small forward.

But what is also different from history is that because he did not play under Thibodeau, Butler's defense did not look that good.

Besides, the Nets have successively traded two former team bosses, and the Russian Prokhorov is also a player who is willing to invest heavily in the team.

4. Oden joins Phoenix.

The Suns sent Caron Butler, a future second-round pick, and acquired Oden and Jalen Collins from the Trail Blazers.

(Collins already went to the Trail Blazers from the Jazz in a previous trade)

Because Lin Ying changed to small forward, and McGrady performed surprisingly well, Butler's position became a bit awkward after Lin Ying returned.

What? Butler's spirit last season inspired the entire Suns team?

Management: Wasn’t that what happened last season?

The cruelty and business of the NBA are also here.

The Suns finally got what they wanted and got Oden.

But this process is actually not as smooth as the results seem.

Because during this process, Sarver interfered in the team's transactions as he did in the past.

He didn't want to trade Butler for Oden.

It's not that he thinks Butler has made a big contribution, but because according to the current team salary situation, even if the Suns let Butler go next season, they will still need to pay nearly 15 million in luxury tax!

Although Lin Ying was injured and didn't play for two months, his current performance has a good chance of getting a maximum salary in the free market. His starting salary will be close to 15 million.

But eventually Cole convinced Sarver.

Because with the current state of the Suns' game, it will be too difficult to defend the title if they don't make trades and reinforcements.

Especially with the Knicks' current operations one after another, the team's strength continues to increase.

Sarver was reluctant and had no choice, because all the money that should have been spent before was spent. If he failed to defend his title, it would be all in vain.

5. Knicks.

The Knicks didn’t make any deal!

As the game progressed, the Knicks' lineup began to change.

Their current starting lineup has become James, Wade, Wilson Chandler, Gallinari, and Bosh.

Does it look familiar? This was D'Antoni's favorite run-and-gun game in the Suns.

But after doing so, the Knicks' bench became noticeably weaker.

Reinforcement is an inevitable choice, but the Knicks currently have too limited chips!

In addition to the rookie contract and basic salary, the only remaining players are Turiaf and Gooden, but these two have no trading value at all now.

What's even worse is that too many first-round picks were given away in order to make the Big Three famous. It is very difficult for them to use the contracts of the two and the draft picks.

But the good news is that with Chandler entering the starting lineup, last year's second-round pick Landry Fields performed well.

In addition, Tony Douglas on the back line is also a master of chaos, and D'Antoni likes to use the 8-man rotation method, which is barely enough.

Whether it's Miami or New York, the first year of a Big Three lineup is relatively the toughest.

…

When he heard about the team's trade, Lin Ying had a complicated mood.

First, because he has a close relationship with Butler, and coupled with Kobe's relationship, they are even considered good friends.

But now the guy who gave him one more phone call to celebrate has been traded away.

And this deal is indeed a deal to strengthen the Suns, and you can't say "business is just business".

The second is because of Oden.

He and Oden had a big battle in NCAA, and later Tang Tian and Yang Shuyi got to know each other because of Oden.

It seems that the two of them have a lot of bonds.

Now that I'm teammates with Oden, things are still very interesting.

If it is three, it has something to do with the previous life.

At that time, a topic that was mentioned by many people was whether Oden could be saved after joining the Suns.

Is there any help?

Lin Ying doesn’t know either.

Only time can tell the answer to what has never happened.

But judging from the management's decision, they still have confidence in Oden.

In other words, Dr. Carter is confident in treating Oden.

On the first day after the trade deadline, everyone in the Suns bid farewell to Butler.

Most people feel reluctant to give up.

The experience of last season made Butler's story known to more people, and also allowed him and the Suns players to know that he was not a thorn in the side, and they formed a friendship.

Now that he is gone, most people are naturally reluctant to part with him.

"Caron, take it easy when you go to Portland."

Lin Ying said jokingly while hugging Butler.

Although it was a joke, it was also true.

In history, Gerald Wallace went to the Trail Blazers this season. The result was neither embarrassing nor embarrassing. He was sent away by the Trail Blazers after one season.

The fundamental reason is that Wallace is the forward swingman, and the Trail Blazers have Batum and Aldridge at these two positions. As a result, it would be embarrassing to trade an All-Star to play as a substitute.

But Butler is a swingman, and he is obviously much more experienced than Matthews, and can give the Trail Blazers more help in the playoffs.

So if Butler goes, he is expected to get a lot of playing time, which will be better than his current situation with the Suns.

Of course the only problem is the Blazers "vet" he calls them.

Butler has suffered a serious injury now, and his career could easily be ruined if he is really messed up.

Butler nodded, and he also got the deep meaning in Lin Ying's smile.

Two days later, Oden passed his physical and arrived in the Suns locker room.

What a vicissitude!

Although Lin Ying has played against the Trail Blazers a lot in the past few years, Oden often wears suits and doesn't wear a suit, so he doesn't pay much attention to it.

Now looking back at the scene during the draft, it turns out that four years can make a person change so much.

But when he saw Lin Ying, Oden was also very happy. He smiled and hugged him.

Lin Ying also played the role of a middleman at this time, introducing Oden to everyone on the Suns.

If he does this, Oden's integration in the Suns will be much smoother.

While they were chatting, Dr. Carter came in to see Auden.

Oden turned to look at Lin Ying, who also followed him out.

Doctor Carter didn't say anything. He was already very familiar with Lin Ying.

He led the two of them to the medical center, and Lin Ying discovered that James Zhou was also there.

They were looking for Oden, naturally, about Oden's knee injury.

It was a familiar scene. After Zhou Zai motioned Oden to lie down and check, he soon discovered the problem of leg length.

Then there’s some communication.

What Lin Ying never expected was that the Blazers' team doctor didn't believe Tang Tian before!

The veterinarian is convinced!

But the good thing is that Oden trusts Tang Tian very much, so he has been using foot pads in the past four years.

This is also the reason why his current injury situation is much better than expected.

There was an episode in the middle where Zhou actually became interested in Tang Tian.

At the end of the conversation, Dr. Carter also said that he and Zhou were preparing a treatment, or a plan for Oden's knee injury.

First, continue to use foot pads, but they will use materials with better cushioning properties. After all, this is NASA’s medical team.

Second, they will conduct targeted training on Oden's tight hip muscles to relax them, just like they did with O'Neal.

This may sound a bit strange, but the fact is that after learning that Oden's short legs were caused by hip surgery when he was a child, they have determined that Oden's hip muscles are in a state of chronic tension, which makes him The force exerted is more uneven, which also increases the risk of injury.

Third, they will train Oden in a targeted way to exert force so that he can minimize or even avoid landing on one knee during the game.

Fourth, they will propose that the team strictly control Oden's playing time to about 25 minutes. This is a method that can maximize the number of games he plays.

fifth,……

There is a lot of content.

And, professional enough.

Not to mention Oden, after listening to this, Lin Ying even more recognized that his team doctor is a super assistant in the medical field, which can be compared to the existence of Grover in the training field.

As for Auden himself, he nodded while listening.

By the end, Lin Ying saw that the circles under his eyes were a little red.

This is also understandable.

Previously in Portland, Oden was the No. 1 pick, but the team valued him more for his performance on the court and his performance that made the outside world no longer question him.

As for injuries, more conservative treatment is chosen.

To put it more bluntly, it means ignoring small problems and fixing big ones later.

Although the doctors who operated on him were actually very professional, when it came to injuries, prevention was the first priority, rather than remediation after injury.

So he was very frustrated and depressed.

But now, he has lost his aura as the No. 1 pick, but the Suns have still done so much for him.

This feeling is like you are used to eating dregs, and suddenly one day you are told that there is big fish and meat for lunch, and it has been put on the table.

You won't help but want to cry!

"I have a question."

At the end, Auden choked up uncontrollably.

"Don't I need surgery?"

Because he has had too many surgeries, he is now a little bit "talkative".

"Operation?"

Dr. Carter was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile and said in a gentle tone,

"No, we don't usually do that."
