Chapter 159 Shutdown!invite!
After the finals, there was also news that the NBA may be shutting down.In fact, when the playoffs just started in April this year, the NBA canceled the 4 Las Vegas Summer League and the summer internship program, which are considered to be two signs that the NBA is preparing for the lockout.During the playoffs, the negotiations between the player association and the owner were close to breaking down.
The battle between the players union and the owner is even more exciting than the ongoing NBA playoffs to a certain extent. The economic crisis has forced many owners to choose to invest their dollars in the sports industry. There are doubts.
The hard salary cap, the soft salary cap, and the poor line, these three issues are constantly being debated among the bosses. Of course, not all bosses are refusing to invest. The Lakers and Clippers in Los Angeles have a huge ball market. no worries.
If the hard salary cap is set at the beginning, then the Lakers may only see three people fighting on the court in the future, Kobe Bryant, Andrew Bynum, and Paul Gasol. As for the others, sorry, the salary quota is full.
The Clippers are also unwilling. Their goal is to introduce superstars. Taking advantage of the rookie bonuses of Anson and Blake Griffin, now is the time when they have the most space in their hands.
The ultimate consequence of the dispute is obvious, and that is the lockout.This news also caused an uproar in the country, and An Sheng also smiled wryly. His NBA career has just started and the first year is coming to an end?Many Chinese fans are very excited. The NBA will return to the right track sooner or later. It is not that there have been lockout incidents before, but the NBA, a mature business league, always handles it very quickly.
At this time, many fans of the CBA team are also excited to say that the team can consider introducing Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and other top NBA stars to play in the CBA. Things that were almost unthinkable in normal times are now possible to become reality.
Because many NBA superstars are already considering going abroad to play, and even Deron Williams, the agent of the NBA's top point guard, has begun to contact some European teams.At this time, the CBA is still relatively less attractive than European basketball teams. It is good if they can attract some quasi-star players, but they don't want to let go of a superstar.
Only until July 7rd, An Sheng received invitations from almost every team in the CBA at home, such as his hometown team, the Sharks in Shanghai. This CBA team is the most powerful competitor. Of course, this year's championship Guangdong and the runner-up XJ are also indispensable. They all hope to get Anson to join. Anson's influence in China is estimated to be comparable to that of NBA superstars.
"Leon? What's the situation now? Is it really going to be suspended?" An Sheng immediately called his agent, Leon Rose. As the most famous agent in the NBA, An Sheng's trust in him Still very good.
It's just that Leon Rose didn't bring any good news to An Sheng, and even he could hear that there was some uneasiness in Leon Rose's tone: "An, I can't figure out this now either. What about the season, but what I can guarantee is that the league will not allow the suspension to last for a long time, and the boss will not give up the money he got."
An Sheng immediately understood that this offseason might seem very long. After two consecutive months, there was no progress in the lockout incident. Usually at this time, young players like An Sheng can already participate in the summer league to maintain their own strength. status, and now none of that.
Players such as James Harden and Kobe Bryant frequently appeared in the Drew League in Los Angeles to maintain their status, which feasted the eyes of many fans who had no time or couldn't afford tickets.
And some of these players have even decided to play in overseas leagues, Deron Williams who went to Turkey, and Jr. Smith who is about to sign with the CBA. Things to help myself continue in a good state.
An Sheng was also thinking about where to find himself at this time. Coincidentally, he received a call from Yi Jianlian. The two games against the Wizards last season happened to be arranged together. In those two games, An Sheng also missed two consecutive Chinese derby games and the duel with No. [-] pick John Wall for this reason.
It's just that this year's Wizards didn't get rid of the big hat. As the only core of the Wizards, John Wall's inaccurate long-range shots and unstable mid-range shots are infinitely magnified. Facing the Clippers without Anson, they still It was a two-game losing streak, and the communication between An Sheng and Yi Jianlian off the court was also very friendly. After all, after Yao Ming left, Sun Yue was extremely unstable in the NBA. They may be the only Chinese who can gain a foothold in this league.
"Xiao'an! Do you want to think about coming to Wukesong?" Yi Jianlian's mellow voice sounded on the other end of the phone. The tone was very flat, but what he said was a bit earth-shattering!Wukesong, isn't this the place for the national men's basketball team to warm up and train?And it seems that I have not been called to join the army now!
An Sheng's question was expressed in silence, and Yi Jianlian also saw An Sheng's inner thoughts, and said with a smile: "I didn't ask you to play the game. After all, you know the current policy. I hope you come to be a trainer." , that is, sparring, let this group of lads who joined the national team understand that there are people beyond others, and there is a sky beyond the sky!"
Hearing this sentence, An Sheng laughed all of a sudden. It's not like some masters of every school in a martial arts novel used to invite others to attack their apprentices, so that they can understand what is called Jianghu. It seems to be going to play the bad guy, which sounds really interesting.
An Sheng, who was bored and looking for something to do, immediately agreed to this matter: "No problem, as long as they are not afraid that my defense will make them lose their confidence in the Asian Championships. Then I'm sure I'll be fine."
Yi Jianlian who hung up the phone suddenly became a little worried. Is it right or wrong to make this call to ask An Sheng to come over as a training partner?If it is really like what An Sheng said, there will really be something wrong with him!
