In the preseason, the strength gap between the Sonics' starting and bench players was too large, which aroused dissatisfaction among fans.
The team chanted the slogan of defending the title, but there are obvious weaknesses inside, which makes many people who support the Sonics worry. They hope that the management can make a trade as soon as possible and find a big man who can resist others in the free market.
"The SuperSonics have not had a good center for several consecutive seasons. They finally traded P.J. Brown for his outstanding performance last season and then let him go. If this continues, it will be a bad thing."
"There is no substitute for the swingman. The three new players are not as good as Askew. At least Askew has a confrontation, can defend and follow the fast break."
"The SuperSonics must find capable substitutes as soon as possible. If Young and Schrempf are injured, it will definitely affect the record."
Many people can see the flaws in the Sonics' lineup, but substitutes are not so easy to find.
The Sonics and Bulls had this problem last season. The Bulls also failed to reinforce this season. When Jordan and Pippen took a break, the strength of their substitutes was completely incomparable to theirs.
The salaries of both teams have far exceeded the salary cap. They can only sign players with minimum salaries. Where can they find capable substitutes? If the players are capable, they will not get minimum salaries.
SuperSonics managers and scouts also have a headache. Greg Graham and Drew Barry are terrible. Keeping these two people on the team is pure bastards.
After the management meeting, head coach George Karl's suggestions were adopted.
George Karl feels that the team lacks defenders who can break through. Apart from Yang Jian and Payton, no one can break through with the ball. This is a major weakness. The SuperSonics can sign a point guard who can break through and let Snow and McMillan make guest appearances.
Position 2.
Therefore, the SuperSonics manager sent Graham, who signed a non-guaranteed contract, to the Bucks in exchange for point guard Mookie Norris, the No. 33 pick in this year's second round.
The Bucks did not draft Ray Allen due to the butterfly effect and they lacked shooting guards.
Norris is 185cm tall and weighs 79kg. He has no chance to play in the Bucks. He is a point guard who likes to break through with the ball. He was questioned about his low football intelligence when he played in the summer league and preseason games.
George Karl really likes Norris. In a parallel world, he briefly joined the SuperSonics in the 1997-98 season.
Later, Norris joined the Rockets as a substitute and played well. In his peak season, he averaged 8.1 points, 3 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1 steal per game. He was always a substitute and played for 9 seasons before retiring.
In addition, Norris is the pistachio of the Rockets and Yao Ming's first friend after entering the NBA. In a strange environment and facing a completely different culture, it is rare for Yao Ming to have such a friend who is friendly and proactive in communicating.
of.
His afro hair style left a deep impression on Chinese fans, but his playing ability was a bit lacking.
When rigid coach Jeff Van Gundy took charge of the Rockets, Norris's good days came to an end. He played 30 games and was traded to the Knicks, becoming a marginal player ever since.
After reading the news, Yang Jian felt that the deal was not bad. He knew that Norris would definitely be more useful than Graham and Barry but not Moore. If he were to challenge those two shooting guards alone, he would score 100 points every game.
At the end of September, the third season of "Friends" was aired on NBC, and Yang Jian appeared in the third episode.
Yang Jian is very eye-catching when he appears. He is a young Chinese rich man and has a gentle and elegant temperament. The audience feels that he is very different from his usual image.
His character was quickly revealed to the audience. He was mature, steady and majestic in business, and had the playful energy of a young man in life. He used a little trick to get Monica to take the initiative to find him with a check.
His company, and then proposed to have a dinner date with Monica.
After watching this episode, all viewers felt that the situation was a bit subtle and the topic exploded!
Yang Jian often eats with Jennifer Aniston. The two announced that they are good friends and discussed the plot. As a result, Yang Jian and Monica are a couple in the TV series?
Then Yang Jian and Jennifer weren't discussing the script. Their scripts didn't match up at all. Looking at Rachel's attitude towards Peter Chu, it doesn't look like a love triangle can develop in the TV series.
Anyone who has paid attention to the scandal between the two feels that their relationship is very unusual. So the question is, the relationship between Yang Jian and Drew Barrymore is almost real. Is Jennifer trying to take advantage of Barrymore?
Or maybe Yang Jian fell in love with someone but didn't say anything about having a girlfriend, and deceived America's sweetheart with her sweet words?
Many people think that this is not a love triangle, and that Yang Jianba is a playboy. Could it be that Jennifer and Barrymore are also best friends?
Due to people's curiosity, the box office of "Fifty First Dates" was not low when it was released. Many viewers of Friends will watch it to see some clues. Who doesn't like celebrity gossip?
Yang Jian will appear in every episode thereafter, mainly opposite Monica, and also have some interactions with the other five people.
Peter Chu is very elegant, humorous in conversation, and can show off his wealth. The five friends all think that Monica should be with him and she would be very happy.
Monica has no confidence in her age and is afraid that the other person is just playing around and not serious, so she doesn't dare to be with Peter Zhu. Peter uses a little trick to make Monica mistakenly think that he is going to have a different relationship.
He was jealous, and then he told the truth, and the two became lovers smoothly.
The ratings of the third season of "Friends" exploded again, even higher than those of the second season. Yang Jian's guest appearance became a highlight of the show, attracting many basketball fans to watch it, and then fell in love with it out of hand.
This drama.
Yang Jian was interviewed by reporters during the preseason and talked about his thoughts on appearing on the scene: "It feels amazing when I watch myself perform. It's like watching another person, like myself in a parallel world."
Entertainment news gave Yang Jian unanimous praise, saying that he played the role very well. Although the role was not particularly funny, he successfully portrayed an upper-class elite and a very charming Asian handsome guy.
The audience also felt that Yang Jian's acting skills were very natural, and he looked like a professional actor rather than an NBA star. The Yang fans were very excited and felt that the idol was too strong. If he could perform well in TV series, he would definitely be able to do movies as well.
At this time, everyone was still curious about a question. Peter Chu is so perfect and loves Monica so much, how could they break up? How stupid would Monica have to be to break up with such a man?
The most important thing is that the other protagonists also support Monica's relationship and like Peter very much. But Yang Jian will definitely not be able to become a permanent character because he has no time to film.
At the end of the NBA preseason, the plot happened to come to a very funny episode. Yang Jian was on vacation, and she ate crayfish and watched the show with Naomi Watts at home.
This episode started with a lot of baggage. Several friends gathered in the coffee shop to chat as usual. Monica walked into the coffee shop anxiously.
The moment she opened her mouth was the explosive point. "Peter wants to break up with me."
"What?" Rachel and Phoebe, who were sitting on the sofa, turned to look at her and asked together.
Monica said uneasily: "I just heard the phone message. He said 'we have to talk' when he came back from Atlanta."
"Then what?" everyone asked.
"That's it." Monica gestured nervously with her hands: "No one would casually say, 'We have to talk', unless it's something bad." (Barry Allen, the Tackle Man of Star City, expressed disbelief)
Joey smiled and said, "Wow, that doesn't necessarily mean he wants to break up with you."
Monica relaxed a little. "Really?"
Joey said, "Yeah, maybe he was just unfaithful to you."
The audience laughed in the TV series, and Naomi sighed: "Maybe he was just discussing the script with Barrymore in a high-end hotel in Atlanta."
Yang Jian just wanted to speak, but Naomi stuffed a lobster into her mouth.
After that, the six of them went to Pete's house together and made a joke. Joey found that Pete wrote a check for 50,000 yuan for Hugo Linge's ring design. Rachel excitedly shouted: "Monica is going to marry a billionaire."
A rich man."
Ross was also very excited: "Call mom quickly, call mom! Call mom!"
At this time, a video appeared on the TV wall, Peter's mother's phone was answered, and everyone fell down and hid together.
When they returned to the apartment, Rachel said excitedly: "Monica, you must have a theme wedding. The theme can be... look how rich we are!"
Several people followed the gag, and the audience thought that Peter was proposing.
