i'm really an insider

Chapter 689 Chapter 686: The real and the fake Carter meet for the first time, the mysterious hunk is coming back (5.3K tickets required)
Vince Carter, in this era when players in 96 have already started to participate in the draft, he is one of the few post-70s in the league, and he is 38 years old this year.

As a half-human, half-god who was once in the limelight, many people have even forgotten that this UFO is still flying in the alliance.

Everyone felt that Carter should choose to retire after the execution of the Mavericks contract.

However, Carter said he has no intention of retiring at all.

He can still play, and he can still enjoy the fun that the game brings to him.

In the Mavericks last season, he can be regarded as a qualified backup wing.

The defense is acceptable, the three-pointer is stable, and he has rich experience.

Occasionally, I can bring everyone a beautiful dunk at the American Airlines Center, and then twist the accelerator of the motorcycle and speed all the way.

Yes, Carter is no longer a star.But as a role player, he did his best.

Carter has no desires now. A few years ago, when he was with Garnett in the Nets, he still had a desire for a championship.

And now, all he wants to do is keep playing.

Carter can't accept it for the time being. He doesn't have to go to the arena to report, and he doesn't have to go to the court to play.

Therefore, after executing the contract with the Mavericks, Carter has been waiting for the next home.

No matter what team, as long as he can play the main rotation and guarantee a stable playing time, he is willing to sign with it.

But Carter never expected that he would sit opposite Wayne.

And Wayne, also revived his desire for honor.

"I'm glad you came, Vince. This time, you can't say no to me."

Wayne said, pushing the freshly brewed tea in front of Carter.

After the draft, Wayne's dream of being the No. [-] pick shattered again, and James kept his biggest advantage.

In the draft, I continue to overwhelm Wayne!
No matter how powerful Wayne is, what's the use?He can't enter our champion circle!
Well, Bennett gave a tearful thumbs up.

Heartbroken, Wayne made a call and asked someone to come and talk with him, so Old Carter sat in the living room of Wayne's house.

When Wayne mentioned the word "reject", Carter felt embarrassed.

Seriously, he's probably the only player in the league who has the guts to say no to Wayne twice.

For the first time, Carter was still at the tail end of the peak at that time, and he still had the strength of the All-Star level, so he still wanted to win by his own strength.

After all, holding a group was not so common in that era.

For the second time, Carter and Harder discussed it, and our two brothers had a final fight.If it doesn't work, change the place to win the championship.

At that time, Hardt snorted softly: Huh!I, Kevin Garnett, as the top five forwards in history, still need to hug my thigh?I am a man of backbone!Even if I want to leave the Nets, I won't hug my thigh!
Hard Special one year later: WGNB!The championship is really delicious!Wayne, my good brother, no one can say anything bad about him!

Carter, on the other hand, was going to be packaged and shipped to Portland with Harder.

But the old Carter saw that the back line of the Trail Blazers was too crowded.Going by myself, I'm afraid it won't become the cornerstone of the atmosphere to form the team.

So he turned around and went to the Mavericks.

Cuban did not lie to Carter. During his time with the Mavericks, Carter has had a very stable playing time.

It also kept him in shape.

So, after all, this is the third time Wayne has recruited Carter.

In today's world, 3D players can be said to be the most valuable.

Take a look at Tangshen, a damn guy who can't even handle a ball, a defender who can only dribble two steps at most.

Even if the bat clause is triggered, even if the 30% maximum salary is required, there are a bunch of teams waiting to take over now, and dogs are all over the league.

Just because he is the top 3D player in the league.

But to be honest, this B price. No, the value of this 3D player was raised by the Blazers themselves.

Because the Blazers can be said to be the first team to eat 3D player bonuses.

Matthews, Thompson, Green.
There are not many good 3D players in the league. The Blazers alone occupied three that year, allowing everyone to see the power of 3D players.

Where can you find such a player who can defend and score without having the ball.

So now, 3D players are very much in demand.

In this year's free agent market, there are no 3D players to sign.If there is a trade, the Blazers have no bargaining chips.

Wayne could only do the next best thing, thinking of old Carter.

Carter's defense, because of his age, has slowed down a lot.

But Carter's aggressiveness is still very strong, after all, he fought from the beginning of the century.Moreover, his experience can sometimes make up for his footwork problems.

Let's talk about three-pointers, Carter's three-pointers have always been very strong, and his three-pointers last season remained at nearly 40%.

Open the historical three-point hit list, and you will be surprised to find that Carter is actually in the top ten.

The ones in front of him were all famous and legendary shooters like Miller and Junzi Lei.

But no one has ever regarded Carter as a shooter, because his dunks are so explosive.

Once the buckle label is attached, it is very difficult to remove it.

It's as if some actors have played too many superhero movies, and they will form an inherent impression.

For example, Hugh Jackman looks like Wolverine in everything, even in a costume drama, you always feel that he will stretch out his steel claws at any time.

Carter was also harmed by this inherent impression. People only remembered his dunks and ignored his other advantages.

Therefore, in Wayne's mind, Carter can be regarded as a qualified 3D substitute.

Although it's not top-notch, but if it's just a dozen minutes of substitute time, Wayne thinks that Carter is quite enough.

Moreover, as a championship team, it definitely needs a few veterans like Carter to take over the field.

When it comes to desperate moments, they will exert power beyond imagination.

"Ham, as long as I have a place to continue playing and a stable playing time, that's fine.

If the situation is really as you said, I have no reason to refuse this time. "Carter scratched his head embarrassedly.

The No. 1 in the league paid three visits to the thatched cottage, which is a great deal of face for him, the former four major shooting guards.

If you want to change someone who doesn't give him face, probably just one sentence: once, second battle, once three battles, not once more.

"No, Vince. This time, it's not as simple as just finding a place to play. This time I'm here with you, not to play happy basketball, we have to do it for real, you understand?

We will overthrow everyone who stands in our way in the playoffs.

This is real competition and confrontation, I need you to use all your remaining strength to pursue top honors together! "

What Wayne said made old Carter boil.

Top honor, championship.

Carter hadn't thought about this for a long time.

He originally thought that he had become indifferent to fame and fortune, but now when he had another chance to touch honor, he found that he was still excited.

Carter can't wait to think about the real sword and gun battle.

At this moment, the door of Wayne's house was pushed open.

I saw a funny guy stuck his head out and glanced at Wayne and Carter.

"It's really you! Hahahahaha, Uncle Carter, you really came to teach me how to dunk!"

The person who came was none other than Portland's number one dunker, Stephen Curry who pressed the glider to the ground and rubbed it against the ground.

"Fuck!" Carter panicked. To be honest, his biggest concern about joining the Trail Blazers was this guy!
You've lost all my face for calling yourself Portland Carter every day.

When Carter praised Curry at the beginning, it wasn't because of embarrassing the old Curry.

It's like meeting a friend's child and generally saying how cute and smart they are.

It's impossible to say in front of others that your child is stupid.

That's what Carter meant when he praised Curry back then, but he didn't expect that Jie Zi would take it seriously!

"Hahahaha, Uncle Carter, come on, come to Portland! With your guidance, I will win a slam dunk contest this year!"

Curry rushed in and hugged Carter excitedly. The dunk saw the dunk with tears in his eyes.

Wayne just slipped his mouth a little a few days ago, saying that Carter would come over in two days, but he didn't expect Curry to come after him.

Carter looked at Curry with an awkward smile, feeling extremely disgusted in his heart: "Ni Zukai! I don't have that ability to teach you!"

"Oh, why don't you start special training today! Uncle Carter, you know my talent, you just need to call me a few times, and I can handle it!" Curry said, excitedly pulling Carter to the basketball court in the yard of Wayne's house.

After all, Carter is a polite person, and it is not easy to refuse Curry.

"So, I'm starting! This time, I'm going to perform a windmill dunk. Uncle Carter, let me see if there is anything I need to improve."

Curry held the ball confidently, and under the gaze of Carter, the legendary dunker, accelerated his sprint.

When he ran to the basket, Curry jumped up with all his strength and completed a big windmill in the air.

Well, the action was done, that is, the last dunk, the basketball hit the basket directly.

Knock frame big windmill!
"Fucking genius!" Wayne watched and applauded. Curry's dunk will never disappoint.

"Ah, here." Curry stared at the bounced basketball, and stayed where he was in embarrassment.

Carter watched Curry's dunk, only one thing on his mind.

Why is this funny guy so shameless!

The way Curry dunks is full of Carter's 60-year-old figure.

I dare to call myself Portland Carter. I am not a tree new bee. I am almost 40 years old and I can buckle better than him!
If you want to improve your dunk, there is only one way - that is to reincarnate and restore the factory settings!
My God, you ruined Lao Tzu's reputation.

Of course, Carter didn't say these words, after all, he was soft-hearted.

He applauded embarrassingly: "Beautiful, beautiful! The movements are very stretched, a bit of my style back then! It's just a few hundred million points away, and it would be great if I jumped a few hundred million points higher."

The primary school students are overjoyed, see?The legendary dunkers all affirmed my dunk, what right do you have to laugh at me! ?
I really am a genius hahahaha!
Aren't Ah Tang and Green a pair of ghosts knocking on the door before?

Next season we will be double gods abuse the frame!
Looking at Curry, who had already started to laugh at himself, Carter had a terrible headache, and he didn't know how to get along with this kind of funny comparison in the future.

Although Curry almost persuaded Carter to quit, but after finally weighing the pros and cons, Carter agreed to Wayne.

Join the Trail Blazers next season!
Wayne's words moved him, and now he really wants to fight again and fight for a season with real knives and guns.

It's never too late to pursue the championship trophy.The most important thing is, do you still have the courage to fight!
Those guys always say that old soldiers don't die, they just fade away.

Fuck you, Lao Tzu, a veteran, will never accept the wimpy withering!
As long as I can still play, I will continue to play in the NBA and accept the challenge.

I belong to this stage!
The next day, Carter announced on his social media that he had reached a two-year 750 million contract with the Trail Blazers.

The fans were shocked. They thought Carter was going to retire, but instead of retiring, he was going to fight for the championship.

However, Carter's joining made people a little worried about the Trail Blazers' lineup structure.

Carter + Ga Suo + Gan Nei + Ga De Wei + Tony, this Nima Portland Kindergarten has become a Portland Nursing Home, right?
Fortunately, Birdman chose to retire, otherwise the old Landlord could have two tables.

Although the outside world is not very optimistic about this signing, after all, Carter's popularity is here, and Portland fans still welcome it.

Hard special: Come on brother!I told you a long time ago, this Portland thigh, he is long, thick and hard!

The Trail Blazers' official Twitter account also featured the headline "UFO Coming."

Curry looked very puzzled.

Hasn't Portland always had UFOs?This is at best the number two machine.

Good guy, co-authoring the real Carter can only be the second machine.

Carter joined, and Curry was happier than Wayne.He feels that his dream of becoming a dunker will be fulfilled next season.

Of course, when someone comes, someone goes.

Thompson finally selected the Warriors who had just played the Western Conference Finals with the Trail Blazers last season among the licking dogs!
This kind of behavior of surrendering to the enemy naturally caused Ah Tang to be criticized by Portland fans, but from Ah Tang's point of view, there is nothing wrong with this choice.

Although the Warriors and Trail Blazers only played in the Western Conference Finals last season, the two sides are not old enemies and there is not much grievance.

Another one, the Warriors are the only team among all the licking dogs that can satisfy Thompson's 30% maximum salary and give him a chance to win the championship.

Before leaving, he also invited Curry and Wayne to have a meal, and carefully asked Wayne if he would blame him.

What can Wayne say?
Thompson's going to the Warriors will undoubtedly create a strong opponent for the Blazers next season.

The Warriors originally had Green, Brother Yi and Cole, and with the addition of Tang Shen, the Warriors really replaced Curry with Paul. Naturally, there is no need to say more about their strength.

But for Thompson, this is the best choice for his future.

It's impossible for Wayne to ruin his career in order to easily achieve his goal, let him go to a place like the Hornets (Lynx), right?

Boss Joe: Say it again?what's up charlotteCharlotte has the genes of a champion!

Du Xiaoshuai looked at Thompson's choice and expressed embarrassment. So he joined this game if he couldn't beat it?
got it~
And Middleton also signed the Bucks with a maximum salary, because only the Bucks are willing to give him a maximum salary.

The Bucks are the kind of team that is not attractive to big-name stars, so even second- and third-tier stars will try their best to spend money to buy the team.

So, everyone, stop spraying Boss Joe.

It's really not that Jordan likes to burn money and give big contracts blindly.

For a while, Biyombo was signed with a big contract, and Hayward was signed with a maximum salary for a while.

The main reason is that he wants top stars to come to Charlotte. Top stars don't want to, unless you train one yourself.

Therefore, the only choice for the small ball market is to settle for second and third-tier stars. This is the tragedy of the small ball market.

Middleton's going to the Bucks can be regarded as returning to the historical track.

He and the Greek monster are about to set off a storm in the east.

Although the departure of Thompson and Middleton has long been a foregone conclusion, Wayne still feels like a knife is piercing his heart.

What's the matter, without Thompson's ghostly dribble, there will be one less source of happiness in the future.

But the NBA is like this. The Warriors in the original history, if Durant doesn't leave, Thompson will leave.

In this Trail Blazers, Wayne became the Durant who didn't leave.

Of course, now is not the time to regret.

The departure of Thompson and Middleton means that the Blazers must hurry up and continue to strengthen.

There can't be only one Carter as a backup guard, so it's embarrassing for him.

At first, Wayne targeted Long's guidance entering free agency.

For a price, you can hire a coach and a point guard at the same time, why not do it?

Signed with Long's guidance, next season against the Warriors, it can also cause 10% psychological damage to Pao'er.

It's very beautiful to think about the scene where Long's director guessed the opponent's tactics.

Director Long's current worth is only a few million, and the Blazers can afford it.

But Wayne suddenly remembered that Director Long and Carlisle had conflicts in the previous life.

Ever since, Wayne gave up his plan to seduce Rondo.

For championship teams, chemistry is the most important thing.

In the 14 years of the Heat, their strength is not only at the level of only one game against the Spurs.

The main reason is that the chemical reaction collapsed, which made the entire team unable to form a combat effectiveness at all.

Missing Long's guidance, there are not many good defenders on the market.

Monta Ellis is good, but this guy is a ball black hole.Moreover, the asking price is too high.

In the end, Wayne let the team make a quick shot and locked last season's best sixth man Reed.

Reed's asking price is not high, and a middle-class contract is enough.Although he is the best sixth man, Lu Wei's strengths and weaknesses are very clear, and he can only attack but not defend.

A player with major flaws like him cannot afford to sign a big contract.

Although there are shortcomings, it is better than being unable to find anyone.

At the beginning, Lu Wei wanted to go to a big market like Los Angeles, but then he thought about it. After Wayne returned, Portland's traffic was not small, and it could still compete for the championship.

Therefore, Lu Wei joined the Trail Blazers on a three-year contract.Left Middleton, the No.3 best sixth man, and introduced the real best sixth man!

Afterwards, the Trail Blazers quickly took down the big Jiongji, who was not cared about, adding another barrier to the inside defense.

In the past two years, due to a fractured tibia in his left leg, Dajiongji basically didn't play well and disappeared from people's sight.

For this kind of jumping man, a broken leg is a very taboo injury, and no one knows if he can still fight.

But Wayne knew that McGee was fine.As a pure blue-collar, he is completely sufficient.

After all, Turner is too young to expect him to support the inside line alone.

As a result, Olajuki officially airborne, and the Blazers' reinforcements are nearing completion.

Olajuki is good at everything but this head.
Wayne can't even imagine what kind of witty moment he and Curry will have in the friction next season. Next season, quick-acting heart-relief pills must be ready at any time.

Wayne and Patterson looked at the roster, and the lineup was almost complete, but they always felt that something was missing.

"I see, there is one less thug!" Patterson slapped his head, forgetting such an important role.

How can a championship team lack bodyguards?I think that if Barkley and Wu Sheng were not there, Wayne might have been suspended.Wayne is suspended and the championship may fly.

But now in this alliance, there are fewer and fewer thug roles.

Wayne also thought about it, and suddenly remembered a person.

"I have a candidate. He played in Xibee last season. Maybe this season is the best time for him to return to the league!"

"Oh? There is such a tough guy? What's his name?"

"His name is many, but now, his name is Panda Friends."
