"Congratulations to Zhou for winning the All-Star MVP for three consecutive years!"

“The only one in history!”

"MVP——!"

"MVP——!"

"MVP——!"

Amid the cheers of Toronto fans, Zhou Si took the AMVP trophy from Xiao Hua and raised it high above his head.

Like last year, Zhou Si felt a lot of envious, jealous and hateful looks.

Every player only has a few years at his peak. Once he reaches the All-Star level, he naturally wants to create his own glory.

Zhou Si's monopoly on the All-Star Game MVP for three consecutive years can be regarded as blocking the rise of many players from another perspective.

After the game, in the locker room, Zhou Si had a few words with the temporary teammates as usual.

"It's no fun to win the All-Star MVP. If it weren't for the fans, I wouldn't want to come to Toronto this year. If you work harder at the All-Stars next year, it will be up to you."

Westbrook and Nongmei wanted to go over and punch Zhou Si.

Damn, are you lying to a child?

You? You said the same thing last year!

I must remind you before next year’s competition!

…

Zhou Si didn't care whether they believed it or not and got on the special plane back to Portland.

The All-Star Game MVP trophy was casually put aside by Zhou Si.

Now in Zhou Si's eyes, Ye Qin is the most important.

At this time, Wo Shen silently updated his Twitter:

"Most general managers have already called to make arrangements for the next few days, and they will meet in the office to discuss the possibility of a transaction.

The real deadline negotiations begin today!”

After returning to Portland, there were still a few days before the trade deadline. Zhou Si accompanied Ye Qin to read various parenting books and browse various news.

In the 15-16 season, the final madness began.

The Wizards put Calderon on the shelf, but seemed to be waiting for a price;

The Cavaliers, due to the addition of Drummond, the playing time of the Eight Sage King TT has been further reduced, and currently seems to be in conflict with the Cavaliers management. The Timberwolves, Spurs and Raptors seem to be his potential suitors;

The Cavaliers' backup center, Mozgov said that he also wants to be traded, and he is currently very frustrated with his situation.

Zhou Si couldn't help but pinch his chin when he saw this.

The atmosphere within the Cavaliers seems to be a bit bad!

In addition, Magic Landry, Nick Young, Jazz's JJ Barea, Rockets' Delonte West, Pelicans' Lopez, Timberwolves Asik, David Lee have

was put on the shelf.

Some teams are trying to get rid of players who are not in good condition, some players are really in conflict with the team, some managements are trying to reduce luxury taxes, and some teams are clearing salary space.

Obviously, this is a warm-up for this crazy summer.

Before the transaction deadline, the transaction was officially announced.

The first trade to be revealed was the Cavaliers, who traded Mozgov to the Nets to acquire point guard Vazquez.

So far this season, Vazquez has played in 44 games for the Nets, averaging 6.2 points and 3.1 assists in 14.3 minutes per game;

Mozgov has played in 31 games this season, averaging 2.9 points and 2.7 rebounds in 7.7 minutes of playing time.

From the data, the Cavaliers made a lot of money, but after analyzing it, Zhou Si felt that it should be a win-win situation.

This season, Irving's substitutes Mo Mo and Galloway's statistics are 4.3 points, 1.2 assists and 2.3 points, 2.1 assists respectively. It is obvious that the team management is not very satisfied with them. In exchange for Vazquez, they want to see if he can

It can bring more vitality to the team's bench.

For the Nets, starting center Brook Lopez is very strong, averaging 19.3 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks per game, but as strong as he is, his substitutes will have more options.

Karnowski, last year's second-round pick, averaged 0.8 points and 1.4 rebounds per game.

Therefore, Zhou Si feels that exchanging Mozgov is a good deal for the Nets, which is currently ranked tenth and aims to hit the playoffs.

Landry from the Magic was traded to the Clippers, and the Clippers improved their bench.

Delonte West was sent from the Rockets to the Hornets, who are in the midst of a playoff push, in exchange for this year's second-round pick from the Hornets, which is clearly clearing space.

The Pelicans center Robin Lopez, who averaged 6.7 points and 4.5 points per game in just 9 minutes of play, was very popular in the trade market. Finally, after some consideration, the Pelicans management sent him to Milwaukee.

The deer's youth army was replaced by last year's ninth overall pick, Hood.

Behind Antetokounmpo and Parker, Hood's playing time has not been much, and the Pelicans are betting on his potential.

The Timberwolves have been selling David Lee, but no one paid any attention to David Lee, whose salary is as high as 15.5 million US dollars. In the end, the Timberwolves had no choice but to lay off him.

The rest of the players who had been talked about fiercely before, such as Calderon, TT, Nick Young, Barea, and Asik, were not traded.

Zhou Si took a look and found that Calderon is not playing well this season. He only has 2.3 points and 1.2 assists this season, and his shooting percentage is only 38%. He also has an annual salary of 5 million. It is normal that no one cares about him.

As for TT, Zhou Si thinks that it is most likely that James's team has appeased him. Anyway, he has got a big contract, so he can just make a deal, and the money will not be small anyway.

And after sending Mozgov away, TT's playing time will definitely increase.

It was said that Nick Young and Barea were false news before, and Asik had a falling out with the Timberwolves. The team was unlikely to make the playoffs this season, so they directly put him in cold storage.

Many other teams also made some small transactions to clear salary space, but Zhou Si didn't pay much attention to these, just do it anyway!

…

On February 20, the Trail Blazers flew to San Antonio to face the Spurs.

This is the last game of the Trail Blazers' regular season against the Spurs, so Zhou Si cherishes it very much.

This game may be the last time he and Duncan compete on the same stage.

The Spurs' recent record is relatively poor, with only 5 wins and 5 losses in the last ten games. This has nothing to do with Duncan's state. The most important reason is that their new aid Favors is injured.

Broken toe, injured for 1-2 weeks...

Popovich has been resting various players, but some players are injured. Injuries sometimes happen unexpectedly.

This game was very tense, and the score difference between the two sides was always within ten points, which fully showed the intensity of the playoffs.

At the end of the fourth quarter, Zhou Si came out with a strong carry, otherwise it would be hard to say the outcome of the game.

For the Trail Blazers, Lillard made only 4 of 15 three-pointers and 7 of 20 overall. However, he did well inside today, making 7 of 7 free throws and scoring 25 points.

The Spurs' Danny Zhang Tielin, who has completed his evolution, shot 1 of 6 three-pointers to rival Lillard.

But they are not the worst.

The worst thing was Kawhi Leonard, who was targeted by Zhou Si throughout the game.

In this game, under Zhou Si's demon shroud, Leonard, known as a stable scoring robot, made 2 of 16 shots, 0 of 7 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring only 6 points.

For comparison, Zhou Si made 13 of 18 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws. He scored 32 points, 10 rebounds, and 7 assists.

Before the game, the fans who crazily clamored on the Internet to "teach him how to be a good man" disappeared one after another.

This is not about teaching Zhou how to be a human being, but about being taught how to be a human being by Zhou.
