537. The Suns only have the advantage of selling tickets (6000 words)(1/2)
In addition to these old teammates, there are also 6 new teammates' player detection reports.
"Brent Barry, 31 years old, 201 cm, 96 kg, ability evaluation 79, offense 78, defense 81..."
Seeing Brent Barry's player detection report and comparing the 20-year-old Parker and 21-year-old Kirirenko, Zhang Hao can only say that talent is something, there is really nothing he can do.
Brent Barry is still at the peak, but at his peak, he is a level that geniuses like Parker and Kirirenko can easily reach.
But this is professional sports.
If a group of friends find a stadium to play damba ball, it doesn’t matter if your talent or something is, just be happy.
For most people, it is not time to compete for talent, and even for many professional players.
But the top event in a sport like the NBA is to compete for victory or defeat from multiple aspects. Talent is naturally one of the most important aspects.
The least important thing in playing Baba Ba is probably talent, while the most important thing in playing in the NBA is talent.
"Manu Ginobili, 25 years old, 198 cm, 93 kg, ability evaluation 76, offense 79, defense 75..."
‘Sure enough, like the preseason performance, Demon Sword is quite mediocre now, needs to adapt, need to adjust its playing style… and also needs No-Handhek.’
Although Ginobili is not strong yet and cannot directly bring his dominance in the international arena to the NBA, what Zhang Hao is most worried about is Ginobili, a genius who can choose to stock up with confidence.
Artest needs Jordan education, Ben Wallace needs years of accumulation, Chandler needs patience to train, Parker needs to care for himself... but Ginobili doesn't need it.
From all aspects, Ginobili is already a very mature player. If Ginobili cannot grow into a scorer who averages 15+ per game in the future, then it can only be said to be unsuitable.
Of course, it is also difficult to average 20+ points per game.
"Carlos Arroyo, 23 years old, 188 cm, 90 kg, ability evaluation 69, offense 73, defense 65..."
‘This... the third point guard, just use it. Three-pointers are OK. They are strong and they are fine to be a propulsive defender.’
"Chris Anderson, 24 years old, 208 cm, 111 kg, ability evaluation 68, offense 59, defense 79..."
‘Excellent rushing ability, able to defend above the level of both power forward and center position, and a very good fourth and fifth inside line.’
"Mat Barnes, 22 years old, 203 cm, 100 kg, ability evaluation 67, offense 61, defense 73..."
‘It’s OK. If a bad guy with defensive talent gives him more playing time, the defensive progress may be more obvious, just like world peace... But it is impossible to do that. At most, he will be the No. 5 candidate for the shooting guard and small forward position, and the outside appearance is the first six.’
"Reggie Evans, 22 years old, 203 cm, 110 kg, ability evaluation 64, offense 50, defense 71, rebound 93..."
Jia Giant was one year older, and his aging was severe, and his offense was even more bleak. Zhang Hao did not expect that a 22-year-old young man would be worse than the older Jia Giant's offense!
Jia Giant's offense is worse than Big Ben. Zhang Hao is already complaining about it, and now there is a worse one.
‘This, if you say it’s the poor version of the giant Jia, you are more rated as this guy who is good at rebounding?
During the two years that Jia Giant was at the peak, he was at the edge of the All-Star level. He also averaged 10+13 per game with the Nets in the first year of winning the contract.
But the candidate at the end of the inside line is OK.’
I read the player detection report of my teammates, and in general, Zhang Hao was quite satisfied.
This year their Supersonics are young!
When Jordan announced his retirement, the Supersonics' team-building ideas were also rapidly adjusted. The signed role players were mainly young players Arroyo, Chris Anderson, and Reggie Evans.
Last season and last season, the Supersonics were one of the oldest teams in the league, but this season, the average age of the 14 Supersonics players is 25.07 years old, ranking behind the Warriors and Nuggets, the third youngest in the league!
‘I’m still a little unaccustomed. In the past, we always had several players over 35 years old. Now Aliens and Jia Giant are the two oldest players…’
Finally, Zhang Hao looked at his comprehensive evaluation again.
"Special signing player: Zhang Hao.
Age/Date of Birth: 25 years old/January 7, 1977.
211 cm in height, 223 cm in wingspan
Weight: 109 kg.
Position: Forward.
Team: Seattle Supersonics.
Ability evaluation: 96.
Physical fitness: speed 90, strength 93, bounce 94, flexibility 96, physical strength 98...
Shooting: 93 three-pointers, 97 mid-range shots, 98 layups...
Techniques: 86 ball control, 87 pass, 97 catch shot, 95 jump shot, 92 high back-body skills, 86 low back-body skills, 93 cut, 79 jump step, 91 turn, 92 change direction, 93 emergency stop jump shot, 93 three threat standing posture 84..."
‘When the three-point evaluation reaches 94, you can directly use the super top breakthrough card to 95. The technology to expand around the current playing style is becoming more and more mature. It seems that I, Zhang, have really entered the peak period. You can't float or show off, and there is still room for improvement... No matter what, show off first!’

At 7:40 pm on October 31, 2002, the Seattle Key Stadium raised the third championship flag in the history of the Supersonics, and the second consecutive year that the championship flag was raised.
To be sure, this is the last time this arena has raised the NBA championship flag, because it has been confirmed that the Supersonics will move into the new stadium next season.
To build a new stadium, it is not difficult to build a stadium itself, but the difficult thing is the preparations ahead.
Since the summer of 2000, Howard Schultz discovered that they were leading singers who held concerts in Seattle, artists who held art exhibitions... and others have chosen the Seattle Seahawks' Century Tail Stadium, and they began to discuss the landing and repairing the stadium with the Seattle City Hall, but it was not until the summer of 2001 that the issue was officially launched.
It was not until after the 9/11 terrorist attack that in order to stimulate the local economy, he really started to draw the ground and even drew a mountain for Zhang Hao that he could overlook Lake Washington.
Of course, this kind of thing is for economic benefit.
But for players and fans, they will not consider those complicated things, including Zhang Hao. When it comes to changing to a new stadium, they only care about whether the new stadium is bigger, not far from home...
Of course, it is inevitable that you will feel a little reluctant to leave if you want to change to a new stadium.
When I first joined the Supersonics in the 99-00 season, I was very dissatisfied with this stadium that was built only five or six years ago but seemed to be an old building fifty or sixty years ago. However, after winning the championship for the first time, I had more feelings.
Watching the championship flag rise, Artest said: "Boss, Ben, Sam, Jason, we will change the stadium next year. When we play the first game in the new stadium, we should also raise such a flag, right?"
Zhang Hao and Ben Wallace all looked at Artest and nodded.
Kassel, Jason Williams, and Parker, Kirilenko and Chandler who played together last season could not help but nod.
Even Brent Barry nodded.
This is indeed a very important thing.
The new Arroyo, Ginobili, Barnes, Birdman, Reggie Evans is a little confused... Is it the defending declaration of the new season?
So confident?
Such things are so quiet when you say them? It seems that everything is under control?
But no! Judging from the preseason running-in, their Supersonics have many problems!
How to quickly develop aristocratic disease... Just be a teammate with Zhang Hao.
...
"Annie, I can't swallow it... I'd better put a necklace on you. It's really troublesome to swallow it."
After winning the championship ring, Zhang Hao decisively gave the fourth ring to his baby daughter. Tiga next to him was envious of...'Next time it should be mine, right?'
There are so many rings that start to be sent to my daughter? The Suns players on the opposite side were so envious of this scene.
After handing out the championship ring, the Supersonics' championship journey last season came to an end.
No matter how brilliant the last season played, the new season can only start over.
Moreover, winning the championship last season will not only not bring them any help, but will instead bring more targeting.
Zhang Hao was familiar with the situation of adjusting his mindset and quickly entered the progressive state of the season.
After looking at the opponent's player detection report, Zhang Hao found...'The Suns really have nothing but the reputation of the stars.'
From the beginning of entering the court, both old players felt that the opponent had become weaker.
As for the Suns, it feels like there is no old players on the other side, so they are weaker.
This is true. Except for Jason Williams, the Supersonics bench has little experience to talk about.
But in terms of the Supersonics, I really feel that the Suns have reached a new low in strength!
With a three-year contract of $20 million, Jerome Williams, who averaged 7 points and 6 rebounds per game with the Pistons last season, doubled the value of these role players in the inside line!
The more luxurious the Suns' lineup was, now it looks like it is.
The Pistons selected Stoudemire, and after verifying Stoudemire's talent in the summer league, they gave up retiring Jerome Williams, who asked for a middle-class starting contract.
Raptors, 76ers, Suns, Kings, Supersonics, Lakers and other teams compete around them.
In terms of playing style, Jerome Williams is the enhanced version of Chris Anderson.
In the end, the Suns' annual salary increased by 1.5 million yuan, with a starting salary of 6.59 million yuan in three years totaling 20 million US dollars to snatch Jerome Williams.
Because there is really no one in the Suns' interior, Sgerter Williams has become the Suns' center. This is a center who has entered the NBA in 1990 and is now 34 years old. He averaged 5.6 points and 6.4 rebounds per game last season.
At 7:58 pm, the two teams came on the court.
The Suns sent Anthony Hardaway, Hu Weidong, Grant Hill, Jerome Williams and Sgerter Williams.
The Supersonics sent a combination of Kassel, Brent Barry, Artest, Zhang Hao and Ben Wallace.
To be continued...
