In order to have a happy holiday, Zhou Xuan even cleared his stocks. Investors need to be cautious. He doesn¡¯t have time to focus on money-related things all day long. The U.S. stock market has reached a peak and began to fall sharply. At this time, short positions are equal to making money. Zhou Xuan did not participate in the team's transactions and fully enjoyed the holiday. Several more transactions appeared one after another, and the Pistons introduced Bargnani to make up for the vacancy left by Monroe's departure. The No. 1 pick was reduced to signing a one-point, three-year contract worth 300,000 yuan. His shooting is inaccurate and his defense is very poor. The Pistons want to bet that he can return to a few percent of his form, just like they bet on Jennings. The Hawks' reinforcements were the stingiest. They introduced Oden. Millsap is gone, replaced by Oden, and the new boss is simply surprising. The most amazing thing is that Oden was reimbursed every year, but he always found a job. Perhaps the management is interested in him wearing a headband on the sidelines to pretend to be James and scare people. Beverley signed a mini-mid-level contract with the Rockets and stayed with the team. He wanted to ask for another high salary, but no team was willing to give it to him. Judging from the data, he was just a role player. The Knicks signed veteran Vince Carter to reinforce the swingman position. Carter is already 3 years old. He still scored 6B points and rebounds with the Grizzlies last season. 6 assists, 3.0 field goal percentage, and only 3.0 three-pointers, a career low. Mullin is interested in Carter's experience and his ability to keep up with the rhythm of the game. He still had breakthrough dunks last season. If you can't play well in the slow-paced Grizzlies, you may not be able to play well in the Knicks. After that, the Knicks used a veteran's minimum salary to introduce O'Neal. Xiao Ao is 37 years old this year and wants to get a championship ring before retiring. Xiao Ao hasn¡¯t played ball for a year. 213 He performed well in the 2014 season and was a key scorer in the Warriors' second team, averaging 9 points and 6.6 rebounds in 2 minutes per game. His efficiency rating is 15. B is in the league average position, but due to an injury to his left wrist, he only appeared in 44 games. The shackles of injuries have been with O'Neal for many years. In the past four seasons, he has played a maximum of 55 games. After Mark Jackson left, O'Neal Jr. publicly expressed his dissatisfaction and unwillingness to play for Steve Kerr. His injury has fully recovered, and it¡¯s hard to say what level he can play at. Mullin was willing to take a gamble. The Knicks lineup has been confirmed with 2 players. Center: Al Jefferson, Cole Aldridge, Jermaine O'Neal. ? Power forward: Chris Bosh, Ryan Anderson. Small forwards: Rudy Gay, Kyle Anderson, Vince Carter. Shooting guards: Kawhi Leonard, Ben Gordon. Point guards: Zhou Xuan, Bledsoe. After several transactions, the Knicks¡¯ total salary next season will rank third in the league, second only to the Nets and Cavaliers. They still have two vacant spots and are planning to review them in the preseason before deciding who to keep. Zhou Xuan and Chlo? Grace Moretz returned to the United States and stayed in their new home in Los Angeles for a while to continue enjoying their vacation. Zhou Xuan stimulated Kobe in Los Angeles. He started practicing early and reportedly took a private plane to the arena and home every day. Many fans were very surprised by this - "Is there a traffic jam in Los Angeles at four o'clock in the morning?" (This is not a surprising question, right) Zhou Xuan took the time to make a guest appearance in Jon Favreau's new movie "Chef". Scarlett Johansson, Dustin Hoffman, Robert Downey Jr., Sofia Vergara and others also participated in the performance. Favreau is very popular and this is a low-budget comedy. Zhou Xuan plays a Chinese chef in the movie. His superb cooking skills and handsome appearance overwhelm the chef played by Favreau, and he only has a few scenes. Scarlett plays a restaurant manager and the lover of Jon Favreau's character in the film. Favreau said earlier: "Who wouldn't want Scarlett to play his lover?" This Iron Man's solid bodyguard finally achieved success and moved towards capturing the goddess's heart by capturing her stomach. Of course, the fat man in the movie is too embarrassed to arrange passionate scenes for himself, and is just a confidante. Zhou Xuan's role was completed, and Favreau asked: "Stephen, I wanted to make this movie the year before last. How do you feel? Will it be a hit? The box office has exceeded 100 million" This guy is used to making blockbusters, even if this one is not for making money. Those who make the film also hope to get high box office. The protagonist Carl¡¯s series of encounters coincide with Favreau¡¯s own experience. He made Iron Man in 2026, which was the most acclaimed and best-selling movie in his directorial career. But the following "Iron Man 2" and "Cowboys and Aliens" were lackluster. The third episode of Iron Man also had a different director. He wanted to vindicate himself without losing his style. This movie is actually his A coquettish work. Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "Yes, as long as you change the title of the movie "Chef" to "A Bite of Stark Industries", and then write in the trailer synopsis: "The big-backed bodyguard started cooking Cuban food after being seriously injured and retired, and the black widow is here" There¡¯s something going on between the restaurant and the bodyguard, and Iron Man sent a food truck to help his old friend find a new job, which might attract Marvel fans to the cinema.¡±"Hahaha, good idea." "Brother, this movie is very good. I like it. No matter what the final box office is, I believe it will get good reviews." Zhou Xuan encouraged. "I also believe that you can win the championship next season, don't let that guy who knows how to pretend to be a HR spoon have an easy time." Favreau said, clenching his casserole-sized fists. Downey poked his head out of the dining car and frowned: "Hey, who are you scolding?" While Zhou Xuan was enjoying his vacation, the 215 Asian Championships began. This Asian Championship is very controversial. The Iranian Basketball Association expressed its protest and dissatisfaction with the Chinese team once again winning the right to host the 215 Asian Championships before the Olympic Games, because this is related to the competition for Olympic tickets. The pattern of today's Asian basketball has changed. The new generation of the Chinese men's basketball team is on the road of exploration. In contrast, the Iranian men's basketball team has entered its golden period. Winning the Asian Championship and becoming the new overlord of Asian basketball. However, the Iranian team does not have an advantage in terms of treatment for hosting the Asian Championships. Since 1966, Iran has never hosted the Asian Championships in its home country. In sharp contrast, in the Asian Championships after 2011, China won the right to host it 4 times. The Iranian team¡¯s protest is justified. The effectiveness of home court advantage is obvious. The main purpose of the Chinese men¡¯s basketball team sending young players to train at the Asian Games is also to prepare for the Asian Championships. But applying to host the Asian Championships not only requires record advantages, but also economic factors and influence. Iran does not have an economic advantage in the Middle East, and its national influence is not enough. It will not be easy for them to bid to host the 217 Asian Championships. The first game is in Taipei, China. With the inside advantage of Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhelin, the Chinese team easily won. The media excitedly said that the national team had successfully avenged the 213 Asian Championships. In the second game, the Chinese team lost to Iran by 21 points without any suspense. In fact, there is still some advantage inside, but the Chinese team is in a mess on the outside. The defender knows how to rush in. The opponent is in a zone defense, so he dives directly into the crowd and misses the shot or makes a mistake in the distribution. And they didn't even look up when they broke through. It's amazing that they were able to enter the national team. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? being passed back and forth along the three-point line, and there be no way to create open shooting opportunities. Even if there are no open opportunities, playing high pick-and-rolls and running back without the ball at 45 degrees from the side does not require golf intelligence at all. After dislocation, just gently distribute the ball. The amazing thing is that the Chinese team's outside players are like amateur players. They don't know how to score. When passing the ball, they always have to hold the ball for a second and the opponent will be in place to pursue the ball. Many people don¡¯t understand why Zhou Xuan is strong when he has an average body and is not particularly fast. His strength lies in his quick reaction. Whether he is connecting with the ball and attacking with a fake move, or passing the ball to a teammate who relies on a screen to escape, he is the fastest in the world. "Compared with him, other Chinese defenders seem to play without thinking at all. Afterwards, the opponents were relatively weak, and the Chinese team qualified in the group without any suspense, and avoided Iran before the finals. At this time, the media, coaching staff, and players were all complacent. In fact, once you want to avoid someone, you can easily imagine the strength of this team, and they have no confidence in overpowering their opponents. The Chinese team defeated the Japanese team in the knockout round and lost to South Korea in the semifinals. South Korea¡¯s inside line is inferior to that of the Chinese team, both in player ability and physical fitness, but their overall offense is very methodical. The Chinese team just plays randomly. The only tactics that can be seen are Yi Jianlian or Wang Zhelin cutting through the air after the pick-and-roll, catching the ball and attacking or rushing for offensive rebounds. With an absolute dominance in rebounding, the Chinese team still lost by 4 points and only made 2 of 17 shots from outside. Such a shooting rate would still kill Zhou Xuan even in the main game of the 26th Olympic Games. After winning the game, the Koreans were very arrogant, thinking that Korean basketball can dominate Smecta in Asia, and the champion must be our Smecta. In the 214 Asian Games, they defeated Iran to win the championship, but this time, Iran completed its revenge in the final. Only the champion can qualify for the Rio Olympics in 2026. The Koreans did not have the last laugh. If they want to participate in the Olympics, they have to participate in the play-offs with the Chinese team and strive to qualify as wild cards. The Chinese team in the Men's Basketball World Cup directly gave up qualifications for the play-offs and resigned to its fate. Whether they will accept their fate again this time has become a major topic of discussion online. Another topic is whether the EA League will be restructured in the future and return to the rule that a team was only allowed to use one foreign player. The Chinese men's basketball team gradually weakened after EA began to allow more foreign players. After that, domestic players could not form the core of EA. If you can't produce good data in domestic leagues, what can you do outside? After losing, someone from the Basketball Association called Zhou Xuan and asked him if he was willing to represent the national team in the play-offs. "No." Zhou Xuan said categorically: "I hope everyone in the Basketball Association will understand one thing. Do you want to save Chinese basketball or save the face of the men's basketball team." "What do you mean?" "I'm going to play in the play-offs. , the ball revolves around me, depending on our individual ability we may be able to win and play26 Olympic Games, then what? Those players who are not good are still not good and still cannot get training. They are not good at EA, even the veterans are average. If we continue to rest on our laurels, what if these people quit in the future? Chinese basketball is finished. I suggest letting young players play in the play-offs as an investment. Now they don't even have any blood, and I have no interest in being their nanny. " "All right. " The men's basketball official is helpless. If others say this, he can be very arrogant and accuse someone of disobeying arrangements and disciplines and permanently expelling him from the national team. Now they are begging Zhou Xuan. The initiative is not in their hands. I had no choice but to give in. The men's basketball team is at this point largely due to them. Zhou Xuan thought clearly about the consequences, and he was not interested in making mistakes for these young players. It would be great if he could learn from his shame and then be brave, take on more responsibilities, and use his brain to play ball.
