The preseason between the 76ers and the Cavaliers attracted a lot of attention due to the attitudes of both sides.

Industry insiders did not expect that they would play the game in the playoffs, and they did not expect that they could see Wei Xia and James play seriously for 37 minutes in a preseason game, each scoring a triple-double and then winning.

The 76ers with "home court advantage" won the game.

Wang Zhelin is the third male lead in this game. Although he only played for 14 minutes, someone would give him a goal as long as he was present. His ability to finish the penalty area was demonstrated, with 11 points and 6 rebounds in a single game, which was very outstanding.

"For Chinese fans, this game is perfect."

The two parties have different feelings.

James expressed regret for the loss, and those who are familiar with him knew that this happened rarely.

James doesn't care about the success or failure of the preseason and regular season, as long as he can enter the playoffs. He suddenly valued the victory or loss of the preseason so much. It can only be said that he put the Sixers at a very high position in his heart, and even if he wins a preseason game, it is worth being happy.

Wang Zhelin looked very happy, and this game greatly increased his confidence.

However, Rondo was repeatedly asked about his evaluation by Chinese media and seemed impatient: "He is very young and talented, but he still needs to polish his skills, especially pick-and-roll and cover."

If Wang Zhelin has developed a fake pick-and-roll habit in CBA, he may be targeted by his opponent if he is placed in the NBA.

But he also used this game to let the 76ers know how to use him in the future.

As long as he is allowed to play, he will find a way to get the ball in the penalty area. With his feel at the basket, even if Anthony Davis is guarding him, he will not be able to play.

Wei Xia did not complain as much as Long, nor was she as optimistic as Wang Zhelin. He believed that Wang Zhelin played well. At the same time, in order to adapt to the speed of NBA, the future year in CBA will be very important.

"If he aims at NBA, he needs to lose his weight and develop mid-range and long-range shots."

Wei Xia, like the coaching staff, saw Wang Zhelin's future in NBA.

To build a foothold in the league, you must rely on offense. Whatever you say starts from defense, and any rookie is the same, it is pure dogmatism and does not know how to teach according to your aptitude.

Wang Zhelin's condition is that he cannot do a good job in defense.

He could not defend Deng Huade in the national team, and he could not prevent any defender from putting the ball into the Fujian team's basket in the CBA. He could not defend the group of the most brutal carnivorous defenders on the earth when he arrived at the NBA.

The only defensive attribute he can improve is the low-level single defense.

But today, how many inside players are good at back-attacking?

There are more and more light inside players like Davis who can attack like a small forward from a defender. If these people pull to the high-level basket, Wang Zhelin's defense will be instantly killed.

Therefore, those who expect Wang Zhelin to start from defense are not clear about the situation.

Wei Xia made it very clear in front of the media, and he also hoped that Wang Zhelin would clarify his position in advance.

In the victory over the Cavaliers, the 76ers have the last game left in the preseason, and the opponent is CBA's defending champion Beijing Shougang.

The Beijing team is the disruptor of CBA and the regicide. They ended the Guangdong team's dominance, and at the same time allowed fans to see a defender who played at the NBA at its peak. After getting old, he came to CBA to rebirth, and developed a sense of belonging to the city and fought for it with all his strength. How unstoppable it was.

Marbury has been Jordan of CBA in recent years.

In the preseason with the 76ers, even if he is Jordan Bendan, he cannot just separate the gap between the CBA champion and the NBA champion by himself.

This is true, and Jordan is not allowed to come.

The 76ers beat Beijing team by 40 points, crushing the entire position.

Marbury is God in CBA, but he is close to 40 years old. The 76ers gave him respect in the matchup. Basically, they were arranged with strong defenders.

Several other points in Beijing have lost Marbury's restraint, and are inferior to the NBA championship. Even if the 76ers deliberately let the money go, they can't make them lose more decently.

The 76ers preseason ends here.

They are the first team in NBA history to complete all preseasons in China.

At the end of the preseason, the 76ers took a day off.

Wei Xia took her teammates to climb the Great Wall.

Their arrival made many old security guards on the Great Wall feel like they were a different life. Nearly ten years ago, Yao Mai's rockets also came here.

Now that I have changed my team and changed my face, the times have changed.

The 76ers only stayed for one day before collectively returning to the United States to prepare for the new season.

There are still 3 days left before the start of the new season, and they have to use these three days to adjust the time difference.

The 76ers in the new season are somewhat different from before.

They are not fully staffed.

The team's best sixth man, Ju Holiday, will be out of the game indefinitely due to family reasons.

In July this year, Holiday's wife Lauren suffered frequent headaches. The MRI test result showed that there was a benign tumor on the right side of the brain. Experts from Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles and Duke University Hospital also gave the same review results. Fortunately, the tumor can be treated through surgery and will not harm the child, but the operation must be done after the child is born.

Therefore, the Holiday family decided to wait six weeks after the child was born. In order to take care of his wife, Holiday decided to truce.

It's not an easy decision.

This year is Holiday's contract year. Most players will try their best to make a fortune in their contract year, and fortunately they can sign a better one at the end of the contract.

Holiday's wife Lauren is a member of the American women's football national team, and few NBA players' wives can surpass their husbands in athletic achievements.

Vujasic and Sheldon Williams are rare exceptions. Both of them were role players in the NBA, but they both found a world-class partner. Holiday is different. He is in the 76ers with stars, but there is not much room for playing. If you go to a team that can make him fire freely, you may not be able to become an All-Star.

His wife Lauren is a superstar in the field of women's football. She was elected as the best female football player in the United States. The MVP of the American Women's Football League. At the 2015 Women's World Cup, Lauren also contributed goals in the finals, helping the US team win the Women's World Cup for the third time. She also had many more fans on Twitter than her husband.

This summer, Lauren helped the US women's football team win the World Cup championship (with pregnancy). For the sake of her family, she chose to retire when her sports career was at its peak. Unexpectedly, her brain tumor was found not long afterwards.

She and Holiday met UCL, and have the same athletic talent and competitive spirit. It can be said that they are made of heaven and earth.

Now that his wife is ill, Holiday chooses to quit indefinitely regardless of his contract year. The team expressed understanding and all his teammates sent him text messages to him.

It can be said that this is the first ominous sign on the way to win three consecutive championships.

Without Holiday, the 76ers' back line is much weaker than before.

The only pure point guard left in the lineup is Rajon Rondo.

Although they are not as dependent on Holiday as Weisha, if Rondo does not perform well and needs someone to control the ball, there is a high probability that various misalignments will occur.

It can be predicted that Wei Xia's time to play point guard in the new season will increase significantly compared to before.

On October 30, 76ers watched other teams play the opening game at home.

Few defending champions don't play the opening game, and the 76ers are one of them. They just returned from China and the league also considered this when setting the schedule, so they arranged their new season to be the first match on November 1, with the opponent being the Oklahoma City Thunder.

This year's Thunder have reached a crossroads.

Next summer, Kevin Durant has the opportunity to become an unrestricted free agent. If he does not renew his contract with the Thunder, the free market will become extremely lively.

Wei Xia waited until they arrived in Philadelphia before calling Durant.

"kd, how are you feeling today?"

"Not good, so I will beat you up to vent my anger."

Wei Xia snorted: "You are becoming less and less humble now."

"This is my true side."

The more Durant lets himself go, the more Wei Xia has a new understanding of the power of the media.

I remember that he was also fucked through this way back then, and all the superstars were teased by the media.

Some people withstand the pressure, making these sarcastic media have to hide all their dissatisfaction and praise you again. And some people have become Wei Xia in 2008, James in 2011 and Durant now.

Some people remember that after James defected to his brothers in 2010, Durant brought his teammates from Oscar to the cover of "Si". How did the world praise him for being low-key and humble?

Since last year, the media in Russia have carried forward the tradition of local media that they must be the star of their own team and began to promote Westbrook's argument that he is better than him, and Durant's mentality changed immediately.

His changes continue.

Unlike Wei Xia and James, although they also vented their anger like a devil, they quickly controlled their emotions.

Durant tasted the forbidden fruit and found that it was quite pleasant to do this. Then, his character was broken and he couldn't go back from now on.

Fans hope that professional sports stars will always be innocent and enthusiastic and always maintain a innocent heart; however, professional sports are an industry that can only succeed and continue to succeed.

If one day they are not paranoid, do not make trouble or make trouble, then their aura that desires success may also disappear.

There is no way, this is the iron law of sports psychology. Most superstars' psychology is not that healthy; in fact, this is true for most tragic industries.
