20 17 what are the major events in basketball?

This year is a popular year. Zalavin and aaron gordon's dunks ignited the cold night sky in Toronto. The Warriors who won 73 games in the regular season led the trend of small balls, while the Cavaliers dominated the revenge battle of the "deciding game" in the finals. High contracts and star transfers have also turned the free market upside down.

This is a year of farewell. The older generation of stars retired in their own way. We will remember Kobe Bryant's 60-point curtain call and the tears in Duncan's eyes when he hung the No.21jersey. Yao Ming, O 'Neill and Iverson gathered in the Hall of Fame. The stars take away the years, and basketball has no borders.

This year, we are happy to welcome and leave with confidence. There are too many events that affect our mood in 20 16 basketball.

We use ten pictures and ten stories to review this past year.

"Mamba is out"

"Mamba is out!" At the Staples Center, Kobe walked on the purple and gold floor in a jersey with the numbers "24" and "8" embedded, shooting thousands of shots every day. That day was the curtain call performance of his 20-year Lakers career. In the boiling mood of the audience, Kobe hit the last free throw in his 20-year career, which was his 60th point in this game.

Because such a career seems to be too long, many people forget Kobe's first goal in the NBA and stand calmly at the free throw line. In his farewell book, he wrote down all the emotions behind the sentence "Mamba came out": "Never mind, I am ready to let you go. I just want you to know so that we can enjoy every second left. We can understand that no matter what happens in the future, we will always keep our original heart. "

Keep your heart, so be great. After Kobe Bryant, Duncan, Garnett, ray allen, Stoudemire and others also announced their retirement in the same summer. They took away the "initial heart" of a generation without knowing it.

CBA Finals, full of twists and turns

"How dare you hit my dad?" After the third game of CBA Finals, Han Dejun, who had already entered the hotel, heard the noise outside, including the voice of teammate Guo. When Han Dejun rushed out, he was caught by the Liaoning team Jie Jun next door: "Go back, don't reason with them, you can't reason."

The cause of this riot is said to be a dispute between fans in Sichuan and Liaoning. Later, a Liaoning player who hit it took part in a scuffle, and Guo fought to protect his father and fans, which made things worse. The player was suspended, but the most loss outweighed the gain was He who played the "injured party". He broke his right hand, the most serious injury. After the storm, the suspended players were suspended and the punished players were punished, and the championship still had to draw a conclusion.

In the most important game of the whole season, a farce that gambled on the player's career and the reputation of the league made CBA discover its own shortcomings. If Han Dejun had been detained by additional security guards, Guo and all the restless troublemakers at the scene would have been stopped in time, and the "jokes" in League A would have ceased to exist.

The annual NBA drama, the Cavaliers get back the protagonist.

At the moment when the referee blew the whistle, Curry's mood instantly fell to the bottom.

He and his Warriors won an unprecedented 73 wins in the regular season, reversed the Thunder in the Western Conference finals 1-3, and led the defeated Cavaliers by 3- 1 in last year's finals. When the second championship was close at hand, they were forced to the desperate situation of "grabbing seven"

In the sixth game, Curry was blown for six fouls for the first time. When leaving the field, he held the ball high above his head, as if to vent his anger and hit the floor. He has completely lost the pride and confidence of two regular season MVP, and the Cavaliers fans around him gloated over him and said some worse things. At this moment, the home of the Cavaliers has completely smelled the fragrance of champagne.

Love didn't let Curry score a fatal three-pointer, Owen became the savior of life and death, and James realized his original promise to Cleveland. The leading role and supporting role have undergone earth-shaking changes, and drama is always the most charming charm of NBA.

Rio Olympics, Gong's question mark

"My term ended after the Olympics. After the Olympic Games, I went back to work in the center and then continued to work in the sports meeting management department. After retirement, I did something to train young people. It's good. Anyway, I will do this all my life. "

At the Rio Olympic Games, Gong once again hastily took office as the head coach of the national team. He sat on the sidelines and watched the men's basketball team lose to the United States in the first game of 62- 1 19, just like the difference and result of the game. Gong knew his mission and destination before the trip began. But what he didn't know was that Xin Lancheng, the director of the Basketball Association sitting next to him, couldn't give him an explanation when he left office.

After the Olympic Games, Gong found himself excluded from the basketball association's system, but he felt powerless in all aspects of the national men's basketball team. "I will do this all my life", Gong's heavy wishes for the development of basketball in China, is 20 17 still ignored?

Yi Jianlian returns to NBA.

Yi Jianlian sat in the Lakers' office and signed an NBA contract again after five years. Two other young names appeared in the draft a few months ago. Qi zhou and Wang Zhelin were selected by the Rockets and Grizzlies respectively. In the summer, I fought side by side with Yi Jianlian in Rio, and then I didn't have the following.

Yi Jianlian put on the Lakers 1 1 jersey. In a few preseason games, he made little contribution, but gained a lot. As Yao Ming said: "The United Arab League has a chance to return to the NBA. I hope you don't just pay attention to his playing time and scores. The United Arab League will let people re-invest their goals overseas. There are good things overseas for us to learn from and absorb. The United Arab League will keep this window open. "

After returning to CBA, Yi Jianlian publicly took off his shoes to protest. Perhaps it was a bit rude to open the window for CBA, but on the road of professionalization of domestic leagues, we need to stand up more warriors like Yi Jianlian.

From 76ers to center glory, I believe in the process.

Halfway through the 20 16- 17 season, many people have looked at the 20 16 rookie with disappointed eyes, and their leader Ben Simmons has also lost the chance to correct his name. The 76ers chose Simmons from Australia in the draft and came to the 76ers Arena to report that Simmons hooked up with ten fingers of Joe Embiid, an old high school acquaintance, and their eyes seemed to be exchanging joy. "Let's do something big together."

As a result, Simmons suffered a fracture in the preseason, and since then, he has failed to live up to Embiid's expectation that the media repeatedly stressed that "I want to play with Simmons". Embiid, who has been recuperating for two years, thought that the story of the 76ers had come to an end, but this season they are still at the bottom of the East. But in Embiid's few playing time, the league saw the big man's ambition.

Hassan whiteside said that Embiid talked to himself about the glory of revitalizing the center. In that era when the three-point trend pushed the inside players out of the three-point line, Embiid was determined to become the countercurrent of the league: "I am not a three-point shooter, I don't like to shoot so many three-points, I want to rule the restricted area." Maybe all the fans have to do is "believe in this process" like the 76ers.

Every summer, we are separated and reunited.

When Wade made a transfer decision in the eventful summer of 20 16, Whiteside, who was probably playing 2K, dropped his hand. After all, Wade really put on the bull jersey and enjoyed the cheers and love of Chicago villagers. He almost passed the ball wrong. The free market is full of countless coincidences. For example, Durant joined the Warriors who defeated him in the Western Conference finals, and the Warriors and Mavericks "changed blood". Howard left Harden to travel eastward, and Jeremy Lin returned to new york, which was the starting point of his brilliant career.

It's too late to envy Conley for winning the thickest contract in history. Senior quality guards in the east are looking for a more suitable home for the next stage of their career. Wade used to be the totem of the Heat. He wore a rose coat. When Ross grabbed the ball, he caught a glimpse of the familiar red shadow in the corner of his eye, without a trace of nostalgia: "I want to end my career in new york."

The Knicks gathered Anthony, Ross, Noah and Polzingis, a group of former or current all-star customers, and Wade was also surrounded by Rondo and Butler, but just as the Knicks players had not yet figured out the true meaning of "Jackson's triangle offense", when 20 17 came, the Bulls echoed the Cavaliers from afar, and Wade was not sure whether he could continue to fight with his brother James.

A hall of fame without ethnic and cultural differences.

"After playing for two years, Yao and I talked." shaquille o'neal remembered the past of his youth and never thought that he would smile and put on a big coat for Yao Ming one day. In the era of making waves in the restricted area, he suddenly entered a huge ship from China. He used brute force to try to destroy all the enemies who invaded his own waters, but eventually became a landscape in each other's lives.

Basketball match is not only confrontation and friction, but also can eliminate cultural differences, so that two great opponents can establish a friendship of mutual appreciation. Once tit for tat, now join hands in the Hall of Fame. For more than ten years, O 'Neill tripped over a line on the set, and Yao Ming became a typical wealthy businessman. O 'Neill gloated over putting on a yellow coat for his old friend and patted his chest: "The uniform of the Hall of Fame suits you very well."

Yao Ming is a successful example of China's sports culture export. At first, there were many opponents like O 'Neill in the NBA, but this did not prevent him from finally going to the Hall of Fame and receiving applause from another group of celebrities. Sports have no national boundaries, and more importantly, it can break the ice of culture.

Gemini, no matter how beautiful, will leave each other's gravity.

"It's not good for you to take refuge in anyone. Choose a warrior." Russell Westbrook walks to the free throw line. Maybe he has been playing with this sentence. Durant silently looked at his back, his every move, in front of familiar people, his position may be a bit strange. In the competition of 1 1, he didn't say a word to his former partner; Maybe he hasn't spoken to his teammates in Oklahoma since he announced his transfer in the Star Stand in the summer.

Fortunately, Robertson resolved the deadlock, so he just sat on the bench and spat garbage with Durant. Westbrook scored 20 separation games leisurely, making the Thunder lose to the Warriors on the road, as if he had completely filled all emotions with a vicious block against Durant. Durant looked back and found Westbrook cut his own ball, but smiled and shook his head.

Westbrook 20 16 scored 30 triple-double data, which few people can complete in history; As for Durant, he also enjoys the team atmosphere in which the Warriors share the ball selflessly. No one can say for sure whether "Thunder Gemini" is mutually exclusive or mutually fulfilling.

The three-point revolution, don't stop.

At the moment when Stephen Curry bypassed the pick-and-roll and made an arc shot, the audience in Oracle Bone Inscriptions Arena stood up and watched the parabola rush to the ceiling. Hill found that even if he jumped, he couldn't keep up with the opponent's hand speed. Moore just opened his mouth and prayed that the ball would hit the rim when it fell.

However, they are destined to be the background of history. In this way, Curry hit a three-pointer of 13 in this game, just like a blockbuster, which ignited the strong smell of gunpowder in the whole Bay Area. 10 minutes ago, Curry dropped his braces and asked the referee for a technical foul.

All three-point records should belong to the best three-point shooter in history.
