After the championship parade, Thunder Team also officially transitioned to Off-season, although it was the last one among all League.
Everyone went back to their homes, parted ways, and began to enjoy the short summer vacation.
However, Chen, who was successful on the court but frustrated in love, encountered a wave of emotional crisis at the beginning of the holiday.
He broke up with Veronica.
The reason is also very simple. If we get together less and stay apart more, and lack the feeling of companionship, we are destined not to last long.
Chen's mentality is also very simple, just let nature take its course.
He felt like he had a bit of a scumbag temperament.
Because he didn't feel so sad, so painful, or so desperate to stay.
Maybe it's because, from the beginning, he was just attracted by sex, and then developed a little love over time.
The amount of emotion given is not too much, and naturally, when you pull away, there is not much pain.
The two broke up peacefully after meeting for the last time.
It's a good time to get together and a good time to part ways.
Time slowly came to June 15, and the NBA officially announced the results of this year's All-NBA Team selection.
The members of First Team are: James·Harden(Rockets), LeBron·James(Cavaliers), Anthony·Davis, Russell·Westbrough (Thunder), and Kevin-Durant (Warriors).
Westbrook Although there has been a slight decline in scoring data this season, it still managed to squeeze in with its excellent team record and continued average of triple-doubles per game.
Then there are Second Team: Giannis·Antetokounmpo(Bucks), Damian·Lillard(Trail Blazers), Joel ·Embiid (Philadelphia 76ers), Kawhi · Leonard (Spurs) and Demar-DeRozan (Raptors)
Fortunately, the score of Regular season was calculated, otherwise DeRozan would have been squeezed down.
The last one is Third All-NBA Team: Stephen·Curry(Warriors), Chen Xi(Thunder), Carl·Anthony·Towns(Timberwolves), Victor·Oladipo(Bulls) and Paul·George(Pacers)
Chen successfully advanced to All-NBA Team. Although it is only the third team, it can be regarded as a career milestone.
The only regret for Thunder this year is that after Butler made sacrifices for the team, his data dropped sharply, and All-NBA Team was not selected again. But fortunately, he still made it to the best defensive line.
First Team All-Defense: Oladipo(Pacers), Holiday(Pelicans), Butler(Thunder), Brow(Pelicans), Gobert(Jazz).
All-Defensive Second Team: Murray(Spurs), Covington(Philadelphia 76ers), Draymond Green(Warriors), Horford(Celtics), Embiid(Philadelphia 76ers).
After All-NBA Team was announced, Chen also completed an achievement again.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the achievement mission: All-NBA Team was selected for the first time]
[Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: Free Attribute Points 15 points, Specific Silver Badge 2 pieces]
"System, add 5 points of physical fitness and 10 points of passing."
[The point addition has been completed, and the host's physical attributes have been increased to 90]
[Point addition has been completed, and the host's passing attribute has been increased to 90]
"I want the badges Ankle Breaker and Ten Dimes."
[Congratulations to the host for getting the badge: Ankle Breaker (Silver)] (Increase the probability of shaking away and knocking down the opponent when Dribble is used)
[Congratulations to the host for getting the badge: Ten Dimes (Silver)] (Increase the hit rate of Teammates after receiving the ball in an open position)
After his passing attributes were improved, Chen Xi chose a badge of Ten Dimes as a bonus. Together with his Special Delivery, it can also help him support a certain amount of assists.
Of course, the main thing is to rely on his own offensive threats to create opportunities for Teammates.
For now, it's enough.
As for the attributes of Layup, which are still relatively low at present, just take your time. The main reason is that there is one Gold Badge and a lot of Silver Badge to support the situation. You can maintain the lower limit, so there is no need to rush.
After finishing adding points, Chen went to the gym again and immersed himself in training.
In a short period of time, there are no big events to run, and he still has something he wants to try later.
On June 22, the 2018 Draft was officially held.
The current Thunder is not the super tycoon who will hold dozens of lottery spots in the future. (Thunder After Playoffs lost consecutively, he successively sent away George, Grant, and Westbrook, and accumulated a total of 7 First Round picks and 4 draft exchange rights. Although it was because PG took the initiative to apply for a trade, he became Thunder. The trigger of Rebuilding, but after all, he got Alexander and a bunch of draft picks, Thunder is a sure profit but not a loss)
This year's Thunder, there are still only two Second Round signatures.
They are the 53rd and 57th picks respectively.
Chen was going to make an attempt. Before Draft, he found Presti and made an appointment to watch Draft with him.
He plans to show some ability to predict player growth in front of Presti to pave the way for Chen Xi to initially get involved in the management draft in the future.
Of course, it would be best if GM Presti could give Chen respect now.
First Overall Pick for the 2018 class will be released soon.
First Round No. 1, DeAndre·Ayton.
This person's name is quite resounding.
With the later Wiseman, it can be said that it was a bright moment.
Of course, the level of Ayton is higher than that of Wiseman. They are put together mainly because they are both high-ranked Interior. Both of them are trained by the team, but they are both stuck in the mud.
Ayton's situation is better. His offensive talent is so good. Offensive End has almost all the finishing methods in Three-Pointer's line. He has steady hands and accurate mid-range shots.
The problem is that his mystical style of play is criticized.
The top foul control at the same position, the lowest Free Throw number at the same position...
This guy doesn't play like a young black athlete at all, more like a white player over 35 years old.
"Chris, what do you think of the person Phoenix selected?" Presti looked at Chen Xi curiously.
He was a little surprised that Chen Xi actually found him to watch Draft with the team's uniform staff.
What's even more surprising is that when asked why he did this, he actually said that it was to prepare for a career change after retirement and to learn from experience.
Crazy?!!
You just finished the second year of your TM career and when your career is booming, you told me to prepare for retirement? Are you treating me like a fool?!!
But if you can't ask, forget it. Presti is too lazy to care about such trivial matters.
Chen Xi is now the team's hot super star, and to some extent, he is also the team's default successor, Westbrook.
