Story of the Meritorious General Returning to the City
The free market in the summer of 2019 is very busy, including transactions. News about team transfers from S-level stars to B-level stars can be said to be dizzying for the media and fans. After the breakup, there are always many emotions when the city meets the stars for the first time. This article compiles the stories of the return of five stars who were missed by their home teams. Among them are legendary veterans who are about to retire and stars who have dedicated their entire careers to a single city. Players, and stars who have a special bond with the club they briefly met. I believe that this game will be very exciting in terms of the individual performance of the players and the atmosphere of the court. Fans who like NBA are advised not to miss the following days when the stars return home.
Vince Carter’s last Toronto memories: 1/28, 4/10
Demi-god Vince Carter has been away from Toronto for 15 seasons (oh my god!), but with Carter announcing that this will be the last year of his storied career, his return to Toronto is even more meaningful. VC played for the Raptors for 7 seasons and led them to the playoffs three times. This was the first prosperous period since the team was founded. His playoff showdown with the "God of War" Allen Iverson was even more unprecedented in the history of the league. classic.
More importantly, Carter's record, star power and entertaining style of play have further inspired the basketball style in Canada. A large number of current Canadian basketball stars are all cultivated because of this trend.
Although VC and Tyrannosaurus broke up unhappy, both parties have already let go of each other. I believe that in the last year of this year's tour, January 28th and April 10th, the last time they come to Toronto's home court, will be the most critical regular season between VC and the Raptors.
Kemba Walker Returns to the Hive: 11/07
Walker stayed with the Hornets for eight seasons in his career, during which the team reached the playoffs twice. Walker continues to break through his own ceiling in Charlotte. He has been selected to enter the All-Star Game for three consecutive seasons and was selected to the annual third team last season. But perhaps because the third team allowed him to qualify for the Super Max, it indirectly led to the failure to renew his contract with the Hornets during the summer vacation.
Walker's accumulated data with the Hornets ranks him first in team history in playing time (20,607 minutes), scoring (12,009 points), total three-point attempts and free throw attempts, and he also sets a single-game scoring record (60 points), Three-pointers made in a single game (10)...the first record in team history. In addition to his achievements on the court, Walker's interaction with the local community has also made him a favorite in Charlotte.
He is undoubtedly the best star since the team expanded in 2004. In terms of years of service and contribution to the local area, even with the past history of the Hornets, he can be said to surpass Alonzo Mourning, Larry Johnson, Glen Rice and others are the best star in team history, and he is the only representative figure in Charlotte to express comfort in the new era.
This year, Walker will return to the familiar Charlotte at the beginning of the season, and due to emotional factors, he and the interchanged point guard Terry Rozier will definitely stage an offensive and defensive battle that will not give in to each other.
Mike Conley returns to Memphis: 11/15
Conley and Kemba Walker have completely different playing styles, but their career stories are very similar. Both are self-selected and self-raised stars from small cities, and they also occupy one of the most important positions in the team's history. In addition to both being point guards, both of them are also frequent nominees and winners of the "Best Work Ethics" award. Conley also won the "Best Teammate Award" this season.
The teams they both belonged to also happened to be stuck in reinforcements due to high salary burdens in the era of big maximum salaries. In the end, Walker was not respected by his home team in the free market and left to join the Celtics, while Conley joined the Celtics before the summer vacation. After being traded to the Jazz, both of them entered the peak period of their careers and entered a team with higher talent and stronger combat power than the original team.
Perhaps Pau Gasol is the most "star" player in the history of the Grizzlies, but Conley is the top star of the most representative "Grit & Grind" period in the history of the team. When he returned to Memphis' home court, he was also the Grizzlies. It was a perfect scene for fans to bid farewell to the past glory and welcome the new generation.
Kawhi Leonard comes to collect the ring: 12/11
Toronto fans have mixed feelings about Kawhi Leonard. For him, the team sent away the team's historical star DeMar DeRozan, and Leonard even exceeded expectations and led the Raptors to win the championship in the first season after joining. His photo of beating the 76ers in the Eastern Conference semifinals became a classic in league history, and the Raptors even won the first championship in team history.
However, the idea of returning home did not seem to be shaken by these. Leonard left the North and returned to California during the summer vacation when the territory of three or four teams in the Western Conference was still shaken. Leonard's departure was a bit heartless, and the Raptors' assets were directly evaporated into thin air, but he didn't owe Toronto anything, because the Raptors' bet this year successfully allowed them to win the championship.
Even if it hasn't been brewing for a long time, I believe that Toronto fans will give Leonard the applause and cheers he deserves, but maybe when he starts to attack with the ball, Raptors fans will put away their joy and arm themselves and start to boo the current enemy.
D'Angelo Russell returns to the land of reinvention: 2/5
D'Angelo Russell, who has just finished his rookie contract, is not a star player with outstanding qualifications. He is not even one of the top three stars in the history of the Nets. However, this summer, Brooklyn will welcome the arrival of two giants, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. In the past, D-Lo and the Nets seemed to have a reinvention relationship for each other.
Before being selected for the All-Star Game in Brooklyn, Russell was a young guy carrying the Lakers' No. 1 ranking. It's just that both the team's top management and himself are in an unstable state. As the second pick who was traded in the third year of his career, what he needs is a place where he can display his talents in a short period of time.
Before D-Lo was selected to the All-Stars, the Nets were a team that had just been rebuilt from a five-year-old lineup and was slowly recovering with almost all the draft picks traded away. Russell not only restored their stardom, but also led them back to the playoffs. Maybe this is just a two-year relationship, and both parties have found a better destination after breaking up, but I believe this meeting again will bring a touch of warmth.
