Chapter 789 The Return of the Wind Son and the New and Old F4

During this period of time, Steve Nash is doing final rehabilitation training. Although his personal trainer and agent are not in favor of his forced comeback at the end of the season, it is difficult for people to make any real decisions. changed.Especially as the winner of the 2-time MVP, Nash's state of mind is not comparable to that of ordinary players.

He wants to do it, unless he is directly injured and reimbursed for the season, otherwise he will do it to the end.

Without this kind of mental will, how could you, as a white point guard with not particularly good physical condition, win the regular season MVP in one fell swoop?You have to know that during that time, it was still the era of "stars shining" in the league.Nash can achieve this level, his personal will, in fact, there is no need to question it.

And if the Spurs hadn't been a little "shady" back then, the Suns should have had a fierce fight with the Spurs.Maybe the ending still can't be changed, but it's more convincing than losing now.

But this is basketball, win or lose, win or lose, in a flash, in a thought, if you lose, you lose. Apart from complaining, you can only regret it.

But as a former quasi-super giant, Nash's biggest regret is the FMVP. As his ability declines and his age increases, he began to be the same as Marlon Payton back then, only asking for a ring, and it doesn't matter whether he has an FMVP or not.Otherwise, it would be too bleak to end one's career without precepts.

It's hard to be reconciled all my life.

I will regret it all my life.

Therefore, Nash risked his disgrace and came to Los Angeles from Phoenix to form the seemingly prosperous "New F4".

But everyone knows the ending. This was a beautiful mistake. It seems that as long as the Lakers are in F4, nothing good will happen. The "old F4" collapsed a year later, the Sharks traveled eastward, and the Lakers started rebuilding directly from a championship-level team. What about the "new F4"?Kobe tore his Achilles tendon, lost Bynum but only got Howard's "use rights" for one year, most of the team's players were traded, Nash was injured, Gasol was in a slump, and the original time and space Also began to enter the rebuilding period.

Last year's failure and Kobe's serious injury made Nash lose the idea of ​​pursuing the Larry O'Brien Cup. Therefore, in the original 13-14 season, he only played a symbolic 15 games, and then the contract was not fulfilled. He hastily withdrew from the NBA stage.One is that the body is dead, and the other is that the heart is dead.

The latter is more important than the former.

Otherwise, Nash can fight again no matter what.

But, what's the point of fighting again?It's just a waste of time.He's been in the NBA for 18 years, much longer than a lot of guys, so that's about it, and that's enough.

But now, because of Tang Qian's intervention, everything has turned around.

The Lakers team, which was unanimously looked down upon by the outside world, actually revived from the ashes and was reborn from the ashes in the midst of defeat!So far, they have achieved a proud record of 53 wins and 13 losses!And so far, with 19 consecutive victories, only the Miami Heat in the league are on par with them!Stimulated by this energy, Nash suddenly rekindled the flame in his heart, and within a short period of time, he made up his mind to come back forcibly!

Moreover, it is to stimulate the remaining energy of the body to fight with all its strength!
This means that no matter what the final result of this season is, labor and capital will not play in the future! ! !

This is my last desperate season!
It means to fight one last time with old bones!
This record, it seems, should be the record of last season, but it doesn't matter, as long as it is competitive.Otherwise, what if it is the luxury "F4" of last season?Isn't it the same dismal ending?

For this last season, the last fight, Nash did a lot of detailed personal analysis on the Lakers during his recovery.

Therefore, several basic conclusions were drawn:

[-]. It is a miracle to be able to achieve this result.

No matter how you look at this lineup before, it is a weak lineup. Kobe and Gasol, who have torn their Achilles tendon, can only return to the team after half the season. Most of them have a basic salary or a one-year short contract.Even if this kind of card is for Nash to choose, he probably won't be optimistic about it.So everything is unexpected.

24. The amazing individual performances of the 29th and [-]th.

If anyone could have imagined that the 35-36-year-old Kobe who returned from a serious injury could truly fully recover before the season, it must be a "brain fan".Because this kind of injury is almost fatal to athletes, no matter what kind of athlete they are.Those words on the Internet about the peak recovery and the return of the king are nothing but fanciful slogans for self-comfort.Nash is pessimistic.He feels that Kobe can maintain 7% of the state before the injury, which is good, and the more realistic situation is that he will fall even more.After all, the age at which he was injured was a few years older than Dominique Wilkins back then, which meant that his recovery ability would be even more compromised.In the face of serious injuries, it doesn't matter if you are Kobe or Jordan.This is a physiological rule, a medical rule, how can a mortal violate it?The Achilles tendon of the ace player was torn, the Lakers management did not keep the "Warcraft" as promised, and the depth of the team was completely wiped out because of the luxurious lineup formed last year.For this kind of team, let alone winning the championship, it is probably a miracle that they can enter the playoffs.

But after the start of the season, Nash almost choked on water with his performance on the 24th!Nash is a player in the same class as Kobe, so he has seen the growth and peak of the Black Mamba with his own eyes.But this season... It's obviously a little more peak than the peak he's ever seen, no, it's much more! ! !Currently averaging 40+ points per game! ! !This is simply insane! ! !If the Lakers hadn't scored Kobe's crazy points, they would not have won half of their current wins!

Secondly, the improvement on the 29th also surprised Nash.Although No. 29 was the leader in blocked shots and rebounds last season, the statistics are not so exaggerated, it can only be said to be excellent.Nash originally positioned him as Mutombo with off-ball offensive ability, but now it seems that this is completely "insulting" the former.

Scoring ability aside, the average of 21+ rebounds and 7+ blocks in this game alone is crazy enough! ! !

This is the average data per game that no one has been able to achieve since the 70s! ! !
Said his ceiling is Mutombo? ? ?It is obviously a big underestimation! ! !Blue-collar superstar, no, he may challenge the status of blue-collar superstar in the future! ! !As long as he can lead the team to win an MVP and FMVP.Even if he can't do it, he probably won't be able to escape the title of the strongest blue-collar superstar.This change has made the Lakers' inside defense stronger. What peak Howard?What pinnacle Warcraft?Compared with this season's No. 29, it's a level behind! ! !

The crazy performance of these two people alone made the Lakers suddenly jump out of the ranks of "fighting five scumbag teams".If the team didn't concentrate on keeping Howard from the beginning, if the team actively strengthened from the beginning, and the best trading opportunity was not delayed by that damn "Warcraft", these two people would have enough overall strength to build a strong team potential.

[-]. The record of the Lakers seems to be glamorous, but there are also many problems.

This is connected to the second point. It is precisely because of the super-intensive personal performance of Kobe and Tang Qian that the Lakers can achieve this record.However, the price is a huge overdraft for two people.From the current point of view, if either of the two falls, the season of the Lakers will end early, no matter what the final record is or whether they have entered the playoffs.The return of Gasol can be regarded as slightly offsetting the pressure of the two players on the field, but it is still not enough.

Because the rest of the Lakers are too weak.

Everything is as Gasol said before, the Lakers' team lineup this season is not built to compete for the championship.It is a "temporary corps" and "mercenary corps", a team that is temporarily put together to gather the necessary number of players.This kind of team will have no tacit understanding, no chemical reaction, no sacrifice and mutual recognition.Compare the San Antonio Spurs and you will know that it is completely different from one day to the next.

And D'Antoni in this team is almost a decoration, and he has not played a role at all.

What is the best and most straightforward way to solve this problem?
The answer is obvious. It is to come to a point guard master to be the No. [-] position. He can not only use his personal ability to forcibly connect and organize the team, but also let D'Antoni's tactical system and tactical ability be brought into play.Kill two birds with one stone.

In addition, Nash himself is a big heart and a sharp shooter. With him, the Lakers can have one more choice point at critical moments and disrupt the opponent's team's targeting arrangement.

Therefore, based on the above three considerations, Nash decided to make a forced comeback!

It's for the ring, it's for myself, and it's because the Los Angeles Lakers need such a person now.

And he is the key, the best choice.

But both his trainer and agent had some final words of advice for him:

Your physical function is not very good at present, and you have not fully recovered 100%. If you are injured again, it is estimated based on your age...

Nash's answer was simple:
If you are tired, you will hold on, if you have a small injury, you will be closed, and if you have a serious injury, you will fall on the field. I have a feeling that this season is my last chance.So, no matter what, whether it is 100% recovery or not, I will come back.

There are no arrogant words, but between the lines, it is full of an old bone's struggle for his last career.

Just when everyone thought that the Lakers would be defeated by the Spurs on March 3, ending their 19-game winning streak, on March 19, Steve Nash issued an official statement that he would play against the Spurs on March 3. , season comeback.

All of a sudden, the enthusiasm of all Lakers fans has been turned on, because the performance of the Lakers this season has exceeded psychological expectations, and now that Nash has announced his comeback, this...

TNT reporter Kate Marin took the lead in writing through her personal Twitter and Facebook:

The Son of Wind is back, and the new four kings of the Lakers set sail!

It is called F4 in China, and the Four Heavenly Kings in the United States. Suddenly, Kate Marin's opinion was liked and reposted by countless people, and it didn't take long for everyone in the basketball world to know it. TNT TV's "TNT Team" program dedicated a topic: Who is stronger between the "Four Heavenly Kings" of the 12-13 season and the "Four Heavenly Kings" of the 13-14 season?

The arguability of this topic suddenly surpassed ESPN's "Four Great Kings VSGDP Combination" on the opposite side, and it was at the level of comprehensive crushing.Immediately, multiple basketball forums and basketball boards launched voting and discussions, including across the ocean, and they all joined the hot discussion on this topic.

"This is such an awesome topic! I feel like it's going to be a bloodbath on the Internet!"

"Hey buddy, don't feel it, it's already started! I support the four kings of the 13-14 season!"

"Nash + Kobe + Gasol + Howard? It's so strong! I almost woke up laughing last year! So I choose the four kings of the 13-14 season!"

"Don't be so troublesome, just compare the data directly. This is the easiest way. Kobe in the 13-14 season is obviously better than Kobe in the 12-13 season. Gasol is temporarily flat or slightly declining. Nash is unknown. It depends on the East How should Tang compare to Howard?"

"I think Howard was stronger last season. After all, he is a combination of offense and defense, and he is not close in this regard."

“你特么是在逗我么？烫虽然得分能力目前不怎么样，但是霍华德上个赛季在湖人队也没有多好多强啊。难道你觉得5~6分的场均分差可以抵消差不多8~9个场均篮板球4~5个场均盖帽吗？是不是太乱来了点？”

"I also think Tang is stronger than Howard last season, at least for the Lakers, it is more important and irreplaceable! Look at the analysis article some time ago, the Lakers have No. 29 and no No. 29. , The difference in points per game is huge. I've never seen that with Howard before. The same at the peak."

"Fart! Howard is the number one center in the league! What's hot???"

"Okay, I know you're a Warcraft fan, but it's not Orlando now, is it? He's not the boss in Houston anymore."

Domestically, the tendency is obvious, directly one-sided, and the voting options for the 13-14 season crushed the 12-13 season.

Because of this incident, the TNT TV company's stock has appreciated a lot. Naturally, the promoter Kate Marin is favored by the higher authorities.

At the same time, ESPN regretted why it hadn't signed this young man before.

However, it's not too late to poach people now, is it?Anyway, ESPN is rich and powerful.

In the past few days, apart from the routine team training, Tang Qian spent time with Moses Malone, so he didn't have any rest and free time at all.However, the progress here is not fast. After all, this is not a direct "transmission of skills", and it still needs a lot of time and hard work.Moreover, he only broke through the scoring crystal brick not long ago, and now he wants to improve, and it will not be a while.

But practice has to be practiced. Quantitative changes before qualitative changes are equally important and cannot be ignored.

It is rare to have 5 days without a game, and it is too wasteful not to use it. Tang Qian has no other hobbies. The only thing he wants to do is to play and practice.But a few days later, there was still a phone call that pulled him out.
