Almighty legend life

Chapter 613: The Opening of the Preseason

"Hey man, you broke my heart, why don't you come to LA, you know how much I want you to come?"

As Liu Han expected, shortly after he resumed training in Dallas, O'Neal called him to complain.

"Shaq, don't hold your throat and talk, your voice makes me really tremble, you know, the current Lakers team is not suitable for me, I heard about your team's actions, I think Gary Payton and Karl Malone probably wouldn't welcome me to the Lakers."

When Liu Han signed with the Mavericks, the Lakers also made a big move this year. They signed Gary Payton and Karl Malone, both of whom were "persecuted" by Liu Han and Jordan. At the end of their careers, they hoped to go to the Lakers to hug O'Neal's thigh for the championship. The attitude of the two of them towards Liu Han is definitely not welcome.

The Lakers now add O'Neal, Karl Malone, Gary Payton, and Michael Finley, who is getting better and better. The lineup is so strong that it can be called the top of the league. Karl Malone's status has declined due to age, but it has to be admitted that neither of these two "fathers" is a fuel-efficient lamp.

"Man, they came to hug my thigh. Of course it's different if you come. I believe we can still sweep the league if we work together again."

"Shaq, I can only say sorry again, I really don't want to go to the Lakers."

"Okay, buddy, then I can only wish you a happy time in Dallas, but you have to be careful, I won't show mercy in the game."

O'Neill heard the determination in Liu Han's words, so he stopped persuading Liu Han.

Liu Han's competitive state gradually returned to its peak state after the team's players returned to practice together. Except for Anthony Walker and Tony Delco, everyone else in the team was conquered by Liu Han's strength.Especially some young players, they had doubts about Liu Han's state before, but after being "educated" by Liu Han one by one in training, their attitudes have undergone a huge change, even Josh Howard, who has a weird personality I dare not blow stabs in front of Liu Han again.

Liu Han's compatriot Xue Yuyang also arrived in Dallas in late September. Xue Yuyang is extremely grateful to this "senior" who solved his big problem, and at the same time admires the other party's ability. He learned something from Han. This "sincere" young man from Jiaozuo put his troubles behind him and devoted himself to the training. Liu Han managed to give some of his experience to his "new little brother" .

The team's players began to enter active joint training, while the team's management and head coach Don Nelson were struggling with the team's lineup. The first and most important point was to clean up the "disharmonious factors" in the team Going out, for Anthony Walker and Tony Delco, who have strong conflicts with Liu Han, the Mavericks management's opinion is to trade out as much as possible.

"Steve, did those two guys trouble Liu in training again?"

Although Don Nelson doesn't go to the training hall very often, his assistant coach Steve, who is in charge of daily training, knows the team well.

"I warned them that after the conflict with Liu Han on the first day, it has been relatively quiet recently, but Anthony Walker is sometimes very independent in training games, never passing the ball to Liu Han or cooperating with Liu Han, I think these two people It is not appropriate to stay in the team, and it should be cleared out as soon as possible, so as not to affect the quality of the team's training."

"Well, you are right, Steve, I have decided to hand over the team's possession to Liu in the future. If other people are unwilling to cooperate with Liu, it will indeed affect the team's training and competition."

For Tony Delco, the Mavericks are easy to deal with. The basic salary signed by the opponent, and in terms of strength, Delco is also considered good. He is suitable as a good trading partner and can trade for the team. The contract is tens of millions, and the Celtics have produced a series of good statistics in the past few years, which is quite bluffing, but if you want to trade, you can't find an equivalent trade partner. We can only find a way to conduct three-party or even four-party transactions.

Tony Delco's deal was quickly settled. At the insistence of coach Nelson, the Mavericks traded Tony Delco for this year's rookie Kyle Korver of the Philadelphia [-]ers. In Nelson's vision, this pure The shooter can open up space for Liu Han very well in the offense. With Liu Han, Nelson's current tactical ideas are all around Liu Han.

The Anthony Walker deal was more difficult. The Mavericks brought in the Philadelphia 04ers and the Miami Heat for a three-way deal. The Mavericks sent Anthony Walker and the [-] lottery-protected first-round pick. Key and Willie Green, the Heat sent potential rookie Lamar Odom.

The Mavericks got Lamar Odom and veteran Aaron McGee, the Sixers got Anthony Walker, and the Heat got Willie Green and the Mavericks' picks. Everyone felt that the three-way deal was profitable.

Neither Anthony Walker nor Tony Delco thought that the team would "clean up" them all before they could trouble Liu Han.

The players of the Mavericks also saw how high Liu Han's status is in the team. Even Nowitzki, Nelson's favorite student, had to admit that he was only the second in command.

On October 2003, 10, the 6-03 season NBA preseason game officially started. This year's Mavericks game was held on the first day of the preseason game.

This game has attracted much attention, and the league has also carried out some promotion, because this game will be the first game of the superstar Liu Han who has been away from the NBA for several years and returns to the NBA.

On October 10, at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas, under the attention of nearly 6 fans, Liu Han once again set foot on the NBA court.

To the surprise of the media and fans, Liu Han started the game directly, and took the position of the team's brain - the point guard. This made many people unable to guess what Nelson was thinking. After all, in They think that Liu Han has been away from basketball for many years, his strength should have declined sharply, and the Mavericks should slowly let Liu Han adjust.

But what they don't know is that Liu Han's basketball strength has not declined at all, on the contrary, it is even better than before.

"Let us welcome the returning king, the almighty fighter Han from the East——Liu." With the roar of the opening DJ, Liu Han ran into the brand-new stadium, and he raised his hands high, like a king patrolling his territory.

"Finally, I'm back again, here will be my new territory."

Liu Han's eyes are firm and persistent.
