Standing pretty old

Chapter 210 That Man's Name Is Kobe

On February 2008, 2, the Miami Heat and the Phoenix Suns completed the transaction.The Suns sent Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks for Shaquille O'Neal.

This is destined to be a deal that does not lose to the Celtics to form BIG3 and the Lakers to get Gasol.

The Sharks traveled west again. Although he was older and his strength had declined, as the league's top center, no one dared to underestimate the huge lethality of this fat man in the paint.

The Suns management is also gambling. The team has lost consecutive playoffs to the Spurs with high-quality insiders. They need stronger insiders to contain opponents.

For this reason, they even did not hesitate to change their own small ball attributes.

Once it comes to the playoffs, no one can predict whether the lazy Shaquille O'Neal will reincarnate as the bloodthirsty shark.

However, many experts are not optimistic about the deal.

The Suns are a fast-paced team, but the Sharks are old and fat. Can he keep up with the fast-paced Steve Nash?
No one can give a definite answer yet, only time will tell.

However, the traded shark confidently said to the media: "I can adapt to the offensive rhythm of the Suns, and you will see a big diesel engine running at high speed."

After talking about O'Neal, it is natural not to mention the other party who was traded.

Ma Liang (Marion) saw the news of his being traded on TV, and then he received a text message from the Suns management. The hacker felt that he had been fooled.

But no matter what, the hot beaches of Miami are waiting for him.

As for the Heat, they have completely desire for results this season.

The No. 08 pick in the summer of [-] is the goal they are chasing. Other than that, other things are not important.

Two consecutive big transactions have had a huge impact inside and outside the league.

No matter how you look at it, David Stern has further expanded the influence of the NBA through these transactions.

This Jew is smart enough, he always spares no effort to run the league and make it the best league in the world.

O'Neal traveled west again, which means that he will again meet Kobe Bryant many times in a season.

There are too many grievances and grievances for the once classic-OK combination.

They have won three championship trophies together and once led the Lakers to become the first dynasty team in the new century.In those few seasons, they were truly the strongest team on the surface (Jie Lun fainted in the toilet).

Needless to say, O'Neal's greatness, his partner back then, Kobe, who is now faintly known as the No. 1 in the league, is naturally not easy.

Kobe Bryant was born on August 1978, 8 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.Of course, the people of Philadelphia have always had a love-hate relationship with this fellow, because he objectively prevented AI from winning the championship trophy.

His father, Joe Bryant, is also a professional athlete in the NBA. When Kobe was 6 years old, he went to Italy to play, so Kobe learned to speak Italian and Italian at a very young age. Spanish. (Curvy, rotten, please automatically fill in the picture of him flirting with Mrs. Jia in Spanish)

In 1991, Kobe returned to the United States to study, and in 1996, when he was 17 years old, he participated in the NBA draft.

He was selected by the Hornets with the 13th overall pick and then traded to the Lakers. (In fact, an agreement was reached before the draft)
Subsequently, O'Neal made his first trip to the west, Kobe gradually grew up, the OK combination gradually took shape, and they finally ushered in the glorious Lakers dynasty.

After the three consecutive championships, as Kobe gradually matured, he looked down on the lazy O'Neal more and more, and the contradiction between the two always existed.

In the summer of 2003, Kobe Bryant's pain - the Eagle County incident broke out.

For a while, Kobe became the most unpopular figure in the league, and Adidas also cut off the contract with Kobe.

No one knows whether O'Neal said anything to Kobe in private, but the immature Kobe Bryant said the last sentence that should not be said: "O'Neal did it too, but no one found out."

If Kobe and O'Neal can maintain a minimum of unity before, then after that, it will be difficult for the two to return to the past.

Frankly speaking, O'Neal did not lend a helping hand when Kobe was troubled, but in fact, a proud guy like Kobe Bryant would not open his heart to anyone.

When the estrangement accumulated day by day, the conflict between the two became public.

In the end, F4, which gathered O'Neal, Kobe, Malone, and Payton, lost to the Detroit Pistons in the finals.

This fully proves that when a team has no atmosphere of unity, no matter how strong their lineup is, there is no way to win the championship.

Subsequently, O'Neal asked for a big contract without hesitation on the issue of contract renewal, and the Lakers uniform team felt that O'Neal had declined, coupled with his lazy style, finally let the Lakers trade him to Miami.

The OK group was disbanded. After Eddie Jones and Nick Van Exel, Kobe once again acted as the "villain" who drove away his teammates. Standard dark volute (also black my family).

Kobe then gradually entered the pinnacle of his career. In the three seasons after he left O'Neal, he averaged 27.6 points, 35.4 points, and 31.6 points per game, and was elected as the league's scoring leader for two consecutive years. The second highest single-game scoring record-81 points.

Although, in terms of personal data, Kobe has reached the peak of his career, but in terms of personal team leadership, he lost to the Suns led by Nash twice in a row, stopping in the first round of the playoffs.

This season, Kobe even made an application to trade himself at one point, but of course he withdrew the application, and then Gasol came to the Lakers.

The Virgo Kobe Bryant once again persistently launched an impact on the O'Brien Cup. This time, he just wanted to prove that without O'Neal, he can still win the championship.

Just looking at Kobe's resume, it is not difficult to find that this is a paranoid and lucky man.

He was picked up by the Lakers at a young age, and he was considered to be the core of the Lakers' future from the very beginning. Even if he once made a trade application, he did not break up with the Lakers in the end.

To be honest, Kobe's complexion is a little darker, otherwise someone should jump out and say that he is the illegitimate son of Lakers owner Jerry Buss.

But the fact is that Old Buss loves Kobe no less than his own son.

Looking away from Kobe, move back to Atlanta. Two days later, the Hawks will welcome the Lakers led by Kobe at home.

This is also the first time Ruan Erniu has faced off against the top scorer in the league.

In the game against the Nets yesterday, the Lakers ushered in the combination of Gasol and Kobe for the first time. As expected by most experts, Gasol seamlessly connected to the Lakers' triangle offensive system and easily defeated the Nets.

Today, it's the Hawks' turn to verify the true level of this Lakers team.

As the biggest dark horse in the half-season, the young Atlantan hopes to prove his strength by competing with strong players.

Interestingly, before the game, neither side had any intention of fighting with each other. They both praised each other's opponents. It seems that the relationship between the two teams is very harmonious.

This must be an illusion. No matter which side it is, they are full of vigilance against each other, just because their ultimate goal is the same.
