Basketball: starting from the nerve knife

Chapter 61: Opening the Door to a New World

Phil Jackson is not wrong, Thomas is indeed under a lot of pressure at the moment, perhaps, much more than Phil Jackson thought.

Chandler is averaging 8.6 points per game so far, worthy of his 17th pick in the first round, but the problem is… It’s too much different from Li Wan!

And this 17th pick in the first round was originally prepared for Li Wan!

In addition to the external calls to let him out of class, there is also a force within the management that has long been unhappy with him, and is preparing evidence that he has used his power for personal gain and engaged in “peach” games over the years, and is preparing to “send him away” in a wave.

Thomas panicked, but he had one last resort, picked up the phone at the table, he dialed a certain number he had wanted to dial for a long time, and after three busy rings, the phone finally connected.

“Man, what’s going on? ”

“Mitch, I heard that you also put Huaxia newcomers on the shelf, so I am willing to give two first-round picks, plus any players on the team, in exchange for Huaxia newcomers!” ”

The person who answered the phone was Kupchek, the general manager of the Lakers, who was a little surprised by Thomas’s attitude to the cauldron, but this chip, if you want to say that you are not moved, it is also nonsense, the New York Knicks are now in the second lowest position in the East, next year is the “draft year” recognized by the media, the New York Knicks, this almost certain high pick can definitely select a very talented player, plus a first-round pick and anyone in the Knicks, let alone change Li Wan, Even if you change an All-Star player, I’m afraid it’s just this chip, right?

Only half a month after the start of the regular season, Li Wan’s value has skyrocketed to this extent?

“Let me think again! ”

Kupchak hung up without hesitation.

“I’ll think again” is actually not wanting to.

Discerning people can see that Li Wan’s future worth is much more valuable than what Thomas has provided, basically, if it is not an All-Star player in his prime, he will definitely not be able to exchange him.

At this time, Thomas was completely desperate, covered his face with his hands, stood still for a long time, suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself fiercely, and his dark skin was almost red.

What did you say you were instigating, Thomas!

The slap is crisp and loud, but if the size of the slap represents his degree of remorse at the moment, then this slap, the sound is still too small…

After reading his physical test report, Li Wan, who felt that he was doing it again, let Kobe beat up again in the team training match, more ruthlessly than ever!

Finally, Li Wan collapsed on the floor panting, and Kobe Bryant coldly dropped a sentence: “The model show is indeed much better than the arena at 4 a.m., but that’s the price.” ”

  ￥%& amp; %…… & amp; *%*

Li Wan stared at Kobe’s back, and his heart was full of national essence.

Wow, is there really such a small pervert in this world?

However, now that you can keep up with him, this can also be considered progress, right?

In fact, Li Wan still wants to train with Kobe and hone his single defense ability, which he lacks.

But the problem is that the time chosen by this snake is too netherworld, the competitive spirit is still strong, the person is still paranoid, and training with him is to torture himself.

Forget it…

Orcs, never slaves!

On November 16, the Lakers sat home and welcomed the challenge of the Hawks.

The Hawks management has done a good job over the past few seasons, first picking up two potential stocks in the 2004 draft: Josh Childris, the 6th pick in the first round, and Josh Smith, the 17th pick in the first round; In the summer of 2005, the team acquired Joe Johnson from the Suns on a sign-and-trade basis, and selected Marvin Williams with the top pick.

At this point, the Hawks’ rebuilt core roster began to appear, and after the selection of Al Horford with the third pick in the first round of this year’s draft, the team gradually showed its strength.

Currently ranked ninth in the East, they will return to the playoffs after nine seasons.

Nine years…

Do you know how Atlanta fans have been going through these nine years?

They now only hope that this talented Eagles will last a little longer in their heyday, and even if they can’t win the championship, they won’t fall so quickly.

Phil Jackson didn’t have much for this game, and the Hawks climbed to the ninth position in the East, a huge improvement compared to themselves, but a huge gap compared to the Lakers.

Not a level contest at all.

Phil Jackson feels that even if it is only hard power, it can directly crush the opponent.

But, the Eagles don’t want him to feel, they want to feel for themselves.

All the players were in very good shape tonight, and the Lakers did not lead by seven or eight points until 5 minutes and 14 seconds into the third quarter, and before the situation could stabilize, the Hawks jumped out of a “nerve knife”, that is, the Josh Child Dris with the “explosive head”. With his “crooked machine gun”-style weird shooting posture, “Bang” scored 3 consecutive 3-pointers, leaving the difference by only 2 points.

To say that this guy is really good enough.

Although the body is thin, the physical explosion is not weaker than the other Josh of the Eagles.

And compared to the other Josh, obsessed with projection, but sparse in shooting. Once this Josh comes to the touch, it is very scary, like tonight’s “bang” to shoot three consecutive points, just a routine operation.

Speaking of scoring talent alone, he’s above Josh Smith.

It’s a pity that the defense is sparse, and the small forward position basically has nothing he can prevent.

Originally, at the end of this season, the Hawks immediately offered a 5-year 33 million contract extension, and after giving Josh Smith, who was in the same position as him, a 10 million annual salary, the Hawks management also issued him such a contract, which shows the team’s recognition of him.

It’s just that the temptation came at this time, and Olympiacos in Greece offered a contract worth more than twice that of the Eagles to grab people, while also promising a single-family villa, a full-time driver, a personal cook and even a maid, and as long as Childris wanted to return to the NBA, he could go at any time without a buyout fee.

Seriously, the European League uses these things to test NBA players, even those stars, I’m afraid they have to be confused, not to mention Childris, who has just got rid of the “child labor contract”, and his teammates who joined the team with him have taken tens of millions of contracts.

He decided to challenge his weaknesses.

As a result, Childries spent two years in Europe and was owed millions in wages, becoming the opposite example of the NBA’s gold rush to Europe.

However, for the people of the European League to work so hard to poach people is enough to prove that this person has some skills.

Once he feels it, the “convulsive” physique that can break out is one of his skills.

Phil Jackson faced this situation, but did not panic at all, and still wanted to laugh a little. Than “Nerve Knife”, sorry, I really haven’t been afraid this season!

“Lee, it’s time for your performance! ”

His voice was very loud, and Mike Woodson, the head coach of the Hawks next to him, heard it, Li Wan has been in great glory recently, and Woodson, who was a little worried, took the record of the assistant coach from the side, and looked ghostly.

2-of-7 shooting in the first half!

This state, no matter how optimistic, can not say okay?

This old man smoked cigars and smoked hi…

Woodson shook his head speechlessly.

Even if it is a “nerve knife” like Childris, if it is only this shooting percentage in the first half, basically he will not give much ball in the second half.

Phil Jackson actually said that his performance time has come…

When the game is over, he must remind Phil Jackson to see the brain department. This is somewhat of a sign of Alzheimer’s.

What surprised him even more was that Li Wan appeared, and the Los Angeles fans in the audience actually resounded with a warm cheer. Close your eyes and listen to this cheer, you will never imagine that this will be a rookie can enjoy.

Especially this rookie only shot 2 of 7 in the first half!

It seems that it is not just Phil Jackson who has nerves, but the entire Angelenos.

“Bang! ”

Coming up to the first attack, Li Wan seemed to have not yet shaken off the slump in the first half, and the shot was crisp and “refining” his sixth “fine iron” in this game.

Look at it!

Woodson had an unsurprising expression.

It’s time for this Angelenos, and Phil Jackson, to see the brain!

But the Lakers’ trust in Li Wan once again exceeded his imagination, and after this missed shot, they continued to make balls for Li Wan.

Li Wan’s mentality is also really good, his state is sluggish like this, and he is so decisive in his shot.

This time the cover given by the teammate was very good, Li Wan shot very calmly, the ball cut through an arc, straight into the basket.

In!

Live, exploded!

The Staples Arena was buzzing.

The people of Los Angeles shouted out the cheers that had been held in their throats before, shouting so that the entire arena seemed to shake slightly.

Pay attention to transpositioning!

Woodson kept spinning his hands to make the Hawks players on the court change defenses a little faster.

Li Wan in the running without the ball keenly noticed this, and he who received the ball at the top of the arc suddenly stopped, afraid that the Childis he projected quickly defended closely.

There is almost no distance, the two people are so close together, don’t say the shot, even the starting jump is very difficult.

But this is what Li Wan wants, the quick start brought by the excellent explosiveness, passing by the side of Childris, Li Wan went straight into the inside, faced Al Horford’s upward movement, slowed down, and made a shooting move. Horford wanted to step forward, but was afraid that he would suddenly accelerate again to break through his block.

In this psychological game, the ultimate winner belongs to Li Wan, who uses the time difference to score a layup and score.

Take two more points!

The sudden breakthrough with the ball made Woodson frown slightly, and while Joe Johnson singled Kobe Bryant in the mid-range, he also made up his mind not to change his defensive strategy, or to block his catch-and-shoot shots.

Li Wan was not polite at all, and once again used explosive power to break through the Hawks players who were defending him, passing the ball to Odom under the basket and assisting him to hold the ball into the frame.

A wave of 7-2 “scoring tide”!

Under the leadership of Li Wan, the Lakers stretched the gap to 7 points.

Woodson had to reach out and signal to the referee’s dugout to request a timeout. At the same time as the whistle sounded, the atmosphere in the audience became more and more fiery. He looked at the Lakers No. 91, who waved in response to Lakers fans, and said in his heart: He really adjusted his state back…

At this moment, Woodson’s gaze towards Phil Jackson changed.

He thought of Phil Jackson’s confident shouting at that time, as if he was more sure than Li Wan himself that this guy would definitely be able to play.

This is… The power of trust?

Woodson felt like he had opened the door to a new world and found the secret to Phil Jackson’s success!

I probably know how to write, I deleted this part of Liu Yifei, wrote as much foreign as possible, and then came to Liu Yifei, I will put it out that has been written, and it will be taken as an outside.
