I'm really strong in basketball

Chapter 25·The Only Savior of Los Angeles·
The Lakers rushed to Memphis on the second day to challenge the Grizzlies.

This is also the last opponent of the Lakers' four-game streak.

The boss of the Grizzlies is the third-year Paul Gasol (the 3 third-round pick).

This season, Gasol averaged 17.7 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.7 blocks per game. This data is indeed too thin for a team leader.

However, there are many good helpers around Gasol.

出色的3D球员詹姆斯·波西、肉盾中锋杰克·查卡利亚斯、98年7号秀“白巧克力”贾森·威廉姆斯、2000年5号秀迈克·米勒、96年7号秀洛伦岑·怀特、01年6号秀肖恩·巴蒂尔……

In addition, the Grizzlies have the best general manager and the best head coach.

Now the general manager of the Grizzlies is the "logo man", the famous Lakers Jerry West.

The guy who brought O'Neal to Los Angeles and traded All-Star center Divac for rookie Kobe Bryant.

Whether it is a player career or a general manager career, West is the best. His strength made the owner Bass fearful, so he resorted to all tricks to force West to leave the Lakers.

The head coach of the Grizzlies is Hubie Brown, an old coach with more qualifications and prestige than Larry Brown and Gregg Popovich.

After the old Brown took office, he played team basketball in the Grizzlies and played the famous ten-man rotation.

In just one season, he turned the Grizzlies from 28 wins to 54 losses and achieved an excellent record of 50 wins and 32 losses.

Already a strong team in the league.

Of course, even so, the Grizzlies don't deserve much attention from the Lakers.

The Lakers this season are so invincible!

11 month 10 day.

Liu He came to the locker room early, but found that Kobe was sitting on the seat with a gloomy face, showing a look that strangers should not approach.

Fisher, Wharton, Medvedenko and others sat obediently in their seats, each of them silent, not daring to say a word, not even to make a big movement of breathing.

What's wrong with this?
In the last game, Kobe did not play well, which made him feel bad.But after extra training, didn't this guy feel relieved?

Why, after only two days, Kobe's emotions exploded again.

Liu He looked at Wharton suspiciously.

Wharton carefully took out his mobile phone, made some manipulations, and handed it to Liu He.

Liu He took the phone and looked it up.

This is an article about the last game, the post-match press conference.

The article describes some speeches made by Phil, O'Neill, and Malone.

First, Phil: "We played our own rhythm tonight, played our own tactics, let every ball go through Shaq's hands, so we won."

Phil's speech is quite normal, although it seems that there is something wrong with careful taste, but it can also be said that you think too much.

But O'Neill's speech made Liu He call it bad.

After being frustrated for several games, O'Neal finally played a dominant game and handed over a super data, which can be described as high-spirited.

So O'Neal publicly declared after the game: "There is only one savior in Los Angeles, and that is me, Shaq O'Neal!"

Liu He: "..."

Why do you have to do this?

If it were Liu He himself, he would just make a fortune in silence.

But O'Neill has a substantial advantage, and he still wants to suppress Kobe verbally. Isn't this deliberately stimulating Kobe?
As far as Kobe's competitive personality is concerned, how can he bear it?
Changing to Liu He took advantage of it, and he must have said: "Oh, my data belongs to everyone, especially Kobe. Without Kobe helping me to contain the outside opponents, I would not be able to do this. We are a team, we are a family, we are good brothers... that's it."

If O'Neal said that, even if Kobe suffered a disadvantage, he would feel much more comfortable.

Alas, why, this is O'Neill!

Malone's speech later added fuel to the fire.

"We're in great shape, no issues. On the court, Shaq is going to lead us to wins. In the locker room, I'm going to make everyone fit in. I have that experience, you know. That's it!"

In a short paragraph, Malone named O'Neal the boss of the team, and then named himself the boss of the locker room.

Why are you so crazy?

You're a senior in the league, respected, but that's with the Jazz.

In the Lakers, you are an old star who came to hug his thigh and win the championship.

Don't talk about Kobe, ask the veterans of the Lakers Grant, Fox, and even Fisher if they agree with you.

We've been playing for Los Angeles for so many years, and we have to listen to you, an old guy who came to hug his thigh, an outsider?

If you look at Payton again, he also came here to compete for the championship, and Payton put himself in a very good position.

Payton knew that he was an outsider and came to assist Kobe and O'Neal. He tried not to get involved in the conflicts between the two. He was usually friendly to the old Lakers players, and even more friendly to the newcomers of the team, especially Liu He, a potential rookie who often coached alone.

Compared with people, why is the gap so big!

Compared with Payton, Malone has no self-knowledge at all.

But think about it, Malone and Kobe seem to have had conflicts for a long time.

98 All-Star Weekend.

Kobe Bryant on the stage of the main game.

In an offensive round, Kobe got a chance to face his idol Jordan, which made Kobe extremely excited. He wanted to be one-on-one with Jordan too much.

But at this moment, Malone ran to the outside and set a pick-and-roll for Kobe.

Kobe was also young and frivolous, and didn't know how to measure, so he scolded at that time: "Put away your damn pick-and-roll, get out!"

This made Ma Long lose face and was extremely upset.

Later, Malone complained to Western All-Star coach George Karl: This game can't be played, and a young man told me to get out.

The two formed a bond since then.

Some time ago, the team was in the honeymoon period, so there was no movement between the two.

But in the last two games, the core dispute between O'Neal and Kobe has once again emerged. Malone can't wait to stand up, express his attitude, and suppress Kobe.

In this way, it is understandable why Kobe's face is gloomy.

Liu He couldn't help shaking his head, after all, he couldn't escape this catastrophe.

Liu He sat in his seat, changed his clothes, and turned on the system.

Before playing against the Spurs, Liu He got 5 talent points, which he still has.

After thinking about it carefully, Liu He still put all his talent points on speed.The original 76 points, plus 5 points, became 81 points, which has reached the level of a star.

This is also in line with Liu He's positioning in the Lakers.

In the Lakers team, Liu He has almost no chance to hold the ball. His main scoring methods are fixed-point three-pointers, catch-and-shoot shots after running positions, and air cuts...

Speed ​​pays the most for the latter two scoring methods.

And it can also enhance Liu He's defense, allowing him to better keep up with some speedy striker opponents.
