Chapter 23 Preparing for the Lakers
After the game against the Raptors, Lu Yuanzhi still did not get free attributes.

There is no way, Adelman is now using Lu Yuanzhi as the defensive leader, who is he facing?Duncan, Maddie, Carter!

Do you want to freeze them defensively or blow them offensively?

Very blue!

In the past, Lu Yuanzhi would have had to worry about his own development speed, but now he has no time to think about these issues.

After playing the Raptors on the 13th, on the 14th and 15th, Lu Yuanzhi once again invested in Micah's targeted training. According to the problem of the lack of offensive routes exposed by the Raptors, Micah erected flagpoles all over the court. Ask him to go around these pins and attack the basket on his runs.

Of course, big sticks and pads covered with thick sponge are also essential. These props will attack Lu Yuanzhi's body the moment he makes a shot, destroying his center of gravity, and simulating physical confrontation on the court.

Two days of training gave Lu Yuanzhi a new understanding of the end of confrontation, and the system also gave a 2-point training reward in a timely manner, changing the value of the end of confrontation to 51.
Finally, one value is more than half, which is not easy.

On the 16th match day, after participating in the team's joint training, Lu Yuanzhi began to practice again, wanting to strike while the iron was hot and get another 1 point of attribute, but the system did not follow his wish, and the final value remained at 51.

In the evening, the Bulls visited Arco Arena.

The Bulls collapsed after Jordan retired and have been rebuilding in the past few years.

However, the Bulls lineup today is very interesting. The main center Brad Miller will join the Kings in a few years. After Divac's first-hand training, he has become a model of floor center, and he is superb in high-post support.

But what's more interesting is that the Bulls' two center forwards are two rookies this year, Lu Yuanzhi's classmates at the same level.

The Bulls themselves selected Eddie Curry with the No. 4 pick in the first round. He is 2 meters tall and weighs 13 kilograms. He is a standard center with a standard size. His tonnage is even a bit like a supermodel. I don’t know why the Bulls chose him. They are just hoarding. Against O'Neal?But you have to break out of the east first.

Compared with the other famous Curry, this Curry can be said to be the complete opposite. His shooting range is only at the basket. His finishing and pie-eating abilities are not bad. He has a 67% shooting rate at the basket, but as long as he leaves the penalty area, he will become harmless to humans and animals.

Another classmate of the same class is much more famous. Tyson Chandler, a boxing champion, made great contributions to the Mavericks' future championship. He was selected by the Clippers with the second overall pick in the first round this year and was directly traded to the Bulls. Team.

The boxing champion is 216 centimeters tall and weighs 109 kilograms. He was once the No. [-] high school student in the United States, but he is well known to the Chinese people. Except for the Mavericks' subsequent championship, he appeared in a large number of Yao's interviews.

"I have not been dreaming of entering the NBA since I was a child, nor am I the kind of person who is overconfident in myself. The first time I knew for sure that I could play in the NBA was when I beat Tyson Chandler at the McDonald's training camp. He was the No. [-] high school player in the country in that class."

Good guy, Brad Miller, who was little-known before coming to the Kings, actually has two top-four picks as a center substitute. Doesn't this tell Miller clearly that the management is going to trade you?

Except that the Bulls put on a show of resistance in the first quarter and took a 26:25 lead into the second quarter, and the remaining three quarters were completely a performance by the Kings.

In the end, the Kings slaughtered the Bulls with 105:71 and 34 points at home.

Lu Yuanzhi played 18 minutes and scored 12 points, 6 rebounds and 4 blocks.

Throughout the game, Ron Moser, who faced Lu Yuanzhi, was like sleepwalking. He made 14 of 6 shots from the field. He made 6 of 1 shots against Lu Yuanzhi and was completely frozen.

The biggest threat to Lu Yuanzhi is the boxing champion, and most of their playing time overlaps.

The boxing champion moves quickly laterally, has a standard center figure, is very capable of protecting the basket, and has excellent physical confrontation ability. This made Lu Yuanzhi, who ended the confrontation with only 51, miserable, and even blocked Lu Yuanzhi's shot.

Still too weak!
I have to practice more when I go back!

But even though it was a little uncomfortable to be defended by the boxing champion, Lu Yuanzhi still beat Ron Moser on both offense and defense. How dare he play a position with me?
The system awarded 2 points of free attributes, and the 4 blocks reached a new high. The system also awarded 1 point of free attributes.

Lu Yuanzhi continued to add points to the end of the confrontation, and the end of the confrontation came to 54 points.

The Kings players did not pay much attention to this game, because in the next game two days later, they will go to Staples to challenge the Lakers away from home.

Now that the goal of hitting the championship this season has been set, the Lakers cannot get around the hurdle.

Even in the regular season, even if Chris Webber is still on the injured list, the Kings players still want to unseat the Lakers in Staples.

The Lakers won two championships in the 99-00 and 00-01 seasons and are heading towards the goal of a triple crown.

The NBA has a strange custom, or NBA fans have a strange custom. Only those who win three consecutive championships will be called a dynasty. This is how the Bulls dynasty came about, and the main reason why the Warriors are not considered a dynasty is that they I won the championship in 15, 17, 18, and 22 years, but it was not three consecutive championships.

The Lakers are also launching an attack on the first championship dynasty in the new millennium. Team boss Shaquille O'Neal is in his prime and is unstoppable in the paint. Mutombo, last year's best defensive player, was eliminated in the finals. O'Neal was beaten into a sieve.

Outside Section 8, although he is still just Peter Pan and has not evolved into the Black Mamba, he is more flexible and has stronger impact.

The Lakers' OK combination scored 57 points in the regular season last season and 60 points in the playoffs. It is the most powerful combination in the league.

Every team that wants to get involved in the O'Brien Cup must think about it, such an OK combination, why should I beat them!
The Spurs with their twin towers fell at their feet, the 76ers with their scoring champion and the best defensive player fell at their feet, the Blazers with their luxurious strikers fell at their feet, and of course the Kings, who had the most offensive power in the league, fell at their feet. He also fell at their feet.

But today, the Lakers are not without a chance to be defeated. There is a slight problem with their salary structure.

O'Neal's 2143 million, Kobe's 1125 million, and veteran Robert Horry's 530 million. The three accounted for 3798 million in salary space, and this year's salary cap is only 4250 million.

The Buss family runs the Lakers to make money and does not want to pay luxury tax.

They are not like Trail Blazers owner Paul Allen, who is waving a lot of green money, doesn't care about the luxury tax, and comes to the NBA to spend money!

Therefore, the Lakers' salary space is already very tight. Without money, there will be no good players.

Although the Lakers have reasonably avoided the luxury tax through various contracts and finally set this year's total salary at 5427 million yuan, 13 people share 1629 million yuan, and the average salary of each person is just over 100 million. What reliable teammates can they have?

It’s not too much to say something about teammate CBA!
Lynch Hunter, the newly added point guard who averaged 1.6 assists per game; Samaki Walker, with the Spurs ring, won three consecutive championships for the first time, but he couldn't even help O'Neal to open up space on the court; There are also Brian Shaw, Devin George, Mark Madson, Jelani McCoy, who are these people!

Seeing these names one after another, which Lakers fan doesn't have his blood pressure rise?
By the way, there is also a weird Rick Fox, who actually went to make small movies after retiring.

The NBA was fighting, but it ended up in the San Fernando Valley, so why not justify it!
But O'Neal, Kobe and Horry get 2/3 of the salary, but can get 2/3 of the team's points. Thinking about it this way, it seems quite reasonable, haha.

In comparison, the salary composition of the Kings is relatively reasonable. Chris Webber and Vlad Divac are both in the early 1000 million range, and other main players and main rotations are also in the range of 300-500 million. The ability is much stronger than the CBA teammates of the Lakers.

To defeat the Lakers, in the absence of Webber, the Kings must use all three armies to open wounds on the weak points of the Lakers, those role players!

 Thank you brothers for your support, please continue to read, collect and recommend, take a bow!
