Basketball: Start with the Neuroknife: Chapter 60 Open the door to a new world

Phil Jackson didn't guess wrong, Thomas was really under a lot of pressure at the moment, perhaps, much bigger than Phil Jackson thought.

Chandler has averaged 8.6 points per game so far, and his performance is worthy of his 17th pick in the first round, but the problem is... it's too far from Li Wan!

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

In addition to the external calls for him to be dismissed, there is also a force within the management who has long been unhappy with him. They are preparing evidence that he has used power for personal gain and engaged in "peach-colored" games over the years, and is preparing to "send him away" in a wave.

Thomas panicked, but he had a last resort. He picked up the phone at the table. He dialed a number he wanted to dial for a long time. He rang three times, and the call was finally connected.

"Man, is something wrong?"

"Mitch, I heard that you also put the Chinese newcomers on the shelf. In this way, I am willing to issue two first-round picks, plus any player from the team, in exchange for the Chinese newcomers!"

The person who answered the phone was Kupchak, the general manager of the Lakers. He was a little surprised by Thomas’ attitude of breaking the boat, but it would be nonsense to say that this bargaining chip is not exciting. The New York Knicks are now ranked second to last in the Eastern Conference. , Next year is recognized by the media as the "draft year", the New York Knicks, which is almost certainly a high pick, can definitely choose a very talented player, plus a first-round pick and anyone in the Knicks team , This is not to mention Li Wan, even if it is an All-Star player, I am afraid that this is the bargaining chip, right?

It's only half a month since the regular season started, and Li Wan's worth has skyrocketed to such an extent?

"I'll think about it!"

Kupchak hung up the phone without hesitation.

"I'll think about it again" is actually not thinking about it.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Wan's future worth is much more valuable than what Thomas offers. Basically, if he is not an All-Star player in his prime, he will definitely not be replaced.

This time, Thomas was completely desperate. He covered his face with his hands and stood still for a long time. Suddenly, he raised his hand and gave him a slap in the face. His dark skin was almost flushed red.

What did you say you were cowardly, Thomas!

The slap was loud and clear, but if the size of the slap represented his regret at the moment, then the slap was still too low...

After reading his physical test report, Li Wan, who felt that he was okay again, had Kobe beat him again in the team's training game, more ruthless than ever before!

At the end of the game, Li Wan was paralyzed on the floor panting, and Kobe coldly left a sentence: "The model show is indeed much better than the arena at 4 in the morning, but that's the price."

$%&%…&*%*

Li Wan stared at Kobe Bryant's back, and his heart was full of national quintessence.

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

However, if he can keep up with his rhythm now, this is considered progress, right?

In fact, Li Wan really wanted to train with Kobe to hone his one-on-one defense, which he lacked.

But the problem is that the time this snake has chosen is too underworld. He is still competitive, and people are still paranoid. To train with him is to torture himself.

just forget it…

Orcs, never slaves!

On November 16, the Lakers sat at home and ushered in the challenge of the Eagles.

In the past few seasons, the Hawks' front office has done a good job. They first harvested two potential stocks in the 2004 draft: Josh Childress, the sixth pick in the first round, and the seventeenth pick in the first round. Josh Smith; in the summer of 2005, the team acquired Joe Johnson from the Suns in a sign-and-for-swap approach, and at the same time selected Marvin Williams with the second overall pick.

So far, the rebuilt core lineup of the Eagles has begun to take shape, and after Al Horford was selected with the third overall pick in the first round of this year's draft, the team has gradually emerged.

They are currently ranked ninth in the Eastern Conference, and if they go further, they will return to the playoffs after 9 seasons.

nine years...

Do you know how Atlanta fans have been here for nine years?

Now they only hope that this talented Eagles team can last longer in its heyday, and even if it can't win the championship, it won't fall so quickly.

Phil Jackson didn't have too many arrangements for this game. The Eagles climbed to the ninth position in the Eastern Conference. Compared with themselves, they have made great progress, but compared with the Lakers, they have a huge gap.

Not a level contest at all.

Phil Jackson felt that even with hard power, he could directly crush his opponent.

However, the Eagles don't want him to feel it, they want to feel it themselves.

The entire team was in very good condition tonight. The Lakers had a seven or eight-point lead until 5 minutes and 14 seconds of the third quarter. Before the situation stabilized, a "nerve knife" jumped out of the Eagles. That is the Josh Childress with the "exploding head". Using his "crooked machine gun"-style weird shooting posture, "Swish Swish" scored 3 consecutive 3 points, and the difference was only 2 points left.

To say that this guy is really good enough.

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

And compared to the other Josh, he is obsessed with projection, but his shooting skills are poor. Once this Josh has a touch, it is very scary. "Shuhuhuhu" consecutive three-pointers like tonight are just routine operations.

In terms of scoring talent alone, he is above Josh Smith.

It's a pity that the defense is sloppy, and the small forward position is basically nothing he can defend.

Originally at the end of the season, the Eagles immediately offered a five-year, 33 million contract extension. After giving Josh Smith, who was in the same position as him, an annual salary of 10 million yuan, the Eagles management also offered him an offer. Such a contract shows how much the team recognizes him.

It's just that the temptation came at this time. Greece's Olympiacos offered a contract worth more than twice the value of the Eagles to grab people. At the same time, he also promised a detached villa, a full-time driver, a personal chef and even a maid, and as long as Childe Reese wants to go back to the NBA and can leave at any time without a buyout fee.

Seriously, the Europa League uses these things to test NBA players, even those stars, I am afraid they will have to stare, let alone Childress, who just got rid of the "child labor contract" and joined his teammates in the same year. Another person who got a million-dollar contract.

He decided to challenge his weakness.

The result is that Childress spent two years in Europe, was owed millions in wages, and became a negative example of the NBA's gold rush to Europe.

However, it is enough to prove that this person has a bit of ability to make people in the European League work so hard to poach people.

Once he gets the feel, the "draught" physique that can explode is one of his abilities.

Facing this situation, Phil Jackson did not panic at all, and wanted to laugh a little. Compared with the "nerve knife", I'm sorry, I have never been afraid this season!

"Li, it's time for your performance!"

His voice was so loud that Mike Woodson, the head coach of the Eagles next to him, heard it. Li Wan has been enjoying a lot of popularity recently. Woodson, who was a little worried, took the assistant's record from the side and looked like he had seen a ghost.

2 for 7 in the first half!

This state, no matter how optimistic, can't be said, okay?

This old man is probably smoking a cigar...

Woodson shook his head speechlessly.

Even if it is a "nerve knife" like Childress, if it is only this kind of hit rate in the first half, basically, in the second half, he will not give much more ball rights.

Phil Jackson actually said it's his acting time...

After the game is over, he must remind Phil Jackson to see the brain department. This is somewhat of a symptom of Alzheimer's.

What surprised him even more was that when Li Wan appeared on the stage, the Los Angeles fans in the audience actually burst into cheers. Closing your eyes and listening to the cheers, you never imagined that this would be a treat that a rookie could enjoy.

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

It seems that it is not just Phil Jackson who has a nerve, but the whole Los Angeles people.

"Bang!"

On the first attack, Li Wan didn't seem to get rid of the slump in the first half. With a crisp shot, he "refined" his sixth "fine iron" in this game.

Check it out!

Woodson had an unexpected expression on his face.

This Los Angeles native and Phil Jackson should really check their brains!

But the Lakers' trust in Li Wan once again exceeded his imagination. After this missed shot, they continued to play **** for Li Wan.

Li Wan's mentality is also really good, the state is depressed like this, and the shot is so decisive.

This time his teammates gave a good cover. Li Wan shot very calmly. The ball crossed an arc and fell straight into the basket.

in!

On the spot, it exploded!

The Staples Arena was full of people.

The Los Angeles natives shouted out the cheers that had been in their throats before, making the entire arena seem to be shaking slightly.

Watch out for transposition!

Woodson kept spinning his hands, allowing the Eagles players on the field to switch defenses a little faster.

Li Wan, who was running without the ball, noticed this keenly~www.mtlnovel.com~ He caught the ball at the top of the arc and stopped suddenly. Childress, who was afraid of his shot, quickly defended himself.

There is hardly any distance, the two are just so close, don't say let's go, even taking off is very difficult.

But this is what Li Wan wants. The quick start brought by the excellent explosive power, wiped past Childress, Li Wan went straight to the inside line, facing Al Horford's upward move, the speed of the rush slowed down, Make a move to shoot. Horford wanted to step forward but was afraid that he would suddenly accelerate again and break through his block.

In this psychological game, the final winner belongs to Li Wan, who made use of the time difference to score a layup.

Two more points!

The sudden breakthrough with the ball made Woodson frown slightly. While Joe Johnson succeeded in a mid-range post-up single against Kobe, he also made up his mind not to change his defensive strategy, but to intercept his catch and shoot.

Li Wan is not polite at all, and once again used his explosive power to break through to defend his Eagles, pass the ball to Odom at the basket, and assist him to take the ball into the frame.

A wave of 7-2 "scoring tide"!

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

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

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

He thought of Phil Jackson's confident words at that time, as if he was more certain than Li Wan himself, this guy can definitely show his performance.

Is this... 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!
