Basketball: Start with the Neuroknife

Allen Iverson has been struggling lately.

Especially after the third round of the All-Star first-round voting came out.

There have been three 30+ games and two 40+ games.

Such a small person, quite capable.

His mind is on the bright side, he wants to regain the starting position of the All-Star.

Appreciation is for appreciation, but he doesn't feel that he has reached the age where he should make way for the younger generation.

This season, he averaged 26.4 points, 7.1 assists and 2 steals per game. The points and assists are the highest in the Nuggets, and he is still a super-giant performance.

Including this game, he showed all his fighting power from the beginning. After scoring the first goal aggressively, he continued to score with high difficulty. Even if Kwame Brown helped to make up the defense, Li Wan's defense was in front of him. , or as brittle as Maddie's knee.

The whole world knows the reason why Allen Iverson went to the right, but no one could prevent it. Li Wan also found it. All of this guy's singles movements with the ball are forcing the defender's center of gravity to shift to the left. , if you don't follow him, he will continue to deceive. After a while, your body can't help but deviate to the left. At this time, he will use a large change of direction to wipe away from you.

This is the breakthrough art of Allen Iverson.

Li Wanyuan called him "the strongest breakthrough player".

In fact, before the league allowed zone defense, Allen Iverson did once, like Shaq, an existence that no one in the league could limit. My little one!"

By the end of the first half, Allen Iverson had scored 16 points.

But even so, the Lakers are ahead.

Li Wan does not have the breakthrough method of Allen Iverson, but he also has advantages in playing Allen Iverson, and his method... is also a deception!

How the "Answer" steals came about is basically clear to the people in the league.

Especially like the out-of-position interception.

In 2001, Larry Brown matched "African Mountain" Mutombo and "Cap King" Ratliff on the inside, which allowed him to lose his position recklessly.

But the Nuggets don't have that kind of defensive ability.

As long as he can be tricked out of position, it will be easier for Li Wan to make a breakthrough or attract a defended pass.

The Nuggets have averaged 110 points per game this season, the top three in the league, but they are also in the top three with 107 points per game.

You must know that the Heat, currently ranked last in the Eastern Conference, only allowed 108 points per game.

They are famous for scoring and they are famous for losing.

Li Wan scored 10 points in the first half and added 5 assists.

Three went to Kobe.

Not surprisingly, tonight is the rhythm of feeding Kobe Bryant.

Well, on the current account of the main Lakers team, Odom has never had the desire to attack, and will only actively participate in the attack when the interest comes.

This is also related to his lack of concentration due to his breathing too much.

Even so, he still won the "Best Sixth Man", which shows how exaggerated his talent is.

Kwame Brown can finally eat a little "cake" now, but only in the basket. His style of play has long been finalized. Even if he regains his confidence, he will only have more changes in his attitude. This is mainly to improve defense, and it is useless for offense.

Luke Walton is not so much an attacking player as he is a smart ordinary main force. His talent is more shown in support and running positions. It is unrealistic to expect him to catch the ball and shoot several long distances in a row. .

Therefore, only Kobe Bryant can improve his assist conversion rate.

In the first half, Bryant and Carmelo Anthony were also considered "fire and lightning", and they were more aggressive from the beginning. Both of them even had two fouls on their backs, both of which were given to each other.

The encounter between the representative of the league's scoring and the soon to be the representative of the league's scoring is so exciting.

Speaking of which, if Anthony is defending Kobe every night, he might be able to enter the "best defense" at the end of the season.

Against Kobe, he really worked hard!

George Karl never stressed who was going to guard Kobe before the Lakers game.

Everyone knows this. Everyone knows who is going to guard Kobe.

The audience fought fiercely, and the game quickly came to 7 minutes and 15 seconds of the fourth quarter.

The Lakers temporarily led by 4 points, 108-104.

Seeing that he couldn't defend his opponent, George Karl twitched his head and put Jr-Smith on the field again.

"An Shi Rebellion" reached a bond.

Li Wan was the same as when he played against the Nuggets on the road before. He continuously asked for the ball to be out of position with Kobe. Carmelo Anthony saw Kobe as a good thing, but he saw Kobe as a whole, which was a bad thing.

First, Li Wan scored a three-pointer himself, and then assisted Kobe Bryant's jr-Smith, who broke the defense with the ball, to complete the score.

With this wave of scoring spurts, the Lakers defeated the visiting Nuggets 118-111, 7 points.

Allen Iverson scored 40 points and 7 assists. Li Wan finally scored "only" 20 points, exactly half of his.

Although lost the game, but won the data.

What fans love the most is not the star soaring points, let alone Allen Iverson playing so well.

As he continued to soar like this, Li Wan felt that the All-Star starting position he had finally won might not be guaranteed. However, Li Wan did not worry too much about this.

After all, this is one of the league's "popular kings" for many years. It has a profound background. Li Wan remembers when he went to school before crossing the road. One of the posters in the "Basketball Herald" was Allen Iverson wearing the back of the Philadelphia 76ers. , At that time, all the boys in the class bought this issue of "Basketball Herald" as long as they watched the ball, because of this poster of Allen Iverson.

This shows that the group of "Ai fans" is huge.

The Allen Iverson "small group" that was chased by domestic fans in those years was an existence of such magnitude as Kobe and McGrady that could not be touched.

Li Wan thinks, if he really loses to Kobe and Allen Iverson, there is no problem.

After all, the two guards with the most ruthless traffic flow have met him.

Kobe Bryant scored 15 points in a single quarter tonight and scored 38 points, beating Carmelo Anthony's 25 points. Let the "melon" know again that the future is yours, but the present is not the future.

After winning the game and winning the data, the "Black Mamba" was very happy, and Odom dared to ask Li Wan aloud in the locker room "whether to go to the nightclub"!

Li Wan shook his head. After the interview was over, he walked around the gate of the arena first, but did not see Yin Wanka.

gone?

impossible…

I haven't even given me the clothes yet...

Li Wan thought about it, reacted, and went to the VIP channel.

He suddenly reacted, Yin Wanka was sitting next to Nicholson in the courtside position today, and that area was almost all old and old, and the Lakers management also specially prepared VIP parking for these "dignified" fans field.

Yin Wanka is not outside the arena, so it is most likely in the parking lot.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Wan entered the parking lot, a car double-flashed. Running towards the car, the window beside the driver's seat opened, revealing a face with a sweet smile and smart makeup, it was Yin Wanka.

When she was just watching the game, she was still wearing a khaki windbreaker, which she didn't take off for the whole game. Now Yin Wanka, who was sitting in the car, had already taken off her windbreaker.

Li Wan also knew the reason.

It was a black lace vest.

This rich girl really loves to find excitement!

Is it because she has to pretend to be obedient to her father every day and get sick?

Li Wan thought it was very possible.

After all, she backstabbed her father later, and there were related revelations: in order to gain her father's love, she spent a lot of time trying to please her father.

These thoughts were just for a moment, Yin Wanka unlocked the car, and after Li Wan got in the car, the two of them did not say a word and went to work first.

This battle was Li Wan's first battle after half a month. Yin Baka lay like this for a long time, half a sound, as if he had just woken up, and lit a slender lady's cigarette.

The hand holding the cigarette was casually placed outside the car window, and the pink color on the nails was unexpectedly harmonious with this cigarette.

She stretched out her hand to brush the loose ends of her hair, stroked it back a few times, and looked at Li Wan at the same time, her eyes were almost drawn.

Looking back at the suit in the back seat of the car, Yin Wanka reluctantly said, "The clothes are brought back to you. What excuse should I have next time?"

This is for the next appointment.

Li Wan didn't think too much: "If you want, you can put your clothes here, so you have an excuse at any time."

"Ha~" Yin Wanka smiled and nodded in agreement, "Then it's settled."

After smoking a cigarette, Yin Wanka had to go back to the company. The price of going out to watch football all night was that she had to go back and work overtime all night, but the experience tonight made her feel that it was worth it.

Before Li Wan got off the bus, she suddenly asked again, "Li, do you plan to buy a house on the east side of Sunset Boulevard?"

"Um?"

Li Wan tilted his head and glanced at her.

"You can buy one and I think in a year you'll find that's a good investment."

"uh-huh!"

Li Wan is not stupid, he naturally understands what Yin Wanka is saying. When he got back to his car, he immediately called Tyron and asked about the situation over there, and he didn't do it directly.

America is going through a subprime mortgage crisis.

There are too many bubbles in housing prices, and it is impossible for him to spend millions of dollars in vain with just one word from Yin Wanka.

However, after learning that the land tax over there has been stable at a relatively high range, and there have been rumors of investment business circles, Li Wan felt that he could give it a try.

The real estate investment in the United States mainly depends on whether it is next to a business district. If it is not next to a school, other factors have little effect. At the same time, in areas with high property taxes in the United States, the price of houses is generally relatively stable, with small fluctuations.

Even if Yin Wanka's information is wrong, he should be able to recover the principal no matter how much he spends. -It is worth mentioning that, for the $50,000 that Li Wan sent back earlier, his parents also bought a set of two bedrooms and one living room worth one million RMB in Modu.

Li Wan hadn't figured out what specific investment to make, but now that cheap information is wasted if he doesn't use it, he asked Tai Lun to investigate and help him choose a house of about one million yuan.

If a year later, if there is real investment in the business district, the return will still be considerable.

Early the next morning, the Los Angeles media continued to promote "Kobe and his Pippen."

Yesterday, Li Wan's performance was suppressed by Allen Iverson, but he still sent 20 plus 10 data, and his cooperation with Kobe was so harmonious.

At the critical moment, it was also his continuous cooperation with Kobe that won the game.

Li Wan, who is passing the ball, and Kobe, who is a tough player, is there more "Jordan Pippen" than this?

It's just that before the Lakers fans have more imagination, the Lakers suffered a "three-game losing streak"!

First challenged the Spurs away from home, allowing Tim Duncan to score 30 plus 12 in the interior. That night, Duan Meng returned to 03;

Then back to the home game against the Wizards, Jamison played like Dirk Nowitzki, scoring 28 points in a single game, plus the performances of Arenas and Jimmy Butler on the outside, and finally beat the Lakers by 7 points. ;

Kobe Bryant averaged 30 plus points per game in these two games, and Li Wan also averaged 18 plus 10 points in these two games. Both of them played to their level, but in the end they didn't win.

The last game of the "three-game losing streak" was against the Boston Celtics.

If in the first two games, the Lakers were able to play back and forth with their opponents, then this game against the Boston Celtics made it clear to all Los Angeles people that the Lakers with Kobe and Li Wan as their cores How far is the team from the championship?

In this game, Thibodeau, the man behind Rivers, took a different approach. Instead of taking care of Kobe Bryant, he set his sights on Li Wan at No. 1.

Layers of containment cut off Li Wan's connection with Kobe, plus various personal defenses. In this game, Li Wan was a bit "revelation", shooting 37%, only scored 10 points, and other 4 turnovers.

Kobe Bryant scored 35 points alone, but the Lakers still lost to the Celtics by 15 points...

Throughout the game, the Lakers did not gain even a single lead.

After this defeat, there are only 4 days left in January, and only 18 days before the closing of the free trading market!

ESPN wrote the headline that caused a lot of discussion - "The Lakers have reached the juncture of choice, now or in the future! 》

Li Wan scored 52 points in a single game. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that his future prospects are limitless. According to his current growth rate, in one or two years, he will definitely become one of the best players in the league.

It would not be surprising if the Lakers considered him not for sale!

The key is…

Will Kobe do it?

The whole league knows that the 30-year-old Kobe is desperate to win the championship, as the absolute core of the team.

I really wait for Li Wan to grow up after two years. I'm afraid no one can guarantee who will be the absolute core of the Lakers at that time?

Even if Li Wan is still willing to assist Kobe when the time comes, he is in the contract year, the maximum salary, and the positioning of the outside world for him in the future... These two points alone have forced him to compete for the core position of the team.

You know, there has always been a saying in the league that Pippen has not taken off the hat of "second child" throughout his career, because he stayed with Michael Jordan for too long and missed the best stage of his own growth and honing his ability to be on his own. .

The game of play will be fixed...

Li Wan's temperament and character, the entire league has seen, he must not be reconciled to just being the second leader of the team!

"It is true that Bynum will return next season, and the Lakers are still the favorites for the championship, but don't forget, after entering the league in 2005, Bynum has been reimbursed twice in three seasons!"

Bill Walton, as a commentator, rarely expresses his views on the sidelines, but this time he rarely spoke to the media: "Maybe a little alarmist, but these are indeed a difficult choice that the Lakers need to face!"

Kobe Bryant's forced palace last summer is still in sight. If this season ends in the first round or the semifinals, who knows what he will do this summer!

and…

"There is only one chance left for the Lakers!"

Yao Ming has just renewed his contract for two seasons, and Tim Duncan and Nowitzki are unlikely to move.

In addition to these three, Kevin Garnett has just joined the Celtics. Once he wins the championship, it is absolutely impossible to leave the Celtics.

The rest can be considered at their peak and can partner with Kobe...

Only Pau Gasol is left!

If the Spaniard is missed, then there is an impossible choice left on the market - Shaq O'Neal.

This "old diesel" still has oil.

Can…

Everyone knows that it is impossible for Kobe and Shaq to be teammates again before he proves that he can win the championship without Shaq.

And Shaq, who has been injured constantly, and Pau Gasol at their peak...

Anyone who doesn't know the ball knows who is more worth chasing.

Barkley also regrets the current situation of the Lakers: "Winning Li Wan in the draft is the most beautiful thing the Lakers have done besides keeping Kobe Bryant, but unfortunately, in this season, they have I chose Li Wan…”

If it was in 2005 and 2006, when Kobe himself was still honing his skills, he chose Li Wan, then for the Lakers, there would be no problem!

now...

You were born before me, and I am old when I was born.

It's like the "Michael Jordan" who spent 10 years waiting for Pippen.

You said, "Michael Jordan" can not be in a hurry?

You know, Kobe's goal is not just a Shaq, his ultimate goal, without a doubt, is definitely a shooting guard who won the "three-peat MVP" achievement after Michael Jordan.

To the greatest extent, catch up with Jordan!

At 30 years old, every season is really precious...

Just look at 26-year-old LeBron James.

Why leave Cleveland?

The Cavaliers, who have squeezed the salary space into a deformity, can no longer carry his championship dream, and he urgently needs a championship to prove himself!

The 26-year-old LeBron is so anxious, let alone the 30-year-old Kobe!

Kupchak did start again.

After losing to the Celtics, the old Buss called that night and asked him to restart the trade plan.

But there were dark clouds on his withered face.

Before hanging up the phone, he asked old Bass again, "Can Li Wan trade?"

The old Bass, who gave an affirmative answer last time, hung up the phone after being silent this time.

This can be understood as the default...

But if there is a problem with the transaction, and he makes a backhand to deny the account, then he is the general manager who is to blame!

Kupchak looked sad, really wanted to lock the door of the office, and cried happily.

It's so hard to be the general manager of the Lakers!

Originally, Li Wan was chosen in the summer, and he thought he would get a "king" who could "advance to attack and retreat to defend". As a result, it became a "hot potato".

If I had known that I was still fighting with Phil Jackson, if I listened to him and traded it earlier, wouldn't it be Phil who was to blame!

In his seventies, Kupchak finally understood that sometimes, what looked like a win was actually a loss...

There is no airtight wall in the world, not to mention that the media will analyze it without any expectation. After speculation, Li Wan's name has appeared in more and more trade rumors.

No way, ESPN has made the atmosphere to this level, Kobe or Li Wan, fools know who the Lakers choose.

Li Wan didn't seem to be bothered by the trade comments at all, and still lived his own life, doing his best on the court, training and training off the court, and on the news.

On January 30, the league officially announced the All-Star starting roster.

Kevin Garnett is the same as before. Because of Yi Jianlian's threat, he won the support of public opinion and won the only All-Star "vote king" in his career.

The Eastern Conference All-Star lineup was finally released. The starting five are: Jason Kidd, Wade, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, and Howard;

Among them, Howard is the first time in his career to enter the All-Star starting list.

He should be in too!

The league's best third team last season, and this season's data has reached the top insiders to average 20 points and 12 rebounds per game.

On the western side, the final list is: Kobe, Li Wan, Carmelo Anthony, Tim Duncan, Yao Ming.

Li Wan was a little surprised when he saw that he was still ranked in the top two of the Western Conference backline.

Because Allen Iverson's performance in the last week was too hot, averaging more than 35 points per game, Li Wandu secretly voted for him.

Unexpectedly, he was able to keep it!

The league released the final stage of voting in the face of questions from the Denver media.

Judging from the results, 56% of Li Wan's votes came from China, and Allen Iverson also received a lot of dividends from the other side of the ocean, of which 45% came from China.

The difference of 10% is actually not that obvious. It is only about 70,000 votes. After removing the 70,000 votes, Li Wan still beat him by about 30,000 votes in this round.

In the end, Li Wan also won the final victory with an advantage of 170,000 more votes.

Interestingly, judging from the official data released by the NBA, in the last two days of January, Li Wan's votes in the American states increased.

Just in time for rumors about trading him...

California's votes accounted for 12% of the total votes in the fourth phase.

The rest are made up of states in the United States.

Two states stand out in particular.

Is this to express my welcome?

OK…

10 points for each impression of New York State and Ohio!

However, Ohio seems to have only one NBA team, right?

The Cleveland Cavaliers…

Could it be that I am one of the "brother basketball" this time?

He was boringly studying the voting ratios of various states. The domestic fans were very excited as soon as they heard the news. After many days of hard work, they finally paid off. "Li Wanba" is very lively and very lively:

"Li Wanniu!"

"It's not easy, there are 170,000 more votes, but to squeeze out the peak Allen Iverson, this is enough for a lifetime!"

"For the first time in the All-Star Game, there are two Chinese players, which is awesome!"

"I'm already bound to the TV. Wherever I go, it must be mine on New Year's Day!"

"The genius upstairs!"

"It's a pity that Yi Jianlian didn't get in, otherwise there would be three!"

"Don't mention Sister Lian, he gets angry when he says that, the sixth pick in the first round, that's all?"

"Major injuries are really a problem..."

"He's doing well! He scored 2 points and 1 rebound in anger, and the UAE smiled slightly. He has won the coach's trust!"

…

It's not that they don't know the news that Li Wan may be traded, but in their opinion, Li Wan is an All-Star starter...

Wherever you go, you should be treated like the boss, right?

In this case, they have nothing to worry about.

And with Li Wan's ability, they don't need to worry about it...

He is not Yi Jianlian...

With the continuous injury of the United Arab Emirates, he only played for ten minutes many times and scored a pitiful 2 points and 1 rebound. Coupled with the touts of the media, the number of domestic "easy black" has officially reached a certain scale.

At the same time, the NBA suddenly reported a big deal.

Without warning, Pat Larry suddenly reached a deal with Suns general manager Steve Kerr, "Shark" traveled westward to Phoenix, and "Hacker" Marion was used as a chip for the Suns to unlock the "single exchange for O'Neal". "Achievement.

It can be seen from here that O'Neal is now in the league, and he has officially withdrawn from the top ranks. Now, in the eyes of the general managers of each team, he is only a player between the first line and the first line, and because of injuries, his value Still in infinite decline.

"Shark" swam a total of 5 times.

At the beginning, Orlando "toured west" to Los Angeles, then "toured east" from Los Angeles to Miami, and now "toured" to the West Coast, and then he will travel east twice.

However, since this time, the influence has become smaller every time.

But why Phoenix general manager Steve Kerr and later Cavaliers general manager Griffin are willing to gamble on him?

This has to be said, the iron law of the league team building.

The template for all general managers to build teams is the lineup template for those championship teams.

The Bulls "Iron Triangle" won two "two consecutive championships". Many stars at the end of their careers chose to follow in their footsteps and formed the "Big Three". After that, the "OK" combination was born in 2000, and the entire league won the championship. The template has changed again.

It has become the "one inside and one outside" that most teams are still pursuing.

McGrady went to the Rockets in 2004. Why did the outside world expect so much, because in the eyes of most media and experts, it has reached the core conditions of the "championship template".

Then, Shaq O'Neal and Wade won the championship in 2006, proving that a strong enough perimeter player, with an inside "second assistant", can also win the championship.

This is why, after 2007, the Lakers have had scandals with every big man.

Kobe is strong enough!

Kevin Garnett, Pau Gasol, Yao Ming, whoever plays with him, guarantees a championship...

Originally, when Paul Gasol went to the Lakers, Popovich immediately said it was a blatant robbery because he knew that giving Kobe a Gasol would win the championship!

From this, it is understandable why Steve Kerr brought in Shaq. He just wanted to play the "OK" combination.

After all, halfway through the season, the Suns are currently ranked sixth in the West, and their fatigue is already evident. This team's potential has been drained. It is better to fight for it.

Later, it was revealed that Kerr was already targeting Stephen Curry at this time and wanted to grab him as Steve Nash's successor. Unfortunately, he finally let the Warriors cut off the Hu. In desperation, he chose to resign. to quell the wrath of the Phoenix people.

Of course, no one knows exactly what happened.

It is worth mentioning that this trend of creating an "OK" combination has almost stopped in the past two years. LeBron James fought with the Celtics for three years in the East. The "Top Three", so far, the "Big Three" has become the championship mode...

It was only in 2019 that the Menglong team won the championship, and Xiaoka's "single-core" led the team and changed the atmosphere of the league. The Lakers got LeBron James and once again formed the "OK" combination model of "one inside and one outside".

NBA, it is also a circle...

On the first day of February, there was such a big commotion, and the splash was huge...

The Lakers are the first to bear the brunt. Shaq went to Phoenix, which means that they don't even have an imaginary impossible object. Now there is only one Pau Gasol left on the market!

Ready-made "champion template", or not...

Kupchak is also tangled.

In recent days, his relationship with the general manager of the Grizzlies, Chris Wallace, has become closer, but the other party will not let go, and will not take out Li Wan, so there is no need to talk about it.

Kupchak also understands...

If Li Wan didn't get that 52 points, he wouldn't want it if he didn't.

Now Li Wandu has become the second rookie in history to score 50 points in a single game in his rookie season after Allen Iverson. If this is not required to be placed on the negotiating table, I am afraid that the position of general manager will be required the next day. Got ripped off.

Switching Kupchak to the opposite position, his current attitude is probably more determined than Chris Wallace.

But if you must join Li Wan...

Kupchak felt that he was at a loss...

Yes, even if Li Wandan replaced Pau Gasol, he felt at a loss!

No way, Pau Gasol's upper limit is already there, an All-Star player, the best second-in-command...

But what about Li Wan?

With what he did in New York, no one knew where his limits were!

But this is from his perspective...

It's impossible to give a top Pau Gasol to the other side, and give him two first-round picks... right?

Although Kupchak thought it was impossible, he still called and asked. After Chris Wallace heard it, he fell silent, his hands trembled slightly, and he gritted his teeth and forced himself to put down the microphone gently.

Then he scolded: "fxxk, **** you!"

An angry tone, an angry expression!

It was also the first time he had heard that when the peak All-Star changed to a rookie, he had to get a first-round pick. No, Kupchak actually mentioned two!

Wow, the big cities are different from what they have seen in the world!

Are they all traded like this?

Chris Wallace instantly felt that his pattern was not open.

At the same time when the negotiations were deadlocked, Li Wan won the second "Rookie of the Month" trophy in his career.

The photo in the middle changed a pose, still so handsome.

In the just-concluded January, even though there were cruel "7 consecutive visitors" and non-stop gossip, but because of Bynum's season reimbursement, he got more ball rights and shot opportunities. The average per game in January. The score has increased again, breaking through 20 points for the first time, and averaging 21.4 points per game. In addition, thanks to his partner Kobe, the number of assists is also full, averaging 8.6 assists per game, which is already a first-class assist in the league.

Plus 4.8 rebounds and 1 steal per game.

This allowed him to successfully defeat Kevin Durant, who also hit a new monthly high in points per game, and regained the "Rookie of the Month" in the Western Conference.

Kevin Durant averaged 23.5 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game. Except for scoring, he was not as good as Li Wan, and his advantage in scoring per game was not obvious.

Losing to Li Wan is not surprising.

Durant knows this too.

Li Wan scored 52 points in a single game. He also tried to prove himself, but the problem is that when January comes, he is really tired. In addition, other teams in the league have touched his offensive habits, causing him to No matter how much he brushed in the rest of the month, he never scored more than 25 points in a single game.

This month is abolished, next month, Kevin Durant vowed to work hard to win back his "Rookie of the Month Trophy"!

He still has a lot of handsome poses that are useless!

Li Wan was also not very satisfied with his performance last month. He stretched his hips in the second half, so that his average shooting percentage in January was almost 39%.

The three-point shooting percentage was even lower at 35.3 percent…

With Kevin Durant, it really became a "momentary bright"!

Fortunately, few rookies shot well in January, including Al Horford, who won three consecutive Eastern Conference "Rookie of the Year Awards".

As an insider, this is clearly substandard.

The "Best Player of the Month Award" in the West, as Li Wan knows, belongs to Dayao. He averaged 25.4 points and 12.3 rebounds this month, leading the team to 12 wins and 3 losses.

It is worth mentioning that the game against the Warriors at the end of January was the same as before. Dayao led the team to win with the data of 30 plus 15.

At this time, no one knows that a winning streak that will be recorded in NBA history is about to start!

Tai Lun met with Li Wan.

Li Wan asked him to buy a house. After careful comparison, he discussed with several experts in the industry. After synthesizing the opinions of these people, he chose a house with a good location and bought it, but the money was a little bit. Exceeding the budget, it cost about 1.3 million. After buying this house, Li Wan has less than 1 million left in his hand.

Fortunately, at the end of the month, Nike had already transferred 50% of the first-year sneaker endorsement fee, which is $6.25 million, to Li Wan's card. Otherwise, Li Wan would have to tighten his belt again.

In addition, he also brought a piece of news. David Stern called and wanted to ask if Li Wan was willing to participate in the three major challenges.

Li Wan was not surprised.

After 52 points, he can be said to be the most popular person in the league, especially in the recent trade messages. David Stern is impossible to ignore the huge topic he carries.

That is why Yao Ming's height is not suitable for any of the three major challenges. Otherwise, Yao Ming would have to choose one of three.

Only Li Wan refused.

He has to play the Rookie Challenge and the All-Star Game, with the "Three Challenges" in between. Does he have to rest this All-Star weekend?

Well, the key is these three, he has no confidence to win the championship, let's wait for next year's "magic power" to go further...

And, only if he rejected David - Stern, the latter will realize his vision in another event!

"I certainly hope the four of us in Ohio can play the Rookie Challenge together, that's a cool thing!"

The East and West All-Star substitute lineup has been selected in the past two days. It is estimated that the competition team is now arranging the roster for the Rookie Challenge. As soon as Li Wan was interviewed that day, he officially opened the "Cook" according to the agreement on the night of "Christmas Eve". Battle for a place."

Like him, Auden, Conley and Cook will face reporters' questions with the same attitude.

With his current huge popularity and the influence of rejecting David Stern's three major challenges, it should be a sure thing for the four of them to enter the Rookie Challenge together.

Because only in this way, the gimmick of this Rookie Challenge can come to the biggest.

In order to make up for the traffic lost by Li Wan not participating in the second day of the All-Star game.

Everything was as Li Wan expected. On February 3, just after the Lakers' game with the Timberwolves, he got the news from reporters: He, Oden, Cook, and Conley were all selected for this rookie challenge. Time.

The remaining five places are: Yi Jianlian, Kevin Durant and Noah, Horford and Brewer of the University of Florida.

All the players from the two teams in the NCAA Finals last year who entered the NBA will cooperate on the stage of the Rookie Challenge. In particular, the contradiction between Li Wan and Noah is well known. Not to mention the fans, even Li Wan himself , feel a burst of inexplicable anticipation!

Just the next game is the Lakers away against the Heat.

When he came to the enthusiastic Miami, Cook, who had just learned that he could play in the Rookie Challenge, warmly entertained Li Wan and called the hottest girl.

However, Li Wan only touched the females in this kind of nightclub. He has always shunned women of similar occupations.

And as his fame grew, he even went to nightclubs less often.

In order to prevent an illegitimate child from coming out of nowhere, Li Wan's current targets are all those celebrities, models, and celebrities. In the entertainment industry, the moral bottom line is relatively low, it is not serious, it will not cause unnecessary trouble, and there are no such messy thoughts.

It can be seen that Cook is really happy, drinking one cup after another, his mouth never closed. - I don't know if black people's teeth will appear whiter,

On January 5, the Lakers' away game against Miami officially arrived.

By sending Shaq O'Neal away, the Heat's "rotten" plan went even further. Except for Wade, the rest of the team is mainly based on brushing. Li Wan has seen this state in the New York Knicks before. No wonder Cook averaged 8 plus 3 per game and still felt that he had no hope. With this data, the team really cannot attract the attention of the league.

108 to 98, the Lakers easily took the victory away from Miami.

Li Wan seemed to be able to see that Pat Laili had an old fox-like smile in the general manager's office, and said in his heart: "It's stable, it's stable now!"

On January 7th, the next stop of the Lakers, the away game against the Cavaliers.

As soon as he walked out of the away player tunnel, Li Wan received a warm "welcome" from the fans in the audience, all of them looked excited and resentful, as if Li Wan had done something to them.

It seems that so many votes in Ohio have nothing to do with Cleveland.

In this game, the Cavaliers fans finally left the arena with a smile.

Yes, as they wished, the Cavaliers guarded the home court and killed the Lakers who came to challenge on the road.

Kobe Bryant 30 points, Li Wan 21 points and 8 assists, playing as usual as usual.

But the Lakers still lost the game by 9 points.

LeBron James played very eye-catching, with 29 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists, just 2 assists away, and scored a "triple-double", shooting as high as 50%!

It's one of the reasons why the Cavaliers can win.

Another reason why the Cavaliers can win...

It's the big Z in the inside line. He played the same game as Yao Ming in this game, with 23 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks, and he was a fortune in the Lakers' inside line.

The Lakers lost on the inside again.

After Bynum's season is reimbursed, as long as the opponent's inside line is above the league average, whether it is offensive or defensive, the Lakers' inside line will inevitably be exploded.

It is also true that Odom's 4 position with an outside play and a Kwame Brown, such an inside combination really can't make people look forward to much.

After this loss, the rumors about the Lakers' trade have reached a peak.

After all, there are only 7 days left before the start of the All-Star Weekend. In these 7 days, the Lakers must have a break.

Judging from their current situation, if there is no big deal, I'm afraid they have to fall in the first round of the playoffs, or the second round...

Now the problem inside this team is too big!

"OK, I see, that's a pity..."

"Clap!"

Kupchak hung up the phone, knowing that the Lakers lost to the Cavaliers on the road.

In the past two days, he has changed his mind...

If you really build a team with Kobe and Li Wan as the absolute core, what is missing from this team?

Michael Jordan's "We're one rebound away from a championship" came to his mind.

Yes!

Wouldn't it be enough to add an inside gate like Rodman?

But he really didn't expect...

The general managers of other teams in the league are linked with collusion, and it is the same as saying that, as long as any trading partner with some ability, the opening is "must put Li Wan on the negotiating table!"

One by one with a resolute attitude...

Because they all know that the change of the Lakers is imminent, if there is no change now, then there will be more shocks this summer.

At this time, how could the general managers of other teams let go of this Kupchak opportunity?

What's more, since your Lakers came to Los Angeles, how many years have you robbed the core of the family? Now that these teams have the opportunity to take revenge, will they not slaughter them severely?

His predicament seems to be normal!

"call!"

The office was quiet, and Kupchak could clearly hear the sound of the clock on the wall, "Katcha, Kacha", as well as the shaking of his brain nerves, one after another.

Now that everything is obvious, to change, the entire league is waiting for the Lakers to hand over Li Wan.

In this situation…

Kupchak had to formally consider trading Li Wan.

If Li Wan is used as a bargaining chip, then it is natural to choose the best object, which is undoubtedly Paul Gasol of the Memphis Grizzlies.

Although the Bulls took out Luer Deng and Ben Gordon, and the Pistons took out Rasheed Wallace, as long as the Lakers take out Li Wan, the other two can only rest.

And they're paying such a high price for Pau Gasol to be the best fit for Kobe, especially the Bulls, it's hard not to think of their follow-up...

but!

In any case, taking out Li Wan and replacing only one Pau Gasol would be a loss!

Kupchak told Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace his thoughts: "I need more chips, this is a super rookie who can score 52 points in a rookie season!"

When he said this, the 70-year-old general manager of the Lakers felt like his heart was bleeding.

Unexpectedly, Chris Wallace was calm this time. He also knew the reactions of the general managers of other teams, and he returned to the leading position, which made him very relaxed.

When people work in a relaxed state, their efficiency will become higher.

"I can let you have more harvests, man, let's video connect, and I will introduce you to a collaborator who can make us all satisfied with the final result!"

I shouldn't be satisfied with anything.

Kupchak murmured silently.

Let him take out Li Wan, no matter who it is in exchange, he will not feel that it is profitable.

Get your computer ready and click on Chris Wallace's video request.

On the three-way call, Kupchak saw himself and Chris Wallace. In another screen, the man straightened the camera and slowly moved his hand away.

Kupchak narrowed his eyes.

He saw it.

Magic general manager Otis Smith.

When did this guy hook up with Chris.

When Kupchak saw it was him, his face was full of surprise. This was someone he didn't expect at all.

Chris Wallace also officially stated his trade plan at this time: "I will take out Paul Gasol and give you a second-round pick, and the Magic will give you the starting point guard in their current lineup. Jameel Nelson, plus jj Redick and Ariza…”

"Then Li Wan..."

"It will be traded to the Magic!" Smith, the general manager of the Magic, said.

You don't want Li Wan?

Kupchak almost blurted out at Chris Wallace.

Why doesn't Chris Wallace want this man he now regards as a treasure?

But considering that Li Wan didn't score 52 points in a single game at the beginning, this guy didn't even mention Li Wan's name, so it's not surprising that Kupchak.

This grandson is now completely fascinated by the genius oj-Mayo, who is known as "the combination of Michael Jordan and Kobe"!

If Kupchak spoke out about his belly at the moment, Chris Wallace would definitely be excited: "You're right!"

All he really thinks about right now is oj-Mayo.

Although Li Wan is good, but he observed that this guy's singles ability is not outstanding, the score is mainly based on the breakthrough after Kobe Bryant's containment, or mainly catch and shoot.

The Grizzlies don't have Kobe, and he will definitely not be able to perform as well as he did in the Lakers.

oj-Mayo is different, look at his skills and his physical fitness, he will be the future superstar of the league at No. 2!

And selling Li Wan, he can get two first-round picks and one second-round pick from the Magic, and the Lakers also need to give him a first-round pick and an expiring contract player in order to balance the transaction, which is equivalent to saying that he A Pau Gasol, earned three first-round picks! It can also clear up the space of millions of salary.

Doing business to do his job, he just wanted to ask, who else!

Kupchak did not agree immediately.

Even if this remuneration is really ideal, it can meet all the Lakers' current problems, the inside line, flank defense, and even the offensive ability of the No. 1 position after Li Wan leaves.

Nelson is averaging 10.9 points and 5.6 assists per game this season. He has scored more than 16 points in the last three games, and his performance is getting better and better.

With Kobe's hold on him, his numbers can definitely get better.

but…

This matter is too serious, this is Li Wan who scored 52 points in a single game!

Old Bass didn't speak, he really couldn't make up his mind.

At the same time, Li Wan also learned about this from Tyron. When he heard that he would be traded to the Magic team, his eyes lit up.

Originally he didn't care about the trade rumors, because he knew the final result, if he left, it should be the Grizzlies.

Memphis…

It doesn't suit him anyway.

And going there, fighting for the No. 1 spot with Mike Conley. ——He is playing the best position at the No. 1 position now, and the trend in the league in the future is to take the ball at the No. 1 position, and he does not need to change positions in a hurry.

Who the **** knows when it's going to be a mess...

Can't get involved in management deals so soon?

Not to mention whether Chris Wallace listens to him, even if he does, who is in a small place like Memphis?

Orlando is different. Although it is also a small city, it has already developed!

The next few years were a period of strength for the Magic.

the most important…

If he remembers correctly, Jamison will have a big break next season, averaging 16 plus 7 per game and entering the Eastern Conference bench at All-Star weekend.

This shows that the No. 1 position in the Magic's offensive role will not be less.

Another point, who is the Magic's starting point guard for next season?

Nelson and Alston, one can punch, the other can pass the ball and shoot, add these two together, who is it?

Isn't that his Li Wan?

Therefore, his status to the Magic will not be affected.

Data and status are guaranteed.

Looking at the Lakers again, if the Lakers do not make changes for him this year, and if they fail to achieve results later, who will be the first to be held accountable?

It must be him!

How deep the love is now, how deep the hatred will be at that time...

If the Lakers make a change and he doesn't go, Pau Gasol is here and that's the best outcome for the Lakers.

For him, not quite.

The arrival of Pau Gasol will inevitably occupy a role on the offensive end. He remembers that "Old Fish" Fisher averaged less than 10 points per game, which started after Pau Gasol came.

Even if his tactical status is definitely higher than Fisher, it is impossible to be higher than Gasol.

The "triangle tactics" play style is there, and there is no example of supporting the No. 1 position.

And after Bynum returns, he will definitely have a certain shot right. He wants to stay here, and the ball right next year may not be enough.

Nelson Jr. relied on the Magic team's play next year, and entered the All-Star team for the first time in his career. The tactical status here has all declined...

How to choose, does Li Wan still need to consider it?

in addition…

The brain circuit of this little thing Chris Wallace is really incomprehensible!

As expected of the general manager who gave away Pau Gasol for nothing.

Don't say anything, it's not a loss to get Pau Gasol.

This was purely an afterthought. The Lakers took the initiative to send him a second-round pick because there was really no player who could balance the salary. Chris Wallace had two choices at the time: Sun Yue or Pau Gasol, his choice The Lakers chose to keep Sun Yue, and Gasol went to Memphis.

Chris Wallace didn't take "Big Pyrenees" seriously all the way...

Of course, Li Wan just didn't know that before he scored 52 points in a single game, when Chris Wallace was negotiating, UU read www.uukanshu.com. com didn't even mention his name, otherwise he would definitely refresh his understanding of Chris!

"But Kupchak didn't agree immediately..."

There was no doubt in Tai Lun's words, and Li Wan knew what he meant.

Afraid of taking the blame, afraid of being difficult to do...

The general manager of the Lakers is really tough!

Li Wan said, "Then let us be the bad guys. We've been swaying in the rumors of trade for half a month. It's time to end it!"

To be precise, the rumors of trading him have not stopped since the beginning of the season, and have recently reached a peak.

So expressing your dissatisfaction and wanting to leave is not an exaggeration, right?

Tai Lun expressed his understanding and immediately called Kupchak. As soon as the call was connected, he heard Tai Lun's voice on the phone: "Li Wan, apply for a deal!"
