Basketball: starting from the nerve knife
Chapter 025
Chapter 25: Is it so hard to admit Li Wanqiang?
They then went on to take on the Detroit Pistons, the traditional powerhouse of the East.
The two rookies who performed best in preseason, Lee Wan and Starkey, will meet in this game.
There are basically two types of players who can become the core of the team: super geniuses and players who work extremely hard.
Starkey belongs to the third kind. Although he was not a high pick, the Pistons really valued him and regarded him as Billups’ successor, and later the team rebuilt, and cultivated him as the absolute core of the team.
Unfortunately, there is really no too good talent, and the top three of the future “team core that the team can’t support no matter how it can” must have his name.
However, this is all a later matter, only to say that now, his prospects are bright!
In the two preseason games, he also handed over a good answer, 15 points in the first game and 16 points in the second game.
This performance also gave him full confidence, and when the media asked him and Li Wan, who is the best rookie at the moment, he did not hesitate: “Of course it’s me!” ”
When Li Wan saw this report, he shook his head repeatedly.
This kid is also really simple, the reporter digs a hole for him and he jumps!
If his brain is really so unenlightened, I am afraid that after the rookie season, the entire league will be his enemy.
And when the game officially began, he was surprised to find that Starkey was not only simple, he was also stunned. Li Wan came up for the first round, just got the ball, he immediately blocked in front of him with full energy, just cut a leek-like head seems to have a layer of wax, the synthetic jasmine fragrance straight to Li Wan’s nose.
It can be seen that he has carefully dressed up for tonight.
It’s just that……
Li Wanyi changed his usual style of calling, changed direction twice in a row, and then took a step towards the right front, and the explosive power of the league’s upper level made him throw off Starkey at once.
There was a fatal weakness in the scouting reports about Starkey: poor defense and lack of speed.
Generally, players who lack speed are slow to move sideways.
This has nothing to do with physical explosiveness, as strong as Derek Ross, and there is also the problem of slow traverse. But that didn’t stop him from becoming the youngest regular-season MVP in NBA history.
Just on the defensive end, this problem is somewhat fatal.
Li Wanchun crushed him with his dynamic talent.
Don’t say, it feels really cool!
Putting the basket into the basket, Li Wan said to him when he returned to defense: “You are too slow man, spray less gel water, and study your traverse more!” ”
After this remark provoked Starkey to take the ball in the backcourt, he didn’t look anywhere, and went straight to Li Wan, who easily blocked his attack with the help of Vujasić, and waited for Odom to protect the rebound, and another quick counterattack, scoring above Starkey’s head.
Scoring again, Li Wan raped directly: “Hey, man, if it’s better than basketball, it’s really several times stronger than you!” ”
This is a response to his provocation in the face of the media.
Although Starkey is also a digging hole, Li Wan has always had a vendetta against his opponent who provoked him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been on the same page with Noah after the draft.
Everyone is a first-time person, why should I let you?
The ESPN reporter on the sidelines listened to it, and quickly wrote down Li Wan’s trash in his notebook.
Starkey, on the other hand, was stimulated by Li Wan, and his face became more and more smelly.
Li Wan is not worried about him, this guy looks like he played well in the first two games of the preseason, but it really has to be said that in the entire rookie season, his comprehensive performance in the 07th class is not ranking.
Averaged 7.6 points, 2.8 assists and 2.3 rebounds per game.
Among the newcomers of the 07th class, there are opponents that make Li Wan fearful, but it is certainly not him.
It’s just that Li Wan abused Starki very well on the offensive end, and the defensive end was educating again.
In Hamilton’s infinite running, his already weak physical fitness became a problem.
After the game, Li Wan felt that his clothes could wring out a basin of water.
Bryant looked at him and wanted to tell him that Hamilton was like this, this man was tired of running dogs, and after the Finals in ’04, he wanted to break Hamilton’s leg.
The Lakers lost the game.
Phil Jackson was not dissatisfied.
Li Wan’s performance of 16 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists was better than the opposite Starkey’s 9 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
That’s a lot more important than winning.
2 wins and 1 loss, back in Los Angeles. The moment he got off the plane, the only thought in Li Wan’s mind was to go home immediately and go back to bed to lie flat.
Consecutive away games, the rush on the road is indeed a great drain on a player’s spirit.
Phil Jackson and his teaching assistant team held meetings overnight. There are 3 games left in the preseason, and the next step is to grind the tactics and tacit understanding of the team’s offensive and defensive ends.
So, it’s time to decide on the starting lineup and rotation.
There is not a lot of content for adjustments, the only thing that needs to be determined … It was the biggest surprise in the preseason – Li Wan.
His immediate combat power is definitely enough for the regular season substitute rotation level.
His excellent individual ball handling ability and communication skills on the court can be a good glue to the Lakers’ bench.
To put it simply, Li Wan is a barrel of gold oil, well, the ball merchant is very good gold oil.
He’s also very mature.
The only problem is his physical fitness, but for the first 20 minutes or so, there should be no physical burden.
After further adapting to the intensity of the league, it will not be a big problem to play 25 minutes.
Phil Handy said it all, Phil Jackson didn’t ask anyone else’s opinion, bluntly: “If nothing else, he will be the first backup in the regular season No. 2 position, the first person to bear the firepower output during the rotation phase.” ”
Vujasić is a qualified No. 2 replacement, but he has it, Li Wan has it. Li Wan has a lot more that he doesn’t have. It’s like a sense of expectation.
The other assistants have no opinion, Li Wan has shown his potential as a “super sixth man” in three games, and if he wants to make the most of his role, this position is the most suitable for him.
Just as they were about to talk, the door of the office suddenly opened, and Kupchak entered the door with a piece of material, smiling, two deep-set eyes, deep and bright, glowing a little cunning.
“Guys, hard work, 3 a.m., if George has such positivity, I don’t think he has to worry about whether his position under his ass will be kept next year.” ”
Phil Jackson watched him speak and unconsciously clenched his fists. I really want to punch this man in the face. He always felt that Kupchak had not sneaked here without work.
There are.
“Phil, this is a quote about Lee, he’s been doing well lately, which makes him very sought-after now, you see, is there anything you want to want.” ”
“You shouldn’t have forgotten, have you? You let us trade things about Huaxia newcomers. ”
With Kupchek putting the information in front of him, Phil Jackson understood why he wanted to smoke this guy.
Wow, come here…
Isn’t this equivalent to forcing him to admit that he was wrong before?
Quietly opening the bag, as Kupchak said, the other teams have made really good offers, and some of the strong teams are actually planning to send next year’s first-round pick to get him.
It’s just that……
Think beautiful!
In Phil Jackson’s mind, the current Li Wan is part of the team, so high-IQ players are not casual.
But he also didn’t want to bow to Kupchek. His ambition is to enter the Lakers management, this time there is a big disagreement with Kupchek, if he finally admits defeat, doesn’t that prove that his selection ability is not as strong as Kupchek? So how did he get into management?
According to the current momentum, he is sure that this matter will be reduced to a small matter and a small matter.
So……
“It’s very good, but there are still some gaps from what I want…”
“The Cavaliers are willing to trade LeBron James for anyone other than Big Z. ”
“Huh, is there anyone else on their team? ”
“What about the Nets willing to come up with Mickey Moore, or even Nenard Kostić, who averaged 16 points per game last season? ”
“Huh, a person who can’t even score 10 points in the first line plus a patient with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee? ”
“The Pacers are willing to send Jermaine O’Neal or their first-round pick next year. ”
“What about another badly injured insider? Is it that I don’t worry enough about things? Add one more thing that worries about his knees? I’m not a masochist.”
……
Kupchek still wanted to say something, Phil Jackson preemptively said: “Okay, General Manager Mitch, I have just carefully looked at the offers of other teams, and I don’t think it has met my psychological expectations.” ”
The mouth is really hard!
Kupchek once cut through the thick glass with the Lakers championship ring of the 02~03 season, but he felt that the diamond ring was not as hard as Phil Jackson’s mouth.
Is it so hard to admit Li Wanqiang?
