I am so Accurate
Chapter 661 Yao Ming’s situation
Sun Hao was a little confused when he saw the news. He was already ready to compete.
However, the league will impose this penalty, and Stern is obviously under a lot of pressure from the league committee.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to make a game on his own and then remove the pillars first.
And as far as the punishment itself is concerned, there is nothing wrong with it. Bass's recruitment of Sun Hao is indeed illegal.
So, accept the punishment!
And obviously because it was Sun Hao, the league only gave him a 5-game suspension.
If it were anyone else, the minimum guarantee for this kind of thing would be 10+ times.
Sun Hao's first show back with the Lakers was postponed.
But for the opening game, he still arrived in a suit.
The suspension only prohibits him from playing, but does not prohibit him from attending the game.
There is no way to compete, the championship ring is still necessary.
In fact, when Sun Hao appeared at the entrance of the players' tunnel, the live footage was immediately shown to him.
Then, there was overwhelming cheers.
Compared with when Sun Hao first returned to Los Angeles, Warriors fans had a completely different attitude towards Sun Hao.
They really appreciate what Sun Hao has done for the Warriors.
Sun Hao felt the enthusiasm of the fans and reached out to respond.
In his heart, he was somewhat reluctant to part with these lovely fans.
Of course, after making the decision to "challenge", he also had to make these choices.
As soon as he finished greeting the fans, Durant, Curry, and Oden from the Warriors came over to greet him.
The expressions of the younger brothers when they see their elder brother should not be too real.
Durant even had an expression that said, "I miss you so much."
This is something Sun Hao has never experienced before.
In a sense, he single-handedly brought this group of people to their current heights.
Then, Sun Hao took the initiative to go over and have a face-to-face meeting with Old Nelson.
Their master and apprentice had two marriages and a deep relationship.
Old Nelson patted Sun Hao on the shoulder like an elder. He understood Sun Hao's decision very well.
After greeting Nelson, preparations for the award ceremony began soon after.
The table with the championship rings was pushed to the center of the court, and the lights shone on it, reflecting the dazzling diamond light.
The value of the Warriors' championship rings last year broke the record, and this year it went even higher, with the cost of each ring reaching 1 million.
The extra money was naturally used on the size and number of diamonds.
In addition to the team icon on the front, there are also eye-catching numbers "74-8" below to remind you of the extraordinary significance of this championship ring.
The pile of rings placed there is really dazzling.
The Warriors are a dual-majority shareholder model. At this time, the two major owners, Joe Lacob and Pete Guber, were smiling particularly happily.
Although this ring is expensive, compared to the income these two champions bring to them, it is just a drop in the bucket.
This is also the reason why Boss Tsai was willing to pay such a high luxury tax in history. For some teams, championship means real money.
The ring awarding ceremony begins, first with the management and then with the coaching staff.
When it came to players, Sun Hao, the "Lakers player", turned out to be the first one.
Not only the fans, but also the Warriors management showed full respect to Sun Hao.
Even more than just respect.
When Sun Hao went to get the ring, the two bosses each gave him one.
It’s not that they sent it wrong, but it’s a warning.
One ring has "Sun" written on the side in Chinese, while the other ring has "Hao" written on the side!
In order to propose to Scarlett, Sun Hao asked for a pair of championship rings from the Lakers.
Now without Sun Hao opening his mouth, the Warriors gave him a pair, and they were such a special pair.
This is really thoughtful.
Sun Hao was also very moved after seeing it.
The two years of experience with the Warriors have come to a perfect end.
By the time Sun Hao raised the ring with both hands, the cheers could not stop.
Although he has left the Warriors, Sun Hao is still the owner of Oracle Arena at this moment.
After the award ceremony, the scene then entered the opening ceremony, and the starters of the two teams appeared one after another.
For the Lakers, Sun Hao can't play. Harris's starting lineup is: Knight, Crawford, Carter, Millsap and Hibbert.
For the Warriors, Curry, Raja Bell, Durant, Ibaka, Oden.
The strength of the two teams can be seen from the starting lineup.
Sun Hao can't play. This is a battle between championship teams and non-playoff teams.
After the game started, the situation was basically as expected. The Warriors suppressed the Lakers from the beginning and did not need the "Five Deaths".
For the Lakers, Carter's weakness and Crawford's poor shooting attributes were clearly reflected in the game.
The only stable point on the court is Millsap.
When Sun Hao was still with the Lakers, Millsap trained very hard. Over the years, he has continued to enrich his arsenal. He has grown from a blue-collar player who could only rely on air cuts to score points and rebounds to gain a foothold in the NBA. A quasi-All-Star player.
But relying on him alone, the Lakers obviously can't compete with the Warriors.
There are surprises for the Warriors, too.
That surprise came from Curry.
With Sun Hao leaving, Durant naturally became the core of the Warriors and the key defensive target of the Lakers.
Curry continues to use Durant's defense to contain points.
It was during this process that fans fully experienced a very rare trait of Curry.
His movement ability.
He shuttled back and forth on the court, using pick-and-rolls and various reverse runs to find opportunities.
Before this, the league also had a player of this ability: Richard Hamilton.
Curry runs no less than Hamilton, but what makes him stronger than Hamilton is that his shooting range is longer!
Don't underestimate this difference. It can be said that this difference is decisive.
Because if it's just mid-range, if you can help defend quickly enough, many times your movement will be in vain.
But when it comes to three-pointers, many times the opponent cannot help defend because of the distance.
And on this basis, Curry also showed another unique ability as Sun Hao's nephew: a super long three-pointer!
Therefore, the Lakers' defense against Curry can really be said to be impossible to guard against.
At the end of the game, the Lakers lost by a score of 91 to 111.
The game was decided in three quarters, and the last quarter was standard garbage time.
In terms of technical statistics, the Warriors' top scorers were Curry with 23 points, Durant with 21 points, Oden with 13 points and 11 rebounds, and Ibaka with 11 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.
For the Lakers, Millsap had 21 points and 11 rebounds, Carter had 16 points, Isaiah Thomas had 11 points, and Jimmy Butler had 5 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 steals.
After the opening game against the Warriors, the Lakers returned to Los Angeles. After just one day of rest, they faced the challenge of the Thunder at home.
Another important feature of the shortened season is the intensive schedule.
Although the reduction of games is unavoidable, the league will arrange as many games as possible in order to minimize losses.
Back-to-back games have become the norm, and there are even back-to-back schedules.
This kind of two games in three days is relatively easy.
The Thunder have high expectations this season, and the Thunder's players are eager to prove themselves.
However, they lost their first game to the more experienced Spurs.
So in this game, even if they played away from home, they still had enough energy.
Of course, Jeff Green must be mentioned here.
The Thunder's scoring leader was diagnosed with an aortic aneurysm before the start of the season, a life-threatening disease.
Jeff Green also had to undergo major surgery and was reimbursed for the season.
In the second game of the season, Sun Hao still sat on the sidelines.
The course of the game was different from the first game.
Harris made adjustments in this game, starting with Battier and letting Carter play the second position.
This adjustment is still very effective.
Although the overall offensive ability is slightly lower than the original lineup, the rhythm on the court is obviously stronger.
And Battier injected defensive capabilities into the Lakers that the original lineup did not have, making them look more like a "playoff-level" team.
However, the result was the same as the last game, the Lakers still lost to the Thunder 91-103.
The impact of the Thunder team is too strong.
Their impact is even greater than the Grizzlies.
Not to mention Westbrook, he is just a galloping horse with blood.
Then, there were two people sitting there right away, Griffin and DeAndre Jordan!
And another key figure for the Thunder that cannot be ignored is Billups, who joined in the summer.
The Thunder's lineup has everything except experience and organization, and Billups has both of them.
So he is the one at the helm, Westbrook only needs to be responsible for rushing, and Griffin and Jordan are always ready for alley-oops.
Even Jeff Green's absence doesn't seem so important.
After two consecutive losses at the start of the season, the league's penalties gave the Lakers a bad start to the new season.
However, the mentality of most fans is still relatively good.
After all, the opponents who lost the previous two games were not weak.
Then, it was the later games that really got them restless.
After two days of rest, the Lakers ushered in a legendary back-to-back.
They played against the Pacers, Trail Blazers and 76ers in three days.
As a result, they failed to win a single game and went from two consecutive losses at the beginning to five consecutive losses.
This record also refreshed the team's worst start since entering 2000.
With a new coaching staff and new players, the overall talent of the team is poor, and the lack of tacit understanding is also a big problem.
And the most terrible thing was the last game against the 76ers. Because the schedule was too intensive, Carter sprained his foot during the game.
One thing that many people haven't noticed is that Carter has become more attentive when playing since being stepped on by Bowen, and his style of play has changed a lot.
This has caused his game enjoyment and actual offensive threat to decline compared to his peak, but his attendance rate has become very high.
After joining the Lakers, he almost never missed a game.
But this time he was still injured, and the injury occurred in a non-confrontational manner, which shows the huge challenge that the intensive competition of the shortened season brings to the players.
Although Carter was checked after the game and only suffered a minor injury, he should be able to return after being absent for half a month.
But this is undoubtedly bad news for the Lakers, who are already in the midst of a losing streak.
A very cruel reality is that this Lakers team is likely to become a victim of a shortened season.
For current Lakers fans, the only thing they can look forward to is Sun Hao, who is about to return from suspension.
The Lakers' next opponent is the Wizards.
The Wizards' situation this season can be said to be similar to that of the Lakers.
They were beaten by the Pacers and Bulls in the same district at the beginning.
Like the Lakers, they had some injuries due to the intensity.
Moreover, the Wizards injured more important people than the Lakers. Yao Ming was injured.
An inevitable thing, Yao Ming is now 31 years old.
Although not gaining weight allowed Yao Ming to avoid devastating injuries, it is inevitable that the probability of injuries will increase as the inside line grows older.
And even without gaining weight, Yao Ming's size determines that he is a heavy center.
Therefore, like O'Neal, some injuries to the toes and soles of the feet are very difficult to avoid in the later stages of his career.
What we can even know from this detail is that Yao Ming has also reached the end of his peak.
The game was at the home court of the Wizards, and Sun Hao went to Washington with the team.
After arriving in Washington, the night before the game, Sun Hao took Yao Ming to have a small gathering outside as before.
During the lockout season, many players used their own methods to maintain game status.
But this does not include Yao Ming.
Yao Ming had some injuries last season, so he focused more on physical recovery.
He spent most of those months at his villa in Washington.
So this is the meeting between two people after many months.
They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Sun Hao had gone through a lot this past summer, so the two of them had no shortage of things to talk about.
That is to say, during the chat, Sun Hao mentioned the reasons why he chose to leave the Warriors for the first time with someone other than Jordan.
To challenge myself.
This reason sounds a little bit secondary, but it makes Yao Ming's expression look very complicated.
When he chose to stay with the Wizards, he was deeply loyal to the Chinese people, and of course he was unwilling to do so.
But the edges of stones will be smoothed by water flow, let alone people.
Counting from the time he entered the league to now, he has played for the Wizards for ten years.
In the past ten years, he has grown from immaturity to maturity, and then dedicated the peak of his career to the Wizards.
But until now, he still has not won a championship.
Especially in the past two years, let alone the championship, there is no chance to compete for the championship!
This is the cruelest thing for him.
His resolute "yes" when asked by the media if he could play in the NBA is enough to show that he is a very competitive person.
But now, Sun Hao is considering challenging himself, but he can do it by still accomplishing nothing.
What people fear most in life is not the fear of not living well, but the fear of comparison.
