NBA: This Center Is So Stable

The first time, the second time.

Chapter 121 Zen Master’s Plan

“It is in our plan to beat the Kings, but we have to admit that the Sacramento fans and their home team have put a lot of pressure on us. I believe Mr. Rick will lead the Kings to be more fully prepared next time we meet.”

“What about the Los Angeles Lakers? That is a strong team. They have created three consecutive championship dynasties in this century, and they still retain a relatively complete dynasty lineup. Maybe they will be the strongest opponent we encounter this season, but the Knicks will do their best. After all, the Knicks this season are the embodiment of miracles. At the beginning of the new season, who would have thought that the team that ranked last last season could get it at the beginning of the season. 21 consecutive wins? I can’t ask these young people to do more, but the Knicks players are always creating surprises for our coaching team! ”

“As for Wang Song… If the Knicks’ 21 consecutive wins are a miracle, then there is no doubt that he is the miracle maker! The beginning of the Knicks’ legend in the new season is inseparable from this Chinese rookie. He can always burst out incredible energy in the game, just like today, he seems to have completed 30+20 easily, and what is more surprising is that his role on the court far exceeds the exaggerated data. ”

···

In front of the camera, D’Antoni calmly responded to various media.

Wang Song is no exception.

As the focus player of this game, Wang Song has received no less media attention than D’Antoni.

The local media in Sacramento tried to put some pressure on this young man and force him to reveal flaws off the court.

Unexpectedly, Wang Song, who is only 19 years old, is more mature than they thought.

“There is no doubt that Chris Webber was once a rare and excellent forward in the NBA, but I play as a center. Unfortunately, the advantage of mismatch is irresistible!”

“As for Shaquille O’Neal, you can compare me with him as much as possible, but I can only say that this guy is the same as Webber. They are both dominant inside players in the league in the past two years, but now he can no longer control the Lakers locker room. He should probably solve the troubles in the Lakers.”

···

The sharp-tongued answer directly pushed Wang Song to the forefront, and although the Sacramento media was somewhat disdainful of the answer of this Chinese boy, it was real good material for them.

When a player is labeled as “arrogant”, there are many ways for the media to create news full of gimmicks.

With the full support of the Sacramento media, controversial news spread in street newspapers in major cities in the United States and online media such as ESPN.

“30+20! The strongest rookie on the planet in the 21st century has been born!”

“How did the Knicks build their glory with 21 consecutive wins? And where will the glory stop!”

“Knicks rookie: All-Star power forward is vulnerable to the mismatch advantage!”

“The battle for the top center in the East and West, before the strong dialogue, Shaquille O’Neal should first maintain his position as the boss of the Lakers locker room!”

There are countless reports like this. The Knicks who defeated the Kings not only achieved 21 consecutive wins, but also welcomed the attention of the whole United States.

The story of this team and the player Wang Song is circulating in the streets and alleys.

As a member of the Western Conference, Los Angeles quickly received the news.

Staples Center, Lakers coaching office!

O’Neal took the latest “Los Angeles Times” and flipped through it. As he flipped through the newspaper, his face gradually darkened.

The Zen Master in front of him stared at O’Neal’s expression, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, and said at the right time: “Shaquille!”

“Have you seen the remarks of that oriental kid, our opponent in the next game?”

Before the Zen Master finished speaking, O’Neal threw the crumpled newspaper into the trash can.

“Humph, what an arrogant and arrogant rookie!”

O’Neal’s disdainful snort made the Zen Master smile faintly.

Although O’Neal didn’t seem to care much about the remarks of the Knicks rookie, the Zen Master knew the Big Shark too well.

The fat man was obviously irritated!

“Shaq, you have seen it too, now anyone dares to ride on the Lakers’ heads and jump back and forth. I hope the movement in the locker room can be restrained recently.”

The Zen Master paused, glanced at the reaction of the Big Shark, and then added: “Whether you and Kobe

No matter how bad your relationship is, I hope you can make a brief reconciliation and don’t let me see you two fighting on the field again! ”

O’Neal rarely refuted and left the office directly.

The Zen Master looked at O’Neal’s back thoughtfully.

Although he had just led the Lakers to create a dynasty as the head coach of the Lakers, it is easy to establish a dynasty, but it is difficult to maintain it.

The situation in the Lakers is now more complicated than that of the legendary Bulls when he coached. Kobe’s growth rate is indeed rapid, but Kobe in his growth period is not as influential as Jordan after all, and he can’t suppress O’Neal who is also in his prime.

The conflict between the Lakers’ inside and outside lines and the core inside line almost made the Zen Master and even the entire Lakers management team have a big head.

Especially between Kobe, who is growing rapidly, and the Great Shark, who is at the end of his peak, the Zen Master can be said to be pulling back and forth, trying to make the two men negotiate.

But the conflict between the two is like a pass after a rainstorm. After losing to the Spurs in the Western Conference semifinals of the playoffs last season, it broke out completely.

According to the current trend, if the Lakers form an F this year, 4 If they still can’t win the championship, then this space battleship will face the situation of disintegration.

The upcoming home game against the Knicks is a turning point for the Lakers OK in the eyes of the Zen Master.

If OK can cooperate to defeat this Knicks, then perhaps the irreconcilable contradiction can be buffered to a certain extent.

While the Zen Master was fully preparing for the game, a private plane flew through the clouds and landed at the Los Angeles Airport.

Compared with Sacramento, Los Angeles, the second largest city in the United States, is still much more magnificent.

After landing, they checked into a high-standard five-star hotel in the local area. The Knicks players chose to go out for a full meal and relax.

In the game against the Lakers, the Knicks coaching staff including D’Antoni did not put too much psychological pressure on the players.

Besides, the players who just won the Kings with difficulty deserve to celebrate.

Wang Song is no exception!

After having enough wine and food, the Knicks players proposed to go to the famous bar SOUND in Los Angeles NIGHT CLUB, led by Houston, a nightclub enthusiast.

The loud noise from the bar hit his eardrums, and Wang Song, a teammate who was enjoying himself, slipped out under the pretext of going to the bathroom.

When he came out to get some fresh air, he saw a young and somewhat familiar face.
