Pirates: I am Six Eyes Sukuna, the strongest one

While Han Yi was on his trip to Asia, the free trade market in the NBA was in full swing!

The first big deal this summer was the Houston Rockets selling Scottie Pippen, who had just signed a five-year, $77.36 million contract last year, to the Portland Trail Blazers!

Last season was the first season after Scottie Pippen left the Bulls. For Pippen, championships were not important. What was important was that he finally got a big contract!

You should know that Pippen's last contract was a seven-year, $20 million child labor contract in 1991. Just considering the child labor contract, no one in the NBA can touch Scottie Pippen!

The total salary Pippen received during his six championships was only a little more than what Pippen earned in one season last year!

Of course, Pippen is not taking money without doing anything. Last season, Pippen was selected to the league's best defensive team, averaging 14.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists, and 2 steals. Although the data has declined compared to the Bulls period, this is not a decline in Pippen's strength. It is more due to the fact that there are offensive masters such as Hakeem Olajuwon and Charles Barkley in the team. He only needs to do a good job of organizing and connecting.

But the result is that the Rockets were eliminated by the young OK combination in the first round. The Rockets needed a scapegoat, so Pippen became the scapegoat and went to the Trail Blazers with his blankets. The Trail Blazers reaped the final glory after getting Pippen.

Of course, none of this matters, because for the Celtics led by Han Yi, only the guy who can enter the finals is their opponent. The Rockets are strong, and the Trail Blazers are not weak, but they have no chance in the next few years!

Because the Lakers' OK combination has finally grown up!

But for the Lakers, the growth of the OK combination can only be put aside for the time being, because the reason why the Lakers can win three consecutive championships in the next three years of the last life is the most important signing this summer!

Lakers General Manager Jerry West and the Bulls' meritorious coach Phil Jackson reached a 5-year, 30 million coaching contract.

Phil Jackson returned after a year of rest and will coach the Los Angeles Lakers led by the OK combination!

As soon as Phil Jackson joined the Lakers, big news broke out: Phil Jackson sincerely invited Michael Jordan, who was unemployed at home, to join the Lakers to win more championships!

And Jordan gave a very clear answer: It’s okay for me to join the Lakers, but first, I want the Lakers’ equity, and second, I must be the tactical core of the Lakers!

When this news broke, Lakers boss Shaquille O'Neal was not anxious yet, but Kobe Bryant was anxious first:

"I don't care whether Jordan comes to the Lakers or not, but I absolutely can't continue to play as a substitute. Jordan is old, now is my time. If I am asked to be a substitute again, I will apply for a trade!"

O'Neal also doesn't want Jordan to join. He is in his prime now, how can he help the old Jordan? O'Neal doesn't want to be the next Dennis Rodman!

But for the Lakers management, it doesn't matter who is the boss. The most important thing is whether he can lead the Lakers to win the championship. If Jordan just wants to be the boss, then the Lakers will nod and agree without any hesitation!

The problem lies in Jordan's first request: to have shares in the Lakers!

This request is too deadly for the Buss family who controls the Lakers!

If the Buss family is Paul Allen, the owner of the Trail Blazers, who does not rely on the team to make money at all, and is a top billionaire himself, then they may really agree!

But for the Buss family, the reason why they became rich is because of the golden signboard of the Los Angeles Lakers. The whole family is counting on the golden hen of the Los Angeles Lakers to lay eggs and appreciate in value!

Jordan, you ask the Buss family for equity, isn’t that asking for the lifeblood of their family?

And you are not 27-year-old Jordan, but 37-year-old Jordan. You are old enough to retire, and you still come to our Lakers to blackmail us, right?

Reject! Decisive rejection!

Michael Jordan, who has been rejected, has to say that he feels a little uncomfortable. He feels that he is still the best in the league and can continue to win the championship as long as he returns.

If he joins the Lakers, he is confident that he can beat Han Yi, but he didn’t expect the Lakers to reject him because of the equity issue...

Michael Jordan thought about deleting the equity request, but he didn’t say it after all, because he had to save face...

So the second comeback journey of the basketball god Michael Jordan was stillborn before it even started, and he continued to wait for another sucker to meet his two requirements...

AndThe day after Phil Jackson failed to get Jordan to join the team, he thought about Kobe again.

Phil Jackson certainly knew why the Lakers chose him among many coaches, in order to solve the conflict between the current top center Shaquille O'Neal and the potential new star Kobe Bryant!

O'Neal felt that Kobe, this kid, didn't know how high the sky was and didn't respect him at all. What's more hateful is that the Lakers management, who should have suppressed Kobe with him, always indulged Kobe too much.

Kobe felt that although O'Neal was very strong, he was too lazy in training and too strong and overbearing in the locker room, and he was not worthy of being his boss.

The Lakers management hoped that Phil Jackson, who had arranged the Bulls locker room clearly, could clean up the mess of the Lakers locker room now.

Phil Jackson was obviously ready to solve the problem that troubled the Lakers once and for all after he came. After he came, Phil Jackson took the initiative to talk to the owner of the Suns about the deal between Kobe Bryant and Jason Kidd!

Obviously, this is a deal that both sides need. The Suns need a new king with a higher ceiling. In the past few years when Kidd was the boss, the Suns have always been tepid. It is no problem to enter the playoffs, but it seems hopeless to go further in the playoffs.

The Lakers need a guy who can pass the ball to O'Neal better. As for the ceiling, it is not important.

In Phil Jackson's conception, O'Neal is the center version of Michael Jordan, and Jason Kidd is the guard version of Pippen that Jackson loves: top defense and the league's top passer.

What is the best way to solve the contradiction of the OK combination?

Answer: Dismantle the OK combination!

21-year-old Kobe loves to make trouble? Wouldn't it be better if I directly replaced him with the mature and steady 26-year-old Kidd?
