Chapter 744 The Lakers' Thoughts

Wei Dazhi finally got out of the predicament with a news that he guessed, and then hurriedly took a shower, ate something casually, went downstairs and drove to the Lakers headquarters to meet Jerry Buss, and the two made an appointment to eat together a lunch.

In the past two years since Li Liang left, the Lakers and Bass had a hard time.

They won the championship in 2013, and the five-star Lakers reached their peak. Jerry Buss took this opportunity to consolidate his position in the team and overwhelmed his sister Jenny Buss.

But in the two seasons of 2014 and 2015, the Lakers failed to make the playoffs.

Especially in 2015, they once rushed to a very high position, but their record collapsed at the end of the season (the author forgot), and they fell directly out of the top eight in the Western Conference. One of the important reasons is that the contradiction between Kobe and Howard is getting worse. deep.

Unfortunately, the salaries of these two people almost fill up the team's space, but they can't have a good chemical reaction, which is the worst thing.

To make matters worse, although Kobe's condition is acceptable, his Achilles tendon injury and his aging make it impossible for him to return to the top. After 2013, Howard was also troubled by various injuries and could not become the former Warcraft.

In the 2015 season, he had to lose weight appropriately to ensure his state. As a result, his power on both ends of the offense and defense was greatly reduced, and he missed a large number of games due to back injuries at the end of the season.

The Lakers have reached the stage of selection again. It would be great if they could welcome Li Liang back at this time.

Bass did have such an idea, so he wanted to talk to Li Liang's friend Wei Dazhi to find out.

Now that Li Liang is not in the United States, neither is his agent, and no one can contact him. Of course, Wei Dazhi has become a favorite.

Bass made an appointment at a high-end restaurant near the headquarters, along with Magic Johnson and general manager Kupchak.

This battle is really not small, there is no way, Wei Dazhi is Li Liang's official spokesperson, everyone is convinced that Wei Dazhi has a pivotal right to advise Li Liang.

In fact, Wei Dazhi knew in his heart that he had a fart right to make suggestions.

Although the two have a good relationship, Li Liang is a very assertive person, and he doesn't listen to other people's opinions at all.

If he would listen to the advice of others, he would not leave the Lakers for the Clippers, nor would he leave the Clippers for the Cavaliers, and then switch from the Cavaliers to the Pacers. He is simply an arbitrary waste.

Wei Dazhi himself has a certainty in his heart, so he won't become inflated when he becomes famous. He thinks that he is Li Liang's good friend, so he can tell him what to do.

He's not that stupid, he knows who he owes everything he has today.

And he wished Li Liang would run around blindly. If Li Liang didn't run around, where would his social media attention come from?

Once a year, the third season of this year, and the fourth season next year, such a drama is unprecedented in NBA history.

Because of this, Wei Dazhi came to have dinner with the Lakers management this time, purely for dinner.

After arriving at the place, seeing Bass and others, Wei Dazhi has long since lost the excitement and nervousness of seeing idols in the past.

Like Magic Johnson, Wei Dazhi must not call his father-in-law when he sees him?

Several people greeted each other, this is a relatively high-end Chinese restaurant, and Little Bass is quite particular about serving the food.

Generally speaking, Chinese, Italians, Greeks and other southern Europeans prefer to discuss things at the dinner table.

The Anglo-Saxons in Britain and France prefer large receptions and parties, and eating is usually eating.

Little Bass invited Wei Dazhi to dinner, obviously respecting Wei Dazhi's customs. On the one hand, it shows that Wei Dazhi is really popular. A lot of them.

After chatting for a while, Bass got to the point, and he didn't make any detours, and said directly, "Bruce, does he have any plans to return to Los Angeles this summer?"

Wei Dazhi also answered simply, "I don't know."

But he added: "No one can guess Bruce's thoughts. When he left the Lakers, no one could have thought of it, right?"

"But he said he'd be back," Johnson said.

"But he didn't say when he would be back." Wei Dazhi took a sip of the wine in his glass and replied.

"To be honest, we really hope that he can come back. If possible...you can give him some advice, and then we can have more cooperation." Bass put forward the conditions bluntly.

For any reporter, the team's news resources are very important, especially the Lakers, a giant that attracts everyone's attention.

Wei Dazhi didn't change his expression. He knew in his heart that his greatest resource was Li Liang, not anything else. He wanted to interfere with Li Liang's thoughts for the sake of the Lakers' resources? He's not an idiot.

Of course, the words cannot be said to death, Wei Dazhi said: "Generally speaking, if Bruce has any ideas, he will reveal them to me, and maybe I can give you some references. Moreover, Bruce has a contract now, and the Lakers have no space. If you want to come, you must trade, you should look at the chips in your hands, whether you can impress Indiana and Larry Bird."

Wei Dazhi's words made sense, the magician said, "I'll contact Larry, but the bargaining chip..."

If Li Liang is to be replaced, it means that Wiggins will definitely be sent away.

Judging from Wiggins' performance in the first season, the talent is indeed at the No. 1 level, but it is indeed far behind Li Liang.

One is the No. 1 pick and the other is only No. 56. Why is there such a big gap?

Bass and Johnson tried again, but Wei Dazhi never gave clear information, and he couldn't give it. He really wasn't sure.

Kupchak has been talking very little, he has been listening, as a manager, his experience is older than Bass and the magician.

After eating, Wei Dazhi politely declined Bass' invitation to play golf. He was exhausted last night and wanted to take a good rest.

After saying goodbye, Bass, the magician, and Kupchak discussed and made up their minds.

Bass felt that Li Liang might not be so easy to persuade.

The two had conflicts when they were in the Lakers. Li Liang gave Buss a lot of embarrassment, and finally relied on him to win the championship.

Later, when Li Liang left, Bass didn't try to persuade him to stay, thinking that what would happen if he lost a second-round pick?

The result was nothing. The Lakers were still the Lakers, but they couldn't make it to the playoffs.

Now Bass has some regrets, especially Li Liang's performance in the playoffs this season is simply historic.

But he couldn't hold back his face, so he contacted Li Liang directly, so he had to go through Wei Dazhi.

How could he know that this fat man doesn't eat oil and salt, and his words are very beautiful, but he just doesn't give accurate words.

Johnson seemed quite optimistic, thinking that as long as he was sincere enough, Li Liang could return to the Lakers.

Kupchak had a different opinion. He said: "No, no, Bruce is an extremely assertive and thoughtful person. He has his own standards. It is estimated that others have no way to influence him. I think he will go back to Los Angeles. It's not very likely, I heard Kobe said that Bruce will not come back until Kobe retires."

"Then why not let Kobe retire?" Buss said.

You're such a talented person, what are you doing to recruit Li Liang?

Kupchak rolled his eyes towards Bass in his heart, and then said: "And we have to pay attention, Bruce only stays in each team for one season, and he will probably only stay for one season when he comes to the Lakers. We still have to Look at it from a long-term perspective."

Kupchak's words are actually very reasonable, but the temptation is too great for Li Liang to win the championship, although no one knows what will happen next season.

"Then what should we do?" Bass thought it would be more reliable to listen to Kupchak.

"You know, now that Leonard has decided to jump out of his contract and not renew his contract with the Spurs, I think this may be an opportunity. Also, I think it is necessary to deal with Dwight's contract, right?"

Kupchak's little brain started to spin.
