The rest is just noise

At the beginning of December, Lu Wuxia, who had just turned 12, reached a height of 1.84 meters. Compared with a few years ago, his height growth rate has slowed down significantly. However, in front of most of his peers, he still has obvious height growth.

height advantage.

Some high school scouts believe that Wu Xia is one of the top young players in the country, and if he continues to develop at this rate, he will undoubtedly have NBA prospects.

Louis is very happy that his son has inherited the best genes of himself and Lorraine, namely height, brains, touch, and appearance.

Wu Xia also has some things that Louis and Lorraine don't have, such as an innate sense of ball and outstanding physical coordination.

The shortcoming is that the dynamic talents such as speed, explosive power and physical fitness are slightly average.

But he is only 12 years old, and it is hard to say what his future will be like.

Basketball Digest, a well-known sports magazine, introduced Lu Wuxia to fans in a long article titled "Theson of God".

In the article, they describe Wu Xia as an all-around player who can play five positions.

From this day on, the title of "Son of God" was engraved on him forever, just like "The Great Dipper" was to Chamberlain, "The Conqueror" was to Wilson, and "Mr. Only" was to Sampson.

12-year-old Lu Wuxia suddenly became famous. In addition to his identity, his father's deep fatherly love also contributed to the situation.

At this stage, Wu Xia is almost invincible in competitions of his age in Los Angeles.

Of course, Louis would not be so naive as to think that Wu Xia is truly invincible at the same level. Among other things, there are two super talents in Akron and Baltimore who can compete with him.

Louis not only built momentum for his son, but also put the title of "generation" on Wu Xia's head.

He wants people to think that Wu Xia is the best player of this generation.

Once he is widely considered the strongest, he will continue to face challenges.

Those opponents who are weaker than him will find ways to defeat him, and those opponents who are stronger are eager to become famous by defeating him. He will become a thorn in the eyes of all students at the same level.

If he doesn't want to be defeated, Wu Xia must find ways to become stronger. There is no chance of being complacent, because he may meet another T.J. Ford who makes him powerless in a youth training camp organized by a legendary star.

However, no matter how great his father's love is, during this period of time, Louis can only allocate a small part of his time to his children.

The season continues.

The Lakers' winning streak ended at the hands of the Heat.

Like the Knicks, the Heat have many internal conflicts.

The progressive luxury tax requires them to control spending, but it is difficult to optimize salary space during the season.

Shafir Lewis was exhausted mentally and physically from this, and Danny Manning, the troublemaker, was like a perpetual motion machine, never regaining his composure.

People thought that Manning would play honestly after forcing Sampson away, but they didn't expect that he would still be so brave.

Successfully forcing Sampson away made Mourning realize how influential he was, and he began to want a higher tactical status, more firing rights, and fewer defensive tasks.

In the past, Sampson was there to protect the basket and Rodman was there to clean up. Now that both of them have been driven away by Manning, then Manning should take over their burdens.

Manning's reaction to this was, "I don't think there are superstars who put all their efforts on the defensive end.

Billy Donovan tried to use Ewing's example to convince Manning.

Unexpectedly, Manning spoke like an old black man when he spoke: "That's because he has Sean Kemp, Reggie Miller, John Stockton..."

Donovan wanted to say, you have Petrovich, Drexler, (Reggie) Lewis around you... why can't you be like Ewing?

Donovan didn't say that in the end, because he knew that once he spoke, the consequences would be unpredictable.

With Manning's giant baby character, there is no guarantee that there will be another drama of "only one of us, Donovan and I, can stay".

To this day, Donovan once again laments Louis' ability to foresee unstable factors.

Before the Heat traded Manning, Shafir and Donovan both consulted Louis and wanted to know whether the deal was feasible.

road

Yi said at the time that Manning could bring one or two championships to the Heat in the short term, but over time, he might become a monster.

Because he is not a peaceful person.

And what about Hank Gathers, who was abandoned by Shafir and ruthlessly sent to Indiana? He didn't complain about anything, never disliked the cornfield, did everything the team asked him to do, and made the Pacers

Still remaining among the top teams in the Eastern Conference.

If Manning had not been traded, perhaps the cosmic heat would still be the cosmic heat, and the only thing that could stop them from dominating was the league's natural punishment - the luxury tax.

Even though the Heat were suffering from serious internal friction, they still defeated the Lakers.

Because Wilson felt discomfort in his ankle at the beginning, Louis replaced him based on the principle of safety first.

Louis doesn't like everything about Manning, but his type of fourth position is a Tenke Barkley type, too comprehensive and too flexible.

Barkley couldn't match him, so Louis asked Garnett to match up, but the Heat was beaten inside.

And Garnett was toyed with by Manning for a whole game because of his experience.

If it weren't for the hot three-point shooting of Ellis and Liu Yuqing, the Lakers might have lost by a few points.

Due to Wilson's absence, Louis did not start "Beautiful Basketball", and in the last eight minutes, Buck Williams led Kobe, Nash, Worthy, and Ostertag to finish the garbage time.

Manning was the best player tonight, scoring 42 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists in 36 minutes.

After the game, he expressed arrogantly that he was confident to avenge the Knicks in the Eastern Conference finals and regain the championship.

It was obvious that the great powers in the west were no longer in his sight.

"Danny, do you really think you can win a championship again?"

Manning said confidently: "Of course, our pursuit of the championship will not stop because of anyone's absence. As long as I am here, everything is possible!"

Manning's postgame rant irritated Barkley.

"He's nothing without Ralph!" Barkley yelled in the locker room.

The feud between Barkley and Manning stems from this summer's dream second selection. Barkley wanted to enter the palace for the second time, but Manning snatched the opportunity. But the two of them are not in a competitive relationship.

The reason why two people can only choose one is because they both only accept that they are the @ starter of the dream team.

It's not that Barkley is unwilling to compete, he is very willing to compete with Manning like Stockton and Pippen did.

But Manning didn't want to compete with him at all. He went directly to the selection committee and listed ten reasons why he was more qualified than Barkley to be selected as the second starter in the Dream League.

Three of them are like this:

His endorsement products are similar to those of the national team, so he will not cause a flag scandal like the Dream Team;

His professional attitude and spirit are stronger than Barkley's; he has championships, but Barkley does not.

Forget it about professionalism and product endorsements, but if the championship is to be used as an excuse, Barkley can't bear it. This foot just stepped on Barkley's tail.

Manning and Sampson teamed up to win the championship, Barkley and Jordan teamed up for three consecutive championships, and now the future of the first year of teaming up with Wilson is uncertain. I don't know what will happen in the future.

It was also for this reason that when he met the Heat, Barkley couldn't control his emotions and his performance was abnormal. He was beaten by Manning on the defensive end and had no corresponding effect on the offensive end.

Now seeing Manning's face after winning the game, he was naturally furious.

At this time, a high school student with varying emotional intelligence said: "If you have a champion, you can also say the same."

"You idiot kid, do you know how difficult it is to win the championship!!"

"Let me go, I must teach him a lesson today!"

Louis appeared at some point, came to the rescue for the dumb high school boy, and rubbed salt on Barkley's wounds: "Did Bean make a mistake, Chuck? You really don't have a championship."

Barkley shouted angrily: "Can a championship mean everything?"

If someone can lose multiple Finals with a Finals performance like 69 West, Louis can say that even if that player never wins a championship, he can still be ranked among the "greatest."

But until someone like that comes along, professional basketball will always be

Yuan lives under the preposition of "What kind of champion are you?"

Looking at Barkley's collapsed expression, Louis said ruthlessly: "Yes, the championship can represent everything."

"I don't want to hear this shit anymore!" Barkley growled. "I can't stand this anymore!"

Ellis said coldly: "Then win the championship."

"Yes, if you win the championship, there will be no such troubles!" Barros nodded.

They reminded Dumas of sad things.

"You are wrong. Even if you win the championship, there will be a lot of trouble." Dumas said, "But winning the championship is still very important."

Barkley, who was about to break the pot, asked angrily: "When will we win the championship?"

"At this point, right now, this season, we want to win the championship."

Louis said with a confident tone.
