Silently Writing
Chapter 705 The Most Important Signing!
Online...
After the Lakers and Heat officially completed the trade for His Majesty the King, fans quickly divided into several camps.
Among them, the Fengmi (fans of Su Feng) who have always chanted "Feng, fly with confidence, Mom will always follow" believed that no matter where Su Feng chooses to go, they will unconditionally choose to continue supporting him.
The more rational faction of Fengmi believed that if the Lakers cannot complete the subsequent signings as soon as possible, even Su Feng would find it difficult to pull the Lakers, who are mired in the mud, out of the quagmire.
As for the Fenghei (haters of Su Feng) who think everything Su Feng does is wrong?
Without a doubt.
In this summer when the "Feng" is blowing so hard that people can hardly breathe...
While the Lakers fans think they have seen the dawn...
The Fenghei also believed that they, who are in the long night, have already seen the hope as precious as a diamond!
"I said long ago that without teammates, Su is at most an ordinary star.
You just wait and see, the Lakers next season will definitely not even make the playoffs!"
"According to the Lakers' official statement, Kobe is definitely going to miss all the games next season.
Just asking...
Will your King have excellent teammates like Vince, Tracy, Michael, Manu, and Shaq at that time?"
"Upstairs, even if Kobe can make it to the games next season, what can the Lakers do?
Su will be 30 years old next year, and he doesn't have many years left to be popular.
In my opinion, his choice of the Lakers this time is for retirement."
"The Lakers are absolutely crazy!
As a rational and objective Lakers fan, I simply can't understand why we should spend so many chips to trade for a player who is about to turn 30."
In Su Feng's previous life, he never understood why Durant liked to use a small account to argue with those haters.
But in this life...
As his fame grew...
Su Feng found that...
Anyone who is a normal person would find it difficult not to be affected by these haters' remarks.
And you think Su Feng's personal honor is hard enough, so he can't have haters, or these haters can't find an angle to criticize him?
No!
The opposite is true...
The stronger Su Feng's current dominance is, the harder these haters' mouths will be.
However, in recent years, after gradually developing his mentality by these haters...
Su Feng found that...
If there are fewer haters in competitive sports...
Then the attention you get when you reach the top will be reduced a lot.
Look...
Look...
Isn't the stage for Su Feng after joining the Lakers built by this group of haters?
...
7th.
The day after Su Feng joined the Lakers through a sign-and-trade.
As one of the conditions for Su Feng to join the Lakers...
Tyronn Lue, the former Raptors and Hawks star who had just announced his retirement, officially became the head coach of the Lakers in the new season.
In Su Feng's original timeline...
After the 12/13 season ended, in the 13/14 season, Kidd also picked up the coaching whip and became the head coach of the Nets at that time.
However, compared with the famous Kidd...
Los Angeles, when the Lakers fans who were still immersed in the joy of the coming of Emperor Feng found that...
The Lakers' new season head coach was actually Tyronn Lue, an unknown person...
For a time, the Lakers fans, who had just regained some trust in the management, instantly started a new round of condemnation of the Lakers management!
"Su must have been cheated by the Lakers, right?
My God, he is clearly here to save Los Angeles...
But is this how you treat him?"
"Tyronn Lue...
A player who has spent most of his career on the bench, does he really understand basketball?" (Riley, Sloan, Jackson:?)
Online, regarding the matter of letting the 31-year-old coach Lue be the head coach of the Lakers...
The public opinion was almost overwhelmingly criticizing the Lakers management.
Even...
Even Kobe didn't understand why Su Feng would offer such a joining condition to the Lakers.
So, on this day, looking at Su Feng, Kobe also revealed his true thoughts to him.
"Su, are you sure Lue can be the helmsman of this Lakers team?"
Hearing this, looking at Kobe's proud little expression, at this moment, even if Su Feng was picking his toes, he could guess what this guy was thinking.
"Oh, that hateful, damn substitute.
Who is he?
Why should he come to coach the great Kobe Bryant?"
Learning Kobe's tone, Su Feng said to Kobe with a smile on his face.
Kobe: "..."
"Okay, the great Kobe Bryant, who do you think is the best candidate for the head coach of this Lakers team?" Patting Kobe on the shoulder, Su Feng asked.
After being stunned for a while, Kobe, who knew that Su Feng knew himself better than himself, also said bluntly: "At least it has to be a head coach of Phil Jackson's level, right?"
"And then?
When the two of us lead the Lakers back to the top, should we cut half of the cake for him first?" Looking at Kobe with a serious face, Su Feng said.
In Su Feng's original timeline, it was clear that he had successively embraced the thighs of Jordan, Pippen, Kobe, O'Neal, Gasol, etc...
But when people talked about the Bulls dynasty, the Lakers dynasty, and the "Lakers second dynasty", Jackson seemed to be the one with the most credit.
Especially in Jackson's later memoirs...
That was even more directly blowing himself into God.
And in his words, Jackson also mentioned many times how difficult it was for Jordan, Kobe, and others to get along with.
The implication was that if it wasn't for him, Jordan and Kobe would not have been able to win the championship at all?
But...
Isn't winning the championship a matter of everyone achieving each other?
To put it bluntly, without Jackson, maybe Jordan and others would have won one or two fewer championships.
But without Jordan, Kobe, O'Neal...
May I ask, how many championships can Jackson win?
Wake up!
In the NBA, even if you have the most advanced tactics, it is the players who go on the court to execute them.
For example, in the future, when Kerr was recuperating due to injury, Walton also led the Warriors, who were all full-level accounts, to create the best start in the history of the four major North American sports leagues.
Does this mean that Walton is better than Kerr?
Admittedly, the young coach Lue will definitely have many shortcomings compared to the old coach Lue in the future.
However, it is precisely because he has no qualifications at all now that Su Feng firmly believes that he is the best candidate for the head coach of this Lakers team.
And...
Because coach Lue is young enough, when he needs to take the blame to share the pressure for the players, he will not shirk the blame like those coaches who have already cultivated the "non-stick pan" stunt.
In addition, for Su Feng and Kobe...
In the process of achieving each other with coach Lue, the two of them can further amplify their brilliance on the court.
And these advantages...
Without a doubt.
Are not possessed by the "Jacksons".
Moreover, judging from the coaching talent that coach Lue will show in the NBA in the future...
To be honest, in Su Feng's eyes, coach Lue is definitely worthy of the evaluation of "yyds" (eternal god).
In the NBA, an excellent coach often only needs to have a good relationship with the players to do it.
Because in this commercial league, a head coach who cannot get along with the stars is destined not to survive three episodes.
And if you want to become a famous coach recognized by everyone, then in addition to having a good relationship with the stars, you often have to have some of your own routines.
For example, Jackson's triangle offense, and Adelman's Princeton.
But...
If you want to become a "legendary famous coach" like Davis...
Then in addition to the above conditions, you must also be able to make a series of responses based on the characteristics of the players you said in the team.
And judging from coach Lue's future coaching career...
Su Feng believed...
As long as coach Lue is given some time, he will definitely be able to think out a set of tactics and play styles that are most suitable for this Lakers team in the future.
After all, Su Feng is not a god...
In fact, after deciding to join the Lakers, how he can coexist perfectly with the current Kobe on the court is the question of the century that Su Feng has been thinking about.
Because compared with the "Raul Marion Twins" of that year...
Today's Su Feng and Kobe have already grown into two "old tumors"...
Therefore, even Su Feng, he would not dare to guarantee that he and Kobe will be 1+1 greater than 2, or less than 2 in the future.
Therefore...
In Su Feng's eyes, I am afraid that no one is more suitable for the head coach of this Lakers team than coach Lue, who knows that "giving the ball to the best player on the court is the best tactic".
Early August.
As Su Feng joined the Lakers, just as countless Lakers fans were still thinking about how the Lakers should strengthen their team...
In fact, amid the scolding of the world...
The Lakers have already completed the most important signing of the reconstruction.
On the 7th, on the same day that the Lakers officially announced that Tyronn Lue would be the team's new season head coach, after officially reaching a buyout agreement with Barcelona Club, Marc Gasol also landed in the NBA a year earlier than Su Feng remembered.
As we all know, due to the relevant amount restrictions on the NBA regarding buyouts with European parent teams, Gasol also paid a buyout fee out of his own pocket in order to fight alongside his idol.
"Stupid! You are simply not ready to play in the NBA now!
But you just bought out your contract like this...
What if you can't get along in the NBA?" Looking at his silly brother, Gasol, who was preparing for the Eurobasket with the Spanish men's basketball team, was also stunned.
"Then brother, why were you able to make up your mind to go to the United States in the first place?
If I remember correctly, you also paid 1.6 million US dollars to buy out the contract with Barcelona in order to play basketball in the United States, right?" Looking at Gasol, Gasol said with a solemn expression.
In 2001, in order to be able to show his talents in the NBA, Pau Gasol, who was already one of the best inside players in Europe at that time, made the most important bet in his personal career.
You know...
That was 1.6 million US dollars in 2001.
You know, a few years ago, 1.6 million US dollars was even Pippen's dream "high salary".
However, in order to play in the NBA, in that era, what international players like Yao and Gasol paid was more than just their enthusiasm and love for basketball?
Just...
It is precisely because he knows the risks involved...
So when his stupid brother was preparing to go to the NBA like himself...
Gasol couldn't help but want to dissuade him.
Maybe, when they were young, many younger brothers were beaten by their older brothers.
But only when you grow up can you understand...
That's because the older brother loves you so deeply! (Younger brothers: So we deserve to be beaten?)
"It's different, can you compare with me?
The Lakers just selected you in the second round, and they traded Su...
Marc, to be honest, it is too difficult for you to gain a foothold in this Lakers team in the future." On this day, looking at Gasol, who had made up his mind, Gasol said helplessly.
Hearing this...
At this moment, Gasol also held his breath in his heart like the young Sasuke.
Yes!
You are the noble Tanhualang (third overall pick)!
And I am just a humble second-round pick.
But...
Your last name is Gasol, and isn't my last name Gasol too?
Wait, brother!
One day...
I will definitely tell you with my actions...
I am not the kind of stupid younger brother who only hides behind his older brother.
I...
I am also a man who can support the Spanish men's basketball team!
August of this year.
Under the stimulation of his older brother, Gasol officially started his weight loss journey, which was later called a miracle by people who lose weight.
In China, after the final selection stage of "This is Slam Dunk" was opened, Yao Ming, who was the mentor of Yao's team, and Kobe, who was the mentor of Kobe's team, showed the world...
What is called black belly and poisonous tongue.
In the first stage of the 180-to-60 selection...
It was clear that Stephen Curry's team had already won in the 3v3, but Kobe refused to give him a direct pass because Curry passed the ball behind his back too many times in the game.
"With your attitude towards basketball, I can't let you advance!" In Kobe's opinion, even if you are leading by a large score, you can't treat basketball as a skill show.
On the basketball court, passing the ball behind the back can indeed have a surprising effect at certain moments.
However, in the case that Curry had already made two consecutive back pass errors on the court...
Kobe believed that at least for the third time, Curry should not have chosen to show off his skills to the judges.
"Are you being too strict?" Looking at Kobe, who almost scolded Curry to tears at that time, Su Feng, as the chief mentor, asked softly.
"Strict?
If he really likes basketball.
Then he should treat every game as an honor, not a skill show." Looking back at Su Feng, Kobe, who still refused to give Curry a direct pass, said.
On the other side, after learning from his older brother's experience and lessons, in the subsequent 3-on-3 round, Seth Curry conquered Yao and Kobe with his calm performance.
Just...
When it was Sun Yue's turn to play, an accident happened again on the scene.
Because in the game, Sun Yue performed a crowd-pleasing crotch-changing dunk, so the live director mischievously gave Su Feng a close-up shot.
Then, the players in the stadium also consciously shouted "Dunk one, dunk one".
Just...
Originally...
After being put on the spot by the atmosphere, Su Feng initially planned to casually dunk one to perfunctorily.
But who would have thought...
"Brother Feng, with your jumping ability, a between-the-legs dunk from the free throw line should be a piece of cake for you, right?" Looking at Su Feng, Yao Ming said with his thick eyebrows and big eyes.
"However, Brother Feng, don't force yourself too much.
Because if you fail to dunk, it would be too embarrassing." After a pause, Yao Ming added with a smile.
Su Feng: "..."
Maybe for the fans in front of the TV, Yao Ming was just trying to stimulate Su Feng for the sake of the show's effect at that time.
But Su Feng knew very well...
Yao's implication was clearly:
Brother Feng, if you feel reluctant, then I can continue to be the flag bearer for next year's Olympic Games.
Good for you, Nü Zhao Ri Yue!
Wukesong Basketball Gymnasium.
After waving his hand to let everyone clear the stage for himself, Su Feng immediately grabbed the ball with one hand and jumped from the free throw line, and completed the between-the-legs in the air.
Boom——!
As Su Feng immersed his right elbow, along with the ball, into the basket...
The 180 athletes in the stadium, like the fans in Oakland that year, all showed shocked faces!
This...
Is slam dunk!
