Silently Writing

Chapter 887 Curtain Call (Part 1) (A Huge Chapter of 20,000 Words, Though Late, Has Arrived!)

Chapter 887 Dynasty Tour

After the dynasty tour, Kobe chose to stay in Los Angeles with Vanessa to make babies, while Su Feng returned to China to visit his family.

A few days later, the 2015 NBA Draft took place at the Barclays Center, home of the Brooklyn Nets.

As expected, the Timberwolves failed to draw the No. 1 pick for the second year in a row.

The Milwaukee Bucks, using their previously drawn No. 1 overall pick in the 2015 draft, unhesitatingly selected Karl-Anthony Towns.

I wonder if in this life, with the Bucks also having an excellent corporate culture, Towns can live up to expectations.

With the second overall pick, the Phoenix Suns selected D'Angelo Russell and immediately traded him to the Spurs.

After the trade, the Suns received the Spurs' eighth overall pick in this year's draft, as well as Nerlens Noel.

In Su Feng's previous life, as the No. 2 pick in 2015, Russell's later performances were actually not that bad.

Because if Russell was considered a bust...

How many No. 2 picks in this league would have to commit seppuku?

However, due to the incident where Russell backstabbed Nick Young early in his career, teammates kept him at arm's length no matter which team he was traded to.

In Su Feng's original timeline, Russell secretly recorded a conversation with Nick Young in which he learned that Young had been cheating on his girlfriend, and then posted the recording online.

Honestly... morally speaking, Young was at fault.

But in the NBA, the most taboo thing for players is having a teammate like Russell, who tells the story of the locker room to the outside world.

Especially since Russell thought it was funny at the time and made it public?

Therefore, no matter which team Russell was traded to in the future, it was difficult for him to integrate into the team's locker room.

After all...

For these NBA players who are already missing a few screws, who wouldn't be afraid of Russell stabbing them in the back in the future?

At the draft, after the trade between the Suns and the Spurs, the Magic and Timberwolves used their third and fourth overall picks to select Jahlil Okafor and Justice Winslow, respectively.

As a team with a tradition of centers, the Magic's management was very optimistic about Okafor, who had a good physique.

The Timberwolves hesitated for a while, but ultimately chose to pass on Kristaps Porziņģis.

In Su Feng's original timeline, the Knicks' selection of "Porzingis" with the fourth overall pick was itself a gamble.

Otherwise, that Knicks fan sitting on site at the time wouldn't have cried his eyes out because of the team's "stupid choice."

Unlike Yao Ming, who was a proper traditional center.

No matter how you look at Porziņģis, who is 221 cm tall, he looks more like a small forward.

Before the draft, Porziņģis was most praised for his shooting range and various small forward skills.

The Timberwolves' front office didn't dare to bet on this guy, which undoubtedly made the Timberwolves' 2017 pick that the Lakers had previously acquired even more valuable.

Okay!

In this life, Porziņģis still couldn't escape his destiny of playing in New York.

With the seventh overall pick, after the Knicks traded up, Porziņģis was selected by the New York Knicks.

The Cavaliers and Rockets, who held the fifth and sixth overall picks, also didn't dare to bet on Porziņģis.

This had nothing to do with them not seeing Porzingis' talent.

It was purely because in recent years, the NBA had been heartbroken by various Dirk Nowitzki successors!

Then, with the eighth overall pick, the Phoenix Suns used the pick they got from the Spurs to select Devin Booker.

I wonder if it was because in this life, Kobe's draft pick became the eighth overall pick...

Anyway, later on, many of the league's Kobe successors were selected in this spot.

Before the draft, the Suns had already taken a liking to Booker.

Because Booker showed a solid foundation during his workouts, the Suns' management, eager to rebuild, felt that as long as Booker was given a certain amount of playing time, he could at least be developed as a second or third option.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that with the fifteenth overall pick, the Celtics also traded up to select Kelly Oubre, who had explosive athleticism.

After this year's Finals, the Celtics knew that as long as Su Feng was still in the league, they would have to continue to strengthen their forward position.

Next, after the Lakers selected Kevon Looney with the twenty-ninth overall pick...

It was now the Warriors' front office that wanted to curse!

No cap.

If it weren't for Jerry West, who was about to return to the Lakers' front office this summer, having a good reputation in the industry...

The Warriors' front office really suspected that the Logo Man had secretly revealed the Warriors' draft plans for this summer to the Lakers.

No way.

Without Looney, the Warriors had to use their backup plan with the thirtieth overall pick, selecting Montrezl Harrell, who also had the title of a demi-human.

"Su, the Warriors cut off our second-round target.

Do we still need to trade for a second-round pick now?" At the draft, while the Warriors' front office was still annoyed that the Lakers had cut off Looney, they would never have imagined...

That the Lakers were also troubled because they had cut off Harrell.

Originally, according to Su Feng's plan, the Lakers' two targets in this year's draft were Looney and Harrell.

The former was a model among blue-collar role players in the industry.

Not only was he cheap, but he was also always the most hardworking one on the court.

As for the latter...

After developing, he could contribute to the Lakers' future blood transfusion.

"No need, just sell our second-round pick!

There aren't any good rookies in the second round this year." On the phone, Su Feng said to Kupchak across the ocean.

Hearing this, Kupchak didn't hesitate any longer.

He directly took the Lakers' forward operations team out for barbecue.

This summer, the Lakers' focus was not on the draft.

But on the two trades involving Marc Gasol and Danny Green.

On July 1, after the NBA free agency market officially opened, Jerry West officially announced his return to the Lakers' front office.

Although nominally, the Logo Man was only the Lakers' team consultant.

But people who knew West's relationship with Little Buss knew...

That the Logo Man was the real general manager of this Lakers team in the future.

Kupchak, who had long been accustomed to being hollowed out, was instead very happy to take his family on a trip to Europe.

Anyway, just let him know if there's any big trade.

He, Mitch Kupchak, was only responsible for winning while lying down!

Of course, because West was already an elderly man of 77 years old, Kupchak would still have to obediently return to work after a short vacation, as he only wanted to win while lying down.

In mid-July, the Lakers completed the trade for Marc Gasol with the Grizzlies.

Because this summer, after dealing with a batch of expiring contracts, the Grizzlies had enough salary cap space to take on Gasol's contract, and Gasol himself was very satisfied with the conditions proposed by the Grizzlies, who would build the team around him. Therefore, after the Lakers and Grizzlies quickly reached an agreement, the Grizzlies surprisingly robbed the Lakers of this All-Star center for their 2016 and 2018 first-round picks (unprotected).

In the streets, after this trade was announced, people marveled at the Lakers' and Grizzlies' incredible relationship while also questioning West and Kupchak.

Because Gasol was a genuine All-Star center at this time.

Why could the Grizzlies get him for two first-round picks?

So, you can always trust the Logo Man's vision.

Before this trade happened, the Logo Man asked Little Buss and Kupchak, "Has Marc already decided to leave?"

Little Buss and Kupchak nodded in affirmation.

"I've studied the Grizzlies' current roster.

Most of their key players are between 29 and 34 years old.

Do you know what that means?" West continued to ask.

Without the Logo Man continuing, Kupchak had already figured it out.

First of all, since Gasol had already decided to leave, and the Lakers had previously agreed to let him go.

Then for the Lakers, they had to take a longer-term view when trading Gasol.

Indeed.

Gasol could bring back some better immediate combat power for the Lakers.

But was that important?

Before returning to the Lakers, West had studied the current Lakers' roster.

Inside, both Adams and Jokic needed a lot of playing time to continue growing.

Therefore, the proposal to use Gasol to exchange for immediate combat power on the inside was rejected by West and Kupchak from the very beginning.

In short, as long as Jokic and Adams could grow up quickly, plus Looney...

What more could the Lakers' inside need in the next five years?

As for immediate combat power on the outside...

If you don't understand, just ask...

Did the Lakers really plan to have Rondo sit on the bench next season?

"I still don't understand...

Why is the Grizzlies' player age structure the key to our agreement to this trade?" In the Lakers' general manager's office, Little Buss asked after scratching his head.

Hearing this, Kupchak smiled and said, "Because it means that the Grizzlies will start a rebuilding mode in the near future."

In Su Feng's previous life, it was the Grizzlies team that also had Randolph, Gasol, and Conley that made the determination to start rebuilding in the 2017/2018 season.

Although after trading the 2018 first-round pick to the Lakers, the Grizzlies' rebuilding plan would have a certain probability of being disrupted...

But as the Lakers' absolute ally in this league...

West was not worried about the Grizzlies at all.

Because in the NBA world, there is never only fighting.

Today, the Lakers generously sent Gasol to the Grizzlies almost in a freebie way.

Then in the future, when the big brother needs the little brother to transfuse blood...

How could the Grizzlies refuse?

In Su Feng's previous life, don't look at the fact that because of Jenny's aunt, the relationship between the Grizzlies and Lakers management had faded a lot.

But during Little Buss's tenure...

The relationship between the Grizzlies and Lakers teams, if not like glue, was at least like paint.

Maybe in the eyes of others, there is only business and no friendship in the NBA.

But don't forget...

Since the Lakers can give the Grizzlies a Gasol for free today.

Then in the future, when the Grizzlies need it...

With West as the bridge.

The Lakers can also send some of the players they don't need to Memphis.

West knew very well that the Grizzlies' corporate culture was not in conflict with the Lakers.

Because when they moved from Vancouver to Memphis, the entire Grizzlies team felt the love of the Memphis locals for them...

Even in order to allow the Grizzlies to settle in Memphis, nearly half of the citizens of Memphis sprayed the Grizzlies' logo on their cars and houses...

Therefore, for the Grizzlies management, their core statement is not the same as other teams.

In simple terms...

Whether the Grizzlies can win a championship is one thing.

But in any case, they will try everything possible to shorten the team's rebuilding period.

Because only in this way can they allow those fans who bought Grizzlies season tickets to watch a few more games for free every year. (Season tickets for each NBA team include playoff tickets)

So, even if they traded the team's 2018 first-round pick to the Lakers.

West was not worried that the Grizzlies would not choose to rebuild because of this.

Because the Grizzlies' rebuilding model has never relied on lottery and scratch cards.

In Su Feng's previous life, after he traveled back in time...

The first-generation pride Morant even encountered the embarrassing situation where the Grizzlies could continue to win without him.

Therefore, ordinary people are destined to not be able to understand the Logo Man's operation.

Otherwise, when the Logo Man's miraculous operations were gradually verified in the future...

How could people suspect that he was a time traveler?

In mid-July, after saying goodbye to Gasol, the star center whose jersey would definitely hang from the Staples Center's dome in the future, at the end of the month, after realizing through personal connections that the Bucks wanted to strengthen this summer, West and Kupchak joined forces again.

After sending Danny Green and the Lakers' own 2016 first-round pick to Milwaukee, the Lakers exchanged for the Bucks' 2016 first-round pick (unprotected) and 2018 second-round pick.

This was also a trade that ordinary people couldn't understand.

Because the Lakers' first-round pick was not valuable...

But after the Bucks selected Towns...

Was the Bucks' 2016 first-round pick very valuable?

"I'm not optimistic that the Bucks can quickly complete their reconstruction next season.

Even if they already have Karl-Anthony Towns and Jabari Parker." In the Lakers' general manager's office, West patiently explained to Little Buss.

Perhaps, in the eyes of outsiders, after Jabari Parker had completed his level-up in his rookie season and joined Towns and the Bucks, who were recruiting troops in the free agent market, the future was promising...

But in West's view, this was a fantasy.

There was no other reason.

Looking at the Eastern Conference pattern in this life...

In West's view, how could the Bucks shake the dominance of those Eastern Conference powerhouses in the short term?

Moreover, after learning through personal relationships that Towns was not the kind of ambitious player, West believed even more that the Bucks would definitely encounter a Waterloo in the new season.

In addition, after knowing that Green left the Lakers because he wanted to put up better-looking stats in his contract year...

West was completely relieved about this trade.

"In the Lakers, Danny is the best championship cornerstone.

But in Milwaukee...

Based on my understanding of Milwaukee's corporate culture...

In the new season, the Bucks' young players will definitely fight on their own."

In Su Feng's previous life, many people didn't understand why you might earn, but the Logo Man would never lose.

In fact, the reason was very simple...

In short...

He, Jerry West, not only understood the ball better than other general managers.

Moreover, as someone who had been there, he also understood the development rules of a team better, as well as the corporate culture of each NBA team.

At present, the Lakers do not need to make major repairs to the team's lineup.

Instead, in the Logo Man's view, what the Lakers need is to hold more high-quality draft picks as much as possible before Su Ke retires.

Because no matter how the new president Marc suppresses the Lakers in the future, or even manipulates the draft lottery...

He cannot prevent the Lakers from using the team's existing high-quality chips to cooperate with high-quality draft picks to exchange for a bright future within reasonable rules.

Maybe, because of the Lakers' relationship...

These draft picks held by the Lakers will change from the top four picks to the fifth and sixth picks.

But, with the fifth and sixth picks...

After a reasonable operation, who said the Lakers can't turn these fifth and sixth picks into the top three picks?

To be fair.

Compared to the two trades involving Gasol and Green.

In Su Feng's view, West's return this summer was the Lakers' strongest signing.



In August, Su Feng returned to Los Angeles from China.

After the holiday, Su Feng also needed to prepare for the new season.

After all, he was no longer young at the age of 37.

This summer, in addition to the Lakers, other teams were also strengthening their rosters.

After Yao Ming's retirement, the Warriors first gave "Tyson Chandler" a decent contract extension, and signed Robin Lopez from the free agent market with the mid-level exception.

In addition, Beverly, who had been abused by you thousands of times, still treated you like his first love, joined the Warriors under Curry's persuasion.

Last season in the Western Conference Finals, Curry was tormented enough by Bledsoe's limit-one-for-one.

So this summer, the Warriors have been wanting to find a substitute with excellent defense for Curry.

In the East, the Bulls exchanged Noah for Brook Lopez and signed Jamal Crawford in the free agent market.

The Hawks officially started rebuilding this summer.

Wade accepted Iverson's invitation and joined the New York Knicks after saying goodbye to Atlanta, where he had played for 12 years.

For a time, the Knicks became the most watched topic recently.

Because in the new season, with Anthony, Roy, and Wade, the Knicks undoubtedly became the favorites to compete for the championship in people's minds.

But in Su Feng's eyes...

This Knicks team was destined to be just a supporting role for others.

Because not to mention that Porzingis still needs time to level up...

Last season, after Wade chose to play consecutive games for the Hawks while taking injections...

How much strength can this Wade have next season?

However, after the Hawks chose to start rebuilding extremely decisively this summer...

This completely disrupted the Lakers' signing plans for the new season.

"Su, you know me.

I'm not calling you because I'm jealous of my brother's six championship rings.

It's just, with our friendship of so many years..."

This day, listening to Gasol's obvious hints on the phone...

Su Feng swore to his conscience.

He was definitely not tempted by Gasol's body, so he was moved by Gasol wanting to join the Lakers for the minimum salary.

Yes!

Jokic does need stable playing time to grow next season.

But doesn't Jokic need a famous teacher to guide him from the side?

Not to mention the complicated Princeton in the Lakers' offensive system.

That triangle offense, can Jokic master it casually?

In addition, after Garnett retires, without the experienced old wolf king, relying on Jokic, Adams, and Looney alone...

How can the Lakers ensure their absolute advantage on the inside in the new season?

Wake up!

The Lakers do need to be younger now.

But old players like Gasol who take the initiative to join for the minimum salary...

What reason do the Lakers have to refuse?

Moreover...

He, Su Feng, and Gasol have a very deep personal relationship?

Even if the Lakers' lineup in the new season is not considered...

Just out of brotherhood.

Could Su Feng, who has always been "righteous," refuse Gasol's initiative to join?

Besides...

After "tearfully" saying goodbye to Little Gasol and Green...

The Lakers' lineup in the new season has been severely cut.

Therefore...

Under the premise that the Lakers' goal in the new season is just to make the playoffs...

Can you say that Gasol is coming to hug his thighs for a championship ring?

Of course not!

Gasol came to the Lakers to provide technical assistance, to save this crumbling dynasty!

It is to save the world from its downfall and support the building from its collapse!

And so it was.

One day in August, after Su Feng and Gasol recalled their past experiences...

The three-time runner-up, former All-Star inside player, officially joined the Lakers on a two-year veteran minimum salary contract.

And now, Little Gasol, who had just become the boss of the Grizzlies, was suddenly stunned!

Because not long after Gasol signed with the Lakers...

He received a text message from Gasol in the first instance.

"Marc, my dear brother.

Now is the time to let the world know who is the number one center in Spanish history!"

In this life.

If it weren't for Little Gasol showing off the championship rings on his hand in front of him every day, and the Eagles deciding to officially start rebuilding...

How could Gasol, who has always been extremely ambitious, have sold himself to Su Feng on the phone?

Life is not easy, Gasol sighed.

No way.

If reality allows it...

Who would choose to be Barkley?

And as Gasol joined the Lakers, in September of this year...

Kobe was also stabbed in the heart by Su Feng.

According to someone's statistics, in the 520 Su Ke duels in September, Kobe suffered an embarrassing 520-game losing streak.

This summer, Kobe, who had just turned 37, couldn't really beat Su Feng in a duel.

Because basketball...

Is not something you can do if you want to.

Under the erosion of time, even if "Black Mamba" knew how Su Feng would attack in the next second, his body couldn't keep up with his mind.

But...

This time, Su Feng was not happy at all about being able to wantonly ravage Kobe in the duels.

Because if Kobe can't surpass Jabbar in total points in history before retiring...

That also means that Su Feng can't complete the task arranged for him by the iron-playing system, "The first and second in history are us."

Although the task has no failure penalty.

But based on Su Feng's current research on the day of destiny, reversing the universe, and the [Death Seeking] badge...

This task is likely to determine whether the accident before he traveled back in time will happen again.

Don't look at the fact that Su Feng doesn't believe in ghosts and gods on weekdays.

But in this life...

Since even such a ridiculous thing as traveling back in time has happened...

If you say that Su Feng really doesn't believe in fate...

That is absolutely impossible.

Just like in the movie "Final Destination," Su Feng is really worried that even if he helps Kobe escape that disaster, it will happen elsewhere.

Therefore, no matter what...

Whether he can help Kobe cross the 4538-point mark in the next two seasons...

Is a top priority for Su Feng.

After all, without Kobe...you can't let Su Feng spend the rest of his life alone, right? (Britney:?)

So, looking at Kobe's visible decline...

Can he, Su Feng, not be anxious?

Therefore...

On the day the Lakers officially gathered for the new season...

What Kobe never expected happened.

"You mean, you want to help me compete for the scoring title in the new season?" Kobe looked at Su Feng in surprise and asked.

"Yes...don't you want to win another scoring title before you retire?

Besides, I'm tired of winning the scoring title all these years, it's time for me to win an assist title, right? I don't want to be sprayed as a ball hog all day long after I retire," Su Feng said to Kobe.

"But, you've seen my training situation this summer...

If I still compete for the scoring title now, what should the team's chemical reaction do?" Although Kobe was very interested in the suggestion made by Su Feng, reason told Kobe...

It's better for him to be the "Pennsylvania Magic" honestly now.

And now...

Su Feng can be said to have lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot.

Because Kobe will undergo such a transformation in this life...

Isn't it all because of him?

No cap.

If the person partnering with him at this moment was not Su Feng, Kobe would never remain so rational.

But, in order to win one or two more championships with Su Feng at the end of his career...

If you say that he, Kobe, can disregard the life and death of the team for this...

That would be absolutely underestimating him, Kobe.

For Kobe, Su Feng is still a different existence.

Even if the present is not considered...

Doesn't he, Kobe, worry that because he and Su Feng have an unpleasant relationship at the end of his career, he will have to spend the rest of his life alone? (Vanessa:?)

Therefore, Kobe felt that Su Feng's suggestion was very unrealistic.

After all, if he really wants to score the scoring title now...

Wouldn't he have to play an average of 20 shots per game like Iverson?

Fortunately.

Kobe will eventually escape Su Feng's clutches.

In October, when Su Feng stated at the Lakers' media open day that those experts and fans who thought Kobe was old would definitely be slapped in the face by Kobe with the scoring title in the new season...

Kobe, who was set up by Su Feng, was very naturally taken over by Su Feng.

After all...

Saying that Kobe is not interested in scoring...

Is as absurd as saying that a straight man who likes women is not interested in beautiful women.

Su Feng knew that based on Kobe's current state...

It would be a bit difficult to bet everything on his and Kobe's farewell tour.

Because 4538 points in two seasons is not much...

But it's not a small amount either.

In short...

Isn't it just playing iron more often in the game?

Play!

That's it!



In mid-October, before the start of the preseason, the Lakers officially announced the team's roster for the new season.

Center: Paul Gasol, Adams, Looney.

Power Forward: Su Feng, Jokic, Sacre.

Small Forward: Middleton, Diaw, Battier.

Shooting Guard: Kobe, Curry.

Point Guard: Rondo, Bledsoe, Dinwiddie.

Diaw and Battier, who were responsible for managing the water dispenser last season, both chose to stay on the team this summer.

After retiring, Garnett also joined the Lakers' coaching staff in the new season, becoming Lu's third assistant coach after Walton left the Lakers to coach the Bucks this summer.

In addition, Billups and Hill were also promoted to Lu's first and second assistant coaches, respectively.

In the preseason, with Su Ke absent, the Lakers handed over a record of 6 wins and 1 loss.

In the new season, Rondo has to worry.

Because after completely building up his confidence last year, Bledsoe's current state is like taking drugs.

Dinwiddie's progress in the summer was also quite rapid.

None of the Lakers' new players is easy to deal with.

In the preseason, Gasol, who originally thought that he was joining the Lakers to provide technical assistance, was immediately worried about his playing time in the new season.

Because looking at the state of Adams and Jokic...

Gasol couldn't understand how his stupid brother became the starting center on this Lakers team.

On the 29th, the 15/16 season of the NBA regular season officially kicked off.

The Lakers sat at home to face the Heat.

Before the game, Gasol was completely depressed watching the Lakers players take the stage to receive their championship rings.

Because of this person...

It's all about comparing.

Before in Atlanta, although he had never won a championship.

But Gasol was only sad for a while when Little Gasol sent him a text message to stimulate him.

But, at this moment...

Looking at Seth Curry, who even had three championship rings in his hand...

Can you say that Gasol is feeling good?

In the opening game, Su Feng, who had repeatedly stated in public before the season that he was old, easily scored 27 points, 10 rebounds, and 11 assists.

This season, Su Feng is only one step away from reaching 50,000 career regular season points.

On the other side, Kobe made 13 of 31 shots in the opening game, plus free throws and three-pointers, scoring a game-high 34 points for the Lakers.

As for Gasol, who was holding his breath and wanting to prove himself...

After the game, looking at his technical statistics of 10 points, 3 rebounds, and 6 assists...

Paul Gasol finally understood why his younger brother could be the starting center on this Lakers team.

In the end, the score of this game was 104 to 118.

The Heat failed to seize the opportunity of Kobe's crazy bricklaying on the court to win this opening game.

Because Lowry, who must soften his feet at critical moments, only handed over a performance of 2 of 15 shots in this game, offsetting the negative impact Kobe's crazy bricklaying on the court brought to the Lakers.

On the 31st, the Lakers' second game was against the Grizzlies.

The Gasol brothers met again on the court.

However, what was different from the past was that this season, Gasol became the starting center of the Lakers, while Little Gasol became the boss of the Grizzlies.

On the court, Little Gasol, who must be a high-quality product from the Lakers, made Gasol usher in a depressed moment again.

Under the tactical tilt of the Grizzlies, Little Gasol scored a total of 19 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists for the Grizzlies in the whole game.

As for Gasol?

Although the fans who watched the whole game...

All felt that Gasol had been suppressing Little Gasol throughout the game...

But after the game, the technical statistics of the Gasol brothers were exactly the opposite of the game process.

In the whole game, Gasol, who played for the Lakers for 24 minutes, scored a total of 8 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists.

Just looking at the technical statistics, Gasol was completely suppressed by Little Gasol.

"Is this the Paul who is known as the number one center in Spain?

Why doesn't he have a few rebounds after a game?" After the game, Little Gasol looked at his old brother with a disdainful look while holding his round belly.

Hearing this, Gasol was speechless for a while, and Little Gasol continued, "Even if you don't look at the rebounds, just look at the scores, brother, you didn't even get double digits tonight...

How did you dare to say that your offensive ability is far above mine before?"

Gasol: "......"

No way.

This season, it has become politically correct for the whole Lakers team to help Kobe score points.

Therefore, even if Gasol wanted to dance in the low post, he had to give the damned low post to Kobe in the game.

As for why Little Gasol was able to get 19 points under Gasol's defense?

That's even more helpless.

Because even if Gasol can prevent Little Gasol from getting a point when defending head-on...

Could he still fly back to defend Little Gasol, who is hiding high up and ambushing, after wiping Jokic's butt?

Difficult!

In the new season, after running in with his teammates for two weeks...

Gasol found that it was too difficult to be a center on this damn Lakers team!

But no matter how difficult it is, Gasol has to walk the path he chose while shedding tears.

Fortunately, in the new season, Gasol quickly found a comrade-in-arms in the Lakers team who was in a similar situation to him.

In November, after the Lakers started with a 10-game winning streak...

Rondo, who originally thought that he could steadily surpass Chris Paul after developing his three-point ability, only handed over a performance of averaging 5.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 5.4 assists in the Lakers' first 10 games in the new season.

To be fair.

Covering Rondo's name...

Just looking at the data, you would definitely think that this is the data handed over by an unknown point guard in the NBA.

Faced with Paul's ridicule, Rondo will naturally give a response.

So, at the end of November, in a game against the Clippers, Rondo, who played for the Lakers for 29 minutes in the whole game, handed over a score of 0 points, 1 rebound, and 3 assists.

Speaking realistically...

In the case of playing nearly 30 minutes for the Lakers in the whole game, even if he didn't get 1 point, Rondo wouldn't have only 1 rebound and 3 assists.

But unfortunately...

This season, after giving the ball to Kobe, someone's ball-hog level is far beyond the past.

Therefore, in addition to not being able to grab rebounds...

Even assists, Rondo can only give it to someone to earn the middle difference.

On the Internet, November ended.

When many Kobe haters were criticizing Kobe for averaging 15 brick shots in November, disregarding the life and death of the team in order to brush the scoring title to slap the black fans in the face...

Rondo just wanted to ask...

Don't the Maple haters have keyboards?

Indeed.

Kobe's almost crazy and unreasonable shots in November did affect the Lakers' offense to a certain extent.

But as a dynasty team...

Seriously, even if Kobe plays a few more iron shots...

His teammates can also wipe Kobe's butt through high-quality defense.

But what about someone Su?

On the surface, Su Feng's offensive choices this season are as reasonable as possible.

But his teammates are just short of being driven crazy by him.

Because I have seen tumors...

But I have never seen such a tumor!

After November, the Lakers led the entire league with a record of 16 wins and 2 losses.

Throughout November, Kobe was able to score an average of 30.5 points for the Lakers, making him the team's scoring leader.

And Su Feng seemed to be really "old"...

Because after November, he could only get an average of 27.5 points, plus 13.5 rebounds and 11.8 assists.

On the court, the Maple fans who were very distressed about Maple found that Su Feng not only reduced the number of his strong attacks in the game this season...

And even the number of dunks, after November, Su Feng only completed 2 dunks in the game.

As for Kobe's performance of "Lian Po is old, can he still eat?", most fans think that the Lakers are just taking care of his face, so they tolerate him bricklaying recklessly in the game.

In November, Kobe's average number of shots reached an astonishing 26.8 times.

Combining his playing time of about 30 minutes per game, basically when he is on the court, he is either on the way to play iron or has already returned the ball to the opposite side.

To be reasonable, Kobe can have such physical strength to mess around in the game.

After all, in NBA history, how many 37-year-old veterans can shoot once a minute like Kobe?

Of course, in the new season, the Lakers allow Kobe to use his eyes to defend during defense, which also saves Kobe's physical energy to mess around on the court to a certain extent.

How can the fans shed tears of emotion for me then?" Hearing this, looking at Kobe, Su Feng replied.

Gu Tuo

Kobe: "......"

Wow!

What a deep scheming you have, Maple Dog!

It means that in order
