The Lakers made it clear after the two made their declarations that they preferred Kobe Bryant to stay.

Because whether it is from the perspective of game attitude or the interests of the team, the young Kobe Bryant is obviously more suitable to be the core of the Lakers' rebuild, and it is also more suitable for the Hollywood environment.

Of course, there is another reason that compared to O'Neal, Kobe Bryant is obviously more favored by David Stern.

After O'Neal traveled east to Miami and the Lakers successfully renewed Kobe's contract, the Lakers announced another blockbuster news. Coach Sanders, the former head coach of the Minnesota Timberwolves, will officially take over the Lakers' coaching.

In fact, this news is not very surprising to the public.

Because after the conflict between Kobe Bryant and Phil Jackson broke out during the Finals, Phil Jackson wanted to leave. Although in the end, Phil persevered until the end of the finals under the persuasion of his girlfriend Jeanie Buss, but after the game, despite Jenny's pleading, he insisted on holding a press conference - resignation!

And soon after, Phil Jackson found his next home - the Minnesota Timberwolves!

This caught the Lakers management a little off guard and had to cramble and start looking for a suitable coach in the league. I don't know what the purpose is, the Lakers actually fell in love with the former coach of the Timberwolves Saunders at the first time.

At that time, in the eyes of the media, the cooperation between the two sides has almost become inevitable, and now with the completion of O'Neal's deal, Sanders' entry into the Lakers also seems logical.

Lakers fans are furious that O'Neal was traded.

At this time, Peter Pan Kobe Bryant is obviously not as important as O'Neal in the minds of fans. Especially after the Kobe Bryant Eagle County incident happened as scheduled last season, his image plummeted.

Angry fans began to gather outside the Staples Center arena to protest, and some radical fans even began burning Kobe Bryant's jersey to vent their anger.

And Kobe Bryant was silent about it. People like him don't bother to explain anything or make promises, and he only uses practical actions to prove that without O'Neal by his side, he is still the omnipotent Kobe Bryant.

While there was a fan riot in Los Angeles over O'Neal's crossing, sunny Miami was making final preparations to welcome the arrival of the big sharks.

After Riley ousted the team's hero, Miami fans couldn't let go for a long time. But now, the team once again has a dominant interior player, and a revival is just around the corner.

When O'Neal appeared in front of the eyes of Heat fans, it immediately caused a sensation. The big shark who is good at showing off is dressed in a colorful hip-hop look, holding a large water gun in his hand, and is a burst of spray at the welcoming crowd.

Chris Bosh, as a welcome representative, was naturally not immune. However, he didn't mind, and instead gave the big shark a big hug.

At this time, Bosh's heart was about to burst with excitement, and with the support of the big shark, he no longer had to rush to the inside line to fight with those muscle sticks.

O'Neill also seemed very friendly, and took the initiative to throw an olive branch to Bosh when he was interviewed by reporters on the spot.

"It was an unexpected surprise for me to be here! I love everything about the city. Now I'm going to start my new challenge in this city. ”

'Chris is a good player and his achievements last season speak for themselves. In my opinion, he should be the best rookie of the year. ”

"I know very well that the Miami Heat are Bosh's team, and I came here to help him with my experience and quality and win championships for the city. ”

Just when everyone at the scene was cheering for O'Neill's wonderful speech, a reporter threw out a rather sharp question.

"Do you think Lamar's Knicks will be the biggest obstacle to your championship? You know, even if the Los Angeles Lakers are as strong as last season, they are no match for the Knicks!"

O'Neill deserves to be an old man, did not show a trace of panic, and smiled at the reporter: "Although Lamar has good strength, in my eyes, Lamar is just a willful child who has been spoiled by the head coach." ”

"You know, when he was with the Lakers, he was still the little brother who carried my bag. Although the Knicks are strong, they have also lost a lot of strong players after the Finals, and we will grind his bones out in the new season to let people know that the Knicks are not invincible. ”

Every word O'Neill said quickly reached Lamar's ears in Europe via satellite signals.

Lamar just sneered after reading the news, turned off the TV, changed into a swimsuit, and went to sunbathe with Vanessa.

The transformation of Junzijian into a werewolf, O'Neal's journey to the east, and the exchange of owners between Phil Jackson and Sanders have caused a little shock in this alliance, and such shocks are still staged from time to time in the following days, making people feel overwhelmed.

Player transfers are always the highlight of the NBA offseason, and those who are still on vacation as stars don't know when they will be notified by their agents to change clubs.

Of course, this is also something that cannot be helped, although it is the players who play on the court, and it is these players who are cheered and adored by the fans, but in the end, the NBA is just a game for the rich, and these players are at best chips in their hands.

Last season's championship team has been in the news since the NBA entered the offseason, although Lamar was the biggest contributor to last season's championship, but the outstanding performance of many young talents in the Knicks team is also an important part of the Knicks' championship.

When the transfer curtain opened, these young talents were naturally sought after by many teams eager to improve their strength.

At this time, the transfer period stipulated by the league has not yet begun, but the private actions of the teams have already begun.

When Lamar ended his vacation plan and hurried back to New York, he found that every one of his teammates had become the object of pursuit.

The only one who didn't have a scandal was Lamar himself. Not to mention that the huge contract of up to $1.2 billion that he is about to start after the start of the new season is the good environment that the Knicks have created for him, and Lamar cannot easily give up.

Lamar can't dig it, and the other players are different.

After winning the championship, what the players will chase next is naturally money and status. No one is really willing to be a little brother behind others, and there is no one who does not desire power, does not desire to have a team of their own.

And this has become the biggest reliance for many teams to poach their feet.

Van Gundy felt like all the hair he had left was going to fall out during this time, and the team finally won the championship, and if the roster can be stable, it is not impossible for this Knicks team to dominate an era.

After all, the core lineup of this team, the eldest Antonio Davis, is only 31 years old. Lamar is also not very old, only 25 years old, and they will remain in their prime for at least five to seven years.

It can be said that as long as the Knicks team is generally not broken, there will never be anyone in the league who is their opponent today, but if there is a fluctuation, then the outcome will become unpredictable.

After receiving Van Gundy's urging phone call and returning to New York in a hurry, the first thing Lamar did was to report to Van Gundy.

When Lamar arrived in Maddison, Van Gundy was directing the new rookie through a simple shooting drill.

"Hey, guys! Sorry, I'm late!"

Lamar walked into the Madison Garden arena and saw the entire Knicks training under Van Gundy. He hadn't paid attention to which newcomers the Knicks had joined this year, but now that he looks at it, it's really amazing.

Center: Samuel Dampotter, Chris Anderson, Al Jefferson (rookie)

Power forwards: Lamar Odom, Nechilario, Antonio Davis (to be traded)

Small forwards: Shaun Battier (with one year left on contract), Grant Hill, Bobby Simmons (free agent)

Shooting guards: Dwyane Wade, John Salmons, Gilbert Arenas (free agent)

Point guards: Chauncy Billups (one year remaining on contract), Jamal Nelson (rookie)

Compared to last season, although Barbosa has gone to Charlotte Bobcats, Davis has submitted a trade request, and Arenas and Simmons have also jumped out of the player option to become restricted free agents, destined to be signed by other teams under big contracts. But the Knicks' current lineup is still not inferior, and it has improved slightly overall.

Of course, the Knicks will not sit on the throne, and when someone leaves, there will be new blood joining.

Van Gundy had already received a call from Lamar before Lamar returned. But when he saw Lamar, he couldn't help but be furious.

For a while, Van Gundy didn't care that the Knicks were opening up to the outside world, not to mention that there were many media reporters present, and before Lamar really walked into the arena, he took a deep breath, and roared with a hideous face: "Bastard!

Van Gundy's anger startled everyone present, and some felt the floor tremble beneath their feet.

Will the commander be at odds?

Will Lamar part ways with the manager after winning the title?

Is there a lot of internal contradictions in the new season of the Knicks?

A struggle for power?

Some imaginative journalists immediately thought of these possibilities, and people were excited to see a good show. In their minds, Van Gundy and Lamar are extremely tough people, and there is no such thing as admitting defeat and giving in in the dictionary of their lives.

Today, either Lamar will force the palace and completely turn Van Gundy into a puppet of the Knicks, or Van Gundy will win a big victory and officially bring Lamar under his command from now on. ()
