Chapter 312: Persistence

Phil Jackson smiled bitterly: "Lamar, don't be too persistent, Chris's matter is irreparable! The league's punishment has come down, and we can't change anything even if we intercede for him." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info Of course, Lamar you don't have to worry about the quality of the team, I think we can find a player to replace Chris!"

Seeing that the time seemed to be almost up, Bass Jr. added smartly: "In addition, if his suspension period is over, we are still willing to give him another chance." Lamar, as long as you can stay in the team, it's not a problem. Do you understand?"

Lamar sneered and said, "Sure enough, it's the face of a businessman, I think I've understood."

When Lamar saw Anderson again, it was three days later. Anderson was noticeably in a much better state of mind, and when Lamar saw him, he was playing on a basketball court in the block. Maybe it was too early, he was the only one here, and Anderson, who had no opponent, could only vent his excess energy on the completely unguarded basket.

Anderson saw Lamar, and he knew it when Lamar showed up on the edge of the basketball court. But he didn't say anything, he still bombarded the basket vigorously. He looked excited, almost morbidly excited, only when his hands were off the basket and his feet were back on the concrete floor. There is a hint of loss in his eyes.

He loves basketball, and no one can question his love for basketball. Just like when he came to contact basketball earlier, he went to China to look for opportunities without hesitation, and came to the Lakers without hesitation in order to get close to the door of the NBA. Now he succeeded, only to be ruined by himself.

"You look like you're angry?" Lamar walked over and stood behind the basketball hoop, looking at Anderson who was venting.

Anderson was stunned for a moment, stopped what he was doing, and said with a wry smile: "Angry? Of course, I think I should be angry! I feel like I have done a lot for the team and I don't deserve to be treated like this!"

Lamar had a look of disappointment on his face, "Do you really think that?" Dr. Bass may be a bastard, but he is right about one thing. If you make a mistake, you deserve to be punished, even if the punishment is very impersonal. ”

"That's their final decision!, right?" said Anderson, with a look of disappointment in his eyes.

Originally, he still had certain expectations for Lamar to intercede, how to say that although Lamar's status in the team is not as good as Shaq, he is the core player of the team's organization, and if he intercedes, the team should be open. At the very least, he will go to the alliance to help plead for mercy, so that the punishment for him can be slightly lighter.

"Chris, I'm sorry!"

"You don't need to apologize!" After learning about his future fate, Anderson suddenly felt very relaxed, and the big stone hanging in his heart also fell to the ground, anyway, this is the worst now! As for the rest, Anderson doesn't want to think about it yet.

"It's not easy to find you!"

At this moment, a voice came, and Lamar followed the sound and saw that the person who came was Shaq.

Lamar has a lot of opinions about Shaq's behavior of not doing anything after Anderson's accident, and he didn't say hello when Shaq came over.

Anderson was pleased, and smiled and said, "Fatty, I'm glad you can still come to see me!"

"What's so strange about me that you didn't commit some heinous crime, and how many people who came out of the slums like us and got the money and didn't touch that thing? You should know that it will ruin you. ”

"Now I know! It did ruin me, but it was obviously too late to know now, I had been banished from the Alliance. ”

Anderson seemed to want to say this in a very relaxed tone, but unfortunately, Lamar and Shaq sounded unusually bitter.

"Doesn't it seem too early to give up now?" Shaq asked, staring into Anderson's eyes, "You're only twenty-three years old now, and in two years you still have a lot of youth to return to this league and prove your abilities again, the Chris Anderson I know is not such a decadent person as he is now!"

"But what can I do now?" Anderson said with a sad face, "I don't even have a place to play, and even if I go abroad again to look for opportunities, in two years, I may not be able to keep up with the pace of this league." ”

"I'm here, what are you afraid of?" Lamar said suddenly.

At this moment, Lamar's face was full of determination, all the hesitations he had once were gone, and he had made up his mind in his heart.

Old Bass is right, the NBA is a business field, and all the players are just bargaining chips.

When you're useful, everyone will revolve around your chips and offer you the best treatment, the best conditions. But once you are old, injured, and unable to keep up with the rhythm, no one will remember the old feelings and lend you a helping hand.

It's all on your own!

Although being treated as a commodity made Lamar feel very angry, but this is also something that cannot be helped, with his current energy, he can't change the rules of the game that have been pursued for more than half a century.

But since it's a commodity, it still seems to be a relatively in-demand commodity. Of course, Lamar wants to sell his product for a good price, and it is obvious that the treatment that the Lakers can give him is not a good word at all. This is not what I want!

As soon as Lamar said this, Shaq immediately understood what he meant, but this time he didn't say anything. Although he felt a deep disappointment in his heart, he knew that it would be difficult to change what Lamar had made up his mind.

Besides, there is the excitement of Anderson's incident, or after Anderson's accident, the team can be a little more humane, and things will not be where they are now.

Even if the Lakers' management is doing something to make amends in order to appease Lamar, it will no longer help.

Now Lamar has seen through the NBA, a league that is full of copper stench everywhere, and since everyone can sacrifice something for money, fame, and so-called influence, Lamar will never go along with them.

"Lamar, what did you say?"

Anderson looked at Lamar hesitantly, he had already guessed something, but he couldn't believe it.

Although he knew that Lamar had always treated him like a brother, it was still hard for him to believe that Lamar would turn against the team for him.

Lamar didn't answer Anderson, just looked at Shaq and said with a smile: "I think it's time for me to change the environment, Los Angeles is good, but the world here can only belong to you and Kobe Bryant at most, and the future here doesn't belong to me! I want my own territory, which belongs to me alone, so I'm sorry, maybe the next time we meet again, we'll already be enemies." ”

Shaq listened to Lamar's words, and behaved calmly: "I know that even if I force you to stay, you won't be happy in Los Angeles." It's fine to go out and explore a world that belongs to you, but be careful when you lead your team back to Los Angeles, the fans here won't show mercy to you just because you've been a hero here!"

"Their hero has always been you, and in their eyes I can only be regarded as the stormtrooper next to you as a hero. But when that day comes, I will never show mercy, and I will bury the Lakers with my own hands like I did for other opponents. ”

"I'll try it then, I'm looking forward to the feeling of competing with you on the court now, and see if you're really that tough!"

Now these two once close teammates, brothers, have begun to stir up provocations. But when they said that, they both laughed again.

They will be undying opponents on the pitch in the future, but they are still the best brothers off the pitch.

After the two of them laughed, Shaq said to Anderson: "Chris, I should have said sorry to you, what Lamar did for you, I can't do it! I went to the team to intercede for you, but they refused, they said that keeping you in the team will affect the team's reputation and image." ”

After saying that, even he himself laughed: "Hell, I don't even know when we had any things." All I know is that we're the most hated and hated bunch of guys in the league. We wantonly trample on the dignity of our opponents and make them weep at our feet. We are brave enough to challenge those who are on top of us and let everyone know that we are the real fighters. This is our basketball! Lamar, no matter where you go, don't let me see you playing that kind of pleasing basketball, in that case, I won't recognize you as a brother. ”

Lamar smiled confidently, "Big guy, when have you ever seen me please anyone? I play basketball because I like it, not for anyone." ”

"That's good!" Shaq said to Anderson again, "Chris, follow Lamar, you can't be a super interior like Garnett, Tim and me, but remember, you have your own strengths, be a person who stands by Lamar's side and makes all opponents hate." ”

Anderson was a little confused by Shaq's words: "I really wanted to be that guy, but I've been expelled from the league now. ”

Shaq laughed, "Fool, isn't it only two years?"

"yes, it's only two years!" Lamar laughed.

While the three of them were talking, someone had already come to this basketball court.
