【Chapter 985】 Many Expectations (Ask for Subscription!) )

Xiao Feng appeared at the scene of the Lakers' training day, and participated in the team's first public training session as the main point guard, which immediately caused an uproar in the whole world.

No matter from which point of view, Xiao Feng's move is unprecedented, so countless media and people are eager to know Xiao Feng's real basketball level and whether he is playing tickets or serious?

Especially Xiao Feng's fans, they expect their idols to perform at a very high level on the court, even if this idea is a luxury!

Judging from the videos and pictures circulating in the major media, Xiao Feng's ball control level is good, and the three-point shooting rate is quite high, but no one can judge whether the players who are opposite him have tried their best to defend?

Xiao Feng is 29 years old this year, is it too child's play to suddenly announce that he will join the NBA at this age?

Now everyone is looking forward to seeing more of Xiao Feng's performance on the court, so can we judge whether his joining the NBA is just a hype or a deliberate decision?

However, after the training camp, the Lakers began closed training, and the Staples Arena was no longer open to the media and fans, and it was difficult for the outside world to know the real situation of Xiao Feng's training. As for the players, coaches, and management of the Lakers, they are very jealous of their owner's performance on the court, and they never revealed anything in the interview, which made the whole incident confusing.

The players naturally know that the boss's ball skills and body are inhuman, but they are all strictly ordered not to reveal the slightest bit before the start of the regular season! Therefore, seeing all kinds of speculations and questions from the media and fans, the Lakers players can't jump out to explain, this feeling is so torturous!

For a while, the media, fans, and ordinary people were attracted by Xiao Feng's move, according to the data released by the Lakers management. Sales of team packages have increased by more than 20% compared to the previous two years. Although the Lakers have attracted much attention this year because of various large-scale recruitments, it is certain that the news of Xiao Feng's joining has stimulated the ball market to a certain extent.

Even, far away on the other side of the ocean, Huaxia Travel Group and Brilliant Travel Group jointly launched the slogan of "Go to Staples to watch Xiao Feng play ball" and opened a travel route of "Huaxia-Los Angeles-Dream Ranch". It has attracted a lot of Xiao Feng's fans.

In this case, the NBA league has also noticed increasing the publicity of the Lakers, as if the Lakers are a team at the level of the Cavaliers and Warriors.

In the past two years, because the Lakers have lost their competitiveness on the court, whether it is on TV or in official publicity, it has gradually been replaced by the Warriors, Clippers, and Cavaliers.

Judging from the schedule released by the league at the end of August, the Lakers are no longer the first choice for the opening game, and the first choice for the East and West has become the Cavaliers and Warriors who reached the Finals last season. As for the all-important Christmas war, if it weren't for the Clippers. The Lakers may not be able to get the opportunity to broadcast globally, and the decline can be seen.

However, because of Xiao Feng's joining the NBA, the league suddenly felt that this was a very important highlight, and the Lakers showed different changes in the number of broadcast games and publicity frequency.

At the end of September, Xiao Feng was on the list of teams reported by the Lakers to the NBA league, and there were specific numbers of Xiao Feng's participation in the physical test. It also means that Xiao Feng's appearance in the NBA will become a reality.

Judging from the data of the body test, the net height of Xiao Feng 185 is not too short. After all, his position on the court is a point guard, and his arm span, bench press, bounce and other statistics are not much different from the first-line point guards in the league.

Therefore, many experts analyzed Xiao Feng's body side data and believed that if the report was true, Xiao Feng's body was not a loss in the NBA, and the only thing that made everyone doubt was whether his ball skills could adapt to the fierce competition in the NBA. After all. Before this, people had never heard of Xiao Feng receiving professional basketball training, could he be a monk halfway?

With all kinds of questions, whether it is the NBA league, the media and fans, they all set their eyes on the Lakers, wanting to see the Lakers team under the leadership of Xiao Feng, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?

However, it is a little regrettable to the outside world. In the preseason games that began after October, Xiao Feng did not play, he did not appear on the court most of the time, and even when he did, he was also a water cooler keeper.

Over time, everyone thought that Xiao Feng's joining the NBA was nothing more than hype, a way to attract the attention of the outside world, and a marketing ploy.

Not to mention, to the excitement of the media and fans, the Lakers' performance in the preseason is not bad, and it has even completely exceeded everyone's imagination.

First of all, Kobe Bryant seems to be back to his health, whether it's his trademark step-back jumper, hanging rod or flying dunk, he has the style of his prime. In 6 games in the preseason, Kobe Bryant played 40 minutes, averaged 30 points, 5 assists and 6 rebounds per game, and led the team to a 5-1 record!

Kobe's outstanding performance also made NBA teams exclaim, 'The wolf is coming', after all, Kobe, who is in peak condition, is still the best player in the entire league.

Over the past two seasons, Bryant has been plagued by injuries and has fallen to the lowest point of his career, both in terms of playing time and performance. And now Kobe's performance on the court has completely gotten rid of the haze, and the black mamba's style has reappeared on the court!

Another surprise for the Lakers was veteran Nash, who was 41 years old and originally planned to announce his retirement this summer, but he surprisingly retained the veteran base salary.

Judging from the performance in the preseason, it seems to be back to the peak of a decade ago, whether it is dribbling, scoring, assists, etc., there are no flaws.

Everyone is curious, what kind of power has rejuvenated the two veterans who entered the NBA in '96?

With the excellent performance of the backcourt two-gun, coupled with the introduction of Aldridge, Hibbert and Mark this year. Gasol's play, the Lakers became the favorites to win the championship almost overnight!

In addition, the performance of Towns, the top pick selected by the Lakers this year, is also decent, although he cannot become a super center with the dominance of the restricted area, but it is more than enough to serve as a backup for Mark.

In addition, role players including Randle and Kelly are not doing badly. The Lakers, who were originally still in turmoil, have been reborn after this summer's efforts and have become a strong contender for the championship.

Of course, in the latest edition of the NBA team power rankings, experts are still quite cautious to put the Lakers in the 8th place, after all, this Lakers team is full of uncertainties.

Like what. Will Kobe Bryant and Nash be physically fit enough to last the whole season?

The preseason is just an appetizer, so the 'quality' of the Lakers' outstanding performance remains to be tested, and whether the rebuilt Lakers team can adapt to the fierce competition of the regular season and even the playoffs?

No one would have expected that the Lakers, who only had 21 wins last season, would aim for a championship in the new season!

…………

No matter how disturbed the outside world was, the Lakers were not affected in any way, their preparations were carried out in an orderly manner, and the whole team was twisted into a rope!

Because the team belongs to the rebuild, plus the owner is in the dressing room. The team is naturally united, and this can be seen from the fact that after the training camp, every player quickly entered the state of readiness.

In the team's training, the tacit understanding of the three core players of Xiao Feng, Kobe Bryant, and Gasol has gradually formed, and the operation of the main lineup is quite smooth, and the offense is mercury. As for the bench lineup, it has also made great progress under the stimulation of the main lineup, which can ensure that the team will not collapse in the second quarter!

October 22nd. The Lakers submitted a 13-man roster to the NBA for the 2015-2016 season, and Xiao Feng was among them. It was also the result that finally led to many suspicions in the outside world.

In the list, Xiao Feng, Kobe, Nash, Gasol, Jeremy Lin, Aldridge, Hibbert, Downs, Randle, Ci Shiping, Kelly, Anthony. Brown, Jordan. Clarkson and 13 other players have become all the candidates for the Lakers to play in the new season.

When the list was released, media reporters, sports experts and fans were analyzing the various personnel combinations, and almost everyone thought that Xiao Feng was just the team's mascot and occupied one of the places.

But even putting Xiao Feng aside, the current Lakers staffing is quite luxurious. Whether it is the backcourt or the interior, they have considerable strength, once Kobe and Nash are healthy, presumably the Lakers will become a strong contender for the playoffs and even the championship!

However, no one thought of it. Xiao Feng, who seems to be the team's mascot, is actually the real killer of the Lakers!

Some people used to say that being a point guard next to Kobe Bryant was a thankless task, which to some extent showed that Kobe's desire to win and control was too strong.

But the owner himself is the point guard, Kobe Bryant naturally does not occupy too much of the ball, but can play a more efficient game, which is also the difference between the 40-year-old Kobe and the 30-year-old.

How lethal a healthy Kobe Bryant who doesn't need to be distracted to organize the game can only be seen in the game!

…………

The NBA regular season will be played on the 28th of 2015, and the opening game has little to do with the Lakers, and the Lakers' first game will be played on the evening of the 29th, at home against the Kings!

Since the 25th, the local media in Los Angeles have begun to promote the game, and the sports channel in Huaxia has also previewed the game as a key game.

In the heyday of the Lakers' 'KO' era and the peak of Kobe Bryant a few years ago, the Lakers have always been the team with the most broadcasts on Huaxia TV, second only to the Rockets who joined Yao Ming that year. Therefore, the Lakers have a large number of fans in China, especially Kobe Bryant's fans, which are even more difficult to count.

It is reported that Kobe Bryant will end his 20-year NBA career at the end of the season and retire with five championship rings.

This news undoubtedly stimulated many Kobe fans, and everyone realized that Kobe Bryant's NBA game was one less game, so the enthusiasm for watching was particularly high.

What's more, Xiao Feng has tens of millions of fans in Huaxia, and everyone wants to see if Xiao Feng will really play?

Because of age, most people will not treat Xiao Feng and those middle-aged and elderly people with big bellies, Xiao Feng, who was born in 86, is still a young man.

Even if Xiao Feng doesn't play, just because 'Xiao Feng is the owner of the Lakers', many of his fans will pay attention to the Lakers' game, love the house and Wuma.

Stimulated by a variety of factors, the sports channel chose to broadcast the first game of the new season of the Lakers live, and produced a sophisticated promotional video for rolling broadcast!

…………

When the media paid all-round attention to the first game of the Lakers' new season, Xiao Feng ushered in a group of special guests, that is, Jiangnan Satellite TV's reality show "Running Man".

Deng Xiaochao, the captain of the running boy, has a good personal relationship with Xiao Feng, and the head of Jiangnan Satellite TV used to be Xu Xiangnan's secretary to the mayor of Jinshan City, so the program team proposed to come to Los Angeles to shoot the program, and Xiao Feng naturally took over the reception task without shirking his responsibility.

Because the program itself has the assistance of the sponsor, there is no need for Xiao Feng to arrange a convoy to greet him when he gets off the plane, and the BMW convoy will take all the members of the program team to the hotel where they stay.

The show will be recorded from tomorrow, so tonight Xiao Feng specially set up a banquet at the 'Dream Restaurant' to entertain the running boy team, guests and all the main creators and staff.

A film crew of more than 100 people is not a burden for Xiao Feng, and if only a few guests are invited, it would be too stingy.

For this reason, the 'Dream Restaurant' will be temporarily closed to the public tonight, and except for customers who have made reservations, temporary customers can only be sorry.

This time, the theme of "Running Man" is 'husband and wife', for which Deng Xiaochao's wife Sun Li came, baby's groom Huang Xiaoming came, Big Black Bull's girlfriend Fan Binbin came, Wang Zulan's long-legged daughter-in-law Li Yanan also came, and the remaining Zheng Kai, Chen Chichi and Little Roe Deer, who are still single, were also matched with female partners by the program team, which can be described as a neat lineup.

As the masters, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao greeted everyone at the gate of the manor, which immediately flattered the entire running men's team.

Actually, everyone is not a polite stranger, everyone just met at the wedding of Xiao Ming and baby half a month ago, and they are quite familiar with each other.

After all, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao are not ordinary people, and being able to greet them at the gate of the manor is undoubtedly a great respect for the program team, not to mention, Xiao Feng also contributed the 'Ping An' as a playground for tomorrow!

In the evening, the 'Dream Restaurant' entertained the compatriots from afar with the best food and wine, and a variety of unique delicacies also made everyone eat quite happily.

Especially Chen Chichi, the number one foodie, even smiled when he ate, claiming that this was the best meal he had ever eaten!

In this dinner, everyone ate to the delight of the guests and hosts, and tomorrow everyone will start the recording of the 'Los Angeles Special'! (To be continued.) )

PS: PS: I will receive 28 monthly passes today, so thank you folks! In the new week, continue to ask everyone for monthly passes and recommended tickets!
