Chapter 168: Origin
"Zhao Wei, but you're not feeling well?" Lucy squinted and glanced at Zhao Wei with a smug glance and said with concern. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Ugh!" Zhao Wei was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, it's just thirsty, and my throat is a little itchy!" ”
"Hello, I'm your new strength and conditioning coach, my name is Lucy." Lucy knew that the trickle of water was long, and she didn't intend to embarrass Zhao Wei in front of so many people, so she said, "Since you want to try it, then which of you will come first?" ”
"I'll come first."
"Me."
"Me."
……
As soon as they saw that it was a beauty, several people didn't have time to introduce themselves and began to scramble, and even Nick Young, who had just had a girlfriend, was scrambling to squeeze forward.
Zhao Wei pouted for a while, and reached out to drag Nick Yang over.
"Hey, you have a girlfriend, what are you doing with in the past?"
"Then you don't have a girlfriend, why don't you go over and make do?" Nick Young raised his head and asked rhetorically.
Zhao Wei was speechless, and then replied: "Who said I didn't, didn't Kylie Jenner announce it in public?" ”
"Cut, a woman from the Kardashians? I'm stupid to believe you. "Nick Young has a stupid look on his face.
Zhao Wei was speechless: "Hey, I asked you first!" ”
"What is it called in your words, yes, my fair lady, good gentleman." Nick Young also pulled up the words.
"Uh, how do you know they're ladies?" Zhao Wei added another sentence unwillingly.
"Hey, Zhao Wei, you don't usually talk so much. Why are you talking about people behind your back? Nick Yang glanced at Zhao Wei dissatisfied.
"Uh, it's okay, willing to go, hurry up." Zhao Wei panicked and hurriedly pushed Nick Yang back.
Eventually, our Nick Young was honorably selected for the first attempt.
Zhao Wei secretly walked to the front of the machine and touched the button, and then our Nick Yang was tragic.
In fact, even if Zhao Wei doesn't touch the button, Nick Yang will be tragic, but it's not so miserable.
When Nick Young crawled back, there was no smooth skin on his body, and his eyes had turned into panda eyes.
"I'll go, Zhao Wei, you yin me. I don't believe you can dodge it at this speed. Nick Yang gritted his teeth and looked at Zhao Wei.
"Well, I'm tired now, I can't do it anymore, we still have a game next." Zhao Wei turned his head and left.
"Ah, unfair, why are we all guilty of sin! It's not fair, it's not fair. Nick Young's screams came from behind him.
As soon as the crowd left, Lucy naturally had suitors, and all the guys rushed to see Lucy off.
Although Zhao Wei did not leave, he did not step forward, and stood quietly to the side and watched.
Lucy didn't go to Zhao Wei and ended up choosing Clarkson's car.
With a proud smile on his face, Clarkson carried Lucy away.
Everyone dispersed.
Zhao Wei was about to leave when Luke Wharton walked over.
"Since there's no one left, then you can send me home."
"Don't you have a car of your own?" Zhao Wei looked at Luke Wharton speechlessly.
"Yes, but I didn't. How tiring it is to drive. Driving is a thing for you young people. Luke Wharton smiled slyly and slipped into the car.
"You're not old yourself." Zhao Wei reluctantly got into the car.
"The next game is against the Eagles, what do you think?" Luke Wharton asked relaxedly, lying comfortably in his seat.
"Aren't you in a hurry? Your team is currently in the bottom of the West, huh? Zhao Wei looked at him and looked confident, and wanted to choke him.
"I care." Luke Wharton nodded in agreement, but then changed his tune, "But, you know, what kind of league this league is, we're going to build a dynasty, not a game. Now that you're back, am I afraid you won't try to win? ”
"You just believe I can do it?" Zhao Wei looked at Luke Wharton curiously.
"Hey, don't look at me." Luke Wharton hurriedly patted Zhao Wei and said, "I believe in myself." ”
"I'm going to play in the next game." Zhao Wei didn't want to continue to delve into the problem just now with Luke Wharton, it was to find depression by himself.
"Nonsense, otherwise I'll really raise you for nothing." Luke Wharton gave Zhao Wei a blank look.
Zhao Wei was stunned.
"However, in the next game, there is one more important thing than you playing." Luke Wharton continued.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Wei asked suspiciously.
"You weren't there in the previous two games, but what they were holding back in their hearts was not resentment and unconvincing. If that breath can't be lifted, then even with you, the Lakers are in danger. Luke Wharton looked worried.
"Coach, don't worry, work hard, we will win the next game." Zhao Wei said solemnly.
"Well, let me see what kind of miracle you can do!" Luke Wharton narrowed his eyes in anticipation, as if he had seen what he had imagined.
It wasn't an easy game against the Eagles. Although the Hawks lost Teague and Al Horford in the offseason, they also got Howard, who had a bad time with the Rockets.
At the beginning of the season, they once occupied the top position in the East, but their recent record has been unfavorable, losing four of their five games, which is very embarrassing.
Head coach Mike Budenholzer is the head coach of the Spurs who came out of the Spurs to successfully build this team without superstars to where it is today, with balanced strength, team battles, and excellent defense.
The time for the break always passes quickly, and the game follows.
Staples' appearance has always been very grand, but because of the team's record, although it was grand, it was not boiling.
But this time it was different, and the fans didn't make a big fuss about the Lakers' two consecutive humiliating losses to the Warriors and stay away from the arena.
Instead, the entire arena was almost full today.
Zhao Wei's appearance also received cheers from the fans, but it was not too intense.
When the Eagles played, everything was different.
To be precise, when the on-site commentator read Dwight Howard, the audience suddenly erupted in shocking boos.
The sound that erupted at this time was louder than all the applause before.
For the league superman who had only been with the Lakers for a year in a hurry, the Lakers gave special treatment.
Perhaps the original pain came too suddenly and tragically.
This matter still has to be traced back to the original OK group split.
The split of the OK combination is naturally very familiar to everyone, we won't talk about what happened after O'Neal left, let's talk about the Lakers in the ruins after O'Neal left.
The Lakers in the ruins of the original can be described as an NBA superstar with a group of children who can't play.
It was also in those two years that Kobe Bryant turned on the super scorer mode, and cutting points was as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
It's not difficult for Kobe Bryant to score 30 points in a game, which is basically impossible. It was also in those two years that he completed 4 consecutive 50 games, and the fifth game also scored more than 40 points. The game against the Raptors left a mark on countless people, going off the court in the last 14 seconds of the fourth quarter and scoring 81 points in a single game. He won the scoring title with an average of 35 points per game.
That's why many people say that this season's Westbrook may become the Kobe Bryant of the year.
However, with this kind of desperate style of play, one person will be tired after all.
Kobe Bryant didn't want a score, he wanted the final trophy.
For two consecutive years, he was eliminated from the playoffs by the Suns, who were in full swing that year.
Kobe Bryant had no choice but to force the palace management, and eventually the league had a deal that was called a robbery by Popovich, and the Lakers acquired Pau Gasol from the Grizzlies.
Pau Gasol's arrival was immediate, and the Lakers reached the Finals that season, only to lose to the Celtics, a triumvirate of the Big Three.
However, in the next two years, the Lakers defeated the Magic and the Celtics to complete two consecutive championships.
The aging of the lineup has allowed the Lakers to slowly decline after two consecutive championships, but they are still a strong playoff team.
But this kind of thing is not something that Lakers' management can tolerate.
They began to look for change, and that's where things began.
The Lakers managed to negotiate a trade, which was the league's No. 1 point guard at the time, Chris Paul.
Two historic guards teamed up, but because such a combination was so terrible, the NBA commissioner at the time, David Stern, vetoed the deal for a basketball reason that still doesn't make sense.
In fact, now that I think about it, this reason should not be basketball reasons, but more financial interests.
The trade was denied, and eventually the Lakers relented to form the aging F4 old group.
The youngest of them was Dwight Howard.
Howard, who had a falling out with the Magic, saw the retired jerseys of countless great centers flying high above the Lakers' arena, and he was moved to join the Lakers and wanted to be like that.
It's a pity that there is a heart but no persistence.
Kobe Bryant believes that if Howard wants to become the boss of the team and take over his class, then he must rely on his own efforts to show the corresponding level.
But Howard's level of competition at this time is not good, but he wants to ask to be the boss.
The Lakers' record has plummeted, and everyone is ready to see the joke that the Lakers didn't make the playoffs.
Kobe Bryant worked hard to bring the Lakers to the playoffs, but the NBA super guard who was favored to surpass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's record of 38,000 points has since fallen.
In the game against the Warriors, Kobe Bryant ruptured his Achilles tendon.
Since then, Kobe Bryant has suffered several major injuries in succession, and he finally became physically overwhelmed and retired last season, which is sentimental.
Howard, on the other hand, left for the Rockets after one season.
Howard on the Rockets did not stop and began to verbally attack Kobe Bryant and the Lakers.
As for why Howard is now in the Hawks, he naturally lost in the battle for power between the Rockets and James Harden and left unhappy.
Back to the topic, the reason why fans hate Howard so much is because they love Kobe too much, and Howard hurts Kobe too deeply. It may be said that Kobe's bleak retirement is indirectly caused by Howard.
So Howard may face this kind of treatment when he walks into the Staples Center in the future.
The little guys on the Lakers' side are all looking at Howard across the street with curiosity, wondering how this guy managed to make a city have such a big grudge against him.
But some of the old guys knew it very well, with a faint smile on their faces.
Russell was sidelined due to injury, and Randle also suffered from a cold in this game. Luke Wharton did not put Zhao Wei in the starting lineup.
The starters unexpectedly fielded the likes of Hurtas, Nick Young, Ruhr Deng, Robinson and Mozgov, while several strong substitutes such as Clarkson did not get a chance to start.
"I'll go, coach, are you going to find a beating?" Zhao Wei leaned over to Luke Wharton and whispered.
"What do you know, first fat is not called fat, let you see that it hurts more to punch people later." Luke Wharton glanced at Zhao Wei proudly.
Zhao Wei pouted unconvinced, sat in his seat, and looked at the starting lineup of the Hawks side, Bazemore, Howard, Schroder, Korver and Millsap.
Zhao Wei leaned over to Luke Wharton is side and said, "Coach, do you really have confidence in our starter?" The only guy who can hurt people is Nick Young. The others are all characters who are going to be beaten. ”
"Go while it's cool. Watch well and be ready to play. Luke Wharton glared at Zhao Wei.
Zhao Wei had to sit obediently to the side. Zhao Wei was not afraid of Luke Wharton, mainly because he didn't know what means Luke Wharton used to make Lucy listen to him.
Lucy found it, although she was not afraid, but she had to say that Zhao Wei was the most feared person.
The game between the two sides has finally begun.
In the midst of the Lakers' home boos, "Superman" Howard lost to Mozgov on a jumper.
Ruhrdeng stumbled into the ball and scored. However, even if it is scored, this goal is enough to show that the Lakers are at a disadvantage.
The Hawks' defense was tough, and the Lakers' tactics were very difficult to function.
Nick Young just missed the mid-range, and Millsap immediately instigated a counterattack, throwing the three-point line to the basket.
Howard made a two-handed air tackle and scored the ball.
Even though the fans in the stadium would boo Howard every time he received the ball, such a ball was familiar to him, and there was no possibility of a mistake.
The Lakers' side of the line repeatedly passed to opportunities, and Ruhr Deng missed the shot from mid-range.
The two-time All-Star veteran was signed by the Lakers on a big contract this year, and although his role was more to teach Ingram and serve as a mentor, his performance in the game was still a little too low-key.
In particular, the overall shooting rate was only 32 percent, and the three-point shooting rate was 31 percent.
This means that one out of three goals may not be scored.
The Lakers just didn't score, Schroder immediately grabbed the rebound and threw it directly to the frontcourt, Millsap hit his back, didn't rush to attack, but just took the opportunity to attract the Lakers' defensive attention to himself.
No one noticed Howard, who had already cut in the middle at this point.
As soon as the trend is given, it is another tomahawk split.
In the opening game, Millsap's two passes turned into two assists, both of which were dunk scores.
Paul Millsap is an interesting player.
He wasn't that good when he first entered the league, but since he entered the league, he's kept learning.
Since coming to the Eagles, the technology has become more and more comprehensive. The Eagles' mission was usually given to him before.
Howard dunked twice and smugly glanced at the Staples stands.
His obvious provocation was immediately met with boos. (To be continued.) )
