In fact, he heard the name of J.R. Smith very early on, when Bruce was still in high school on Long Island. He is the Eagle of the Lakewood area of New Jersey, and he rules the region with superpower.

His high school resume was so flawless that one of the phrases he often said was, 'The sky is my limit'.

Indeed, he couldn't wait to join the NBA after graduating from high school, and the New Orleans Hornets used their first-round pick and 18th pick to select the young man with the perfect shooting guard build. JR Smith did show amazing talent on the Hornets, but at the same time, his uninhibited and arrogant personality also earned him a lot of criticism.

In particular, his loose training attitude and reckless game behavior annoyed Scott, a traditional coach who studied under Pat Riley: JR always put himself on top of the team, and while his teammates were practicing free throws, he was painstakingly figuring out how to improve his long-range three-point shooting percentage. He didn't care about the team's loss, and even joked with his teammates about how many games the team would lose next.

The absurdity was finally intolerable to the coaching staff, and he was stripped of his starting position, then his conflict with the head coach went straight to the public, and after a failed season on the bench, the Hornets sent him to the Bulls, who then sent him to the Denver Nuggets.

After moving from New Orleans to the Colorado Plateau, J.R. Smith didn't restrain his personality at all.

When he was still in the offseason, he aimed his gun at Li Zhen. Said a lot of things like that to 'put Bruce to death'.

Two days ago, he rubbed his palms excitedly in front of the camera, with an eager expression: "Finally let me wait for this opportunity." ”

"He doesn't deserve the wealth, fame, and signature shoes he has now. His strength is at the bottom of the NBA, but he enjoys the treatment that only the top stars of the NBA have. It's not fair, so I'm going to set things right. I want everyone to know that wealth is earned by talent. I'm the one who gets God's favor the most, and I should replace him with everything, including the signature shoes. ”

And when Double Star announced the sales of sneakers, JR Smith appeared on TNT with a surprised face: "These people must be crazy." Why don't you give me this kind of support for buying a parallel player's signature shoes so frantically? I'm clearly the better player. ”

"It intensified my heart to clean up with him. I've watched him fight and he doesn't have anything to offer other than speed and flexibility. The players who have played against him before have been too gentle, and I will show the whole American audience his clumsiness. ”

J.R. Smith swore on TV.

He looks very difficult to mess with.

In fact, it is not difficult to see from the highlights given by the videographer that this guy is indeed very outstanding in terms of talent. With a height of 196 and a weight of 96 kilograms, he has an extremely standard defender build, and his bounce ability is extremely good, and his speed and explosiveness are also amazing. His physical gifts definitely belong to the top echelon of the NBA.

If you only look at the highlights, he even looks like Michael Jordan is there in person.

If it was a heads-up bullfight, Li Zhen would definitely be easily abused by him for ten balls.

If he is crazy and misplaced against Li Zhen, Li Zhen is really difficult to parry, and even the most difficult opponent since he joined the NBA.

So, when Lee Jin came to the locker room, his mind was still thinking about how to deal with the JR Smith matter.

Since yesterday, Bill Duffy has been emphasizing in his ear: this is a national live broadcast! It's an all-American livestream! It's an all-American livestream!

For any agent, the all-American live game is a top priority. Playing well in a game like this can garner far more attention than any other game. Many players became famous through the national live broadcast, and there are also many players who are in a mess under the camera of the national live broadcast, and have been slumped ever since.

Bill Duffy hopes Lee can play his own under the weight of JR Smith. But at the same time, he reminded him that it would be best if he could stagger the playing time with JR Smith.

After all, J.R. Smith came prepared.

He was different from the opponent Lee Jin had faced in the preseason. Byron Davis was very strong, but he was careless and unprepared. Randy Foye was well prepared, but he lacked both strength and experience. JR Smith is different, he has both strength and preparation, and he also wants to defeat Li Zhen in exchange for commercial interests.

This kind is the most terrifying.

Therefore, Bill Duffy's heart has long been nervously shrunk.

As an agent, he knows better than anyone. If Bruce loses this game, he will lose face by the arrogant JR Smith. Nike will certainly not continue to raise its offer, and the current price will be recycled, or even refused to be offered. Other commercial offer contracts will also be greatly discounted.

So... Why did Bruce choose to take this hardest path!!

Bill Duffy's heart aches every time he thinks about it.

Compared with Bill Duffy's nervous excitement, NBA fans showed a strong melon-eating mood for this game. Originally, the original intention of this national live broadcast was the battle between Carmelo Anthony and Kobe Bryant for the scoring title. But now, the war provoked by JR Smith has overshadowed the original highlights, and the majority of fans are thinking... The matter of whether Bruce will be eaten alive by J.R. Smith.

It's interesting how Lakers fans reacted. Although they all know that Bruce is certainly no match for JR Smith right now, they firmly believe that the nimble and cunning little fox will definitely be able to play his own style and bring perfect sensory stimulation to everyone.

After a few games in the preseason, Lakers fans have developed a special love for Li Zhen.

The Los Angeles Times even made a public appeal before the game began: We should give Bruce more time to grow. He, like Andrew Bynum, is at the heart of our future. We can accept Bynum being blown up again and again in his rookie season, and of course we can accept Bruce being beaten by his opponents. Time is on our side, as long as we have enough patience.

The Los Angeles media got vaccinated in advance.

On the one hand, this shows that Los Angeles is protective of Li Zhen, and on the other hand, it also shows that everyone is not particularly optimistic about the showdown between Li Zhen and JR.

Interestingly, these voices also made Andrew Bynum more emotional.

At the age of nineteen, he was very unhappy with the fact that Bruce had become the new favorite of Los Angeles, and he was even more depressed when he learned that Li Zhen's signature shoes were selling extremely well. So, he even went to have a sullen drink, and then went to a nightclub to vent fiercely: What benefits did this kid take advantage of? Why does he make me envious, jealous and hateful about everything?

He's quite upset!

And when he walked into the locker room, he found that the Bruce guy was still holding a notebook and watching JR Smith's video highlights.

Immediately, he couldn't help his emotions and started mocking: "Do you think you can avoid being blown up by watching the opponent's video?" Basketball requires talent!! ”

Forehead....

Li Zhen raised his head.

There was a moment of hesitation in his eyes, and then he inexplicably shone brightly.

Because there is a positive voice in his head: catch the fallen player, cross him!! Pan him!! Pan him!!

Forehead....

Li Zhen struggled to control, he didn't want to pinch his teammates that much.

Bynum, on the other hand, was furrowed by Bruce's strange eyes, and he muttered, "What do you see?" Do you think you can beat JR Smith by looking at me twice? Stop dreaming, rookie. You're just a skinny kid who knows how to dribble fancy. You're not even as strong as the two women I slept with yesterday......"

Forehead...... The case has been solved.

No wonder the positive energy says to capture the fallen players, I see.

Li Zhen shook his head, and he said very seriously: "Andrew." You have to be self-disciplined, you can't squander your talent like this. It's the middle of the season, and you're going to put yourself in the wrong state of preparation, and it's easy to get into trouble. ”

Li Zhen's heartfelt persuasion.

Andrew Bynum didn't appreciate it, he scolded and scolded: "Pretend to be a decent gentleman, aren't you the same as Sister Olsen?" I'm annoyed when I see people like you. The biggest difference between me and you is that I have more God-given gifts to squander than you. Envy, envy! ”

As he spoke, he didn't forget to reach out and push Li Zhen.

And made a condescending push-and-bump motion, as if to permanently suppress Bruce under him.

Forehead....

Li Zhen closed his eyes helplessly at the moment when he pushed himself.

I really don't want to!

I was hesitant to deal with JR Smith, and if JR Smith had completely figured himself out, it would be really hard to get rid of it. But now, why are you sending it to your door? I teach you seriously, but you say that the gift God has given you is squandered at will.

Isn't this a slap in the face of positive energy?

If there is a god in the head, can't young people take it easy?

Well...!

Yes!

It's so comfortable!
