Chapter 434: The Way to Control People (7K Asking for a Monthly Pass!) )
The applause and whistles of the guests in the audience continued for a long time, which was their most sincere blessing to Sun Hao and Scarlett.
Such a pair of talented and beautiful women are enough to envy others.
After the wedding ceremony, Sun Hao and Scarlett went to change clothes, and the second half of the performance continued.
And the second half is obviously the climax of the wedding, and the singers who were invited also illustrate this.
The popular fried chicken Avril Lavigne opened with a song, which completely drove the atmosphere of the scene.
Shortly after Avril's second half performance, Sun Hao and Scarlett changed into toasting clothes to toast the guests according to the custom of Chinese weddings.
It was at this time that Sun Hao had time to really chat with the guests who arrived one by one.
Ordinary people's toasts may last for more than half an hour, but Sun Hao is close to two hours.
However, this process is very meaningful, and Sun Hao is still patient with the fans, and naturally even more so for the guests who are willing to come to cheer.
Even, he carried a grateful heart.
Everyone has their own life, and it is actually rare to be willing to come to your wedding for you.
Some people will say that Sun Hao's current status is eager for those people to come, but many of the people who come are not lower than Sun Hao's status.
There was a hiccup in the process.
When Sun Hao arrived near Durant, Sun Hao found that Durant was a little shy and didn't dare to look at Scarlett.
He hadn't paid attention to it before, but it was only then that he remembered something.
Durant has had a bath water stalk in history.
This has changed, and Durant should not come back to another game in the future: Sister-in-law, I want to drink your bath water!
Should...... Not.
Of course, there are so many guests, and Sun Hao is just an idea that flashed by chance.
After the toast was over, Sun Hao and Stern had a few last chats, and then took Scarlett out for a ride.
Ferrari ENZO, red.
In addition to being expensive, this car has another characteristic at this point in time, that is, because it has not been out for a long time, it is not necessary to buy it if you have money.
Jordan's gift is worthy of the word precious.
Speeding at high speed in Los Angeles in a supercar, the beautiful night view of Los Angeles Beach is out the window.
This wedding, just like the beginning, is full of freshness and uniqueness from start to finish.
……
Because Sun Hao's wedding cannot be videotaped, information about his wedding can only be passed on by word of mouth from those guests.
But even so, the next day, there were still endless reports about Sun Hao's wedding.
Those who appeared at the wedding, Beyoncé and Avril all changed their direction and gained a wave of popularity, including the identity of Doncic Jr. was also dug up.
Unlike in history, Doncic has been in the American public eye since he was a child.
I don't know what it will be like when he comes to the NBA in a few years.
……
Because it was a wedding in the middle of the season, Sun Hao didn't have time to go on a honeymoon or anything.
In fact, the day after the wedding, both of them devoted themselves to their respective jobs again.
Sun Hao continued to prepare for the rest of the season, while Scarlett started filming a new movie.
And following the previous "Eight-legged Monster", Sun Hao provided Scarlett with a new movie script: "Buried Alive".
"Buried Alive" is the most famous low-budget high-grossing film in the history of horror films.
And with an actress like Scarlett as the leading role, the effect will be very different from the one in history.
Of course, compared to the "Saw Horror" series, Scarlett will challenge her acting limits in such a movie.
Whether this film can be as successful as it is in history, perhaps only time will tell.
Sun Hao's first game back after marriage was not easy, and the opponent was the Spurs, who were opponents in the Western Conference semifinals last season.
With the formation of GDP, the Spurs' roster has not changed much in recent years.
One of the most significant signings they made this past summer was to sign former All-Star Eddie Jones, who was cut by the Grizzlies, to supplement the bench.
But just like Duncan, steady has always been synonymous with the Spurs.
Against the Spurs, there is basically no such thing as an easy win.
On the day of the game, the first thing Sun Hao did when he came to the locker room with his assistant was ...... Fat candy.
Since it is a Chinese-style wedding, this custom must also be followed by a Chinese-style wedding.
Of course, Sun Hao's candy is also the highest grade, basically chocolate candy, and there is one called "Daibao Jialai".
This is a French royal chocolate candy that is worth a lot of money.
Eating chocolate candy and feeling the last aftertaste of Sun Hao's wedding, the Lakers players were indescribably happy.
"If you win the game tonight, I'll invite you to a nightclub!"
At this moment, Antoine Walker, who was in a good mood, got up and said.
Today is the team's payday, and Walker is starting to get high.
There was a burst of cheers in the dressing room.
Someone treats them, who doesn't want to?
And it also makes the morale of the players high, after all, you have to win to be happy.
That night, the Spurs-Lakers game kicked off at the Staples Center.
During the warm-up before the game, the on-site photographer kept giving Sun Hao a shot.
On the commentary table, Barkley was also chatting with Smith about yesterday's wedding.
There are competitions every day, but you only get married once.
In addition to the things that have been reported by the media, they also talked about the Ferrari that Jordan gave them.
"Charles, do something! Sun can help you get the only championship! ”
Smith went crazy and set Barkley in a frenzy.
"Isn't it Ferrari, I'll give it away!"
Barkley slapped the table and agreed.
It was a surprise to Smith, and it wasn't like Barkley.
"I know you're someone who walks the talk, and I look forward to hearing from you."
Usually the commentary is that Barkley tried to trick him, but this time he finally came back.
In the chat they had, they finished warming up on the field and entered the opening ceremony.
The Lakers were behind as the home team, and when Sun Hao was introduced to the game, the cheers on the scene seemed to be able to tear down the roof.
The new king of Los Angeles, whose popularity is unmatched.
Sun Hao smiled and waved to greet the audience.
Sometimes I have to admit that most of what a big city like Los Angeles has is completely incomparable to other cities.
After the opening ceremony, the two teams started one after another.
On the Spurs' side, Popovich still started with Ginobili, Parker, Ginobili, Bowen, Duncan and Nesterovic.
On the Lakers' side, Jackson also used the regular starting lineup, Sun Hao, Finley, Ariza, Walker and O'Neal.
A whistle blew on the court, and Duncan flicked the ball back into the Spurs half, officially kicking off the game.
The Spurs started a little differently than they used to, with the offense not coming from Parker and Ginobili, but Duncan sinking straight to the low post with his back to the ball.
Once the ball was in, Duncan began to play Walker with his back.
Walker pouted his big ass and sank down to top Duncan.
Duncan's beautiful footwork moved after turning for a signature 45° shot on the board.
"Bang!"
The ball hit the rebound with pinpoint accuracy, then bounced off and fell into the net.
The Spurs came out on top.
Coming back, O'Neill also picked up the ball on the inside and singled Nesterovic.
In a copy round, O'Neal pressed Nesterovich's turnaround hook to put the ball into the basket.
The opening attack on both sides felt good and didn't look much different from last season.
Duncan, on the inside, continues to play Walker with the ball on his back.
Walker suffered a loss in the last round and did not go to the hard top again this round.
But Duncan is soft when you're hard, and Duncan is hard when you're soft.
A hard back hit, Walker was pushed to lose his defensive position, and Duncan took advantage of the situation to turn around and shoot again!
"Stone Buddha" scored 4 points in a row at the beginning!
And after two rounds, a very intuitive feeling is: Walker can't guard Duncan.
This is also a normal thing.
In fact, for all-round forwards such as Walker and Odom, limited by height, small forward is the most suitable position for them.
As for the reason why they will swing to play power forward, it is also very simple, they can't keep up with the speed when they get older, and the body starts to get better.
If you look at this type of player in history, you can see that this is the common denominator of their careers, and the more they play, the more they play, the more inward they play.
Walker is actually a standard little fat man now, but it's not so obvious to stand next to O'Neill's big fat man.
But there's one big problem that this type of player will have when he plays power forward: defense.
Not to mention the loss of height, the strength that originally had an advantage in the small forward position is no longer there when it comes to the big forward.
Not to mention that Walker is still defending a historic power forward like Duncan.
This is also where this Lakers team can see weaker with the naked eye.
Although the previous Malone was older, played less time, and did not have much strength left on the offensive end, he was at least excellent in interior defense.
Walker, with a little upset on his face.
Although he couldn't prevent it, he was obviously unwilling.
This is also the characteristic of players at the beginning of the century, no matter whether they can fight or not, it is essential to be ruthless and brave.
O'Neal then followed up on the inside, and this time Duncan opted to help defend, and O'Neal turned and played the ball into the bottom corner of Walker.
The Lakers' signature triangle offense.
Walker catches the ball...... But he didn't shoot his favorite three-pointer.
He saw Bowen who was assisting in the defense, and after a false sway, Bowen took the ball and rushed to the basket!
Duncan had already returned to the defense, and Walker faced Duncan to show his all-around skills, turning and shooting in the middle of the march.
"Bang!"
Like the gif in history where Anthony "washed the machine roundabout" and passed the "alphabet brother" Antetokounmpo but was finally covered, Walker's turn was beautiful, but in the end it was covered by Duncan.
technology, in the face of absolute talent, seems very helpless.
There was a stirring at the scene.
Walker was blown up by Duncan on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends after the opening game.
Sun Hao couldn't help but scratch his head.
Not to mention the current Walker, at the peak Walker, he is not Duncan's opponent.
This is the top.
As he retreated, he pulled Walker and said something.
Walker, I didn't listen much.
When a prickly player comes up, no one's words will work.
Phil Jackson reacted quickly, and he walked to the sideline and reached out to signal O'Neal to switch Duncan.
Duncan went straight to the top of the ladder.
On ball business, Duncan and Sun Hao are in the first gear.
A high post should cooperate, Duncan faked a pass to cut into Ginobili, and his own shot from the free throw line from mid-range...... Hit the board into the frame.
"Stone Buddha" has scored 6 points in a row!
Duncan was at the top of the league as soon as he entered the league, so much so that after playing for so many years, he gave people the intuitive feeling that he was already a veteran.
But in fact, he is just 29 years old, and he is at his peak!
Sun Hao burst into points, and Walker received the ball again in the bottom corner.
Although he didn't listen to what Sun Hao said, the ball was beautiful, and he chose to shoot three-pointed.
"Phew!"
The happy Walker feels good, and the unhappy Walker may feel back.
Duncan accurately judged the landing point and picked up the defensive rebound.
Back in the day, it was Duncan again, a fake shot from the free throw line to pick up the chubby big shark, and then a step layup shot caused Walker's hitter!
Walker scolded his mother angrily and almost got a technical foul.
It's kind of why it's always me feeling hurt anymore.
Jackson turned his head and looked behind him thoughtfully.
Although it was Walker who fouled Walker in the end, the ball was ultimately due to O'Neal's inability to keep up with Duncan's pace, or more directly, his speed.
O'Neill's speed after the re-launch was already clearly holding him back.
And in this way, the Lakers are in trouble, and it is also the trouble they didn't have last season: they, no one can guard Duncan!
Walker can't, and neither can O'Neal.
This is not surprising.
Even O'Neal, who was trained by Riley the Devil in history, has only the ability to explode each other in the confrontation with Yao Ming and Duncan.
Some might say that there is also Mourning on the bench.
Obviously, this sounds unreliable.
Mo Ning, who has not yet found his best form, will go to play against Duncan, and the distribution will be faster.
So, very helplessly, the Lakers have no choice but to take Duncan.
Duncan went to the free-throw line and hit both free throws to extend his scoring streak to eight points.
2 to 8.
The Spurs got off to a dream start.
The sidelines were restless, and the scene gave the camera to Sun Hao on the field for the first time.
O'Neal was trapped, and Walker was not in shape, so Sun Hao needed to stand up at this time.
Sun Hao made a tactical gesture, and after giving the ball to Finley, he ran high and leaned his back against Bowen to ask for the ball.
Obviously, this is a high-post back-to-back singles tactic.
The Spurs and Lakers have already played last season, and as soon as Sun Hao gets the ball, the entire Spurs' defense line expands outward, and the package is the norm.
At this time, the value of the back hit is there.
If nothing else, just like an activity between a couple, the new pose can have unexpected effects.
Spurs, not in the bag.
Although Sun Hao has performed on the Mavericks' key backs before, he still uses less than technology, and Popovich doesn't pay too much attention to it.
Sun Hao held the ball, leaned his back against Bowen, and turned his head left and right to observe the defense.
Although Kobe Bryant is no longer with the Lakers, there are still many Kobe fans in Los Angeles, and they are a little in a trance after seeing this scene.
That feeling can be described in one sentence: Kobe Bryant, still with the Lakers.
Sun Hao suddenly turned around and leaned back to make a move.
Bowen has often defended Kobe Bryant since he arrived at the Spurs, so he is no stranger to this kind of back-to-back hit.
But when the familiar foreplay passed, Bowen found that Sun Hao was using a new posture that he had never seen.
Sun Hao's rate of fire is too fast!
The ball was already shot when he pounced, and he was completely caught off guard.
"Huh!"
Then, in the stunned eyes of his defensive giant, Sun Hao's turn and back shot in!
Duncan scored Bowen in the bottom corner of the inside offensive package, Bowen's three-point shot was missed, and O'Neal grabbed the defensive rebound.
The Lakers played a fast break, and Walker finally contributed after a slump in the first few rounds, with an iconic long pass running through the court to Sun Hao.
Sun Hao dodged Parker with a beautiful dribble behind his back, and a flying layup added two more points to the Lakers.
The audience burst into cheers.
6 to 8!
When they were expecting Sun Hao to stand up, Sun Hao really stood up and scored 4 points in a row.
With the ball, Bing!
Duncan is still caught in the ball again, and Jackson's current thinking is that Duncan can't be caught if he can't defend himself.
Bowen got another chance in the bottom corner, and this time he took it, and the three-pointer went up and down.
6 to 11!
Compared with the reinforcement of the Lakers and the improvement of the Mavericks' bench, the Spurs feel that they are set in stone.
But it is this immutability that is the most terrifying.
Because O'Neal is getting older and weaker, but the Spurs are not, the original disadvantage becomes an equalization or even an advantage.
The Lakers advanced to the frontcourt, and Sun Hao continued to hold the ball in the high post.
After seeing that the Spurs still didn't cover the clip, he then chose to play back.
Bowen began to take the initiative to make small moves against the counter, which is what he has always done when defending Kobe.
Sun Hao is tougher than Kobe.
He scolded Bowen, and seized the moment when Bowen's center of gravity was shifted, and quickly turned around and leaned back.
Bowen's ability is still very strong, and he quickly adjusts his center of gravity before pounced.
But, it's still slow.
Sun Hao's one-action shot was easy to block, but it was fast.
This kind of back-to-back singles is rare in the league, and it's a bit like dancing on the tip of a knife.
If you don't dance well, you may get hurt, but dancing well is the most beautiful dance.
"Huh!"
In Bowen's gritted teeth, Sun Hao's back hit continuously!
Only then did Popovich reach out and stroke the beard on his chin, and his eyes stared at Sun Hao for a long time.
One ball doesn't mean anything, but two balls in a row show that Sun Hao's arsenal has added the new weapon of "back singles".
Popovich's eyes were a little complicated, like the feeling of a cold wind blowing Lingling.
Kobe Bryant was the Spurs' nemesis, but now, the Lakers have one more Kobe after sending away one.
It should even be more accurate to say that it should be the plus version of Kobe.
The Spurs are a bit closer to the Jazz team in the last century, and they have become a supporting role for 10,000 years.
Ginobili's frontcourt breakaway layup missed, but the Spurs stepped back fast enough to give the Lakers a quick break.
After falling into the positional battle, Sun Hao then asked for the ball in the high position, and then continued to play with the ball on his back.
This is after tasting a little sweetness, you have to inch in.
The Spurs reacted differently, and Popovich waved his hand and Ginobili went up from the weak side.
Sun Hao, the first time to give the ball to the bottom corner Ariza.
Compared to Walker, Ariza reacted much more decisively, taking quick shots after receiving the ball.
"Huh!"
It's also a knife that falls with a hand!
Like Bell at the beginning, Ariza also trained herself in the direction of 3D, including with Sun Hao this past summer.
To paraphrase 2Konline: his summer training has been fruitful!
11 draws!
Lakers, tied the score!
Sun Hao's back hit caught the Spurs off guard.
And because Popovich wasn't very prepared, he couldn't do it all at once if he wanted to.
Because although Sun Hao's back fighting skills are very different from others, they are obviously the kind that have been trained for a long time and are very mature.
As a result, the Lakers couldn't guard Duncan, and the Spurs couldn't guard Sun Hao, and the game became a battle like last season's playoffs.
At halftime, the Lakers led 61-56.
Sun Hao was undoubtedly the most beautiful boy in the half, he scored 20 points, 12 of which came directly from a goal in a back-to-back single.
This proportion of the score fully shows that Sun Hao's miracle recruitment has achieved miraculous results.
After a short half-time break, the game continued.
Come up to the Lakers' offense, Sun Hao, and then hit the back.
Looking at this posture, he is going to stage a drama of "one trick is fresh, eat all over the world" tonight.
Bowen, the action is obviously starting to get bigger.
Although he didn't dare to pad his feet again because he had been stepped on by Sun Hao before, the dark elbow had already begun to be used.
He had already been pressed to the ground and rubbed half the game, obviously not wanting to be rubbed in the second half.
Sun Hao, the response he gave was also greater!
After the confrontation, he turned around and leaned back, turned around and directly lowered his center of gravity to break through and gave Bowen as a stake!
When he broke into the inner line, Sun Hao accelerated and rose into the air, and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand in the excited look of the fans at the scene!
The atmosphere of the scene was ignited in an instant.
"Man! Don't mess with someone who just got married! ”
Barkley shouted from the commentary box.
The newly married person is still immersed in the joy of marriage, and to provoke him is to ask for hardship!
It turns out that what Barkley said is also right, and Bowen's defensive moves have become bigger and more exciting.
He didn't just play back play, he was good at throwing three-pointers.
He scored 20 points in the entire third quarter, and under his leadership, the Lakers finally stretched the score to double digits.
It was the decisive part of the game.
In the end, the Lakers took advantage of the third quarter to beat the Spurs 116-101 and extend their winning streak to five games.
After Sun Hao's "tepid" performance in the first ten games, he finally ushered in an outbreak.
He scored 28 points alone in the second half and scored 48 points in the whole game, scoring his first 40+ of the season.
I don't feel much about this 40+, and it can even be said that there is no 50+ now, which can no longer meet the fans' expectations for Sun Hao.
Of course, the fans watched this game very coolly.
Sun Hao's back-to-back singles officially attracted attention in this game, and even Barkley's sentence "Don't mess with a newly married person" became the focus of heated discussions among fans after the game.
Of course, in addition to this, Walker's performance is also hotly discussed by fans.
In the first ten games, Walker averaged 13.2 points, 6.5 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game, shooting 37% from three-point range.
That's pretty good.
But tonight against Duncan, he delivered his worst game of the season, shooting 2-of-11 from the field, scoring only 7 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists.
This is a future Draymond Green-style statistic, and it is not surprising that it will be complained about by fans.
Still, some of Walker's qualities are appealing.
He would definitely not be in a good mood for such a bad performance, but after the game, he still fulfilled his promise before the game and took the whole team to the nightclub to pay for it.
"All the expenses tonight will be paid for by Walker Boy".
After two days of rest, the Lakers continue to take on the Timberwolves at home.
The Timberwolves are no longer the team that was in the championship two years ago.
"Madman" Sprewell announced his retirement, "Alien" Kassel transferred to the Los Angeles Clippers when his contract expired, and the former "Timberwolves Three-Headed Monster" was left with Garnett alone in Minnesota.
Garnett's stats are still beautiful, with a 50%+ shooting percentage contributing 20+10+5 all-around stats, and even Szzebiak is averaging 20+ per game for the first time in his career.
But the Timberwolves' record is the worst in recent years.
In this game, the Lakers played easily and maintained a double-digit lead.
In the third quarter, they played a disparity of 35-20 in a single quarter, making the game lose suspense in advance.
However, Walker's performance continued to be sluggish, and he made only 1 of 7 shots, scoring 4 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.
This is really going further and further on the road of Greenization.
And the continuous downturn has not only been discussed among fans.
At the post-game press conference of this game, the reporter directly asked Phil Jackson such a question.
"Is Antoine Walker not a good fit for the current Lakers? Has the summer deal been proven to be a failure? Is the team looking to trade a power forward with a better defense? ”
Reporters in Los Angeles never soft-mouthed when it comes to questions, a trifecta of death.
This is also characteristic of Los Angeles, where as a celebrity is a little inattentive, everything will be put under a magnifying glass.
Walker was not caught by reporters in the last game, largely because he can only be regarded as the team's third or even fourth leader at best.
But playing two games in a row is so bad, for the Los Angeles media has long exceeded the limit of tolerance.
The other reporters all looked at Jackson.
They wondered how Jackson would answer the question.
"Who can guarantee that a person's life will always be smooth?"
Jackson's answer was very Zen master.
"We don't judge a player's ability based on their performance in one or two games, just like there are always a few times in a person's life that suck at home."
After saying two very meaningful words, Jackson officially cut to the chase.
"Antoine is one of the most versatile players of the new century, it's not what I said, it's Ervin and Larry who said it, and he's a good fit for the Lakers in terms of technical characteristics, and we'll help him get back into the game in the later time."
Sun Hao turned his head to look at Jackson.
This was more like a standard answer than what he had said before.
And unlike him, Jackson shows a complete way of mastering people.
That's what he does best.
Speaking of which, coach Jackson said that the second is estimated that no one dares to say the first.
Superstar basketball looks simple, but there are only a handful of games that can be played.
The next day, Jackson's words were also reported by the media as they were.
Walker was stunned for a moment when he read the newspaper in training session the next day.
From his expression, Sun Hao read not only shock and surprise, but also moving.
In fact, even if Walker is replaced by him, if he experiences this kind of thing, he will be moved to hear Jackson's words again.
"Sun, I'm ready to lose weight!"
At this moment, Walker suddenly turned his head to look at Sun Hao, who was looking at him, and spoke.
