Because in the previous trade with the Suns, the Lakers sent Rice, Lewis, Fisher and others in addition to all of the team's 2000 draft picks, so the Lakers' general manager Jerry West knows better than ever

If you want to stop the rising northern dragon, it is not enough to rely on the current Lakers.

As we all know, in the Michael Jordan era, in order to fight that Bulls, every team in the league with ambitions would hoard a large number of forward players on the outside.

Therefore, West knows

If they want to solve Su Feng and get Kobe Bryant one step closer to freeing up Bryant in the game, while getting Kidd, the Lakers will have to focus on their outside personnel reserves.

But

As for the salary cap in 2000, the space left for the LOGO man to operate was not as operable as Su Feng in his previous life when he formed the Warriors team in the future.

Therefore, West is also very clear that this summer, in addition to letting the workers play their own subjective initiative, the Lakers have no second way to go on the road of reinforcement.

So now the question arises.

Those players who have dreamed of wearing Lakers jerseys since childhood.

They

Want to "home" now?

As one of the founders of the original dynasty of the Bulls, Horris Grant, who was paired with the Sharks during his time with the Magic, became the first player to respond to the Lakers' "call to home" this summer.

In the previous multi-party trade in which the Knicks swept Ewing out of the house, because of Su Feng's previous life, Rice, the key figure in the deal, was sent to the Suns, so the Suns naturally replaced the Lakers and became one of the main players in this deal.

Of course, if Su Feng remembers correctly, in his previous life, the Sun would also be involved in this transaction, but at that time, the Sun was just an accompanying existence.

So, after this multi-party deal was reached, the Suns not only managed to get rid of Rice's salary baggage, laying a solid foundation for them to sign Maddy in the summer, but also reached a buyout agreement with Grant as soon as possible after getting Grant and multiple draft picks.

For the Suns, who decided to build a team with young people such as Maddy, Marbury, and Lewis as the core in the new season, veterans like Rice and Grant are obviously not the "ideal answer" they want.

According to the NBA's buyout agreement, if a player is still not claimed by the team 48 hours after being bought out, the buyout agreement reached between Grant and the Suns will be counted towards the Suns' salary cap.

But because NBA teams will pay in installments when they take the buyout agreement, after buying out Grant, Grant's salary included in the Suns' salary cap is a very small part.

In Su Feng's previous life, including when he was a fan, at first, like most people, he couldn't understand why these NBA teams liked to buy out those powerful veterans so much. But in fact, in this way, after the original team buys out these veterans, they can not only successfully save money, but also let these veterans have the right to pursue their dreams again at the end of their careers.

Therefore, after waiting for the end of the buyout clarification period, Grant didn't even think about it, and couldn't wait to express his identity to the world for his 30 years of lake honey.

And the LOGO man didn't even think about it, and his backhand snap was a base salary contract, which won the cornerstone of the championship for the Lakers.

However, Grant's arrival, although it successfully solved the Lakers' weakness at the power forward position, also continued to have a leading edge with the "Zen Master".

But after all, this product is just an inside player after all, and it is still far from the idea of the LOGO man wanting to organize the "Su Feng Killer Group".

And just when the LOGO man posted "Lakers' child-finding revelation" everywhere, Michael Jordan also sent God assistance to the Lakers.

In Su Feng's previous life, if you know enough about the grievances between Jordan and the Wizards, then you should know that in fact, Jordan has already reached a private agreement with the Wizards' pit boss.

For this reason, the Wizards did not hesitate to cut Richmond, who was reimbursed for injury, in the 00/01 season, and also prepared a bunch of high-potential newcomers and draft picks for the Wizards after Jordan joined through various operations.

Of course

If the Wizards hadn't let Jordan do so much team-building manipulation after that, then maybe the Wizards would have risen a long time ago.

All in all.

Since someone's popularity is surpassing him at a rate that is visible to the naked eye, Jordan has indeed reached a PY deal with the Wizards privately this summer, before being knocked out of his ribs by Pierce and Atay together.

That is, even if Jordan does not come back in the future, he will join the management of the Wizards and build a "championship team" for the Wizards through his "unparalleled" overall view and his knowledge reserve as the league's number one "football master".

And for this reason, seeing that Richmond was already 35 years old, and still receiving such a high salary, Jordan suggested that the Wizards buy out the goods without thinking about it.

After all, whether it's Jordan or Wizards management, in their opinion, the Wizards should be in a bad rebuild next season.

And in case, Richmond, who averaged 17+ per game last season, led the Wizards to win a few more games, and the Wizards couldn't get a good draft pick, what do you say the Wizards should do at that time?

So, after the Wizards reached a buyout agreement with Richmond, the "Lakers Son" finally welcomed a key gentleman this summer.

With a two-year contract with a base salary, the LOGO man easily did what most general managers in this league couldn't do.

I have to say that the history of the Lakers' team building is completely a "history of making a fortune in vain".

After the construction of successive generations of Lakers owners, in the hands of old Buss, this Lakers not only has a brand advantage that other teams in the league cannot match, in addition, Los Angeles, the city of angels, also has its own attraction to these stars.

In addition, the main framework composed of O'Neal, Kidd, and Kobe Bryant is too fascinating, so Richmond, like Grant before him, chose to join the Lakers without thinking much about it.

And before joining the Lakers, Richmond didn't think about the Raptors.

But for one, freezing Canada is not attractive to these American stars, and Richmond is not as superstitious as Barkley is that Su Feng will take him to the championship.

So, since the Lakers in the West have also reached the Finals in the past two years, think of him Richmond, who is also a dignified former NBA All-Star.

Why would he want to join a team that was already a champion before he joined?

However, neither Grant nor Richmond.

Because these two people will also join the relationship of the Lakers in the original historical trajectory, so in Su Feng's opinion, these operations of the Lakers are not unexpected by him.

What really made Su Feng feel the terrible attraction of the Lakers brand this summer.

That has to be the addition of the third "Laker's son".

And this time, the root cause of all this

If you don't blow it, you can't blow it, Su Feng has to stand up and take the pot by himself.

As we all know, as the number one Qiao Chui and the number one honey in this league, Miami's "god operator" Su Feng and Jordan have not been a day or two.

And among them, especially the young and vigorous Su Feng, has already become Riley's heart knot.

In Su Feng's previous life, looking at the history of Riley's team building in the Heat, you will find that Riley has always been committed to finding the next Jordan.

Whether it's Jones at the beginning of the 21st century, or Wade after that, or Jimmy Butler later.

Even if he can't get Jordan, he is looking for players who are similar to Jordan in style as much as possible.

And this life, in Riley's opinion.

As long as God is willing to give Su Feng to him, then even if he asks Riley to make a cow and a horse for Su Feng, he is willing.

In fact, after Su Feng knocked out O'Neal in the finals for two consecutive years, Riley had already made up his mind.

That is.

In this cycle when Su Feng has just renewed his contract with the Raptors, it doesn't matter if he can't get Su Feng.

But the Heat must prepare in advance for Su Feng's next transfer cycle.

As a result, Eddie Jones, who was originally going to be signed by Riley as a "consolation" this summer, was decisively given up by Riley.

After all, if the Heat's space is locked up because of the signing of Jones, then when Su Feng jumps out of the final year of his contract with the Raptors, who will he Riley go to?

Ha?

You say that Riley's operation of pinning all the team's hopes on Su Feng joining the Heat in the future is a bit too much for the Knicks?

That.

So what?

Because Su Feng is strong enough, it's worth it!

Even if he can't get Su Feng, Riley will have to gamble on it!

Otherwise, even after he dies, he will not be able to forgive himself!

After all, why should Phil Jackson, that slut, coach Michael Jordan, and John Davis, that stupid donkey, coach Su Feng, but he Pat Riley.

But he can only coach the likes of Mourning and Hardaway?

Riley knows that in this cruel alliance, opportunities don't come to the door.

So, he had to create opportunities for himself.

As for the Heat's results in the coming years?

It doesn't matter!

As long as you can get Su Feng, what if you lose the results of the past few years?

No one knows better than Riley that in basketball, you have to have good players before you have a chance to compete for a championship.

So, after Riley gave up on Jones, an interesting scene emerged.

Because this summer, the strong teams that Jones wants to go to have no salary space, and those weak teams are very unattractive to Jones.

So.

Lost Eddie, do you want to "home"?

Do you think about the Los Angeles Lakers you've fought for?

Do you remember the snow in Los Angeles, the nightclubs in Los Angeles, the steakhouses in Los Angeles?

Come.

Dry this bowl of "California beef noodles"!

For the 29-year-old Eddie Jones, how can you say that he is not nostalgic for the Lakers of the past?

You know, Kobe Bryant was still a little ghost behind his ass in his rookie season.

So, since there is no suitable team on the market, why not accept the Lakers' mid-class exception for themselves?

year.

Jones, the "son of the Lakers," responded to Jerry West's call.

Although only for a year.

But in the eyes of the LOGO man, compared with Grant and Richmond before him, this is the player he wants the most this summer.

And so far, next season, the Lakers will even have five players who have been selected as All-Stars in the past three years.

Everyone now calls this Lakers human.

———— "Five-Star Lakers".

Toronto.

When the news of the completion of the formation of the "Five Star Lakers" came, Su Feng was stunned at first, and then stunned.

And then

He kicked Barkley back on the treadmill with a backhand.

What is clear is that the Raptors will have to face a test next season compared to the 98/99 and 99/00 seasons that even Michael Jordan and LeBron James have not experienced.

Seriously, even if there is any big news now, he Su Feng will not be surprised by this.

"Susu, have you watched the news?"

On this day, in the Steel House, when Su Feng was busy hammering Carter, Big Ben suddenly walked in front of Su Feng with a frightened face.

Hearing this, Su Feng signaled Da Ben to calm down, and then said to him calmly: "Ben, how many times have I told you, you are also a player who has won two championships, so when you encounter something, don't act like a rookie." ”

Big Ben: "."

It is worthy of Su Feng!

Is Sukei the courage of the first active player in the NBA?

Even with Grant Hill joining the Suns, will you be able to stay calm?

"Huh? What did you say!? ”

Su Feng was shocked.

This time it was a real shock.

And it's the kind of surprise that comes with it!

In October, just as people were busy discussing whether the "five-star Lakers" could end the Raptors' domination of the NBA

The Suns have officially agreed to a deal with the Pistons for Grant Hill, the second-largest small forward in the East.

In this deal, the Suns will send Clifford Robinson and Anfernee Hardaway in a sign-and-trade deal with several draft picks that the team previously acquired in Ewing's multi-party trade.

And they will be swapped back from the pistons.

———— Grant Hill.

So far, Hill has got his "Pippen", and Maddie has also got his "deputy" after starting a new mountain.

"I'm a Westbrook!"

Boy!

Su Feng directly slapped a good guy on the public screen at that time.

No blowing, no black, in this league, in Su Feng's opinion, I am afraid that there is no team more suitable for Hill than the Suns.

Because as for Hill's knee that is about to collapse, who else can save it but the sun's miracle doctor?

In Su Feng's previous life, even if it was Hill after N reimbursements, the sun's divine doctor could repair him, and also reinstalled the eight-cylinder engine for him

One thing to say, this is really not Su Feng's people, following others to brag about the miracle doctors of the Sun team.

but

People are indeed able to fix these top supercars.

Also, after the Suns close this deal.

Hong Kong Zhen, in the current league, even the Raptors have to be compared to this Suns in terms of potential value.

Marion, Hill, Maddie, Lewis

Gee!

That is, this sun lacks Nash, and the main control is Fisher.

Otherwise, what a terrible team it would be?

Dry.

Well done!

"Sure enough, even after leaving the Raptors, Tracy's heart is still towards Toronto."

On this day, while rubbing Carter's dog head angrily, Su Feng thought to himself.

Don't look at the short term, this Suns can't pose a threat to the Raptors for a while

But as long as this sun can be guided by a good teacher.

The five-star Lakers?

O'Neill waited for the sun to slip away and cry in the West first

When the time comes, even if the Lakers pass the sun and the Mavericks, they will have to shed their skin if they don't die.

……

Although there are still a few days left before the start of the new season.

But Su Feng already felt in the dark that this rampant era was setting up a good stage for the stars who were about to take the stage.

What bullshit in the best of times and worst of times?

In Su Feng's view, the next few years may be the most tragic years in the NBA.

In the East, whether it is a championship group led by the Raptors, Celtics, and Philadelphia, or in the West, a Western powerhouse led by the Lakers, Mavericks, and Suns, or a new division like the Nets.

in a word

If he is a fan, then Su Feng is quite happy about it.

But as a player

In order to welcome the new season in the best condition, Su Feng found that in the past summer, although he earned hundreds of millions of "iron value" in the Olympic Games, he had a national battle bonus.

However, there is really not enough time now.

On the 15th, before the start of the preseason of the new season, the NBA announced several rules that will be officially implemented in the new season.

First of all, the famous HC rule will be removed from the 00/01 season.

Of course, in order to allow the players to adapt to the NBA without HC rules, at the regular meeting of the referee group before the start of the new season, this group of referees adhering to the "fair, open and impartial" since the Stern era knew that in the next three to five years, they need to give the players some time so that they can gradually adapt to the NBA without HC rules.

In addition, starting with the 00/01 season, the three-second defense rule will be officially implemented in the NBA.

And in this way, although starting next season, the NBA will allow teams to use joint defense, but in fact.

At the end of the 90s, when teams had already commonly used "pseudo-joint defense", the use of defense for three seconds weakened the "true joint defense" in a sense.

Because of this rule, the big centers can't stay under the basket all the time to help the team defend, so in the future, mobile fortresses like "The King of Fighters" will gradually become the first choice for teams in the league.

And this is one of the reasons why Su Feng previously suggested that Xiaoyao maintain his weight at about 133 kg to 135 kg.

Because after the NBA introduced the three-second rule of defense, centers had to make up for it.

It is worth mentioning that after these new rules of the NBA were announced, O'Neal also publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the league in an interview.

Because in his opinion, the current league is too biased towards outside players.

However, O'Neill may not believe it when he says it

In fact, even if the NBA changes the rules, for him at his peak, the only thing he can stop is free throws.

And on the 17th, when O'Neal was still protesting the league's new rules, without Su Feng, Nash, Carter and Barkley, the preseason of the new season of the Raptors began.

In the end, the Raptors went 2-5 in the seven preseason games of the new season, becoming one of the worst teams in the preseason.

However, in this preseason, O'Neal Jr.'s progress and Stephen Jackson's adaptability have surprised many Dragons.

In the words of Zhang Weiping, a CCTV commentator who broadcast the NBA preseason game for the first time this year

"Oh, this little O'Neal, this three-point shot is about to stun the opponent and this Jackson, although the basket is a little worse, but this defense is really good."

In addition, because Su Feng missed all the games in the preseason, the Philadelphia gangs on the other side have become the object of more attention of Chinese fans.

In the team's seven preseason games in the new season, Xiao Yao, as the top pick, played in four of them, playing an average of 18 minutes per game, and was able to get 8 points and 5 rebounds.

Because Yao Ming didn't play much time in the preseason, for the rabbits, what impressed them the most about Xiao Yao probably had to be the scene that happened in his preseason opening game.

At that time, in the game between the Philadelphia gangs and the Celtics, because Marbury shook Yao Ming in an attack, Marbury taunted Xiao Yao with spicy chicken words after hitting the shot.

outcome

Next second.

Iverson, who was wearing the same headband as Su Feng, directly pushed Marbury away.

And when he noticed that the person who came up to kill him was Iverson.

Marbury was aggrieved.

Because Iverson helped himself in the new season, and Iverson's status among black players has always been extremely high, so where do you say Marbury dares to talk back?

Get.

In this life, Boss Fu is gone.

But Jie Ai is the boss

No matter how you look at it, it is more fierce than Francis.

"Brother Feng, I heard Dazhi say that in the NBA, rookie players seem to have to help old players with backpacks, right?" On this day, after Xiao Yao finished his preseason game, he called Su Feng's phone as soon as possible.

"It's like. Right? ”

And because a lot of time has passed since his rookie season, Su Feng can't remember whether he helped someone carry a bag during his rookie season.

Anyway, Carter must have helped him carry his bag.

"But Brother Kaede. Why do I want to help the old players with their backpacks, when they are avoiding me? On the phone, Xiao Yao asked with a puzzled expression.

And at this time.

Su Feng admitted that he was sour again.

Because he remembered.

In his rookie season, because Iverson and Big Ben were too vicious, usually, it was the Philadelphia Iron Triangle who bullied others, how dare others bully them?

"Alas!"

Farewell, Aaron.

On this day, Su Feng, who specially asked the assistant coach to come to the Philadelphia Gang's preseason video, noticed that Iverson and Xiao Yao were talking and laughing, and suddenly, he suddenly understood Kobe's mood when he watched him and Iverson play together

And that's it.

After putting the same headband as Iverson in the drawer, from the 00/01 season, there will be no more legends of "headband maple" and "explosive department".

And instead

It will be a Kobe Bryant with the goal of surpassing Su Feng

and a Su Feng with the goal of surpassing Michael Jordan.

00/01 season

Here we go!

……

PS: It's very nice to see everyone guessing the plot, but let's talk about it, Su Feng's 20-season career, and it must be fully recorded, not in the way of bringing it all in the later stage, Ah Jing needs to do a lot of layout. So, isn't it because you can't guess what's going on that that makes this book so good?

PS2: And spoilers aren't interesting! The reason why this book is written in a big smash brawl style and completely changes the course of history is so that you can't skip every season!
