Chapter 293: Start with the Jazz and End with the Jazz!

(Ask for evaluation votes!! )

As the new NBA season approaches, the Lakers' training has become stronger and stronger in intensity in recent times, there is no way, the team's table in the preseason in recent times is indeed a little unseemly, in the face of the most rubbish team in the West, this Laker can't win a game under normal circumstances, the continuous failure of the preseason, the sarcasm and sarcasm of many media in the United States have almost become the biggest lock on the Lakers.

This season, the changes of the Lakers are indeed too big, and although most of the Lakers have expected such a situation, when things are really raw, and things are more violent than they imagined, it still makes people feel almost completely speechless.

The Lakers used the entire team to exchange Lin Han from the Jazz, such a deal was full of controversy at the beginning, except for Jerry West's confidence in Lin Han, a good-looking player, the rest of the Lakers were actually not very satisfied with Jerry West's decision, not to mention the team owner, even the team's fans and the media in Los Angeles are similar, but Lin Han was indeed the hottest player in the league at that time, and he just won the MVP of the Finals in the Finals, In addition, he can have the skills of a magician, and it seems that he has a lot to do with magicians, in this case, although many Los Angeles do not have him, they really treat Lin Han coldly, and they do not blow it or depreciate it, anyway, let's take a look first, after all, in Los Angeles, Jerry West's prestige is indeed very strong.

The decision of the godfather of the Lakers, both for the Los Angeles media and for the Lakers fans. That's all with great authority, since Jerry West trusts Lin Han so much, although they are not very optimistic. Then you can also want to observe, after all, Jerry West's vision is much stronger than theirs.

And what is the end result?

When the Lakers' preseason season kicked off, the team's preseason performance was so bad that the Lakers didn't know what to say.

The team even heard boos from home fans for the first time this season after losing to the Trail Blazers on January 2o, and then lost to the Warriors, Mavericks and Clippers in the next three games!

And on January 26, all eight of the Lakers' preseason games ended. The team has lost eight games in a row throughout the preseason without winning a single one, while the team has lost by an average of 18 points in eight games. It can almost be said that every game was beaten by other teams!

However, for NBA teams, preseason games don't really mean anything, and they won't be ultimately counted in the team's regular season record and rankings. But for a lot of NBA fans and the media. A team's preseason table can be said to be the most important situation to predict the trend of the team's new season, in the history of the NBA, there are not many teams that have lost all eight games in the preseason, and it can even be said that except for the Lakers, there is really no fan to find such a team!

In this case, in the face of the Lakers' record, Lakers fans are quite dissatisfied, and the media in Los Angeles are also quite dissatisfied. After all, it's a shame that the team hasn't played like this in history. Although the Lakers table is like this now, from the point of view of the table, it has little to do with Lin Han.

After all, although Lin Han didn't play so much time in the preseason, but with an average of 22 minutes per game in eight games, Lin Han was able to average 16 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists per game, which is actually very good, even the almighty young Hardaway and Grant Hill, who have been blown up in recent times, these two have played more time than Lin Han's, and the number jù is about the same as Lin Han's, or even worse, with Lin Han's number jù, there is really nothing to blame, just look at it alone, not to mention that the Lakers have lost eight in a row, even if they lose in a row of eighty times, if Lin Han's number is taken out, the loss of this team has nothing to do with him.

In fact, according to the statistics of caring people, in all the 18o minutes that Lin Han played in 8 games, the Lakers did not lose in these 18o minutes, but win, and when Lin Han was on the court, the Lakers won the opponent by 4 points in 18o minutes!

In other words, during the other half of the time when Lin Han was not on the court, the Lakers lost by an average of 18 points per game! When a team loses by 18 points in 26 minutes per game, is the team still an NBA-caliber team?!

After all, if this is converted into a full game, when the Lakers don't have Lin Han, if other teams play 48 minutes, it will be a rhythm of losing an average of 35 points per game!

Even a slightly stronger NCAA team may not be as miserable as the Lakers!

If you look at it from such a number, Lin Han doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Lakers' losing streak, but as many people said when they ridiculed the Lakers, if it weren't for the other elite players of the team in exchange for Lin Han, the other players of the Lakers would not have become such garbage as they are now, and the reason why the Lakers' overall strength has declined like this is not because of Lin Han?

If the Lakers hadn't replaced Lin Han with the team's elite players, how could the Lakers be so miserable in the preseason, except for Lin Han and Dominic Wilkins, there was almost no one else who scored, and the ones who were slightly able to score were Van Axel and Eddie Jones, and one of these two people lost their rhythm after the start of the season, and the other was a rookie player who had not yet found the rhythm of the NBA, as for the player who should be Lin Han's biggest helper, Dominic Wilkins is still clocking in and out of work, Focus on your own business and don't care about the situation of the team.

In this case, the Lakers are in the current situation, the scoring is weak, and the defense is not very good, in fact, it is understandable, each game can score about 9o minutes at most, but almost every game can lose 11o points, the Lakers' scoring and conceding points in each game are simply stable and make Lakers fans and Los Angeles media feel terrible.

Therefore, at this time, Lakers fans and the media in Los Angeles have almost no problem taking the team's current status quo out on Lin Han. Jerry West brought in Linhan, which was no problem, but Linhan didn't just have the Lakers trade the entire team for him.

Therefore. When the Lakers' preseason season ended, there were already a lot of media outlets who defined the Lakers' Lin Han trade as the worst deal in the history of the Lakers, and even one of them could be removed.

Especially compared to the Jazz team after losing Lin Han to make up for Stephen Smith and Hornacek, the team's eight wins in the preseason, the situation of the Lakers and Lin Han is simply miserable,

"Basketball is not a sport that can be played by one person, and both Jerry West and Lin Han should understand. I remember this summer, Lynham had a lot of options, and he could even come to the New York Knicks. I remember David Chekecs once lobbied Linhan to come to New York, and even Patrick was willing to give Linhan enough status to the team for this, but it was a pity. Lynham chose the Los Angeles Lakers. If he had come to the New York Knicks, he wouldn't have struggled like he has with Patrick, and of course, I think he's going to regret it now, but I think after a season or two. When Lin Han still wanted to come to the New York Knicks, he was no longer worthy of this team. The New York Knicks never let a big guy rule, hahaha"

"The Jazz made a good trade, they traded one Lin Han in exchange for two players who can replace Lin Han's position, whether it is Stephen Smith or Hornacek, they are very good, from the current point of view, Lin Han is really not that important to the Jazz, Lin Han without the Jazz team, nothing, and without Lin Han, the Jazz team is still winning one victory after another, so I am now very unhappy when Karl Malone and Stockton talked about Lin Han's problems the day before yesterday, Malone is right, basketball is a five-person sport, and Lin Han is just one of the Jazz team players who won the championship last season! ”

"How many people still remember Lin Han's shouting when he won the championship last season that I came, I conquered? I guess this rookie has forgotten that feeling of self-esteem now, right? Perhaps, he was originally a player who didn't deserve Caesar's shoes! ”

"The Road to Glory is about to be released at the same time as the air slam dunk in half a month, and it may be particularly delicious when we go to see this movie with Lin Han's shameful road this season, so, Lin, don't be discouraged, I will contribute a movie ticket for you, I believe this movie can bring me laughter"

When the Lakers' preseason is over, and the preseasons of other NBA teams are all over, Lin Han and the Lakers have encountered unimaginable ridicule and accusations, in fact, according to the tradition of pursuing the winner, this season's preseason because of David Stern and the league's arrangement, there are all winning teams in the East and West, whether it is the Bulls or the Jazz in the preseason, according to the records of these two teams, the media in the United States should report more about these two teams. Even if the Jazz's popularity plummeted again after the loss of Lin Han, but the Bulls are always extremely popular after Jordan, right? Coupled with Jordan's comeback, playing an average of 27 minutes per game in eight games, such an offensive efficiency simply makes him unable to see the feeling of not playing in any year.

But to everyone's surprise, when Lin Han and the Lakers' eight consecutive losses came out, Jordan and the Jazz's eight consecutive wins were all on the side, and even before the start of the preseason, Glenn Robinson forced the Bucks to sign a 1o year 68oo dollar news became a supporting role, you know, Glen Robinson's contract made him the NBA's highest-paid player, and similarly, Kidd also forced the Mavericks to sign a 9-year, 54oo contract, although smaller than Glen Robinson, But because of this contract, the annual salary I remember will be the third most in the NBA, second only to Admiral David Robinson and Glenn Robinson, and Grant Hill is not as greedy as Glenn Robinson and Kidd, the 6-year contract of 31oo is actually nothing in front of the rookie players' higher and higher annual salaries, the average annual salary is only 5oo, with Grant Hill's popularity, even if he shouts 1o years and 100 million like Glenn Robinson, I'm afraid that the Pistons will eventually be forced to meet his annual salary of at least 8oo or so.

Of course. In any case, after signing contracts with the three rookies this year, they have become the NBA's current average annual salary per game. After the third and fourth players, the NBA veterans and NBA owners finally can't stand it, and then let the rookies' greed swell uncontrollably and stop the NBA, after all, most players can't recognize their true value in front of money. So it was a big deal before the preseason began, but after the Lakers' horrific eight-game losing streak, it was still suppressed in momentum, even with a heavy rule change in the NBA this year. The league's three-point line distance has been shortened to 6.7o this year, which could have changed the league's situation, after all. The shortening of the three-point line is not only beneficial to outside players, but also to many interior players, and the shortening of the three-point line means that the range of defensive players is compressed, and the help and support of interior players will become easier. Especially for players who are strong defensively. For example, David Robinson and Olajuwon and others, the three-point line that was untouchable before is no longer so untouchable, as long as they want, these guys can really cover the entire half, and this should have been discussed wildly, but in front of the Lakers and Lin Han, it still can't make headlines.

When the preseason starts. The Lakers are crazy about making headlines, although this aristocratic team has long been familiar with things like headlines. But at this time period, no one can be happy to make headlines in such a way.

"Lin don't be surprised by these people's opinions, we are still just running in, and the team's preseason table has nothing to do with you"

When the NBA regular season is getting closer and closer, the Lakers are now a little nervous and nervous on the whole team, and now they really don't have many people who can get up easily, the team record is like this, although they don't think that the Lakers can enter the playoffs this season, but even if they don't think about entering the playoffs or working hard, but if the table is too ugly in the game, it is embarrassing to lose too much.

What's especially good is that the team's first game of the regular season is the defending champion Jazz, as long as you think of this seven-pair preseason win in eight games, this team is almost the whole preseason crushing opponents, then the Lakers players are a little weak.

In the case of the Jazz team, the preseason is indeed very suitable for them, the thickness of the team's lineup is extremely strong because of the trade of Lin Han, in this case, in the preseason when the core players will not play for 3o minutes, who in the league can compare with the Jazz team in terms of player thickness? Coupled with the fact that the main body of this team is very stable, at least in the preseason game intensity, not many teams can force this team's weakness after losing Lin Han.

In this case, this Jazz team is really the first team in the preseason, it's like seeing who kills whom, and the Bulls actually mean something about it, the thickness of this team's lineup is actually extremely strong, plus the opponents are all weak teams and ordinary teams.

Therefore, although the Lakers know that they meet the Jazz in the preseason, they are likely to lose more than 30 points, but they may not really lose so much in the regular season, but this Jazz team is indeed quite ferocious, and after both sides have ended the preseason, when the focus of the whole United States is on this NBA opener, especially when several core players of the Jazz team said that they would not keep in this game, these Lakers players are indeed very weak-minded.

Everyone can see that Lin Han has said that he is not familiar with Ma Long before, and it can be said that he is a provocation to Ma Long, as for Ma Long, although he feels a little guilty about Lin Han, he feels that he is not so authentic, if Lin Han thinks that Ma Long will show mercy to the Lakers or his subordinates because of his guilt, it is absolutely wrong, with Ma Long's funny character, if he really has that kind of shame, the first thing he has to do is not to compensate Lin Han or show mercy to the Lakers. Instead, he recognized his illegitimate children first.

Therefore, Ma Long does have some weakness and a little guilt towards Lin Han, but it comes and goes quickly, as for now, I am afraid that Lin Han's contempt for Ma Long makes him more angry and unhappy with Lin Han.

Therefore, before the Jazz and Lakers started the season opener, that is, after the preseason between the two sides, when Malone was interviewed, his impatient tone and tone were as if he had defeated the Lakers and humiliated Lin Han. Quite arrogant.

So, if the Lakers want the Jazz to be merciful to them because Lynham and the Lakers have a lot of former Jazz players, that's not going to happen, in this case. Many Lakers players are already desperate for the game against the Jazz on the road two days later, and it must be a miserable defeat, which is something that you don't have to think about.

"Erwin, I don't care what the outside says, it's just that this team is really not in a very good state right now."

When the Lakers' training was suspended, Lin Han looked at Magic Johnson, who was already a little blessed in his training clothes, and said helplessly.

Lin Han's opinion in the unexpected world? Of course I care. Especially when he saw Ma Long's joke being interviewed in the newspaper, the tone of wanting to cut him down to prove that he was stronger than Lin Han, Lin Han was unhappy for a while.

If only the two sides were equal in strength. If Malone really had such arrogance and tone, Lin Han would not care, the key is that fools can see that the Lakers and the Jazz are completely unequal in strength, in this case, this comic puts the victory or defeat of himself and Lin Han above the victory or defeat of the Jazz and the Lakers. Isn't this a clear indication of bullying and taking advantage? In Lin Han's opinion. Ma Long's behavior is a cowardly behavior that he doesn't dare to do with him head-on.

was said by such a defeated general and a coward, how could Lin Han not care.

It's just that, compared to Malone's arrogance, the Laker's own problem is the biggest now.

Originally, in Lin Han's opinion, with his strength, it is easy to succeed in a team, even if he was forced to leave the Jazz team to come to the Lakers, who have all come back, Lin Han is also full of confidence. Now, Lin Han is also full of confidence. But in a short period of time, it is really difficult for the Lakers to really soar to the sky as Lin Han thinks.

At the very least, there is little hope for this team to help him beat the Jazz until it is fully run-in? That's almost impossible.

For Lin Han's current expression, Magic Johnson is very clear, that kind of unwillingness and helplessness, this Lakers legend can see that this team can't help Lin Han right now, which makes Lin Han a little disappointed.

In the face of Lin Han's loss, Magic Johnson didn't know what to say for a while, or didn't know how to comfort Lin Han.

Could it be that if you accept defeat with peace of mind now, there will always be a day when the team will end its run-in and rise, but it is clear that although this is true, it is not suitable to say it.

Therefore, both of them were a little silent for a while, and although Lin Han was silent, his eyes became more and more determined.

"Even if my team can't help me in this game, I must beat you!"

Thinking of the defeated subordinate who betrayed him, Lin Han secretly thought in his heart at this time, looking at his extremely frustrated teammates, Lin Han's hands were already tightly clenched.

Now the Lakers need a win, and Lin Han also needs a win at this time, especially against the Jazz!

"Stephen, the next game against the Lakers you will, don't be pressured, we're going to win"

As the NBA opener approaches, the Lakers are nervous as a team, and compared to the Lakers' nervousness, the Jazz are actually very relaxed.

After the end of the season, Lin Han was sent away by the team, which seemed to have no impact on the strength of this team, this team came Stephen Smith, came to Hornacek, it can be said that both the bench has been supplemented, especially the thickness of the team has become better.

Moreover, whether it is Malone or Stockton, they are also very satisfied with this young genius of Stephen Smith, because this guy is too similar to Lin Han, he can score three points, can hold the ball, can organize and defend, the only difference is that he is slightly worse than Lin Han in all aspects, but for Malone and Stockton, Lin Han is indeed stronger than Stephen Smith, but if it is an obedient little brother, Steve Smith's strength is enough, Lin Han is because he is too strong, That's why the Jazz did so many things last season, and although Smith is not as strong as Lin Han, it is enough for the Jazz.

So Malone and Stockton are really, really satisfied.

Of course, he is also very happy for Steve Smith, who is one of the two guns on the Heat. He was the third best player on the Jazz team, one of the duo of an average team and one of the trios of a championship team in terms of status, which is incomparable. Although Salt Lake City is indeed a little less, few people can endure loneliness, but Steve Smith is different from other black people, his personality is actually very different from blacks, although he will also be young and frivolous, but he does not spend off the court, this championship-chasing Jazz team is more in line with his heart than the Heat of the flower world. There are too few players like Steve Smith in the NBA, and if the NBA has such players, the Jazz don't have to worry about their small market.

So. When such a player with potential, ability and ability to endure loneliness and willingness to be a junior brother to the team's two bigwigs appeared, the entire Jazz team was really excited, not only the two elders took good care of him, but also other people such as the team's owner, head coach and general manager.

However, it is slightly dissatisfying for Steve Smith or Hornacek. While the big guys on the team love them, a lot of the team's role players don't like them.

The Jazz traded for Linham, which was something the team accomplished in the offseason, when most of the team's players were on vacation, so when this happened, most of the Jazz players were extremely shocked.

Lin Han's style of play is very problematic in the Jazz team, but it is impossible to say that the rest of the Jazz team has an opinion about Lin Han for this reason. In fact, most of the Jazz players were extremely angry about Linham's departure.

And this direct expression is that although Lin Han left. The team's faction is only Malone and Stockton, but in addition to these two, whether it is Russell, PJ Brown, or Polines or Elliott or even David Wesley, who previously belonged to Stockton, they also ignore several newcomers to the team.

It's not just that the arrival of these newcomers can squeeze their position, being pressed on the bench by Lin Han, they are convinced, even Elliott, an All-Star, is convinced, but the others, whether it is Hornacek or Steve Smith, they are not strong enough to convince these people, plus what was Lin Han's contribution to the team last season? Such players were sent away by the Jazz team, which is indeed a great hurt to the remaining players emotionally, or is it that sentence, Yu Private, these guys are here to compete with them, they don't like it, Yu Gong, Lin Han's contribution to the team has made them unfair, and they are not happy, and most of these people have received great favors from Lin Han, such as David Wesley, if it weren't for Lin Han, he would be able to have his current performance and status in the team?

In this case, Stephen Smith wants to really replace Lin Han in the Jazz team, it is not easy, even the Jazz fans and the media in Salt Lake City are not very enthusiastic about him, Lin Han puts too much pressure on him, when he comes to the Jazz team, everyone is looking at Lin Han's request to see him, which makes Steve Smith very dissatisfied.

"Carl, John, don't worry, I will definitely not be nervous in the next game, I will only be excited!"

Therefore, the new No. 2 position of the Jazz team said with a smile on his face when he thought of the former No. 8 player of the Jazz team, he was very unhappy with Lin Han, and this is not only for these reasons, when he came to the Jazz team, he wanted to wear the No. 8 jersey, but in the end he encountered the opposition of the entire Utah Jazz team, in addition to the support of the two bosses of the team, the team's owners, general managers and coaches are all neutral, and the other old players of the team are almost all opposed, Even the matter was stabbed outside and known to the media and fans in Salt Lake City.

When he saw hundreds of fans surrounding the team's training gym and the team building, tens of thousands of fans came to the Delta Center to shout Lin Han's name and hold Lin Han's No. 8 jersey to express their dissatisfaction with him, the former Heat double-gun realized Lin Han's special status on this team.

In the eyes of Jazz fans and the media, the Jazz's No. 8 can be worn by no one except Lin Han!

And in the same way, at that time, Steve Smith also vowed that he must wear the No. 8 jersey that originally belonged to Lin Han in the Jazz team, and the first step in this must be to prove that he can do no worse than Lin Han!

In terms of strength, he knows that he is slightly inferior to Lin Han, but in the Jazz team, he knows very well that he can do what Lin Han can do!

Now Steve Smith is confident about tomorrow's opener against the Lakers, and Stockton and Malone on the other side are also pleased to see the team's newcomer do the same.

Smith wants to beat Lin Han, and so do they, as long as they don't beat Lin Han, they can't make the Jazz fans feel at ease and support them wholeheartedly, as long as they can't beat Lin Han, the Jazz will never forget Lin Han!

"John, I'm going to beat him tomorrow!"

Thinking of Lin Han, who was about to return to Salt Lake City here, Malone said to Stockton a little fiercely, and at this time Stockton also nodded with a smile.

"We'll do it!"

When Malone and Smith of the Jazz team were thinking about beating Lin Han, on the morning of November 2, when Lin Han got up early in the morning and was about to follow the team to Salt Lake City to play tonight's opener, Lin Han did not wash or eat breakfast first thing after getting up, but entered the system space with a small amount of dark circles.

"Ellie, I've decided, I'm going to gamble on this game!"

Looking at the string of character on his attribute panel, Lin Han gritted his teeth a little and said, and looking at Lin Han's expression, Aili didn't speak, she originally wanted to stop it, but at this time, she couldn't say these stopping words.

"Start with jazz, end with jazz, maybe that's not bad"

Looking at Lin Han, who was a little haggard because of insomnia at this time, Ellie sighed secretly in her heart. (To be continued......)
