(2nd Update)

At 8 o'clock in the evening on November 18, 1994, the stands of the Toyota Center, the home of the Los Angeles Clippers, were full of fans wearing Lakers jerseys.

At the beginning, Sterling moved the team to Los Angeles to make money, and the Clippers in San Diego almost lost money every year, and the boss needed to post money every year, generally speaking, in the NBA, after the salary cap system came out, as long as the team's total annual salary can be controlled within the salary cap, then it is basically impossible to lose money, but at that time, where was the salary cap system, the salary cap system was implemented after the Clippers came to Los Angeles, in that era when there was no salary cap system, although the players' salaries were not very high, But most of the teams in the league are actually the target salary, and in this case, if the target teams are a small city, even a medium-sized city, it is definitely a loss.

Not to mention the era when there was no salary cap, even in this era with a salary cap, the league's salary cap last season was 15oo, as long as everyone's annual salary was controlled within 15oo, then there would definitely be no loss, but in fact, last season, the entire 27 teams in the league, there are only a few teams that really control the annual salary below 15ooo, such as the league's poorest teams Dallas Mavericks and Milwaukee Bucks, the Mavericks are really out of money, and the Bucks are the team rebuildingDallas is a big city, but the ball market here is too small. Even the Minnesota Timberwolves, the league's most picky team, have a total salary of more than the salary cap.

There's no way around it, the league can't keep up with the growing wage demands of the players. Even any rookie dares to shout a 100 million contract, and it is almost impossible for such a league to have a team without a salary cap. Maybe when the league signs a new broadcast deal and can make a lot of money, the league's salary cap will pay most of the team's total salary.

So, don't look at the NBA is getting more and more popular now, but in fact, most teams are losing money, which is indeed true, and the players also know that this is also a lot of old players in the league. Especially one of the reasons why the old players who have feelings for the team are very unhappy with those young people, now most of the teams in the league are really bosses who are sticking money to come in to play, if they meet some bosses who have no money, but are very emotional, and hope that the team's results can come up, they are really likely to sell the team at a low price and sell it to rich people, such as the owners of the Jazz team have had such thoughts more than once, but there are no people who are willing to promise to stay in Salt Lake City after buying the team, so they can't sell if they want to.

And Sterling, the owner of the Clippers, is known by many as the league's toughest man. This is really misleading him, he is very picky, yes, but he is really not an iron rooster like the Timberwolves boss. This is a complete profiteer, and this guy also knows that his team came to Los Angeles, and for Los Angeles fans, they are used to seeing the Lakers' gorgeousness, and let them like a country team like the Clippers? That's impossible, if you want to make money, you need to invest money first, and this is the same everywhere. Raheem Sterling is a complete profiteer, and he knows that better than anyone else. In this case, the Clippers' salary was almost at the top of the NBA last season. The annual salary is over 2ooo million US dollars, which is a little less than the NBA's major giants, and other Jazz, Rockets, Spurs and other strong teams are all inferior to them, in this case, it is difficult for you to say that Sterling is picking.

After this team came to Los Angeles, he has been losing for 1o years in a row, so it is really inhumane to be said to be picked, if Sterling's table is like he was ten years before he came to Los Angeles, then no one will say about him, but this guy in the middle of last season, threw the team's general manager Elgin Baylor directly aside, and successively traded the team's boss Manning, the second Harper and the third Mark Jackson. It's just to save money that he is treated as a picker, and as for the Toyota Center that moved the team directly from the city to the suburbs this season just to save some venue fees, this guy is no longer synonymous with picking doors but synonymous with 2B.

In fact, he did pick the door, but it was definitely not a dead door, as long as he felt that it was profitable, he was really willing to spend money, but when he spent 1o years in a row, and finally his team was still like a junior in Los Angeles, and even the Lakers' hair was not as good as that, it still cost a fart money, after all, the last few years have been the trough of the Lakers, but the Clippers have still not been able to come out of the shadow of the Lakers, he knows that the current Lakers, even if they are at the bottom every year, are not something that the Clippers can shake, The foundation that the Magic has laid for this team is simply terrifying.

Unless the Lakers underestimate it again in the future, and the team lacks a star with absolute influence, let him see the hope of the Clippers and the Lakers again, I'm afraid he will continue to invest money, so when this team has no hope in his opinion, he can really do anything, even if others scold him, he won't care, because he only has interests in his eyes, this is different from the Timberwolves owner's picking, the Timberwolves' picking, that is, regardless of whether the team has hope or not, anyway, he doesn't pay, There are so many hopes for the team, and there are so many hopes, so the owner of the Timberwolves can't do the kind of thing that Sterling is crazy about trading the team's bosses, second and third in order to save money, but he also can't do the madness of Sterling burning money vigorously for a little hope.

In general, what Sterling does is often very easy to remember, too extreme, and it is not strange for such an extreme person, or someone who lives in his own world and only sees himself and his interests, to do something that seems unbelievable or even unbelievable to ordinary people, because this is his style!

But even if he is such an extreme and bizarre person, when he sees that his team's home court is playing against the Lakers, the sound is still cheering for the Lakers, and the Clippers owner's face is still very ugly.

"Jerry, I don't like that Chinese guy very much. I don't like it very much! ”

When the Lakers players took the lead as players playing on the road, enjoying much more cheers than when the Clippers played at home before, Sterling looked at the Chinese kid of the Lakers. The indignation on his face was indescribable.

Similarly, Lakers owner Jerry Buss, who was sitting next to Sterling at this time, did not look very good at this time. But there is no bitter hatred that Sterling has for Lin Han, Bass knows that his good friend is a racist, as a white American born before the 5o years, there are few who do not have racist thoughts, this is a very normal thing, even if he himself is more or less a little, but some people are not willing to show it, or like old Bass, he doesn't care about race at all.

And Sterling clearly belongs to the group of people who came out of the table. And it's a group of crazy people, when I think of this, Bass regrets a little that he instigated his good friend to enter the NBA, this incident is torture for him, let him manage this group of people he doesn't like at all, it's just that even if Sterling wants to quit now, it's too late, in the past ten years, he has lost at least tens of millions for the Clippers, plus inflation. With his mercenary character, he has invested so much money in the past ten years and 66 years, and he has not made a dozen times as much. How could he possibly make a move? For an excellent investor, earning 1o times in 1o years is not much, right? It's just that in this Clippers, who is so stupid to spend three or four hundred million to buy the current team?

Therefore, with Bass's understanding of his good friend, this guy will never sell the Clippers, even if he does not have the slightest affection for the Clippers, he does not have the slightest affection for the team's players, and sometimes being too greedy is also a pain, and this is why Jerry Buss has always been very indulgent and even indulgent to him. Because Sterling's pain was brought by him.

"Donald, I think you'd better be a little more restrained. Otherwise, it will hurt you sooner or later."

Jerebus said with a frown as he saw Lin Han in the middle of the stadium enjoying the cheers of the Los Angeles fans in the stadium. Recently, Sterling and Jordan's verbal fight and his running and bombing of Lin Han are clear to him, and even Sterling may have the intention of giving him anger, as a good friend, Bath has never hidden his dislike for Lin Han, but he also doesn't like his friend to be deeply involved in racial problems, but Bath has talked to Sterling more than once about this, but Sterling has never heard of it.

"Jerry, you guy is good at everything, but you are too depressed and think too much, don't you think your life is too boring?"

It's just that after each reminder, Jerebus will be taught a lesson by Sterling in turn, which makes Old Bass a little speechless, so he just doesn't speak.

Speaking of which, this game is the first time he came to watch the Lakers game this season, and the first time he came to see the Lakers' game on the spot was not his home court, Old Bass was also a little helpless when he thought of this, I have to say that when Lin Han came to the team, he now has his feelings for this Laker are a little too complicated, maybe just like Sterling imagined, some things he does think too much, so, when he thinks of this, Old Bass looks at the end of the warm-up on the court, The Lakers' No. 24, who has already stood in the center of the court to prepare for the game, is also a little bitter.

"There are some changes in this game between the Lakers and the previous games, the center player is Lin Han, Lin Han will play the center position in this game, and the power forward position is Aaron Williams, the small forward is Dominic Wilkins, the scoring guard is Eddie Jones, and the playmaking guard is Van Axel, Van Axel appeared in the position again after being replaced by Eddie Jones, I don't know what the Lakers' extremely bad guard this season will be like in this game"

"The Clippers are still the same as before, the center is Elmore Spencer, the power forward is Loy Water, the small forward is Tony Massenberg, the scoring guard is Trieder, and the playmaking guard is Poole Richard."

In addition to Poole Richardson and Loy Water, the other five players of the Clippers are basically afraid that many NBA fans in the United States and even fans in Los Angeles have not heard of it, Masenberg did not mix in the NBA last season, the second-round rookie in 9O, completely said goodbye to the NBA in 91, and was not re-signed by the Clippers until this season. As for Tridee, last season's rookie, he averaged 5 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist per game last season. As for center Spencer, the Spencer of the Clippers is 108,000 miles worse than the Spencer before the Jazz. Although the Spencer of the Jazz team was not good, he was also one of the worst in the NBA, but if this guy was on other worst teams, I am afraid he would not even be able to play on the bench, and even the team's two strongest organizational guards, Poole Richardson, was almost abolished by Larry Brown in the Pacers last season. A small guard with a lot of offensive desire, but the defensive and offensive efficiency is simply a mess, suitable for a good number of jù in the fish belly team, but not suitable for any playoff team, and Loeuywater, the Clippers power forward, is the team's really strongest player, can attack, can grab rebounds, although the defense is average, but not that bad. He is averaging 16 points and 1o rebounds per game at his current position this season, a very good young interior player, and he is also the only player on the Clippers who can pose a threat to the Lakers.

Such a team. In the current NBA season nine consecutive defeats, ranking first in the league is not surprising, this season the Clippers can win more than 1o games is basically a success, if there is really any team unlucky to lose to the Clippers this season, I am afraid it will really be hacked.

So, even if the Lakers are not in a good situation right now, they are still 108,000 miles better than the Clippers.

"Aaron Williams jumped the ball, the Los Angeles Lakers won the first ball of the game, Van Axel received Eddie Jones' over, the Lakers are going to attack"

When Van Axel, who was the point guard in this game, dribbled the ball to the front court. For a while, he was directly confused, because he had not organized the team's offense as a point guard since the beginning of this season. In fact, the Lakers don't have any tactics at all. Van Axel, who came to the half court for a while, didn't know what to do at all, if Lin Han was on the outside before, he would have handed the ball to Lin Han's hands and stood to a point, but at this time Lin Han had already stood under the basket, even if he wanted to pass the ball, he couldn't do it, as for the other Lakers players, as long as he saw Aaron Williams, who was completely let go of the waist position under the basket at this time, and Dominic Wilkins who stood motionless, he was speechless for a while, Will Wilkins really move and run when Lynnham is in possession of the ball, as for the others? This old cancer all has an expression of indebtedness, and the only receiving point on the outside, Eddie Jones?

To be honest, Van Axel really doesn't want to pass the ball to him, although there is nothing bad about him and Jones because of Lin Han's relationship, but it is a fact that Jones takes his place, and it is also a fact that this kid is more suitable for Lin Han, and it is also a fact that his running defense is not as good as Jones, but if he even organizes an attack and he has to pass the ball to Jones, how should he, the point guard, mix in the team in the future?

Thinking of the matter of avenging him in this game agreed with Lin Han before the start of today's game, and then seeing the miserable situation of standing still and motionless at this time, if the previous Van Axel would have been thrown away so much, but he can't do it now, he can hurt anyone for himself, including his own team, as long as he can gain a foothold in the NBA, it is worth it, so he came out of the way last season, and even got the title of a madman, but now, When his friend Lin Han came to the team, his position was already extremely stable, so he couldn't do that kind of crazy thing anymore, at least he couldn't hurt the team and hurt Lin Han anymore, because when Lin Han came to the team, he unabashedly said that what he wanted was the championship, and his crazy style of play last season was not the style of play that an important player of a championship team should have, he didn't have Lin Han's strong personal ability, Lin Han could play in the Jazz, he couldn't play in the Lakers, If the boss of the Lakers was not Lin Han at this time, he would not be so wronged by himself, but it just so happens that the boss of the Lakers is his friend, a very good friend, and in the entire NBA, only Hardaway and Lin Han can make Van Axel not want to do something sorry for them!

I have to say that although Van Excel is a cancer, not all tumors are defective in personality, the cancer is the style of the ball and not the character, Van Excel is like this, and this is the reason why he is extremely entangled and struggling this season. How could it be easy to change his style of play that has lasted for more than a decade?

"Hahaha, Jerry. This point guard on your team is so much fun, hahaha. It's so funny, it's just silly and cute, hahaha! ”

When Van Axel, who hadn't been in possession of the ball for a long time, was sweating profusely in place with the ball, even Richardson, who was defending him, was dumbfounded at this time, and forgot to steal for a while, thinking that Van Axel was lonely, forcing him to steal and then pass him, and the Lakers fans on the sidelines were also in an uproar. Even the Clippers owner Sterling on the sidelines has laughed wildly, and Old Buss's face is a little not so good-looking at this time, if he doesn't like Lin Han's style of play, then Van Axel doesn't like it even more, but this is also a player selected by Jerry West, even if he doesn't like it, there is no way.

It's just that he lost such a person in front of his friends, and Old Bas was also a little unhappy.

At this time, the Lakers players on the court and Van Excel did not have much tacit understanding, and when they didn't know what to do for a while, Lin Han, who was standing under the basket, glanced at his friend who was almost nervous and trembling at this time, and he also reluctantly pulled out from the inside, ready to play a simple block with Van Excel.

And when Lin Han pulled out on the inside and played a block with Van Axel. Van Axel seemed to be saved, handed over the basketball in his hand to Lin Han at the three-point line at the top of the arc, and walked away with a sigh of relief, at this time the Lakers only had 8 seconds left to attack this time. I have to say that Van Axel did waste a lot of time.

"Lin finally came out to catch the ball, this Laker now except for Lin, everyone else has the ball is simply terrifying, when will Magic come back?"

When the Lakers fans on the scene saw Lin Han's result and breathe a sigh of relief when it reached the court, Van Axel, who was a little depressed at this time, lowered his head almost with a dead gray face and trembling all over his body after hearing such a voice.

"Lin, past him, directly past him!"

And as a Clippers player who defended Lin Han. At this time, the Clippers' center Spencer and point guard Richardson saw Lin Han who was dribbling in place with the ball in his hand, and both of them trembled a little all over their bodies.

Recent times. The owner of the Clippers is unabashed, but as a player of the Clippers. They are really frightened, is Lin Han's murderous reputation comparable to ordinary people? What would they do if this guy picked up the plane to take revenge in this game? Therefore, when Lin Han chose to play inside and play center in this game, Si Bing, who was originally a little gloating for his teammates, almost came on the court with shaking feet after getting such a result, Ewing who was made by Lin Han not long ago is still being treated by a psychiatrist in the psychiatric department, even Ewing is like that, what can he do?

Therefore, every dribble that Lin Han made in place was almost like a hammer constantly beating Scyuse's heart, for fear that the Lakers player would fly directly over his head.

And Richardson, who was standing next to Si Bingsai and ready to wrap up Lin Han at any time, was not much better at this time, especially when he heard the cheers of the Lakers fans at the scene, he was most afraid that Lin Han would come up and run him over directly.

"What?!"

It's just that the Lakers fans and the players of the two teams on the court were very surprised that Lin Han, who had been dribbling the ball in place and dribbling for almost five seconds, actually passed the basketball in his hand directly at the top of the arc to the hands of Van Axel, who had collapsed a little, and when Van Axel received Lin Han's whistle cross, the Lakers point guard was directly stunned, looked at the basketball in his hand in disbelief, and when he saw that the time was about to expire, he directly shot three points unguarded.

With a bang, when Van Excel's whistle-blowing shot smashed directly into the basket and missed, the entire Toyota Center was silent, and all the players on the court looked at Lin Han and Van Excel in disbelief.

"Nee, Nick is going to be out of luck in this game"

As Lin Han's younger brother and former Jazz teammate, Aaron Williams was in a cold sweat when he looked at Van Axel at this time.

Lin Han who plays horizontal passes is really terrible, especially when he doesn't stick to the ball! (To be continued) R655
