In fact, in Lu Fei's memory, Yao Ming had the opportunity to go to the Lakers, especially after the end of the 2004-2005 season, which was the last year of Yao Ming's rookie season.

This season, Yao Ming has been able to contribute an average of 18.3 points + 8.4 rebounds per game, which is comparable to the top interior players in the league at that time.

O'Neal's departure has deprived the Lakers of a pillar on the inside, and the Lakers have a traditional interior player complex and urgently need an inside fish to revitalize the Lakers' interior.

At that time, Yao Ming became the most suitable candidate, Yao Ming's super high ball quotient and flexible body style, with the Zen master's triangle attack, and even Kobe Bryant personally came forward to lobby Yao Ming at that time.

But after Yao Ming thought about it again, he chose Houston's five-year 75 million contract.

There are three reasons for this.

First: Chinese pay attention to kindness must be repaid, there is revenge must be repaid, there is no revenge here, there is grace must be repaid, Yao Ming as a yellow basketball player, the whole league was not optimistic about the little giant Yao Ming at the beginning, but Houston resolutely selected Yao Ming with a champion signing, rookie season, Yao Ming who first entered the league was treated a lot of unfairly, but the whole Rockets team took good care of Yao Ming, and the boss Francis came out for Yao Ming, Yao Ming chose to end up Houston in order to thank Houston.

Second, in the summer of 2004, the Rockets signed the second superstar Tracy McGrady, at that time, Maddie was not inferior to Kobe Bryant at all, look at the talent, Maddie is better than Kobe, and the two are also on par with each other, Yao Ming chose the more modest Maddie between Kobe and Maddy, and the two tried to create great things for Houston.

Thirdly, and the easiest, Yao Ming has been living in Houston for three years, his own family has become accustomed to life in Houston, and his family has already taken root here, staying in Houston is undoubtedly the best choice.

But at that time, Yao Ming rejected the Lakers in the league, and for the Lakers' head coach Zen master Phil Jackson, it was a completely incomprehensible thing, he revealed in a show: I was very surprised, I really can't understand what Yao Ming thinks, because he rejected me, rejected Kobe, and refused the championship in front of him.

These are all future development trajectories, but in the current Lu Fei's view, his emergence has changed the pattern of the NBA.

Rasheed Wallace didn't go to the Pistons, so can the Pistons still win against the Pacers in the Eastern Conference Finals?

Whether it is the Pistons without Rasheed Wallace or the Pacers of the year, can they beat the Lakers to win the championship in the end?

Whether O'Neal will continue to travel east, whether the Lakers will continue to support Kobe, everything has become unknown.

But Lu Fei knows that the contradictions between Kobe and O'Neal have reached the point of irreconcilability, and whether they win the championship or not this season, they will inevitably face disintegration.

Yao Ming's relationship with Team Rocket is also a little different from the situation in Lu Fei's memory.

Yao Ming is no longer the Yao Ming who chose to gain weight at the behest of coach Van Gundy, he chose another path as a player, which also led to a rift between Yao Ming and Van Gundy and the management of the Rockets.

And this suspicion will be the fuse for him to leave the rocket.

Even if Maddie and Kobe Bryant have the same talent, when the coach's style of play is no longer suitable for the player, the player will definitely choose to leave and choose a coach and team that is more suitable for him.

Lu Fei knows that if Yao Ming really joins forces with Kobe next year, it will be a more terrifying combination than Kobe + Gasol, and at this time, both Yao Ming and Kobe are at their peak, but I am afraid that other teams will really have to ask them if they agree if they agree if they want to break out of the West in the future.

Lu Fei sighed: This is really digging a pit for himself to jump......

But so what?

His life has been opened, he has a tactical concept that is more than ten years ahead of this era, he has a clear understanding of the growth of future players, and he is more aware of the future changes in the rules of the league.

If you still win the championship according to the original trajectory, then the content of this championship is really mixed with water.

Now it seems that the difficulty has escalated......

Well, it's catastrophic.

It is estimated that in the next few years, any team that can break out of the Lakers' encirclement may be able to directly award a championship trophy.

But...... What if there is a chance this year and next year?

Steal one before Kobe and Yao Ming join forces?

Besides, the above is just his own imagination, maybe the two of them didn't join forces?

However, Lu Fei was quite looking forward to them joining forces, after all, Yao Ming's nine-year career was too short, and the honor of his nine-year career was too little.

In the afternoon, in the hotel where the Rockets are located, Van Gundy gathered the players together to do the pregame setup.

Van Gundy put down the remote control in his hand, rubbed his aching temples, and then picked up the remote control again to rewind the picture to the moment when Lu Fei passed the ball, Lu Fei's bright eyes and slightly upturned mouth gave people an inexplicable attraction.

"Lu Fei is a MOP player in the NCAA last year, we have played him this year, he is a terrible opponent, he is a cool head as a playmaker, he shoots accurately, and his breakthrough ability is terrifying, Gary Payton praised him as one of the sharpest breaking guards in the last decade......"

"Hey, Jeff......" Francis interrupted Van Gundy, "I don't think you have to worry about my defense, I think we should be talking more about whether or not to use Don Nelson's style of play." ”

Van Gundy's brow furrowed imperceptibly.

He hated the way Francis talked to him, and he hated that Francis liked to talk to him about other coaches' tactics.

He thinks there is nothing wrong with his tactical style of play, and he advocates defensive supremacy, but the team's star Francis, who seems to prefer offense, and Yao Ming's demand for him to gain weight is even more flattering.

This made him feel very unpresent in the team, but general manager Dawson has promised him that he will make changes to the team at the end of the season, and although he has not said it thoroughly, Van Gundy understands that the team is ready to make a move on the star of the house.

"Don Nelson's tactics?" Van Gundy's voice became much lower, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The SuperSonics have won eight in a row, will anyone still think Don Nelson's method works?" Defensively, I think I'm going to do better than Nelson, and I think it's important that we cut off the connection between Lu Fei and his teammates...... Yao, you and Lu Fei are teammates in the national team, can you introduce Lu Fei to everyone? ”

Yao Ming, who was named, was stunned, when he just saw the video of Lu Fei's game, the picture of chatting with Lu Fei yesterday somehow popped up in his mind.

Maybe...... He was right, Van Gundy was too stubborn to expect him to change, so only he could change.

"Yao?"

"Oh, do you mean Lu Fei?" A smile appeared at the corner of Yao Ming's mouth: "I don't think Lu Fei will fight according to the tactics you ...... see."

No one noticed that Yao Ming was talking about you, not us.
