Chapter 577: Your Home Is Gone
"It's crazy, it's completely crazy, why are you going to Cleveland? Really go to poverty alleviation? Damn, you really deserve an Ohio Medal of Honor for Targeted Poverty Alleviation! ”
At Li Liang's home in Los Angeles, Wei Dazhi had just tweeted the news of Li Liang's whereabouts, and then immediately turned off the mobile phone notification.
Because he knows that if he doesn't turn off the notification, the phone will "knock knock" like a machine gun in the future.
Li Liang immediately told Wei Dazhi the news that he was going to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and Wei Dazhi's first reaction was not ", there is big news again," but, "My friend, why are you dying?" “
Regardless of whether Wei Dazhi has become a professional reporter who smells shit everywhere, he is still a good friend of Li Liang after all, and he will always be on Li Liang's side, so he is really worried about Li Liang's never-before-seen career planning method.
Li Liang sat on the sofa and took a sip of coffee, and said, "Is my choice wrong?" ”
Li Liang's words stopped Wei Dazhi, not only did he not make a mistake, in just two years, he had already won the highest honor that a player could win, just one best defensive player.
Wei Dazhi estimated that after two more years, Li Liang should attack the best coach and the best manager.
"But, in that place in Cleveland, it really doesn't have to be moved. You see, the Lakers and Clippers before, the Lakers were a five-star team, and the Clippers were originally a playoff powerhouse, and you were like a tiger in the team. But the Cavaliers ...... What's the use of adding wings to a dog? Run fast after biting? ”
Wei Dazhi is still very worried, and his worry represents the mainstream view.
After Wei Dazhi sent this message, it was frantically forwarded, and not only the Chinese forum exploded, but also the American forum.
Is Li Liang going to Cleveland to save the knights from fire and water?
James struggled in this quagmire for seven years, and finally failed to get ahead, and chose to decide to leave the Cavaliers for the Heat and win the championship.
Li Liang doesn't believe in evil, he has to go to Dake Village, where James can't even take it.
Li Liang was still very calm and said: "I know, but you have to believe me, Jiren has his own natural appearance, and my choice will not be wrong." ”
Li Liang said that he was full of confidence, and there was only one reason - it came from a conversation he had after the fourth game of the finals.
Not a conversation with Ballmer.
The content of the conversation is very short:
"I was thinking, maybe we can play together."
"Oh, is it? If you want to become a U.S. citizen, you can consider it. ”
"Are you resistant to playing with me?"
"I'm looking forward to it, but I have my options and persistence."
"What if our choice was the same?"
“…… Good luck and congratulations. ”
This conversation is Li Liang's confidence in choosing Cleveland, and the person who is talking to him is none other than LeBron James.
After the fourth battle, James and Li Liang embraced, and Li Liang launched [Tim Duncan's Head Touch] to give James a little comfort, and by the way, his hairline moved back a little.
And then the two had this conversation.
LeBron James is sure that LeBron James will return to the Cavaliers in the summer of '14.
If he joins forces with James, what else does Li Liang have to worry about?
Huddle, you say?
He is my two defeated generals, what kind of group do I hold, I call it helping the backwards!
I am a college graduate with rich experience in tutoring high school students, and I will help another one is not nine out of ten.
In fact, not only Li Liang, throughout the 2013 season, many people were rumored that LeBron James would return to Cleveland to complete his unfinished business.
And James himself did think so.
After all, that decision in 2010 hurt a lot of people.
Although judging from a purely moral point of view, James is not sorry for anyone, he is not bad but he has changed places to work.
But in the NBA, or in the world of competitive sports, the moral value system is inherently different, even distorted.
Playing is no longer a job, but has been given a regional color by the intense competitiveness and exclusivity of competitive sports.
Two teams play each other, as if two countries are at war with two regions, and if you leave your home country, you are a traitor.
For role players, this kind of requirement for ordinary players is low or even none, but for stars, there are such requirements for quality players.
It is said that if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.
No way, in an alliance decided by a superstar, the superstar enjoys a lot, and must also bear a lot - only Li Liang is a magical exception.
First of all, he is a foreigner, so the regional plot of the United States does not exist in him.
Secondly, he is a second-round rogue in the league, and everyone, including Chinese fans, has nothing to expect from him, and it is great to survive in this league.
Every achievement he has achieved since then has been a breakthrough for him, not an expectation.
In the end, Li Liang succeeded, and it was an unparalleled success.
He is also luckier than James, playing for the championship team for the first two years, with a good squad and good places.
James is different, Cleveland is his hometown, but the Cavaliers' management, operations and lineup are really terrible, and the foundation is too poor.
Even if James can go to a team like the Pacers and Nuggets, he will not be without a championship in the first 7 years and have no hope.
So, some people try their best to go to Rome, and some people are born in Rome.
Of course, there are still those who, even though they are in Rome, are trying their best to go to the countryside.
After Li Liang made this decision, the local fan forum in Cleveland blew up all at once.
Many American fans praised Li Liang's "internationalist spirit," and the people of Cleveland gladly accepted this "international aid" from China.
The official website of the Cavaliers responded very quickly, and has put Li Liang's photo P on the Cavaliers' jersey and put it in the most conspicuous position.
David Griffin, the general manager of the Cavaliers, immediately contacted Zhu Shu by phone to confirm the authenticity of the news.
Griffin just wanted to be on the safe side, because everyone knew that Wei Dazhi was Li Liang's official spokesperson, and his remarks on Twitter were Li Liang's.
Unlike some players, a source on the left and an insider on the right, all of them say contradictory things, which makes everyone confused.
Li Liang has been clear and clear since he entered the alliance, I am just a spokesperson, and what other reporters say is not counted, so there are very few kinds of nonsense news about Li Liang, because everyone knows that other sources are all made up.
After getting a positive answer from Zhu Shu's mouth, Griffin was excited.
Originally, Griffin had been working hard to clean up his contract and leave room to sign James back this summer.
As a result, James hasn't made a decision yet2, and Li Liang has already come back first!
Fortunately, Li Liang's special situation makes his salary contract not large, and the current space of the knights is enough to sign Li Liang and James!
Li Liang teamed up with James, in the Cavaliers, what an exciting combination?
They had just met in the Finals, and although James' team suffered a heavy defeat, their individual performance was not bad at all.
Now Griffin's only concern is whether James will choose to return to the Cavaliers after Li Liang decides to join the Cavaliers?
After all, James was supposed to go home, but as a result - the home was gone, and someone stole it!
Well, it's not stealing, actually.
It's just that Li Liang's joining will make James return to the Cavaliers' charisma, and the legend will be reduced a lot.
Originally, James returned to the knight as a wanderer returning home, and came back to save the knight from the dire situation.
Now that Li Liang arrived first, no matter what James thought earlier, it will inevitably be interpreted as "go home and hug your thighs." ”
When the Cavaliers didn't have good players, you went to the Big Three of the Heat, and now that the Finals beat you twice in a row, you ran home to "save"?
If James doesn't return to the Cavaliers, it's even more hilarious, "We don't need you anymore, LeBron"!
Griffin could imagine how the people of Cleveland would treat him.
As a mature professional manager, Griffin is very excited about Li Liang's arrival, but he still hopes that James can come back.
Not only because of the increase in combat power and commercial value brought by the combination of the two swords, but also because Griffin knew that if James returned, he would stay for at least four years.
And Li Liang, it is estimated that he will stay for a year at most.
This prodigal son, maybe he really doesn't need a home.
Or maybe it's his home.
Thinking of this, Griffin picked up the phone and dialed Rich Paul's number.
