Chapter Seventy-Nine: Flag

As soon as Li Liang's words came out, there was obviously a small commotion at the scene.

The reporters all showed knowing smiles on their faces, hehehe, it was coming.

And Jim Bass and Kupchak both looked at Li Liang, what did this kid want to say?

Ryan West, who was sitting below, held his forehead, this guy Lee, will never let people stop?

Wei Dazhi, who was taking pictures in the back row, raised his camera and voice recorder, he wanted to hear what Li Liang wanted to say.

And Zhu Shu was a little worried in her heart, just after signing the contract, did Li Liang want to criticize the team?

"Everybody knows that I'm a guy who didn't play well in the NCAA, the stats were a mess, and I just followed the team to a championship bench. From past experience, I don't qualify for the NBA at all, and if any team chooses me, it means that their management... I should be blind. ”

After Li Liang installed [Bob Knight's hair dryer], he felt that his body was full of desire to complain.

The feeling came out, and the tone of his voice was not the same as usual.

Li Liang usually speaks like an ordinary young man, brisk and natural.

And when he said these words, he was like a basketball old-timer, condescending and pointing.

The point is, everyone doesn't seem to feel any sense of disobedience.

Everyone listened as he continued.

"So I say the Lakers' management made a mistake, they didn't play their cards according to common sense, they didn't take their draft pick seriously, as they did in the past."

Li Liang said word by word, sweating slightly on his anxious head.

Damn, I've already criticized it, the system will prompt me that the task is complete!

The mission is done, I can say the "but", but the "but" is the point.

Finally, another line of words appeared in front of Li Liang's eyes: [Mission completed, achievement obtained: Los Angeles Mouth Brother, reward: special items, Bill Simmons' history book. 】

Wo Ri! Lao Tzu took the risk of spraying the management on the first day of signing, and the reward was just such a thing?

As soon as Li Liang looked at this "history book", he knew that it was the same as the ball blind discerner, and it was also a toy.

Although the ball blind examiner is quite fun, it is really useless.

And this history book is probably not as good as the ball blind appraiser.

Li Liang scolded the system a hundred times more in his heart.

Then he has to round out what he said.

But that summer 16 years ago, the Los Angeles Lakers also made a decision that seemed wrong. They traded their All-Star center for a pick in the draft and took a young man who also didn't have any performance or stats in the NCAA. The man who made that decision was called Jerry West, and then the Angelenos won 5 championships. This time, it was still a Lakers guy named West who made the wrong decision, and I hope it will eventually prove that it was not a mistake. ”

After completing the task, Li Liang finally finished the words behind "but", and then breathed a long sigh of relief.

Li Liang hurriedly took back the "hair dryer" and put a cannon into the air, which was a little comfortable and a little apprehensive.

And the reporters were all stunned.

Anyone who has passed the fourth level of English can hear it, and Li Liang is not criticizing the Lakers management.

He praised the Lakers management for making the right and rewarding decision.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with such a boast, but the problem is that Li Liang compares himself to Kobe, but this is a bit wrong!

Li Liang is right, Kobe Bryant, like him, has no performance and data in the NCAA.

But the problem is that Kobe Bryant entered the NBA as a high school student, not in the NCAA!

Your old man played in the NCAA for four years, sat on the water cooler for four years, and mixed up a championship.

Can this be the same?

also compared himself to Kobe, and pulled out Ryan West by the way.

Ryan West sat down below, already covering his face, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

"So when are you going to bring a championship trophy to the Lakers?" Kevin Ding asked again.

After asking this question, the reporters in the audience laughed.

This kind of question is something that even a super rookie like LeBron James would not dare to take on.

The most they can say is, "I'm going to bring a championship to the team." ”

Whether it will be brought in the future or not, it's hard to say.

And for a second-round show like Li Liang, the first priority for entering the league is to survive.

Win the championship?

You're thinking too much.

Li Liang's task has been completed, and at this time he can make a haha, and fool around with an official tone.

Today's young NBA players are becoming more and more official.

can see a bunch of reporters in the audience, looking like they want to dig something from him, Li conscience.

He held out three fingers and said, "Three, three years I'm going to bring a championship to Los Angeles." ”

Off the stage, Ryan West buried his head deeper.

This kid's way is too shallow, so he became a reporter.

Zhu Shu still looked worried about Li Liang.

And Wei Dazhi, who had no conscience, was excited, because he knew that there was something to be done.

is worthy of being an unscrupulous reporter, and his six relatives do not recognize him.

Jim Bass and Kupchak looked at Li Liang like fools.

Where did this TM come from?

Jim Bass couldn't wait to pull West on stage right now, pointing at his nose and asking, "This is who you chosen?" ”

Although Li Liang's previous remarks were somewhat exaggerated and controversial, they showed that Li Liang's speech was level.

But when it comes to winning the championship, it's different, it's a flag.

There are countless people who have set the flag in the history of the NBA, and if you can succeed, you will "go down in history".

If you fail, you will be lucky enough to be forgotten, and the worst thing is to be taken out and whipped.

Especially the flag related to the championship, can this be set up casually?

And the most famous flag of the championship is none other than Moses Malone's "FO-FO-FO".

Although it was one less than one game in the end, it was great enough to be remembered forever.

At that time, it was the Lakers who were swept in the Finals.

There is also a championship flag in the history of the Lakers, and that is Pat Riley in 1987.

After the Lakers won that year's championship, at the celebration parade, Riley declared that they would successfully defend their title next year.

That's a big flag, because no team in the NBA has been able to defend the title since the Boston Empire ended in 1969.

As a result, the Lakers in 1988 did it, and the process was extremely difficult.

It was a success and left a wonderful page in history.

And what about it?

Not one, not two, not three, not four...... There are many, many of them anyway.

The most famous of these is the Los Angeles Lakers.

In 1969, Game 7 of the Finals, the Celtics vs. the Lakers.

Lakers owner Tim Cook is convinced that the team can beat the Celtics in the tiebreaker to win the title.

So a lot of balloons were laid out at the team's home stadium to float the balloons to the ceiling the moment they were ready to win the championship.

A super-large balloon flag was erected.

As a result, Russell famously said, "Anything is possible, except for the Lakers' victory over the Celtics." ”

Then the Lakers lost by 2 points, and none of the balloons were released, and the scene was extremely embarrassing.

In the end, the balloons were given to the orphanage.

In the NBA, many stars who once threatened to bring championships to the team will not even be able to enter the finals in their lifetime.

They're still stars, they're leaders of a team.

It is reasonable to think that the championship should be the goal.

So even if the flag is not realized, the fans will not blame it too much.

But like Li Liang, a second-round show who didn't play, dare to boast that he will win the championship in three years?

These journalists, who are well versed in the way of public opinion, can already predict what kind of waves these remarks will stir up on the Internet.

In addition, Li Liang threatened to win the championship at the draft conference before, and it is estimated that there will be endless stalks about him.

It's a treasure.

This guy is really different from the previous Chinese players.

Yao Ming is humble and humorous, Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian are more silent, Sun Yue and Battle... Well, a lot of American fans don't have much of an impression of them.

After saying these words, Thackeray, who was sitting next to Li Liang, secretly came over and said, "You really dare to say it, it's amazing." ”

Li Liang's heart was still a little abrupt, and he knew that this kind of big talk would definitely cause controversy.

But I have said everything, and I have no regrets.

In order to realize this Flag, Li Liang will definitely redouble his efforts.

Otherwise, I will always be dragged out and whipped in the future, which is not a good feeling.

But three years... Is three years too long?

Damn, I knew I should have said two years... No, one year is best.

Anyway, it's all bragging, no matter how you blow it, it's blowing.
