Wei Dazhi finally got out of the predicament with a piece of news that he guessed, then hurriedly took a shower, ate something casually, and drove downstairs to the Lakers' headquarters to meet Jerry Buss, and the two made an appointment to have lunch together.

In the two years since Li Liang left, the Lakers and Bass have had a hard time.

They won the championship in 2013 and the five-star Lakers reached their peak, and Jerry Buss took the opportunity to solidify his position on the team, overtaking his sister Jeanie Buss.

But in 2014 and '15, the Lakers failed to make the playoffs.

Especially in 2015, they once rushed to a high position, but their results collapsed in the late season (the author forgot) and fell directly out of the top eight in the West, one of the important reasons is that the contradiction between Kobe and Howard is getting deeper and deeper.

Unfortunately, these two men's salaries are almost taking up space in the team and not having good chemistry, which is the worst thing that can happen.

To make matters worse, although Kobe Bryant's condition is acceptable, a major Achilles tendon injury, coupled with age, makes it impossible for him to return to the top. And Howard, after 2013, was also plagued by various injuries and could not become the monster he once was.

In 2015 he had to lose weight to maintain his fitness, and as a result, he was much less powerful on both ends of the pitch and missed a lot of games at the end of the season with a back injury.

The Lakers have reached the stage of selection again, and it would be great if they could welcome Li Liang back at this time.

Buzz did have such thoughts, so he wanted to talk to Li Liang's friend Wei Dazhi to find out.

Now that Li Liang is not in the United States, his agent is not there, and no one can contact him, Wei Dazhi has of course become a sweetheart.

Bass made an appointment at a high-end restaurant near his headquarters, along with Magic Johnson and general manager Kupchak.

This battle is really not small, there is no way, Wei Dazhi is Li Liang's royal spokesman, everyone is sure that Wei Dazhi has a decisive right to make suggestions to Li Liang.

In fact, Wei Dazhi knew in his heart that he had the right to suggest a fart.

Although the relationship between the two is good, Li Liang is a very assertive person, and he will not listen to other people's opinions at all.

If he would have followed the advice of others, he would not have left the Lakers to go to the Clippers, nor would he have left the Clippers to go to the Cavaliers, and then jumped from the Cavaliers to the Pacers, he would simply be an arbitrary loner prodigal.

Wei Dazhi has a strong number in his heart, so he will not swell with a little fame, and feel that he is a good friend of Li Liang, so he can point fingers at him.

He's not that stupid, he knows who he is getting to where he is today.

And he wished that Li Liang would run around a few times, if Li Liang didn't run around, where would his social media get attention?

Once a year, the third season of this year, and the fourth season next year, such a big drama is unprecedented in the history of the NBA.

Because of this, Wei Dazhi came to eat with the Lakers management this time, purely to rub rice.

After arriving at the place, seeing Buzz and the others, Wei Dazhi lost the excitement and nervousness of seeing idols in the past.

Like Magic Johnson, Wei Dazhi couldn't call his father-in-law when he saw it?

A few people greeted each other, this is a relatively high-end Chinese restaurant, Xiao Ba is quite particular, let the food be served.

Generally speaking, Chinese, Italians, Greeks and other southern Europeans will prefer to discuss things at the dinner table.

And the Anglo-Saxons of England and France, they prefer large drinking parties and parties, and eating is generally eating.

Little Bass invited Wei Dazhi to dinner, obviously respecting Wei Dazhi's customs, on the one hand, it shows that Wei Dazhi is really quite good, and on the other hand, because of the existence of Li Liang, the status of Chinese in the NBA has really improved a lot.

After chatting a few words, Bass got to the point, and he didn't go around the corner, and said directly: "Does Bruce have any plans to return to Los Angeles this summer?" ”

Wei Dazhi replied very simply, "I don't know." ”

However, he added: "No one can guess what Bruce thinks, and no one can think of him when he leaves the Lakers, right? ”

"But he said he would come back." Johnson said.

"But he didn't say when he would be back." Wei Dazhi took a sip of the wine in the glass and replied.

"Truth be told, we'd love to see him come back, if we can... You can give him some advice, and then, we can have more cooperation. Bass was blunt and put forward the conditions.

For any journalist, the team's news resources are important, especially for a high-profile giant like the Lakers.

Wei Dazhi's face did not change, he knew in his heart that his biggest resource was Li Liang, not anything else, thinking of interfering with Li Liang's thoughts for the sake of the Lakers' resources? He's not an idiot.

Of course, words can't be said to death, Wei Dazhi said: "Generally speaking, if Bruce has any ideas, he will reveal some to me, maybe I can give you some references." Moreover, Bruce now has a contract, the Lakers don't have the space, he has to trade if he wants to come, and you should see if you have the chips in your hands to impress Indiana and Larry Bird. ”

Wei Dazhi's words made a lot of sense, and the magician said, "I'll contact Larry, but the chips are ......."

If Li Liang is to be replaced, it means that Wiggins will definitely be sent away.

Judging from Wiggins' performance in his first season, the talent is indeed at the top level, but it is indeed too much worse than Li Liang.

One champion sign, one is only No. 56 sign, why is the gap so big?

Bass and Johnson tried again, but Wei Dazhi never gave clear information, and he couldn't give it, he really couldn't be sure.

Kupchak had been talking very little, he had been listening, and as a manager, he was more experienced than Bass and Magic.

After eating, Wei Dazhi politely declined Bass's invitation to play golf, he was tired enough last night and wanted to take a good rest.

After saying goodbye, Bass, Magic, and Kupchak discussed it.

Bass felt that Li Liang's goods might not be so easy to move.

The two had conflicts in the Lakers at the beginning, and Li Liang gave little Bass a look, and finally won the championship by relying on him.

Later, when Li Liang left, Buzz didn't keep much, thinking that there was one less second-round show, what could he do?

The result is nothing, the Lakers are still Lakers, they just can't get into the playoffs.

Now Bass has some regrets, especially Li Liang's performance in the playoffs this season, which is simply historic.

But he couldn't pull his face, so he went directly to contact Li Liang, so he had to go through Wei Dazhi.

How do you know that this dead fat man doesn't eat oil and salt, and his words are very beautiful, but he doesn't give accurate words.

Johnson is quite optimistic, believing that as long as the sincerity is enough, Li Liang can return to the Lakers.

Kupchak had a different opinion, he said: "No, no, Bruce is an extremely assertive and thoughtful person, he has his own standards, and others have no way to influence him. I don't think it's very likely that he'll go back to Los Angeles, and I've heard Kobe Bryant say that Bruce won't come back until Kobe retires. ”

"Then why don't you retire Kobe?" Bath Road.

You TM is a talent, in order to recruit Li Liang, are you as good as that?

Kupchak rolled his eyes at Buss, and continued: "And we have to pay attention to one thing, Bruce only stays with every team for one season, and he will probably stay with the Lakers for only one season, and we still have to look at it from a long-term perspective." ”

Kupchak's words actually make a lot of sense, but the temptation that Li Liang can win the championship is really too great, although no one knows what will happen next season.

"So what should we do?" Bas thinks it's more reliable to listen to Kupchak.

"You know, now that Leonard has decided that he's going to jump out of his contract and not renew his contract with Spurs, I think this could be an opportunity. Also, Dwight's contract, I think it's necessary to deal with it as well, don't you? ”

Kupchak's cerebellum began to spin.
