Chapter 495: Kupchak's Wrong Choice
The Lakers won the game by 11 points. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Tang Qian got 15 points, 14 rebounds, 4 blocks and 2 assists in this game, but because he frequently went out to make up for the defense and expand the defense before, he only got 14 rebounds desperately, which was only tied with the challenge data, and did not exceed it. In this way, his "Today in History Challenge Mission" of this game finally ended with silver completion.
Obtained a Silver Ability Card Fragment, and the current inventory of Silver Ability Card Fragments is x2.
Bryant played 43 minutes in this game, scored 36 points, and he was also the best player of the game.
In addition, Nash had 18 points and 12 assists, and Gasol had 20 points, nine rebounds, one block and three assists.
Although Howard's statistics are acceptable, he does not have a significant advantage over the rest of the "three kings", which makes him have a calm face throughout the post-game press conference.
The winning streak continues, but the Lakers have no room to let up, as they are currently ranked 11th in the West and have not changed anything. As soon as he returned to his hotel, Howard called Kupchak and said, "Mitch. Kupchak! You're kidding me, aren't you? You're definitely kidding me! You also made a private agreement with that Chinese guy, right!! ”
Kupchak seemed to know that Howard was going to call, so he immediately opened his mouth to comfort: "There was a little accident in this game, the staff made a mistake, so I submitted that playing squad, and this kind of thing will definitely not happen again in the next game." "The end? Next one? Do you think I'm an elementary school student? You can just fool me??? "Howard was "shabu" once after that, for Mickey. Kupchak, apparently no longer trusting Dao.
"Dwight, I promise it's next time! Because I'll be there in person for the next game and submit this roster! So rest assured. "Mickey. Kupchak, as the general manager of the team, does have such power, and the so-called coach and team doctor need to report to him before the final squad can be decided. If you are Phil. Jackson's legendary dynasty coach may still be facing Mike, who has just come in less than a season. D'Antoni, hey, forget it then. People Mickey. Kupchak didn't see him as a threat at all.
Besides, it really doesn't work, as the big boss of the team management, he can enable the "intra-team ban" mechanism. Just like the Rockets treated Maddie back then, no matter how much you complain and plead, I won't let you play, and if you don't put you in today's activation squad, then you can only sit and watch yourself being "hidden" and "suppressed".
The famous "7-minute time limit" in 2009, I believe Rockets fans should still have a little impression, nominally a war between Maddie and Adelman, in fact, if Adelman has no management support behind him, how can Maddie be suppressed by this "7-minute time limit"? Therefore, if you offend the management or the general manager, generally speaking, the end will not be very good.
It doesn't matter if you're a famous NBA player.
Unless...... You can be like Kobe Bryant, with the support of bigwigs who go beyond management.
For example, the big boss of the team.
However, Tang Qian's current situation is completely different from that of Maddie, who was a little "made" in the 2008-2009 season. On February 18, he privately announced the surgery and season reimbursement on his personal website, which made Houston's management completely angry, because there was no news from the management to the coaching staff, that is, Maddie made a decision for himself for such a big thing. Individually, it's responsible for one's own body, but what does a professional basketball player mean? It's that your body is not only your own, it's the team's, it's the fans', and you have surgery without saying hello at all, which leads to the reimbursement of the season, and whoever comes in exchange will be fried. Because of this incident, when he came back next season, the Rockets management secretly supported Adelman and gave Maddie a "7-minute time limit", which directly made Maddie, who was accustomed to "training by game", lose all of his state, and then quickly died.
It's the same with stars, if you don't get enough playing time and deliberately "hide" you, your game status will definitely be wasted, and it will take twice as long to pick it up again. It is even highly likely...... I can't pick it up anymore. Maddie is the latter, and after going to the Knicks, he couldn't get back to his former heroic state, so he was abandoned by the league and became a complete ordinary player. Although he has a congenital spinal injury and deserves sympathy, some behaviors and actions are not to blame others, and what decisions you make will definitely pay the corresponding price. This is a theory of cause and effect that could not be simpler.
However, the Lakers management did not know that Tang Qian was not alone for a long time, and he had already passed Bonnie. Laughlin hooked up another line with the Lakers. Such a side line, either it will rise in the future and get the weight of the new boss, or it will be unlucky together and be cleaned up with the losers. The NBA league, especially the big city teams in the NBA league, will never be indispensable for such a drama, as it is said in some novels, to be a "lonely minister", to remain neutral, and to watch coldly is completely whimsical, because you are already trapped in this torrent, how can you "get out of the mud and not stained"?
To put it cruelly, you have to choose neutrality, well, then most likely, you, the first, bear the brunt, will be cleaned up.
Where is the power struggle of the big family?
So when Tang Qian made a decision, he could only follow Bonnie. Laughlin, or Jenny. Bath, one wins, one loses. As for being a "wall-to-wall", hehe, in a word, you have to bear the anger and attacks on both sides.
This is the most direct reality, cruel, cruel, and ruthless.
In a luxury suite in Los Angeles.
"Are you saying that Kobe, Nash, Gasol, and even other ordinary players have a good impression of this Chinese perm?" The woman who spoke was the eldest daughter of the Lakers' old Buss, Jenny, the third of the six children. Bass. She was sitting on the high-end sofa at the moment, looking at a report in her hand. "That's right, little. Sister, although this Chinese hot has not been with the Lakers for a long time, he has a good relationship with everyone on the team, including Bryant, Steve, and Paul. "The person speaking below is Bonnie. Laughlin, she is respectful, and there is no arrogance in the workplace.
"Hmm, really?" Jenny. Bass said: "Then this little oriental guy is far smarter than we think, at least except for Gasol, it's rare to see Kobe Bryant so kind to an interior player, right?" That's what he's capable of. By the way, what do you think of his performance and potential on the field? ”
"I think his future should be a solid All-Star blue-collar worker, not to mention reaching DiCambe. Mutombo's degree, at least Camby and Tyson. At Chandler's level, it's still very possible. As for the performance on the field, my personal opinion is that he plays very hard and selflessly, and accepts dirty work and tiring work, does not complain or fight for the ball, which is a very good championship puzzle piece. "Listen to Bonnie. Laughlin's words, Jenny. Bass said: "Well, an excellent blue-collar worker like him is indeed valuable in the current league. ”
"Keep watching, if he keeps this form, then we can think about increasing the weight and coercing this player."
Jenny. Bass said: "I just don't know if his Oriental physical function can survive to that time, if it is the same as Yao, he will be injured in a few years, then our investment will ...... Alas, forget it, let's take it one step at a time, after all, he is the one who is clearly on my side right now, and there are still too few such people in the Lakers now. ”
