Chapter 294, Xiao Si broke out!
The Suns have had a good record in recent years, but that's not the credit of owner Sarver, who is always thinking about how to save money instead of investing in the team.
In the first two years, as long as the Suns worked so hard, the championship could be said to be within reach, but due to Saver's inaction and even the sale of draft picks many times (Rondo was sold by the Suns to the Celtics), the Suns have always been one breath away from the championship.
And next season, Xiao Si has confirmed his departure from the team! Even if the Sun has the opportunity to stand on the stage of the finals this year, it is impossible for Xiao Si to be the heart of the party, and Xiao Si is very dissatisfied with the renewal contract given by the Suns! However, the Suns management is reluctant to give a longer contract in view of Xiaosi's injury! The boss of the Suns is the kind of guy with Sterling, but many times it is Sterling who comes out, and he is only responsible for waving the flag and shouting in the back!
"Actually, I know, but there aren't many choices, do they?"
Huang Yu also knows that Phoenix is not a good choice, but in the team that traded him, it is good! At least the boss doesn't have a bad lineup, at least there is still the possibility of hitting the playoffs next year!
Other Western teams, the bottom few teams are not even likely to hit the playoffs unless Huang Yu wants to fish for a few years in a row, the Timberwolves are rotten to improve the strength of the team, and the Kings are rotten to increase the value of the team, after all, it is almost known that the owner of the Kings wants to sell the team at a high price.
As for the offers of the Grizzlies and Warriors, the two teams have no chips that the Lakers fancy at all! didn't even have the desire to talk, the Rockets really wanted to trade to Huang Yu, but they opened their mouths, although they bid Maddy, they also wanted the Lakers to add Brown to Brown! Immediately, the Lakers refused.
----------
In fact, if Huang Yu goes to the east, then the Lakers have more operational conditions, but who told Huang Yu to let Bill Duffy let out the wind to stay in the west, and he also boasted to the president that he wanted to end the Lakers with his own hands!
It's impossible for the Lakers' management not to know, and Old Buss only thinks it's a young and vigorous kid talking nonsense when he hears this! I think Huang Yu didn't want to leave the Lakers to do this! So I communicated with Kupchak and traded him to other teams in the West, even if it was a little loss, I want to see how he ended the Lakers with his own hands, which is why Huang Yu was not traded before the trade deadline, if there was no old Bass to speak, Huang Yu would have started commercial activities or systematic training by now! After all, the Knicks' offer to the Lakers at the time made them very excited.
"As time goes on, there are fewer and fewer good chips to give, do you really want to go to Minnesota or Memphis? You must know that although the Trail Blazers and Spurs also applied for a trade, it is impossible for the Lakers to agree, after all, this is to improve the strength of the enemy, and in the Spurs you can only become a player in the system, if you want to be the same as Kobe, it is simply a dream, and the Trail Blazers have too many young players! Although I know you're not afraid of competition, there are too many unstable elements, and it's hard to get into the playoffs next! And do you know what the chips are given by the Trail Blazers? It's Roy! The Trail Blazers are no longer afraid to bet on whether Roy will be healthy! They're just trying to do as much as they can while he's still valuable, and the Lakers are obviously tempted, but if you go, you're going to be the culprit of the Trail Blazers' trade for Roy by those Rose Garden fans! It's normal for you to behave well, if it's a little worse, then you're going to face a thousand fingers! â
Watching Bill Duffy foam at the mouth, Huang Yu handed him the water on the table!
Although the Trail Blazers are also Huang Yu's target among the young teams, the name of the Tearing City is too loud, and it really seems like a curse! Oden the Great only played a few games in the NBA before he continued to suffer injuries, and Roy, who could get the title of Yellow Mamba, was also devastated on the knee of the Trail Blazers! Although he had knee problems in high school, he had five surgeries in just a few years after entering the NBA, and Huang Yu knew that Roy had picked the meniscus in both knees a year later! You must know that the existence of the meniscus can reduce the load of the knee joint, and it is also the key to ensure that the knee will not be injured during perennial weight-bearing exercises, which is the same as the shock absorber, and Roy's way of playing lacks the meniscus, which is simply in pain all the time! It's no wonder that he can be in good shape, which is why Roy had to retire after 5 years in the NBA.
Although he has only been in the NBA for 5 seasons and has been fighting with his knees most of the time, Roy still broke out of the title of Yellow Mamba, and the league has a template of Black Mamba, which also proves the expectations of fans Roy! If he can stay healthy, fans think he could very well become a Kobe Bryant-like figure!
But it's a pity that the injury didn't let him go! Although after the Trail Blazers pardoned Roy, Roy, who had taken a break for nearly a year, joined the Timberwolves! But after only playing 5 games in August, Roy had another knee surgery in mid-November, and his seventh knee repair! So he was cut by the Timberwolves! Can only be retired again.
----------
"You're not going to be a warrior, are you? Oh my God, don't you think about it, can you? Although there are more Chinese fans there, that is not the motivation that can make the Warriors enter the playoffs! â
Bill Duffy seemed to suddenly think of something, and said very resolutely.
Huang Yu glanced at Bill Duffy, how could he go to the Warriors! Why don't you go to that team and make an appointment in advance to hug your thighs? What are you kidding, if you want to hug your thighs and go straight to the Mavericks, they will win the championship next season!
"I'm not going to the Warriors, the city they're in isn't very safe! I don't want to go out to the supermarket with a bodyguard! â
Although Huang Yu has a green card in the United States, he can also buy guns! But according to the strange law of the United States, firearms and magazines must be separated, otherwise once caught, they are easy to face the possibility of detention! And Huang Yu is a public figure, going to the supermarket and being caught with a gun will become big news, and the general doesn't have to play with a gun in the locker room!
And Huang Yu's current worth can hire bodyguards! Let them apply for a gun license, but Huang Yu doesn't want his life to be watched all the time, and he still spends his own money to find guilt!
"Ugh! Truly! The place is so agreeable to a vicious incident, and several convenience stores have been robbed recently! â
Although Bill Duffy is a native of the United States, he also hates it! There's no way to rob with a knife in the United States, TM is a LO... Bīŧ If you don't take a pistol, it looks low-grade! The last few convenience stores have been robbed, and they have already taken semi-automatic weapons!
"Okay, let's not talk about it, you can help me pay attention to the trade between the Suns and the Lakers! At least don't let me be the last one to know! â
Although Huang Yu planned to use some small means to blow the wind, he didn't tell Bill Duffy, after all, the system manipulated the water army to reach no trace, and no one knew that Huang Yu was sitting!
----------
With back-to-back defeats on the road, the Suns have no way to attack the Lakers.
"It's like a water pipe with holes all over the place, you plug one hole with your fingers, and the water comes out of the other hole and we have to find more fingers."
As Suns coach Gentry said in a pre-game interview, the first two games of the Lakers can be said to be more flowering, playing the Suns in a hurry, and the defense was very poor, but the Lakers attacked together and the Suns hit the dice.
"I didn't plan to leave Phoenix, and I didn't hear anything about it! I just want to take this playoff game seriously! â
Nash said in an interview that he was not aware of the online trade rumors about him in recent days.
Needless to say, this is all the result of Huang Yu's operation, after all, the wind direction is blowing out on Phoenix's side, and it is also misleading Phoenix fans and reducing pressure on the Lakers! Although Huang Yu doesn't plan to come to Phoenix, who knows if the Lakers will gradually get closer to the truth because of the trade, and other teams will come out to insert a lever, you must know that Nash is one of the least dominant point guards in this league, and he is very popular with the superstars of those teams!
Once the pressure has been on the Lakers' side, speeding up the feasibility of the trade plan, the Lakers agreed to the Suns' conditions, and the trade market will be closed as soon as it opens, and they will soon be finished! Although other teams can intervene, it is almost impossible to give a better bargaining chip than the Lakers, and Nash will not refuse to go to the Lakers!
----------
"See! That's what they're preparing! Speed up negotiations with the Knicks. â
Xiao Si was irritable and his agent was on the phone, and Huang Yu's army was mainly advocating for Xiao Si to leave and add a newcomer to take his place! And Huang Yu is just much stronger than him, which is more in line with the current tactics of the Sun, although it is much less in terms of internal deterrence, but Huang Yu is far from accurate! In addition to Nash's passing ability! With a little addition from the inside, it would be easy to get a playoff spot, much better than Smalls being out of place in the Suns' playbook.
In Xiao Si's rage, the third game of the series between the Sun and the Lakers began, although the outbreak of Xiao Si Huang Yu has been mentally prepared, but once the little overlord is powerful, it is really TM strong, if it is not for Huang Yu to play for no reason, he will be blown a technical foul and the latter was sent off, and now they all want to rush to the court to stabilize Bynum and Gasol, the mood at this moment, is not very depressed!
Back at home, the Suns' offense has improved, and even the defense is much better than the first two games, the two sides still attacked each other in the first quarter, and Kobe Bryant did almost whatever he wanted on the court, hitting 5 of 6 shots in the first quarter, and scoring 11 points alone.
But the Suns are not short of scorers, the angry Xiao Si played harder, constantly beating the Lakers inside, the two sides fell into a bitter battle as soon as they opened, more than half of the game, the first two games of the average performance of Richardson three-point shots, so that the Suns 22-19 exceeded, but Kobe Bryant immediately with three points, the Lakers overtook the score again, but Nash and Richardson have since succeeded, the two sides exchanged the lead again, after which the Suns' shooting rate has declined, after the first quarter fell behind 29-32, and the little bully has long been out of the game at this time, Although Xiao Si is explosive, the staying power is obviously not enough.
The Suns changed their tactics in the second quarter to adopt joint defense tactics, which largely limited the Lakers' offense, but Huang Yu was there, so as long as Huang Yu received the ball outside the three-point line, he could open up enough offensive space, but unfortunately, Huang Yu's offensive desire was not very high, and he only got 5 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists before the game.
Although Huang Yu's score is a bit scummy, the first few rounds were played like this, but 8 minutes is enough for Huang Yu to score about 10 points, and there are not many opportunities to shoot today, which makes the Lakers' coaching staff very puzzled, but after Huang Yu sent assists one after another, their doubts have decreased a lot, maybe it is more reasonable!
Although there were still 3 minutes before halftime after Huang Yu left, and the Lakers led 45-39 at this time, they only shot one shot in the quarter after that, and the Suns ended the quarter with a wave of 15-2, 54-47 in one fell swoop, and the Lakers only scored 15 points in this quarter, less than half of the first quarter.
"Why are you making so few shots today?"
Odom asked, eating a banana.
"Maybe it's not the weather here, I feel that the whole person is dry, and the feel is not very high, so I don't vote!"
Huang Yu casually found an excuse to deal with the past, and he couldn't say that he was paving the way to make Phoenix fans think that he was inferior to Nash! Once Phoenix has the momentum to agree to a trade, he is planning to take the lead! Once Xiao Si is gone, if Nash is leaving, the Suns' tickets for next season are estimated to be difficult to sell! If the fans riot, then the Suns are particularly budget-conscious owners, and they should be calculating!
----------
In the third quarter, the Lakers regained their offensive feeling, and the two sides began to fight again, with the outbreak of Xiao Si, the Suns once led by 8 points at 69-61, but the Lakers chased after it, and with 2 minutes and 14 seconds left in the quarter, Kobe Bryant hit a three-point shot to chase the score to 78-79.
However, after two free throws and two free throws, the Lakers attacked Gasol and scored a basket when Kobe Bryant attracted the Suns defense, helping the Lakers maintain a one-point gap.
Halfway through the third quarter, the Lakers' benches appeared one after another, although Huang Yu said that he planned to paddle, but it couldn't be so obvious, but the poor hand seemed to be real, although Huang Yu's three-point shot helped the Lakers once equalize the score or even overtake, but Shannon Brown gave the opponent two free throws 1.5 seconds before the end of the quarter, allowing Barbossa to hit two free throws, and the Suns ended the first three quarters 86-84.
In the fourth quarter, Huang Yu began to paddle Huang Yu was ready to continue paddling, so he worked harder on defense, who made the opposing player become Xiao Si! With 8:47 left in the game, Odom hit two free throws to give the Lakers a 90-89 lead, but they didn't expect this to be their last lead. The Lakers hit just one shot in the next four minutes, and the Suns went on an 11-2 run to take a 100-92 advantage. The Lakers were stuck in the Suns' combined defense and had problems on offense. With 4:33 left in the game, Bryant scored again with a free throw.
Bryant made four free throws and the Lakers closed the gap to four points, but they missed back-to-back shots to give the Suns six straight points to open up the deficit at 106-96 after Nash hit a shot. The Lakers were unable to close the gap to within six points after that, and finally suffered a defeat in the Western Conference Finals.
