Chapter 207: The Lakers are shocked!
Chen Yu heard the news without warning-
Last night, the Lakers sent player Darius Morris to the Development League overnight!
Moreover, judging from the news that Chen Yu heard from Meeks, if it weren't for Nash's injury, maybe Chris Dujon would also be sent down!
Such a piece of news, for Chen Yu, is really like a thunderbolt.
He took another look, no wonder Morris didn't come today, he should have just let him go back to Los Angeles and report to the Development League.
In Chen Yu's heart, there was a feeling of excitement at first, after all, this Morris and Du Hong picked up the previous incident, and almost killed Chen Yu.
Now that the Heavenly Dao is good for reincarnation, he has been directly delegated, and he has lost most of his opportunities, and it should be difficult to come back in the future. Based on his stats, there's a good chance he'll be a ranger after this season.
However, in addition to the excitement, Chen Yu felt a strange pressure around him: because he absolutely did not believe that this matter had nothing to do with him.
Chen Yu glanced at Kobe Bryant again, and suddenly felt that in this league, although many people seem to have good salaries, they are really floating in the eyes of real team bosses.
If Chen Yu is not very powerful, there is no doubt that he is the one who was sent down today.
And Chen Yu also discovered that the influence of a real team superstar on the upper echelons of the team, especially Kobe, has reached an appalling level!
After all, the team is to make money, Kobe and James are the two most money-absorbing players in the league, although they can get a salary of more than 20 million US dollars a year, but in fact, the value they can create for the team is not measurable by 20 million US dollars at all, that may easily exceed 100 million.
Therefore, on these relatively innocuous players, the Lakers should have listened directly to Kobe.
Although Chen Yu didn't know the ins and outs of the whole thing, he at least understood a rough idea in his heart: Kobe Bryant must have known about the two of them, and after many things were associated, there was an outline, and then, he used his influence to directly cut Morris.
This feeling gave Chen Yu a huge shock.
It turns out that in this alliance, many things are bound:
Team status, recognition, earning power, influence on the team, whether others dare to touch you......
These things are all involved in something called strength!
If you really have a strong strength in the NBA, and you can really make all the other players bow down, then you are really on the team, and many times you can turn the clouds and rain.
Even if you treat someone badly in your daily life, or if your personality causes other people to dislike you, others basically don't dare to say anything, especially those team players who are not of much use to you, and they don't even dare to put a fart.
Because you're a superstar, you have options, the team needs to coax you and hold you.
If one day you fall out with the team and you go out and yell out for a trade, the other team may fake that you are disloyal and have no work ethic, but there are still a lot of contracts waiting for you.
Because you have the strength!
In fact, to be fair, Kobe Bryant is already the kind of superstar who is not arrogant and domineering, although he will be cruel to some players, but in his place, everything is based on strength, if you can help me win the championship and listen to me, then I will protect you, but if your strength is not good, then I don't bother to pay attention to you.
But even so, Kobe Bryant can still let a player go with a single sentence.
Chen Yu really felt the shock.
In the past, although he vaguely knew about the existence of these things, after all, he only knew about it, and only today did he really get involved in it, and only then did he understand the true charm of this kind of thing!
It's so fascinating!
Unprecedentedly, Chen Yu wants to do his best to improve his strength and become the real boss of the team, and this feeling has gradually taken root in his heart, and he will one day grow into a towering tree.
…… Right now, no matter what Chen Yu is thinking, and no matter whether he doesn't like the feeling of being manipulated at will in his heart, but at least Kobe Bryant has helped him avenge himself, and Chen Yu can't do the kind of thing of picking up a bowl to eat and throwing chopsticks to scold his mother.
Therefore, Chen Yu sent a message to Kobe: "I will work harder in the future, I hope we can win the O'Brien Cup this year!" ”
Chen Yu also said this sentence after thinking about it for a while, after all, if he and Kobe Bryant expressed their gratitude at this time, it could only be that he really wanted to squeeze out some teammates in his heart, and his appearance was a little ugly.
Besides, Kobe Bryant doesn't need such thanks.
So Chen Yu directly and pragmatically said what Kobe Bryant wanted him to say.
Sure enough, Kobe Bryant replied with two words after a while: "Roger." ”
Although this word looks very pale and cold, Chen Yu can feel that Kobe already knows what he means, and he should be more satisfied with his attitude.
On the plane to Golden State, because of Nash's injury, the team's record slipped, and there were still people who went to the Development League, so the atmosphere was a bit depressing and silent today.
Chen Yu also knew that this kind of thing couldn't be broken by himself, so it was better to live the way everyone wanted.
Therefore, Chen Yu directly put on the headphones, and then listened to the cross talk between Lao Guo and Brother Qian, and specially chose a "Jiewa" that he had listened to almost a hundred times.
After all, this is his favorite old Guo cross talk, and because he has listened to it hundreds of times, he is already familiar with it, and he will not laugh out loud, otherwise if he suddenly laughs when he listens to it, it will be a bit of a big deal.
After the plane landed, Chen Yu went to D'Antoni and them as soon as possible, he needed to confirm with the head coach and show his loyalty, lest D'Antoni feel that he Chen Yu was arrogant and used Kobe's relationship to exclude dissidents.
Fortunately, the conversation with D'Antoni was relatively smooth, and Chen Yu also felt that D'Antoni should have nothing to worry about himself, and he listened to him in the last game, which made D'Antoni at least not hate Chen Yu in his heart.
In this way, he can be regarded as having accomplished one of his goals, and he breathes a sigh of relief in his heart.
After that, Chen Yu also picked a few teammates, and some of them didn't talk a few words, and confirmed that everyone should have no opinion on him, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
This turmoil has finally passed!
