The competition in this session is very fierce, and in the draft, high school student Bogut got the top pick! The top 15 players in the first round (Note 1) are not surprised to see which of them will be the top three!

Leon and his team thought Zhou Yang would be in the top three this year. But he didn't want to be ranked 6th in the first round and was selected by the Trail Blazers! Then the Trail Blazers traded with the Lakers, and they traded Zhou Yang for Bynum, the 16th pick in the first round, who also has great potential!

......

"It doesn't seem bad. At the time, we were saying that joining the Lakers or the 76ers would be the best option. Now you've completed the first step! Leon said to Zhou Yang at this time. Two people eating dinner alone.

After he signed Zhou Yang, he began to plan for him. Zhou Yang didn't talk about a penny of salary now, and Leon began to advertise him! Said that he was the player who signed almost at the same time as James, Anthony, and Paul! He is convinced of the potential of these two young men!

In the advertisement filmed, Zhou Yang and the future "Queen Bee" stood together, and it was still a little exciting for Zhou Yang to be able to get close to Paul!

After that, it's time for the summer league. To the surprise of those present, Kobe and O'Neal did not come to watch the game once. They didn't make it to the finals at the end of the season.

O'Neill was disappointed. In the final showdown, the Spurs won the tough Detroit Pistons 4:3!

Morale on the Lakers' side has reached a certain low. Zhou Yang has already got a big contract of 10.89 million for 3 years at this time! Among them, 6 million in the first two years must be completed.

For such transactions, the voice of the outside world has gradually become louder. They feel that Zhou Yang's salary is a little too high! Is it so much for only the sixth pick?!

The initial price offered to Zhou Yang was $4.45 million for three years. But the Zen master immediately approached Oh Bas and said that if you want to get this player, you need to pay more! After several days of debating the matter, Dr. Bass finally relented.

This season, he also saw problems within the Lakers. If he could, he even had plans to let O'Neill go! But this year he was still a little reluctant. After all, it is very rare for the current league to have such a super strong center!

The game ended early, and Kobe Bryant and O'Neal went into vacation. Compared to last season, Kobe Bryant is not so painful and struggling. But he still didn't feel well. Because he couldn't understand why the team would choose a player like that.

Is it against Team Rocket? Or is it better than I have an Asian player on my team as well? Want to make money and want to go crazy?

O'Neal couldn't hide his disappointment when he learned that Bynum was traded away, but it was Zhou Yang who followed.

"Bynum should stay and let him play in the No. 4 position, we may have to play this season," the Sharks and the Black Mamba were in the same mental state at this time.

The Zen master ignored the opinions of the two men. Maybe the team will play well this season, and maybe it's time for him to roll up and leave with O'Neal.

The Lakers now have a championship heart, but their results are clearly not satisfactory to management!

From the recent communication with the management, it also feels that they are gradually losing interest in Jackson.

......

Zhou Yang, a player, was surprised that he could find Leon as his agent! It's hard to get in touch with a heavyweight agent like Leon. This also shows that Zhou Yang is indeed a young man with great potential! Whether it's his personal potential or market potential, it makes people feel fat!

"The lights won't be on in today's training. You connect in the dark, passing, shooting, and communicating with your partner. In silence, discover things that you may not have discovered before. Think about your own problems and how to integrate with the team. How can we deal with some results calmly in ordinary times......"

After coming to the Lakers, Zhou Yang averaged 19.7 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game in the summer league! But it was as if he didn't exist since he got here.

Now what makes him very strong motivation is that he can have an income of 3 million US dollars a year~ It's beautiful to think about it~ I thought it would take two or three years to buy back the house I lived with Linda before, so it seems that one year is enough!

The Zen master did not talk to Zhou Yang after he knew that he was coming. However, after a few contacts with Wharton, I began to like this young man with a clear and flexible mind!

Luke Wharton is in the same class as LeBron. This young man has the mental skills of a coach! Although his performance on the field was relatively ordinary, his thinking and analysis on the field won the appreciation of the Zen master!

Jackson needs the Lakers to have such a player right now! On the field, you don't have to rely on the manager to remind you of everything.

In the game, sometimes the team is behind and the Zen master still chooses to watch the game. He asked the players on the pitch to think for themselves why they were so far behind the opposition.

How to save the situation by adjusting!

Zhou Yang is now the highest-paid newcomer in the team...... So as soon as he arrived in the team, he felt like he couldn't get close to his teammates around him.

One of the team management is under pressure from the Zen master, and the other is Zhou Yang's agent! If it is more than 4 million three years, it is estimated that Leon will not agree. When such a player joins another team and plays well, won't they regret it?

Leon's players in recent years have all kinds of highlight performances on the field! LeBron just came to the NBA and didn't need anyone to coach him, and he immediately became the boss of the team...... After Melon went to the Nuggets, he also became the team's leader-level player!

So how will the two people he signed this year, Paul and Zhou Yang, perform?

There was no O'Neal in the training gym, and Kobe Bryant was not seen training here. Everyone trained in the dark for a few hours, and finally it was over.

In the dark, Zhou Yang has been quietly doing various movements there.

Since officially joining the Lakers, Zhou Yang has felt that the gap between this Lakers and his imagination is still not small. It is rumored that Kobe Bryant and O'Neal are at odds, is the real situation more serious than this?

The fact that the Zen master had not made any eye contact with him on the phone a few months ago made him uncomfortable.

It's as if the Lakers weren't reluctant to sign him. This time, the team trained half a month earlier than each season. Jackson doesn't have much to do now to sit in his office in a daze.

"The new season is coming again. I finally got through last season. He's now looking forward to seeing how the current Lakers team will perform when the season begins. Odom, Wharton, and the new Zhou Yang. Can they make a difference for the Lakers? ”
