Chapter 466: The King and the Two

Previous Chapter

If the win over the Rockets was an unexpected victory, they didn't play very well against the Trail Blazers. Then the back-to-back results of the Sacramento City against the Kings are certainly even less expected.

Because the Kings have been playing better and better in the past two years, they have the league's most versatile power forward Bryan and the league's top pure point guard Fred.

They have worked together for many years, and after so many years of cooperation, they have a feeling of being in Utah at the same time.

It's just that the current Bryan is more agile than the 'postman' Karl Malone in the past, and he can pull out of the three-point line.

Of course, he is also very skilled in all aspects of the basket, so he has a large offensive range, which will put a lot of pressure on the opponent's interior players.

Just like the Lakers in this game, the only way they can do that is to put power forward Covington at center and let the more flexible Vali play power forward.

It's just that they have a good idea, but Wali hasn't focused on playing the power forward position after all. Getting out of the low post is a completely different way of playing.

Wale's style of play on the offensive end can indeed range from high to low, but when it comes to defense, these are two concepts. Let's not talk about whether Oscar can restrain Fred, that is, the cooperation of the two of them can happen at any time.

Their linkage ability is so strong, the air connection is not a problem, and the air cut inside and outside is even more handy. If it weren't for the fact that the Kings were slightly inferior in other positions, they would have had every chance of becoming a strong team in the league.

And Fred and Bryan have every chance to leave the Kings to fight for their own championships, but their choice to stay together at the same time has become a good story in the league.

They have special power for such opponents, because their persistence is beyond ordinary people. The current Kings are here to get as many awards as they can.

Even the owner of the team has expressed such thoughts, because no matter what the circumstances, a player who can be on one team for the rest of his life is great, even if the two of them are at the end of their careers, but it is more respectable to be able to play for a team for the rest of their lives as a group.

Just like Fred, he is also a regular assist leader, but his career is still less than that of his predecessor Stockton, although neither of them has won championships.

However, Stockton has many other awards besides the assist king, and the corresponding Fred does not have so many recognitions.

It's not that his strength doesn't deserve all kinds of recognition, but compared to Stockton, the super traditional guard dislikes offense, and he has been playing an efficient triple-double of 10 points, 15 assists and 10 rebounds for a long time.

With his career-high scoring of just 30 points because he was too selfless, it's hard to say he's a superstar if you just look at the stats.

This is at the opposite end of the spectrum with his partner Brian, because with such a selfless super point guard, his individual scoring is so simple and efficient.

That's why before Curry Jr. became famous, the super scoring machine had already won four scoring titles. At the same time, his data is also a variety of explosions.

The career-high score even has an exaggerated 72 points, which is completely the performance of a top scorer, so his popularity is also high.

If he hadn't been born with the luck of winning the championship, his historical status would have improved a lot. Because the Kings' style of play is arguably the most efficient and direct presence in the league.

Their popularity is not only in the West, because of their special style of play, and many of the team's head coaches also regard them as objects of study.

This actually includes Wacker, although it is not very obvious in the Lakers, but in fact, many of Zhang Yi and Vali's playing styles come from the duo of Fred and Brian.

Many fans refer to Sacramento as the city with two kings. Their goal in life is to win the championship, but even if they make it to the finals, they will return home twice due to various injuries.

Some people are born without winning the championship, and this is the regret of some people. Now their ability is actually degrading, although the Kings are still a strong team, but they are not capable of leading them to the Finals.

Not to mention that the current little Curry is going to be retired by them, and the opportunity may be coming. Even the Kings boss has promised to do whatever it takes to get the two of them to compete for a championship at the end of their careers.

It's just a pity that they haven't been able to get a potential rookie this season, and they haven't been able to catch a big fish in the free market.

Whether it is Zhang Yi or Sean, if they get one, they are confident that they can break the barrier of Curry Jr.'s Golden State Warriors and win the championship.

But the Lakers and Hornets won't trade them at all, even if the Kings are willing to trade the remaining three starters.

In fact, this trade has also been put on the agenda, after all, the Hornets' record was not good at the beginning, and the team's main team has various injuries.

Sean's performance is also a bit too domineering, and it is difficult to say whether his future will improve the team's strength or become the next big ball tyrant.

So it's actually a good deal for him to get an All-Star star and two absolute team mainstays, and the Kings are close to making it.

But I never expected Sean's explosive performances to appear one after another, and even the stupid team owner could see the potential of this player.

After all, a player who can become the scoring champion in his rookie season is very rare even in history.

So of course this deal is also yellow. Not to mention that Curry Jr.'s successor is the absolute core of the Lakers, not to mention the three main players who will return it.

For Gianna, it was to exchange Brian and Fred for Zhang Yi, and she didn't even have to think about it. Because these people are incomparable to Zhang Yi.

The current Lakers team has their best record in recent years, and this is only with a few newcomers, and the remaining players still have a lot of possibilities for improvement.

Even if they may not win a championship this season, after all, it is already strong to go from a fish belly to a championship candidate after one year of drafting.

Turning over the serfs put the singing team also existed only in the case of a wide range of transactions. Of course, even if it doesn't work this year, Gianna already has a goal for the next year, and her goal is not just to make the Lakers win the championship, but to build a dynasty that belongs to Los Angeles!

Zhang Yi is the king of this dynasty, and no one can change this.
