Chapter 123: Li Mojie's Invitation

"How's it going, Mo Jie, are you still used to this alliance?" After Li Mojie made a wave of efforts and the Suns took away the Lakers away from home, as the core of the former Suns, Nash very cordially invited Li Mojie to his home as a guest.

"Well, it's okay, it's just a little hot in Arizona." Li Mojie swallowed the last bite of steak, wiped the corners of his mouth, and replied.

"Haha, that's true, I'm going to buy a villa in California after retiring and live here with my children in the future." Nash said with a smile.

"Uh, retired?" Li Mojie bit his lip and looked at his idol and said.

Yes, some people like Kobe, some people like James, but Li Mojie's idol is this son of the wind, Nash!

Nash, as the 15th pick in the first round in 96, when he first came to the Suns, he could only play the third point guard in the face of Kidd and Johnson's crushing, but fortunately, Nash, who had a high basketball IQ, was appreciated by Cuban, and began to play after coming to the Mavericks, and then was traded back to the Suns by the Mavericks. As a low-pick MVP player, Nash is definitely the most vocal in the face of the league's climb to the top.

In his previous life, Li Mojie was a CUBA player with extremely mediocre physical fitness, and the person he most aspired to be was Nash, who was also extremely mediocre in the NBA, and it was Nash who inspired the former Li Mojie with his personal experience and efforts, making him get up early in the morning countless times, do countless boring dribbling, shooting, and maintain a scientific diet. But this senior has finally come to retire!

"Yes, my goal in Los Angeles is a championship ring, but unfortunately, maybe it's God's arrangement." Nash smiled helplessly. Nash once wrote in his autobiography about his regret: "It will always be a pity that the Phoenix Suns didn't win a championship in our time. Yes, we weren't very lucky, but every time I look back I think I could have scored one more goal, one less turnover, one more better pass. But I have nothing to regret, the stadium was always full and it was the best time of my life, thank you, Phoenix. When people ask me if I have a favorite game or a favorite moment on the field, I can't give an answer, it all comes together, and then I think of my teammates and friends I've made over the years. When I signed with the Lakers, I dreamed of getting the fans there and the city together, and I turned down a lot of more tempting offers to join Los Angeles because I wanted to throw myself in the fire and risk high in the final chapter of my career to get high returns. In my second race after I got here, I broke my leg and it was all different.

"Championship?" Li Mojie muttered. The championship, the championship determines the place in history! When it comes to the NBA's all-time superstar rankings, we always hear about the number of championships. Jordan, Magic, Larry Bird, O'Neal, Russell, Kobe Bryant, etc., all have several championships. As the NBA grows, there will be more championships, more superstars. In the future, when discussing the top 50 superstars in NBA history, the larger the time span, the higher the requirements, and the first thing to exclude is, of course, the superstars without crowns. Maybe one day, like that nasty "big mouth" Charles Barkley......

I still remember that in the 2016 offseason, Durant joined the Warriors, and the behavior of "judging friends and defecting to enemies" attracted people's attention, fans booed, and teammates did not understand. There is no doubt that Durant is for the championship, for greater honor, for a higher place in history. Durant said bluntly: "I'm ashamed of the Thunder, but I don't regret my decision!" It can be seen that the desire for a championship, maybe Durant returns to Russia with a ring, and Thunder fans may forgive him. Without a championship, Durant's historical status will not be much higher than Maddy's! And a year later, Paul made almost the same decision and joined the Rockets, who are most likely to wrestle with the Warriors in the West!

In his previous life, in the 2016-2017 season, the Warriors successfully took revenge on the Cavaliers and reclaimed the O'Brien Trophy from the Clevelands. While celebrating in the locker room, Nash, who served as an adviser to the Warriors, secretly kissed the trophy the moment he received Durant's FMVP trophy, which undoubtedly hit the tears of most fans. As a player, Nash has never felt the glory of a championship.

"So, can you come back? Back to the Suns, back to where you started, and we're winning together! Thinking about it, Li Mojie straightened up and suddenly said with a straight face.

"Back to the sun?" Hearing Li Mojie's invitation, Nash opened his mouth wide in surprise.

"Yes, back to the sun." Li Mojie nodded and said seriously.

"Hmm." Nash lowered his head and pondered, as if he was thinking about how to reject Li Mojie.

"It is impossible for the Lakers to win the championship with this kind of lineup now, I believe you are also very clear, Kobe Bryant's state after ruptured Achilles tendon, you should be very clear as his teammate, I have learned his strength tonight, I regret to tell you that he is no longer the omnipotent black mamba he used to be, and you are not the son of the wind anymore, maybe you are all old." Li Mojie counted the recent situation of the Lakers and said in a deep voice.

"And what do you think of solar energy?" Nash didn't feel uncomfortable because Li Mojie said that they were old, but suddenly smiled, and smiled very calmly, he straightened his back and tilted his head and asked.

"Yes! And it's not too far away, I, the first No. 1 in Suns history, will bring them the first O'Brien Trophy! Unexpectedly, Li Mojie stared at the man in front of him seriously and said.

Nash felt that he was burned by Li Mojie's fiery eyes, these are extremely confident eyes, maybe he was missing his confidence in the first place!

"But how can I help you? By the time my contract expires, I'll be 41 years old, and as you said, I'm not that MVP player anymore. After Nash said that he was old, he suddenly became like a deflated tire, and his body suddenly became much more rickety.

"There are a lot, the biggest point is your experience in fast breaking, you know I'm a point forward, the team's organization and offense are all implemented by me, I have a hunch that the small ball era will be very popular in the league in these seasons, three-point, fast break, air cut, how to control the rhythm, I'm not a person who is good at small ball tactics, I need guidance for all this." Li Mojie snapped his fingers and said little by little.

"Small ball tactics, alas, do you really think that small ball tactics can win the championship?" Nash had listened carefully to Lee's words, but after hearing the small ball era, he sighed deeply, and then asked with a hint of expectation.

"Yes, it must be possible, I have always believed it!" Li Mojie may be the most staunch supporter of small-ball tactics in this era, because only he knows how the Warriors beat the invincible opponents in the league in a few years, how they beat the second person in the league to shoot, and how they broke the winning record of the old hooligan!

Nash was shocked by Li Mojie's firm tone, you must know that he is the promoter of small-ball tactics, he can't help but question small-ball tactics after being defeated by the Lakers and Spurs one after another, but this person who doesn't even know how to play small-ball is so sure of small-ball tactics!

"You're such a strange person!" Nash looked at Li Mojie in front of him, and felt as if he had returned to the time when he first entered the alliance, he suddenly laughed and said.

"Yes, I'm just a strange person!" Li Mojie also laughed, Nash did not respond positively, of course, after all, Li Mojie is only a rookie this year, and the Suns have not even determined the playoff spot this year. However, Lee is confident, and this confidence comes not only from himself, but also from his current younger brothers, Gobert and Middleton, as well as the Morris brothers of the Suns, P.J. Tucker, and even Gerard Green...... Li Mojie knew very well what an amazing power their gang could burst out in the future!

I'm back, the civil service admission has ended, I have found a job, and I am preparing for the defense in the past few days, one chapter a day, and two chapters a day after the defense, until I joined in September.
