After the NBA playoffs, the coaching staff and players of each team began to take vacations one after another, and after the championship parade was the long-awaited vacation.

Harris was finally able to rest for two months, and before leaving, he was very relieved about his position, confident that no one would be able to pry his position after winning the championship, and those with bad intentions were dreaming.

Zhang Yu has also started to have a holiday, although for him, this holiday is to have more time and more young ladies to hook up, and then consume more cards to supplement nutrition, that's all.

Speaking of ill-intentioned people, Don Nelson recently came to Los Angeles, which is clearly ill-intentioned.

Don Nelson has been a little sleepless these days, and the position of Lakers head coach has been spinning in his eyes, which makes him can't help but wonder how he can replace him as soon as he closes his eyes?

There is no doubt that the Lakers are his top priority, and as for the big bad team like the Mavericks, even if it gives him as much power, it is the last choice.

But unfortunately, just like the Bulls suddenly rumored that they wanted to renew his contract with the Zen master for another year, the Lakers did not take the initiative to contact him, which made Don Nelson can't help but call Zhang Fu a few times.

This is a matter of course, and how can there be an example of a team firing a coach immediately after winning a championship? This is completely unscientific!

Although Zhang Fu respects him in his heart, he will not be stupid enough to force the head coach away immediately after winning the championship, isn't that asking for trouble for himself?

Besides, Don Nelson was at most as famous as Harris before the Zhang Zhu incident, and one of the two was good at trickery, and he liked to tinker with some strange things. The other is known for being steady and good at adjusting the locker room.

In fact, they all have their own strengths, and there is no saying that anyone is better than whom, only who is more suitable than whom.

In the playoffs last season, the Zen master was very convinced of Harris's coaching ability.

The Bulls have been secretly observing the Lakers since the first round, and it turned out that although this opponent did not have too many finishing touches in terms of tactics and on-the-spot scheduling, the Lakers did not make too many mistakes from beginning to end, and even made mistakes rarely, just one word "stable".

That's actually Harris's greatest strength, he's the kind of coach who can play at any level if you give him as many cards as you give.

That is to say, if you give him a team that only has the strength of the division semi-finals, then he can only lead you to this extent; But you've got to give him a championship-caliber team and he's sure he'll take it to the finals.

Harris also has a strong point that Zen masters can't see, that is, this guy is very sleek, quite a bit of eight-sided energy, simply put, he can be a man.

Zhang Qi has a deep understanding of this, and said that in the first season, the strength of the Lakers would not be able to win the championship, and Harris's tactical arrangement tried his best to let him get good-looking data, how did you make Zhang Wei dissatisfied and happy?

Last season, after Kidd came, Zhang felt that this little bastard had affected his rebounding stats and wanted to elbow him a few times.

Harris didn't say a word, and immediately told Kidd to go to the basket and clean my hands or I'll kill you.

Zhang Zhu's side was full of joy in an instant, and the rebounding data was quickly recovered.

Eventually, he figured out the results again, and Harris immediately entrusted Kidd and Mason with the task of sharing the pressure on him, and the Lakers won the championship.

To be honest, it's rare to see such a discerning head coach who can judge the situation and be so steady in coaching, right?

Zhang Qi didn't want to cross the river and tear down the bridge now, no matter what, he had to wait until they failed to defend the title, or after the three consecutive championships were completed, and then kicked Harris away to prove that he was the only reason to win the championship. But now, of course, there is no reason to get Harris away, it would be stupid to do so.

So, the whole thing is already obvious, Harris is undoubtedly more suitable for the current Lakers, once the coach is replaced by Don Nelson, they will have to readjust the run-in, who knows if there will be incompatibility and other situations at that time?

Don Nelson is now a fan of the authorities, and he should know that he has little chance of squeezing out Harris, so it is better to take the opportunity to let Zhang Yu cooperate and help him make his reputation popular, and when it comes, he can also make other teams pay more attention to this crazy scientist, which is the smartest thing for Don Nelson to do at the moment.

Harris is very sober here, he knows the stability of his position, so he goes on vacation as soon as the season is over, and he doesn't take Don Nelson's threat in his eyes at all.

Jordan is also very sober here, he knows that the failure to defend the title this year has little to do with the Zen master, it really comes down to the final analysis, the reason is actually that he and Pippen were caught by the Lakers to be weak, and they can only go to the basket brainlessly in the situation where they can't open the long-range shot, but there is an African mountain where the defensive ability is not inferior to the peak Olajuwon, and it is also an enhanced version of the air defense Olajuwon, which is doomed to the failure of the Bulls.

If he and Pippen can open up the situation on the outside, the Bulls will never be unable to win even a game, and the outcome is still unknown.

So, strictly speaking, he and Pippen are the culprits, and they should take the blame.

Bulls fans are not stupid, they are also unwilling to drive away the Zen master because of this failure, and there are not many head coaches in the league who are as good as the Zen master.

The person who is now bent on getting rid of Phil Jackson is actually Klaus, the general manager of the Bulls.

He doesn't care how important the Zen master is to the bull, this kind of person who threatens his job doesn't need to think too much about it at all, he must get out!

But under Jordan's pressure, Klaus could only compromise, so he pinched his nose and gave the Zen master another year.

"I'll renew Nima coins!"

The Zen master is also a temperamental person, every time it only takes a year to do this kind of thing, he has already endured it anymore!

The bull is really not authentic in this matter, no matter what the Zen master says, it is also a serious dynasty coach, you just renew the contract year after year, where is there a little respect?

Last year was like this, the Zen master saw that the bull won the championship again, and compromised in order to create his own second dynasty.

But now that the second dynasty is gone, isn't it humiliating for the Bulls to offer a one-year contract like this? He also wants to save face, okay? Could it be that a manager with 4 championships in 7 years really can't find a good home?

"Mom sells batches! First said that I relied on Jordan to win the championship, and then said that I was able to coach Jordan because of the ancestors, and now I said that it was up to me to lose, and TMD gave me another chance? I bought you a watch for hemp! Are you blind? Before I came, had Jordan won even once? Has he ever touched the floor of a grand final? How did you scold him then? ”

The Zen master's words have been held back in his heart for too long, although he can only scold in his heart this time, but people are really unfair to him, and one fact is - Jordan did not even make a single finals before he came to the Bulls to teach. But in his second year with the Bulls, the team immediately started the dynasty hegemony, is it really all Jordan's credit? Was he really just lucky?

On June 20, the Los Angeles Times suddenly broke a news that made the Clippers make headlines -

"Phil Jackson is at the helm of the Clippers and is expected to earn more than $5 million a year."

As soon as this news came out, the bulls were immediately stunned!

At this moment, even Jordan, who was preparing to start direct summer training at home, was speechless by this news, and even thought it was fake news for a while, why did he not expect the Zen master to kick the bull first?

But this news is not false, the Clippers held a small press conference the next day, announcing that "Zen Master" Phil Jackson officially joined the Clippers coaching, with a contract period of three years, but the specific annual salary was not disclosed.

"Failure, lack of focus, lack of effort, disappointment......"

These are the words that Phil Jackson kept using at the press conference, obviously the "Zen master" is very resentful of the Bulls, and for himself to coach the most outstanding center in the current team, Phil Jackson will certainly not be stingy with his kind words, "great, magical, incomprehensible, dominant" and other words continue to appear, basically praising the fat man as the chosen one like Chamberlain's reincarnation.

The Lakers were also caught off guard by this news, and they didn't expect that the Zen master actually ran to Los Angeles in a smoke, and TM ran like the Flash, and the finals have only been a few days?

Also, has their poor neighbor lost his mind in recent years?

In the past two years, the Clippers have made too much money, right?

Stirling, that old man, is he really willing to spend a lot of money to invite a Zen master to advise?

Although Phil Jackson's salary was not disclosed, it was conservatively estimated to be more than three million, and the five million reported by the Los Angeles Times was quite reliable. Even if he was just swept by the Lakers, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the responsibility cannot be blamed on the Zen master, and no one can lead the Bulls who were killed to defeat the Lakers.

But I have to say that this O'Neal is indeed a bit like Jordan back then, at least the trajectory is very similar.

This big shark is now almost incomprehensible in terms of individual strength, but he has not yet learned to turn individual ability into team victory, which is similar to Jordan back then.

Also, Jordan only won Pippen, a real assistant, in the fourth year, and now O'Neal finally has a group of excellent helpers such as Jones, Lauy, Van Exel and Kobe Bryant, what they lack is a good coach to stimulate the team's potential, and the Zen master is undoubtedly the best choice for the Clippers at this stage.

"So what, didn't the bulls be swept by us too?"

Zhang Zhu's thoughts at this moment are the same as his tens of millions of fans, and now whether it is neutral fans or fans with various tendencies, except for a very small number of Zen master fans, basically no one thinks that the Bulls' dynasty has much credit for him.

Everyone does think that the Zen master is lucky to meet Jordan, who has not won the championship for seven years, and if someone else coaches the Bulls at that time, Jordan, who is just mature, can also lead the team to eat chicken.

Now the Zen master has gone to the clipper, although he took the initiative to break up, and his face is better, but the pot that was swept by the bull is still carried by him, and his reputation has been affected. Aside from Clippers fans, there aren't many people who think he can change the fortunes of this team. As for Clippers fans dreaming of taking out the Lakers? That's a bit too dreamy!

This summer, Zhang Mao, like Jordan, did not go on vacation, both stayed in a fixed place for training, and even had very few endorsement activities, which also allowed the media to find the secret of the success of the two generations of kings, just two words "diligence".

Jordan is indeed hardworking, at such an age, he can still torture himself like this.

Zhang Zhu's diligence is complete nonsense, the blind media think they see the truth, but they don't know that Zhang Zhu will only conduct two more hours of technical training at most in addition to two hours of physical training during the day, and the rest of the time will be spent with his sister.

But the girls are also blind, they all think that Zhang Fu gave all the time after training to themselves and their best friends, but they don't know that the truth of the matter is very cruel.

Only when it is time to fall asleep at night, Zhang Wei will "passively" practice for five or six hours, but these are counted by others during the day.

He doesn't necessarily like to train while he's sleeping, but what can he do without training?

He just dreams like this every day! He doesn't even know how to dream!

In the offseason, Zhang Mao, who has excellent sleep quality, still has to sleep at least five hours a day. He had to sleep for six or seven hours before he woke up because of fatigue during the game. Even if he doesn't want to train these times, he has to train passively, and he can't just stand there and be stunned for five or six hours, right?

But it is precisely because of these five or six hours that his training volume surpassed Jordan's, and he was able to hone his basic skills enough at the age of 20 to start advanced training at the age of 20......

This summer, Zhang Fu began to be dissatisfied with honing his basic skills. In this regard, he felt that he had almost honed it. He also made very few mistakes in the playoffs last season, which is a sign of the maturity of the fundamentals. Next, he has the capital to play a little fun.

It's been five or six years since he got the system, and although the hardest time is the two seasons in the NBA, the total amount of sleep he's spent over the years is at least the same as that of those hard-working players who practice until they're twenty-five or sixteen.

Take the most diligent Jordan as a comparison, Zhang Zhu's current training time is about the same as Jordan's twenty-four or five years old, if the two of them are similar in ball sense, technique and other talents, then he should now have Jordan's technical level when he was twenty-four or five years old.

Zhang Qiu's ball sense is very good, and his technical talent is by no means inferior to Jordan, and his shooting talent is even stronger, so his current skills are by no means inferior to Jordan, who is twenty-four or five years old. Referring to Jordan at that age, he was already very perfect in terms of technique, but he relied too much on personal ability, and Jordan at that time was immature because of his style of play and experience, so he couldn't win the championship for a long time.

This summer, Zhang Wei naturally will not temper the basic skills that are perfect enough, he plans to strengthen his back hitting skills, which are too practical for him. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen dribbling skills, to put it bluntly, it is to practice coquettish crossover, such as what kind of dribbling behind the back, cross dribbling, crotch dribbling, fancy dribbling, he has to practice the dribbling skills of these sao bags little by little. Finally, he also needs to strengthen the speed change and direction shake in the breakthrough, so that he can add some grace in addition to being strong, so that the style of play will be truly picturesque.

Of course, in this way, he also has to increase the flexibility of the body, so he really has to do a good job of physical training during the day, two hours is not enough, and he has to increase it to 3 hours in the future, so that he can continue to improve his strength and confrontation ability, and the training of body flexibility and balance will not be left behind.

Fortunately, this aspect is the specialty of half of the yellow blood in his body, so Zhang Zhu can always have some soft strength in addition to being strong, unlike those black and hard who can only rush and fight, Zhang Zhu has a lot of beautiful and picturesque talents in addition to being fierce, otherwise how could he attract so many fans?

Daytime: 3 hours of physical training + 2 hours of pure technical training + 1 hour of physiotherapy.

Evening: 1 hour of basic skills training, 1 hour of shooting training in confrontation, 1 hour of shooting training without confrontation, 1 hour of confrontation dribbling training, 2 hours of non-confrontation dribbling training.

This is Zhang Fu's training plan for a whole day, in fact, it is a little less than before, but it is still more than ten hours, which is terrifying!

If Jordan knew that Zhang Qian was cheating like this all day long, he would have jumped up and scolded "cheating to death for the whole family", because this is the amount of training that he couldn't bear when he was young, which means that he is training all in addition to eating and sleeping.

This is really too open, if a normal person really practices like this, he will be abolished in a month at most.

But half of Zhang Fu's training is carried out in the virtual system, and the amount of training in reality is only five hours, and he counts that hour of physiotherapy, which is really shameless!

On June 28, 1997, the annual NBA pick-up event was about to begin, and it was usually the day when teams began to trade, as it was only days before the transfer market opened.

The Lakers naturally don't care about the draft today, but they are still very interested in the summer market, because there are many veterans on the team who are retiring and cleaning up on one-year contracts.

The lineup when the Lakers won the championship -

Centre-forwards: Dekembe Mutombo, Jermaine O'Neal, Greg Anderson

Power forwards: Anthony Mason Jr., Ervin Johnson, Ben Wallace.

Small forwards: Zhang Mao, Jeromy Corsi

Shooting guards: Michael Finley, John Starks, Ricky Pearce

Point guard: Jason Kidd.

Of course, Elvin Johnson chose to retire after winning the championship. He has already received his sixth championship ring, twice as many rings as Larry Bird, and despite the fact that this last one has multiple trips, with twice the number of championship honors, he will inevitably have a place above Bird in history in the future. If Jordan can't get another ring or two, he will be crushed by the Magic after he retires.

Magic Meizizi chose to retire, and took back the 5% of the shares, ready to join the camp of Zhang Zhu, Jenny Buss, and Jerry West, and take the Lakers away from the old Buss.

In addition to the retirement of the Magic on the Lakers, Jeromy Corsi also chose to retire. Although Greg Anderson and Ricky Pierce want to play for another year, the Lakers are planning to find other veterans, and there are too many players who want to hug the Lakers' thighs now, and they have to choose well.

Therefore, the Lakers are not ready to renew the contracts of Ricky Pierce and Greg Anderson in the new season, so that with the addition of the two retired, the Lakers' lineup will instantly lose 4 people, leaving only 8 people.

Although Harris went on vacation, he and West often used ICQ to discuss reinforcements, and both of them had similar ideas-

In the new season, the Lakers need to add a veteran or young player who can withstand loneliness and have some strength at each of the two positions on the inside. So, if O'Neal is still unproductive next year, or if there are injuries on the team's inside, the two newcomers will have to step up to fill the void.

The Lakers' outside line also has to replenish blood, and Kidd must have a backup, and he must also be a veteran who can endure loneliness and have offensive ability, so as to prevent Kidd from cheating on the offensive end, and someone on the team can top it up.

At the No. 2 and No. 3 positions, the Lakers also need to replenish their reserves, preferably players with a different style from Finley and Starks, which can make the team more tactical and Harris have more options when deploying the team.

But all in all, the Lakers will not change the framework in the new season, the starting five will definitely not move, and the sixth man will be the same, just optimize the bench in the summer, and sew up the defects of the main team, so as to make the structure of the whole team more reasonable.

Before the start of the draft, the Lakers had already organized two tryouts and extended invitations to many international players.

Both Wang and Battle were invited to try out, and these international players will be coming to Los Angeles for tryouts in July, and the Lakers will be able to pick some of them to play in summer league, and those who do well may be left to be part of a glorious championship team.

Speaking of Chinese players, this time is different from another time and space, although the domestic team still does not want to release them, but the top encourages the players to go out.

This makes Wang Zhizhi and Battle's NBA journey much smoother, and as long as the Lakers are willing to compensate their original team, there is no problem for the two to join the NBA.

Of course, the Lakers will not be stingy with compensation of 100,000 yuan, and since the above encourages players to go out, those teams will not dare to open their mouths again.

But the Lakers also have to see if these two people are worth their money, if the trial effect is not good, even if it is given to the Lakers for nothing, they are just out of the championship team, waiting for the veterans who hug their thighs, it is estimated that they can be lined up from the Lakers' training hall to the Clippers' training hall.

At 8 p.m., the 1997 NBA Draft officially began, and the curtain of the new season began as the TV camera was the first to focus on Bean......
