After hanging up the phone, Chu Xuan began to think.

The Lakers got Jeremy Lin, which is indeed a good thing.

At the very least, Chu Xuan is confident that he will train Jeremy Lin to be a quasi-first-line point guard. This is a very good result for the future of the Lakers.

After all, Nash is 40 years old, and it will only be a year or two before he retires. Therefore, it is very important to find a point guard who can have strong immediate power to succeed the Lakers.

And the person who succeeds Nash must be young, and furthermore, he must have the potential to become a first-line or quasi-first-line point guard. Therefore, in Chu Xuan's planning, Jeremy Lin is one of them. However, he is not the top few.

However, at this stage, getting Jeremy Lin is the best choice and result. Chu Xuan has always felt that the most suitable person for the Lakers and the most suitable person to play next to Kobe Bryant is Jeremy Lin.

Of course, Jeremy Lin is not the only one, he is just one of Chu Xuan's spare tires for the Lakers. If there is a possibility of getting a better No. 1 position in the future, he can also give up Jeremy Lin.

In fact, Chu Xuan's plan is to choose a young No. 1 position with star player potential as a member of the Lakers' future blueprint, which can ensure that the Lakers will maintain stable competitiveness in the next 10 or even 20 years.

Jeremy Lin's ceiling is not up to the star level, and he is a little old at 25 years old, so he can't be the starting No. 1 in the Lakers' future dynasty blueprint.

However, in Chu Xuan's view, Jeremy Lin's arrival is still a very positive transaction, which is very beneficial to the Lakers this season.

As for the players lost for Jeremy Lin, Chu Xuan's regret in his heart was only Jordan Hill. Because Chu Xuan's original plan was that Jordan Hill could completely act as a backup interior for the Lakers in the next few years.

However, Chu Xuan was not entangled in this, after all, if there is gain, there will be loss.

"Chu, what are you thinking? Look at my defense, it's already 7 blocks, haha. ”

Whiteside's voice pulled Chu Xuan back to reality.

A shot was being played on the big screen, with Whiteside, dressed in a Lakers jersey, leaping high and blocking James' dunk.

Seeing Chu Xuan smiling, Whiteside couldn't help but say proudly: "7 blocks, it's only the third quarter, I think I'm going to get the first triple-double today." ”

Whiteside has been playing the game since 2K13 was released. And when he was in the Lakers, when he was playing the dynasty mode, he also specially got himself to the Lakers. As a result, every time he plays, Whiteside focuses on himself, so he hits good game stats every time.

"Hassan, there are too many bugs in this game, and you can always easily and weirdly block them, so if you get 7 blocks, it can't be considered a high level." Chu Xuan laughed.

As Chu Xuan said, this highly anticipated 2k13 is not a very good game, and the playability is poor, which once disappointed a large number of 2K fans. Whiteside is an exception, though, and he's always been able to have fun.

When Chu Xuan said this, Whiteside immediately shouted dissatisfiedly: "Chu, for a player with only 52 ability points, do you really want to say that?" ”

"Oh, damn it. Those guys are so hateful that they only give me 52 stats, which is simply insulting. Without waiting for Chu Xuan to speak, Whiteside began to complain about his low ability value again.

Since this game came out, Chu Xuan has heard such complaints the most.

"Hassan, your ability is indeed set a little low. However, if you want them to improve your stats, you can only talk by deeds. Chu Xuan blinked and smiled.

"Yes, I sure will. Hum. Whiteside looked disgruntled.

Chu Xuan looked at Whiteside's indignant appearance and smiled silently.

Because he had to wait for Phil Webb's call, although Chu Xuan was a little sleepy, he didn't go to sleep.

He sat on the couch, thinking about the game against the Thunder while watching Whiteside play a game.

I don't know how long it took for Whiteside to break the silence in the room with a shout of excitement.

Chu Xuan came back to his senses and couldn't help but laugh when he looked at Whiteside who was dancing excitedly.

Winning the game made Whiteside extremely satisfied and happy.

"See? Chu, I used 52 ability points to shoot 35 points, 14 rebounds and 10 blocks, a big triple-double. It's so enjoyable......"

On the LCD screen, the in-game camera is showing Whiteside, showing the highlights of his game.

"Hassan, when you're able to put on a show like that in reality, I think you're going to be a celebrity in Los Angeles. I'm looking forward to that day. Chu Xuan smiled meaningfully.

In his previous life, Whiteside was often able to hit a triple-double with blocks. And in this life, it will obviously not take long.

"Chu, if there is enough time, I think it won't be a big problem to play like this." Whiteside was confident.

When Chu Xuan heard this, he was noncommittal. This season, Whiteside, who has been off the bench, has already made five blocks in a single game.

"Chu, Mitch has agreed, and you will replace me to coach the team while I am recuperating."

At around 11 p.m., Phil Webb's phone called.

Kupchak's agreement reassured him, and he couldn't help but look forward to the 14th game.

"Phil, leave everything to me, you can recuperate and rest."

After hanging up the phone, Chu Xuan couldn't help but feel indignant. The Lakers in the past 13 years have really been tragic and terrible. Although their players did not have the same massive injuries as in previous lives. But the bad luck doesn't seem to have gone away, but has fallen on the coaches.

First Mike De Anthony, then his brother Dan De Anthony, and now Phil Webber...... Chu Xuan couldn't help but be helpless, when did this coach's bad luck come to an end?

After a while, Chu Xuan began to prepare for coaching, he needed to think of a good way to deal with Thunder.

Soon, the time came to the early hours of the morning, and Chu Xuan's sleepiness gradually became stronger.

However, the news that followed gave him a boost.

"Just now, the Houston Rockets confirmed a deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. The Rockets sent Jeremy Lin and next year's second-round pick, Jordan Hill from the Lakers, and shooter Jodimeks, as well as $200,000 in cash compensation. ”

Chu Xuan couldn't help but nod secretly when he saw the specific content of this news.

Originally, Chu Xuan thought it was a 2-for-1 deal, but what he didn't expect was that the Rockets actually took a second-round pick.

You must know that the focus of Chu Xuan's future work is on the progress of the draft conference. And what the Lakers are urgently lacking is the draft pick, which makes Chu Xuan extremely helpless.

And now, in a trade with the Rockets, the Lakers got a draft pick, although it was only the second round, but for Chu Xuan, it was indeed extremely useful, which made him extremely happy.
