"The Destroyer is a nice nickname, and I think it's perfect for you. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Of course, Chu Xuan quickly learned about some fans and the media giving LaVine a nickname, and after an intra-team training, Chu Xuan and LaVine had an exchange.

Speaking of which, since Laven's comeback, Chu Xuan has not communicated with him much, but this is not to say that he has not paid attention to Laven. On the contrary, he has been concerned about LaVine's development, after all, this is the player he has strongly asked Kupchak to select in the draft.

LaVine is really talented, he has a lot of energy on the offensive end, and he is always able to master various offensive skills very quickly, which makes him grow rapidly. Chu Xuan is quite satisfied with LaVine's current results, after all, there are not many rookies who can average 20+ points per game in their rookie season.

And, this is LaVine's first season in the NBA, and in the future, he's well positioned to grow into one of the league's most fearsome scorers.

Cultivating Laven into a super scorer is exactly what Chu Xuan is aiming for. He doesn't just insist that every player is very well-rounded. For LaVine, his requirement is to develop an offensive killer for the Lakers. And for now, this wish is very likely to come true.

"I also like this nickname, but there seem to be a lot of people who think I don't deserve it and shouldn't have it." Ravan smiled.

Chu Xuan was slightly stunned, some people said that Raven was not worthy of the nickname "Destroyer"?

Under Chu Xuan's surprised gaze, LaVine explained with a smile: "Some streetball fanatics don't want me to have this nickname, they think it's the exclusive title of Joe Hammond. ”

Chu Xuan was stunned, Joe Hammond?

Soon, Chu Xuan thought of who this person was.

Joe Hammond, a street legend in Rock Park, is a legendary street golfer of the era on a par with "Goat" Manigat and "Peewee" Kirkland. Hammond's influence on the American street scene is very far-reaching, and he has a lot of fanatics. And Hammond is famous because of "Dr. J" Julius Owen.

Dr. J was a great player in street basketball in his early days, and his skill and big hands allowed him to do a lot of things, and he was very dominant in both the street ball and professional basketball worlds. Owen had a team at Rock Park at the time, called "West Side."

In the summer of 1970, Hammond's Millbank met Dr. J's West Side in the Rock League. Millbank is a street team, and in addition to Hammond, there are also street stars such as "Peewee" Kirkland. The leader of the West City team is "Dr. J" Julius Irving, and there are many NBA players such as Knicks guard Mike Reodan.

On that day, thousands of fans flocked to Rogue Park to catch a glimpse of the long-awaited match. Fans who couldn't find seats climbed onto the bars, sat on tree branches, and simply stood on top of their cars.

That game, which is considered the greatest game in the history of Rock Park, is said to have scored 50 points in that game, completely overshadowing Dr. J.

Of course, that's just a legend, and everything is based on eyewitnesses to that game.

There may be an element of exaggeration in it, with elements of mythological Hammond. However, it's not that Hammond is being overtouted. He does have such strength, and on the street court in the United States, he is the absolute ruler and the myth of undefeated.

Such Hammond, who dominated the street basketball scene in the United States in the 60s/70s, is the emperor of Rock Park, and he has the strength to destroy any opponent, hence the great nickname "The Destroyer".

But every great athlete will have his nickname, which is like a logo.

However, this is not exclusive to these people, and others can also call them the same nickname. It's just that, for too many people, great nicknames belong only to the strongest. When you have the ability to be stronger and higher in status than the person who has this nickname, you can completely take the nickname you like for yourself.

And the influence of the nickname "The Destroyer" is only in the world of street basketball, and it is not taboo in the NBA. Therefore, it is not so unacceptable for LaVine to be given this nickname, just like the media and some NBA fans are very supportive of LaVine having this moniker.

Especially the fans of the Lakers, they hope that "The Destroyer" can become another epoch-making title after "Flyer" and "Black Mamba".

However, street basketball and Hammond's admirers saw it less so, arguing that it was a blasphemy against the "god of streetball" and claiming that LaVine did not deserve such a nickname.

"He belongs to Hammond, just like the Black Mamba belongs only to Kobe."

The sound from Rock Park is like this.

It seems that as long as LaVine dares to accept this nickname, or calls himself "The Destroyer", then he will become a public enemy of the entire American street basketball scene.

For a while, the turmoil outside was still quite big.

"Zach, if you like something, you have to do your best to fight for it, only then will you have no regrets." Chu Xuan looked at Ravin with a smile, he didn't think that it was disrespectful for Hammond to take the title "Destroyer" by others.

After all, street basketball is completely different from professional basketball, and LaVine's potential and destructive power on the offensive end make him worthy of the nickname.

"Joe Hammond may have had a great experience for a while, but that was outside the NBA, and it's too far away right now. We have to live in the moment, and of course a good nickname can only accompany the warrior, and you, after owning it, only need to work hard to make it a legend. ”

Chu Xuan smiled: "I believe that after many years, when people mention the Destroyer, the first thing that comes to mind is Zach Lavin. I think it's going to be a wonderful feeling......"

Raven was stunned and nodded abruptly, a smile as bright as the sun on his face.

"Chu, I know what to do."

……

"I love the nickname The Destroyer, I want to have it, and I'll try to make it Zach LaVine's exclusive title in the future."

Ignoring the pressure from the streetball world, Zach LaVine expressed his feelings to the world, and from today, he wants to be the "Destroyer" Zach Lavin.

The sound spread all over the world, and suddenly, the basketball world was in an uproar, Zach LaVine was so strong, he was challenging the entire street basketball world.

You know, if he can't prove that he can become a basketball player who can surpass Hammond, then he will undoubtedly become a laughing stock because of this decision.

"The significance of the Destroyer is that he is capable of destroying all those who are his enemies. Zach Lavin, look forward to your performance......"

In the midst of the turmoil all over the world, Dr. J. Julius Owen finally spoke. (To be continued.) )
