14. Kupchak is a little annoying
After the regular season, the Lakers held a party after reaching the playoffs, and no matter what, they still made the playoffs this year. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Well, you have to have a drink, and Howard told his friend about his unhappiness with the Lakers after drinking, and his friend sold the news to ESPN, a famous sports television station.
Liu Ren also drank a little wine, and only Thackeray, Jamison, Blake, Artest, Clark and a few others drank with him, and the others were not very familiar, these people were more cooperative in these two games and began to get acquainted. Good guys like Gasol and Kobe Bryant didn't come because of injuries, and the two are unlikely to play in this year's playoffs.
After a few drinks, Liu Ren returned to his small apartment.
"It's getting more and more inconvenient." Liu Ren glanced downstairs and shook a few reporters from time to time.
Liu Ren played very well in these two games, if he was placed on a team without Kobe and Howard, he would have been blown upside down, but despite this, he still gained huge attention, but in the past few days, he devoted himself to the last regular season game and did not pay so much attention.
In this era of information explosion, a player who has been sitting on the cold bench has been given a chance to break out in two consecutive games of 25+ because of injuries to the starter and main substitutes, which is very inspiring!
Especially this player is still a Chinese, it is even more touching, why is this touching, Liu Ren, who finally got a few days of rest, read a lot of news and comments and didn't understand, but judging from the fans' replies, I just felt touching......
Now the news channels are very developed, and after the occurrence of a thing that people are interested in, even the protagonist of the event may not even react to what he has done, and people all over the world already know about it.
For example, what Howard and his friends said was slightly polished by ESPN, and the title became "Lakers infighting, the new king wants to escape Los Angeles".
Someone questioned that this was fake news? Who could say such a brain-dead thing when the playoffs were about to start?
ESPN's attention skyrocketed, and they immediately responded that it was from the two sources who sold the news to ESPN, and it was said that Howard and his best friends said about it. As for who the source is, I'm sorry it's inconvenient to disclose, and we can go to him and confront him if I don't believe Howard said this......
When Liu Ren saw the news, he knew that Howard was going to become the happy beast in the eyes of fans from this year. He believed that there was a 90 percent chance that Howard had said it, not a lie.
As far as the Howard that Liu Ren knew in his later life, he would definitely do such a thing, and these things had already happened once in the months before he left the Magic.
It is said that Hollywood screenwriters are very powerful, but those screenwriters have to be deflated when they get to the NBA, and the good performances staged by the three superstars of James, Anthony, and Howard in recent years have made those screenwriters dare not write like this.
I have long known that these things can't be stopped, Liu Ren's life is still the same as in the past few days, getting up in the morning to watch the news for a while, taking a taxi to the team training hall, going to the training hall to do strength training, starting to master the strength of this body, and then practicing shooting for a while in the afternoon.
Shooting training is important for persistence, and persistence is the most important thing.
Liu Ren seems to have returned to the age of twelve or thirteen, when he just had the strength to shoot three points, and playing basketball became more fun and passionate for him from shooting the ball every day and throwing the ball into the basket from under the basket to play. Since then, I have a dream of becoming a professional basketball player, and I devote myself to basketball every day after school.
"Playing" boring things as interesting things has reduced a lot of boredom, and it seems that there is really fun. Just like fat people fitness, exercising every day, you may not see any change in fat on the day of exercise, or even for several days, but you can exercise for a while every day, know that you have progressed, and treat this progress as fun, it is really fun.
Liu Ren shot the same number of baskets every day, on the first day a group of 100 balls, ten in each of the five positions of the mid-range shot and the three-point shot, at the beginning of each group of each position at most three shots, at the beginning he was about to collapse.
You must know that even Saty Thackeray, who is known as the "anti-sky" shooting ability, and Howard, the king of free throws, hit more than 50% of their three-point shots during training, and even more than 70% of their free throws.
However, because it is too bad, there is no room for worse for him to become worse, as long as he trains, there is progress, and it is an improvement that can be seen with the naked eye......

Kupchak is a little annoyed right now.
There is a hidden genius in his own team, and now the genius has exploded, logically speaking, as the first boss of the team except for the owner, Kupchak should be the happiest one, but he found that this genius's contract is about to expire.
It's okay that it's about to expire, but the rookie base salary contract is about to expire, and the team has the right of first refusal to renew it.
But the right of first refusal has now been rectified, the first round of rookies is okay, and the second-round rookie who has signed a three-to-four-year contract is not afraid of being robbed, and a rookie like Liu Ren, who has only signed a two-year 1+1 contract, is the easiest to be robbed if he plays talent.
Thinking of this, Kupchak wanted to pull out Morey's dead fat man and beat him up, this lewd fat man was so smart that he did something last summer that would have a huge impact on future second-round rookies.
Everybody knows there's a rule, but everybody uses it as a rule to lower the new Super Second-round pick contract that expires, and no one uses it to poach people.
When Morey offered Jeremy Lin and Asik a three-year, $25 million contract to occupy the cap salary space in the third year, the general managers of the Knicks and the Bulls directly scolded their mothers.
Knicks and Bulls, two championship-level teams, where to get the salary space of 15.27 million last year? Even if this space is in the summer of 2014, it will not be freed up! And Asik only played for two years and didn't have the big bird clause, and Jeremy Lin only played for one year with the Knicks and didn't have the big bird clause. The Knicks and Bulls, whose salaries have long exceeded the salary cap, can only provide them with a salary with an early bird clause, and the Knicks and Bulls, who had a base salary of 1.2 million, can only give the two a contract offer of less than 2 million, and are not qualified to match Morey's poison contract.
The so-called Big Bird clause is the full name of the Larry Bird Clause, and when you renew your contract with the team, if you have played for more than three consecutive years in the team before that, you will be eligible to use the Big Bird Clause, and you will be able to renew the contract regardless of the salary cap.
The early bird clause is far from the same, and applies to a player who has played for less than two years with a team, and if the team wants to renew his contract, even if the team's salary exceeds the salary cap, he can ignore the salary cap and use 175% of the previous year's salary to renew the contract, which is considered compensation for the player who is willing to stay with the team.
Last year, Kupchak was still the one who watched the jokes of the Knicks and the Bulls, there are at most one or two second-round picks at the annual salary level of tens of millions of years, as the top team in the league, the Lakers are different from the Knicks and the Bulls, which are rare teams that have been strong for more than ten years and have been strong for two years, and the Lakers are rare not to enter the playoffs for a few years, Kupchak thinks that it is difficult for the Lakers to have the opportunity to cultivate second-round picks, so they are happy to watch jokes.
But it's only been less than a year, and this matter is likely to fall on him, which is particularly embarrassing, Kupchak looked through Liu Ren's team files, and couldn't find it over and over again......
