"Jenny, the Lakers' new season is not optimistic. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

In Los Angeles, in a private mansion, Phil Jackson leaned on the head of the bed in his pajamas, looked at his wife Jenny Buss, who had just finished bathing, and said with a serious expression.

"Hmph, let Jim and Jimmy have another year of jubilation!"

Jeanne Bass stood in front of the mirror, did not turn around, kept wiping her wet blonde hair, snorted coldly, and said in a faint tone.

"Jenny, you haven't given up on the idea of taking charge of the Lakers?"

Phil Jackson smelled a strong killing intent from his wife's tone, and couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and asked helplessly, in fact, the Zen master knew in his heart that this sentence was very unnutritious, and he knew best what Jenny Bass wanted.

"The family business and glory that my father worked so hard to build cannot be destroyed in the hands of that wreck, all I want to do is inherit my father's will and rebuild the glory of the Lakers."

Thinking of the current situation of the Lakers, Jeanie Buss gritted her teeth with hatred, and Jim Buss could not escape the blame for the Lakers' fall from the championship division to the bottom of the league.

"Well, Jenny, I support your decision no matter what."

Jenny Bass's temperament, Zen master knows best, husband and wife in the same boat, Zen master will naturally support his wife behind the scenes.

"Phil, with your words, I'm relieved."

Jeanne Bass dried her blonde hair, turned around, lifted the futon with a smile, leaned against Phil Jackson's chest, and said softly.

Phil Jackson extinguished the lamp at hand, hugged Jenny Buss's petite body, and vented his longing for many days in the dark.

Compared with the Knicks' highlight performance last season, the Lakers continue to sink, and after winning the list for two consecutive years, the Lakers in the new season are full of ambition and eager to return to the ranks of the strong teams.

In the offseason, the Lakers poached veteran and Warriors assistant coach Luke Wharton, signed Mozgov, Ruel Deng and Chinese player Yi Jianlian, and paired with high-pick players Randle, Russell and Ingram for three consecutive years, hoping to shine in the new season.

Although this lineup seems to have unlimited potential, it is not one or two grades worse than the former champion division, and Kobe's retirement has made the Lakers obviously lack of stardom, you know, the Los Angeles Lakers have never lacked superstars in their history, and the Lakers in front of them do not even have a famous star.

The Zen master's concern is not unreasonable, and Jim Buss's vow is only two seasons away, and if the Lakers still can't return to the championship by then, then Jim Buss has no reason to hold the Lakers again.

Kubchak's intention to poach Wharton is obvious, hoping that the Lakers can replicate the Warriors' successful model to achieve the purpose of reviving the Lakers, knowing that Kubchak and Jim Bass are grasshoppers on a rope, and once Jim is out of power, Kubchak will also be ruthlessly swept away.

Wharton's life trajectory is somewhat similar to that of a Zen master, the player period was mediocre, but the coaching methods are breathtaking, if it were not for the appearance of Wang Zhuo, I am afraid that the title of "Zen master successor" is definitely Wharton, Rao is so, Wharton is also the only coach in NBA history who has no coaching win rate, but won the NBA Coach of the Month title.

If you want to stand tall in the NBA, a strong team is full of powerhouses, and a good head coach alone is completely unacceptable, so it is almost impossible for the Lakers to replicate the success of the Warriors by poaching Wharton, because the Lakers do not have Curry, Thompson, Green, Durant, Iguodala, or even a player who is the core of the game.

The first two games of the preseason are the epitome of the Lakers' new season, the first game against the Kings, the Lakers shot 30 three-pointers, and in the end only 8 hits, although the Lakers won the final victory, but such a dismal three-point shooting rate wants to compare with the Warriors, pure fantasy.

Saying that one game doesn't mean anything, the Kings' defensive level is almost at the bottom of the league, and in the face of such a defense and shooting such a scummy three-point shooting rate, then the result against a strong defensive team can be imagined.

If the game against the Kings exposed the problems on the offensive end, then the game against the Nuggets completely exposed the weakness of the defensive end, the whole game, the Nuggets grabbed 60 rebounds, 15 more than the Lakers, on the one hand, it shows that the Lakers' defense is not effective, on the other hand, it also shows how fast the offensive rhythm on the court is.

The Lakers imitated the Warriors' fast-paced offense, but they didn't have players with the Warriors' tactical execution, and the addition of Durant made the Warriors more powerful, so blindly imitating the Warriors, this Lakers team had no chance of getting ahead at all.

Of course, these are only things that the Zen master and Jeanne Bass are concerned about, and Wang Zhuo does not pay attention to them, because they have no direct influence on him.

The pre-season is the final moment of the team's selection of the team's 15-man squad, and each team focuses on training, hoping to tap potential players who fit the team's tactical system, but Wang Zhuo is not worried about this, because in his mind, the team's lineup is almost determined.

Although each team will select 15 players to be the squad for the new season, there are only about 8 to 9 players who can actually play on the field, and if it is not for injuries, the rest of the players are either on the bench or on the water cooler.

Wang Zhuo has 10 players in mind, and the 10-man rotation in the regular season is more than enough, and even rigid coaches often rotate 8-man, such as Knicks assistant coach Jeff Van Gundy, when he coaches the Rockets, he is often an 8-man rotation lineup.

Back in New York, Wang Zhuo stayed in the Tai Chi Health Center for two days, preparing for the second matchup of the preseason, the Knicks played at home against the Brooklyn Nets, if it is placed in the regular season, the New York derby is still a bit interesting, but now it is a preseason, there are not many gimmicks to dig at all.

Not to mention the lack of attention to the game itself, in terms of the comparison of the strength of the two sides, the Nets can't compete with the Knicks at all, the Nets in the offseason have no bright spots except for signing Jeremy Lin, and the strength of the team is not even up and down compared with last season, and the collision with the Knicks' talented lineup is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

In the end, the Knicks easily broke through the Nets at home and won the second preseason victory, this game, Wang Zhuo did not send Noah and Rose, only relied on Grant, Porzingis, Anthony, Jennings and O'Quinn, plus Ray Allen on the bench, there was no suspense to play Kai.

The main theme of the showdown between East New York and West Los Angeles seems to be far away, but Wang Zhuo has a hunch that in the near future, this theme will reappear in the alliance.
