"Mitch, no matter what, the Lakers can't continue to sink, remember, no matter what!"

At the Staples Center in Los Angeles, Kubček was summoned by Jim Bass's assistant and walked into Jim Bass's office. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Kupchak knows best why Jim Buss is so anxious, because he, like Buss Jr., spends his days worrying about the Lakers' plight.

The Lakers experienced Kobe's retirement in the offseason, and their ambitions were to poach Durant, but the basket was in vain, and no star was willing to accept Kobe's legacy.

The free agent market didn't catch big fish, even if it was a bargaining chip, it didn't attract big-name stars, and although the Warriors' assistant coach Luke Wharton was poached in hopes of replicating the Warriors' successful model, the reality was callous.

In Game 7 of the regular season, the Lakers had a 1-6 record, and a five-game losing streak at the beginning of the game shattered Jim Buss's self-woven dream.

On the other hand, the Knicks, after a blockbuster in the second half of last season, are making great progress in the new season, with a record of 7 wins that shocked the whole league and made opponents frightened for a while.

Bass Jr. is extremely unbalanced in his heart, why the Lakers have been slumping since kicking out the Zen master, why the Knicks got the Zen master, in just two seasons, they have achieved a big turnaround, why no matter what they do, they will always lack the domineering of Old Bass and the wisdom of Jenny.

These are just internal worries, and the team's external troubles are just like that, since the old Buss whined, the Clippers rose overnight and took away the title of the king of Los Angeles, which is almost an unprecedented shame in the history of the Lakers.

"Jim, Rome wasn't built in a day."

Kubcek walked over to Bass's desk and sat down, and whispered, hoping to soothe Bass.

"I know nothing can be achieved overnight, but it's been four seasons, and the Lakers haven't made any improvement, time waits for no one, and we can't afford to lose."

Bass Jr. did not blame Kubček, because the only person he could rely on in his mind was Kubcek, and he did not want to lose this last straw.

Little Bas is unwilling, unwilling to give up the family inheritance that he has fought so hard for, and even more unwilling to let Jenny always press him, in his heart, Jenny is just a scheming who relies on outsiders, and is also an outsider who is a bad old man to grab power.

However, such a Laker makes people see no hope, Kobe's retirement has made the entire Lakers look starless, and even the ticket revenue that they rely on has shrunk significantly, and even more so, many hardcore Lakers fans have begun to switch to the Clippers, after all, no one wants their home team to be a team that is abusive.

After saying that, little Bas rested his elbows on the desk and buried his head between his arms, Kubček didn't know what to say, sat next to him without saying a word, and quietly accompanied little Bass.

In the Staples Center Arena, the game between the Knicks and the Lakers reached the middle of the third quarter, the score on the court was 75-60, and the Lakers were 15 points behind at home, and the outcome did not seem to be much suspense.

The only thing that deserves media attention is probably the duel between Wang Zhuo and Wharton, two young and talented head coaches.

Although Wang Zhuo and Wharton have known each other for a long time and have met several times, it is the first time to really compete as the head coach of the team.

Wang Zhuo understands that Walton is not doing well with the Lakers, because the Lakers' performance in the new season is not bad at all as Wang Zhuo's previous guess, and Wharton, as the head coach, is also burdened by the Lakers' unimproved record.

Wharton is full of talent, Russell is embarrassed, Ingram is too immature, Clarkson has no leadership temperament, and the whole team can't control the Warriors' flowing fast-break mode

Wang Zhuo sympathized with Wharton's plight, but sympathy is sympathy, but there was no ambiguity on the court, Wang Zhuo was instructed by the Zen master that he must play a triangle offense against the Lakers, and he must give Busas Jr. a crisp and resounding slap.

"What an unreasonable old man."

When he received the Zen master's instructions, Wang Zhuo smiled bitterly and shook his head, but Wang Zhuo was happy to be a favor, after all, the triangle attack was the Zen master's life's work, and defeating the Lakers with a triangle attack could be regarded as the Zen master's ruthless counterattack to the old club.

With Porzingis on the inside, Anthony on the front, Rose on the scoring guard, Noah on the defensive and Grant who knows the essence of the triangle attack, the Staples Center reproduces the Zen master's triangle attack, but this is the opponent's tactical routine, which cannot but be said to be a kind of irony.

The Knicks' strength and talent were already superior, and coupled with the subtlety of the triangle offensive strategy, the Lakers only lasted until halftime, and then they were constantly defeated.

As a Lakers veteran and a disciple of the Zen master, Wharton is clear about the routine of the triangle offense, but the result is that he knows how to defend it, but he can't prevent it at all, and he still can't stop the opponent from scoring goals.

Bass Jr. held back his anger, sat in his office and watched the game between the Lakers and the Knicks, how could he not know the sinister intentions of Phil Jackson, and he guessed that this was Jenny's **** idea, but he could only bear it and was powerless to fight back.

The game is not over yet, the home players have begun to leave the arena one after another, perhaps in the eyes of the fans, no matter what the result, the Lakers are hopeless after all, and there is no more sadness than death.

The referee blew the final whistle, the score was fixed at 110-92, and the Knicks beat the Lakers with 18 points, extending the winning streak and striding forward.

Yi Jianlian, as a substitute for Julius Randle, played about 8 minutes, got three shots, hit two balls, 5 points and 2 boards, and performed decently.

Wang Zhuo looked at this big man from China, not only sighed, Yi Jianlian, who was born in 87, had just crossed the threshold of 30 years old, but he was old, and the bounce height was not as good as before, but fortunately, the feel was still delicate and soft.

After the game, Wang Zhuo invited Yi Jianlian and Wharton to have a meal together, during the banquet, Wang Zhuo joked intentionally or unintentionally, asking Wharton to give Yi Jianlian more opportunities to play, and got Wharton's chest pat assurance, Yi Jianlian scratched his head, and his face was full of shyness mixed with a trace of gratitude.

In Wang Zhuo's view, Yi Jianlian is not a long-term solution in the Lakers after all, and he has the intention to dig Yi Jianlian to New York and make him China's first champion star.

The victory over the Lakers may just be a snack before the feast, but the real storm is about to unfold, and after leaving the Staples Center, the Knicks immediately head to the Golden State for a shocking showdown with the Warriors at Oracle Arena.
