Chapter 14: Back-to-Back and Trading
Reporter: "Mr. Wang Meng, as far as I know, you only entered the NBA and played three games, and you are a non-draft player who entered the league, but you have played more than most draft players and even pre-test players, do you ask if this proves that you are better than them?" ”
Wang Meng: ""
Reporter: "Mr. Wang Meng, it is said that your Chinese superstar Sister Feng has spoken out and is not ready to consider you, because he has never heard of your alma mater, and your appearance is not the type she likes, what do you think about this?" Wang Meng: ""
Reporter: "Mr. Wang Meng"
Wang Meng: "The weather is good today." ”
Reporter: ""
Kobe: ""
Phil Jackson: ""
In short, dealing with the wanton revenge of the reporters, Wang Meng felt more tired than playing the whole game, and he immediately fell asleep in bed when he returned to the hotel.
On December 13th, the Lakers played against the Nets away, Wang Meng was in Dufawei, the point guard of the Nets was Harris, a fast guy, but with Rossby, his strength is not particularly strong, the speed is not faster than Rose, and he is much stronger than Rose, Wang Meng made reasonable use of instant explosion, cut 15 points and 11 assists in the whole game, and got two doubles for the first time. The Lakers beat the Nets 98-86, and Wang Meng slipped away as soon as the game ended, leaving a group of reporters who were ready to find some news from Wang Meng speechless.
"Away" Sitting on the plane, Wang Meng frowned. "It's not a good thing."
On December 15, the Lakers played away against the Wizards, Wang Meng, who played very well in the first two games, was finally tired, the Chinese system was originally weaker than the whites and blacks, Wang Meng increased his playing time for two consecutive games, took a plane every day, so that his physical strength reached the limit, and the game with the Wizards saw that his physical strength Phil wisely reduced his playing time, and the game against the Wizards Wang Meng only scored six points and three assists, and Wall who scored nineteen points and twelve assists could not be compared. The Lakers ended their winning streak 103-110.
After playing the Wizards, the Lakers immediately flew to Indiana to play against the Pacers, and the opposing leader Danny Granger played well, leading the Pacers to a 94-87 victory, and the Lakers lost two in a row.
On December 16, after playing the Pacers away, the Lakers had two days off, and then on December 18, they played against the 76ers, Wang Meng rested fully, played 25 minutes in the whole game, got 11 points and eight assists, and Kobe Bryant scored 39 points to lead the Lakers to victory over the 76ers.
After playing the 76ers, he rested for four days, and flew to Toronto on December 20 to fight the Raptors.
It turned out that this was really a parallel trade, because he was too soft, softer than Gasol, softer than Nowitzki, floating on the outside, and it didn't feel as good as Nowitzki, and Odom followed him to prevent him from dying. The Lakers won comfortably 104-94.
Finally got through the demon away, Wang Meng breathed a sigh of relief, and while still practicing his skills.
Wang Meng joined the league and played a total of eight games, averaging 10.7 points per game and 5.8 assists per game, which doesn't seem to be very good, but Wang Meng, who came on as a substitute, has actually made Phil wake up with a smile in his dreams, Wang Meng only has an annual salary of 440,000 yuan, but it is much better than Fisher, a veteran point guard with a million-dollar contract. And as a Chinese, Wang Meng's outstanding play has allowed the Lakers owner to get many opportunities for cooperation with Chinese companies, the Lakers owner is very happy, although he likes the championship, but he also likes money, the NBA league now few teams can make money, because the players' contracts are too big, an ordinary player has nearly a million contracts, and the card stars are tens of millions of contracts to serve, at present, except for Yao Ming's rockets, other teams are in a slight profit or even loss situation.
As a result, Wang Meng's value is higher.
There have also been several small transactions in the past two days.
On Dec. 15, the Rockets sent Jermaine Taylor and some cash in exchange for a protected 2011 second-round pick from the Kings.
At the same time, the Rockets-Nets-Lakers completed a three-way trade for the Rockets to send a 2012 first-round pick, Sergi Rischuk to sign the right, and to get Terrence Williams.
The Nets sent Terrence Williams, Joe Smith, the Warriors' 2011 second-round pick, the Bulls' 2012 second-round pick, Sasha Vujasic, the Rockets' 2012 first-round pick, and the Lakers' 2011 first-round protected pick.
The Lakers sent away the 2011 first-round pick, Sasha Vujasic, and got Joe Smith, the Warriors' 2011 second-round pick, the Bulls' 2012 second-round pick, and Sergi Rischuk.
These transactions are all small players, harmless, the Lakers sent Sasha Vujasic, then Wang Meng's playing time will be relatively improved, both of them are guards.
If these are small player trades, then the December 18 deal can be considered a good deal.
These deals included stars such as Lewis, Arenas and Carter, but they were all outdated and lost their original strength.
On Dec. 18, the Magic sent Rashard Lewis in exchange for Gilbert Arenas from the Wizards.
Since Lewis signed a 100 million yuan contract with the Magic to become Mr. 100 million yuan, it seems that he has lost the motivation to struggle, and he has always played like a soy sauce player, and his contract has become a garbage contract.
And the Wizards' Arenas has fallen sharply due to injuries and the impact of the gun, coupled with the conflict between the Wizards' selected champion Wall and his position, the Wizards did not hesitate to choose to trade Arenas, after all, Wall is young and has potential, unlike a Arenas who has passed his prime, it just so happens that Lewis's contract is about to expire, and the Wizards use Arenas to return to Lewis, thinking about waiting for Lewis's contract to expire and vacate the salary to sign a few big-name players to complete the rebuild.
The Magic then sent Vince Carter, Marcin Gotett and Michael Petrus from the Suns in exchange for Siddo Turkoglou, Jason Richardson and Earl Clark.
The original Flyer Carter can't fly now, and the demigods who used to be close to him can now only shoot two three-pointers from the outside, and their value is declining rapidly, and you can see how much damage injuries have to stars.
After back-to-back plays, the Lakers finally played a game at home against the Bucks on December 22. Wang Meng's opponent this time will be Demon Rookie guard Brandon Jennings, who once scored 55 points.
