"Are you happy?"

"Of course."

Bai Fan and O'Neill played happily for two days, just like two friends for many years, who are busy with each other on weekdays, and get together on a rare holiday, in addition to playing or playing.

The two people who were tired of playing were lying on the beach chairs, and when the sun was setting, they almost hugged each other left and right.

"Is it fun to play in the Lakers?"

O'Neill didn't answer, and after two days, he felt that Bai Fan was good and had a good temper.

"I heard that the Lakers are going to sign Gary Payton and Karl Malone this summer, you have to know that Kobe Bryant doesn't give you face, how can you take care of the face of the two of them, the result of the four of you together will not be much better than this year's Suns."

Whether the Lakers have contacted the two now, Bai Fan is not clear, but I believe that it will not be long before the Lakers will definitely make contact, as long as O'Neal hears the news at that time, he will remember today's chat.

"I'm just a player, I don't know what Lakers management thinks."

O'Neill is really doing a good job at this point. Having been through so many teams in his career, only the team is sorry for him, and he is not sorry for any team.

Starting from the Magic, O'Neal played his value, but he didn't wait for a contract to come to the Lakers, and the peak was completely given to the Lakers and brought a dynasty to the Lakers, but he failed to retire with the Lakers.

Even if there was a stalemate with both teams, it didn't hurt the team.

"Shaq, you can't not know, you've been in the league for more than ten years, and your peak is running out, three years, five years?

Even with five years left, can you bear to watch the Lakers waste one of your precious years?

Honor, money, you don't lack it, why don't you make yourself happy in the remaining five years. ”

"Can you be happy with the Suns?"

"You are the core, the only core, and I can guarantee you this right now.

Marion I spoke to him personally and made it clear that he would not fight for the top spot.

Marbury has been sent away, and the ball is divided by rookie Wade, who will be your best helper.

The team will only have three of you in the starting lineup, and the other two positions are blue-collar role players and both defensive snickers.

As long as you arrive, the team can immediately build a championship team around you. ”

Bai Fan could see that O'Neill was moved for a moment, but he didn't agree immediately, there were too many things involved, as long as it could have an effect this time, do his best and obey the destiny of God.

Even without O'Neal, the Suns would not have won the championship.

It's not easy to find a center comparable to O'Neal in the league, and there are still a few centers that are a notch lower than O'Neal.

It's really not good, dig the corners of the big four forwards, and there will always be a piece that will loosen.

Bidding farewell to O'Neal, Bai Fan returned to Phoenix, and the Suns have experienced two games in the summer league, beating the Spurs 85-76 and the Nuggets 88-83.

In the contest between Wade and Anthony, Wade got 27 points, 7 assists, 3 rebounds and 3 steals.

David West also performed well against the Spurs, with 19 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks.

What surprised Rick Carlisle the most was that Ragabel showed his defensive ability when facing Anthony, and Anthony only scored 15 points in the whole game, teaching this new scout a good lesson.

Several other players also showed their performance in the summer league, and after two games, Rick Carlisle was also remarkable for both offensive and defensive ends of Calderon and Haslem, and immediately decided to sign the two.

As the game continued, the Suns players, who had a smoother run-in, were invincible and invincible, winning all the way to the summer league and successfully winning the championship.

In the media, Wade's name was listed with James and Anthony for the first time.

After the loss to Wade, Anthony's performance also exploded, averaging 21.8 points per game in summer league, second only to Wade's 24.1 points.

The most eye-catching thing is James, who averaged 18.7 points per game in the summer league, which made people worry that the champion would be gone.

In August, when the team started the holiday and all summer league was over, the NBA's trade market began to break the news.

The most exciting thing is that Payton intends to join O'Neal and wants to get a championship ring, and Malone also expressed his willingness to join the Lakers after Payton.

The two twilight veterans want to be shameless when they can't fight at all.

As soon as such news broke, the teams in the whole league stopped doing it.

The Lakers with an OK combination, and then sign two old fritters who are willing to take a pay cut to join, is it good for such a lineup to directly give them championships.

I don't know when, there was a remark on the Internet, Peyton is here to follow O'Neal, Malone is to follow Peyton, you have the ability to poach O'Neal, so that you can also get Peyton and Malone.

Bai Fan didn't know that this was the Lakers fan's loss of mind, he didn't laugh directly when he saw this post, he didn't take advantage of such a good opportunity, he simply looked down on the power of the Internet.

All of a sudden, seven or eight teams, including the Suns, made offers to the Lakers in the hope of trading O'Neal.

"If you don't want to be kicked by the Lakers in your final year, making an appointment is the smartest decision.

The most important thing is the veto of transactions in recent years, without him, he will also be kicked out. ”

Bai Fan 'did his best' to send a text message to O'Neill, who was still on vacation.

You can only touch fish in muddy waters, let alone big sharks.

A few days later, the signing of Malone and Payton was still in progress, and another exciting news was reported by the media.

The Lakers refused to make an early appointment with O'Neal, and O'Neal forced the team to trade.

O'Neal really went to make an appointment for a contract, and in order to stabilize O'Neal, the Lakers also agreed to renew the contract, and when O'Neal proposed a trade veto, the Lakers turned the table and quit.

The contradiction between O'Neal and Kobe has been put on the table, and giving O'Neal the veto at this time is not an obvious intention to send Kobe away.

The meaning of the rejection is clear, O'Neal knows that he has been abandoned, and the Lakers have chosen the younger Kobe Bryant to be their core.

O'Neal remembered Bai Fan's words, there are still a few years of peak, why should he suffer from this nest in the Lakers, playing, and being happy is the most important thing.

On the spot, he asked the Lakers to trade him this offseason, and turned around to inform the media that the Lakers were not renewing their contracts and that they were leaving.

Everything is developing according to Bai Fan's heart, O'Neal said goodbye to the Lakers a year in advance, and the league pattern will also undergo a major reshuffle because of O'Neal's trade.

In the end, whether they can snatch this fat meat in the wolves depends on whether the Lakers give O'Neal the right to choose.

If, as historically, only sharks are allowed to swim east, the Suns will have too much to pay.
