Chapter 1592 The US Team Can't Do It Either!
The players of the Los Angeles Storm are very excited tonight. Now they have become the home team of Los Angeles. The former Purple and Gold Corps disintegrated, the Sharks went to the Blazers, and the Lakers failed to even enter the playoffs.
Even the Lakers ace Kobe Bryant hinted more than once that he wanted to come to the Wind and Rain team, but coach George Karl did not agree. One is that Kobe's character is easy to destroy the team's locker room atmosphere, and the other is that Kobe's style of play is not very suitable for the team.
Although the team's personnel have changed a lot, the main force has been completely retained, and the newly added substitute players are also very interesting, all Chinese players.
If it weren't for that, it wouldn't have been right this year to fall to No. 2 in the West, making the Mavericks the champions. The same is true in the East. Except for the main players, the Brooklyn Nets have not changed, and all the bench players have been replaced by Russians, which also allows them to rank second and let the Pistons climb to the first.
But what surprised Feng Yu was that he remembered that in his previous life, the Trail Blazers could not even enter the playoffs. He did not expect that in this life, the Trail Blazers entered the playoffs again.
But it doesn't matter, if the Blazers can't even enter the playoffs, wouldn't that be another chance to abuse Paul Allen's team?
Feng Yu said to all the players in the locker room: "In this game, I ask you not only to win, but also to win big. On both ends of the offense and defense, everyone should do their best. After the playoffs, everyone can follow Coach Karl. Huaxia, as the sparring partner of the Huaxia team, the salary given to you will definitely satisfy you."
Although this year is not an Olympic year, there is a World Basketball Championship in the summer. Feng Yu also wants to check the quality of the Huaxia players he has cultivated in the past few years.
George Karl, as a champion coach, was not selected for the coaching staff of the US Dream Team, but was hired by Feng Yu as the head coach of the Huaxia team.
He was also holding back his anger, and wanted to show those who looked down on him that he won the best coach and became the champion coach, not because of a false reputation, nor by luck!
There are a total of eight Huaxia players in the roster of the Los Angeles Wind and Rain Team. Among them are the main players Dayao, Dazhi, Sun Yue, Space Yi, and Dabus who can enter the normal rotation, as well as marginal players Liu Wei, Chen Jianghua and Zhu Fangyu.
There are even some players who, although not on the roster, play in the subordinate development league and usually serve as the team's sparring partner.
The main reason is that the back line of the Wind and Rain team is too fierce. Whether it is Billups, Ginobili or Arenas, they are all masters in controlling the rhythm. Even if Arenas is not a god like in the previous life, it has been two consecutive years. Got the best sixth man, and the hit rate is very high.
And Pierce can also control the ball, so Liu Wei, Chen Jianghua, etc. don't have many chances to play, but they can also play every month. After all, the Wind and Rain team can usually decide the winner and loser with the opponent in three quarters.
The players didn't say a word, George Karl took the lead: "Boss, don't worry, although it's the playoffs, the old guys from the Blazers are not our opponents at all, the big sharks are already old, and Dayao is the most active player in the league. Good center. As for the rest of the Blazers, nothing to fear!"
"This year, Pierce, Billups and Arenas of our team were not selected to the dream team, and the same is true for the Brooklyn Nets. I think they are deliberately suppressing our two teams. . . We recreated the league's 80's rivalry, but made it impossible for other team owners to get a championship."
"This year, the Dream Team has chosen so many young people. They say they are motivated, but they ignore the experience. If I meet at the World Championships, I have the confidence to lead the Huaxia team and defeat the US team!"
Feng Yu nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, I'll wait and see how you guys win!"
Before the players played, Feng Yu went out first, walked to the locker room of the visiting team, and heard Paul Allen's voice inside.
That guy is also cheering up the players, especially the Sharks, and even said that if the Sharks can lead the team to beat the Wind and Rain,
After winning the championship, he will give the Sharks a long-term contract with a high salary next year!
Hey, didn't the big sharks jump out of the last year of the contract? So the salary of the big sharks this year should be more than 30 million US dollars. Taking the Blazers is a lot of luxury tax.
Tsk tsk, it's a pity to lose so much. Just like the big shark was not Olajuwon's opponent back then, although Dayao was not as heavy as his previous life, he maintained flexibility and had a longer range, especially restraining a traditional sitting center like the big shark.
What's more, the Blazers are the center killer~hand camp, maybe the big shark will be injured.
Feng Yu didn't knock on the door, just pushed the door open and went in.
"Who?!" Paul Allen was teaching the players an ideological and political lesson. At this time, someone dared to disturb him.
"Hi, Paul. Why are you so angry? Do you need me to introduce you to an old Chinese doctor? Go to fire!"
Paul Allen obviously couldn't understand Feng Yu's Chinese humor. He looked at Feng Yu and sneered: "Feng, this is the locker room of our Blazers."
Feng Yu shrugged: "This is the Wind and Rain Arena, and I'm the owner here. Why, aren't acquaintances welcome to greet each other? Let me see, ah, ah, there are so many big basketball stars, no wonder they can enter the postseason. Game. I heard that you are very optimistic about the quasi-number one pick next year, Auden. Are you planning to replace the Sharks with him?"
The big shark's face changed. No wonder the Blazers didn't renew his contract with him in advance. It turned out that they planned to sweep him out of the house immediately!
Paul Allen was furious: "Feng, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, how can we get the No. 1 lottery? Shaq is the ace of our team, this will not change!"
"Who knows, I heard that the first sign-and-exchange can also be traded to the draft. Maybe I remember it wrong. By the way, with so many star players, do you plan to continue to pay a huge luxury tax next year?"
The current Blazers are just like the New York Knicks in their previous life. The starters are all All-Stars with tens of millions, and even the bench players are worth a lot.
Obviously, Paul Allen wanted to win the championship by doing this, but Feng Yu didn't think so. Isn't this a copy of the original Lakers f4, and the result must be sad.
"Feng, you are trying to cause conflicts between my players. Don't you feel that you have lost your identity with these little tricks?" Paul Allen said angrily.
"I just stated a fact, but Paul, you seem to have a guilty conscience."
"Hmph, you have made so many of your Chinese players from a wind and rain team with the strength of the championship. This year, you are sure to lose!"
"I'm sure to lose?" Feng Yu glanced at Paul Allen, "Don't say your Blazers can't do this, not even your American Dream Team!"
