Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 297 The Lakers in the New Season
After the news of Li Tian's contract extension with the Lakers was announced, the Lakers fans were the happiest.

"The gods have returned, the Lakers champion!" Fans began to leave messages on the Lakers official website.

"The Lakers Championship!"

"The Lakers Championship!"

Looking at the details of the new contract, many Chinese fans just abused the Lakers management.

"The Lakers management is really deducting. Such a good performance only pays such a small amount of money. Brother Tian, ​​let's leave the Lakers and go to a team that can give a big contract!"

"Upstairs, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. This contract is already the best contract. You can only get so much money in the first two years. More than 500 million is the highest contract. The most important thing is that the third Year is a player option, the third year of the contract is Li Tian's fourth year in the NBA, when the time comes to give up the contract, he can sign a new big contract." Fans began to analyze.

"Yes, yes! Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"

Many people began to check the relevant contract rules.

Immediately afterwards, the Lakers announced again that the team will sign Sun Yue, the 40th overall pick in last year's second round, and sign a rookie contract with a two-year minimum salary.

According to two reports, the Lakers have become one of the most popular NBA teams in China because they have two Chinese teams.

For these outside news, he didn't care at all. After signing the contract, he became an invisible person beside Taylor. He accompanied Taylor to and from various big cities, practiced songs together, and hid behind the scenes when participating in activities.

The time came to mid-September, and the sweet life was still broken by an email from the team.

Reluctantly leaving Taylor, the last night of carnival made Taylor rest for half a day again.

The plane landed in Los Angeles.

Back in Los Angeles alone, I still seemed a little lonely, without the company of my lover, during the recovery period of the past few days, I always felt that something was missing.

The date for the Lakers team assembly has arrived. Get up early and drive to the Lakers training hall.

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

In the arena, there was the sound of dribbling. Don't think too much, it must be Kobe, not someone else.Out of understanding of teammates, those guys will not have another person to train except Kobe.

"Come here very early, train well, and I will supervise your training from today!" said the first to speak.

"Damn it, you must not be lazy and come to a bullfight."

Today is the day for the team's training camp. Kobe came here so early just for the bullfight. What he didn't expect was that Li Tian said that he was here to supervise the training. How could this be tolerated.

"Haha, I can't help it. My ankle is not healed yet. The team doctor doesn't recommend me to train." Such a shameless refusal, spreading his hands.

Kobe was helpless, but he couldn't force himself to fight the bull.

Sun Yue has already signed a contract with the team. Of course, before the signing, the Lakers management still had some concerns. After all, no guard in China had entered the NBA before.For the defending champion, every position is very important, even if it is a basic salary signing, it must be cautious.

At the Olympics, Sun Yue was very surprised, and Phil also expressed his appreciation for him.When signing the contract with Li Tian, ​​Kupchak asked specifically, and then Kobe also supported the signing, and finally the Lakers management signed the contract, and Sun Yue became a member of the team.

After signing the contract, Sun Yue contacted Li Tian several times, wanting to inquire about related matters.He was on his honeymoon, so he ignored him at all, and finally contacted him through Dayao. He just said coldly, waiting for him in Los Angeles.

Sun Yue was taken aback, thinking that it was because of the conflicts that arose during the Olympic training camp, and she hadn't calmed down yet.Finally, I went to Houston again and stayed in Houston for a day before returning to Los Angeles.

After returning to Los Angeles, I was still a little scared.

After returning to Los Angeles after the honeymoon trip with Taylor, he remembered that Sun Yue had contacted him.I quickly made an appointment and communicated briefly. With a hanging heart, Sun Yue felt at ease.

He was a little dumbfounded about this, he really didn't have the idea of ​​wearing small shoes for him, as for being afraid of being like this.

While the two were bickering, Sun Yue walked in from the arena.Li Tian was a little unhappy, he had told him before that he must come early, but now he was only half an hour early, and looked at Sun Yue coldly.

Seeing Li Tian with cold eyes, Sun Yue quickly stepped forward to explain before giving up.Of course, Sun Yue's arrival will be welcomed by many players on the team, at least someone will help with the backpack.As the only rookie of the Lakers this season, Li Tian also really wants to experience the feeling of a rookie. If it weren't for his amazing fighting power, he probably would have encountered a lot of pranks.

"Hurry up and warm up, go bullfight with Kobe!"

Instructing Sun Yue to warm up, watching him with a mournful face, Li Tian was unmoved at all.

"There is nothing to be afraid of. The Olympics are over. You all want to strengthen your training. What a great opportunity this is. You can ask Kobe for a bullfight. That player in the NBA will refuse." From the voice, I heard Out of anger, I was so frightened that I hurried to warm up.

I feel that Sun Yue's attitude has not been corrected yet, and it seems that he still needs to be beaten. If he refuses to repent, the team will correct the mistake as soon as possible.

During the bullfight between the two, Li Tian, ​​who was on the sidelines, instructed Sun Yue from time to time, swearing at him head and face.

Players came to the training hall one after another, and Phil was the last one who came late.

During the offseason, the Lakers did not make too many changes, mainly because there were no suitable players introduced.As the defending champion, if the players are not too old, they will generally not make large-scale personnel changes during the offseason.The team's championship lineup is Kobe Bryant, Gasol, Li Tian, ​​Bynum and Fisher, the main players are still there, and the important rotation Farmar, Vujacic, Walton and Skier are all on the team.

The only newly signed player is Josh Powell. In order to supplement the strength of the center position and give Gasol more rest time, the team introduced the undrafted pick in 05. It was mainly during the offseason and it was better not to be drawn The player, or a more suitable player, finally chose him. The only explanation is that he is young.

The other is the rookie player Sun Yue, so I won't go into details.

The Lakers lineup has been basically determined. If there is a subsequent transaction, it is expected to be some minor repairs, and there will be no major personnel changes.

The team rosters for the new season are:
Guards: Kobe Bryant, Derek Fisher, Jordan Farmar, Vujacic, Sun Yue;

Forward: Gasol, Li Tian, ​​Odom, Ariza, Luke Walton, Powell, Skier;

Center: Bynum, Mbenga, Mihm.

Among them, Gasol, Powell, and Li Tian are all players who can top the center position.

The Lakers ushered in good news at the beginning of the season. Last year's starting center Bynum returned from injury, and the striker's substitute Trevor Ariza also fully recovered. The team's strength has greatly increased.

The league stipulates that the regular season player list is limited to 15 players. Before the start of the new season, the number of players has reached the maximum limit.But considering the flexibility of the lineup, for Mbenga and Mihm, they are the targets of being cut by the team at any time. If they meet more suitable players, or claim some players in the middle of the season, these players can be cut.

"It's all a joke, it's not interesting!" This is the evaluation of the team's operation in Xia Tian.

But the teams that are determined to compete for the championship have more or less made some transactions.Only the two teams that participated in the finals last season did not make too many transactions. The Lakers renewed Li Tian, ​​the Celtics renewed Tony Allen, and the important substitute Posey chose to leave. The rest were small troubles.

Other teams that are determined to compete for the championship have made some transactions.

On July 2008, 7, the Pacers and the Raptors completed the transaction. They sent the All-Star center Jermaine O'Neal and the 10 No. 2008 rookie Nathan Javi to the Raptors, and got point guard TJ Strovic, forward Marceau Baston, and No. 41 rookie Roy Hibbert.After the transaction is completed, the Raptors have been placed with unlimited hopes this season. The final result remains to be tested. ESPN listed the Raptors as the top half of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

On July 2008, 7, Mosaic made a blockbuster deal, using Bobby Jackson, next year's first-round pick and another player in exchange for Artest's joining.In this regard, Mosaic also has the Big Three, becoming one of the favorites to win the championship in the new season.For Mosaic, it is a very important transaction, which makes up for the lack of the team's striker.

On August 2008, 8, the Cavaliers, Sonics and Bucks completed a big deal involving six players.The Cavaliers sent Damon Jones and Joe Smith to the Bucks for guard Mo Williams; the Bucks sent Mo and Mason to the Sonics for guard Ridnour, Cavaliers guard Damon Jones and Sonics forward Griffin; and the Sonics by sending Ridnour and Griffin, the Bucks' small forward Mason and the Cavaliers' power forward Smith.The introduction of Xiao Mo was the knight's last resort after seducing Li Tian to no avail.

The most puzzling thing is that the UAE, which is competing for the best rookie, was traded to the Nets by the Bucks.But I think it should be that the conflict with Bogut is getting bigger and bigger. In the end, the team chose Bogut and sent the UAE to the Nets.Of course, this also allowed the Arab League to get what it wanted. I didn't want to stay in Milwaukee. The market in New Jersey is bigger. The Nets' style of play in the new season is more suitable for him, and the team pays more attention to him.

After looking at the transactions of various teams, the Lakers have a high chance of defending the title, the Celtics have been weakened, and other teams have not strengthened much.The most stable is the Lakers, all the main players are there.

The most attractive part of the offseason is the Bulls. They have acquired new talented players and have the hope of rebuilding their dynasty.

Just as he was about to finish watching the offseason, Phil shouted, "Guys, come here, the new season is about to start, and the players get to know each other."

Called everyone over, and introduced the newly signed players of the team to everyone to get to know each other.

"Let me announce that during the preseason, Li will not participate in any preseason games. During this period, he will be my assistant and supervise your training. Does anyone have any comments?" Phil finished speaking and glanced coldly with everyone.

No one dared to speak, but Gasol smiled lewdly at Li Tian.

It almost scared Li Tian away.

"Okay, everyone warm up, and then start running laps around the training hall!" He began to exercise his assistant's rights and called everyone to start running laps.
