Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 682 Returning to Staples Full of Memories
Sure enough, the ancients did not deceive me. When a person is arrogant to a certain extent, he will be hit.

People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. After winning the Heat, Thunder, and Bulls in a row. abandoned.

Then came a wave of two-game losing streak.

Teacher Tony did not restrain Wade, and he scored 40 points efficiently. James was still under Li Tian's restriction, and his 17-of-6 shooting rate was only a little over 15%, scoring [-] points!
However, the Knicks were not much better. Only Li Tian scored in double figures and scored 37 points. He was unable to support himself, and finally lost the game in Miami.

In the game, O'Neal suffered from ankle discomfort when he was fighting for a rebound. D'Antoni replaced him directly to be on the safe side.

96:103 with a slight disadvantage of 7 points, lost the game.

In the last game of 10 years, they challenged the Magic away, and still lost again. Without O'Neal guarding the basket, Jordan and Howard are as technically rough, but Jordan is not Howard's opponent.

It is mainly the Knicks, not the lob team, and there are not many tactics for Jordan.

This Magic team is no longer the team that reached the finals. They realized the importance of Turkoglu and traded him back, but cheating is cheating, and the relationship has long been unable to recover. Once upon a time.

But some chemical reactions are still there. After all, the movements are still so proficient, but sometimes they complain about each other.

Carter, who was introduced last season, was also traded away. Although the changes have been great, Howard is still there. Turkoglu's return still has a positive effect on the team.

Turiaf could not limit Turkoglu at all, which was also an important reason for the team's failure.

Two consecutive losses pushed the Knicks to the position of being criticized again, as if you were still on the high throne one second, and you were directly kicked off the next second and reduced to a beggar.

All kinds of belittling came one after another. The only good news is that this time the media in New York did not join the ranks of verbal critics. We need to be more tolerant, their future is limitless!"

Fortunately, after the start of the new year, the Knicks have won a wave of three consecutive victories, winning the Eastern Conference powerhouse Pacers respectively.

Li Tian felt puzzled, what are you doing, and I didn't rob your wife, but chose three people to double-team me.Fortunately, the teammates are relatively strong, and they can give the team great support when the defensive intensity is not strong.

He only got a pitiful 24 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, and he didn't even hit double figures. He can average a triple-double player, but now he doesn't even hit double figures, which shows how much the Pacers think of him.

Bird: You goddamn little pretender, you didn’t rob, but you robbed two of my beloved rookies, all of which are the future of the Pacers, and you actually robbed them all. Damn you, how can I pretend to beep in the future!

Li Tian: I am wronged, young man, of course you want them all, you will hate me if you take away one or two, you might as well want them all, lest you only have one and have one free hand, isn’t it asymmetrical?

After winning the Spurs at home and the Suns away, Li Tian got good statistics, scoring 42 and 38 respectively. The team's record has remained second in the Eastern Conference, ranking only behind the Celtics. under.

The Knicks once again became the focus of the league, no, to be precise, Li Tian and Kobe became the focus of the team again.

This is the first time he has returned to Staples since he was traded to the Knicks. This is the first time he has faced Kobe in a game.It's just that the identities of the two are different. One is the Lakers boss wearing No. 24, and the other is wearing the No. 0 jersey, but it is no longer the Zijin jersey, but the Knicks' No. 0!
Before the start of the game, Li Tian took O'Neal away from the team and came to the Lakers training center. This was an invitation from Kobe. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, but they just wanted to see each other.

"Fatty man, oh no, you are not as fat as before!" Kobe saw O'Neal for the first time, and once again felt the change in O'Neal's body shape. Now he can only be said to be slightly fat, and his weight has reached 260 catties. It doesn't look so fat anymore.

It has been very painful recently. He has lost nearly 15 kilograms of weight, which cannot be said to be crazy.Of course, he mainly kept his mouth shut, and he didn't do much with his legs.

"Cauliflower Snake, you damn bastard, I must kill you!"

As soon as the two met, they were like two young children who knew how to bicker.

However, Li Tian and Phil have long been used to it, just watching their performance with a smile, without saying a word or interrupting them.We all know that if we interrupt them at this time, we can only prolong the bickering time. Of course, if we don't interrupt them, they will stop immediately when they get tired.

"Are you tired?" Phil said with a smile.

The two stopped knowingly. Phil didn't leave, but he also had his own ideas. He hoped to talk about the position of the Knicks head coach through Li Tian.

His contract renewal with the Lakers has been put on hold. He hopes to negotiate with the Lakers through the Knicks, using the Knicks as a springboard. His goal is still the Lakers, and he hopes to get some equity, and at the same time, his sister will also be taken away.

Sensing Phil's purpose, Li Tian didn't say much, but said that D'Antoni is doing very well now, and directly stopped Phil's words.

"Li, your performance is really good recently, but the next thing you will meet is us, the Lakers with me, you have no chance!" Kobe was still a stinky fart as always, wanting to hit the old boy in front of him.

"Cauliflower Snake, don't talk nonsense, what's wrong with the Lakers, what's wrong with you, isn't it still reversed 3:1, what is there to be proud of." It's not like O'Fat is used to Kobe, and the two started bickering again .

"Paul, how are you feeling recently?" Looking at Gasol sitting next to him.

Seeing that he could not achieve his goal, Phil left the training hall directly, feeling resentful but helpless.

"It's not bad, I have more space around the basket."

Gasol said with a smile, he didn't expect that the guy in front of him, the Grizzlies could choose such a strong player at random.

If they hadn't been traded back then, the Grizzlies would have valued the guy in front of them, maybe the Grizzlies would have won a championship, of course, all of this is an assumption.

"Haha, it seems that you are doing well. Are you interested in coming to the Knicks?" Li Tian knows that the guy in front of him will still have good combat power even after four or five seasons. If the Knicks can sign Without him, the strength of the team will instantly expand.

Its influence is not weaker than that. When Gasol joined the Lakers, it was even stronger. Their starting lineup can be said to have no major loopholes. Teacher Tony can't handle the ball, but Li Tian can. question.

"Forget it, I live very comfortably in Los Angeles." Gasol quickly refused. He didn't want to leave the Lakers. He hoped that he could die in Los Angeles. After all, he gained everything here.

"Okay, let's talk about this later, and I won't force you!"

The two chatted casually, and Li Tian and O'Neill sent O'Neill back to the hotel, and he returned to his home in Los Angeles.

After a long absence, there is still a familiar strangeness.

******
"MVP! MVP! MVP!" The shouts of the mountains and the tsunami, when Li Tian walked out of the player channel, the fans shouted.

Tens of thousands of fans, wearing the No. 0 jersey, shouted his name in the arena!

It's pride, but it's also happiness. Even O'Neill feels a little bit emotional. Back then, he didn't enjoy such treatment. After all, he also played a dynasty for the Lakers.

In fact, I can’t blame others, because when he left, he had a lot of trouble with the team, and in the end the team was almost torn apart by him. Back then, Bass was still angry, so how could he hold such a ceremony for him.

At the same time, Li Tian's meaning is also different. He stayed for three years, the team won three consecutive championships, and won the MVP in the last season!

It also broke up with the team peacefully, without any unhappiness, and left some assets for the team. Although the assets are not that high-quality, they are still good.

Many people think that if the Lakers don't sign you a new contract, Li Tian won't be able to earn that much money, and his income will drop a lot.

This kind of thing is rarely done by teams, especially Li Tian is still so young. Even if you don't sign first and then trade, the Knicks are still capable of compensating the money from other aspects.

Dolan has so many companies, just sign an endorsement contract at will, and Stern will not agree to this matter.

This time, Bass also wants to befriend Li Tian. When his contract expires, Kobe will soon retire. The Lakers keep this affection, not without a glimmer of hope!
The Lakers specially held a championship awarding ceremony for him at Staples!
The one who presented the ring was none other than Kobe, who was going to attack him yesterday, which also meant inheritance. Buss took great pains, and he hoped to have the opportunity to sign him back to the Lakers again.

"Man, I have to feel that after leaving the Lakers, you have become stronger. Now is your era, try to fight for it, and step on all of them!" Kobe said with a smile.

They are all the same kind of people, needless to say too much, no one is easy to stay behind.If it weren't for the three consecutive championships, Li Tian might have chosen to leave the Lakers long ago instead of continuing to assist Kobe.

"Haha, that's a must. I'm a genius. This year's Lakers seem to be a little weak!" couldn't help joking.

"As long as I'm here, the Lakers will maintain the hope of competing for the championship. Today's victory must stay at Staples!"

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, just looked at each other and smiled, and understood everything.

"Li, can you tell me, what did Kobe say to you just now?" the host raised the microphone and asked.

"Kobe just said that, asking me if I still remember, when he was just traded to the Lakers, he beat me so hard that I couldn't fight back in a one-on-one match!" Laughing, he said nonsense here in a serious manner.

"Oh, well, can you tell me who won your last bullfight?" The reporter asked with great interest.

The first bullfight, everyone knows the result without guessing. If he can win Kobe, he will not be a substitute for the Lakers for nearly a year.

"You have to ask Kobe about this, I remember him like."

Kobe snatched the microphone in the middle of speaking, and the action was so fast, he looked like a young man in his 20s.

"You don't even need to ask, of course it's another blow!" Bryant shouted.

The fans also became excited, shouting the names of the two.

"Li, can you tell me about how you've been with the Lakers for a few seasons?" The host will not ask provocative questions at this time.

"Life in the Lakers, I am very happy. I spent my rookie season on this court. I love this court. Every floor has my sweat.

Also, it is these lovely fans, it is their every shout that brings me endless strength, it is their encouragement again and again that allows me to score every goal.

Thanks to Kobe, in these three seasons, for my support, he taught me a lot, we are the closest friends and comrades-in-arms, always will be, even though I am now wearing a Knicks jersey, but I still remember that I have a Knicks jersey. Heart of the Lakers.

And Paul Fisher. They told me over and over again, you can, you are the best, and I will”

Every word I said, I would hug a Lakers player affectionately.

Taylor: Let go quickly, he is mine, don't fight me!
The hoarse shouts of the fans echoed in Staples. All of this is so familiar, but there is also a sense of strangeness, because none of the fans in the audience is wearing the Knicks No. 0 jersey.

"Li, you love these fans so much, you love every floor here, and you also have a Zijin heart. In the future, will you come back to this arena again and wear a Zijin jersey again?" The host will not Miss every opportunity, every opportunity to call Li Tian back.

"Haha, the future is unknown, who knows, I won't wear the Zijin jersey again in the future!"

He didn't block this road, and he didn't say for sure that he would return to the Lakers again. There was still a long time in the future, and everything had to wait until the end of this contract.

No one knows where their next stop is.

Before the start of the ring awarding ceremony, Buster exchanged a few words with him, roughly meaning that'the Lakers welcome you back at any time, and the door is always open for you.Even if you don't want to return to the Lakers, only you can wear your jersey. We will seal the No. 0 jersey. If you don't come back, the Lakers will retire this jersey for you when you leave the league.Unfortunately, a statue cannot be erected for you. '

As for why there is no statue, it is mainly because the Lakers still have their harsh conditions. After all, the Lakers' three consecutive championships, his contribution is still quite different from Kobe's last three consecutive championships. Of course, Buss also hinted that if Being able to come back again, the statue will definitely have his.
