Chapter 603 The Cunning Fox

The spread of Lin Feng's trading conditions aroused criticism from the industry.

No matter how good Billups scores, no matter how amazing Boozer's potential is, if you want to change Kobe who has just entered the peak period or O'Neal who is in the peak period, it is simply a dream, unless the Lakers are really stupid!

Madman, idiot, fool... and other nicknames have been put on Lin Feng. Lin Feng paid no attention to the irony of the media. When Lin Feng issued this declaration, he didn't expect the Lakers to agree. The defending champion who has just won three consecutive championships, no matter what kind of trade he faces, even if it is the current hot-selling Garnett or Iverson in the league, the management of the Los Angeles Lakers will not agree. After all, there has never been a reason to dismantle a pair of champions, unless it is necessary to dismantle them.

Obviously, both Kobe and O'Neal have not really reached the point of meeting each other, or the point where one of them must be sent away.

Lin Feng said so, just to remind reporters that the core of the Los Angeles Lakers, Kobe and O'Neal just had a quarrel. Although Lin Feng did not say anything, many reporters are like monkeys, monkeys, monkeys, and when Lin Feng clicked on it, everyone immediately remembered the incident and immediately rushed back to Los Angeles and surrounded the Los Angeles Lakers’ stand. Puss Arena, squatting outside, trying every means to get the news, wants to see if Kobe and O'Neal are really at odds, and whether the Los Angeles Lakers will really trade one of the "ok" combinations.

Humph, I want to fix my team, no way! ——Lin Feng hummed coldly.

This situation is definitely beyond the expectations of Phil Jackson and general manager Kupchak who made this plan. They just wanted to take the opportunity to divert the attention of the media and add chaos to the Houston Rockets by the way. Unexpectedly, Lin Feng's smashing of the boat, instead of throwing the Los Angeles Lakers into public criticism.

Damn Chinese boy, you cunning fox! ——Los Angeles Lakers general manager Kupchak, looking at the crowd of reporters outside the arena, gritted his teeth and cursed.

Lin Feng’s trading conditions were extremely insidious. Not only did the media’s attention be shifted to O’Neal and Kobe again, and the Houston Rockets got out of the vortex, but what’s more vicious is that no matter how Kupchak rejects the deal now, how to claim Kobe. And O'Neal is not for sale. As long as Boozer and Billups get better and better in the future, this rumor will continue to haunt the Los Angeles Lakers.

Phil Jackson shrugged and left after he was speechless. He is just the head coach, not the general manager. These things are beyond his control. Although he proposed the plan, he is really interested in Birups and Boozer. If it’s troublesome, let’s let General Manager Kupchak get a headache.

Later, after pacifying O'Neal and Kobe, Lakers general manager Kupchak repeatedly declared that Kobe and O'Neal will be the cornerstones of the Lakers and are not for sale. The Lakers will never agree to trade any of Kobe and O'Neal.

After Kupchak's repeated explanations, the trading turmoil has subsided. However, affected by this, the Lakers only achieved an ordinary record of 6 wins and 4 losses in the first 10 games, while the Houston Rockets have won 10 consecutive victories, becoming the biggest dark horse of the new season, which made everyone admire. Especially the players traded in the summer, all have outstanding performance.

Billups averaged 13.6 points, 11.2 assists, 5.5 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1 block in 10 games. What is truly shocking is the assist-to-turnover ratio of Billups (the number of assists/the number of turnovers, the higher the number, the stronger the player’s passing stability and the lower the turnover rate.), reaching an astonishing 4.1, especially among them 0 turnovers in the two games are shocking.

Of course, what is even more shocking to the media is the growth of the three rookies of the Houston Rockets.

The top pick Yao Ming averaged 15.2 points and 8.5 rebounds in 10 games. Boozer achieved 17 points and 7 rebounds. As for Prince, although the points and rebounds are still low, the strength shown on the defensive end is amazing.

Three rookies, especially Boozer, the 35th rookie in the second round, actually averaged 17 points and 7 rebounds per game, which is really amazing. I have to sigh that Lin Fengxuan's vision is too accurate!

The Houston Rockets are so fierce this season, what about next season? The Houston Rockets, which holds at least three first-round picks, will be the year of the draft next year. Thinking of James, who has already begun to call for trouble in the high school league, many reporters can't imagine how terrifying the Houston Rockets will be if he goes to the Linfeng team.

Of course, the current formation of the Houston Rockets is not without problems. First of all, Jordan and others are too old and have limited physical strength. Whether they can cope with the cruel playoffs is still a problem. Second, the small forward position is too weak. There is no one to replace except Prince, and there is also a point guard. Billups has already played the "mvp" level, but the bench is too poor, which all need to be reinforced.

For this, Lin Feng didn't have any good candidates for a while. After all, I just love the NBA, not an NBA expert, it is impossible for all players to remember. After thinking about it, Lin Feng asked Dawson and Morey to fill the vacancy. Anyway, the Houston Rockets now have a lot of salary space, and there is no problem with signing a few more people.

When the NBA regular season is in full swing, the national media is still wondering whether Kobe and O'Neal can get along well, especially when Boozer and Billups both played extremely good numbers recently, will the Los Angeles Lakers trade one of O'Neal and Kobe At that time, Lin Feng quietly came to St. Vincent-St. Mary Middle School in Cleveland, Ohio, USA.

Cleveland is a small city. St. Vincent-St. Mary's Middle School was unknown three years ago and didn’t have any shots, but now St. Vincent-St. Mary’s Middle School is hot and has won two interstate basketball championships in the past three years. , To become the most well-known middle school in the United States. And all this is caused only because one person, a player who has been paid attention to by basketball experts in the United States today, has become a super genius player-LeBron James.

Lin Feng's trip to St. Vincent-St. Mary's Middle School in Cleveland was for this super genius. Although Lin Feng holds three first-round picks next year, Lin Feng is not absolutely sure whether he can successfully sign LeBron James.

Although according to the current record, Cleveland should be firmly at the bottom, and the odds of drawing the No. 1 pick are extremely high.

In the 02-03 season, although Cleveland won the All-Star player Francis, his record was worse than last season. The first 10 games only played a poor record of 1 win and 9 losses, which surprised all experts in the industry.

Lin Feng couldn't understand the reason for this. One is because Cleveland's strength is really limited. Although an All-Star Francis has come, his strength has not been significantly improved; second, Francis is not a person who can lead a team to drastic changes, especially when he was replaced by the Houston Rockets. He felt that he was being transferred to the Cleveland Cavaliers, it was too embarrassing, he was emotional, and naturally he could not play well. This also directly caused the Cleveland Cavaliers' poor record now.

auzw.com Although the Cleveland Cavaliers may be at the bottom 90% this season, Lam Feng is still afraid of an accident. After all, there may be accidents in everything, not to mention the appearance of a rebirth. In order to prevent the Cleveland Cavaliers from winning the No. 1 lottery, Lin Feng is here to sign LeBron James first. Of course, it is not an NBA player contract (not allowed by NBA rules), but a commercial contract. Although LeBron James now has a good grade, before joining the NBA, his family was still very poor. Lin Feng believes in his own contract, which is definitely a help in need for him. Thinking about James' future commercial value, Lin Feng salivated.

After all, there is still one year before the end of high school. In case of any injury this year, no one can say for sure. Besides, Lin Feng also has a secret weapon.

"Hi, Michael, look, how is he?" Lin Feng said, pointing to LeBron James who was training alone in the arena.

"Yes, although the technique is still relatively rough, but the body is extremely strong and does not belong to any NBA players at the same position." Michael Jordan nodded and commented, "Also, his persistence in winning, I appreciate it."

In Jordan's view, it doesn't matter if your physical talent is not good, and it doesn't matter if you have poor skills. As long as you have a dedication to victory, you can stand on the basketball court. If not, such as Jordan’s personally selected champion-Kwame Brown, no matter how good his physical talent is, he does not have a dedication to victory, that is, a mediocre talent.

At this time, after James' training temporarily ended, Lin Feng and Michael Jordan walked over.

"Hi, LeBron!" Lin Feng greeted with a smile.

"Excuse me... Michael Jordan!" James was still wondering who Lin Feng was, but he suddenly saw his idol Michael Jordan appear in front of him, his face was incredibly unbelievable, the basketball in his hands slipped to the ground and his voice was abrupt. Called, "Please... Excuse me, are you really Michael Jordan?"

Now that the NBA regular season has begun, how could Michael Jordan appear here? LeBron James couldn't believe it.

(The reason why Jordan was able to come here at the start of the regular season was because the Houston Rockets happened to be playing back-to-back away games with the Cleveland Cavaliers. In order to let these old players rest, coach Tomjanovich generally would not arrange Jordan and Rodman. Play back-to-back matches with Olajuwon. Anyway, the Houston Rockets have many rookies and rookies, all of them are young people, and their physical strength is strong and there is nowhere to vent.)

"Hi, LeBron, hello, this is Michael Jordan!" Jordan reached out and shook hands politely.

"You...Hello, I...I'm LeBron James!" James was shaking with excitement, shaking hands with Jordan, shaking hands with excitement on his face. I kept looking at my right hand, excited as if a child got the most wanted Christmas gift.

"Hi, LeBron, how about it? Go on the court to compete for a set." Jordan grabbed the basketball and walked onto the court.

"Okay!" James yelled and rushed to the court excitedly. Being able to play with an idol is what he looks forward to most.

"Hi, LeBron, be careful not to use too much force, you are not a type of player." Lin Feng was startled when he saw it. Back then, Jordan was hit by Artest with an elbow and broke three ribs. James is stronger than Artest, and he is young and vigorous, and he does not know the severity. If he accidentally injured Jordan, Lin Feng would be depressed to death.

"Ah, oh, I see." James slowed down, then nodded after thinking about it. After all, he is a small forward, and he is very talented. He was born a lap stronger than a human. He really had to bump into Jordan without knowing how serious it was.

"Hey, high school student, show your strength. You didn't even make the NBA, and you want to hurt me. Be careful of yourself." Jordan heard it but was not happy. He must do his best to play. If you have reservations, How to play then. What's more, he can't really figure out James' strength in this way.

"Okay! I will do my best." James' eyes shot out excited eyes. Being able to fight a bullfight with his idol with all his strength is probably the happiest moment in his life.

Jordan and James had a 1v1 bullfight. There were no others on the scene. Naturally, Lin Feng should be the referee.

In the first game, Jordan allowed James to attack with the ball. After James got the ball, he roared strangely and dribbled the ball into the basket.

Earlier on TV, James’ “cutting in” was terrible enough, especially Yao Ming once said that making James hit a man foul was like being hit by a truck heavily in the chest. At that time, even James was terrible, and now I have witnessed it with my own eyes, listening to the heavy footsteps, and the slight trembling of the floor, Lin Feng asked himself, facing the charged James, it really takes a little courage to stop him.

But Jordan is Jordan after all. Although his body is far inferior to James, he sticks it on from the side, and is very clever with one stick and one loose, so that James' rhythm is really inconsistent. He wants to force a jump, but he is really short of breath. And the current James, the technology is really rough, was eventually forced out of bounds by Jordan.

"So tender!" Lin Feng sighed. James today is indeed too tender. But after all, this has just entered the senior year, and now James is far from being able to compare with James, who led the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Finals five years later, both in football skills and physical.

Then, after Jordan's turn to start the game, he made a relaxing feint and scored a jumper. A clean 5:0 win the bullfighting championship.

"I lost!" Although he lost to the idol, James was still full of regret and unwillingness.

"Hey...hey, high school student, you're good, but you have to hone your skills more, practice more emergency stop jumpers, and learn to use your physical advantage more." Jordan gasped.

Lin Feng smiled. Although the score, Jordan won extremely easily. But from Jordan's breathlessness and constant breathing, it is easy to know that James still put great pressure on Jordan, otherwise Jordan would not be so tired.
