NBA restricted area bulldozer

Chapter 527

Back to the game.

The current record of the Lakers is 19 wins and 10 losses, but if they are compared to the first-tier teams in the East and West in the season and the record in the same period...

In the east, the Bulls lead 25/4, and the Heat chase 22/7.

西部则是火箭的23/6领跑，爵士22/7、超音速20/9。

Therefore, the Lakers are temporarily ranked fourth in the Western Conference, and assuming that the top four in the Western Conference advance to the playoffs with this record, and assuming that all advance to the first round, then...the Lakers may meet the Rockets in the second round. Play the Rockets this year's Big Three.

You know, the Big Three of the Rockets are the most promising combination in the West this year. The Lakers have just played two games and lost both.

The East has the Big Three Bulls and the West has the Rockets. The two teams are regarded as the final seeding teams. On the contrary, the Lakers in this year's new group don't have many bright spots. It's just Li Shengli, and it's normal not to be favored.

However, compared with the Big Three in the East and West, the new lineup of the Lakers is also rapidly forming.

……

The first is Li Shengli.

There are currently less than 30 games, and the average is 28.6 points and 15.3 rebounds per game. This kind of luxurious data crushes the same level, but it is a pity that Jordan's 29.4 points dominate the scoring list, and Rodman's 16.1 rebounds dominate the rebounding list. Fortunately, the blocks On the list, Li Shengli overwhelmed all the centers and reached the top with an average of 3.6 blocks per game.

Then there is Kobe.

At present, the average playing time per game has broken through to 26 minutes. Looking at these 30 games, Kobe’s improvement in all countable statistics is very comprehensive. As a rookie, he averaged 18.1 points per game, second only to No. [-] Iverson and Tanhua Laxi. Mu, also ranked second in the team after Li Shengli.

And in the third game after the Washington Bullets, West finally got the bullets, and Ben Wallace also successfully landed in Los Angeles.

……

Early morning training.

Kobe and Crotty are always the first to arrive, and the two animals seem to have found a similar smell recently.

The previous suicide training was really played by the two into a routine practice. It belonged to the "stab" that everyone in the Lakers team was afraid of. Everyone was afraid of being pulled by these two animals to train together.

"Are you here?"

"Of course, your request will be met, and it's not a big deal."

At this time, Li Shengli and head coach Harris were standing in the stands, and Daben came to the entrance of the training hall very early. He had completed a series of trivial matters such as the team physical examination the day before, and today was the first time he came to the Lakers to report. .

"Speaking of which, why don't you welcome him, after all, you found this guy."

"I'll go right away, I just want to ask you, is there any movement on the deal between Ceballos and Campbell?" Li Shengli turned his head and glanced at Harris, "If I can be sure, I want Ben to fight in the next few games, This guy can be trained, he is definitely a good player on the defensive end."

"Does it need to be so fast?" Harris asked in embarrassment, "Letting him play the starting power forward is still unconvincing. I want him to play you as a substitute first, what do you think?"

"Just come off the bench and give us more time!" Li Shengli thought for a while.

Because the current main power forward Campbell is still there, in the event that the transaction may not be successful, the Lakers management will definitely not do anything, and directly leave Campbell's starting position. It is definitely not a good thing for the Lakers who want to go further.

So... the best way for Daben to play is to play as a center forward or a power forward as a substitute, and gradually shift to the main starting position, which can also solve the problem of Li Shengli's playing time exceeding the standard.

Harris also thought of this, and simply said: "Okay, then it's settled. I want to see his performance on the defensive end in the next game against the Mavericks. Let Garnett be his touchstone. I really hope you Don't waste your time."

……

On the training ground at this time.

Kobe, Crotty, and Fisher are all there. At present, the three brothers in the Lakers team are the closest to Li Shengli. When Da Ben changed into his training uniform and arrived at the scene, he found that Li Shengli was not there.

"Where is Li, damn it, I'm here, why didn't he come?" Da Ben opened his voice, but Kobe was stunned for a moment, and Fisher hurriedly talked about Da Ben, which made Da Ben very puzzled.

"Are you Fisher? Why, why are you dragging me?"

"Brother, can you keep your voice down, do you call yourself boss so arrogantly in the bullet team?"

"Arrogance? I don't have one. Are you guys not allowed to call Li's name here?"

"It's not impossible, but you can't say the word 'damn', Li doesn't care, but someone..." Fisher secretly glanced at Crotty, and at this moment he found that Crotty's face was really pale Change.

"Ben?"

"You should be there for training. Just because you're here doesn't mean that Li will be there too. Be careful what you say. In addition, Fisher is right. Li doesn't care what you say, but I do!"

What the fuck?

Who is that arrogant? !

Da Ben's face was stiff, and when he was about to speak, Fisher finally caught him before him this time, and said in a low voice: "Don't, brother Ben, don't talk, this person is crazy. "

"Crazy? Crazy Crotty?"

"That's right, it's him. From now on, don't speak ill of Li in front of him. Let's just talk about it in private."

"What, do you still like to speak ill of Li?"

"Fuck, no, I don't, don't talk nonsense!" Fisher scolded in his heart.

It never occurred to me that this big man was a stunned young man, who took his kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and desperately wanted to pour dirty water on himself.

Then Li Shengli can speak ill of him?

If this word got out, wouldn't he suffer?

Fortunately, at this time, Li Shengli had already got off the stands and walked over here, and he was also very happy to see Da Ben.

"Hey, Ben, I'm right, you have to be my man in the end. Well, let's stop talking nonsense now, there is a game tomorrow, and from now on, you are ours."

"I'm yours?"

"Yes, nothing else, let me introduce you first!"

Li Shengli walked up to Da Ben, and because he had greeted everyone in advance, he introduced it straight to the point.

"This is Kobe, a rookie in this year's draft, you should know him."

"Hello, Ben, welcome to the Lakers. Your future training time will be synchronized with mine. I will be responsible for supervising your training!" Kobe took the initiative to shake hands with Da Ben. If you want to supervise me, just don't be frightened by Lao Tzu's training volume when the time comes.

"Regular training is a matter for the future. Kobe will take you. Before that, I will conduct special training for you. Tomorrow, I will give you playing time against the Mavericks. You can handle it yourself."

Li Shengli interrupted, and continued to introduce: "This is Crotty, let's get acquainted, and learn from him if there is nothing to do."

"Learn from him? I play inside and he plays outside. What can I learn from him?"

"Learn...to hit people!" When Crotty spoke, Kobe and Fisher cried, and Li Shengli was also very embarrassed.

"Hey, just kidding, you will know that Crotty is not a bad guy when you get used to it, learn more to deal with the opponent's small offensive moves, and besides... I have already applied for time for you to play against the Mavericks tomorrow, and you can talk to Gane again. Specialize in trash talk, anyway, the skill is too much to overwhelm.”

……

Such a high salary!

This horse is trying to make me defensive all-rounder? !

Daben was moved instantly, because the feeling of being valued was something he had never enjoyed in the Bullets. At least now, it seems that he will not be reduced to a role of carrying bags for the main players in the Lakers.

It's just... the confrontation, training, small moves, and trash talk are all arranged, so what about Fisher?

"What about him, what should I learn from him?"

"Me? How about... learn to paddle with me?"
