Chapter 625 Championship Elimination Method

The Lakers made a good start in the first game of the new season.

When he arrived at the team to check in the next day, Li Shengli was not in a hurry to participate in training, and was dragged by West and Harris to the general manager's office for coffee...

To be honest, since a series of successful operations, the Lakers' road to the championship has been quite smooth.

West naturally became a winner in life. He played basketball and became the LOGO of the NBA. He also made outstanding achievements as the general manager of the team. He was very different from Toby Knight, the general manager of the Mavericks. Nature followed suit.

As for the new season...

……

"Li, you played well yesterday, you always put me at ease!" West giggled, and he couldn't help but smile, after all, he built the Lakers dynasty.

"Come on, do you think that for our Li, verbal awards are better than cash rewards?" Harris said happily at this moment: "I can guarantee... no matter which team the next game is, If you dare to give him 100 million, he will dare to defeat others in the next battle, money is his fighting power, buddy."

Damn, who are you two talking about?

Is Lao Tzu a man who is in the eyes of money?

Li Shengli rolled his eyes at the two old men, and sat down on his own.

"Say what, I have to go back to training."

"Well, it's okay, just a few of us chatting." West took a sip of coffee, smoothed his thoughts, and said to Li Shengli and Harris: "Seriously, guys, we and last season's It's different, last season we thought about who we could beat, this season we thought about ... who can beat us."

"This is our confidence as a championship. As for now, let's do an elimination method!"

"Should be!" Harris nodded: "The Spurs should count as one of the most competitive teams in the Western Conference, but yesterday's game... I think we should all see it."

After Harris finished speaking, Li Shengli and West glanced at each other, and the conversation between the representatives of the team has already cut to the chase...

Who can beat the Lakers?

Now is the time for elimination!

……

West straightened his face and said, "You can see that the Spurs played in the first half, and the chances of winning are not very great. Even...Popovich didn't even want to win, and he was probing our bottom since the second half. The chances of winning and the direction of reinforcement in the future.”

"Well, I can feel it. This man's ambition is not small, and he directly wants to go to the championship." Harris said in a deep voice.

"Why can't they be ambitious? After all, they have the combination of Robinson and Duncan. But... I think Li, you are the clearest threat to them." West handed over the topic to Li Shengli.

Threat?

Li Shengli thought about it, and it was indeed a threat, because Duncan was a dangerous person.

Reasonably speaking, the combination of Robinson + Duncan, compared with the original combination of myself + Malone, although the style is very different, but the effect is not the same, and what the Spurs really lack is one or more powerful role players.

In this regard, the Spurs are far inferior to the original Jazz, but what cannot be ignored is...the Spurs have the foundation for the championship.

On the other hand, every team is fine-tuning every season, and so are the Spurs.

If there are no accidents, this means that the future of the Spurs will only increase, but not weaken, and now is the weakest time after they harvested Duncan.

……

"Duncan is the most threatening point." Li Shengli said in a deep voice: "Placing Big Ben against him can stop some offenses, but without Campbell, our offense is also weakened. The reason why we can win is because of Kobe. Play, and the depth of the rotation lineup. Popovich let Robinson out desperately and let me toss, but Duncan is also tossing our fourth position at this point."

"Well, playing the Spurs' fourth position is indeed a problem." West frowned.

"Don't worry, at least they don't pose much threat to us this season. Let's talk about it if they really have personnel adjustments!" Harris looked more optimistic, but I can understand it when I think about it...

In any game, there is no absolute strength between the two sides.

The bottom one in the league must be one of the worst teams, but it is impossible for them to be 0 wins and 82 losses. In addition to the hard power gap, what leads to the result of winning or losing is also the player's on-the-spot performance.

Assume that the bottom-to-last team has a performance range of 30-60; the positive-to-first team has a performance range of 50-80, which means that if the former wants to win the latter, the former must perform exceptionally well, and the latter must still It must be an abnormal performance that was forced to the lower limit.

This is the same model for the Lakers and Spurs, but the gap is smaller.

If there is no rematch of injured players and personnel adjustments, the Spurs are not incapable of winning, but the condition for winning is that there is a poor performance state, and the same is normal performance, and it is basically impossible for the Spurs to win the Lakers.

Putting it in the playoffs, the Spurs' hopes of advancing are naturally much smaller.

……

"The Spurs can be ruled out for the time being."

"The Rockets and the Jazz played both last season. There is no major change in personnel. We can only see the state of their main players in the new season!"

"There is also supersonic speed... it is more difficult to chew, it remains to be seen!"

"Well, just considering the playoffs, the situation in the East is much simpler."

"The Bulls are still a big problem, but it seems like their situation in the East is less optimistic than ours."

"The Celtics? This is a big problem. It's different from the Spurs. Over there... the lineup is much more complete than the Spurs."

"Considering the variables in the Eastern Conference, what we need to observe is the Celtics' game status!"

"O'Neal and Garnett? I'm afraid... the Bulls can't stand it!"

……

West and Harris chatted one by one.

In fact, it is really the same as what West said at the beginning...Last season, the Lakers considered who they could beat, but this season they considered who they could beat the Lakers.

The Spurs, who played against each other first, have been ruled out. There is a threat, but not now.

The Rockets and Jazz are two strong teams to be seen.

The Sonics did not play in the playoffs last time, and this season also needs to focus on observing the effect of the battle.

As for the east...

If the Bulls in the East can't support the Celtics in the new group, the Lakers, who are aiming at the championship, will encounter a big problem, which is more serious than the Spurs. After all, the Spurs are still an invisible threat, and the Celtics have become a climate.

……

Walking out of the general manager's office, Li Shengli participated in the training.

To be honest, external threats will not disappear because of everyone's one idea. The real solution is actually to strengthen ourselves, and the Lakers still have room for growth.

The relationship between Kobe and Crotty has developed by leaps and bounds, because the two are equally crazy about training, and the normalized suicide training is beyond the reach of everyone on the team, which is the main reason why the two are favored by the management.

As for the others, although they are not as crazy as the first two, they can still be said to be serious.

Big Ben needs to strengthen the offense, and Campbell needs to strengthen the defense. The elevation of the two is the biggest and fastest part of the Lakers' strength improvement, but these cannot be achieved overnight, and the short-term effect is basically invisible.

For this reason, Harris did not hesitate to use game time to improve the shortcomings of the two and make up for the last weakness of the Lakers.

Of course, the weaknesses are also relative, and the strength of each team also has certain restraint attributes.

Teams without a super four position will not be able to enjoy the benefits of the Lakers' weakness at all; on the other hand, even with a super four position, it will only increase their winning percentage a little. One of the most powerful and wildest teams in the league.
