I'm a boss in the NBA

Chapter 434 The dust has settled, the next stop——

The Lakers blew the horn for the new season's training camp, and in the Lakers club, President Jenny Buss called a meeting of the management team.

In the head coach's office, Jenny Buss held a thick player profile in her hand and said, "Gentlemen, the new season is about to start. We can't be the same as before this time. We need to seek changes."

"Xu Xuan Plan" is an important reorganization charter proposed by him.

The main content is to build a team around Xu Xuan, clean up those locker room tumors, and build a completely different Bai Baihe with Xu Xuan as the center.

In her concept, this will be a youthful, sunny, passionate, vigorous team with a sense of hard work.

The ultimate goal is the championship, there is no doubt about it.

Xu Xuan's fresh blood injects youthful vitality into the old Zijin Dynasty, thus creating a completely different team.

This is Jenny Buss' ambition!

Many people are wondering how the Lakers were so lonely after winning the championship in 2010.

Looking at their history:
In the 2010-11 season, the Lakers retained the main lineup to win the championship, but Andrew Bynum's injury broke out and the team had to slow down.

This season, due to a knee injury, Bynum only played a total of 54 regular season games.

In order for the team to get the highest possible ranking in the regular season, Kobe, Gasol, Odom, Fisher, and Metta World Peace all played 82 games, which to a certain extent, damaged the team.After defeating the Hornets 4-2 in the first round of the playoffs, they were swept by that season's championship Mavericks in the semifinals.

At that time, the Lakers had already exposed their old age, Fisher was completely blown away by Jason Terry, and Gasol was helpless against Nowitzki.Years later, it was proved that from that season, Odom became addicted to drugs, and the degeneration of the team's best sixth man became one of the reasons why the Lakers were swept.

In the 2011-12 season, the Lakers sent Odom away, and the addition of Matt Barnes did little to reinforce this loss.

Due to injuries such as tibial tenosynovitis, Kobe only played 56 games this season, and his state has declined.In addition, this year, Vanessa proposed to divorce Kobe. This off-site factor has a greater impact on Kobe.

In the playoffs, the Lakers, who struggled to break through the first round through the tie-break, were defeated by the Thunder 4-1.From a tactical point of view, the Lakers are still sticking to the "Bynum + Gasol" giant basketball route, which is quite different from the small ball trend that has already emerged in the league.

This defeat is more like being defeated by the times.

In the 2012-13 season, the Lakers sent away Bynum, got Howard and introduced Nash.

Reorganizing the Big Four lineup, the Lakers are determined to make a final fight for the championship.

However, Howard was completely lost in life in Los Angeles, and his conflict with Kobe became a favorite of the local media.Nash's coming to Los Angeles is more like coming to retire. Injuries made him only play 50 games.

On April 2013, 4, on the eve of the playoffs, Kobe suffered a torn Achilles tendon in a game against the Warriors and was reimbursed for the season.The Lakers then lost to the Thunder in the first round of the playoffs.

In the 2013-14 season, Howard fled Los Angeles to Houston during the offseason. Kobe played only 6 games due to injury throughout the season, and Nash only played 10 games due to injury. win.Los Angeles missed the playoffs for the first time in nine years.

In the 2014-15 season, Gasol left, and the core player in the Lakers' 2010 championship lineup was only Kobe, and Kobe only played 35 games this season.After another 23 wins this season, Los Angeles embarked on a complete rebuild.

As for the 15-16 season, not much to say, the season when Kobe retired, he really regarded being bad as the core idea.

Looking at it this way, the Lakers' desolation and freezing three feet did not happen overnight.

The year they won the championship can even be regarded as a flashback.

There were also struggles later on, but generally speaking, the struggles were just dragging himself to slow down his death.

Jenny Buss doesn't want to be like his brother Jim Buss.

They're getting some sort of big or small star to form a duo, a Big Three, or even a Big Four, or a Big Five.

no point.

Jenny Buss thinks that doesn't make sense.

If that can be successful, the Lakers will not be as bad as they are today.

If you want to get something, you have to change!

Change from the inside out!
And Xu Xuan is the storm center of all these changes.

Only with Xu Xuan can her plans succeed.

Jenny Buss was actually a little guilty.

And she actually plans to officially launch it next year to solve Jim Bass and regain the power of the team.

But because of Xu Xuan's relationship, she had to start early.

If Xu Xuan hadn't been recruited this time, her floating power would have collapsed in an instant, and the overall situation might have lost control again.

Xu Xuan is too important!

It is so important that it cannot be replaced.

If Xu Xuan is not recruited, even Durant is useless.

Jenny Buss quickly filtered it in her mind, looked at the player information on the table confidently, then turned on the projector, and said, "Gentlemen, let's watch a video first."

Jenny Buss is not a bombastic person, she likes to speak with facts.

Soon a game screen was projected on the projector, a black-haired teenager scoring and passing highlights.

This boy is Xu Xuan who just led the Pacers to the championship.

"It's really art. No matter how many times you watch it, you can still be shocked."

"Watching Xu Xuan's game is simply an enjoyment. The combination of art and beauty is so comfortable."

"Exaggerated vision, terrifying scoring ability."

Everyone was discussing in an instant, Xu Xuan is not an unknown person, everyone is very familiar with him.

"Yes." Jenny Bass sat on the desk, crossed her arms and exclaimed in admiration: "Xu Xuan's technical characteristics are reflected in that as long as he gets the ball, he is almost omnipotent! He can score, pass, Can drive, can shoot, can score in any way he thinks possible."

"But, can we really get him?" new general manager Pelinka said, biting his pen: "That's not an easy thing."

"Of course it's not easy." Jenny Buss gave her new general manager a white look: "However, Kobe has already helped us break into the enemy's interior in advance. I received a call just now, and Xu Xuan has agreed that we can go there in the afternoon." Talk to him."

"Xu Xuan agreed?"

"Kobe deserves credit."

"It seems that even though Kobe has retired, he still thinks about us and is moved."

Jenny Buss looked around in satisfaction, slapped her hands to attract everyone's attention, and said in a deep voice: "Well, let's go down and prepare now, I've prepared the materials for you, what to talk about later, what to talk about , think clearly first, we have to fight for it, and we must win with one blow!"

At the end of the meeting, after the other top executives left, Pelinka left.

He poured himself a cup of coffee and asked, "Do you really believe that Xu Xuan can succeed?"

Jenny Buss was sorting out the documents. Hearing this, she paused for a while, then said in silence, "I don't know, but...I want to trust him."

"why?"

Pelinka asked suspiciously.

Jenny Buss sighed, she turned around, looked at Pelinka and said: "I saw different qualities in him, if before October last year, some people said that the Pacers would win the championship, do you believe ?"

"I don't believe it!" Pelinka shook his head and said: "At that time, they were in my expectation, at most they could only reach the second round of the playoffs, and this would require Xu Xuan and Paul George to play normally."

Pelinka shrugged and said: "After all, their bench lineup is too weak, isn't it?"

"That's right! I don't believe it either, the bench lineup is so weak." Jenny Buss smiled, and then said with emotion: "But they did it, they not only made it to the end but also won the championship, which is something no one has ever done before. Thinking about it. I saw an infectious power in Xu Xuan. He can not only drive himself, but also drive his teammates and fans. He has a kind of ability to let others surround him and work towards his goal. charm."

Jenny Buss took a deep breath and looked at Pelinka: "And, I can only choose to believe him now!"

Just as Pelinker was thinking about these questions bitterly, Jenny Buss’ voice came: “I hope the feat he accomplished in Indiana can also be repeated in Los Angeles. This time we are really different. reform, we use new players, what we are looking forward to is a new round of rise, not to fill in the gaps!"

Jenny Buss came all the way to the floor-to-ceiling windows. She looked at the center of the resplendent arena, and said with enthusiasm in her eyes: "This is a supernova that is hard to find in the history of the NBA! This storm will dominate the league sooner or later. ! And I will take advantage of this storm to completely control the Lakers!"

"Damn it! This way the Lakers have too much advantage, isn't this not giving others a chance?"

In a room of a high-end hotel in Los Angeles, a team from the Dallas Mavericks was also discussing how to abduct Xu Xuan from Los Angeles.

Cuban looked out of the window with a look of displeasure, then took a sip, then turned to look at the old driver and said, "Dirk, you should have invited Xu Xuan to Dallas for training at that time, and we can also help him contact us. One-stop service to the end."

The old driver smiled wryly and spread his hands. He didn't know about this beforehand, okay?

Besides, it should have wiped your neck long ago.

Who was the one who chose Xu Xuan in the first place?

Who is the person who traded Xu Xuan away?
I don't have a B number in my heart, do I?

But the old driver would definitely not say it outright without being so emotionally intelligent. He sighed and said, "I guess there is also Xu Xuan's own meaning in it. Otherwise, even if Kobe invited him, Xu Xuan might as well not come."

In other words, with Xu Xuan's status now, what kind of training do you want if you don't have to go to Los Angeles?
"If Xu Xuan is signed, maybe we can taste the championship again." Cuban said angrily: "As long as he is willing to come, as long as I can agree to any conditions, I will agree to them all."

"If Xu Xuan wants to come, I can assist him." The old driver also said in a deep voice.

He can give up the boss position, as long as Xu Xuan is willing to go to Dallas.

"The Lakers have put in a lot of effort here. Jim Buss can step down so quickly, and Jenny Buss can come on stage so quickly. Those people on the board of directors definitely played a role in fueling the flames."

"If you can cut off Hu, the Lakers may really be useless. Unfortunately, now you can't even see Xu Xuan's face. What do you think?"

It is risky for stars to test the waters of the free market, otherwise it would not be called "testing the waters".

In the end, there are not a few stars who have suffered "loss of money and talent".

And Xu Xuan didn't seem worried at all.

This free market has been open for three days, and he doesn't even show his face, including his agent.

Another high-end hotel not far from this hotel.

Home of the Charlotte Hornets.

The old hooligan led the team himself, but it was a pity that he was the same as the Mavericks. Up to now, let alone meeting him, he hadn't even seen Xu Xuan's hair.

They wanted to talk, and they were not afraid of Xu Xuan's conditions, but they were hanging on like this now.

I feel sad.

"Think of a way, contact Kobe, I want to meet Kobe." The old hooligan still had a brain, he thought of contacting Kobe if he couldn't reach Xu Xuan.

Whatever it is, let's meet first.

"Hehe, Kobe can't be contacted either." The president under him gave a wry smile.

Nonsense, how could Kobe be contacted by others now.

You are so rude, Xu Xuan belongs to the Lakers!

at the same time.

The league now has a total of 27 teams all sent to Los Angeles.

Even the Cavaliers and Warriors have people here.

They are not very eager for Xu Xuan, and there is a high probability that Xu Xuan will not join these two teams, but... this is so lively and exciting, so exciting.

That night, under the leadership of the new president Jenny Buss, a group of executives from the Lakers all appeared outside Xu Xuan's rented apartment.

His expression was pious, like believers waiting for a pilgrimage.

Xu Xuan pursed his lips, the gestures of this group of people were quite enough.

From top to bottom, none of the executives are left behind.

After a whole night of negotiations, Carson, who has now returned from China, finally reached an agreement with the Lakers on the signing intention on behalf of Xu Xuan.

The overnight time is not that the Lakers don't want to give money, but that they are struggling, and the signing time is too short.

There are only two years, too short, too short, not to mention, the second year is still a player option.

In other words, Xu Xuan has played this year, and he will leave next year if he wants to.

It doesn't matter if you give money. After all, the Lakers are also a wealthy team, let alone money. It's okay to give Xu Xuan a four-year maximum salary, but Xu Xuan refuses to let it go. He always insists on a two-year, 1+1 contract system.

The Lakers had no choice in the end. They were too greedy for Xu Xuan. Whatever Xu Xuan proposed, they had to agree.

The next day, the news was officially disclosed.

The alliance exploded in an instant!
The 2015-2016 season championship and FMVP winner, Xu Xuan officially decided to join the Los Angeles Lakers!
