All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

In October, before the start of the preseason, the Lakers officially announced the team's fourteen-man roster for the new season.

Center: Marc Gasol, Chris Mihm, D.J. Mbenga.

Power forwards: Luke Walton, Ronny Turiaf, Brian Cook.

Small forwards: Su Feng, Vladimir Radmanovic, Ira Nubel.

Shooting guards: Sasha Vujacic, Marcus Evans, Coby Carr.

Point guard: Maurice Williams, Janello Pargo.

DNP: Kobe Bryant.

Because in the NBA, according to regulations, when a player on the team is determined to be reimbursed for the season, the team can apply for an injury exception clause from the league, so before the start of the new season, Director Lu deliberately only reported 14 players who could play. .

In this way, when the season reaches the middle of the season, the Lakers can use this injury exception clause to sign a veteran who has been waived by other teams to supplement their strength.

Because the injury exception clause can ignore the salary cap and do not have to pay luxury tax, for this Lakers, whose "lineup is not rich", before the start of the new season, this may be their biggest difference compared with other teams. The advantage.

Anyway, it’s pretty much the same as what the experts said before...

Even if you are a senior fan, it is impossible for you to recognize the entire lineup of the Lakers for the new season.

On the 14th, at Staples, the Lakers ushered in the team's first preseason game of the new season.

As a result, although Su Feng, who made his first appearance at Staples wearing the Lakers jersey No. 23, scored 27 points for the Lakers in the first half, in the second half of the game, the Jazz substitutes beat them from all directions without any blind spots. The substitutes also used their strength to prove to the world how discerning the people who thought this Lakers were composed of Su Feng and a group of NBDL players were.

The next day, the Los Angeles Times directly quoted former Lakers legend "Magic" Johnson's evaluation to describe the current Lakers:

"What is the current level of the Lakers? Mihm, Mbenga and others can play center in the Lakers. Can they play? They can't. They don't have the ability, you know?

When Su led the team to establish a 15-point lead in the first half, they were overturned by the Jazz's substitutes in the second half. Tell me, how do you explain this?

The Lakers still have six preseason games, then what?

Lose to the Mavericks, lose to the Suns, lose to the Spurs, lose again to the Mosaics, and finally lose face! "

On a Chinese poker forum, Chinese fans described the current Lakers in this way:

Su Zilong killed seven in and seven out in Changbanpo.

The Lakers players in his arms are also very upbeat.

Because when Su Feng wielded his spear and killed randomly in the enemy formation, not only did they not cry or make trouble, but they would even pop out of Su Feng's arms from time to time and shout "FGNB"!

I have to say that in terms of talent, it really has to be Chinese fans who know how to play tricks.

However, exactly the opposite of what these fans think is...

In the Lakers' first preseason game of the new season, Su Feng thought his teammates had already performed beyond their level.

After all, as far as this Jazz's bench is concerned...

As long as the substitutes who were not the Lakers performed at a superb level in this game, in the second half, the Lakers would not only suffer a comeback?

Yi Jianlian, Jefferson, Brewer, Collins...

If you don’t understand, just ask...

Is Sloan deliberately showing off to the Lakers how thick the Jazz's lineup is?

On the 16th, the Lakers continued to face the Mavericks at home.

As a result, what was even worse than the Jazz leading the way in the first game was...

In this game, in the first half, Su Feng made 9 of 11 shots and scored 29 points for the Lakers...

At halftime, looking at the scoreboard at Staples Center, 73-46...

Countless Lakers who were hoping that Su Feng could lead the Lakers out of the quagmire fell silent.

“Sue’s scoring ability is truly unmatched.

But he obviously overestimated his teammates. "

After the game, watching the Lakers lose to the Mavericks by 30 points at home, the American media commented like this.

And on the 18th, when the news came back to Los Angeles that the Lakers could lose even the Suns by 25 points without Tracy McGrady...

For a while, even old Bass, who was still flirting with the nurse in the hospital, couldn't sit still!

"Has Su's current mentality been affected by our recent losing streak?" On this day, Bass, who came to Kupchak to inquire about the Lakers' recent situation, asked very worriedly.

"To be honest, boss, if you ask me now, I don't know who to ask." Kupchak said helplessly as he looked at Old Buss with a wry smile.

"Mitch, are you sure you will do your best to fulfill all the requests Sue has made of you this summer?" Old Bass asked after pondering in his mind for a while.

After hearing this, Kupchak, who has been receiving greetings from Lakers fans about his family recently, said: "Boss, I am not the kind of fool who would quarrel with the star for the sake of power.

This summer, I can swear on my conscience that every signing we make is based on Su’s opinion. "

“Okay, as long as Su’s mentality is not affected.

After all, I don't have any performance requirements for the Lakers this season.

Mickey, you have to help me keep an eye on Su next.

Because he is our most valuable asset this season. Old Bass said with a meaningful expression as he patted Kupchak on the shoulder and turned back to continue teasing the nurse.

At this time, Kupchak also knew...

The implication of old Bass is...

He hoped that Kupchak could take time to care more about Su Feng before the regular season.

Because the Lakers' substitutes have proven that they are really not good...

Whether Su Feng is happy on the court is the most important thing for this Lakers team.

But on the 19th...

Just when Kupchak was still thinking about how to help Su Feng share the pressure, looking at Kupchak standing at the door of the training hall, Su Feng looked at him with a smile on his face and said: "You should be under a lot of pressure lately. Is it big?"

And after hearing this, after being stunned for a moment, how could Kupchak, who has been so big lately, still be able to hold back?

Looking at Su Feng affectionately, Kupchak immediately poured out the bitter water in his stomach towards Su Feng.

no way.

In the NBA, as the first person to take the blame, when various problems arise in a team, apart from the team's head coach, the general manager of a team is definitely the person who gets the most criticism.

Therefore, after patiently listening to Kupchak's grievances, Su Feng also patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "It's been really difficult for you during this period, Mickey."

Upon seeing this, Kupchak, who felt slightly recovered, found out in a daze...

He was supposed to solve Su Feng's problems...

At this moment, she actually looks like a little resentful woman...

"Su, I just lost my temper.

Actually, I came to see you today to see if your mentality has been affected by our recent losing streak..." said Kupchak, who looked at Su Feng and his face instantly turned red. .

Before Kupchak could finish his words, Su Feng interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "Mitch, in the NBA, even the Heat didn't dare to say that they could win every game.

In fact, through recent games, I have become more determined that we can reach the top half of the Western Conference in the new season.

It's just that we still need time to grow.

So, you don’t have to feel anxious about the new season that’s about to start.

Because I promise you...

After this season ends, no matter how much grievance you have suffered at this moment, you will receive much praise at that time. "

Eye to eye with Su Feng.

Looking at the smile hanging on the corner of Su Feng's mouth that made me feel like a spring breeze...

At this moment, Kupchak couldn't help but think of the legend who had trained him step by step...

“Mitch, as the behind-the-scenes decision-maker of a team, we can only see the direction of the team clearly if we remain calm at all times.

Because anxiety and impatience cannot change reality. "

In the end, in the Lakers' seven preseason games in the new season, the Lakers were very disappointing and only won the one against Mosaic.

Moreover, in the face of Mosaic, it was announced in September this year that Oden, the new top pick of the season, would be reimbursed for the season...

In the final quarter of the game, if Williams hadn't made three consecutive three-pointers...

The Lakers may even start the new season with a preseason record of seven losses.

And looking at these seven games...

Although Su Feng only played in the first half of every game, he dispelled people's previous doubts about his status...

However, before the start of the regular season, several major sports media in the United States expressed doubts about the Lakers:

Can this Lakers really reach the top half of the Western Conference as Su Feng said?

“Well, we all know Sue’s teams have a history of underperforming in preseason.

But.......

For this Lakers...

All I can say is that you can’t expect Su to lead thirteen elderly Charles Barkleys to the playoffs, right? "

As for TNT TV station, when previewing the new season, this time, even Barkley did not think that the Lakers could perform miracles under the leadership of Su Feng.

According to the schedule, the Lakers will officially usher in the team's new season opener on October 31.

Their opponent is the Cleveland Cavaliers, who just signed O'Neal with the mid-level exception this summer.

New York.

Look into the sky.

There has never been a moment like this...

Stern felt that his careful planning had never been so stupid.

Because originally, after Su Feng joined the Lakers, Stern wanted to start the new season with a duel between Su Feng and James...

Who could have imagined that this Lakers would stretch their hips even more than he expected?

Before the start of the new season, the Cavaliers ranked third in the league in the real-time strength rankings given by ESPN.

Due to their dismal performance in the preseason, the Lakers are currently ranked only 21st.

So, online, when it comes to this upcoming opener...

Most people think...

Perhaps, even fate now believes that it is time for James to take over the authority from Su Feng.

And for O'Neal, who had experienced how thick Su Feng's thighs were in Miami...

Looking at Maple Emperor who is exhausted both mentally and physically these days...

There has never been a moment like this...

O'Neal felt that his choice was so wise.

Maple Emperor! Maple Emperor!

Why do you think you couldn't think of joining the Lakers?

On the eve of the opening game, when O'Neal set foot on the land of Los Angeles again, he turned his head and looked at the group of young people behind him who were more fierce than the last...

The fat-headed fish couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"It's LeBron time now, Sue!"

On the other side, in the mansion of Su Feng's family, Kobe was also anxious after finishing the feast that Su Feng specially prepared for him.

"The opening game is tomorrow, why are you still in the mood to eat?" Looking at Su Feng, Kobe asked anxiously.

"What? Do you think the steak cooked for you today is not to your liking?" Su Feng asked.

"You know that's not what I want to say." Kobe said seriously.

Hearing this, Su Feng was happy and said: "As expected, no matter how well you pretended to be with Shaq before, you still have a grudge against him."

In this life, although because of Su Feng's relationship, there is no irreconcilable rift between "OK", but in terms of the personalities of Kobe and O'Neal...

These two people are destined to never be true friends.

In addition, even if Kobe doesn't say it...

Su Feng also knew that this guy had been very unhappy with the outside world thinking that James was about to take over the power from him.

so.......

Either that or Stern will cause trouble?

As soon as the new season started, it brought a very topical game to the audience.

"I don't care at all what Shaq does with the Cavaliers.

I also don't care if LeBron officially takes over from you this season, as the world says he will.

Su, even now, do you still think that this Lakers have the strength to compete with a strong team like the Cavaliers? "Looking at Su Feng, Kobe said solemnly.

After putting down the knife and fork in his hand, Su Feng wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Then what do you think I can do?

Not eating? Going to training right away? "

Kobe: "......"

"After the preseason, I know better than anyone how weak this Lakers roster is.

But Kobe, do you remember why we skipped college and ran directly? Su Feng asked as he stood up and looked at Kobe.

"of course I remember.

Because at that time, we all wanted to compete with Michael Jordan before he retired. "Kobe said with a nod.

“That’s just what you think.

From the beginning, I was thinking about how to beat Michael Jordan. "Su Feng said with a smile.

Kobe: "......"

no!

Do you want to put a cup in front of me?

"If you are still the Kobe Bryant that I remember, then in my opinion, you shouldn't be so anxious right now.

Because it doesn’t matter whether the front is covered with thorns or weeds...

Going forward courageously is our style! "Su Feng added after walking to Kobe and patting him on the shoulder.

After letting out a long sigh, Kobe said: "I really can't stand you... Even though it's this time, you are still so confident."

"I'm not just confident in myself." Su Feng said while staring at Kobe.

"But tomorrow night, you have to lead the team to fight alone." Kobe said.

"Then let the world see what kind of price I will pay for underestimating it!" Su Feng said after taking a bite of the steak on Kobe's table.

"It seems that you have been prepared for a long time." Looking at Su Feng, Kobe said.

"Aren't I always ready?" Su Feng replied, blinking his eyes.

"Sometimes, talking to you can really make you mad to death." Kobe said speechlessly.

"But, I know that the great Kobe Bryant likes me like this." Su Feng said.

"No, I don't like it at all," Bryant retorted.

"But, I know...

Only you can bring miracles to this Lakers. "Kobe then added.

"No, you're wrong, Kobe." Su Feng said, hugging Kobe's shoulders.

"Um?"

"Only the two of us can bring miracles to this Lakers team.

Oh, by the way, I've already finished your steak. " Su Feng said, looking at Kobe with a serious face.

Kobe: "......"

Damn it!

Are you a dog?

Labor and capital haven't even tasted a bite, and you've eaten them all?

…

October 31, late.

7 a.m. local time in Los Angeles.

When Lakers fans entered the Staples Center one after another, they were filled with anticipation, anxiety, and uneasiness...

With all kinds of emotions rushing into their hearts, at this moment, no one could understand how complicated their feelings were as Hu Mi.

This is the opening game of the 2007/08 NBA season.

It is also the focus of the first game day of the new NBA season.

On the court, when LeBron James led his Cleveland Cavaliers on the court, lined up in a row, the Cavaliers' extremely luxurious lineup left the fans at the scene drooling with envy.

Shaquille O'Neal.

Ilgauskas.

Ron Artest.

Paul Millsap.

Kyle Korver.

Chris Bosh.

In the new season, ESPN gave this evaluation of the Cavaliers:

This is a team that combines talent and experience.

In the Cavaliers, O'Neal, Korver, and Artest have all had valuable experience in winning championships.

As the leaders of the 2003 generation, the talents of Bosh and James are even more visible to the naked eye.

"This is an unequal contest." TNT TV station saw Barkley saying this during the pre-game preview.

For the nearly 20,000 Lakers fans present, the only thing that can make them feel a little better tonight is, perhaps, wearing the Lakers No. 23 jersey and chatting with Beckham, who just joined the Los Angeles Galaxy this summer. Su Feng was chatting away.

As Maple King’s official game debut in Los Angeles.

Tonight, the courtside at Staples Center lacked everything except celebrities.

Before the game, in an interview with the on-site host, Kobe also jokingly said: "You ask me what is the key to the Lakers' victory tonight?

Um.......

If Su can score 50 points, then in my opinion, we still have a good chance of winning this opening game. "

Got 50 points.....

And in front of Artest and James, one of the two best wing defenders in the league today...

"Don't listen to what Kobe says.

In my opinion, if we want to win this game, the first thing we have to do is defense. "When it was Su Feng's turn to be interviewed, Su Feng said in an official tone.

In addition, after the interview, Su Feng did not forget to look back and glare at Kobe.

No, this is 2007, you idiot, you don’t know that your mouth is more poisonous than Barkley, right?

On the court, perhaps because he felt that his presence was not strong enough, O'Neal, wearing a Cavaliers jersey, also walked up to Gasol before the game started.

"Are you the Lakers' starting center?"

Xiaojia nodded honestly.

"Have the Lakers...now fallen to the point where anyone can play the starting center?" O'Neal looked at Garfield and said.

As a wealthy team that has always had a super center in charge.

Looking at the jerseys of legendary centers one after another in the Staples Dome...

At this moment, few people can understand how sad O'Neal is for this Lakers.

"Yes, Mark is our starting center.

What, Shaq, do you have a problem with this little brother of mine? "Besides, just when Xiaojia didn't know how to answer the call, Su Feng was already standing in front of him.

O'Neal: "......"

“Welcome to Staples.

Now, I declare that this arena belongs to me! "

On the court, before the game started, after throwing magnesium powder in front of the technical stage, Su Feng jumped up, took out a magazine from somewhere, rolled it up into a microphone shape, and said.

On the sidelines, looking at Su Feng, who is about to turn 30 and is still in the middle school...

Kobe suddenly began to regret a little...

He has a friend named Su Feng.

But, looking at Su Feng like this.

Kobe admitted.

This was indeed what he admired most about Su Feng.

"MVP————!!"

"MVP————!!"

"MVP————!!"

No matter which team this guy is on...

Anyway, as long as you have Su Feng...

You will subconsciously feel that UU Reading www.uukｎshu.ｎnet this team is always full of hope!

listen.......

Staples, who was still a little quiet at first...

That deafening sound...

Isn’t this going to start rolling?

…
