Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 140 [Strike to win, embarrassing proof]

The next day, Isiah Lederer was traded by many media reports because he was angry at the Lakers after being traded.

Ryder said angrily: I express strong dissatisfaction with this. I just want to play. Is this too much? Otherwise, I would have chosen the Heat instead of the Lakers. I came to help the Lakers defend their title, but they didn't ask for it. I was traded to the Nuggets just because of my opinions, which makes me feel incredible and I didn't get any respect.

Leder's eloquence is also incredible. Doesn't this make it clear that he dislikes the Nuggets? Without playing a single game, he managed to arouse the resentment of his new club's management. If he continues to go his own way, it will be difficult to finish the season.

After the Lakers trained in the morning, a reporter came to interview and asked Phil Jackson to comment on Ryder's performance in the Lakers and wonder what bad things Ryder did in the Lakers. Zen Master chose to remain silent and was too lazy to say anything to this person.

The Lakers players also tacitly didn't mention Ryder. Everyone has left. There is no need to say offensive words to add insult to injury.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Leder was not sent away, and his remarks next season will be even stupider. Although the Lakers finally won the championship with a ring belonging to Leder, he felt that the name of the ring was unfair as he watched from the sidelines.

Ryder, who doesn't eat the food that comes, said in an interview: To be honest, it doesn't have any special meaning to me, because I didn't play in the playoffs and I was not a member of the championship team in the strict sense.

He also said that he will get his ring when he plays against the Lakers on November 25. He would like this scene to happen after the Nuggets defeat the Lakers.

The funny thing is that Ryder failed to wait for the day when the Nuggets revenge his old club. He only played 10 games, and the Nuggets management couldn't bear to cut this cancer. The game against the Lakers was in the 14th game... …

From then on, no one offered him a contract, even if he averaged 10 points per game, he only needed a basic salary. As for when Leder went to the Lakers to receive his own ring, fans don't know.

That ring should be meaningful to him. In the future, after Ryder goes bankrupt, when he is arrested for domestic violence and kidnapping women, the NBA championship ring will make his life look less like a failure, and there will be a little bit of brilliance , after all, this is something Malone, Barkley, Ewing and others all dreamed of but did not get.

Unfortunately, he doesn't even have that ring in this life, and his career is a complete failure.

In the evening, the Lakers VS SuperSonics game started at Staples Arena. The Lakers trailed 26 to 30 in the first quarter.

Harper did well against Payton. Payton made 3 of 5 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 7 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists. Harper made 2 of 4 shots and scored 4 points, 1 rebound, and 2 assists.

Ruben Patterson performed very successfully on the defensive end. Kobe made 3 of 7 shots and 1 of 2 free throws. He played the entire quarter with 7 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist, which was not very efficient. Patterson made 2 of 3 shots and 2 of 2 free throws to get 6 points.

The SuperSonics' substitutes performed better. Vin Baker scored 4 points in 3 minutes, and Brent Barry came on in the last two minutes and hit a three-pointer.

The Lakers only sent Brian Shaw as a substitute in the second half, replacing Harper, and Guo Xu remained on the bench.

Guo Xu is not in a hurry, he will not take the initiative to play to defend Payton's back hit. Harper's comeback is to do this kind of dirty work. A basketball game is a battle of wits and courage. Guo Xu knows what kind of player restrains himself. Of course, the coaching staff also knows that he will not be asked to do something he is not good at.

In the second quarter, Payton rested, Guo Xu played and had the ball, and the other four were Brian Shaw, George, Horry, and O'Neal.

Guo Xu and O'Neal played a pick-and-roll in the middle, and quickly overtook the score with a wave of 11 to 2.

If the inside line is not guarded, Guo Xu can get rid of the defender with the cover of the fat man on the outside and can shoot directly.

Ewing and Vinbeck defended outside.

Guo Xu breaks through with the ball, and has an obvious advantage in speed in small hits.

Even if the big man is not passed by him, as long as he follows the defense near the bottom line, there will be gaps. O'Neal's cut in the middle is unstoppable, so he can only use the shark-cutting tactic to send him to free throws.

A simple pick-and-roll in the middle, the basic tactics of the center going down, the Supersonics can't defend well. O'Neal's impact is really terrible. No defender dares to switch to him. It would be suicide.

O'Neal didn't pass the ball hard, and the Supersonics couldn't stand it with only one inside line. Vin Baker was off the field for three fouls soon, and King Kong Ewing was even worse when he came up. He was too light and didn't foul fast enough. He was knocked out of the baseline by O'Neal with a dunk.

Guo Xu scored 7 points and 7 assists in a single quarter, and his statistics soared. He felt that if he played like this throughout the season, he might be 20+10 in his rookie season. As long as he plays the pick-and-roll, O'Pang's data bonus to the guard is obvious.

In the Magic, Anfernee Hardaway with a fat man was recognized as Jordan's successor. He played 20+4+7 data for two consecutive seasons, shooting 51.2% and 51.3% from the field. As a result, as soon as O'Neal left the Magic, Hardaway couldn't even reach 45% of his shooting percentages.

Needless to say, in the Heat, O'Neal was willing to be a green leaf, which helped Wade gain confidence and achieved dominance in 2006.

The Lakers continued to play pick-and-rolls in the second half, and role players such as Fox and Horry also shot away. The Lakers always maintained the lead.

Despite Bryant's poor form, the Lakers won without suspense, 106 to 91.

Guo Xu made 7 of 12 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, and 5 of 6 free throws. He scored 22 points, 3 rebounds, 12 assists, and 2 steals. His double-double performance was very eye-catching.

O'Neal had 34 points, 17 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 blocks. The only drawback was that he made 2 of 11 free throws. If he had made accurate free throws, the game would have entered garbage time.

After the game, the media interviewed Zen Master Jackson and asked him to comment on the game, and deliberately pointed the finger at Kobe.

Kobe scored 50+ in the last game, shooting more than 50%, the Lakers lost; Kobe made 8 of 25 shots, 0 of 1 three-pointers, 3 of 5 free throws, 19 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals. The Lakers easily won by 15 points.

Jackson didn't know how to comment, saying the Sonics were too weak? Can't be weaker than the Warriors, right?

The Lakers played well in this game because they had a lot of coordination. Only Kobe was outside the tactics, and the others had a tacit understanding.

Kobe singled out Payton and Patterson, two defensive strengths, many times. He probably felt that he scored 50+ in the game and was in good condition. He wanted to blow up the Sonics' defensive experts to prove his strength.

The result was a bit embarrassing, as Kobe's touch failed to last into this game. It was precisely because of his unstable performance that Leder dared to challenge him, always thinking that he could play him. In the last two games, Kobe has taken more shots. Not only has he not turned into Jordan, but he has also developed in the direction of Leder.

For Kobe Bryant's personality that loves to compete and likes to single out defensive strengths, Jackson has never been very understanding. The NBA has no win Payton Award or Best Defensive Player Award. What is he pursuing?

Kobe is actually jealous. The media often say that O'Neal can blow up all the insiders in the league one-on-one with his personal ability. He is the most dominant center, so Kobe wants to prove that he has the ability to blow up all outsiders one-on-one.

He is so paranoid, but he does not have this kind of dominance now.
