Chapter 378: Team building core (five/five)

In the front row, the Lakers general manager Kupchak looked at the field thoughtfully.

At that time, he chose Tang Hao in that order, and Kobe played a big role in it. Later events also proved that it was a very wise decision.

The 101 points made Tang Hao's reputation even worse, and also let Kupchak fall into a choice.

Tang Hao's super scoring ability gives him the potential to become the core of the Lakers for the next ten years, but Kupchak's choice is not whether he should choose Tang as the core of the team, but when he will be the team core.

Originally in the team's plan, the Lakers' goal this season was to put it down and hoard high draft picks, but because of the appearance of Tang Hao, the team played 4 wins and 2 losses at the present record, which is much better than expected, even Has the potential to enter the playoffs.

At this time, whether to instruct coach Scott to continue to lose and lose, or to seek trade reinforcement to improve the competitiveness of the team, these are two completely different directions, and he must be the choice as a general manager.

The game on the court is still going on. During the period when Tang Hao was off the court, the Lakers' lead was eaten a little by the Thunder.

Excluding the two points of Tang Hao and Kobe, and then to make a comparison of strength, the Thunder are significantly better than the Lakers.

Scott saw that the momentum was wrong, and just one minute after the fourth quarter, Tang Hao was replaced.

Seeing Tang Hao re-enter the stage, the audience followed with a burst of excited cheers.

The fans are particularly fond of their new darling.

At this time, the score on the field was 99 to 97. The Lakers' double-digit lead had been eaten up to only 2 points.

Tang Hao is a point guard. Scott matched him with players very similar to the last game. All players are defenders better than attackers.

Durant and Westbrook are both sitting off the court, and Tang Hao's counterpoint is the Thunder's backup point guard lightning strike Jackson.

This is Jackson's last rookie season, he is outstanding, he is the sixth player in the Thunder team.

Tang Hao advanced the ball to the frontcourt. In addition to the lightning strike Jackson, Perry Jones also moved to the middle position between him and Davis. Seeing the posture, as long as he chooses to attack, Morrow's bag It will come up in the next second.

Tang Hao directly chose the rapid breakthrough.

Jones's wallet rushed over in a second.

Tang Hao's breakthrough just started, and he fell into a double-team situation.

The division of labor between the two is clear. One after the other, there is a sense of defensive hierarchy, and Jones opened his feet to maximize his defensive area.

At this moment, Tang Hao moved, he started a layup, and then suddenly the oil quickly sent the ball forward.

The ball flew out of Tang Hao's hand and flew towards Jones.

"boom!"

The ball hit Jones' crotch precisely and then bounced high.

Behind Jones, Davis bounced a ball in front of him, and the angle was perfect. He didn't need to bend down, he just stretched his hand and caught the ball in his hand.

Between him and the basket, there was no one.

Jones turned and tried to go back, but it was obviously slow.

Although Davis is a role player, he has excellent physical fitness. After receiving the ball, there is no dribble. Taking the ball directly is a two-handed slam dunk.

"Bang~"

Davis is so powerful that he hangs his entire weight upwards, and the pressed baskets are down several centimeters.

The audience followed by a burst of cheers.

This ball Davis buckle is beautiful, Tang Hao pass is more beautiful.

As long as Brooks puts Tang Hao in the bag, Tang Hao can always find the most suitable passing point and the best passing time in the first time.

It doesn't matter if you don't vote in the open position. Can Kong Lan always get in?

Lightning strikes Jackson to the frontcourt and greets the pick-and-roll. His speed is so fast that he gets to the rim in a blink of an eye, using speed to squeeze past Davis, starting with a flying layup.

Just then, a figure flew over from his head.

Tang Hao's big hand greeted Jackson's shot is a nailboard big hat.

The audience watched with excitement.

Davis grabbed the rebound and gave it to Tang Hao. Tang Hao launched a fast-break defense counterattack.

Several other players on the Lakers were fast forward in the first time, but the Thunder retired quickly.

Tang Hao quickly attacked Moro's defense to the frontcourt.

At this time Jones on the other side quickly defended.

Tang Hao noticed that the Lakers on both sides were following up, pulling the ball back with his right hand, and then with his right wrist.

Seeing this scene, many audiences shouted excitedly.

Tang Hao actually played the back pass.

Jones responded quickly, and went straight to pounce.

But the next second, something that everyone did not expect at the scene happened. After the ball was pulled out on the right wrist, Tang Hao stretched out his left hand at the same time, catching the ball passed by his right hand, and then exerted his strength to the right. Fling.

The basketball that was originally to the left suddenly changed direction and flew out to the right.

Alternate hand pass behind!

When this scene appeared, the audience was shocked.

This scene is not unprecedented in the history of NBA, but there is only one person in history, that is, Jason Williams, known as "white chocolate".

As the most creative point guard in history, many of Williams' passes have become irreproducible classics. Alternating hand passes are one of them.

This not only considers the player's judgment, but also tests the player's physical coordination ability, because as long as a place does not keep up, it is likely to be a step directly, or directly pass the ball out of bounds.

But now, he was copied by Tang Hao, the scorer!

This only shows that Tang Hao's passing is not weaker than his incredible scoring ability!

"Tang is the basketball god, he controls the court!" The live commentator was completely convinced by Tang Hao's pass.

Wesley Johnson, who followed on the right, happened to be on the pass, and he grabbed the basketball as soon as he reached out.

In front of him, he was already empty and blue. He took the ball and took two steps. With his right hand, the ball was relaxed and the ball rolled into the rim.

4 to 0, Tang Hao didn't score after playing, but two passes that were enough to be selected for the top ten, instantly re-established the team's lead.

After watching these two balls, Kupchak gradually cleared his choices.

The Thunder and Lakers game ended with the Lakers winning by 5 points.

Tang Hao went crazy in the whole game, taking 52 points and 30 assists. Basically, every attack of the team was directly or indirectly related to him.

After the game, the audience's mood rose, and the media even fry directly.

The previous game had 101 points and a big package. In this game, it turned into a master of control field and fought 5030. He succeeded in catching assists. Tang Hao's performance was absolutely unprecedented in history.

Not only did many basketball fans stun their jaws and found that basketball can still be played like this, but also many audiences were conquered by Tang Hao's gorgeous and explosive scoring method and haunted passes. They never played basketball, and they began to pay attention to basketball. This movement.

The time is fast, Tang Hao has been in NBA for a month. In this month, he averaged 413 points and 12 assists per game, leading the Lakers to an 8-4 record, ranking first in the West. Four places, the situation in the playoffs is good.

This performance also made Kupchak iron heartless, ready to strengthen the lineup, not to win the championship, but to re-enter the playoffs.

Under the tone of this song, he began to seek players who might be available on the market.

When the trading market was still calm, he and his management team began to contact the general managers of the teams.

Soon, a series of potential trading objects surfaced.

Rajon Rondo, the cleanup target of the Celtics reconstruction, the transaction value is quite cheap, the Lakers can pay for Jeremy Lin plus a second-round draft pick.

Lightning strikes Jackson, and the bargaining chip is not high. The Thunder clearly cannot renew Jackson. Now they can only get a chip from the first round or a player with a rotation level in this round.

Josh Smith, the small forward that the Pistons just signed this season, fared worse than expected and became the team's cleanup target. This chip is even cheaper, and he can get a second-round pick by trading himself.

There are many players, but not many can really change the strength of a team.

After a long time of thinking, Kupchak aimed at the Celtics' Rondo.

From the information collected, Rondo is very interested in joining the Lakers, and compared to Smith and Jackson, his contract is only one and a half years left, and the team can completely throw him off the offseason.

Los Angeles has entered the winter in December. After the temperature has dropped, residents on the road have also reduced their outing activities, and the heat of the whole city has dropped a lot.

However, unlike the city cooling, the Los Angeles ball market entered a small one at this time.

In the full two months before the trade deadline, the Lakers took the lead and completed two consecutive transactions with the Celtics and Pelicans.

The Lakers sent Steve Nash's expired contract Wesley Johnson and a second-round draft pick to get Rajon Rondo from the Celtics.

The news of the former Boston championship ball joining the Purple Gold Corps seemed interesting at first glance, but for Kupchak's deal, the external evaluation was quite bad.

The Lakers and Celtics are dead rivals. Rondo even complained with the Lakers in the past. Kupchak's practice of digging people from the dead rivals has made many fans feel disdain.

Moreover, it is unacceptable to trade Nash who is unable to play due to injury and is about to retire.

In fact, it was Rondo himself, who once regarded the Lakers as dead, but now agreed to join the practice, making him highly negatively appraised.

On the other hand, Rondo’s strength declined significantly after injury, and he has not proven himself after leaving the Big Three, but he is very temperamental. The Lakers traded in him. In the eyes of many people, it seems to be one. The wrong can't be wrong.

Coincidentally, another deal for the Lakers is that other people can not understand directly.

Ryan Anderson, a player who looks like he will only shoot three-pointers and is a defensive black hole player. The Lakers paid the team's starting point guard Jeremy Lin for this. head.

Most people do not understand these two transactions, but a few fans are excited.

Regardless of whether the chip value paid is not worthwhile, these two transactions have upgraded the team at the point guard and power forward positions. It is foreseeable that Tang Hao does not need to play full in every game in the next game. Field.

Tang Hao only knew about the transaction the day after the transaction.

Jeremy Lin’s closet was next to him, but the next day he found it was empty. This feeling made him experience the cruelty of the nba alliance.

However, he knows that he can't play an entire career in NBA like other players, so that feeling basically just flashes and then returns to normal.

It was at this time that Scott led the two into the dressing room.

"Hey, guys, we have a new partner."

Followed by Scott came two people, a man with a height of nine meters and a tough cheek guard. This Lakers player basically knows that. The Celtics former master, Rajon Rondo, the former full Star player.

The other one, white big man, square face, also has a beard and a jaw, with a 2 meter head.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Rajon Rondo, I believe some people should know, hey, Rajan, say hello to everyone." Scott said and turned back.

"Hey, everyone, we will be a member of the team in the future, and I believe we will be able to get along with each other." Rondo is not the kind of person who is good at speech, and the opening remarks are slightly serious.

The response of the Lakers team was rather ridiculous. Although the former Jeremy Lin was a yellow man, he was very sociable. For players who were traded with Jeremy Lin and were still foes of the past, they don’t seem to be so cold.

Kobe was wearing a suit in the locker room at this time~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Instead, he was very generous with the arrival of Rondo. After he got up, he smiled and said: "Rajan, welcome to the Lakers."

"Kobe, thank you." Rondo looked at Kobe gratefully. Kobe's generosity made him feel very useful.

Tang Hao also stood up from his seat at this time and opened his hands to Rondo.

"Hey, pull Jane." Tang Hao didn't say too many beautiful words, but just as casual as an old friend greeted.

"Tang." Tang Hao's approach made Rondo's emotions very exciting. If Kobe was a foreshadowing, then Tang Hao's now is a small one.

The two hugged together, and Rondo couldn't help but, like a friend, reached out and patted Tang Hao on the shoulder.

"I'm Ryan Anderson, I'm very happy to be a teammate with everyone, and I'm excited to join a team with a deep history." Before waiting for Scott to speak, Anderson offered to greet everyone.

As can be seen from this move, Anderson is obviously a more talkative and cheerful person than Rondo. ()
