Son of God in the Madness of Basketball

The news came very suddenly. Originally, the Lakers were the least dynamic team in the entire league. It can also be understood that the Lakers are the defending champions for two consecutive years. Generally speaking, the defending champions will not make too many changes to their lineup, because If you win the championship with this lineup, then it proves that the whole lineup is the strongest, and the random changes are generally self-destructing the Great Wall.

Looking at the previous dynasties, in general, even the role players have not changed much, whether it is the original bull or the later OK.

And the Lakers have just renewed Ji Feng at a record price. In the eyes of everyone, this is the most perfect signing this summer.

ESPN even bluntly said that even if the Lakers do not make a deal next, only by virtue of the success of the renewal of the season peak, you can get A + in the summer transaction evaluation.

Therefore, the Lakers fans are watching the theater to appreciate the crazy trading market this summer. As a result, just at the end of the summer, the melons even ate their own home!

For a while, the Lakers fans couldn't sit still, because everyone with a discerning eye could see that, although Ariza was only a substitute for Ji Feng in the Lakers, the average playing time in the regular season was only 13.5 minutes. It's about 10 minutes, but Ariza's role is needless to say.

Ariza averaged 7.4 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 0.8 blocks per game this season. He shot 46% from the field and 38% from the 3-point range. Compared with his playing time, this statistic is impressive.

And his more important role is defense, because of his existence, the Lakers' third position is the strongest third position in the league. He and Ji Feng have joined forces to become the nightmare of all 3 positions in the league, and it is because of him. The existence of Zen master's tactics can have more changes.

A simple example, when Ariza is at the 3rd position, Ji Feng can swing to the backcourt and even the inside line at will. If you change the Bujacic, who is already in a bad state, the Zen master dare not let Ji Feng swing at will, especially for On the Cavaliers, the Nuggets have a super three team, and Ariza will make it easier for the Lakers to win.

So if Ariza is gone and there is nothing to add to the Lakers' third position, Vujacic will return to the bench, which is undoubtedly a weakening for the Lakers.

Ji Feng also contacted Kupchak after getting the news, but Kupchak was also very difficult. Of course he hoped to keep him, but there was no way because Ariza's price was too high.

Ariza wanted to ask for a long contract. His agent ’s offer was $ 38 million in four years, and the Lakers were only prepared to give a middle class of 10 million in two years. Such a big gap made the negotiation impossible. Ali Zha also just won the championship, so young, it is difficult to seduce him with the championship, in Kupchak's heart, Ariza is not worth the price, so Kupchak can only express regret.

After Ji Feng heard it, he couldn't help it. After all, it was the business of Ariza and the management. He couldn't make a decision for any party.

So in the eyes of all fans regret, Ariza announced on September 6 as a completely free agent, began to test the free market.

Ariza ’s departure also made many Lakers fans angry, and many people ran to his social accounts to leave a message to DISS him.

But although many people scolded him, before leaving, Ariza called Ji Feng specifically:

"Sorry brother, I have decided to test the free market. I have had a great time here this year. This is the best group I have encountered in my career. We are a real TEAM, and I finally got the total Champion, this is the ultimate dream of all players, I really like it here, but there is no way to brother, my child was born, I have to support my family. "Ariza said on the phone.

Seriously, Ariza had a great time here this year. Although he is a substitute, he is very happy with Ji Feng. If he can choose, he really wants to stay. After all, this is the championship team.

"Man, I can understand you. I wish you all the best, and we will meet at the stadium." Ji Feng replied.

To be honest, Ji Feng is not angry at all. It is a pity at most. The NBA is a commercial league. It is not uncommon to leave like this here. It can be said that the streets are full of people. Stop and go is a part of it.

And as Ariza said, he needs to support his family. He is not an All-Star player. He does not pay much attention or endorsements. His income is basically salary, so a big contract is in his career. The importance of it is self-evident, it is understandable that the champion will chase a bigger contract after getting it.

So after hanging up the phone, Ji Feng can only accept this fact. In fact, Ariza left and left. It won't hurt the Lakers' foundation. As long as the starter is there, they won't have much problem.

But just as the Lakers have accepted Ariza's departure from top to bottom, preparing to start a new season with the existing lineup, the story has turned again!

"Crazy! Ariza signed with the Rockets!" ESPN said in the morning news on the 8th, and the Rockets officially confirmed the news.

Ariza has signed 33 million Rockets in three years!

Before the Rockets fans were happy that they had collected some of the league's three best defenses, the Rockets official updated the news.

Artest leaves the team!

Public opinion uproar!

Fans have expressed no wonder that the Rockets signed Ariza at such a high price, it turned out that Artest was leaving the team!

After leaving the Rockets, Artest told the interview that he left because he wanted to win the championship: "He wants to go to a team that can compete for the championship!"

This time stabbed Ma Honeycomb, the teams began to stretch out olive branches, wanting to recruit this strong third position!

Although Artest now has reached the age of 30, he is still the league's third-digit player. Last season, Artest played 69 games in total, averaging 17.1 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.52 steals.

His three-point shooting percentage reached a career high of 39.9% (153 of 383 shots ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ 105 steals throughout the season, this data ranked first in the Rockets.

As of July 2009, Artest has entered the top five in the league in three steals in the past eight seasons in the NBA, and nine of the 10 seasons in his career are the team's most steals.

You can say that Artest is an unstable factor, a villain on the court, dirty playing, not honest outside the court, but a locker room bomb, but you cannot deny that he is a good player.

So the first time he learned that Artest left the team, Ji Feng immediately contacted the Lakers management with the purpose of four words: recruit Artest!

"Ah? Recruiting Artest?" Kupchak's first reaction was that Ji Feng didn't think too much, but the second reaction was that he was thrilled!

That's Artest!

If you can recruit Artest to the team, then the combination of Jifeng, Kobe, Artest and the outside pair, plus the inside two towers, Kupchak will be drooling!
