Frankly speaking, Coach McHaney is a little concerned.

If Li Zhen was avoiding his own problems like this before, he would definitely throw this guy on the bench without hesitation. But now, his choice is to smile and say: "Okay, give you a good wash."

You must look tired. This period of time has indeed been too hard for you."

This is the real world. When you are weak, you will find that everyone is targeting you and scheming with you. But when you gradually become stronger, you will find that everyone is tolerant, kind, and even kind to you.

A little flattery: even though they know they can't get anything from you.

Of course, Li Zhen is not strong enough for everyone to be tolerant and kind. But for coach McHaney, he is willing to tolerate Li Zhen to this extent.

There is no way, if you want to win, you still have to rely on him.

Moreover, Bruce Lee's reputation has been too loud recently. Four consecutive incredible victories have made his name frequently in the headlines of the basketball media. Now even Lakers general manager Kupchak has called, hoping to

Visit the team's internal training games to better observe Bruce Lee.

After the Sharks traveled east, the Lakers have been struggling on the threshold of the Western Conference playoffs.

Except for Kobe, there is almost no strong point in their five positions, especially at the point guard position. Whether it is Smushparker or Sasha Vujacic, they are useless. This season... Kobe Bryant once asked the team to

He immediately made changes. He couldn't wait to get an excellent point guard as a helper. For this reason, he even suggested that the team send potential newcomers to New Jersey. Because the league's second point guard Jason Kidd seemed to be staying with the Nets.

Not very happy.

But in the end, the Lakers still didn't take the initiative. On the one hand, the Nets did not give accurate information, and on the other hand, they really couldn't let go of Bynum... because many executives believed that Bynum had a chance to take over the greatness of the Lakers center.

inheritance.

Therefore, the Lakers plan to select a good point guard in this year's draft.

Due to Kobe Bryant's heroic performance this season, it is basically impossible to have a lottery pick. Therefore, their eyes are on relatively low-end areas. The two point guards they are currently targeting who are likely to participate in the draft are from

LaGarondo of Kentucky, and Jordan Farmar of UCL.

Among the evaluations given by many Lakers scouts, Lagarondo is a poor man's version of Jason Kidd. Although his future ceiling is not high, there is a high possibility that he will become qualified.

Jordan Farmar's rating is obviously much higher. This Pacific Division superstar is leading UCLa on the road to greatness. Their head coach has even claimed more than once that Jordan Farmar is the Michael Jordan of the NCAA.

Farmar, who led UCLa to first place in the Pacific Division and averaged 18.2 points, 7.6 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.5 steals per game, is indeed worthy of praise.

In the Lakers' internal scouting report, it is clearly written: Farmar has one of the best court awareness among the current point guards. He has talented passing ability and can read the court one step beyond ordinary people.

Ability. He has become the leader of UCLa since his freshman year. In the American college basketball world where seniority-based behavior is serious, this kind of temperament is quite rare.

Farmar is very good at controlling the rhythm of the court and knows what speed to play at to best attack the opponent and help the team. He cleverly controls the rhythm of the game through dribbling and organization, completely overwhelming the opponent's defense. In addition, Farmar is a pick-and-roll master.

, is very proficient in the selection and timing of passing, sudden and shooting. He has a high basketball iq and is good at using various small moves, street skills and

Psychological warfare tricks. The only weakness is that his physical fitness is average, his explosive power in the first step is mediocre, and his speed, agility and strength are difficult to gain the upper hand in individual confrontations at the NBA level. But the strange thing is that although he is not fast, his jumping is very good, and his maximum run-up is

The jump reaches 42.5 inches! The mid-range shooting is accurate, but the three-point sight has yet to be tested. The defensive ability is average.

Such a reputation almost made the Lakers senior management decide to stud Jordan Farmar.

But recently...Stanford University's Bruce Lee caused an earthquake in Northern California, and brought the earthquake to the Mexican border yesterday. He actually scored double 20 magical data in San Diego, and used a Jordan-style reversal to kill Aldridge, the favorite for the No. 1 pick.

Longhorns led by.

Plus Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s repeated recommendations.

Kupchak decided to take a trip himself.

In the California basketball circle, the general manager of the Lakers has resources and connections that far exceed others. He easily found McHaney and then got the opportunity to enter the training game. This made the players from various teams waiting outside the door

The detective or assistant coach is very envious.

…

Before the training started, Li Zhen carefully studied the new tactical system that Coach McHaney talked about.

"This is basically the original way of playing." Scott complained with a look of displeasure: "You are responsible for carrying the basketball across the half court, and then hand it over to T.J. Walton for singles. I don't think this tactic can win the game at all."

"I think you should reject this tactic. You have to know that now scouts from all over the United States have come to San Diego to watch you. If you can't perform well in this game, they will leave in a hurry. It's hard for you now

The high popularity you maintain will soon fade away. NCAA March Madness is changing rapidly, and too many things are happening intensively. Today you are the protagonist, but tomorrow someone might have an explosive performance and steal all your light!"

Thomson also came over to emphasize to Li Zhen.

Although Frank Benson is not good at words, he also strongly supports Li Zhen's courage to say no.

No one wants to play with T.J. Walton, who averages 22.4 shots per game, and everyone wants to play with Bruce Lee, who averages 13.5 assists per game in the last 4 games.

But...in the NCAA, the head coach is the absolute authority. Those famous coaches can even dominate the sky with one hand. They don't need to pay attention to any instructions from the school and can control the playing time of any player at will.

This is fundamentally different from the NBA. The NBA is a business league. The NCAA is a league that extremely squeezes players. The head coach earns tens of millions of dollars in annual salary every year, while the players only have meal card subsidies from some schools and play particularly well.

There is a full scholarship.

Li Zhen pursed his lips.

He planned to have a good chat with Coach Jamie Lin and Coach McHaney after today’s training match.

At this moment, T.J. Walton walked into the locker room whistling.

He looked quite proud.

"Guys, your king is back! Tomorrow afternoon, let me lead you over the corpse of Kansas and break into the long-lost Sweet Sixteen!"

He was answered with indifference.

But TJ Walton didn't care.

He enjoys the feeling that all the scouts are flocking to him now, and he believes that his own era is coming soon.

Thanks to that hilarious idiot Bruce Lee for bringing attention to the Stanford Crimson team, and then... just wait till I get all the praise!

The scouts who come for him will eventually send the scouting reports with my name on them to the desks of the general managers of various NBA clubs.

Just wait and see.

NBA will be more exciting because of the great TJ Walton!
Chapter completed!
