Chapter 62 The First Brother of Fan Xi in the Lakers
When Fan Xi asked for a timeout and walked to the bench, everyone on the court was surprised. They didn't expect it. They didn't know why Fan Xi suddenly asked for a timeout, even though he only played half a round.
Phil Jackson also didn't understand. Both he and Kobe were worried... whether there might be something wrong with Fanshie's health.
At this moment, Fanci walked over and said to Phil Jackson: "I suddenly realized that you are right, I should play the No. 2 position next. Moreover, Dunleavy Jr. and I did not find a chemical reaction."
As soon as Fan Xi said these words.
Phil Jackson gets it.
He is a smart man.
The other players on the team are not stupid either. They all know that Dunleavy Jr. has been targeting Fanshi after he was traded, and they also tried to suppress Fanshi.
Fan Xi has always tolerated him.
But now, Fan Xi finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he gently and deftly handed out a soft knife.
Dunleavy didn't take it seriously. He looked at Phil Jackson and said, "Coach, I can provide strong output on the wing. Jack may not be suitable for the No. 2 position."
Dunleavy Jr. has blind confidence in himself. He believes that Phil Jackson will be on his side. After all, he is an experienced veteran player and the most lacking wing three-point shooter for the Lakers.
"You're right, Mike." Phil Jackson nodded to Dunleavy Jr. and said, "Jack may not be suitable for the No. 2 position, but he should be allowed to try. Since you haven't had a chemical reaction yet, why don't you sit first?
Rest on the bench."
With a smile on his face, Phil Jackson inadvertently handed a soft knife to little Dunleavy.
Little Dunleavy looked shocked.
Until he heard the chuckles of his teammates around him.
The meaning of this laughter is complicated, but there is an obvious declaration... that young Dunleavy is a clown, he is too ignorant of the situation.
Only then did young Dunleavy realize that he had looked down on Fan Xi.
From the moment he joined the Lakers, he wanted to confront Fanxi and establish his own status. At that time, no teammates tried to stop him because everyone thought it was impossible. Fanxi did not confront him, thinking that he was just confused.
But now, Fan Xi was annoyed by him and showed his true colors.
At that time, young Dunleavy was defeated.
Like a clown.
Little Dunleavy himself realized that he looked like a clown.
Phil Jackson replaced Derek Fisher and Luke Walton for Fancy, allowing Fancy to move to the 2 position.
The self-righteous little Dunleavy was thrown to the bench without any suspense.
At this time, veteran Joe Smith sitting next to him told him: "Do you know why you can come to the Lakers? It's because Ron Artest did not clearly support Jack in an incident before, and Steve Blake was full of enthusiasm for Jack.
envy."
When young Dunleavy heard this, he suddenly gasped. Only then did he realize that he had kicked an iron plate. If he wanted to establish authority over him, wouldn't it mean that he was making trouble on Tai Sui's head?
"The absolute core of the Lakers now is Kobe Bryant, the superstar, Pau Gasol, the second leader, Lamar Odom, the third leader, and Derek Fisher, the locker room leader who stabilizes the morale of the team." Joe Smith
Breaking down the division of power in the Los Angeles locker room with newcomer Dunleavy.
"However, Jack is already the team's management and coaching staff, and even Kobe Bryant's designated future core. Therefore, he is second only to Kobe in terms of tactical say. Even Kobe will deliberately create the ball for him on the court.
.”
Joe Smith talks about it.
The more Dunleavy heard, the more frightened he became. He quickly asked: "Isn't the future successor of the Lakers Andrew Bynum? They have been training him since 2005."
"hey-hey."
Joe Smith smiled and said: "Andrew Bynum is indeed still the future successor of the team, but I don't think he has gained Kobe's trust. Moreover, the longer the successor serves as the successor, the easier it is for his shortcomings to be exposed.
Annoying."
"Prince Charles of the United Kingdom has been the crown prince for so many years. I feel that sooner or later he will be ahead of the Queen."
Joe Smith said it to the point.
The history of the job of a successor, that is, a prince, through the ages has fully demonstrated that it is not easy to do.
After saying this, little Dunleavy also understood.
He took a deep breath and said to Joe Smith: "I understand, I will go and apologize to Jack later."
Young Dunleavy comes from a basketball family, and he knows very well what it means to be able to bend and stretch.
He is even willing to be Fan Xi's little brother now.
boom!
There was another muffled sound from the court. Dunleavy raised his head and looked into the court. Fanshee, who had completed a dunk, was hanging on the basket.
Although Dunleavy didn't see what happened, he immediately jumped up waving a towel: "Jack! Well done! Great job!"
Dunleavy shouted at the top of his lungs.
When Fan Xi landed, her eyes looking at him became confused.
He was very confused that the person who provoked him just now was actually acting like a dog.
"This is the heritage of a basketball family."
Joe Smith exclaimed, "You are really good at licking. This is not playing basketball, it is clearly playing against the world."
He subconsciously looked at the old Clippers coach Dunleavy on the other side of the court. He was wondering, could this guy get the position of head coach in this way?
Fan Xi landed from the basket.
Just now, he passed Randy Foye with lightning speed, then quickly entered the penalty area, taking advantage of DeAndre Jordan and Griffin not retreating in time, and slammed the basketball into the basket.
In this attack, Fanshi perfectly demonstrated his talent for seizing breakthrough opportunities.
Phil Jackson was very satisfied.
Looking back, Davis still engaged in a pick-and-roll with Griffin. Griffin received the basketball and mustered up the courage to rush to the penalty area, but his dunk was interfered with again.
It's Pau Gasol.
Pau Gasol is born with long hands and feet. Although his style of play is weak, he is still an interception force that cannot be underestimated when standing in the penalty area.
Griffin's jumping ability is very strong, but he only has a pair of short hands, so... bang!
He was blocked by Pau Gasol less than 20 centimeters away from completing the dunk.
Fan Xi picked up the dropped basketball from behind him, and then he launched a quick offensive.
Griffin, who encountered a blocked shot again, was severely weakened and his confidence was almost lost.
He actually didn't chase after him, and Fanci arrived in the frontcourt, opened up the strong side and had a battle with Randy Foye, and quickly passed it to Gasol who was passing down. Gasol received the basketball and entered the penalty area for a layup.
succeed.
Phil Jackson was extremely excited when he saw this ball.
Fanci's presence and insight in the two waist areas surprised him. He realized that as long as Kobe and Fanci were placed on the strong and weak sides, allowing them to seamlessly connect, and deploying Gasol, who is full of mobility, inside, and having
Bynum, who has strong pushing ability, is paired with tall shooters Dunleavy and Fisher on the outside... and then paired with Lamar Odom, Matt Barnes and other elite players.
There is great hope for this year’s finals!!
Phil Jackson exchanged glances with Old Winter, and the excitement and excitement in his eyes could no longer be suppressed.
Although the talent of this lineup is slightly less than that of the Miami Heat, Miami's lineup is not as reasonable as this lineup, and it is a ready-made tactic that has been used for many years. After all, it is the first time for the Heat to build a team...
Phil Jackson is already thinking about his Finals opponent.
As for the Clippers?
The dogs don't even look.
In fact, Blake Griffin's mental endurance was on the verge of collapse after being blocked by Van Hey and a majestic dunk. In addition, after being blocked by Pau Gasol, he completely lost his courage.
.
He no longer pursues the miracle of blocking Fan Xi and destroying Fan Xi that he claimed before the game.
Griffin is even a little confused now.
Not everyone has the same psychological quality as Fan Xi. Although Griffin has a rare super talent, his life has always been too smooth and he cannot withstand setbacks.
From arrogance to depression, it didn't even take two quarters of the game.
Baron Davis's psychological quality is much stronger than Griffin's. After all, he dunked Kirilenko and led the Warriors to complete the Black Eight legend.
However, he was old and frail after all.
Many times, he has more than enough ambition but not enough power.
He really wanted to rush in and complete a dunk like he did when he was young to boost the morale of the team.
However, his legs, which were filled with lead, reminded him that he could no longer jump.
He had to rely on outside shooting.
However, he has never been a stable shooter. When his hand feels smooth, he can kill the game, and when his hand feels not smooth, he can kill himself.
Tonight, he was in the latter state.
Finished midfield.
68:49.
The outcome of the game loses suspense.
Fanci's performance at the second position was like a miracle, even smoother than when Kobe was on the court. Of course, this was due to the huge containment of Pau Gasol in the paint. Gasol was particularly excited tonight and his shooting percentage was very high.
Super high.
In addition, Fisher also hit frequently from beyond the three-point line.
"I think after seeing this, everyone will even forget why they stayed in front of the TV in the first place?"
During halftime, Kenny Smith said in a ridiculous tone: "Griffin is like a boiled eggplant now. He doesn't even have the desire to connect the ball. Baron Davis only keeps shooting three-pointers."
When trying a three-pointer from outside the line, I don't see how he has the power to suppress Jack."
"I even thought they were Jack's assistants."
"They use their own incompetence to serve as a foil to Jack's greatness."
Kenny Smith said extremely sarcastically.
Even Charles Barkley, who was least willing to admit that Fanci was powerful, had to admit at this time: "Jack is indeed the second best outside player on the Lakers. It is foreseeable that when Kobe and Gasol get older,
, he and Bynum will become a new version of the Lakers team."
Who wants to make a new version of OK combination with him?
Lying in the hospital bed, Andrew Bynum threw the remote control at the TV... At that time, the TV was smashed by him and the image was no longer clear, but Kenny Smith's words continued to penetrate his ears.
"I think... after having Jack, the Lakers don't seem to need Bynum that much. Although he is a full-size center and has been trained by the legendary center Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for many years,... the trend in the league seems to be more and more towards centers.
unfavorable……"
Kenny Smith's words made Bynum furious.
He hated this damn commentator who was praising Jack Fan.
I also hate the two guys on the Clippers who overestimate their capabilities. If Griffin and Davis hadn't vowed before the game that they could destroy Jack, there wouldn't be so many people paying attention to this game now.
Now he's fine, even the nurse who changed his dressing is saying that handsome Jack Fan is the new star of Los Angeles.
Bynum was furious.
…
In fact, Griffin was even more angry. Griffin consulted Bynum for information before the game. Bynum swore to Griffin at that time: Jack Fan's physical fitness is very bad, you can ravage him however you want.
No matter how I ravage him, he can’t even hit me on the shoulder when he jumps up….
Griffin took Bynum's word for it.
What now?
"I won't fight."
Griffin sulked in the locker room and told the team doctor: "My knee hurts."
The No. 1 pick’s knees are precious knees, and they are related to the cornerstone of the Clippers for the next ten years.
Not to mention...Griffin has already had a minimally invasive surgery.
The medical team quickly made the decision to let him rest. Although head coach Dunleavy could see Griffin's unwillingness to face the emotion, he did not point it out. After all, he comes from a basketball family, and a basketball family knows how to understand the world.
It is really difficult to change anything when Griffin comes on the court? Maybe, he can complete one or two dunks, but what if the opposite Jack Fan dunks more?
The entire Lakers team played like crazy tonight, and the Clippers failed on both offense and defense.
At this time, it makes sense for Griffin to stop the loss in time.
And he can also say that he played despite being injured and regained some face.
In contrast, Baron Davis has no way to escape.
He had no choice but to bite the bullet.
However, for him, reputation is not as important as young Griffin.
He has reached the end of his career. He is the one who said the harsh words, so let him bear it.
well!
This is probably the fate of walking in the world.
At this moment, Baron Davis even thought of the Beatle Hardaway. Back then, when he was just starting out, Tim Hardaway, who was famous in the mid-1990s, had already entered the end of his career. He met Tim Hardaway.
, and he was not merciful at all. In that game, he stepped on Tim Hardaway and established his leadership position in the Hornets.
Today, things are changing.
A new generation replaces the old.
After Davis figured this out, he felt a little relieved.
At the same time, in the Lakers locker room, Dunleavy Jr. sincerely apologized to Fan Xi.
He showed an unprecedented low profile, which was not only beyond Fanci's medical treatment, but also beyond the expectations of Kobe Bryant.
Kobe couldn't help but sigh: Your special girl is really a talent.
However, Fan Xi did not deliberately embarrass young Dunleavy. He just said that we should strengthen cooperation and that everyone has the same goal.
Dunleavy quickly promised to obey Fan Xi's instructions from now on.
This action made Fan Xi dumbfounded.
He never dreamed that... Dunleavy Jr. would actually become his first little brother in the Lakers.
