The NBA started with helping Iverson win the championship

Chapter 376
"Okay, then I'll report to the Memphis Grizzlies."

"Shouldn't someone bully me, right? With Brother Li around, do they have the guts?"

"Since I met Brother Li this time, I feel that my strength has improved a lot, and maybe I can make a name for the Grizzlies this time."

"If it really comes out at that time, I will definitely buy Brother Li a drink."

The king said with a smile.

Li Xun nodded, "Then go, come on."

"I'll ask someone to help you buy a plane ticket, but the Grizzlies should contact you today, and they will definitely make arrangements for you."

"When you get there, you have to remember that you not only represent yourself, but also represent our group of brothers who are working hard in the NBA."

"It doesn't matter what it is, think about it first, whether it will embarrass us after doing it."

"Also let go, be more passionate on the field, don't be as boring as our brother Yao."

Li Xun ordered one after another.

The king nodded again and again, his temper is actually quite detached, after all, he is the quintessence of the little prince, that is not a joke.

In the evening, Wang Zhelin had already boarded the plane and headed directly to Memphis.

If we meet again next time, we may have to wait for the start of the new season.

Fortunately, the Knicks played against the Grizzlies earlier this year, and there was a game against the Grizzlies less than a month after the start of the game.

In the blink of an eye, the time has come to October, and the preseason is about to start.

Li Xun did not participate in the preseason this year, he is preparing for the main game of the new season.

Li Xun was quite upset when he missed the MVP last season.

This season he is ready to bloodbath the league.

October 10th, the NBA league opener date.

The Knicks host the Los Angeles Lakers in the West.

Originally, the Lakers were not qualified to play the opening game, after all, the record last season was so rubbish.

However, it is a big ball market anyway, and this season has made a lot of transactions with the Knicks, and got some outstanding players, and now the attention is very high.

Especially for Booker, in the first two days of the preseason, he even played a single 50-point game.

Now many Lakers fans have seen Kobe's shadow in Booker.

At eight o'clock in the evening, players from both sides began to enter the field.

Li Xun glanced at the Lakers' starting lineup, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Five starters, Zhou Qi, Randall, Siakam, Booker plus Shuila.

Three of the five are their Knicks players. It seems that the Lakers really attach great importance to these three players from the trade.

To be reasonable, there is actually nothing wrong with this starting lineup, it has everything it should have, and the players in each position are also quite capable.

The key point is that these players are not rookies anymore. They have all been polished in the NBA for at least one season, and their combat power has improved rapidly.

After seeing Li Xun, Zhou Qi and the three came over with a smile.

They are very happy to join the Lakers now, at least they will be able to stay in the starting position in the future.

And if he stays in the Knicks, there will be no starters now.

After chatting with each other for a while, the referee whistled and the game officially started.

In the first offensive round, Li Xun and Zhou Qi made a jump ball. The result is self-evident, and the Knicks got the offensive ball.

Rondo, who has just arrived, is still very knowledgeable.

After controlling the ball to the frontcourt, he directly passed the ball to Li Xun beside him.

Li Xun's player tonight is Siakam.

Siakam looked very thin in his prime, let alone now.

Standing in front of Li Xun, he was really as slender as a matchstick.

Li Xun bent down and began to dribble the ball with his left and right hands and slowly pushed towards the inside.

Although the speed is very slow, this pressure still makes Siakam back again and again.

When he was four steps deep into the three-point line, Li Xun suddenly moved.

After easily squeezing Siakam away, he went straight to the basket.

At this moment, Zhou Qi at the basket cheered up, he knew too well how terrifying the lethality of Li Xun rushing to the basket was.

It's a pity that after he came out, it didn't play any role.

After Li Xun touched Zhou Qi with a feint, he easily picked the ball into the basket from the side.

In the next offensive round of the Lakers, Shuila missed a three-pointer, and the rebound was caught by Li Xun who rushed to the basket.

In the Knicks' offensive round, Li Xun waved at Rondo and got the ball.

It was another strong hit to the basket, this time it scored 2+1, and scored another three-pointer.

After a few minutes passed, the Knicks fans at the scene were pleasantly surprised.

What do you mean?
Li Xun seems to be a little different tonight.

It has been at least two seasons since I came to the Knicks. During these two seasons, that is, at those critical moments, I can see Li Xunxiong's rise.

Usually Li Xun is in a state of retirement.

Otherwise, his stats last season couldn't have been just that level, not as good as Westbrook.

In tonight's game, Li Xun started bombing indiscriminately at the beginning of the game, directly treating the Lakers' restricted area as his own land.

Could it be that Li Xun was annoyed that he didn't get the MVP last season, so he should start paying attention to his statistics this season?
"boom!"

Just when the fans were curious, Li Xun dunked Zhou Qi again. In just a few minutes, he was 7 of 7, plus 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 16 points.

Not a single three-pointer, all of them carried the defensive player to the basket.

The main reason is that Siakam is too thin and has no effect on Li Xun's advancement.

Lakers coach Walton Jr. smacked his lips, feeling that the situation was a bit troublesome.

He originally didn't want to play the Knicks in the opening game. According to his thinking, if the Lakers can start playing with some weak teams and gradually find confidence, then with the talents of these players on the court, they will definitely be able to play better and better this season.

As a result, the Knicks' opener was arranged directly.

This is not over yet, I ran into Li Xun who was in a berserk state.

Shuila shot one after another, but under Rondo's defense, the shooting rate was terrible.

This cancerous style of play also directly aroused the dissatisfaction of the Knicks trio, especially Booker, who was already pale.

In his opinion, this Lakers team is 100% to be rebuilt with himself as the core.

Although Shui La's ranking is very high, he is destined to only be a helper by his side.

Looking at the usual tactical drills of Magic Johnson and Walton Jr., Booker is convinced that he is the new core of the Lakers.

But in the first game of the new season, Shui La didn't seem to have thought about tactics, all kinds of singles Rondo.

Booker called a timeout directly at the technical table, and he was going to have a good fight with Russell.

On the bench, Booker looked directly at Russell.

"D'Angelo, what do you mean?"

"We shot 11 times in the opening game, and you took 7 shots yourself, but you only scored two!"

Booker's tone was unfriendly.

Shuila shrugged, "It can't be helped, I don't feel very good tonight."

"Am I talking about the feel? Tell me why you take so many shots!"

Booker's voice has begun to grow louder.

"Huh? Why can't I take so many shots?"

After being yelled at by Booker, Russell also lost his temper, and directly confronted him.

"Who do you think you are?"

"You mean my two-time champions, as well as the All-Stars, came to the Lakers to help you?"

Booker was a little impatient.

"A member of two championships? My grandma and Li Xun can both win two championships. As for your All-Star, what is the gold content?"

Shuila doesn't show any cowardice at all.

Coach Wharton's face turned green.

He never expected that after only a few minutes of playing in the new season, his new team, the Lakers, would actually have internal strife.

Walton is known in the circle as a brother-like head coach, describing his relationship with his players as brothers.

This evaluation sounds nice, but when you think about it carefully, it actually means that Wharton has no prestige in the team.

Wharton wanted to interrupt the two, but the two ignored him and began to spray each other.

Siakam and Zhou Qi are naturally facing Booker, after all, they are teammates who came out of the Knicks together.

The young people on the Lakers side are with Shuila.

At this moment, the Lakers were directly divided into two camps.

Wharton almost vomited blood, and now he was in trouble.

Originally, he was thinking of doing a big job this season. With the current Lakers lineup, winning the championship is definitely out of the question, but he has a good chance in the Western Conference playoffs. Six or Seven.

But now that it's done like this, it's already a bit incompatible.

It is estimated that Magic Johnson will have to think about the trade-offs next, whether to use water or Booker.

The powder kegs on the sidelines have been lit, but the fire on the field is still burning.

Li Xun has been bombarding violently, the Lakers can't support it.

After the first half, Li Xun has scored 52 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists.

Driven by Li Xun's offensive, the Knicks directly scored a 77:37 score difference in the first half.

With a [-]-point lead at halftime, this is almost the level of a professional team playing an amateur team.

But it seems that the Lakers can only be regarded as amateurs in front of the Knicks.

Like their master Booker, when he was in the Knicks, he couldn't even start the game. The gap between the two teams can be imagined.

In the second half, Li Xun played for a few more minutes, and after scoring 60 points, he began to focus on organizing the offense.

Under his tandem, the difference between the two sides quickly broke through fifty, heading towards the sixty mark.

Wharton quickly called a timeout, replaced the core players, and put a bunch of cannon fodder.

The old Hornacek also hurriedly changed the lineup, because it would be a bit impolite to torture the Lakers any longer.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of cannon fodder players for the Knicks this year. Three cannon fodder were arranged, and then this year's rookies Tatum and Adebayor were put on them.

At the end of the game, Li Xun played 26 minutes and scored 60 points, 15 rebounds and 11 assists in a super large triple-double.

For those fans who didn't watch the game, I'm afraid it's hard to imagine how he managed to score 26 points in just 60 minutes.

What's even more amazing is that after 60 points, Li Xun also got 15 rebounds and 11 assists.

As for what happened on the sidelines of the Lakers, Zhou Qi also gossiped with Li Xun when they were on the court.

Li Xun didn't bother to take care of his team's affairs.

As long as the magician's brain is not flooded, he can definitely handle this kind of thing properly.

Shui La is now in his third season, and the statistics don't look bad, but those who have actually watched him play know how weak this guy is.

If you really want to find a template, the best template for Shuila is actually Marbury.

Marbury was like this in the NBA at the time. The statistics were in a mess, but he just couldn't win.

On the one hand, it is a cancer in playing, and on the other hand, its defense is terrible.

Marbury and Shuila should be the point guards with the worst defense in NBA history. To be reasonable, they may be slightly worse than Nash.

Nash really can't help it, his physical fitness is too weak.

And Shuila's physical fitness is much better than Nash's, and his defense is still so weak, it really can't be justified.

Regardless of who is the general manager of the team, between Booker and Shuila, a fool also knows how to choose.

If there is no accident, the news that the Lakers will put the water on the shelves may be known tomorrow.

Sure enough, the next morning, when Li Xun just woke up, he got the news.

It's just that the Lakers did not publicly put the water pull on the shelves, but directly contacted the Knicks to ask if the Knicks had any idea of ​​trading water pull.

Maybe the magician feels that the Knicks are short of point guards now, and may be interested in Shuila.

If the deal is reached, maybe another super rookie can be acquired from the Knicks.

It's a pity that the magician thought too much this time, not to mention the deal, he just gave the water to Li Xun, and Li Xun hated taking up salary space.

"Give it to us for free, and they have to take two draft picks, maybe we can still consider it."

Li Xun joked to the Zen master.

The Zen Master was speechless. Is this rookie Russell really that unbearable in Li Xun's eyes?
He originally thought that if the Lakers asked for a low price, he could consider it.

The Knicks rejected the deal, and the Lakers continued to find a home for Shuila non-stop.

The Knicks ushered in their second opponent this season.

The Phoenix Suns just won Zhao Jiwei.

It can be seen that the Suns still attach great importance to Zhao Jiwei, and they even invited D'Antoni back.

D'Antoni was the coach of the seven-second run during the Nash period of the Suns.

In order to reproduce the seven-second running and bombing of the year, the Suns spent a lot of money.

It's a pity that the Suns don't have players like Stoudemire and Marion now, and their running and shooting are not as gorgeous as they were back then.

However, it is still difficult to hide Zhao Jiwei's excellence.

In tonight's game, under the defense of Rondo, Zhao Jiwei still scored 16 points and 11 assists.

This is the first show of Zhao Jiwei's career, and it is already quite impressive to get such data.

And Li Xun continued his furious performance in the previous game tonight, scoring another 37 points in the halftime. After the game was over, he scored 45 points, 19 rebounds and 11 assists.

Fans from all sides are now extremely convinced.

This season's Li Xun has decided to give the league a little color.
