the great gatsby

Chapter 570 Banned!

The Lakers set off again, winning more and more games in a row. By the end of December, the Lakers only lost 12 games. The Lakers had 5 wins and 27 losses, ranking first in the league!

The funny thing is, at this time in the previous life, the record of the Lakers was 5 wins and 27 losses, just the opposite. In December, Gatsby averaged 12 points, 32.5 assists and 11 rebounds per game, averaging 10.5+ triple-doubles, and won the Western Conference again. optimal.

When the time enters January, some teams have found that the team can start to play badly, because the lineup formed during the offseason has been proved to be unfeasible in the two-month schedule, such as the Wizards, such as the Cavaliers and other teams.

There are also some teams that have begun to work hard, trying to win more games before the All-Star Game, and trying to get the team into the playoffs.

The Lakers have begun to rest their veterans. At this time, the season is almost halfway through, and there will be more and more injuries. The main reason is that the physical strength accumulated by the players has been exhausted. If there are a few days It is definitely rare to be able to take a break.

Kobe and Gasol took the lead in resting, but Gatsby didn’t get this kind of treatment. He is the leader of the team, and he can’t rest if others can rest, but Gatsby doesn’t need to rest either. That's it, come out full of energy again.

This is the reason why he has been able to maintain high efficiency and high statistics for so many seasons, and he is rarely injured. Playing with plenty of physical strength, compared with playing with fatigue, the chance of staying healthy is completely different.

After Kobe and Gasol rested, Deron and West followed suit, and then the young Jokic took a few rounds of rest, but Gatsby persisted. Jim Ain was worried about his physical condition and persuaded him repeatedly. Taking a break, Gatsby just laughed it off.

After Kobe and the others took turns to rest for two rounds, Gatsby still refused to rest. Finally, Jim Iron and Kupchak forced him to issue a team suspension. Gatsby could only smile bitterly and take a plane to New York to meet his girlfriend. Went together.

It’s no wonder that Jim Iron went crazy. When Kobe and others were resting, Gatsby was frantic in pursuit of victory on the court. In mid-December, he met the Spurs and Golden State Warriors. The opponents were strong. The main players of the team took turns to reduce discipline. In those games, Kobe, Deron, and Gasol all rested, but Gatsby did not rest. He scored 12+ triple-doubles every game and played 50 minutes. .

This pissed Jim Iron off - what if Gatsby got hurt, then everything would be over!
He couldn't talk to Gatsby, so he had to go to Kupchak, the general manager. Kupchak was very good at figuring out people's hearts. He knew that Gatsby had a strong desire to win, but he was not a stubborn person. , as long as it is based on the interests of the team, he will definitely understand, so Kupchak found Buss Jr. and said that Gatsby was going to be suspended. Buss was shocked, and he decided to implement it after more understanding.

Little Buzz also specially invited Gatsby to have dinner in his mansion, and explained the reason for doing so earnestly. Gatsby didn't make things difficult for him, but Gatsby didn't know what to do when he took a rest. Just go to New York to find a girlfriend.

He has been very busy during this period, so it would be a good choice to go back to New York to relax.

Gatsby was suspended for two games. Gatsby simply went to the Knicks to train with Thompson and others. Of course, this was done in secret. When Gatsby appeared in the training hall , Many players are well aware that the things that have caused a storm in the city before are true-Gatsby is really the owner of the Knicks!

The team's training is generally closed to the outside world. Except for certain times when it is open to the media, other times it is strictly forbidden for outsiders to come in and out, let alone players from other teams.

The teammates are more cautious about Gates than, of course, there is intimacy and respect.

Both Leonard and Thompson have matured, and Harris' strength is also skyrocketing. What surprised Gatsby was Antetokounmpo. He is still growing taller!

Not only did the athletic ability not fade while growing taller, but it became more and more excellent as the strength increased. This is amazing. Antetokounmpo has finally grown into Giannis, one of the most monsters in NBA history!
This is a talent visible to the naked eye!

However, they were singled out against Gatsby, and they were still beaten badly. Logically speaking, Thompson and Leonard were single-defense monsters, but when they faced Gatsby, they were beaten to the point of doubting their lives!
It's not their fault, even if they are single-defense against monsters, but this Gatsby in front of him has a hang on his body, and a hang is king, okay?
When they defend other people, um, this one has no basket, I can prevent him from breaking through;
Well, this one has no breakthrough, but I prefer to catch and shoot, so I will prevent him from catching the ball;

Hey, this one is amazing, it can shoot suddenly, but its body is a little weak, so I will put a dog skin plaster on it.

But there is Gatsby hanging around him, who can shoot and pass, break through the top in history, the top in CIC history, the top in three-pointer history, and his physical fitness...he is also at a historical level. Excuse me, how can he defend?
Gatsby taught these little boys who were a little bit drifting, and suppressed their arrogance.

"I've been training with you these days. You have to improve yourself quickly. Your progress is still a little slow. My request to you is that you must enter the finals. If you can't enter the finals in the Eastern Conference, then you have to That's too bad, you know, you guys are my picks, more important than any No. [-] pick, if there is a No. [-] lottery when I pick you, I will choose you without hesitation!" Gatsby gave a small goal.

Thompson and Leonard smiled. Gatsby's eyes were indeed sharp. It was an honor to be selected by Gatsby. This season they are indeed ready to enter the finals.

Gatsby looked at them with a smile: "I will wait for you in the finals. Don't think that... if it's mine, I'll let you go. It's impossible. It doesn't matter if you earn a little less or a little more. Winning the championship is the only way to win the championship." This is my goal. If you want to prove yourself, then beat me. People will give credit to me for the first four championships. If you want to prove yourself, you have to win the championship yourself. If you can beat me to get it, you will walk into the ranks of great players!"

Thompson Green, Leonard Harris and others are breathing heavily. For young people like them, getting rid of Gatsby's influence is their dream. Think about making yourself greater.

They don't want to catch up with Gatsby, they probably won't be able to catch up with Gatsby's great achievements in their lifetime, but if they can win a championship without Gatsby, their evaluation will be completely different!
Gatsby smiled slightly when he saw the blaze in the eyes of such a young man——challenges are interesting!

If the Lakers can break through the West this season, it is likely to be against the Knicks. For these former teammates, Gatsby said that it is very interesting. Iguodala, Harris's team, how interesting it will be in the future!
