Without Kobe, there are not many teams in the league whose hard power is worse than the Lakers. The newly formed Charlotte Bobcats happen to be one of them.Against the Bobcats at home, the Lakers, who have suffered a two-game losing streak, cannot afford to lose!

Except for the No. [-] pick Okafor, the new recruits in this league were all selected from the protection list of each team.Although there are also potential rookies like Gerald Wallace released by the Kings, most of the players are drinking fountains outside the main rotation of other teams. Their strength is limited, and they are naturally at a disadvantage against the Lakers.

The progress of the game was similar to what Ke Yan envisioned. The game was very open. The Bobcats and the Lakers fought against each other. Gerald Wallace showed his almighty skills in this rhythm of offensive and defensive transitions, and he was able to score. Can grab rebounds, chase shots, and send assists.

The No. [-] pick Okafor also showed his potential in the game. Unlike other promising inside players, he didn't have any outstanding performance on the offensive end, but made some contributions on the defensive end.

However, the obvious weakness of this Bobcats team is poor offense and lack of outside shooting ability.Throughout the game, the Bobcats made 14 outside shots and only hit 3 goals, which became their Achilles' heel.

The Lakers shrunk their defense in the second half, and both Braden Knight and Gerald Wallace could only rush outside with the ball.

In comparison, the Lakers' offense appears to be very methodical and skillful.This is also the immediate change that Ke Yan brought to the Lakers. With or without Kobe as the last operator, the team's tactics can be played well, unless you have Duncan, Garnett, and Ben Wallace. A good inside defense player, otherwise it is really not easy to limit the Lakers' various offenses.

Whether Okafor has this potential is hard to say, anyway, at least the current ability is impossible.

As the Rockets lost to the Mavericks in the Texas Civil War, the Lakers continued to secure the fifth place in the West.

That is, after this game, the NBA announced the All-Star starter voting for the East and West this season.Yao Ming, a little giant from China, was once again elected as the All-Star vote leader, owning the entire China as a vote bank, Yao Ming's vote power is unrivaled in the world.Even if Jordan comes back for the third time, don't even think about taking the vote winner from him!

Unlike the previous two seasons when he overwhelmed O'Neal as the starter and was controversial, Yao Ming, who has grown further this season, has truly become the "No. [-] center in the Western Conference."

The "handsome incident" had a devastating blow to Kobe's image, but since the new season, Kobe's performance has been quite outstanding, which has brought back a lot of popularity for him.In addition, the existence of Ke Yan also brought Kobe a certain popularity within China, and Kobe successfully became the All-Star starter.

Tracy McGrady, Duncan, and Garnett occupy the other three starting seats in the Western Conference All-Stars.

In the East, the Shaquille O'Neal, who traveled east to Miami, returned to the starting position after two years away from the All-Star start. Also returning after many years is Grant Hill, who returned from a serious injury.The remaining three positions are James, Iverson and Carter.

The four major teams gather to fight each other in the starting lineup, the Yao Sha duel, the little emperor James' first All-Star Tour, and this Denver All-Star will definitely be a classic in the fans' memory in the future.

. . . . . .

Ke Yan proposed three candidates to strengthen the team's second position. Kupchak got in touch with the Magic, Kings and Pistons based on the principle of micromanagement.The Magic, which took the lead in responding, responded very simply and did not consider trading Stevenson for the time being.

Last season has been a bad season for the No. [-] pick, and he traded Tracy McGrady in exchange for immediate combat power. Hill has returned to health. This season, the Magic's willingness is to strive to enter the playoffs. The team needs Stevenson's contribution at the second position and is not interested in the bargaining chips that the Lakers can provide.

On the Kings side, the value of Kevin Martin is unexpectedly valued!Unlike easily letting Barnes come to the Lakers, Kevin Martin's high basketball IQ, flexible off-ball movement, and excellent shooting skills on the perimeter are very appetizing for Adelman, although he is too thin to fight well. Can't be reused for now, but Kevin Martin's place is in Adelman's future plans.

Coupled with the rivalry between the two teams, the Kings' asking price for Kevin Martin was very high, and Kupchak swears directly after hanging up the phone.

Instead, last season's opponents in the finals, the Pistons, put forward their asking price in good faith. The Lakers' substitute insider Chris Mim.

Okur left the team due to salary issues, and the Wallace Brothers lost a very reliable inside substitute.Veteran Mike Dyess is not enough alone, and Milicic, the "parallel importer", was not favored by head coach Larry Brown and became a victory cigar.Joe Dumars has been thinking about filling the team's interior.

This asking price was stuck at a very uncomfortable point for Kupchak, because he knew that Ke Yan would definitely agree to this asking price.

Under Ke Yan's rule, Mihm's playing time ranked sixth among the inside players in the team, less than Odom, Anderson, Diop, Grant, and Cook.Even Ke Yan often uses a small lineup to put Barnes on top of the power forward. From this perspective, Ke Yan absolutely supports sending away his useless Mim in exchange for Delfino who can strengthen the team's perimeter.

But as a general manager, sometimes you need to plan ahead.There are only three serious centers on the team, Anderson, Diop, and Mihm. Sometimes they face insiders like O’Neal, Duncan, and Yao Ming. Don't these teams have to disarm and surrender?

Kupchak hesitated again and again, and kicked the ball to Ke Yan: "The Pistons are asking for Chris Mim, do you think it is necessary for us to send Chris away for Delfino?"

"It's not another Chris, what's the problem?" Ke Yan said very bachelor.

What is the use of so many insiders?Can the Lakers meet the Heat in the playoffs, or can they meet the Rockets in the playoffs?If the team can meet the Heat in the playoffs this season, Ke Yan will be happy to lose 0:4, which means that he led the Lakers to the finals!

The reality is that the team can't even say playoffs right now.If they managed to make it to the playoffs as a team in the lower half, they would be underdogs against anyone, and would they even care if the opponent was the Spurs?With Mim in the Lakers, can they beat the Suns and Mavericks?

"OK!" Kupchak was waiting for Keyan's words, "I'll contact Joe Dumars and prepare the transaction documents."

"Wait a minute!" Ke Yan stopped Kupchak, hesitated for a moment, and added, "Try to ask Milicic if you want to make sure the deal goes through."

Kupchak looked at Keyan, a little embarrassed.

Although he is a parallel importer, there is a saying that "a rookie looks for three years".If you type it out, won't you slap yourself in the face?

"The Pistons now have two Wallaces, and McDyess on the bench, and if they want to leave Chris, how many opportunities do you think there are left for Dakomilicic?" Ke Yan explained.

"Let me ask."
