Chapter 459 The new king of the alliance
The day after the SuperSonics won the championship, a trend began to quietly arise among basketball fans across the United States.
——Asians have become the biggest boss in the NBA! We are helping our opponents develop talents!
——Just wait and see, if this continues, not to mention the NBA championship, even the world championship and Olympic champion will be taken over by that Asian!
——Those idiots in Seattle are still having fun. They have no idea what kind of devil they are cultivating. The US men's basketball team will fall into the dust and never make a difference!
——Oh my God, please God give us a second Jordan to punish that Asian! If he wins another championship, I will never want to watch the NBA again!
——Hahaha, you just can’t eat the grapes and say sour grapes. If the Lakers win the championship, won’t there be an Asian in the Lakers? You won't say anything anymore.
——That is, don’t look at the problem from such a narrow perspective. Our United States is open, free and absolutely democratic. Seattle will always support Lin Dong!
——Washington State fans say we also support the new basketball god! The one and only Lin Dong and his Sonic Queen!
——Go away, you idiot in Washington, someone will definitely step up and deal with that Asian guy next season!
——Hey, brother! Please add the word "state" when talking about Washington, so as not to affect us in Washington, D.C., our wizards are also victims!
There were cries and howls on the Internet. Fans across the United States were protesting, and their overwhelming numerical advantage was overwhelming the fans in Washington State.
Cleveland, in a luxurious villa...
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a huge swimming pool.
At this time, the servants had already been cleared by the swimming pool. Under the elegant blue sky and white clouds, a classic black and white physical fight had just ended!
The tired men and women were lying on the beach chairs by the swimming pool. After experiencing the extreme cloud and rain just now, they were enjoying the beauty of the sun and recovering the energy that had been consumed for more than an hour.
"Oh, it looks like you are much more tired than playing ball." The woman teased the man's heaving chest with her fingers with interest, and said slyly.
"After all, you only need 48 minutes of exercise on the court." LeBron's dark and generous cheeks were covered with beads of sweat. With a serious expression and the calmest language, he said the words that most seduce this woman: "To me, you are the only one." The best defender in the world."
The girl was made to laugh, it was Laura Ballmer.
In the year since she took over the Cleveland Cavaliers, she feels as if a new world has opened up for her - these guys are so strong, and this is simply a paradise for a free woman like her!
Especially LeBron's physical fitness that fascinated her. Compared with Tony and those students at Lakeside High School, they were like babies still holding bottles in their mouths, not worth mentioning at all!
At first, she was attracted to Wade, and she tried him a few times. The guy with big cheeks looked more handsome after all.
But now, LeBron has become her new favorite, and the only one, because this guy is so strong, and his broad chest makes Laura feel like she is hugging a mountain every time.
What made Laura feel even more funny and fresh was that it was the first time for such a guy as strong as an ox to be with her!
After resting for a long time, Laura finally gained some strength. She stood up and sat next to her, drinking her drink contentedly. Then she looked at the strong man next to her lying on the beach chair, looking up at the sky in a daze.
"Hi, my dear, don't think about basketball during this rare holiday." Laura couldn't help but laughed: "Don't worry, I will let you replace Lin Dong. In this season, you are the real man. !”
"The Wizards haven't talked about it yet?" LeBron smiled, which was a response to the woman's attentiveness. His voice always seemed calm, which was the second aspect that Laura appreciated.
This guy in his early 20s is obviously the same age as himself, but he has a maturity that is different from his peers.
As Ballmer's daughter, she has seen a lot of her father's calmness and wisdom, as well as his majesty as a superior. Her admiration since childhood has been deeply ingrained in her bones and cannot be changed at all.
Although she is now more obsessed with physical enjoyment because of her youth, deep down, the attraction of mature men to her has never faded even a little bit.
Even next to the spring scenery of the pool, facing this stunning beauty like himself, this guy can still calmly think about his own future... I really love this kind of brave man who can go to court and get out of bed. .
"Paulin doesn't want to let go. He wants to trade Tracy McGrady for Ray Allen... But how can I let that big-mouthed idiot take your place?" Laura smiled and said: "Maybe I have to give away something extra. , But don’t worry, I’m ready, O’Neal can’t run away.”
LeBron did not respond to her words immediately. All he was recalling in his mind were the scenes of the Western Conference Finals between the SuperSonics and the Lakers.
Although it is a 4:0 that seems to have no suspense, there are too many things that real masters can see from it.
Lin Dong is so strong... That kind of return to nature is so strong that LeBron even feels desperate.
Over the past year, he has been thinking about becoming stronger and transcending all the time. He has paid a lot for this and has indeed achieved a lot.
At 207 centimeters and 118 kilograms in weight, he can still maintain his former athletic ability and speed. Only genius knows what he paid for it.
I have been practicing my basic skills to the point where I am somewhat obsessed with it, and my level has improved greatly.
During the regular season, although my shooting technique had some changes due to weight gain and my shooting percentage fluctuated, I have now fully adapted to it...
Frankly speaking, in the four years since returning from losing in the World Championships until now, LeBron feels that his life is nothing but training, and nothing but basketball.
He gave up everything for it.
Not only does it include all the money he earned after entering the NBA, but it also includes the fact that during his four-year adolescence, he didn't even fall in love once!
He gave up all the desires of a teenager and focused all his energy on basketball. He thought he had created the strongest monster, but when he saw Lin Dong in the Western Conference Finals...
When he saw that guy using a calm attitude to get everything he wanted on the court, easily controlling the outcome of the entire game on his own, LeBron knew that no matter how hard he practiced in his life, he would never be able to win again. A chance to surpass Lin Dong one-on-one on the court.
If you say you are a monster, a monster like Jordan, then that Asian is the ancestor of the monster!
But now...there's another chance!
With his relationship with Lola, he knows many things within the league now, including Stern having private conversations with most team owners except the SuperSonics, hoping to form a super team to stop Lin Dong and defend American basketball. A matter of pride in the Holy Land.
In fact, the league was originally most optimistic about the Wizards and Lakers.
Needless to say, the Lakers. Although the combination of Kobe and Yao Ming failed in the Western Conference Finals, everyone could see that it was because the Lakers lacked an excellent point guard so that the advantages of Kobe and Yao Ming could not be fully realized. With the release and performance of Odom, the Lakers will surely become the SuperSonics' biggest opponent as long as they strengthen the point guard line next season and the more skillful cooperation of Yao Ming and Kobe Bryant.
As for the Wizards, after all, they have O'Neal, who was once known as the league's number one player. Although O'Neal's record is somewhat inferior to Yao Ming and Duncan, he was still the only super center that the Sonics could not restrict on the court last season.
Coupled with McGrady's super scoring ability, it is obviously the most convenient to use this as the cornerstone to build a super team.
Unfortunately, I heard that Wizards owner Pauline was reluctant to spend money or pay too much luxury tax. He tried to get Stern to break precedent for their team and introduce some invisible rules to let the Wizards pick up a few superstars for nothing.
To put it bluntly, they want the benefits but are reluctant to invest.
Naturally, Stern couldn't agree, so the advantage fell on the Cavaliers.
Because Laura is willing to spend money! Stern has communicated with Lola privately. He will give the Cavaliers the greatest help in forming this super team within the rules, such as helping them matchmaking, and using a restraining order to restrict Wade from jumping out of the 3+1 contract. such as.
It was Stern who personally put pressure on the Wizards to ask Paulin to give up O'Neal. Although there were some obstacles, LeBron believed that Paulin just wanted more money, and Lola would take care of it.
But even so, LeBron still feels it's not enough... As long as he thinks of Lin Dong's performance in the Western Conference Finals, he has no confidence.
"Even with O'Neal, we still lack point guards and defensive 3D players..." LeBron said.
"Kidd is already talking. The Lakers can't compete with us. Their salary space is too small. As for 3D players... don't worry, I have the most suitable candidate. Of course, that may require some external assistance."
3D player? Thanks to the outside trend brought by the Sonics, this is what the league is most in need of right now. As long as they are willing to spend money, let alone the endorsement of the league, Lola can still find a lot of money even if not.
"And it's not just our reinforcement. The Lakers will continue to strengthen next season. Even if they don't get Kidd, Stern will find ways to give them the best point guard. By then, the Lakers will give the SuperSonics in the West With enough impact and consumption, and even off-court consumption, someone will go supersonic..." Laura laughed and told some gossip that LeBron didn't know yet, which is something only businessmen know. : "...Just wait and see, next season, you will be the new king standing at the top of the league!"
