Chapter 659: Sun Hao suspended

In the last few days of the free market, the Lakers made a final reinforcement and expanded the roster to 15 people.
The list is as follows:
Point guards: Brandon Knight, Jamal Crawford, Isaiah Thomas
Shooting guards: Sun Hao, Jimmy Butler, Reggie Williams
Small front: Carter, Sean Battier, Ryan Gomez
Big front: Paul Millsap, Reggie Evans, Davis Bertans
Centers: Roy Hibbert, Jason Smith, Troy Murphy
The Lakers still have a better understanding of Sun Hao. Although the strength of the reinforcement players is not too strong, they all have their own characteristics.
Especially like Murphy and Williams, they are used to draw space on the court.
Even Jason Smith, who won with a biennial exception, is similar in style to Ibaka, able to pass the ball, pick and roll and have a precise mid-range.
Kupchak's business ability still passed the test.
However, because there are really not many free agents this year, the advantages and disadvantages of these people signed are more obvious.
In the end, whether there is any effect, it is estimated that only after the season is deep, we will know.
Of course, in addition to the players, another one that is very worthy of attention is the choice of the head coach.
Although there is only a short one month from the end of the lockout to the beginning of the season, the time is very tight.
But after Sun Hao decided to return to Los Angeles, the Lakers coach selection work has been put on the table.
When Sun Hao returns, the Lakers' consideration when choosing a coach is naturally Sun Hao.
Then it’s very interesting. At this time, the fans discovered that although Sun Hao changed teams several times for some reasons, there were only two head coaches who coached him in the NBA: Phil Jackson and Sr. Nelson.
Now that Nelson is coaching in the Warriors, it is naturally impossible to come to the Lakers.
The remaining Phil Jackson seems to be the best choice.
Although he and Sun Hao had some misunderstandings about O'Neal before, it has been so long after all.
Moreover, Sun Hao can play the triangle system basically without adapting.
In a lockout/shrunk season where everything is shortened, there is no better choice than this.
The Lakers think so too. They got in touch with Phil Jackson early and then convinced the latter to return.
Phil Jackson is also very interested in this.
Before he left because the Lakers couldn't get up, he felt that coaching was boring.
Now that Sun Hao came back, he had a cornerstone and it was naturally different.
Not to mention the relationship between him and Jenny Buss.
Last time he missed the opportunity to enter management.
But this time, as long as he leads the Lakers to the championship again, and with the help of Jenny Buss, all will be a matter of course.
But the only problem now is the will left by the old Buss.
If it is said in the will that Jenny will inherit the Lakers, then Phil Jackson will be nailed to the motherboard.
But if it was Jim Buss in the will, it would be difficult to tell.
After all, today is different. In the past two years, Jenny and Jim are in the same situation. Once Jenny loses power, Phil Jackson, as his boyfriend, will naturally not have a good life in the Lakers.
So that will played a decisive role.
Based on this, in addition to Phil Jackson, the Lakers also went to find a spare tire.
This spare tire naturally has a lot to do with Sun Hao.
"Silver Fox" Harris.
There are only two NBA head coaches who have coached Sun Hao, but there is a third person who has coached Sun Hao.
This person is Harris.
Harris is not only Sun Hao's head coach in the national team, although he has resigned after coaching in 2008.
And when Sun Hao first entered the league, he coached him in the summer league.
So purely in terms of relationship, he was not lost to Phil Jackson at all.
Of course, in terms of ability, Harris's resume in the NBA is quite average, and naturally he can't compare with Phil Jackson.
So he can only be regarded as a "spare tire."
As for whether it is the "real" or "spare tire" in the end, the high probability depends on how old Buss's will was written.
Everything has to wait.
Come back to the season again.
In the shrinking season, there is no time to open training camps and training for the teams, and the training camps for each team basically started at the same time when the free market opened.
Sun Hao also joined the team training camp after attending the press conference.
This is also the biggest impact of the lockout season, that is, everything seems extraordinarily compact.
Even media like ESPN is very compact.
Before the free market is completely over, ESPN has made this year's power list.
In this list, the Knicks dominate.
The comments given by ESPN are similar to the previous analysis. They came to this position, in addition to their own running-in and lineup reinforcement, more because of the weakening of their biggest opponent, the Warriors.
To use an unsuitable analogy, the Knicks are possessed by Sima Yi. You are not capable of playing, but you are capable of living for a long time.
The Warriors followed closely behind.
The lean camel is bigger than the horse. Although Sun Hao is gone, Durant is still there, and the fifth dead is still there.
With these, the Warriors still have a great chance of completing the dynasty.
Another thing worth paying attention to is Curry.
Everyone can see that Curry is talented in shooting. Sun Hao used to "press" him. Now that the cloud has been removed, what level he can play is also a topic of great concern to fans.
And this can also be said to be the key to determining whether the Warriors can complete the defense.
The top two rankings also show that in the eyes of ESPN, the new season is still the pattern of Niyong's hegemony.
The third to sixth rankings are the Clippers, Grizzlies, Bulls and Lone Rangers.
The Lakers rank seventh in this list.
ESPN’s comment is: Sun Hao’s addition is undoubtedly the biggest reinforcement for the Lakers, but the Lakers’ reinforcement is only Sun Hao. Carter is not as old as he was in the past, Crawford, Pakistan Thiel and others are not the kind of players who can make a qualitative change to the team. The Lakers will become a stable playoff team, but it is obviously not enough to compete for the championship.
This comment given by ESPN is fairly objective.
And this lengthy sentence can also be reduced to: Sun Hao raised the lower limit of the Lakers, but the upper limit of the Lakers is not enough.
But it is the lower limit of this seventh, which reflects Sun Hao's personal ability.
Of course, the meaning of ranking is to give the fans saliva.
Some people think it is high, and naturally some people think it is low, so that there is a topical degree.
And this time the time is tight. Not long after the fans' saliva, the door to the new season is about to open.
It wasn't until this time that Old Buss's will was considered public.
After the announcement of this will, it caused a great uproar.
Because this will is not a "determined fact", but a "conditional assumption".
Old Buss wrote in his will that if Sun Hao did not return to the Lakers, then the Lakers would be inherited by Jenny Buss.
Once Sun Hao chooses to return to the Lakers, then the person who inherits the team will be Jim Buss.
So at this time, it is completely understandable why the old Bass would require the will to be opened before the start of the season.
Because only then can it be determined whether Sun Hao has really returned.
Sun Hao was also shocked when he saw this.
Because it is equivalent to saying that he decided the successor of the Lakers!
Although recalling the conversation between him and old Buss, this seemed reasonable.
Because only this arrangement can satisfy the old Buss’ own wishes and minimize the instability of the Lakers.
Even if Sun Hao comes back, then Jim Buss, who got the team because of Sun Hao, will be grateful to Sun Hao better than before.
It can only be said that this is probably the "old fox" level, and the real arrangement is for the rest.
Jenny Buss was disappointed when she saw this result.
After all, after the death of the old Buss, she was responsible for presiding and maintaining the team.
In the end, he was completely empty.
However, the NBA is still a business league, and this kind of competition for children is too common among the rich.
Although unwilling, Jenny still respected her father's decision (disrespect is useless) and gave the management of the team to Jim Buss.
At the same time, this also means that Phil Jackson's plan to return to the Lakers has been ruined.
Because of the tight schedule, the Lakers finally announced the ownership of the head coach two days before the start of the season.
"Silver Fox" Harris will be the new head coach of the Lakers.
Finally, the spare tire is on top!
Because of the rush of time, Harris met with the fans only through a simple press conference.
Even before he had time to practice with the team for a few days, he had to lead the team to play the opener.
This is the biggest epitome of the shrinking season.
Fortunately, as mentioned earlier, Harris and Sun Hao have been working together for a long time, and there shouldn't be much running-in between them.
As for the rest of the team, like many other teams, in a special season, they can only practice on behalf of the game.
The Lakers' opponent in the first game was the Warriors.
This is naturally not a coincidence, it is obviously an intentional arrangement of the alliance.
Because this schedule was determined after Sun Hao confirmed his return to Los Angeles.
Because this wave of openers is just in time for Christmas, isn't this one full of topics and attention for the new season?
In the shrinking season, what the league wants to do most is to retrieve the popularity lost due to the suspension in the shortest possible time.
This is the best way right now.
And jokingly said that this arrangement would allow Sun Hao to pick up the championship ring from last season, which would kill two birds with one stone.
But this arrangement is definitely not friendly to the Lakers.
Because as far as the current strength of the two teams is concerned, the strength of the Lakers is obviously inferior to that of the Warriors. This is a supporting role.
On the plane to Oakland, the atmosphere of the Lakers looked a little dull.
When Sun Hao was still playing for the Mavericks, there were people like Eisley in the team, and the team atmosphere was not bad.
After arriving at the Lakers, the "boss" of the atmosphere mediation team directly became "big shark" O'Neill, not to mention the atmosphere.
Then came the Warriors. Although that role has disappeared, the atmosphere is not a problem because most of the team members are young players who grew up together and are familiar with and trust each other.
But for the Lakers now, not only does it have no such role, but most of the team are newcomers.
Originally, the NBA is a professional league, even if there are more new players, a training camp is almost the same.
But this is another shrinking season. It's no exaggeration to say that the Lakers are just like they were just formed, like a mess.
Sun Hao was training in the system, and felt that the reality atmosphere was a little dull. After cutting back, he patted Millsap who was sitting beside him and motioned him to take off his bag.
Speaking of which, the Lakers are quite different from a few years ago, but that's not all.
Take Millsap, for example. Although he is now a star, he used to be his younger brother, and now he is still his younger brother.
Millsap took off the bag, Sun Hao took out two playing cards from it, and then got up to greet the players to play Texas Hold'em.
Texas Hold'em still has a certain degree of spread among NBA players.
And because Sun Hao greeted him, even if the players didn't want to play or didn't want to play, they would come to join in the fun and add a crowd of onlookers.
After a while, the shouts and cheers of the team members began to sound on the plane.
The happiness between men is actually very simple. If you have wine and have women, or bet, strangers also become friends.
This wave of Sun Hao is also this kind of humanity and sophistication.
Facts have also proved that this method is very effective.
And Sun Hao is also good at playing. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
He has played in Dallas for a few years, and the skills of Texas Hold'em are naturally not bad.
But playing against new teammates, he always loses, and his teammates are very happy when they win.
In the eyes of this group of new teammates, Sun Hao already has the same label as Jordan, and he already has the existence of "every gamble must be lost".
Then, after such a wave of operations, the team members got off the plane and chatted with each other, and the atmosphere was not much better than before.
Head coach Harris was also smiling when he saw this.
He felt that the Lakers played the Warriors in this opener.
Of course, if he didn't receive that news the next day.
On the day of the game, the Lakers actively prepared for the game.
The team members have more contact with each other, and the tacit understanding has improved a lot.
Everything is moving in a good direction.
But when he was training, Harris was called out by Kupchak.
Then it was Sun Hao who was called out.
They got a league penalty.
The targets of this punishment are the Lakers management and Sun Hao!
The Lakers management was fined a huge amount, while Sun Hao was suspended for five games.
And this penalty will be implemented at the beginning of the season.
This also means that Sun Hao will not be able to play in the opening match!
Is this what the Warriors did in order to win the opener?
of course not!
Just like the previous performance, the Warriors management is more grateful to Sun Hao, it is impossible to do this kind of thing.
Sun Hao and the Lakers were punished because they had
violated
contacts during the lockout.
The fundamental reason why this matter will be determined is the old Bass’s will.
In a sense, that is the most direct recruitment letter.
