The Lakers sounded the horn of the new season's training camp, and in the Lakers club, President Jenny Buss called a meeting of the management team.
In the head coach's office, Jenny Buss held a thick player profile in her hand and said, "Gentlemen, the new season is about to begin. This time we can't be the same as before. We must seek change."
The "Xu Xuan Project" is an important reorganization charter he proposed.
The main content is to build a team around Xu Xuan, clean out the cancer in the locker room, and create a completely different Bai Baihe with Xu Xuan as the center.
In her concept, this will be a youthful, sunny, passionate and vigorous team with a taste of hard work.
The ultimate goal is the championship, no doubt.
Xu Xuan's fresh blood injected a youthful vigor into the old Zijin Dynasty, thus creating a completely different team.
This is the ambition of Jenny Buss!
Many people are wondering how the Lakers became lonely after winning the 2010 championship.
Looking at their history:
In the 2010-11 season, the Lakers retained the main lineup to win the championship, but the outbreak of Andrew Bynum's injury caused the team to slow down.
This season, because of a knee injury, Bynum played only 54 regular season games.
In order for the team to get the highest possible ranking in the regular season, Kobe, Gasol, Odom, Fisher, and Ci Shiping all played 82 games, which to a certain extent, wasted the team. After defeating the Hornets 4-2 in the first round of the playoffs, they were swept by the championship Mavericks in the semifinals.
At that time, the Lakers had exposed their old attitude, Fisher was completely blown by Jason Terry, and Gasol was powerless to face Nowitzki. Many years later proved that since that season, Odom became addicted to drugs, and the fall of the team's best sixth man became one of the reasons why the Lakers were swept away.
In the 2011-12 season, the Lakers sent Odom away, and the addition of Matt Barnes was a drop-in for this loss.
Bryant has only played 56 games this season due to injuries such as tibial tenosynovitis, and the decline in state can be imagined. In addition, this year, Vanessa proposed to divorce Kobe, this off-field factor has a greater impact on Kobe.
In the playoffs, the Lakers, who struggled through the tiebreak to break through the first round, were defeated by the Thunder 4-1. From a tactical point of view, the Lakers are still sticking to the giant basketball route of "Bynum + Gasol", which is very different from the small ball trend that has already appeared in the league.
This defeat is more like being defeated by the times.
In the 2012-13 season, the Lakers sent Bynum away, acquired Howard and introduced Nash.
Reorganizing the Big Four lineup, the Lakers are determined to have a final fight for the championship.
However, Howard was completely lost in life in Los Angeles, and the conflict between him and Kobe became the favorite of the local media. Nash's coming to Los Angeles is more like a pensioner. Injuries have allowed him to play only 50 games.
On April 12, 2013, on the eve of the playoffs, Bryant was reimbursed for the season with a torn Achilles tendon in a game with the Warriors. The Lakers then lost to the Thunder in the first round of the playoffs.
In the 2013-14 season, Howard escaped from Los Angeles during the offseason and went to Houston. Kobe played only 6 games due to injury, Nash only played 10 games due to injury, and Gasol led the team alone to get the Lakers only 25 seasons. Win. Los Angeles missed the playoffs for the first time in 9 years.
In the 2014-15 season, Gasol was gone. The only core player in the Lakers' 2010 championship lineup was Kobe, and Kobe played only 35 games this season. After only 23 wins this season, Los Angeles began a complete reconstruction.
In the 15-16 season, not to mention, the season when Kobe retired, really regarded poor as the core idea.
Looking at it this way, the loneliness of the Lakers is not a day's cold.
The year they won the championship can even be regarded as a blessing.
I also struggled later, but in general, the struggle just dragged my death slower.
Jenny Buss doesn't want to be like his brother Jim Buss.
I'm getting a star that is not too big or small to form a duo, the Big Three, or even the Big Four and Big Five.
no point.
Jenny Buss thinks those are meaningless.
If that were to succeed, the Lakers would not be as bad as they are today.
If you want to get something, you must change!
Change from the inside out!
And Xu Xuan is the center of the storm of all these changes.
Xu Xuan must be present for her plans to succeed.
Jenny Buss was actually a little imaginary in her heart.
And she actually intends to officially launch next year to resolve Jim Buss' regaining the power of the team.
But because of Xu Xuan's relationship, she had to activate it in advance.
If Xu Xuan were not recruited this time, the power she had on her face would instantly collapse, and the overall situation might lose control again.
Xu Xuan is too important!
Important to the point of irreplaceable.
If Xu Xuan was not recruited, it would be useless even if Durant came.
Jenny Buss quickly filtered it in her heart, glanced at the player information on the table with full confidence, then turned on the projector and said: "Gentlemen, let's watch a video first."
Jenny Buss is not a boastful person, she likes to speak with facts.
Soon, a game scene was cast from the projector, a collection of scoring and passing by a black-haired teenager.
This boy is Xu Xuan who has just led the Pacers to the championship.
"It's really art, no matter how many times you see it, you can still be shocked."
"Watching Xu Xuan's game is simply enjoyment. The combination of art and beauty is so comfortable."
"Exaggerated vision, terrifying scoring ability."
Everyone talked about it in an instant, Xu Xuan was not an unknown person, everyone was familiar with him.
"Yes." Jenny Buss was sitting on her desk, her hands wrapped around her chest and exclaimed: "Xu Xuan's technical characteristics are reflected in that as long as he gets the ball, he is almost omnipotent! He can score and pass the ball. You can break through, you can shoot... you can score points in any way he thinks."
"But, can we really get him?" The new general manager Pelinka said while biting his pen. "That's not an easy task."
"Of course it's not easy," Jenny Buss gave her new general manager a blank glance: "However, Kobe has helped us break into the enemy's interior in advance. I just received a call and Xu Xuan has agreed. We can go in the afternoon. Talk to him."
"Xu Xuan agreed?"
"Kobe contributed a lot."
"It seems that even if Kobe retires, he still thinks of us and is moved."
Jenny Buss looked around the circle with satisfaction, slapped everyone's eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Well, let's go down and prepare now. I have prepared the information for you. How will we talk later? , First think about it clearly, we have to fight and we will win with one blow!"
After the meeting ended, after the other high-levels left, Pelinka was shed.
He poured a cup of coffee on his own and asked, "Do you really believe that Xu Xuan can succeed?"
Jenny Buss was sorting out the files, she paused after hearing the words, and was silent for a while, saying; "I don't know, but... I want to trust him."
"why?"
Pelinka asked suspiciously.
Jenny Buss sighed, she turned around and looked at Pelinka and said, "I saw a different trait in him. If before October last year, someone said that the Pacers would win the championship, you believe ?"
"I don't believe it!" Pelinka shook his head and said: "At that time, they were only able to make the second round of the playoffs at most in my expectation. This requires Xu Xuan and Paul George to perform normally."
Pelinka shrugged and said, "After all, their bench is too weak, isn't it?"
"Yes! I don't believe it, the bench is so weak." Jenny Buss smiled, but then said with emotion: "But they did it. They not only made it to the end but also won the championship. I have thought about it. I saw an infectious force in Xu Xuan. He can not only drive himself, but also drive his teammates and fans. He has a way of letting other people surround him and strive towards his goals. charm."
Jenny Buss took a deep breath and looked at Pelinka: "Also, I can only choose to believe him now!"
Just as Pelinkar was thinking about these issues bitterly, Jeanne Bass’s voice came: "I hope that the feat he accomplished in Indiana can be repeated in Los Angeles. This time we are really different. We are bold. We use new players for the reform of the country, what we look forward to is the rise of a new round, not a leak!"
Jenny Buss came all the way to the floor-to-ceiling windows. She looked at the center of the magnificent arena, her eyes frantically with power: "This is a super new star that is hard to find in NBA history! This storm will dominate the league sooner or later. ! And I will take advantage of this storm to completely control the Lakers!"
...
"Damn it! This way the Lakers have too much advantage, isn't this not giving others a chance?"
In the room of a high-end hotel in Los Angeles, a team from the Dallas Mavericks is also discussing about how to abduct Xu Xuan from Los Angeles.
Cuban looked out the window with a bad face, then took a sip before turning his head to look at the old driver and said: "Dirk, you should invite Xu Xuan to train in Dallas at that time. We can also help him contact him. One-stop service for food and shelter."
The old driver gave a wry smile and spread his hands. He didn't know this beforehand.
And, let's say it is early... you should really wipe your neck.
Who was Xu Xuan in the primaries?
Who is the one who traded Xu Xuan away?
I don't have a B number in my heart, right?
But the old driver certainly wouldn't just say it out of the lack of emotional intelligence. He sighed and said: "I guess there is Xu Xuan's own meaning in this, otherwise, even if it is Kobe's invitation, Xu Xuan can not come."
By the way, with Xu Xuan's position, what kind of training do you want, but you must go to Los Angeles?
"If we sign Xu Xuan, maybe we can taste the championship again." Cuban said annoyedly: "As long as he is willing to come, if I can agree to any conditions, all agree."
"If Xu Xuan wants to come, I can assist him." The old driver also said solemnly.
He can give up the position of boss, as long as Xu Xuan is willing to go to Dallas.
"The Lakers have put a lot of effort here. Jim Buss can step aside so quickly and Jeanne Buss can take the stage so quickly. The people on the board definitely contributed to the situation."
"If you can cut Hu, the Lakers will really be a waste. It's a pity that you can't even see Xu Xuan now. What do you think?"
It is risky for stars to test the free market, otherwise it would not be called "testing the waters".
In the end, there are many stars who have lost both human and wealth.
And Xu Xuan... doesn't seem to be worried at all.
This free market has been open for three days, without even showing his face, including his agent.
...
Another high-end hotel not far from this hotel.
The station of the Charlotte Hornets.
The old gangster personally led the team, but it was a pity that he was the same as the Mavericks. Up to now, let alone meet, even Xu Xuan's Mao has not been seen.
They wanted to talk, and were not afraid of Xu Xuan's offer, but they were hanging like this now.
Feeling uncomfortable.
"Find a way, contact Kobe, I want to meet Kobe." The old gangster still has a brain. He thought of contacting Kobe if he could not contact Xu Xuan.
No matter what, let's talk about it first.
"...Hehe, Kobe can't contact either." The president under his hand gave a wry smile.
Nonsense, how could Kobe be contacted by others now.
It's so rough, Xu Xuan belongs to the Lakers!

The league now has 27 teams all sent to Los Angeles~EbookFREE.me~ even the Cavaliers and Warriors have people here.
They are not very eager for Xu Xuan, and Xu Xuan will not join these two teams with a high probability, but...this is lively and beautiful, how exciting.
That night, under the leadership of the new president Jenny Buss, all the executives of the Lakers team appeared outside the apartment where Xu Xuan was renting.
The look is pious, like believers waiting for a pilgrimage.
...Xu Xuan narrowed his mouth, the gestures of this group of people did enough.
From top to bottom, none of the executives left.
After a whole night of negotiations, Carson, who is now coming back from China, represented Xu Xuan and finally reached an agreement with the Lakers on the signing intention.
Overnight... It's not that the Lakers don't want to give money, but that they are struggling and the signing time is too short.
Only two years, too short and too short, not to mention, this second year is still a player option.
In other words, Xu Xuan has played this year and will leave next year if he wants to.
It doesn't matter if the money is given. After all, the Lakers are also rich, not bad. Xu Xuan's four-year maximum salary is okay, but Xu Xuan will not let it. He always adheres to the two-year, 1+1 contract system.
The Lakers had no choice in the end, they were too greedy for Xu Xuan...They had to agree to whatever Xu Xuan proposed.
The next day, the news was officially disclosed.
The alliance fry in an instant!
2015-2016 season championship and FMVP winner, Xu Xuan has officially decided to join the Los Angeles Lakers!
