NBA Backer King Chapter 272

   Chapter 272 The era of super center, has it existed?

   On the morning of the 8th, the team did not train. Pharaoh slept until 9 o'clock before getting up. After making breakfast, he walked in the yard to digest and digest food.

   "Old K, can you accept an interview?"

  His villa is not big, some reporters are guarding outside, and they ask loudly through the fence when they see him.

   He walked over and said through the fence: "Hello, have you had breakfast? I have some bread and steaks for you."

   "Thank you, old K, we've already eaten hamburgers and cokes." Several reporters laughed.

   "You ask." Nodding, he said.

   "Old K, which game did you watch last night?" a reporter asked first.

   "I saw it all," he said.

The reporter hurriedly asked again: "So what do you think of the on-court conflict between Jordan and Reggie Miller?"

   He laughed: "The league should add Jordan as a technical offender. He punched Reggie Miller, just as he punched me on the court the year before. I've already said that he should be included in the top ten villains, and he can meet the standard."

   "Haha..." Several reporters laughed.

   "Old K, what do you think of the match between O'Neal and Ewing?" another reporter asked.

   After thinking for a moment, he said, "When O'Neal's tonnage reaches 140 kilograms or more, he is unstoppable in this league except for me.

  Ewing is good, but in front of O'Neal, he has no ability to fight, he can't get in at all, so his efficiency is surprisingly low.

   I'm not surprised by O'Neal and Ewing's performance last night, it's their normal performance. "

   "Old K, can I think that it is normal for Ewing to be defeated by O'Neal on both ends of the offense and defense?" the reporter said in surprise.

   "You're right, that's what I meant," he said.

   The reporter asked: "Then in the next series, do you think the showdown between them will be the same as last night's game?"

   "Almost, maybe O'Neal's performance will not be as strong as the G1 battle, or Ewing will occasionally explode, but he is powerless to change the general trend between O'Neal and O'Neal." He said.

   Another reporter asked: "Old K, do you agree with what Gomez said last night that the league will usher in an era of behemoth centers?"

Pharaoh laughed and said: "Actually, the media has been praising the era of super center over the years, but Ewing's Knicks have been suppressed by the Bulls and Pistons, unable to rush out of the East, while David Robinson's Spurs and the big The mosaic of dreams can't rush to the west either.

  From the era of black and white duo to the era of bad boys, and then to the era of Jordan's trapeze, the three super centers have been suppressed.

  What I want to say is that the super center is definitely not the absolute force that controls the league. Whether their era still exists is a false proposition in itself, isn't it? Since they never ruled the league, I don't even think there was an era for them at all.

   As for the era of the behemoth center, O'Neal and I have to continue to work hard, and our results are far from enough. "

   At noon, these words of his were put on the media by the media, including the sports news of the TV station.

   "Charles, we're going to kill the Spurs and fight him again in the Western Conference Finals." In the dining room of the Mosaic training base, Da Meng stared at the TV and said quite angrily.

  Buckley scratched his bald head in distress, while encouraging: "Come on, Hakim, I believe your strength can beat Old K, you did it last time in the Western Conference Finals."

  Dameng nodded heavily, his heart bursting with great self-confidence.

   But Buckley still couldn't hold back and reminded: "But what about our outside line?"

  Dream for a while, yeah, what about the outside line?

   "Damn Clyde, why did he go to the Suns?" Thinking of this question, he wanted to whip the glider.

   If the glider came from his side, then this year he has absolute confidence to beat the Suns and the old K again, there will be no surprises.

   But now that Glider is in the Suns, it's his turn to have a headache.

"Brother, I talked to Clyde, the Suns want to renew the old K, and they will never give him a big contract. As long as our management gives him a big contract, he will definitely come to us, and we will win the championship next year. The opportunity." Da Meng suddenly became very excited.

   "Will Alexander give it?" Barkley whispered.

  Da Meng was stunned again, suddenly became furious, glared at the management not far away, and shouted: "If I can't get Drexler, I will apply for a transaction."

   Some management members look at me, I look at you, and look at each other, is Da Meng trying to force the palace?

The news quickly reached general manager Steve Patterson and new owner Alexander, giving them headaches.

  Dream still has a one-year contract for next season, $5.31 million. If he can't meet his requirements and really ask for a trade, and Barkley is old, then there is only one way for the team to go, and that is to rebuild.

   And if the big dream runs away after the next season, Mosaic will lose to death, and the pace of reconstruction will be delayed by at least five years.

   And Barkley still has a two-year contract, the Suns take it over, it will be 4.76 million next season, and it will be $4.7 million next season.

The salary of these two people alone will reach 10.07 million US dollars next season. The salary cap this season is 16 million. The salary cap next season should exceed 20 million, but even if it exceeds 20 million, these two people will account for Halfway through, what about the other 13 people?

   The Glider's appetite is definitely not small. Without millions of dollars a year, it is impossible to sign him. It is impossible for the Mosaic team to use a large contract to recruit Glider, unless the stingy Alexander is willing to pay a lot of luxury tax.

   At this time, the team reporter from the Mosaic team ran to Da Meng and asked a few questions.

   "Hakim, old K said there was never a super center era, do you think what he said was right?"

   "Fuck!" Da Meng exclaimed directly.

  The reporter is not surprised. He has followed the Mosaic team all the year round, and he knows the big dream too well. This is an old hooligan who is more hooligan than Jordan.

  Dameng cursed in annoyance: "Old K's stinky boy, didn't he just hold Barkley's thigh to win a championship, what qualifications does he have to talk about this issue?"

   Next to Barkley is a little embarrassed.

In fact, Old K was still a little weak in the regular season, not strong enough on offense, let alone on defense. He was just one of his coolies, but after entering the second half and the playoffs, Old K developed a more powerful offensive ability. There is no one between K's thighs. Old K's performance in the playoffs and finals is no worse than him.

   "So Hakim, do you think there is an era of super centers in the league?" the reporter asked again.

  Da Meng fell silent and did not answer the question immediately.

Since he and Ewing entered the league, and later David Robinson, the media has been calling the era of super center over the years, and he has become accustomed to this kind of name and statement. Now K has come out and thinks that there is no era of super center, This made him very angry and not used to it.

   However, he really couldn't refute it. Old K had a ring in his hand, and he got it as the main center, and he didn't have enough hard honors to make him refute.

"boom!"

   Depressed and annoyed, he punched the dining table, startling the people next to him.

   "Tell that kid, if we make it to the Western Conference Finals this time, he won't even think about getting good fruit to eat. What they did last season, we will do what we do this season."

   He simply stopped eating, stood up abruptly and walked out, leaving a sentence at the same time as his answer.

   Barkley, who was sitting at the table, couldn't help but smile bitterly as he watched the big dream of leaving.

   Big dream is also unlucky. He had such a good chance last season, but he was exhausted by Old K and the others in the Western Finals.

   And this season, the Suns got a glider again, and the strength of Mosaic's lineup paled in comparison.

  Dameng has entered his peak period in the past two years. His physical state can still stay at the end of his peak, but his experience and skills have reached the peak. These two years have been the strongest Dream, but unfortunately he is not lucky.

   "Luck!"

   He couldn't help sighing, feeling that he was really lucky. Fortunately, the Suns won a championship. If they had gone to the Lakers, they would still be empty-handed.

   After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Pharaoh: "Old K, you are really provoking a big dream by denying the era of super center. He wants to do what you did in the last Western Finals."

  Pharaoh was also having lunch at the restaurant at the headquarters. After receiving the text message, he looked at it and laughed.

The situation this year is different from last year. Last year, they only missed the Mosaic team by a little, and they all lost in the tiebreaker. If they meet the Mosaic team again this year, he is confident that they will not reach the tiebreaker, and the big dream is exhausted. Their energy, this idea is absolutely impossible to succeed.

  Spurs, David Robinson was also very angry when he saw Wang Tiejun belittling the era of super center, but he always prided himself on being a social elite of high intellectuals and disdain to pay attention to the illiterate old king, so he did not take the initiative to respond.

   And Ewing was equally angry, but his character was too dull, and he hated reporters the most, so he didn't take the initiative to respond.

   However, the media will not let this topic go. They called them one after another, and they were surrounded by reporters outside the house, so they could only accept interviews.

  David Robinson stood outside the gate of his house and was interviewed by some reporters.

   "David, do you agree with what Old K said about the absence of a super center era?"

   "He doesn't have the qualifications to say such things. As the core of a team, I think his attitude should be more cautious." David Robinson said.

   "So do you think there is an era of super center?" Another reporter asked.

David Robinson looked at these reporters coldly. He actually hated these people in his heart, because it was these media who came up with the idea of ​​the super center era. Now asking this question, it seems that the three of them came up with it. It's too hateful .

   But like the big dream, he doesn't have enough hard honors, not even a championship. How can he rule an era?

He can only explain from another angle: "I think the era of the super center refers to the traditional center-centered play and team building model. Most teams in the league are trying to rely on traditional center-centered lineups. , and this is also the consensus of the media, isn't it?

   So old K's statement is a false proposition. He confuses the two concepts. His understanding ability is limited. I can understand this. After all, he just graduated from elementary school and fights half of the time. "

  New York, Ewing was interviewed by the media in his own home, enduring the disgust in his heart.

   "Patrick, old K said it was normal for you to be beaten by O'Neal, what do you think?" a reporter asked.

Ewing was angry in his heart, but his speech skills were not strong, so he murmured for a long time and said, "Old K's big mouth thought that if he raised O'Neal, he could raise himself. I think he made a mistake, and O'Neal could not do what he said. That way, in the end we Knicks will make it to the Eastern Conference Finals, and the facts will slap him in the face and tell him to keep a low profile."

   "That **** actually said I graduated from elementary school?"

   After learning David Robinson's words from the reporter's mouth, Pharaoh was angry.

   This is an absolute slander, his junior high school diploma and technical secondary school diploma are real, not fake.

   As a scumbag, he hates the most when someone tramples on his education, and he is most annoyed when someone looks down on him because of his education. This kind of person is the most shameless, bastard, and he will do it to the death when he encounters spurs in the future.

"boom!"

  In the hotel room, the postman smashed his mobile phone on the TV screen. Lokia's mobile phone was fine, but the screen was broken.

He just watched all the channels, and what makes him angry is that not to mention other media, even the local media in Phoenix, there is no news about the Jazz, as if the upcoming game has nothing to do with them, the focus of the news It's all focused on the existence of the **** super center era and the old K. As a superstar, he has no topic at all.

   "Don't try to easily pass us to the Western Conference Finals, old K, I'll fight you with my life!"

  's fierce eyes stared at the crack he smashed on the TV screen, and the postman's face showed a thick ruthless look.

   On the afternoon of the 8th, Yu Feihong arrived in Phoenix to cheer for Old K.

   The opponents in the first round are not very strong. The Suns can say that they will enter the second round. She did not ask for leave. She played the Jazz in the second round.

   Anyway, she has made a decision. She didn't take much of the acting class in the past two months. She focused on the concurrent film management class, and the course pressure was not too big.

  Pharaoh was going to train in the afternoon, and arranged for a brother from the martial arts hall to help pick up the plane. After she left her luggage at home, she went to the K martial arts hall for dinner, and then everyone went to the Westside Arena together.

  The game time is 8:30, and at 7:00, the American West Arena is full, and the humming noise is deafening.

   There were some stars from all walks of life, Hollywood, and some sports stars, mainly NBA stars.

   Lakers legend Abdul-Jabbar and Magic Johnson were among them, sitting in the front row chatting.

  The Postman injured Divac on his elbow, causing the Lakers to be eliminated by the Jazz. This former pair of inside and outside line partners came here on purpose to support the Suns and just want to disgust the Jazz.

  Continuously, reporters came to interview them, and they answered questions patiently. Anyway, no matter what the question was, they always carried a little private goods.

   For example, a reporter asked: "Irwin, who do you think has a better chance of reaching the Western Conference Finals, the Suns or the Jazz?"

  Magic Johnson said firmly: "This is not a professional issue. The postman's elbow will definitely not be able to deal with the old K, so the Jazz will also be unable to deal with the Suns. It is certain that the Suns will enter the Western Conference Finals."

   Next to him, Kareem nodded and said, "Yes, if the postman dares to arbitrarily elbow him on Old K, he will be asking for trouble. He might as well find another bathroom to chat with Old K, so as not to lose face."

"Ha ha…"

   Magic Johnson and the Suns fans in the auditorium behind laughed.

   "Karim, do you think the old K's statement that the super center era does not exist is correct?" a reporter asked.

  Jabbar said with a smile: "He means the era of the three super centers, I think this is what he means, Mr. Reporter, do you think it is right?"

   "Well, it should be."

   The reporter was startled, as if it should be like this, so he nodded.

  Jabbar laughed and said: "That's right, when I was in the Lakers, I still had some achievements, and I also had some dominance over that era.

   As for the current three super centers, whether they have an era, this statement is indeed inaccurate.

  How to say, they just represent a way of building a team with a traditional center.

   We can call it the era of super centers, but the three super centers are indeed as old K said. They have not proven themselves with championships, so they cannot be said to have an era and dominate that era. "

Magic Johnson continued: "The luck of the three super centers is very average. In the early stage, there were me and Larry Bird, in the middle stage, there was the Bad Boys. In the later stage, they entered the peak period, but they met Michael Jordan, and now they are at their peak. At that time, the luck was still bad, and the alliance gave birth to two giant beasts, standing in front of them.

   Whether they can prove themselves, they need to grasp it by themselves, defeating the two behemoths, defeating Jordan, and establishing their era is the best way to prove it. "

   At this time, more than a dozen people from Feihong and K Martial Arts Hall came in. Of course, they took Lao Wang's free tickets and walked past the magician.

After seeing Yu Feihong, Magic Johnson suddenly stepped forward and greeted: "Hello, miss, I know you, you are old K's girlfriend, you have watched him and our Lakers game at the Atlantic Culture Arena, I He's a good friend of old K, can you get to know him?"

   "Of course." Yu Feihong stopped and motioned for the others to take their seats first.

   Magic Johnson introduced himself and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Yu Feihong also introduced himself.

   "Miss Yu, I really hope to see Old K appear at the Atlantic Forum Arena as a home player." Magic Johnson said sincerely after the greeting.

   "Yes, only a big team like the Lakers can accommodate a superstar like Old K." Abdul-Jabbar nodded in agreement.

   He glanced back at Wang Tielong and the others, and suddenly asked, "Miss Yu, are they the martial artists of the K martial arts hall?"

   "Yes, they are all brothers of the old K family." Yu Feihong said.

   "When I saw them, I thought of the time when I learned Jeet Kune Do with Brucelee, which is really nostalgic." Kareem said with emotion.

   "K martial arts hall has expanded to the United States with the reputation of old K. It is now the most famous martial arts hall in the United States. Old K has done a really good job." Magic Johnson laughed.

Kareem said with a smile: "I heard that the K martial arts hall has a VIP service. Barkley and the others have purchased the VIP service. Mr. Bass once said that he hoped to join the VIP of the K martial arts hall. He said that he would call the old K. "

   "Really, that's great!"

   Yu Feihong chatted with the two of them a little before leaving. He didn't quite understand what the two of them were talking about with her. Do they want Old K to play in Los Angeles?

   Magic Johnson and Abdul-Jabbar sat down again. In fact, they had another purpose in their trip, trying to find a way to chat with old K.

  Although Jerry West prefers to get O'Neal, O'Neal still has one year of contract in the Magic, and the old K is likely to jump out of the last year of the contract, so what the Lakers have to do now is to prepare for the introduction of the old K.

  West has contacted CAA, but unfortunately, there have been some major problems at the top of CAA recently, some internal chaos, and it also involves the agent of old K, that is, the vice president of CAA, Jemalone, so there is no way to talk about it.

  Although I also contacted Lance Hoxman, the executive agent of old K, but Hoxman has recently been unable to escape because of the matter of Jay Maloney, so he has no time to take care of him.

  So the Lakers had no choice but to send someone directly to Phoenix, trying to open a breakthrough directly from the old K side.
