Tonight, the Wind and Rain players were very excited. They had become the home team of Los Angeles. The purple and gold army had disbanded, Shaq went to the Blazers, and the Lakers did not even make it to the playoffs.
Even the ace player of the Lakers, Kobe, hinted more than once that he wanted to come to the Wind and Rain team. Unfortunately, Coach George Karl did not agree. Kobe's personality could easily destroy the atmosphere in the locker room, and Kobe's playing style was not suitable for the team.
Although the team had changed a lot of players, the main players were still completely retained, and the new substitutes were very interesting. They were all players from Hua Xia.
If not for this, they would not have fallen to second place in the Western Conference and let the Mavericks become the champion. It was the same in the Eastern Conference. The Brooklyn Nets did not change their main players, but all their substitutes were Russians. They could only settle for second place, and the Pistons climbed to first place.
However, what surprised Feng Yu was that he remembered in his previous life, the Blazers did not even make it to the playoffs. He did not expect the Blazers to make it to the playoffs again in this life.
But it did not matter. If the Blazers did not even make it to the playoffs, they would lose another opportunity to torture Paul Allen's team.
Feng Yu said to all the players in the locker room, "I want you not only to win this game, but to win big. Everyone must do their best on both offense and defense. After the playoffs, you can follow Coach Karl to Hua Xia. As Hua Xia's training partners, you will definitely be satisfied with your salary. "
Although this year was not the Olympic year, there was a basketball world championship in the summer. Feng Yu also wanted to test the quality of the Hua Xia players that he had trained over the years.
As a champion coach, George Karl was not selected for the American Dream Team, but he was hired by Feng Yu to be the head coach of Hua Xia.
He was also holding back his anger. He wanted to let those who looked down on him see that he didn't get the title of best coach and become a champion coach for nothing. He didn't rely on luck either!
There are a total of eight Chinese players in the LA Wind and Rain Team's roster. One of them is the main player, Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Sun Yue, Space Yi, Batista, Liu Wei, Chen Jianghua, and Zhu Fangyu.
There were even some players who were not on the roster but played in the development league and were training partners for the team.
It's mainly because Wind and Rain's defenders are too strong. Billups, Ginobili, and Arenas are all experts in controlling the pace of the game. Even if Arenas is not a godly player like in Feng Yu's previous life, he had gotten the Best Sixth Player award for two consecutive years, and his accuracy is very high.
Also, Pierce can control the ball. That's why Liu Wei, Chen Jianghua, and the rest do not have many chances to play. But they still get to play every month. After all, Wind and Rain Team can win within three quarters.
The players did not say anything. George Karl took the lead and said, "Boss, don't worry. Although this is the playoffs, the old guys in the Blazers are no match for us. Shaq is old, and Yao Ming is the best center in the league. As for the other pioneers, there's nothing to fear! "
"This year, our team's Pierce, Billups, and Arenas were not selected for the Dream Team. The same goes for the Brooklyn Nets. I think they are deliberately suppressing our two teams. We recreated the east-west rivalry of the league in the 80s, but we made it impossible for the owners of other teams to touch the championship. "
"This year's Dream Team actually chose so many young people. They said that they have drive, but they neglected their experience. If we meet in the World Championship, I have the confidence to lead Hua Xia's team to defeat that American team!"
Feng Yu nodded in satisfaction. "Very good. I'll wait and see how you win!"
The players had not come out yet. Feng Yu walked out first and walked to the visiting team's locker room. He heard Paul Allen's voice coming from inside.
That guy was also cheering for the players, especially Shaq. He even said that if Shaq could lead the team to defeat Wind and Rain and win the championship, he would give Shaq a long-term contract with a high salary next year!
Huh? Shaq did not opt out of the last year of his contract? That means Shaq's salary should be more than 30 million USD this year. He had to pay a lot of luxury tax for the Blazers.
Tsk, tsk. It's a pity they still lose. It's just like how Shaq is no match for Hakeem Olajuwon in the past. Although Yao Ming is not as heavy as in Feng Yu's previous life, he is more agile and has a better shooting range.
Furthermore, the Blazers are the center of the team, and Shaq might get injured.
Feng Yu did not knock and entered the room.
"Who is it?!" Paul Allen is giving his players a lesson, and someone dares to disturb him.
"Hi, Paul. Why are you so angry? Do you need me to introduce you to an old Chinese doctor? He specializes in fire! "
Paul Allen could not understand Feng Yu's Hua Xia humor. He looked at Feng Yu and sneered. "Feng, this is our Blazers' locker room."
Feng Yu shrugged his shoulders. "This is Wind and Rain Arena, and I'm the boss here. What, you don't even welcome an acquaintance to say hello? Let me see. There are so many basketball stars here. No wonder you can enter the playoffs. I heard you are interested in Oden, who will be the No. 1 pick next year. Are you going to replace Shaq? "
Shaq's face changed. No wonder the Blazers did not renew his contract. They want to kick him out immediately!
Paul Allen is furious. "Feng, don't talk nonsense if you don't know anything. We don't have the No. 1 pick. Shaq is our team's trump card, and this will not change! "
"Who knows? I heard signing before exchanging can also get the No. 1 pick. Maybe I remembered wrongly. Oh, you all have so many star players. Are you all going to continue to pay the luxury tax next year? "
The Blazers now are like the New York Knicks in Feng Yu's previous life. All their starting players are worth more than 10 million RMB, and even their reserve players are worth a lot.
Paul Allen wants to win the championship this way, but Feng Yu does not think so. This is the same as the Lakers' F4, and the outcome will still be miserable.
"Feng, you are trying to create conflict between my players. Don't you think these little tricks are beneath you?" Paul Allen roared.
"I am only stating a fact. Paul, you are the one who is feeling guilty."
"Hmph! You have brought in so many of your Hua Xia players from Wind and Rain Arena. You all will lose this year!"
"Lose?" Feng Yu glanced at Paul Allen. "Even your Dream Team cannot do this!"
