Chapter 654 Fighting the Knicks

The Knicks sent Marbury, the Lakers sent Kwame Brown, Lamar Odom, Smush Parker, and the Knicks subsidized a little cash.

All the media are exclaiming, the Lakers have gathered the Big Three lineup again, and the championship is expected.

Popovich of the Spurs fired first, and fired directly at the league. He said: "This is a grouping! This is a grouping of superstars! This is hurtful and unfair to a small team like ours. The league should not allow this The deal happened!"

The owner of the Mavericks, Cuban, who has a good record this season, also stood up: "I might as well give Dirk to the Lakers, and make another Big Four."

Sun Colangelo was also very annoyed. Marbury went to New York just as he wanted. Unexpectedly, it was only a month before he returned to the West and went to the Lakers. Isn't this making trouble for the Suns' title defense? He stood up and bombarded him.

In Los Angeles, the Lakers held a grand press conference for Marbury and prepared the No. 3 jersey for him.

"I am very happy to join the Lakers, and I am willing to fight for this team!" Marbury seemed to be in a good mood.

"Warmly welcome the arrival of Stephen Marbury, I am willing to be an off-ball player!" Bryant looked very happy.

Marbury's joining really made him ecstatic.

"Kobe, who is the boss of your Big Three?" a reporter asked.

This question made the scene a little quiet, and everyone was watching how Kobe would answer.

Li Ba's appearance flashed in Kobe's mind, and he immediately said without hesitation: "Of course it is me. I will take all the responsibilities. If there is any problem with the team, I will be the first to bear the responsibility."

"oh!"

The media exclaimed.

This answer is not too bad.

The head coach Phil Jackson next to him was also a little surprised. He glanced at Kobe and felt that Kobe's EQ had risen from 0 to 100 points.

Marbury felt very familiar with this sentence, because Hammer also said similar words, which made him feel about Kobe, suddenly, there was a change.

"Stephen, as the No. 4 pick of the 96 golden generation, do you recognize Kobe as the boss?" A reporter immediately asked.

Hearing the provocative words of the star, Marbury smiled and said, "The hammer is still undrafted."

"Ha ha!"

Kobe and Yao Min laughed.

In Phoenix, Li Ba was interviewed by the media.

Most of the media asked about Marbury being traded.

"Hammer, what do you think about Marbury being traded? Is it for or against?" an ESPN reporter asked.

"I agree." Li Ba said coldly.

"Agree?" The reporter was very surprised.

So did dozens of other journalists.

"Iron Hammer, the Lakers make up the Big Three, which is a huge threat to the Suns. In fact, the media generally believe that the Lakers have surpassed the Suns in strength, especially on the guard line. The Lakers will crush the Suns. Do you really agree? "

the reporter asked.

Li Ba said: "The reason why I agree is because the Knicks are not worthy of Stephen, and that team is not worthy of the main point guard of the championship team."

"oh!"

The Hammers fired at the Knicks? The reporters got excited.

Li Ba continued: "They let the main point guard of a championship team at its peak be the backup tire. I don't want to know if Nash has the qualifications to let Stephen be the backup tire, but I know the Knicks don't have the qualifications. So I think it's good that Steph left the Knicks, he left a bad team."

The media reporters continued to be excited. The Hammer publicly called the Knicks, who currently have the second record in the league, a bad team. That's why they always follow the hammer, because there is material here.

"Hammer, what do you think of the Lakers? Do the Suns still have the confidence to defend their title?" A reporter asked again.

"The Lakers of the Big Three are extremely strong. There is no doubt about it. But we still have strong strength and confidence to defend the title. We will definitely be able to defend the title. Our strength is enough to beat any team." Li Ba replied confidently.

Li Ba's words about the Knicks naturally attracted a wave of hype from the media. His words against the Knicks made the Knicks very passive, and many people stood up to fight back.

The General Manager, Smiling Assassin Isiah Thomas, specially invited a group of reporters to respond to Li Ba, saying:

"He can't be that unscrupulous, the Knicks are one of the oldest teams in the league, he doesn't have the right to say that.

All our transactions are based on the needs of the team.

When Marbury was traded into the team, his position was the second engine.

Facts show that we were wrong, he is not capable of being the second engine, so we chose to trade him.

Hammer is not qualified to dictate this deal, he got one thing wrong, he is just a player, not the Knicks management. "

D'Antoni also accepted an interview with the media: "Marbury does not meet the requirements of the running and bombing tactics. He is too sticky to the ball, does not know how to share the ball, and caused damage to our locker room, so we chose to trade him. I I want to warn some players, this is not an area you can touch, the Knicks are not a team you can make troubles, you can shut up!"

Stoudemire also stood up and said very directly: "He is exactly the same as that bastard. As soon as he came here, he formed gangs and wanted to fight for the boss. He made our locker room a mess, but we are not fools. He's not welcome here, so he gets traded and our locker room calms down, it's that simple."

After these news came out, the reporters found Marbury one after another.

"Stephen, do you have anything to explain to Stoudemire?" a reporter asked.

"Is he the boss of the Knicks?"

Marbury looked disdainful, and said: "He will never even think about wearing a championship ring in his life, because he doesn't know how to be the boss at all."

After Li Ba saw the news, he laughed and said, "It seems that Stephen's experience in the Knicks was very exciting! When will he be mobilized to write a memoir?"

The next night, the Suns beat the Portland Trail Blazers at home, and then rushed to Jinzhou overnight to fight against the Warriors.

The Warriors started the season well, with 12 wins and 6 losses, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

In this back-to-back game, the Suns felt sorry, and eventually lost to the Warriors by accident, reaping the third defeat of the season, with 14 wins and 3 losses. The Suns gave the Knicks the league's first record.

The Knicks also accidentally defeated the Pistons in the latest game, with a record of 15 wins and 3 losses.

On December 8th, the Suns returned to Phoenix. On the 9th, they will host the league's No. 1 Knicks at home.

In this game, because of the battle between the first and second record in the league, the boss battle between Li Ba and Stoudemire, the MVP battle between Li Ba and Nash, the battle between running and bombing and traditional center tactics, and even the joining of Marbury With being traded, many hot spots and focuses have become the focus of the alliance. The heat is unprecedented, and the media is constantly hyping.

Both TNT and CCTV chose to broadcast the game live.

Before the game, the major media speculated on the outcome of the game. Based on the outcome of last season, most of the media chose the Suns.

"Our lineup has been strengthened, we must win!"

On the afternoon of the 8th, Stoudemire, who arrived in Phoenix, said confidently to the media.

"Amare, Marbury was traded, what role did you play in it?" a local reporter asked.

Stoudemire felt that this question was very harsh, he sneered: "You must know, you are asking the wrong person, this is the job of the management."

"Coach D'Antoni, do you still think run and gun is the future of the league?" a FOX reporter asked.

"Of course, I always firmly believe that basketball is a scoring sport, and offense will win everything." D'Antoni said confidently.
