NBA: The start beat Kobe Bryant in his old age

Chapter 9 This is simply a 2m Iverson!

"Hey! Lin, have you really thought about it? A 2-year 1600 million contract is already a good mid-level contract! It can make you a multi-millionaire, and the team will also pay a huge luxury tax for it."

The white-headed old man Kupchak poured a cup of coffee for Lin Tian himself, and said seriously, "Although you saved the team in the last game, after all, it was only one game where you played well. Can you guarantee that you can score 40 points in every game?"

Last night's Christmas game, Kupchak and Lakers owner Jim Buss were also on the scene.

They witnessed Lin Tian's performance and knew that this young man had a promising future.

And after Lin Tian scored 42 points in a fit of anger, other teams were already ready to move towards Lin Tian.

What made Kupchak and Jim Buss a headache was that the major sports newspapers on the scene published news that many teams were interested in signing Lin Tian.

It even includes the Cavaliers, who are aiming for the championship this season.

The text message Kupchak sent to Lin Tian last night didn't have much effect, so under the signal of Jim Bass, he came to Charlotte with the team in person.

The purpose of his coming today is to finalize the contract as soon as possible, and to keep an eye on Lin Tian.

After all, even if Lin Tian performed badly tonight, with his performance in the last game, many teams in the league would offer him an olive branch.

"I'm not in the mood to think about other things right now. Let's talk after today's game." Lin Tian smiled.

"After tonight's game, the 10-day short contract will expire." Kupchak said, "Are you sure?"

Although Lin Tian came to the Lakers less than 10 days ago, he has played twice before.

According to the rules set by the league, a player who signs a 10-day short contract is only valid for 10 days, or can only play 3 games on behalf of the team. As long as one of these two conditions is triggered, the contract will automatically expire when it expires. At that time, Lin Tian will also become a free agent.

Tonight's game against the Hornets is the third game!After the end, you have to make a decision whether to stay or go.

Lin Tian himself is not in a hurry. The advantage of the 10-day short contract is that the players who sign this contract are very free.

He took a sip of his coffee and stared at Kupchak firmly: "Yes, I'm sure."

Kupchak could only nod his head. For a moment, he even hoped that Lin Tian's performance would be a little worse tonight.

In that case, when negotiating, the initiative will be slightly tilted to the team's side.

Lin Tian didn't know what Kupchak was thinking. After drinking coffee, he said hello to Kupchak and left.

……

Seven o'clock sharp in the evening, Time Warner Arena.

This is an arena located in the central business district of Charlotte. Perhaps due to the fact that Christmas has just passed, the attendance rate of the arena tonight is not low.

With the whistle of the referee, the starting players of both sides took off their training clothes and walked onto the court.

As early as today's training, Lin Tian was told by Scott that he would start the game.

This is also expected by everyone. It is impossible for his performance in the last game not to let him start.

Moreover, this season, the starting lineup arranged by Scott often changes, only Kobe's starting position remains unchanged.

The starters for the Lakers are: Louis Williams, Kobe Bryant, Lin Tian, ​​Larry Nance Jr., Hibbert.

The Hornets' starting lineup is: Kemba Walker, Nicolas Batum, Hairston, Marvin Williams and Cody Zeller.

As of now, the Hornets are ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference.

When the match between the two sides started, ESPN's commentator Dazui and Smith also chatted.

"The Celestial Dynasty player Lin Tian of the Lakers was put on the starting lineup tonight! This is the last game of his 10-day contract!"

"Regardless of Lin's performance tonight! The Lakers have already won the lottery."

"We can basically be sure that Lin can continue to stay in the NBA! But his next home may not be the Lakers."

"Yes! Audiences! Hornets owner Michael Jordan personally supervised the game tonight. I don't know if the team's head star Kemba Walker will blow up the Lakers!"

"Oh! The Lakers grabbed the first ball here! Lin used his iconic breakthrough to score the first two points!"

……

On the court, two points were easily scored, and Lin Tian quickly returned to defense.

The Hornets' defense is not as good as the Clippers, he must score high tonight!Work hard for the next contract!
After Kemba Walker came over with the ball, he dribbled for more than ten seconds, and then made a three-pointer against Lu Wei's defense.

The Lakers served the ball, and Lu Wei dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and passed it to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian raised his hand and threw it, banging like iron.

Sure enough, his luck has not always been good.

Zeller grabs the rebound.

Here, when Lin Tian returned to defense, Kobe came to him and said loudly: "Lin! You let go of the shot tonight!"

He also knew that Lin Tian had to score more points tonight, because this was a game of inspection.

Maybe more than 20 other teams are paying attention to Lin Tian's performance.

The other Lakers players also heard Kobe's words and were a little surprised for a while.

Kobe had never said anything like that to a player before.

Here, Kemba Walker attacked with the ball, and when he rushed near the free throw line, he distributed the ball to Zeller inside.

Zeller hit the board against Hibbert's defense, and the Hornets temporarily led 5:2.

The Lakers served the ball and came to the frontcourt. Lu Wei still gave the ball to Lin Tian.

This time Lin Tian didn't throw a three-pointer recklessly, he started his unique skill: swinging his body and dribbling the ball.

When he's dribbling big, he looks a lot like Durant.

After dribbling the ball under his crotch for a while, Lin Tian turned around and easily passed the defender Batum, rushed inside and scored the ball!
The Hornets regained possession of the ball. This time Kemba Walker made a mistake while passing the ball and was intercepted by Kobe!

The moment Kobe touched the ball, Lin Tian on the wing rushed forward quickly.

He's even faster than Kemba Walker!Others can't catch up with him at all!
Kobe made a long pass from the backcourt to the frontcourt.

Walker wanted to jump up and intercept the ball, but his height of 1 meters couldn't reach it.

Lin Tian jumped to catch the ball, went to the basket and forced a slam dunk!
"Oh my god! Lin's speed is too fast! Is this really the speed that a man over 2 meters should have?"

Big Mouth Barkley laughed: "If this wasn't on the court, I would have thought he was a sprinter."

In the next few minutes, Lin Tian went inside again and again!Can score most of the time, even if the ball is not scored, it can also cause damage.

After the Hornets called a timeout, Marvin Williams was asked to defend Lin Tian.

The height of the two is similar, but the speed is very different!His defense against Lin Tian was completely inferior to that of Batum.

When the first quarter ended, the Lakers led 30:26, and Lin Tian had scored 16 points alone!
Espn's commentator exclaimed: "My God! This is simply a 2.05 Iverson!"

"Lin's breakthrough is exactly the same as Allen Iverson!"
