NBA: I'm really not a point guard god

Zhou Yao rarely goes to nightclubs.

Especially after just finishing the game.

This time is an exception.

Although I lost the game just now.

But after all, it’s a focus battle.

To put it bluntly, this is just a regular season game.

Each season, there are 82 such games.

No one can guarantee that they will not lose in a long season.

Even Jordan's best season was not losing 10 games.

If you feel sad every time you lose.

Zhou Yao asked himself, he is not the kind of sentimental person.

And, there is no game tomorrow.

There is no game on the Lakers side, and they are in no rush to leave.

It’s not bad to get together with old friends.

"Do you have to retire?"

"If I remember correctly, you were born in 1977."

"By the time you actually turn 31, the season will be almost over."

"Of course, with your strength, you should still be playing in the playoffs at that time."

Although, around this time last year, Zhou Yao already knew that Tyronn Lue was retiring.

He also asked about it many times.

But he still couldn't understand why Tyronn Lue had the idea of ​​retiring.

And, finish the season.

Tyronn Lue's total salary has just reached 2000 million.

Those with seven or eight deductions will get less than 1000 million.

He is not a big-name star either, and his endorsement contracts are very limited.

Although, Tyronn Lue's playing time has been less than 10 minutes this season.

All statistics are not even comparable to his rookie season.

But as a 31-year-old player.

It shouldn't be difficult to get a contract this summer.

Zhou Yao knew it.

While still in the Bobcats, Tyronn Lue was already working hard to become a coach in the future.

However, at his current age, it is still a bit too early to consider this.

Faced with this topic, Tyronn Lue just smiled and said nothing more.

as a player.

He has no personal achievements worth mentioning.

He didn't even start the team a few times.

But to say that he has any dissatisfaction as a player, it's not that much.

Personal ability only goes so far.

Whether it's with the Lakers, the Wizards, or the Bobcats.

He is not the team's first choice at the point guard position.

Even, most of the time he is not the second choice.

He now has 8 championship rings.

Moreover, the last stop he has set for himself is to play for the Lakers for another season.

Now it is fulfilled.

The Bobcats did not set up any obstacles when leaving, and the Lakers also welcomed his arrival.

Although, in his opinion.

The Lakers' welcome to him was more like welcoming a mascot than a player.

But this also made him feel satisfied.

Than physical talent.

This is his weakness.

But Tyronn Lue will not lose to anyone when he asks himself about his own mind.

He has also continued to enrich his basketball knowledge over the years.

Although he doesn't think he can become the coach of a team immediately after retiring.

However, he still wanted to try to make changes.

And he also got Zhou Yao's promise.

If there is nowhere to go.

The Bobcat door is still open for him.

He could work as a video analyst or assistant coach.

However, he did not expect that Zhou Yao would now also serve as the head coach of the Bobcats.

Moreover, he actually did a good job in this position.

At its peak, the Bobcats were ranked first in the league.

The current performance is not satisfactory.

But it was mainly because the team suffered a wave of injuries.

In this case, there really isn't much the head coach can do.

……

Tyronn Lue wasn’t the only Lakers player who came to the nightclub together.

Josh Smith, the first draft pick of the Bobcats.

The original ranking was still above Jr.

Matt Bonner only really gained attention after joining the Bobcats.

Trevor Ariza, a rookie in the same year as Josh.

In the Bobcats, I got rid of many bad habits.

Now it is also the defensive gate of the Lakers.

And Eddie Griffin.

The rookie class of 2001.

So far, only three people have championship rings in their hands.

Zhou Yao is an under-promised number one pick, and Arenas is an undrafted player.

When the draft results came out.

Who would have thought that these two guys would win the championship in their first year.

And next.

No one has ever won a championship again.

Except Eddie Griffin.

Speaking of which, he was generally favored when he was drafted.

Some people even say that they are all high school rookies.

Griffin is no worse than the No. [-] high school student in the United States.

It’s just that there are so many young talents.

In particular, Griffin had been sinking for a while, completely destroying his worth.

Who would have thought that one day he would turn back.

Not only did he regain his worth, he also won a championship.

The Lakers management is currently looking for him to discuss the next contract.

6 million in 8700 years.

Of course, as Griffin's agent.

Of course Zhou Yao sent someone to negotiate his contract.

However, even Griffin himself does not believe that one day he can have such a big contract.

The rookie class of 2001.

The only rookies whose annual salary is similar to his big contract are Zhou Yao himself and the Grizzlies' core Gasol.

Wouldn't that say.

The Lakers will not care much about Gasol, which is almost equivalent to rejecting the Grizzlies' trade.

It's because they regard themselves as important as Gasol!

"The reason why I am where I am today is all thanks to my boss and boss!"

Maybe a few too many drinks.

Griffin cried like a child.

Everyone also knows that the boss he refers to is Zhou Yao.

If Zhou Yao hadn't signed him and helped him quit drinking, he would never be where he is today.

The boss in Griffin's mouth refers to Kobe.

It was Kobe who helped him successfully quit drinking for the second time.

speak up.

Griffin sank twice and grew up again twice.

Now he is also one of the top power forwards in the league.

But in fact, after going through so many things, Griffin will not turn 5 until May.

Signed a 6-year contract with the Lakers.

As long as he performs stably in the future.

The future is bright for him personally and for the Lakers team.

"The next time we meet will be in more than a month."

Zhou Yao said we would meet again next time, but it turned out to be the next time we fight.

“At that point, our lineup is complete.”

"Next time, we won't be polite!"

Although they were drinking together, it was obvious that the Bobcats players, including Zhou Yao, were unconvinced by the loss this time.

"So are we!"

"It's our turn to be the protagonists!"

Kobe was also not to be outdone.

O'Neal wanted to win the championship before Kobe.

Kobe also doesn't want to be said that he can't win the championship without O'Neal...
