My Name is Kobe Bryant

O'Neal will submit a trade request, and the Lakers management already knows it.

Even if O'Neal does not apply for a corner trade, Bass will not renew a player who points at him and shouts: "SHOW ME THE MONEY!" No matter how great the player is.

The Lakers never lack superstars!

Is Old Bass the kind of person who is willing to suffer this?

At the same time, O'Neal also called a number of Lakers teammates to prepare for his future dynasty team!

Of course, the best thing about going to a new team is to bring a group of old teammates and old thugs with you, who can shake up the field and get along more quickly.

"Manu! Let us create a dynasty together!"

"Well, Shaq, the signal here is not good. I'll call you when I get back to the United States."

"But you were still in the United States yesterday!"

"Beep beep!!!"

Ginobili panicked and imitated the sound of a disconnected line, then hung up.

"Derek! I need your passing and defense!"

"What? Shaq, I just fell in love with Lan Lan from The Unicorn, and you want me to leave Los Angeles?"

Xiaoyu looked disdainful. He was a man with more than a dozen VIP cards in Los Angeles. Especially after five championships, the girls in Los Angeles almost let him choose!

Going somewhere new? impossible!

"Robert! You are a free man. Wherever I go, you go! We will still be the strongest starting inside duo in the league."

The 32-year-old Robert Horry's contract with the Lakers expires this year, and he has lost his starting position with the Lakers. O'Neal felt that he was the teammate most likely to follow him.

"Here, Shaq. I'm going to find a team with the highest salary to retire on. If you increase the money, I'll be happy to go."

"Fake!!!" O'Neal was incompetent and furious! Except for Kobe, he made a call to all the Lakers players, but unlike the situation he imagined, no one wanted to be traded with him!

"You like Kobe so much and are so willing to be in Los Angeles?"

"Wait! Next season, I will take revenge!" The petty O'Neal instantly resented all the Lakers players.

West's price for O'Neal was clear.

This year's top three picks + potential stars or All-Stars + top role players + first-round picks.

If O'Neal's contract has many years left, or O'Neal's commitment to renew the contract is obtained, such an asking price is simply terrifyingly low.

The only second-in-command of a divine dynasty in history, the league's No. 1 center, and the youngest top 50 superstar. In addition to MVP and FMVP, O'Neal has won almost every honor.

The big shark is a born winner!

Equip him with a lineup, and any team will have the possibility and opportunity to compete for the championship!

There is no team in the league who would not be excited by such a player!

But there are really not many teams that are really willing to pay big prices.

Why do you want O'Neal's team?

Fight for the championship!

Championship-level teams in this era all have superstar-level players.

O'Neal would not agree to join another team in the first place to help other superstars. It would be better to stay with the Lakers.

O'Neal will not go to a team with tight salary space. He will sign a historically large contract next year!

As a result, a large number of teams were directly PASSed.

Only some young players and rich bosses are under West's consideration.

New York, Celtics, Heat, Nets, and Grizzlies are leading the chase for O'Neal.

The Knicks' offer is Larry Johnson + the 17th pick in the first round + the first round of the following year.

The Celtics' offer is Kemp + the 21st pick in the first round.

West's old acquaintance, the fortune teller, offered Mourning + PJ Brown + the 26th pick in the first round + the second round.

The Nets offer Kenyon Martin + the third pick in this year's first round.

The Grizzlies offered Pau Gasol + this year's 28th pick + the first round of the following year.

The price can't be said to be particularly high, but O'Neal's usage rights are only for one year, plus the big cities O'Neal is willing to go to, that's all.

West didn't have a chip in particular that he liked, so he made a call to Kobe.

"Xiao Ming, eat more over there, pay attention to your health, don't work too hard, and call home more often." Yao's father and Yao's mother shed tears at the airport. Their son was leaving. Although he was heading to the stage of his dreams, The supreme palace of basketball. But the departure of their favorite son still made the two elders burst into tears.

"Dad, Mom" ​​Yao Ming said with a embarrassed face. He is already the strongest player on earth in the CBA, but he is still Xiao Ming in the eyes of his parents.

"I've settled in and will pick you up. Don't I still know which team I will report to?"

This year Yao Ming has already won the CBA Grand Slam.

He won the CBA regular season MVP in 2001, the CBA championship and finals MVP in 2002, and was elected the CBA rebounding and block king three times, and the CBA dunk king twice.

In the 2000-2001 season, he averaged 31.1 points, 19.4 rebounds and 5.5 blocks per game.

In the 2001-2002 season, Yao Ming averaged a career-high 35.4 points (72.1% field goal percentage), 21 rebounds and 4.8 blocks per game.

Players with unsolvable BUG levels!

Yao Ming's dominance in the CBA is almost like Chamberlain's dominance in the NBA!

Body! technology! will!

The 22-year-old Yao Ming is at the pinnacle of the CBA in all aspects!

He is the strongest center in Asia!

Now, he will embark on a journey, step onto the highest stage, and play against those legendary players!

"Hey! Dayao, your PHS is ringing."

Is it Kobe?

Yao Ming answered the phone.

"YAO, let me tell you the truth, there is an opportunity to come to the Lakers, do you want to come?"

"???!!! Come!!!" Yao Ming didn't know that O'Neal was about to leave, but he subconsciously agreed immediately when Kobe invited him.

That's GOAT Kobe!

Invitation from the strongest player in history!

They train together every summer, and his improvement is inseparable from Kobe.

If you want to become stronger! Then become Kobe’s teammate!

This is something recognized by the NBA.

What is Yao Ming's purpose in going to the NBA?

Become a strong man and save Chinese basketball!

So what better choice is there than going to the five-time Lakers and being teammates with Kobe?

"Okay, I'll take care of everything and wait to create glory with you." Kobe hung up the phone.

A born Laker! No solicitation required.

"The Lakers want this year's No. 1 pick?" Stern was surprised.

This summer, Stern went to China in person and promised to the Basketball Association that this year's NBA No. 1 pick would be Yao Ming, the little giant who swept across Asia.

Such a promise made the country's leaders willing to release Yao Ming and allow Yao Ming to leave his motherland and come to the NBA to bring glory to the country.

Of course, 50% of Yao Ming's salary must be handed over to the Basketball Association.

As well as all major competitions, Yao Ming must return to China unconditionally to participate.

After signing this dominant contract, Yao Ming finally came to the NBA, the highest palace of basketball in the world.

"Kobe wants Yao Ming to join."

"Who has the No. 1 pick? Houston?"

"Yes."

"Make this deal happen." Stern pondered for a long time and then said suddenly.

"Understood."

Houston doesn't deserve Yao Ming!

"O'Neal exchanges the No. 1 pick for next year's first round?" Rockets owner Alexander exclaimed.

It’s not that the price is too high!

But the price is too low!

The trading chips offered by other teams to O'Neal are almost all star-centered, but all the Lakers want is two draft picks?

The No. 1 pick is just a rookie!

How many years does it take for a rookie to be successful?

Even Kobe took two years.

This year's NBA center Yao Ming, who is already destined, has no idea how long it will take to grow into a star-level player, let alone a superstar like O'Neal.

Many people even believe that Yao Ming's body cannot adapt to NBA-level confrontation. He will soon suffer injuries during the long season, become depressed and eventually leave the league.

"Will O'Neal commit to renewing his contract?"

"No, he's not committed."

Alexander understands that if the Rockets can get O'Neal to win the MVP or win the championship this season, then the Rockets may still keep O'Neal.

If not, then O'Neal will definitely leave.

bet!

This is a big gamble!

The Rockets currently have top guards like Mobley and Francis.

Signing a few more forward swingmen is not impossible for O'Neal to win the MVP, and it may not be impossible to win the championship!

"I bet!"

Alexander was not particularly optimistic about Yao Ming, he was just an Asian. If the league had not forced Yao Ming to be selected with the No. 1 pick, he would not have chosen him at all.

Asia market?

What is that? The United States is the capitalist world!

"Shocking trade!!! The Los Angeles Lakers traded the top 50 NBA superstar Shaquille O'Neal to the Houston Rockets!"

"OK discord! O'Neal was sold by the team!"

"Kobe and O'Neal fought for the FMVP trophy after the finals!"

"In order to pursue high salary, O'Neal, the Lakers chose to give up."

"The Lakers had the No. 1 pick in their arms, but they lost a legendary superstar! This is the most unwise trade in history!"

"OK, the dynasty has collapsed!!! The NBA has fallen into a state of disunity!"

"The strongest duo in history collapsed! Kobe forced O'Neal away?"

The news of O'Neal leaving the team ignited the summer of 2002!

The influence of the 5-Crown Dynasty in the world has surpassed that Bulls and all teams.

Internet social media has made the Lakers' reputation reach a historical peak, which is enough to rival some of the best teams in football or rugby.

Today's NBA, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is on par with the NFL!

Kobe's influence has surpassed 99% of athletes in the world.

Except for a few rare players such as Ronaldo, Schumacher and others, Kobe is the greatest active athlete in the world!

And O'Neal's status is equally astonishing. He was the king of kings in the era when the inside was king, the last glory of the American NBA center, the strongest second player in history, the league's number one inside player, the youngest top 50 superstar, averaging 36 per game in the finals. +17, beating all opponents in the finals for six consecutive years.

O'Neal's trade value! He is second only to Kobe in the league.

However, in just two first rounds, such a player was sold to Houston?

"Jerry West is such an old fool!"

"Without a superstar as a bargaining chip, why trade O'Neal?"

"Even if O'Neal's contract is about to expire, he should be allowed to finish the year and win another championship instead of giving him away in vain."

"Stupid! The Lakers destroyed their own dynasty! Jerry West is the sinner of this Lakers."

"Congratulations to Houston! You have gained one of the greatest players in history!"

"The rocket is going to the sky!"

"Farke, did I retire too early?" Upon hearing the news of O'Neal leaving the team, Michael Jordan jumped up from the sofa.

"David, do you think I still have a chance?"

Jordan's question made his agent David Farkle a little frightened.

Old man!

If you announce your commitment two months after retiring, the NBA will explode!

Don't talk about Jordan's scum, even Jordan's fans will probably explode!

Isn't this a joke?

And retiring again and again consumes completely the enthusiasm of league fans. Stern would not allow this to happen.

"It's a pity, it's a pity." Jordan shook his head regretfully.

At the same time that the O'Neal trade took place, countless NBA stars who had been suppressed by OK began to have their thoughts come alive.

Jordan retires!

O'Neal was traded to the Rockets!

The most chaotic era in the NBA is coming!

The heroes compete!

Unless the Lakers can use the No. 1 pick to get a superstar, a talent like Kobe, Jordan, or Duncan who joins the league and is a superstar.

Otherwise, the Lakers will have no chance of winning the championship next season!

The God King of the Alliance has stepped down from his throne!

The league is without Jordan and without Kobe Bryant to dominate! This will be your best chance to win the championship!

When the Lakers adjust and get a new group of thugs for Kobe, the horror of being ruled by Kobe will come again!

Many players directly started private contact recruitment!

There are also some players who are thoughtful and want to join the Lakers at this most difficult time for them.

"Opportunity! Here's the chance to beat Kobe!" Seattle's totem, glove glove Gary Payton is no longer the young star who reached the finals. At the age of 34, he seems to have seen the last glimmer of winning the championship!

The current Sonics have long lost their glory. Vin Baker let alcohol and DRUG destroy himself. The core Seattle players who once reached the finals, except for Payton, no longer exist.

"Pence can't bring us honor, so why not just trade him." Orlando, Jason Kidd left the team when his contract expired. The team management directly decided to mess up. Now that a large number of teams are scrambling for chips, this is undoubtedly the best opportunity to trade for Penny.

"I've had enough of this Jazz place." The postman on the Utah plateau looked thoughtfully in the direction of his old teammate Stockton. This year's Jazz will have difficulty even making the playoffs.

"We are the only ones who can end the Lakers." The Celtics' new general manager, Danny Ainge, showed a mysterious smile.

"Kobe, it looks like I will beat you next time." In Philadelphia, Allen Iverson clenched his fists. Without O'Neal, the 76ers would have never lost in the finals against the Lakers the year before last!
