Chapter 505 Going to the Lakers?

The next day, May 1st, Labor Day, the G4 game between the Suns and the Grizzlies started.

"Sweep!"

Before playing, Li Ba's extremely arrogant roar resounded through FedEx Plaza Arena.

"Sweep!"

The generals of the Suns and thousands of Suns fans who followed them roared.

"Hush!!!!!!"

The team was likely to be swept, and the Grizzlies fans booed Lee Ba ​​and the Suns violently.

But no matter how violent the boos are, it can't stop the losing streak caused by the huge gap in strength.

Two hours later, 76:104, the Grizzlies were swept, and the Suns won the first series with a four-game winning streak.

Li Ba played 38 minutes, 5 of 6 shots, 3 of 4 free throws, scored 13 points, 21 rebounds, 7 assists, 6 steals, 5 blocks, 3 turnovers and 3 fouls.

Throughout the series, he made 26 of 28 shots, 8 of 15 free throws, 15 points, 20.5 rebounds, 10.25 assists, 6.5 steals, 5.5 blocks, 1.75 turnovers and 2 fouls.

Compared with the regular season, his scoring has dropped slightly, rebounds and blocks have risen slightly, but steals and assists have soared.

Obviously, the increase in assists can be said to be caused by changes in the main lineup, but the increase in the three defensive statistics shows that he has invested more energy on the defensive end.

This data is extremely terrifying, 4 consecutive games of 5*5, two consecutive triple-doubles, averaging 5*5 per game, and an average of triple-doubles per game.

Even if it was brushed out, these statistics shocked the entire league and the basketball world.

Jordan accepted an interview after the game: "I didn't miss it this time. I watched three games and witnessed the miracle happening with my own eyes. He is indeed too versatile. The Grizzlies have avoided him, but they still can't hide from him. Defensive, that's amazing. I think the media deserves a fair rating in the regular season MVP."

After the game, Colangelo accepted an interview with the media. He said: "This data shows that the contract we gave to the Hammers is the most suitable contract. He is definitely worthy of such a contract. Years are bound to him."

"From now on, I will only speak with data." After the game, Li Ba said to the media.

The next day, all the sports media in the United States put Li Ba on their headlines, and so did a large number of general media.

Superstars, there are a few media, because of the data of this series, they gave Li Ba a new name.

Even a very small number of media who are inclined to Li Ba directly use the word "great".

But the real heat is outside the United States.

Li Ba has already become a world-renowned basketball superstar or supernova because of his super performance in the Olympics, which is bigger and more extensive than his fame and influence in the United States. Now that this data comes out, his influence will directly rise again. soaring.

Countless media around the world have followed the rhythm, super basketball superstar, this is the most common title for Li Ba.

In China, the heat caused by this data has also suppressed his reputation as a color embryo, and it has become positive again. Countless domestic fans who supported him rejoiced as if they were in a grand festival.

The huge popularity caused a large number of retired superstars to come out and build up the popularity.

As the former 5*5 king, the greatest superstar Dream of the Mosaic team said to the media: "I admit that the hammer is more versatile than me. I can't do what he is doing now. Give me a chance, I will There aren't that many great 5*5 stats in the playoffs."

The magician said to the media: "There is no doubt that the Hammer is the most versatile superstar in the history of the league. Such a superstar should appear in a giant team like the Lakers to be worthy of him."

"To become a real super giant, all he needs now is some honor and time." Barkley said.

At noon, the Suns returned to Phoenix.

At the airport, they were warmly welcomed by countless fans, most of whom wore Li Ba's home jersey number 68.

Today is on the 2nd, and the second round will start on May 8th. The Suns' first game is on the 9th, and they won a week's rest time, which is much more favorable than last season.

That night, the G5 battle between the Mosaic team and the Mavericks started.

Dayao called Li Ba again, hoping to get some encouragement from here.

"Dayao, there's no need to struggle. Whether it's the Mavericks or your Mosaic, they will meet us in the second round and be swept away. You should go back to the Bund to go fishing." Li Ba laughed.

"Fuck!"

Dayao was so angry that he hung up the phone again.

More than two hours later, Dayao called again.

"well!"

"Haha, let me just say, don't struggle anymore, it's fishing anyway." Li Ba laughed.

Dayao didn't hang up the phone this time, and said in a dull voice: "We lost 3 rebounds and made 3 more turnovers. Once in and out, we took 13 fewer shots than the Mavericks. What the fuck, we lost. 3 points, our shooting percentage is higher than them."

In this game, in 35 minutes, he made 10 of 13 shots and 10 of 16 free throws. He scored 30 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks, 2 turnovers and 4 fouls. The statistics are still good.

It's a pity that there are some flaws in rebounding and his most stable free throw.

"Dayao, tell your boss to spend money to buy someone. Of your five starters today, except for you and McGrady, none scored in double figures. With such a lineup, you still want to enter the second round? Listen to me, before fishing Let Duffy send a spy to your boss, either to strengthen the lineup, or let you go on the shelf, don't waste time there." Li Ba said.

"Is this okay?" Dayao asked in a puzzled manner.

"He is the boss, you are a worker, and you are two classes. Why can't you figure it out? Don't you know how many times your boss' assets have multiplied by relying on you in the past three years? Just listen to me. "Li Ba said.

Dayao was silent for a while.

"Go to the Lakers. I'll ask Duffy to contact you. You are a good match for Kobe, and if you don't compete with him for the boss, he will definitely welcome you with his hands up." Li Ba said.

"this?"

"Fucking this and that, I'm anxious for you. Look at me, in the second season, I'm going to compete for the championship, and I got a contract worth hundreds of millions. You're still working hard to make it to the second round. Is it worth it? That's it, I'll call Duffy now." Li Ba said.

After speaking, he hung up directly.

Dayao, you have too many worries, why think so much about the team?

"Hey Hammer, what's up?"

The phone was connected quickly, and Bill Duffy's voice sounded, full of enthusiasm.

"Bill, I just talked to Yao on the phone, and I think he needs your help." Li Ba said.

"Tell me." Duffy said immediately.

"I don't think the Mosaic team is worthy of Yao. You can operate his trade. Either force their boss to strengthen the lineup, or simply let him go to other teams, such as the Lakers."

Li Ba is very straightforward.

"The Lakers?"

Duffy perked up.

If Yao went to the Lakers, his worth and influence would definitely skyrocket.

"Hammer, I'll contact Yao immediately." Bill Duffy hung up the phone after speaking.
