Chapter 1659 Fighting Qi in the Air

Although he didn't mention it by name, fans all over the world know who the challenger in Ji Feng's words is. In this entire league, except for the newly established Heat, who else has the Lakers not defeated? Is it the Knicks? , although they have Stoudemire, it is not enough to be taken seriously by the Lakers.

So it stands to reason that Ji Feng's words are also considered to be a championship declaration directed at the Heat next door.

At the first meeting of the new season, Ji Feng represented the Lakers and showed his determination to the world, while also showing his confidence.

Four consecutive championships, they are definitely not just talking about it!

Although such a declaration seems a bit arrogant to many fans. After all, leaving aside the Green Kai in ancient times, no team has ever been able to achieve four consecutive championships, but they also have to admit that as a team recognized by the world , the strongest dynasty in history, they are indeed qualified to be arrogant.

Besides, is this really arrogant?

Many senior people are not sure. After all, the Lakers have already exceeded people's understanding of the team. Since three years ago, they have taken one step at a time, and every step has gone beyond people's original understanding.

Even the living legend, Lord of the Rings Bill Russell, admitted: "If there is really a team that can achieve more than three consecutive championships, it must be the Lakers."

To be able to have the strongest star who has been the main championship rival in the past few seasons stand up and say such words shows how this Laker makes people feel.

Although the Heat have also formed an unprecedented Big Three and have a group of brave players, not many are optimistic about whether they can beat the Lakers.

Of course, the most important reason for not being optimistic about them is that the Heat are definitely the public enemy of the league. They openly cut their salaries and caused three superstars in their prime to get together. This is definitely the first time in the NBA. They are different from the Lakers. , the Lakers have Ji Feng, which is definitely a gain. To a certain extent, Ji Feng can be regarded as being trained by the Lakers. After all, he played with the Lakers in the first season of his career.

But the Heat are different. They have set a precedent for the league. The so-called brother basketball has made it the norm for superstars to team up in the future. In the foreseeable future, more and more stars will come together for the championship in their peak years. This decision , the impact is far-reaching, far beyond people’s imagination.

Today's Heat should be the biggest villain in the league. In external surveys, less than 10% support the Heat to win the championship. Cleveland fans even support any team that plays against the Heat.

Of course, the lack of optimism from the outside world does not affect the confidence of the Heat. To describe it in one sentence, today's Heat is definitely experiencing unprecedented expansion, from players to coaches to management to ordinary fans.

So at the Heat's first press conference of the new season, they also responded to Ji Feng's remarks from a distance!

Speaking of which, the Heat's first appearance of the new season was definitely beyond previous expectations. Not only was the TV station broadcasting the entire event, but they also built a gorgeous stage themselves. I don't know where they got the lighting and stage design to host the meeting. It became a gorgeous SHOW~!

When the Big Three of James, Wade, and Bosh, wearing Heat jerseys, entered the main stage from the elevator, tens of thousands of fans in the audience burst into fierce cheers.

The three of them couldn't hide the excitement on their faces. Even if they folded their arms and pretended to be cold in order to maintain a stern image, they couldn't hide the slightest smile on their lips. If it hadn't been broadcast, they would probably have laughed out loud. .

And they also fought with Ji Feng in the air after the game.

Wade: "I don't care who's at the top of the mountain, I just care about whose championship it is, and obviously, that's what we're here for, we're going to win it."

James; "I came here just for the championship. The Lakers are very strong, but we are also very strong. We can give them a try."

Bosh: "This is the strongest teammate I have ever seen in my career. We are no worse than any team. According to my idea, we have a chance to hit the best team in history."

The Big Three all said this, and Heat fans became even more inflated.

Green Army? magic? Vulnerable.

Lakers? It’s just so-so, their records are waiting for us to surpass them!

In such an atmosphere, many Heat fans feel that who else will win the new season championship!

Of course, the huge Lakers fans are not easy to mess with. On forums, major websites, and even newspapers, fans of the two teams can be seen yelling at each other in the distance, and celebrities from all walks of life have also left the field to support their home team.

Of course, after a few days, Heat fans became vulnerable. After all, in terms of fans and celebrities, who can compare to the Lakers.

So this scolding war that lasted for nearly a week ended with the Lakers' victory. Heat fans hibernated in despair. They secretly made up their minds to wait for the start of the new season to see who slaps whom in the face!

And amidst the raging war of words, the new season is getting closer and closer.

On October 5th, the Lakers officially started the first game of the preseason.

They went to the away game to face the Timberwolves. In this game, the three main players, Kobe and Gasol, were suspended at the peak of the season. The new aids, Barnes and Blake, led the game. The opponent, the Timberwolves, played together with the main players, Beasley and Milicic. The core of the team is formed inside and outside the second place, plus Love, who has just returned from the World Championships, and rookie Hayward, their lineup looks pretty good.

However, the Timberwolves who want to do something in the new season may be disappointed. Even if the Lakers rested three of their main players, they still couldn't beat them. Artest had 22 points and 8 rebounds, Fisher had 11 points and 4 assists, and Blake had 8 points and 8 assists. , Barnes had 7 points and 5 rebounds, leading the Lakers to a 90-87 victory over the Timberwolves and their first victory of the preseason.

On the 7th, the Lakers arrived in Shanghai to prepare for the China game against the Wizards.

After all these years, the Lakers China Game has taken shape. Stern spent a lot of energy to facilitate the Lakers China Game. They will play back-to-back games with the Wizards, where the UAE is located.

After getting off the plane, Ji Feng, as the host, led the entire Lakers team and the Wizards' Arab League to have a meal together.

The Lakers teammates who ate authentic Chinese food for the first time were impressed by the delicious food. It is said that Ji Feng has trained them to eat Chinese food over the years. As a result, except for the newcomers, there are very few people in the team who can't use chopsticks.

Especially Kobe and Gasol, who have been dining with Ji Feng all year round, so when Kobe skillfully picked up the dumplings on the table with his chopsticks, Barnes, who was autistic next door, was almost cut off by the chopsticks. The chopsticks stuck into my throat...

"It doesn't matter, dad. Sooner or later, work hard with the Lakers. My brother will take care of tonight." Ji Feng patted Barnes on the shoulder proudly. Although Barnes is a proper veteran, in the Lakers, he is Damn it, little brother, in the past half month, Barnes has been 'trained' a lot. This is the corporate culture of the Lakers, and the best people have the final say!

"Yeah, China, awesome!" Barnes nodded and gave a thumbs up using the Chinese he had just learned.

"Hahaha, it's okay, Boss, you're about to leave." Farmar laughed and said from the side. With Barnes, the second-in-command, he won't be alone!
