The defending champion Lakers did not make drastic reforms during the offseason, but signed a major ‘substitution’ at the third position. Ariza joined the Houston Rockets for $33.95 million in five years, and Artest joined the Lakers for $33.95 million in five years.

　　 The gains and losses of this over ‘deal’ are very obvious to the Lakers.

　　Bad aspects: lost youth, future and athletic ability, lost the first expert on the weak side passing line, and weakened the weak side's attack ability.

　　Good aspects: Artest has better passing ability, more game experience, better court temperament, stronger defense ability, he is more suitable than Ariza to play against Celtic Paul Pierce. And most importantly... his passion has curbed the Lakers' habit of loosening up to a certain extent.

　　 So far in the new season, the Lakers have only lost one game, or because Pau Gasol injured his finger during the game and ended up losing only 2 points at the AT&T Center. It can be said that the strength of this season has even surpassed that of last season.

　　Before this game, except for Snoopy, Andrew Bynum claimed to prove his worth in the game, far surpassing the Knicks. Ron Artest also said that he would entertain Snoopy as a Lakers player.

　　Actually, Ron Artest is also considered to be the best candidate to defend Snoopy in the predictions of the major media. They think Artest’s body is strong enough to drag Snoopy into the iron quagmire... Artest may be afraid of speed opponents, but for those players who back-to-the-basket singles and tentative shots, he actually has experience. of.

　　 Even though his strength has declined over the years, he is after all the first outside player in the NBA in the new century to get the best defensive player.

　　 Of course, no one thinks that the Knicks in a state of turmoil can beat the Lakers away.

　　 However, TNT still broadcast the game nationwide. After all, this was the finals of last season.

　　 Regarding TNT's live broadcast schedule, ESPN next door is undoubtedly mocking. They are broadcasting the Celtics against the Cleveland Cavaliers all over the United States. And put out the slogan in advance: Eastern Conference Finals Warm-up!

　　 From the current situation, from the perspective of basketball, ESPN gets a better game resource.

　　 As for TNT, they can only pin their hopes on the fans and gossip fans of Lord Duke. It's a pity that there doesn't seem to be any duke girl claiming to be at Staples Arena tonight.

　　 When the outside world even looked at the game with a ‘boring’ mood, Doug made a decision in the locker room.

　　 He told Randolph clearly: "Zach, I don't think you are at the right pace at all in the last few games. So, tonight you enter the inactive list."

　　 His tone was calm, and at the same time it was inconsistent.

　　 And when he said this, the whole locker room was shocked. Everyone, including Zach Randolph, didn't expect it. He didn't expect Snoopy to stand up and demand his suspension.

　　 Previously, he had always thought that Snoopy was a kind person. Even if he completely ignored his presence on the court, he would not show an angry expression.

　　 But now, he actually asked himself to suspend the game so calmly.

　　 "Are you crazy?" Zach Randolph shouted at Dugge: "Don't you know that I am the team's strongest attacker? Without me, would you have any hope of defeating the Lakers?"

"You are indeed the strongest attacker on the team. But Zach. We don't need you anymore." Snoopy's expression was even sad, but behind the sadness was determination: "I thought we could go hand in hand and create new things together. Era. But, your recent performance has lost control. I have been giving you opportunities, and I have always hoped that you will be back on the right track. However, you have not done so. So, in my future plans, it will not You are there."

　　 "You give me a chance? Humph!"

　　 Zach Randolph sneered, and finally he no longer had any scruples. He rushed over and tried to grab Doug by the collar, but when Snoopy was still one meter away, James Johnson and Wesley Matthews blocked his way.

And Snoopy Marbury has already started the voting channel: "Now all the members of the coaching staff, the members of the team medical team, and the players on the team's roster are required to show their hands to vote, thinking that Zachrandorf's current physical condition is not suitable for continuing to play. Please raise your hands for the game."

　　 His voice just fell.

　　 Du Ge raised his hand.

　　 Afterwards, Zach Randolph finally saw Snoopy's huge influence in the locker room.

　　 The five members of the coaching staff all raised their hands, including Jeff Van Gundy, who he has been trying to please and thinks he has established a good relationship with him.

　　 The four members of the team medical team all raised their hands.

　　 The team's twelve-man roster: Millich, Nate Robinson, Stephen Marbury, Wesley Matthews, James Johnson, Kirk Sinrich... Eddie Curry.

　　 Zach Randolph finally realized that he had completely lost the ability to compete with Snoopy.

　　Everything I have done before is nothing but stupid self-hypnosis. It didn't have any effect at all.

　　 The trend is over!

　　 Zach Randolph sighed.

In his original plan, the final showdown between himself and Snoopy will be earth-shattering, and he will bring the power of thunder to disintegrate Snoopy's influence in the locker room, after all, Snoopy looks so weak~www.mtlnovel .com~ The most important thing is that he was able to lift him up by himself at the beginning, and he was able to get him up, and he could also get rid of him...this is his always-on advantage.

　　 But now.

　　 Snoopy just hit him back to the bottom with a light and fluttering word: Zach, I don't need you anymore.

　　 After he said this, he didn't even need to announce the next thing himself.

　　 Someone helped him fight, someone helped him initiate a vote...More people stood directly behind him.

　　 It turns out that we are no longer the same heavyweight players.

　　 Randolph finally realized this.

　　 But it was too late.

　　 "Snoopy, don't be proud. If you can't win, everything that's happening now will turn around and swallow you." Jeffries suddenly yelled instead of Zach Randolph.

　　 His words made Randolph's gloomy eyes shine brightly: Yes. Once the Knicks lose, all the accusations will fall on Snoopy alone.

　　 Snoopy, you are indeed a high-achieving student who is proficient in calculation. However, you are too impatient, you shouldn't suddenly attack me in a full-scale matchup against the defending champion. This is for me to put it to death and live afterwards.

　　 Hope rekindled in Zach Randolph's heart.

　　 He seemed to see Snoopy being scolded by fans by the media. At that time, you only need to appear in front of the camera as a victim.

　　 is still too young after all!

　　 Randolph's mouth showed a smile.

　　 But he didn't know. At this moment, Snoopy also had a smile on his mouth.
