Chapter 1385 Bass has no money
What! He actually wants us Lakers fans to cheer for his team? - Lakers owner Jim Buss stood up in the box in shock.
This kind of thing has never happened in the history of NBA playoffs. Even in the regular season, this kind of thing is very rare and almost impossible to happen. In the memory of Jim Buss, it seems that only Michael Jordan has ever let other players
The fans of the team would rather lose than be able to appreciate his perfect performance.
However, that was only the regular season, not the playoffs, not to mention this was the seventh game of the Western Conference leading to the Finals.
Are you going to treat our fans like monkeys? - Jim Buss said angrily.
"Jim, aren't you ready to deal with it?" Jenny Bass looked at her brother jokingly.
"No need! I don't believe these fans would betray their team for just a hamburger and beer." Jim Buss said disdainfully.
Los Angeles Lakers fans have been cultivated by the Buss family for decades. They have witnessed too many glorious moments of the Lakers and will not betray the team. Jim Buss firmly believes in this!
"That's true. But to me, this Lin Feng doesn't look like he's joking. Be careful of his tricks!" Jenny Bass said with a playful smile.
"Jenny, you are also the owner of the Lakers. You are actually saying some sarcastic words on the sidelines. What do you mean?" Jim Buss was very unhappy with his sister's words.
"Haha, I said Jim, don't be mean to me. If you have the ability, you can also promise to give out a burger and a glass of beer to the fans! Didn't Lin Feng say that if Jordan scores a goal, he will give away a burger and a glass of beer! Just announce
As long as the Lakers score one point, you will give me a burger and a beer." Jeanie Buss clapped her hands and laughed.
"You're talking nonsense!" Jim Bass glared at him.
If you score a point, you will receive a burger and a glass of beer. You must know that the Staples Arena can accommodate 18,997 people. If you score a point, you will receive a burger and a glass of beer. Isn’t that 18,997 burgers and 18,997 glasses of beer? At the Staples Center in Los Angeles
At the Arena, a hamburger costs at least US$3 and a beer costs at least US$1.30, which adds up to US$4.3. With 18,997 people, that’s not US$81,687.1.
According to the current situation, there are still 6 minutes left. It is not a problem to score another 10 points. Wouldn’t that be 810,000 US dollars? If he scores 20 points, wouldn’t it be 1.6 million US dollars! Thinking of this number, Jim Bass feels dizzy. Although he
He is the owner of the Lakers, but he inherited the Lakers shares from his father. Although the Buss family is rich, their assets are only a few billion dollars. After taking a breath, he threw out 800,000 US dollars, or even 1.6 million US dollars, and he still
There isn't that much money.
"I said, Jim, when you took over the Lakers, didn't you say you could spend any amount of money for the Lakers? Now it only costs you $800,000. Compared to the Lakers' salary of more than $70 million this season,
This little money is nothing more than a drop of money." Jenny Buss smiled.
"Jenny, if you are willing to let the Lakers pay the bill, then I will announce the news immediately." Jim Buss said angrily.
Jenny Buss rolled her eyes.
Putting aside the bickering in the box, the fans and Lakers players were stunned.
"Payton, what do you think this guy wants to do? Does he really think that our fans will be bribed by just burgers and beer?" Malone walked to Payton and asked in a low voice.
"Who knows? According to the language of the game, this guy is a bug. Who knows if he will make these fans turn against him?" Payton said angrily.
This year may be the last time that veteran players like him and Malone will challenge for the championship. Victory was already within easy reach, but the damn person who blocked their dream of a championship for more than ten years appeared again. As soon as he came on the court, he came up with a 3+1.
The atmosphere in the whole place suddenly changed, and it was extremely abnormal.
And now, something even more perverted has come out. He actually wants to make Lakers fans turn against him. This is simply outrageous.
All the Lakers players cursed. But the Rockets players were all happy. If their boss Lin Feng can really make the Lakers fans switch sides, that would be quite wonderful. In this way, they will be playing at home. Although now
There are still 9 points left, but in this case, it is quite easy to tie.
"Hey, Charles, do you think this boss can really make Lakers fans turn against him?" Smith looked at Lin Feng in front of him and muttered in a low voice.
He has seen many daring people and many domineering people, but he has never seen such a domineering person. He actually made Lakers fans turn against him at Staples Arena. This is really NBA boss.
The first person in history.
"How do I know? You also know that this boss always does amazing things. I think this is nothing to him." Buckley was also frightened by Lin Feng's move.
"Haha! Interesting, interesting, so interesting!" There was a burst of laughter from another box.
This person is none other than NBA President David Stern. I'm afraid he is the only one who can laugh out loud at this moment. For him, it doesn't matter who wins, the Houston Rockets or the Los Angeles Lakers, as long as the game is exciting and can attract people
Just the fans. And Lin Feng's move is undoubtedly the most exciting to the fans.
For the fans in front of the TV, in addition to looking forward to how exciting the Western Conference Finals will be in the remaining 6 minutes, they can also look forward to whether the Lakers fans will switch sides. You think about it, how interesting this is. And for the scene
For football fans, the temptation of a glass of beer and a burger is not small.
Interesting, so interesting! - David Stern once again felt that Alexander selling the Houston Rockets to Lin Feng was the right decision for the NBA.
And now, will the Lakers fans at Staples Arena turn against each other just for a burger and a glass of beer?
Obviously impossible. After all, they have been loyal to the Los Angeles Lakers for decades, and there is no way they would turn against each other just for a mere burger and beer. Unfortunately, what they are facing is Lin Feng's bug.
"Dear Lakers fans, I am not asking you to betray the Lakers, but I hope someone can cheer for the great Michael Jordan, who may very well be his last championship. I just hope you can support Michael Jordan, not
I want you to support the Houston Rockets." Lin Feng naturally understood that Los Angeles Lakers fans would not easily switch sides.
"While you continue to cheer for the Lakers crazily, you can give Michael Jordan a little applause and a little cheer. That way you can win a burger and a beer every time. Why not?" Lin Fengyou said.
Shit! What’s the difference between supporting Jordan and supporting the Houston Rockets! - Lakers players secretly despised it in their hearts.
But for Lakers fans, these are completely different concepts. For Jordan, almost no fans don't like him. The greatest player in basketball history, few fans hate him. Especially after seeing him at the age of 42,
When he fights hard on the court and provides wonderful games to the fans, the fans are even more moved and loved.
What's more, supporting Jordan really doesn't mean supporting the Houston Rockets. In addition, NBA playoff tickets are really expensive, very expensive, especially the Los Angeles Lakers playoff tickets, which are even more expensive. Especially this season."
After f4", playoff tickets are 20% more expensive than before, which is a big expense for most fans.
Therefore, if you cheer for Jordan once, you can get a burger and a glass of beer, which is still very attractive to most fans. What's more, they have not betrayed their beloved Lakers.
However, this is still a bit difficult to choose emotionally!
"Are you afraid that the Lakers will lose because you cheer for Jordan? If so, then the Lakers' advance to the Finals will be in vain. A team that will be interfered by off-court factors simply does not deserve to win the championship."
Lin Feng's strong words and rational reasoning.
This is obviously a myth. You must know that if the cheering atmosphere of the fans at the scene is not important, then there will not be so many teams trying their best in the regular season to compete for the home court advantage. The cheering sound of the fans at the scene is
It can completely stimulate players and allow them to perform beyond their level at a certain period of time.
"Hey, are we cheering for Jordan?" a Lakers fan asked his friend next to him in a low voice.
"This, this, let's look at others!" Lakers fans didn't know whether they should cheer for Jordan.
...
The same thoughts filled the entire stadium. Lin Feng's lobbying was a bit torturous. You know, the temptation was too great. After cheering for the team for more than an hour, everyone was already hungry. But I wanted to
Eating burgers and drinking beer costs money. But eating burgers and drinking beer at Staples is a bit uneconomical. It’s a few dollars more expensive than other places. Now there’s free food. Isn’t it tempting?
.
One of the bad traits of human beings is that they are unable to resist free things. People will always go crazy because of the word "free".
"Damn it! No matter what, the battle must be resolved as soon as possible." Phil Jackson was already upset by Jordan's appearance and Lin Feng's unexpected move. He knew very well about the current Lakers.
If you keep winning, the team will be very healthy. But once you lose, I'm afraid the team will fall apart immediately.
Phil Jackson made a gesture to O'Neal and Kobe. This was a gesture for the two of them to cooperate in a critical situation. Whenever this gesture appeared, it meant that the situation on the court was really critical. And after testing,
O'Neal and Kobe have also experienced it personally. If Phil Jackson makes this gesture and the two do not cooperate, there is usually a 90% chance of losing the game.
The two frowned and nodded at each other.
At this time, the game started again, Fisher dribbled the ball. The ball passed half court and passed to O'Neal inside.
With a roar, O'Neal arched his butt. After squeezing Yao Ming away, he was about to dunk. At this time, Rodman, who replaced Boozer, came over and saw the right time to block the shot. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, O'Neal suddenly passed the ball, and
The target turned out to be Kobe, whom no one expected.
You know, in this series, there was almost no direct passing between O'Neal and Kobe. The two never passed the ball directly to each other. Even if they wanted to pass to the other party, they usually let Malone or Malone in the middle.
Payton overstepped. Therefore, the Houston Rockets players did not expect O'Neal to pass the ball to Kobe.
Jordan, who had always been by Kobe's side, was paralyzed by his previous experience. He watched helplessly as Kobe got the ball, then stepped past him, and then stopped and made a fadeaway jumper - score!
"If you can do it, I can do it too!" When Kobe landed, he happened to be standing next to Jordan.
Jordan smiled slightly.
Interesting, this game is even more interesting.
Mayfair Jackson breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. As long as O'Neal and Kobe can cooperate sincerely, there will be no problem.
Tomjanovich has a headache. Facing the Lakers who can cooperate sincerely, there is no solution.
"Lin, we are in trouble now!" Jessica, as a former Lakers fan and now a Houston Rockets fan, is very familiar with the "ok" combination. Seeing this scene, she was also extremely surprised. The last time O'Neal and Kobe were like this
The cooperation was still during the three consecutive championships, and now the cooperation again means that the Lakers will win the championship again this time?
Lin Feng also frowned. As an NBA fan with more than ten years of playing experience, Lin Feng's three favorite teams are the Chicago Bulls, Los Angeles Lakers and Houston Rockets.
For the Chicago Bulls, Lin Feng only watched the 1997-98 season, which was also Jordan's sixth championship. Jordan knocked down Russell and scored the final winning goal. I still feel excited when I think about it. And for the Los Angeles Lakers
During those three consecutive championships, Lin Feng never failed to win. Of course, that was before he was reborn, and he didn't see much after his rebirth. However, he was not familiar enough with the style of the Los Angeles Lakers.
If the cooperation between O'Neal and Kobe is only superficial, the Lakers are just one of the super teams. But if the cooperation between the two is as close as it is now, then the Lakers will be the strongest team in the league. This was the case during the three consecutive championships. But three consecutive championships
Later, with the strong rise of Kobe, the cooperation between the two came to the surface. But now at this critical moment, the two have once again collaborated closely, which is not good.
But there is nothing Lin Feng can do. Now, Lin Feng has temporarily made Jordan ten years younger, and has also incited Lakers fans to turn against Jordan (although the result is not yet known). It can be said that as a boss, Lin Feng has tried his best.
The rest is up to the players themselves.
But fortunately, the Houston Rockets still have Jordan.
"Hey, Kobe, I know you've always wanted to surpass me, what do you think, do you want to challenge me one-on-one in the remaining time?" Jordan called out to Kobe who was about to retreat.
Chapter completed!
