Chapter 99 Can I Be Rebellious?

"Are you serious just now?"

Dayao asked Li Ba at the entrance to the locker room of the home team.

"Don't say it next year. There are more than four years left before the 2008 Beijing Olympics. I will be stronger than now." Li Ba said with confidence, but he looked at Dayao's legs, shook his head and said, "I hope You can still jump a few times at that time, just don’t hold me back on the field.”

"Do you believe me if I beat you to death?" Dayao raised his fist angrily.

The two broke up at the entrance of the passage and went back to the dressing room.

"Jerry?"

At this time, Frank went to see Colangelo. He was nervous and didn't know what was waiting for him.

"Oh, Frank, you did a great job, you brought a nice little guy to the team."

But it turned out very well, very well, and Colangelo treated him very well.

Then Colangelo told him that Stoudemire had already applied for a trade, and D'Antoni would also submit his resignation letter. The team would train the Hammers best and build a team around him.

Frank was ecstatic.

After he came back, he informed Li Ba of the news, and the latter was equally happy, which meant that his behavior was recognized by the management.

But what is even more gratifying is that his behavior is in line with American thinking, which lets him know that he will understand this circle better. This is very good news for his future integration into the NBA.

Not long after, Li Ba and Dayao appeared at the press conference again.

"Frank, may I ask, has the Suns completed the boss change? Will Amare Stoudemire be traded?"

ESPN reporter asked.

This question made all the media stare wide-eyed.

As the new best rookie last year, Stoudemire still has a good degree of attention.

Dayao felt a little bit emotional. Did the bully who overwhelmed him last year just get squeezed away by the hammer in just a few games?

With Colangelo's endorsement, Frank was full of confidence. After pondering for a while, he collected his thoughts and said: "Actually, we don't have a real boss. Our locker room leader is Penny. Before Amale was just our boss. We are cultivating him as the core of the inside line. However, now we think that the Hammer is more suitable to be the core of the inside line. As for the boss, it depends on the ability of the Hammer. Other players recognize him, he is the boss. If he does not recognize him, he is not. It's easy, isn't it?"

"Hammer, do you think you are?"

Li Ba smiled and said loudly: "It's very simple, you can ask them."

The reporters immediately asked Marbury next to him. The latter glanced at Li Ba, nodded and said, "Hammer is my brother. I believe he is capable enough to lead this team."

"You will obey him?" A reporter asked a very pointed provocative question.

At this time, Li Ba directly took the microphone in front of Marbury and said: "Perhaps your understanding of the boss is biased, or this is a cultural difference. In my opinion, the boss of a team has more It means responsibility, not power. I will respect my brothers, love them, not judge them in front of them. If anyone elbows them, please do it to me first! If anyone wants to target them , then please rush to me first.”

After finishing speaking, he stared fixedly at the reporter who asked the question, waiting for his reaction.

Intimidated by Li Ba's powerful aura, the reporter nodded in embarrassment and didn't ask any more questions.

"Papa..."

Marbury applauded alone, then Frank, and then many people.

"It seems that many people here agree with my understanding of the boss, which is very good." Li Ba laughed.

After the media conference, the Sun team followed Li Ba to Yao Restaurant and had a meal.

Li Ba also invited Frank and the team's general manager Colangelo, and the two also happily went.

But it didn't take long, because they had to rush back to Phoenix overnight, and tomorrow they will play the Pistons back-to-back at home.

Next they have four home games, including the Pistons and Bulls, Magic, and Heat.

The game against the Bulls is on the 18th, and then on the 20th and 22nd against the Magic and the Heat.

Before leaving Houston, he made a phone call to Gao Yuanyuan who had already returned to the hotel.

"Yuanyuan, I'm going back first. I'll leave the car at the airport. I'll leave in someone else's car. When you get to the airport, you drive away. By the way, do you have the key with you?" he said.

"Yes. Tu Li, I'm very proud today, is he really the boss of the sun?" Gao Yuanyuan asked.

"That is, can I let someone else crush me?" Li Ba said triumphantly.

"Well, by the way, you said before that you wanted to fight for the head of your family, when will you honor it?" Gao Yuanyuan teased.

"Haha, that's a joke, a joke, can I be rebellious?" Li Ba smiled awkwardly.

The next day, Li Ba didn't get up until eleven o'clock.

While he sleeps, Suns general manager Colangelo and management, as well as Frank, are busy.

The management of many teams in the league is also busy.

Last year's No. 9 rookie in the first round and the season's best rookie Stoudemire was put on the shelves. Such a high-quality insider immediately attracted a large number of teams.

In fact, after yesterday's game, Colangelo began to receive calls from many team general managers asking about Stoudemire's trading chips.

As the head coach, Frank also participated in the transaction, but he only had the right to make suggestions, not to make decisions.

D'Antoni is also busy. He reached an agreement with Knicks general manager Thomas on the phone overnight to become the head coach of the Knicks.

After that, he made his first proposal, trading Amare Stoudemire.

Li Ba had lunch with Chen Hong at noon, during which the latter told him some news about him.

In a word, yesterday's news that he boarded the Sun boss has caused a sensation in the entire league.

"Actually, it's not just the league. Because of racial discrimination, you are getting a lot of attention in the United States, so what happened yesterday was mentioned by the general media, including what happened between you and Jackson." Chen Hongdao.

He then showed Li Ba several related reports.

"Ninety-five percent of the media is not optimistic about the Suns boss, because you have entered the league too short, and the problem of offensive ability is very serious. And they mentioned the defensive problems of the Suns, thinking that almost no one on the outside is effective. They think this team is not very competitive, especially in the playoffs. At the same time, many media think that the Suns locker room may be in chaos. They don’t agree with your status in the locker room. Influence."

"The problem with Jackson is nothing, because Jackson did not accept an interview. The official statement of the Eagles is in line with your statement. This is basically the case. In fact, some players in the NBA also have off-court appointments, such as Malone and Ronaldo. Deman, it's not a big deal between you and Jackson."

While listening to Chen Hong's talk, Li Ba watched related news.
