"Sorry, I'm two years later than expected."

After sitting down, Sun Hao took the microphone and said with a smile.

Just this sentence made the reporters on the scene laugh.

Originally, Sun Hao's comeback more than two years ago should be with the Lakers, but he went to the Warriors, so he didn't have the chance to hold a press conference in Los Angeles.

Now more than two years have passed, and he is still back.

And it's not only because of this authentic American humor, but also because of that familiar feeling.

When Sun Hao was still in Los Angeles, he was also famous for his humor.

The first feeling of so many reporters in the audience at this moment is like the official title of the Lakers:

I just came back, but I seemed to have never left.

One sentence is equivalent to saying hello, and then the questioning session is the questioning session.

Butler and the others watched the show, because at the beginning of the questioning session, all the questions were about Sun Hao.

All aspects of the problem.

Why did you choose to return to Los Angeles? What do you think about the current lineup of the Lakers, whether you have the confidence to lead the Lakers to win the championship again, etc.

Sun Hao had basically expected these questions in advance, and he also answered them fluently.

“Like I said on social media, it’s not just Jerry’s last wish, but also because of the promise I made to the fans of Los Angeles.”

"The Lakers are young now but have great potential, just like the Warriors I just went to two years ago."

"I said that I came back to fulfill my promise. Maybe that would be a big challenge, but that's what attracted me."

...

Sun Hao's answers can always make people feel comfortable, satisfied, and rewarding.

The overall atmosphere of the press conference is the same as before, and can be described as harmonious.

But there are always some people or media that are special.

For example, the question he asked after he got up seemed a little sharp.

"Will you regret leaving the Warriors or blame yourself? Because you had the opportunity to lead them to the first dynasty in team history, and even more championships."

As soon as this problem arose, there was a commotion at the scene.

Sun Hao was also a little surprised, but he didn't show any unhappiness.

This question is definitely unavoidable, the only difference is that it is asked at what time and where.

"No, the young people on the Warriors are better than we thought. Without me, they still have a very good chance to attack the dynasty."

Sun Hao's answer was very serious at the beginning.

But the next sentence I said was very naughty.

"Of course, if they can beat the Lakers."

The sentence added later made the press conference laugh again.

This sentence is neither humble nor arrogant, and the key is that as the number one player in the league, Sun Hao can bring great improvements to the Lakers even such a Lakers team.

So this is a humorous sentence, but it is even more a kingly atmosphere.

What echoes this sentence most is that after Sun Hao returned to the Lakers, the Lakers immediately entered the top five in the ESPN strength list, ranking only behind the Warriors, Knicks, Bulls and Grizzlies, and are all higher than the Clippers next door.

You know, the Lakers didn’t even make the playoffs last season!

After the Lakers signed Sun Hao, the core members of the current lineup: Sun Hao, Carter, Knight, Butler, Millsap, and Hibert.

The lower limit of this lineup is actually not low, but because there are many young players, if you want to further improve your strength, you have to make some reinforcements in the free market, especially signing some experienced players back.

However, this will be a very challenging task for Kupchek.

Because there are not many free agents this year, and there were a group of people who were suspended before and went overseas to play football.

Like Deron Williams, he had a "nba" jump out of the terms and came back after the shutdown ended.

But some people like JR Smith, Wilson Chandler and others who went to China, but they couldn't come back at this time because they didn't have this clause.

And although there are not many people playing basketball at the Lakers now, Sun Hao is 35% of the "super top newcomer", Carter is the last year of maximum salary, and Millsap is not a maximum salary, but an annual salary of about tens of millions.

The Lakers' reinforcement space is not as big as they imagined.

But one thing to note is that in a fish tank, there will be a phenomenon of following.

If there are big fish going, there will be many medium-sized or small fish following.

In other words, when Sun Hao is now at the Lakers, many of those few free agents will definitely have ideas to follow.

So the next period will become very interesting.

Let’s first look at the bigger fish in the free market.

In addition to Yi Jianlian, Gasol Jr., Jeff Green and others who have renewed the contract, and Ray Allen, who has executed the contract, the remaining players include:

Warriors' Oden, Landry, Mavericks' Tyson Chandler, Trail Blazers' Battier, Hawks' Jamal Crawford, Nuggets' Avraro (restricted), 76ers' Nene, Sadies Young (restricted), Grizzlies' Jordan Jordan (restricted), Bucks' Reed, Jazz's Kirirenko...

But before these players started swimming, a wave of bombs suddenly came from the free market.
