1998 Tyrone Lu, a small guard from the University of Nebraska, was selected by the Nuggets in the 23rd overall pick in the first round and then traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. In that shrinking season, the first place of the Lakers was Derek Harper, Fisher and other veteran rookies, all of whom were excellent.

The following year, Jackson came to the Lakers and led the young ok team to win the first championship, but it had little to do with Lou. He had a worse season, playing only eight games in the regular season.

But what makes people laugh and cry is that although the Lakers finally won the championship by 4:/kloc-0:, Tyrone Lu became a masterpiece of Iverson's career-48 points in the first game of the finals, especially after Ai hit the winning vote in overtime and crossed his classic background board. It is said that the one that appeared most frequently in various highlights in recent years was probably poor Tarun Lu at that time.

However, both championships were actually won, and Lu, who ended the rookie point guard contract, began his career as a "superstar green leaf".

In the 200 1-02 season, he signed a contract with the Wizards for two years and accompanied the great Michael Jordan to complete his second comeback, averaging 8.2 points and 3.5 assists per game.

In 2003-04, he signed a contract with Magic and became a teammate with scoring champion McGrady. Then, in 2004, he came to Houston with McGrady as a bargaining chip and worked as a teammate with Yao Ming for half a season. In the middle of the 2004-05 season, the Rockets sent him to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for experienced forward jon barry.

But in 2008, the Eagles packed mike bibby and sent him to the Kings, but the 3 1 year-old player was fired without playing a game. Finally, he signed a short-term contract with the Mavericks and worked as Nowitzki's younger brother for a while.

In the 2008-09 season, he went to the Bucks to play as the third point guard for a while, and then he was traded back to Magic in February 2009. That year, Howard, the "peak of Warcraft", took them to the finals and lost to Kobe's Lakers.

Then, at the age of 32, he ended his ten-year nba career, with two championship rings, a total salary of $265,438+$5,000, and a superstar teammate who can play for life.

Jordan, Kobe Bryant, O 'Neal, McGrady, Yao Ming, Howard, Nowitzki, even if Tyrone Lu writes a career autobiography, these superstar teammates alone can support enough sales. If it weren't for Allen Iverson's "classic span" in the 200 1 finals, Tyrone Lu's nba career would be long and mediocre.

Ten years' career is enough to support him as a talented short guard for the rest of his life. After all, this is a real world where the average career of a player is only 4.3 years. Thousands of basketball players in the world are trying to squeeze into the pyramid of this basketball world.

However, he only started for one season, and more often he was the bottom of the bench. He touches the ball even less than he waves towels for the main players on the court.

The world of nba is realistic and cruel. Every day, there are intensive traffic bombardments of top stars on TV and the Internet, but more players can walk in the street without wearing sunglasses, and no one is watching the signatures. Only die-hard members of the team can have names. They have almost no endorsement contracts and no luxury cars. They are afraid of where their next contract will be, because it will affect their lives and the fate of the rest of their lives, and hundreds of competitors are waiting for them.

As the annual trading period approaches, they stare at social media, waiting for brokers or teams to tell him that they have made new supplements and traded to the next city like commodities. They don't pick cities, they don't pick teammates, and they don't complain about the alliance. They just want to stay in the nba. They are the bottom of the NBA pyramid. It is this group of people who have done quite well under the leadership of Lu. Maybe he knew the rules of the league very well when he was a player. He plays hard, is kind and knows how to deal with people.

He spent most of his career with the top superstars in the league, so he deeply realized that superstars are the most precious wealth of the league. He has played for famous coaches such as Jackson, Rivers and Van Gundy. Perhaps he has understood that the ultimate success of a champion coach depends on whether there are superstars and people he likes who are willing to work hard for him. In the dark, even God was building a bridge for his later coaching career.

Tyrone Lu, who just retired in 2009, started his new starting point in the nba. He was invited by former mentor Rivers as the head of Celtic basketball development affairs to assist the coaching staff to participate in team training.

Before the 20 14- 15 season, the Cavaliers, who welcomed LeBron's return, poached him with the highest salary of $6.5 million in four years and assisted David Blatter, who returned to the nba after winning a place in Europe. There are 4 Israeli coaches, 6 Israeli champions, 5 Israeli league champions, Russian Super League coach 1 person, Italian league champion and cup champion 1 person, European league champion 20 14 person, and European league coach 20 14 person. In 2007, he led the Russian national team to win the European Cup and the bronze medal in the 20 12 Olympic Games.

In the season of 20 14- 15, Blatter led the Cavaliers to the finals, but without Love and Owen, he could not resist beating the original Warriors 2-4. 15- 16 season, the tactician and international basketball meritorious coach dismissed the class when the team ranked first in the East with 30 wins. 1 1 negative.

We all know the result later. When the Cavaliers 1:3 fell behind in the finals, the Jedi fought back to avenge the finals the year before last, and by the way, ruined the perfect season of the Warriors' 72nd championship. Because of James's greatness, Tyrone Lu's most dazzling moment in those years was probably the cry when he sat on the coach's bench after winning the championship.

In the next few years, moving forward has been the main theme of the alliance. However, compared with James' omnipotence, Tyrone Lu, as the head coach, was rated as a tactical genius and a representative of holding James' thigh by various "ball kings" because of his excessive dependence on LeBron.

18- 19 When James went to Los Angeles, Director Lu quickly ended his career in the Cavaliers, leaving a disgraceful record except the championship. In the game without James, Tyrone Lu's career record was 1 victory 18 loss.

Until recent years, with the exposure of Tyrone Lu's plot to challenge and inspire James in the 20 16 finals, and Owen's strange behavior in the Celtics and the Nets, many geniuses have changed their views. It is not easy to coach the "Three Knights" to win the championship, to deal with the warriors for many years, and to mix the smartest genius with the strangest killer.
