Chapter 1026 Scott Is Dismissed From Get Out of Class (First Update!)

The eyes of the Lakers fans at the scene were full of despair.

They suddenly understood why those people in New York often heckled the home team.

Because when the home team sucks, you really have that urge.

The Lakers have only been bad for a few years, but the Knicks have been bad most of the time!

The first quarter became a microcosm of this preseason game.

The Pelicans defend a 2-3 zone, and the weakness of Ball and Simmons in not being able to make three-pointers is infinitely magnified.

The talent of others was insufficient, and the Lakers eventually defeated the Pelicans 70-90.

Simmons made 6 of 22 shots and scored a Lakers-high 17 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.

For the Pelicans, Brogdon scored a game-high 23 points and 4 assists. Siakam continued his previous hot form and scored another 16 points and 6 rebounds. Rose had 14 points and 2 assists. Ding Yanyuhang had 5 points and 2 rebounds.

This game also attracted crazy abuse from Lakers fans on social media.

You must know that they use Time Warner to watch the game, and it is pay TV!

"Trash Scott, trash Lakers management, everything sucked after Kobe retired!"

"The current chaotic management of the Lakers makes free agents avoid this place! Once upon a time, this was a paradise for free agents!"

"George might have come before, but the management said George wasn't worth it! Moji, you'd better go back and be your celebrity!"

"My son is almost managing his daughter. Do you think he can manage the Lakers well?"

"This has nothing to do with Moji, right? This is Jenny Bass's decision!"

"But Moji has made no achievements! He chose Simmons, who is cool every day! And a 'historic' guard who can't shoot?"

"Hey, the Lakers championship, this has become an endless joke on social media! We have actually fallen to this point!"

…

After winning the Lakers, the Pelicans also successfully ended the preseason with 4 consecutive victories.

This result was expected, but no one expected this process.

The Pelicans used substitutes and semi-substitutes, and they all won.

This Pelicans team is far better than they thought.

And just after their game against the Lakers, the Lakers officially announced their resignation as head coach Byron Scott.

The team will temporarily have assistant coach Paul Plessy as the interim head coach until a suitable new head coach is found.

When the news came out, fans sparked a new wave of discussion on social media.

But what was unexpected was that Scott, who was resigned, expressed his dissatisfaction with the Lakers management in front of the media.

"I was deceived and betrayed by the management. They didn't give me any rights at all, but they expected me to still perform well during the rebuilding period."

But not long after Scott made these remarks, Jenny Buss posted this status on her personal Twitter.

"He didn't do what our management asked of him. He didn't even do anything."

After Kobe retired and D'Antoni left Houston, the Lakers entered an era of reconstruction, and Scott was selected as the new head coach.

During the reconstruction process, cultivating young people is naturally the first goal.

Simmons's current situation of high performance and low performance is the same as the current chaotic situation of the Lakers.

No one can tell whether Simmons is responsible or Scott, the head coach, is responsible.

Now a preseason game has caused a lot of dissatisfaction among fans, and someone needs to take the blame, and Scott is naturally the most suitable one with the least cost.

However, the end point of the fans' discussion on social media is not this. It is that what they were worried about and discussed before actually happened!

After Kidd, Scott also dismissed get out of class!

Because the league has extended the regular season in the new season, this year's preseason has shrunk compared to previous years, from 7 games to 4 games.

But in these four preseason games, the Pelicans fired the head coaches of both teams!

50% dismissal rate, this data is simply terrifying!

This is just the preseason, and the Big Four have only played one game together. Who knows what it will be like in the regular season when the Big Four put out all their energy!

New York Headquarters.

Xiao Hua frowned.

He's been under a lot of pressure lately.

Since the Pelicans formed the Big Four, the management of each team has expressed their dissatisfaction with him.

Although it is foreseeable that the Pelicans' games will attract much attention, correspondingly, the attention of other teams' games will definitely decrease!

A season with no suspense at all has made the owners of each team restless.

Even new Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta and Warriors owner Joe Lacob have questioned his ability, blaming him for failing to prevent Butler's trade in the first place.

He had trouble saying that Butler's trade seemed normal at the time. Who would have thought that the Pelicans were playing such a big game? !

And he tried to stop it later. It was the Pistons and Jazz who were helping him!

But with his eyes, it was really difficult for him to notice.

It's a done deal, and there's no point in worrying about it anymore.

Before the start of the new season, the only thing he can do now is to minimize the losses of other teams.

"Go talk to the people at ESPN and ask them to put the Cavaliers at the top of the rankings.

Teams such as the Warriors and Rockets should be rated highly, and the Pelicans should try their best to say bad things. "

Xiao Hua spoke to Borgia.

The media is the main channel for fans to receive information, especially big media like ESPN, which is basically the same as the weather forecast in the eyes of ordinary people.

The league often uses the media to influence fans' thoughts.

Now it is impossible to calm down the anger of the team owners. He can only ease it. This is the best way he can think of.

Borgia nodded and went out to do errands.

After he left, Xiao Hua started thinking again.

Just relying on the media to build momentum is certainly not enough.

From a long-term perspective of the season, he still has to find ways to strengthen the Cavaliers and Warriors, and even teams like the Rockets and Mavericks.

The Bucks' preseason experience made him realize how terrifying this Pelican team is. If the Pelicans don't create more opponents, the game will really have no suspense.

It's just that there are basically no players on the free market now, and the trading market is not that easy to operate.

He thought to himself and greeted Tatum again. If George could go to the Thunder, the Thunder would also become a threat to the Pelicans.

Thunder.

He thought about it. After hearing that the Thunder failed to trade George, he targeted Anthony of the Knicks.

He could try to broker the deal.

Anthony was ranked in the top ten in the MVP list last season. He went to the Thunder to form a Big Three, which could also have an impact on the Pelicans.

And it also inspired him that the Warriors, Mavericks, and Rockets still have room for trade.

No matter what, he must create a strong opponent for the Pelicans, otherwise his comeback will be a clown performance, and he will have to get out again after one year.
