Except for the ruler himself, no one wants the alliance to be completely dominated by a single family. The Bulls have won four consecutive championships. Although Garnett and Billups are aging, the most important player, Wang Chong, is still at his peak and can maintain his performance for a long time. The Bulls also have two rising stars in Gasol.

Over time, it's entirely possible that Gasol and another player could completely replace Garnett and Billups, forming a new Big Three for the Bulls alongside Wang Chong.

The Lakers lost three battles to the Bulls, with Kobe Bryant leading the way. The Miami Heat and the New York Knicks also formed their own Big Three to resist the Bulls, but all of them inevitably fell to the Bulls' iron cavalry.

If this continues, it's foreseeable that the Bulls might go on to win five, six, or even seven consecutive championships.

When there's no suspense in winning the championship, the excitement of the game will also diminish, and even the league's ratings and attention will be affected. After all, times have changed, and the current league doesn't need a player like Jordan who relies on his performance alone. He would only hurt the league's ratings.

The Lakers' trade for Paul and Howard will certainly have some impact on the recently concluded collective bargaining agreement.

Superstars from big cities are coming together, which makes it harder for smaller markets to get enough attention from stars and worsens the living environment. This is also not favorable for the balanced development of the league.

However, compared to the second issue, the first one is more important to resolve.

If the Lakers can use this to break the Bulls' championship monopoly, even if it brings some negative effects, the owners of other teams in the league will be willing to tolerate it. At worst, everyone will reach a consensus in the future to avoid similar incidents from happening again.

The result of this compromise was that the Lakers took advantage of a major mistake and formed perhaps the most luxurious Big Three combination in NBA history.

Compared to the Heat's Big Three, Wade and James can compensate for Paul and Kobe. Although the impact of the James-Wade combination is stronger than Kobe's, considering the differences in their playing styles, the latter is obviously more compatible.

When these two pairs are compared, the difference between Bosh and Howard is like an adult intimidating a child.

Chris Bosh is indeed a very good player and fully qualified to be called a giant, but who is Warcraft Howard? The current number one big man in the league, having won the DPOY (Defensive Player of the Year) for three consecutive years and being selected for the first team defense for three years. They say that only James can be replaced.

Let's not mention Bosh. Even with Bosh and the current Wade, their value is probably slightly less than Howard's.

Moreover, the Lakers' Big Three are surrounded by Ron Artest, who also won the Defensive Player of the Year award. In comparison to the Heat's Big Three, who lack useful players, the Lakers' setup is clearly much stronger.

So the question is: do the Lakers, who have formed the most luxurious Big Three, stand a chance of defeating the Bulls?

Yes, while everyone was surprised by the Lakers' formation of a Super Three, Wang Chong remained calm.

It's true that the combination of Kobe, Paul, and Howard is somewhat exaggerated… but so what?

Such things are not without precedent.

In the 2012-13 original season, the Lakers formed their own F4 team with Nash, Kobe, Gasol, and Howard. At that time, the league was also shocked and felt that the NBA might as well hand over the championship.

But what happened with that result? The Lakers won fewer games in the regular season and lost more, having to rely on Kobe to turn things around and barely made the playoffs. Kobe got injured, tearing his Achilles tendon, and the Lakers were swept by the Spurs in the first round.

Some people would argue that the Lakers lost because Nash was aging and Howard was injured. The lineup looked luxurious but had limited actual combat effectiveness.

But what Wang Chong wants to highlight is not the strength of the lineup, but the adjustment of the players.

Who is Kobe? After working as Shaquille O'Neal's younger brother for years, he became dissatisfied with his status and dared to compete with his elder brother for the role of the team leader.

It's said that Gasol is Kobe's most suitable second option. There's really nothing wrong with this. Gasol has a peaceful personality and never contests Kobe's will. He can be easily controlled, like a virtuous wife.

But Howard and Paul are not Gasol. They were once the stars of their own teams and enjoyed the same treatment as Kobe. Why should they become Kobe's younger brothers once they join the Lakers?

Howard stayed with the Lakers for a year. Kobe harassed him daily, insisting that he teach Howard how to win a championship.

Therefore, it's basically a given that Howard and Kobe are incompatible. Even if the world has changed a lot due to Wang Chong's influence, the personalities and temperaments of these players won't change, especially Kobe, who has an extremely paranoid personality. This is especially true for players.

As for Paul, this little guy may look innocent with his baby face, but he is actually a ruthless character with a very strong personality. But unlike Howard, Paul doesn't let issues with Kobe escalate to open conflict. The contradictions and conflicts would not be exposed publicly, and there may be several hidden tricks behind the scenes. It's even possible that Paul and Howard might team up to suppress Kobe.

Howard's own offensive skills are unique, heavily relying on passers like Paul to set him up. Their relationship on the court is definitely affected, but Kobe would not be able to pass to Howard as effectively.

Of course, these are just Wang Chong's irresponsible speculations. It's also possible that all three get along well and develop good chemistry. Howard might be willing to work under Kobe, and Paul could play a role similar to what Fisher used to do, dribbling up the court and handing the ball to Kobe for a simple shot.

In that case, the Lakers could also be very strong...

Anyway, at least Wang Chong feels that the Heat's Big Three started to delegate power to James in the second year, making James the main core, and with him and Bosh helping in the background, the Heat truly became a championship-level team.

If the Lakers' Big Three fail to solve this issue, they definitely won't be a threat.

Therefore, when a journalist interviewed Wang Chong and asked for his opinion about the Lakers' Big Three, Wang Chong honestly shared his thoughts.

"I think that in the new season, the Miami Heat will be our most powerful opponent on the road to defending our title. We must do everything possible against them."

The journalist was stunned. That wasn't the question he had just asked. What he had just asked was Wang Chong's opinion about the Lakers' Big Three.

But he quickly reacted, his face showing surprise.

Reports about the Lakers' Big Three had flooded everywhere, along with all kinds of opinions.

For example, Spurs head coach Popovich commented, "Another bandit team by the Los Angeles Lakers."

As for the Lakers-Hornets trade, Popovich and the Spurs voted against it. However, most team owners accepted the deal, and their opposition alone wouldn't help.

The Spurs are a traditional powerhouse in the Western Conference. They've won four championships in ten years, and their regular-season record has never fallen below 50 wins. For them, the fewer strong teams in the Western Conference, the better. Would they want to see an exaggerated Big Three formation from the Lakers in the middle of the zone?

Miami Heat star LeBron James had mixed feelings.

Fortunately, the number of Big Three teams in the league is increasing, and their lineups are becoming more and more exaggerated. Who will criticize him for forming a group? He was the first to eat crabs. Look at what others have done.

The concern is that the number of super teams in the league is growing, and the Heat's hopes of winning the championship are dwindling.

Most players and coaches in the league have made it clear in interviews that the Lakers will be the favorites to win the championship in the new season, even surpassing the Bulls and the Heat.

Wang Chong now says that the Heat are the biggest opponents of the Bulls in their title defense.

In last season's Eastern Conference Finals, the Heat were easily defeated and eliminated by the Bulls 4-1. The score wasn't even as close as the Dallas Mavericks, their opponent in the finals, who at least managed to win 2 games before being defeated 4-2.

Can this really be considered the biggest opponent in their defense of the title?

So the question is, what about the Lakers? Did Wang Chong completely ignore the Lakers' Big Three?

The interviewer was very excited and wanted to ask closely. "Are you saying that the Lakers' Big Three are nothing to fear?"

Wang Chong simply smiled and didn't answer, but this slight smile could be interpreted in many ways.

Of course, he has the confidence to back it up.

In just half a month of training, Wang Chong had shocked many people, especially the assistant coaches responsible for helping players in training.

Wang Chong's training was too intense, resembling a desperate method in the style of Saburo, with the training volume mainly focusing on physical conditioning.

Even Bulls head coach Thibodeau couldn't help but pause the training several times, fearing that Wang Chong would destroy himself before the regular season even began.

Thibodeau is recognized as a coach who likes to overwork his star players. When coaching players like Rose and Butler, he always uses them until they drop.

But Butler has relatively thick blood, so he can resist, and his follow-up is very vigorous. He often plays full games with the Heat.

But Rose, who was relatively fragile, couldn't resist and immediately wore out.

Even Thibodeau couldn't bear it, which shows how terrifying Wang Chong's training intensity was.

Of course, they didn't know that with the additional effect of the training module, Wang Chong's physical effort during training had been reduced, and his recovery speed had also increased. As long as he was willing to spend points, there was no need to worry about the training intensity.

Under the high-intensity training, although the training time was only half a month, Wang Chong had made remarkable progress.

Considering that this season is a shortened season, Wang Chong's main training direction was improving various physical attributes. The first thing he did was to intensely train his overall durability from 96 to the total value of 99 in one go.

Strengthening skill values can be difficult or easy. Since durability was Wang Chong's third skill to reach a total value of 99, he clearly felt that strengthening overall durability to 99 was much easier than the three-point shooting skill. Wang Chong had worked so hard on his three-point shooting last year, but it was still stuck at 98. Although it seemed just one step away from reaching 99, in reality, it was quite a different matter.

Of course, the effects and meanings of the two are entirely different and cannot be compared.

In addition to overall durability, Wang Chong also made significant advances in other physical aspects.

In terms of physical condition, Wang Chong's skill values were not particularly outstanding. Speed was 80, agility 80, strength 63, endurance 99, jump 77, explosion 83, and overall durability 96. Even with the intense training module, Wang Chong had made great progress. The situation improved after enhancing Durant's upper limit and improving physical strength and overall durability.

The improvement in skill values is that the lower the base value, the greater the improvement through training.

Therefore, after half a month of Wang Chong's intense training, his quality skill values have turned into 87 for speed, 85 for agility, 70 for strength, 82 for jump, 86 for explosive power, and 99 for overall durability.

It seems that the improvement in each element isn't particularly big, but the total accumulated skill value has increased by 30 points! This directly raised Wang Chong's overall skill rating from 98 to the total value of 99 in one go!

The overall skill rating evaluation finally reached the total value of 99. Wang Chong wasn't too excited because he knew very well that there was still a huge gap between having the same total value of 99.

At least now, Wang Chong still has many skill values that haven't even reached the threshold of 90. Even after half a month of intense training, his current physical skill panel is not particularly outstanding in the league.

A very simple comparison. At his peak, James's speed and agility could reach 90, his strength 92, his jump 94, and his explosive power close to 90.

Of course, James' greatest confidence lies in his exaggerated physical condition. Asking Wang Chong to compare his physicality with James' is asking for trouble, but it also shows that Wang Chong still has a lot of room for improvement, and there is plenty of room for growth. There is no training module that allows you to highlight one aspect and practice it exclusively. Of course, the premise is that you're willing to spend money.

Although Wang Chong's current overall skill rating has reached 99, he has only just surpassed the threshold. In 2K, even if some skills fail, they can still reach 99, and a total skill rating of 99 is still 99.

Of course, Wang Chong wants to be the person with a total skill value of 99.

To use a popular saying, the reason we both have a general rating of 99 is not to say that you and I are on the same level, but simply because the upper limit of this game's skill value is only 99.

The topic has drifted a bit.

Now, there has been a slight improvement in physical condition, which has greatly boosted Wang Chong's confidence. Regardless of whether the other Bulls players are ready, he is already prepared for the shortened season of the new year.

On December 16, the 2011-12 NBA preseason finally began.

No matter how many sensational events have happened in the league or how many super teams have emerged, the true benchmark for measuring a team's strength remains how many games it can win.
