Sharp: "McDie first proposed that if McGrady was in that Lakers, he thought the Lakers could win as many championships as Shake and Kobe's time. Later Kobe agreed with him. But many people thought, "Get it, brother, now everyone is engaged in historical revisionism." It's not that McGrady is not strong, but do you really think he can win so many championships in the Lakers? I really hate this argument, 'He is an excellent player, if he put him in that team, if he put him in that team In the team, it will definitely be like this, but the fact is not the case at all. "

Lu: "I do think they will win at a high probability, but it is hard to say how much they can win. McGrady had no weakness at all at the time: on the defensive end, he could defend 1 to 4 positions, and was 6-foot-9. On the offensive end, he could play pick-and-roll, pass well, and make the right offensive choices. Whether it was a single with his left shoulder or right shoulder, he could turn around and jump shots, and he could all do mid-range and emergency stop jump shots, and he could also complete the end. His athletic ability It's also excellent. And as I said before, as long as he has good coaching guidance and adapted to the triangular offensive system, he will definitely shine and will definitely perform well. There is Shaq in the team. You should know that Shaq was one of the best players in the world at that time, but it is really difficult to compare. Kobe can show that kind of fighting spirit and competitive mentality every day - you must have this mentality, and you have to use this mentality to drive Shaq. Now the question is, can McGrady do this? "

Sharp: "You have to push Shaq forward."

Lu: "That's right, Kobe is pushing Shaq every day, so can McGrady do this? I'm not sure. In terms of talent, he is definitely one of the most talented players we have ever seen, so I think he is likely to help the Lakers win the championship. But the key is not talent and performance on the court, but whether he can challenge Shaq every day: When Shaq doesn't do what he should do, dare to say he is? When Shaq refutes you, can you withstand it?"
