The Los Angeles Lakers are the easiest team to play in the first round of the playoffs this year, this team ended its first round early, and now it has been rested for more than a week, of course, this is a very terrible thing for the Lakers, such a long rest is also a very terrible thing, the player needs to maintain his condition, and as the head coach of this team, Zhuang Fei is impossible to rest, at this time he needs to do another thing.

"Card, pretty, over"

With Joe Petka's order, Zhuang Fei also let out a long breath, and the last shot of the movie was finally finished.

"Zhuang, you are really a natural actor, I didn't expect an amateur to have such a strong sense of substitution, you said that the person who has the most 'one-time' times among all the actors under me, it is a pleasure to cooperate with you"

Just as Zhuang Fei took the mineral water handed by the crew, at this time, Joe Patka, as the executive director, also walked over from the camera with a smile on his face, this director is the director of Slam Dunk in the air, and the director of the first and second parts of La Dolce Vita, this time Zhuang Fei also asked him to be a consultant to Scarlett as the executive director of this film by the way.

Although the names of these so-called consultants or executive directors are very good, everyone knows that he was invited to be an assistant to Scarlett, although he is not a big-name director like Cameron or Jackson and Spielberg, but he is also a first-line director in Hollywood in recent years, and the director who won the best picture in Hollywood with the first film in La Dolce Vita asked him to be an assistant to a college student who is about to graduate from a college directing department, which is a difficult thing. Even if you have money, you can't do it. However, Zhuang Fei's relationship with him did show goodwill. Otherwise, he would not have agreed to Zhuang Fei's request, of course, for Scarlett, Zhuang Fei owed him a favor, that's for sure.

"I'm not an amateur, Joe, don't forget, I'm also an Oscar for Best Actor, I'm a professional," Zhuang Fei, who looked at his old friend, also said jokingly after taking a sip of water. Of course, Zhuang Fei is also joking, he has never put himself in his eyes as the so-called Oscar Best Actor, when Sweet Life was the first sports movie in history, Zhuang Fei also mentioned this matter, he didn't care much about this identity, so after Zhuang Fei finished speaking, Petka also shook his head with a wry smile.

"Yes, you are the Oscar Best Actor, but no Oscar Best Actor has your attitude towards the movie" Finally, the Petka director also said helplessly, in the past few years, he has repeatedly invited Zhuang Fei to go out again to be the leading actor in his movie. It's just that this Chinese has always refused, if it is other Oscar actors. How could a professional film actor do such a thing, so Patka also knows that this Chinese does not love movies, even if he is the Oscar for Best Actor.

"Joe, you know, I've been playing myself in the movie, and now I've finished playing myself, there's nothing else I need to play, if I play someone else, I don't know if I can do it" Zhuang Fei also looked at this old friend with a smile and said, I am indeed a little sorry for him over the years.

Zhuang Fei knows that since Jordan's air slam dunk and Zhuang Fei's sweet life became popular, especially after the first and second films of Sweet Life achieved extremely crazy box office results, there have been more basketball movies in Hollywood, almost two or three big investments every year, and the competition among the big film companies is extremely fierce.

As far as Zhuang Fei knows, after Fox came out with a 'play like Jordan' the year before last, MGM got a 'play like Carter' last year, and this kind of competition is just a microcosm, for example, this year, Paramount's just-released movie 'Coach Carter' once again caused a basketball storm in the United States, becoming the fourth film with a North American box office of more than $100 million, and Disney is talking about what a basketball movie is called "Road to Glory" with a huge amount of money.

And the slogan given by this movie is to go beyond 'Dolce Vita', which also puts this Joe Patka under a lot of pressure, and it also puts Warner under a lot of pressure, as the best film company in basketball movies, they haven't made a basketball movie after La Dolce Vita, which makes them a little embarrassed. Of course, the reason for all this was naturally that all the scripts they tailored for Zhuang Fei were thrown aside by Zhuang Fei.

"Yes, you have indeed been acting on yourself, so your performance has always been wonderful, but in my opinion, you are not just like that" Patka glanced at Zhuang Fei deeply and said, at this time, looking at this old friend who suddenly became serious, Zhuang Fei also smiled bitterly, the meaning of which was already obvious.

"Joe, you're embarrassing me, you know, I don't plan to make a movie anymore" Patka's meaning is already obvious, he hopes that Zhuang Fei can come back to the mountain, and this can be regarded as his favor to guide Scarlett to Scarlett as an assistant. It's just that after Zhuang Fei finished speaking, the Petka director still looked at Zhuang Fei without saying a word, which also made Zhuang Fei a little helpless.

"Okay, I agreed, but I swear, this is definitely the last time" In the end, Zhuang Fei also looked at the Patka helplessly and then said: "This time I won't make a sequel to Dolce Vita, you know, now this movie is a sequel"

"No problem, we have already prepared, as long as you agree" After seeing Zhuang Fei agree, the director of the air slam dunk also immediately said excitedly, for them, as long as Zhuang Fei agrees, this is the most important thing.

Finally, after a few words of greeting with Zhuang Fei, the director of Warner also left the crew in a hurry and prepared to return to Warner, obviously wanting to bring the news to the top management of his company.

"What's wrong with Mr. Petka?"

"I don't know, I think he must be very happy now" Zhuang Fei also shook his head with a wry smile and said, and at this time Scarlett was even more confused.

It is a happy thing for Zhuang Fei to be able to solve the work on Scarlett's side during the interval of the playoffs, and now there is no need to be distracted by him, and after the end of Scarlett's movie shooting, the next opponent of the Los Angeles Lakers has just come out.

The Los Angeles Lakers will face the Memphis Raptors led by Anthony and Mobley and Kwame Brown in the second round, which is very similar in style to the Timberwolves and is coached by a team of Zhuang Fei's disciples.

"Coach, here's the latest scouting report about the Raptors"

On May 8, 2005, in the head coach's office of the Los Angeles Lakers, the team's assistant coach Stephen Green gently put a report on Zhuang Fei's desk, and the Raptors and SuperSonics played a long game, which also made the Lakers' scouting system a little busy, at least on May 9, the day before the start of the game, this scouting report was prepared.

Of course, for the Lakers or for Zhuang Fei, it doesn't matter if there is a scouting report from the Raptors, for the style of this team, Zhuang Fei has a clear idea through these games in the regular season, and this report is only used to know how the team has been in shape recently.

"Kwame Brown has been in good shape recently, grabbing 25 rebounds in less than 30 minutes in the last game, as well as 10 offensive rebounds, grabbing 19 rebounds per game in the entire series, and nearly 8 frontcourt rebounds in each game.

Zhuang Fei also said with some emotion after a cursory glance at the report in his hand.

"The coach is not only rebounding, his defensive intimidation is also very good, and now that he has come to the peak of his form, we need to make some preparations now," Green also suggested again after Zhuang Fei finished speaking.

Judging from the outside public opinion, this game is actually not much of a challenge to the Lakers, many people think that there is no problem for the Lakers to win the Raptors, which is currently considered to be the strongest team in NBA history, it is still worth recognizing, but for Zhuang Fei, it is a fact that the team is dominant, and if you don't prepare, it is not very easy to play a team like the Raptors.

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you and Tom, let Chris pay more attention" Finally, Zhuang Fei also said in a deep groan after listening to Green's words, and after getting the order, Green also quickly withdrew from Zhuang Fei's office.

And in the end, after Zhuang Fei looked at the back of Green leaving, he also picked up the Raptors' scouting report on the table again and looked at it. At this time, he was also thinking about whether he could find some of the Raptors' fatal injuries.

On May 9, 2005, this was the day of the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Raptors, early in the morning, the league also announced the candidates for this year's best defensive team, and it was extremely surprising that O'Neal Jr., as the best defensive player of the year, was not selected for the defensive team, and this year's defensive players were Duncan, Garnett, Kwame Brown, Bowen and Jackson, and O'Neal Jr. was only in the second line, In the second defensive lineup, in addition to O'Neal, there are Kobe Bryant and Hardaway of the Lakers, as well as Artest and Kidd.

Of course, it is not too impossible that O'Neal Jr., who is the best defensive player, will not be able to enter the best defensive team, after all, the voters of these two awards are not the same, and it is clear that the choice of voters also determines different results.

In addition to the best defensive team, another lineup announced in the league today is the best rookie team and the best rookie player, the best rookie player Lakers' Chris Paul won the best rookie by a very narrow margin Okafor, and Paul himself was selected for the rookie team.
