"Idiot! Lamar already has Vanessa, he doesn't fuck the guy!" Alan Houston's voice came from the outermost part of the crowd. ??? ? See·? It seems that this guy is also very satisfied with his performance some time ago, at least not to live up to Lamar's expectations.

Dampotter was also panicked when he heard this, and quickly let go of Lamar, and explained a little embarrassedly: "Don't worry, I won't do it!"

Lamar smiled faintly and patted Dampoter on the shoulder, then said to one of the Knicks' players, "Guys, the playoffs are about to begin, are you ready?"

"Fight!

"Very well! It seems that the three-day vacation has not allowed you to relax, and of course, now is not the time for us to relax, the real battle has only begun now!" Lamar said and nodded to Chaunsibilups.

"Lamar, you're talking so soon to end today?" Dampott touched his head full of doubts, then lowered his head and began to mutter, "Shirt, lost again! Doesn't Lamar usually talk for 5 minutes? Could it be that after three days of rest, the chatter has been cured?"

The Haitians thought they were talking very quietly, but in fact, Lamar, who was at the tip of his ears, heard it all, and his face became darker and darker: "Bastard! you dare to bet on Lao Tzu?!" Thinking of Lamar, he jumped up and kicked Dampot's ass fiercely: "Damn it! Dare to bet on Lao Tzu, you really owe it to clean up!"

Dampote was not annoyed by the kick, and made a look of grievance and said, "It's sad, Lamar! Don't you think it's good for me to leave more of my passion to my dear teammates?"

"Idiot, and you bastards, are they all participating?" Lamar glared at everyone after speaking, and then suddenly grinned, "Should I have a share as a party?"

After the joke, Lamar gathered his spirits and high-fived each of his teammates. Lamar then walked up to Antonio Davis, who was still on crutches, and the two men looked at each other for a moment.

"How's your recovery? Does the doctor say you're going to make it to the playoffs?"

Antonio Davis's expression was a little lonely, and his eyes inadvertently glanced at Lamar's face: "Unless the Knicks can enter the Finals! I really regret my impulsiveness now, otherwise I would have been the one who led the team at that time, not the hypocrite of Alan Houston!"

"Are you dreaming?" Alan Houston had obviously been paying attention to the situation here: "Why can't it be your turn, you might as well throw away your crutches first.??" Yes..."

"Damn bastard!"

Lamar shrugged, in fact, he still agreed with Alan Houston's statement in his heart, even if Davis was not injured, Lamar would not entrust the team to him, Billups is 10,000 times more reliable than him.

Van Gundy announced the start of practice, and now that the playoffs are getting shorter and shorter, the Knicks are running out of time to adapt to the team's new tactics.

However, considering that Lamar had a problem in his heart, Van Gundy did not rush to let him immediately participate in the team's training, but let him go to the team's psychological counselor under the leadership of the assistant coach to receive some psychological counseling.

"I have read Mr. Smith's report. To be honest Lamar, I don't think you have any problems at all right now, I guess you're just too idle right now. In fact, the problem is still with me, I shouldn't have taken a three-day long vacation at once!"

In the team's gym, Van Gundy took the opportunity to speak out directly, and he was also afraid that the players would lose face if they knew about Lamar's condition.

"Jeff, do you think it's necessary to talk about this now, and since there are no problems, let's go all out and prepare for the playoffs. ”

"Okay!" Van Gundy nodded a little helplessly, but also a little relieved, and then said: "I really hope that the Knicks can enter the Finals this season, Lamar, are you confident?"

"Of course!"

"Also, do you have any opinion on the team basketball tactics that the team is doing now? Of course you will still be the only one-of-a-kind core!"

"I think I made it clear when I came back at the end of March, and I'm going to give you my full support! Of course, if you keep us winning, and to be honest, I prefer the current tactics to the new triangle we did at the start of the season!" Lamar is always supporting Jeff Van Gundy, and in Lamar's opinion, there is nothing to be picky about Jeff these days.

"Finished talking to Jeff, did you feel good about leading the team to the playoffs for the first time?" Billups, who had been with Lamar for the longest time, stood in front of Lamar.

"Of course!" Lamar slapped the ball and touched Billups' outstretched fist, "Chauncey, let me see how you've adjusted during this time?"

"You'll see it soon!" said Billups, who suddenly took a step forward and wanted to break the ball.

Lamar knows this guy very well, and knows that this guy seems to be stable but is actually very sullen. Seeing that Billups wanted to sneak up, Lamar dodged with a simple horizontal pull, and then a ground-hitting pass handed the ball to Alan Houston, who ran along the baseline to the basket.

"Huh!" the mid-pitcher jumped up leaning on Jackie Butler and scored the ball with a small backhand throw.

Alan Houston didn't speak, just gave Lamar a thumbs up to signal that he had made a beautiful pass.

"Lamar, you're not authentic, didn't you say we're going to go head-to-head?" Billups looked at Lamar a little annoyed.

"Heads-up? If you can sneak up on me, I can't pass the ball?"

"No! You're cheating. ”

"You don't get tired of deceit, you know?" Lamar smiled, stepping back slowly with small steps.

Because it was just ordinary team training, Lamar was not 100% committed when defending, so Lamar's role was basically weakened to the point of being dispensable. Of course, Lamar is not so idle, his target is the relatively weak offensive Sean Battier, the Knicks' most improved rookie during this time.

Battier's most dangerous offensive is his three-point shooting, and Lamar has always been the most capable of such players. With Lamar's blocking ability, almost no one dares to force a shot in front of him, but in the current situation, Lamar has restrained a lot when defending.

Defensively he doesn't give his all, but in attack Lamar it's a completely different story. Although Lamar didn't score a point from start to finish in this training match, he handed over 15 assists. In addition, he initiates almost every attack of the team, and Lamar's role for the whole team is self-evident.

"This guy is a genius!" said assistant coach Tom Thibodeau, shaking his head.

"Of course! I don't have the slightest doubt about one thing. Van Gundy smiled happily, and he was worried that Lamar was just perfunctory. But judging from the performance of this month, Lamar is enjoying the fun brought to him by team basketball, which can be seen from the data of nearly a month after Lamar's comeback. So Jeff Van Gundy's worries are completely unnecessary.

"This guy can always use his own advantages to find the most suitable position for himself in the team, such a player is the most terrifying! I used to think that such a player would only have one Michael Jordan in 30 years, but now it seems that this guy is even more terrible than Michael!"

Tom Thibodeau also laughed: "Michael is not as mature as Lamar at this age! Now the only way to stop Lamar is to break his hands, and then break his feet." Otherwise, this guy will always be able to influence his team through his own efforts. ”

"It's an honor to coach such a guy in my life!" Van Gundy laughed a little incomprehensibly.

The news that the Knicks had assembled early to prepare for the playoffs was transmitted to the other teams through the mouth of an unnamed team staffer.

For a while, the other fifteen teams in the league participating in the playoffs were in a hurry, and the grass and trees were all soldiers!

Lamar and his Nicks are dismissive of this, all reactionaries are paper tigers, and strong strength can survive in this alliance.

The regular season is over, and the season's biggest prizes are beginning to be unveiled before the playoffs begin.

The MVP was undoubtedly awarded to Shaq of the Los Angeles Lakers, but Lamar was still named to the league's first team with 25.7 points, 11.2 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game, and also won the league's steal king, putting some traditional point guards and power forwards to shame.

This year's awards ceremony was held in Los Angeles, and Lamar did not attend in person, not because Lamar hated going to Los Angeles, but because New York and Los Angeles were too far apart, Lamar did not want to waste time training with the team. Still, Lamar discussed it with Mr. Stern and recorded an acceptance speech.

Although Lamar did not go to Los Angeles, Lamar still took his family to watch the live broadcast of the award ceremony at home.

"Lamar, why don't you go? I know a lot of people envy this moment! This is a national broadcast!" Krees looked at Lamar with a curious expression, which she would never have understood in her little head, and in her knowledge this was the highlight of the limelight.

Lamar didn't say anything, but glanced affectionately at Vanessa beside him. Seeing Vanessa smiling very happily, she shrugged her shoulders a little helplessly, but her face was full of happiness.

"I envy you, Lamar, your house is always so active, and my house is always dead compared to here. Vanessa looked at the two bear children who were playing on the side, and said with a little envy.

"Don't you think this is your home?" Lamar asked with a smile.
