Seeing that although the two are still sharp-tongued, there is no actual physical conflict, the onlookers of the Knicks also secretly let go of their hanging hearts, they know very well that the main tactics of the team in the new season are based on the established policy of Lamar, and they don't want to cause too much internal friction within the team because of contradictions. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this time, Jeff Van Gundy and his coaching staff also came out, and seeing that the situation was effectively controlled, and looking at the scars on Lamar and Antonio Davis, he already knew what had just happened here.

"You've had enough trouble, now start training!"

"Wait!" Lamar suddenly interrupted Jeff Van Gundy, "Coach, I don't want to offend your authority, but there is one more thing that must be dealt with here today, I remember you said that anyone who is late for training will be punished for running ten laps around the training hall every time he is late, and Antonio Davis is twenty-nine days late, which means that he has to run two hundred and ninety laps around the training hall. ”

Lamar's words escalated the tense atmosphere in the training hall again, and the heart that had been put down was suspended again.

Jeff Van Gundy also has a hard time to say, he did do such a rule, but Antonio Davis is obviously different now, after all, the prescribed time for pre-season joint training has not yet begun, and Asoster should be free at this time, he can do whatever he likes at any time, and it seems that it is not within the scope of punishment.

And now everyone can see that Antonio Davis is already scarred, coupled with the fierce battle with Lamar just now, he has already exhausted all his strength, and now let him run nearly 300 laps around the training hall, it is better to kill him directly.

Just when Jeff Van Gundy was embarrassed, Antonio Davis suddenly spoke: "Okay!

"Antonio, are you crazy, I'll remember your punishment for you, and it's not too late for you to resume execution. "Jeff Van Gundy doesn't want one of his generals to collapse from exhaustion before the season even starts.

Antonio Davis sneered, looked at Lamar and said, "I don't want to be seen as a coward who dares to do things.

Lamar said with a blank face, "Then let's get started! How long do you want to delay?"

"You don't have to bother!"

Davis didn't look back after speaking, limped to the sidelines, and began to jog under the surprised gaze of everyone, although he pretended to have a relaxed expression, but at this moment everyone could see that he was enduring the pain, the scars on his body, and the violently twitching leg muscles, not only torturing his body, but also torturing his nerves.

Such a scene made Jeff Van Gundy also lose the interest of organizing the team to continue training, and after a few words of advice from the assistant coach, he left first.

The other players also found Lamar's approach a bit unkind, and after a simple and reasonable placement under the leadership of the assistant coach, they went home.

"Lamar, I've got you acting a little bit unusually today, even though it was Antonio Davis who started the incident first, but you went too far. Chauncy Billups looked at Antonio Davis, who was still running laps, and complained to Lamar.

Lamar didn't look at Chauncy Billups, and was still watching Antonio Davis with a blank face: "Chauncey!

Chauncey wanted to say something more than Loops, but when he saw Lamar's expression, he held back, glanced at Antonio Davis sympathetically, and turned to leave the training hall.

It's late at night, and Antonio Davis's punishment isn't over yet, and a lot of time has passed since he started running laps.

Lamar could see that if he hadn't had a proud heart to support him, he would have fallen long ago, but because his pride didn't allow him to lose face in front of Lamar, he persevered.

At one o'clock in the morning, Antonio Davis finally finished the punishment, he wanted to fall down and rest, but when he thought of Lamar watching next to him, he stubbornly stood up, and walked towards the door quietly, every step was very strong, and stubbornly showed his strongest side in front of Lamar.

Lamar looked at Antonio Davis who was far away and suddenly smiled, but no matter how good this beast is, at least he is still a strong man who dares to act and take responsibility, and this alone makes Lamar want to leave him as a big help on the field.

The next day, when Lamar and Chauncey Billups drove to the team's training facility, there was already the sound of basketball hitting the floor and the squeak of sneakers rubbing against the floor.

Someone is already coming?

Lamar and Chaunsibilups looked at each other suspiciously, both trying to find the answer from each other, in the past, it was the two of them who first arrived at the training ground, but today they changed masters.

When the two of them walked into the training hall, it was instantly quiet.

It's Antonio Davis!

Standing in front of Lamar was Antonio Davis, but the beast was so badly injured yesterday that it was covered with a lot of bandages, and it looked like a mummy that had just been thrown.

The two of them just stood like this, looking at each other with sharp eyes, and Chauncy Billups, who was standing next to him, could even feel the huge magnetic field generated by the duel in the air from the aura of the two people.

"You're late!" Antonio Davis said, "does that mean you're going to run ten laps of him too!"

Chaunsibillups rushed to say, "What are you kidding? What time is it? It's still early for training!"

Antonio Davis didn't look at Chauncy Billups at all, and kept staring at Lamar: "What do you say?."

"Of course you should be punished for being late!" Lamar said as he walked to the sideline and began his jog.

Chauncy Billups hesitated for a moment, then followed: "Lamar! I really find out that guy is a bastard now, you were too kind to him yesterday!"

"I remember that you were still interceding for him yesterday?

"I was in a daze yesterday. Chauncey Billups scolded and suddenly picked up speed and ran forward, not wanting to be seen by his teammates as he was being punished by Antonio Davis.

Soon the ten laps were over, and Lamar walked up to Antonio Davis: "Is there anything else to say now?"

Antonio Davis grinned, but the strange smile looked very uncomfortable in Lamar's eyes: "Don't think that if I won yesterday, I can command me, although I lost, it doesn't mean that I will be convinced!

Although I lost, it doesn't mean that I am convinced!

The stubborn Antonio Davis is expressing his inner unwillingness to Lamar in his own way!

Although Jeff Van Gundy announced the ban on the same day, Lamar and Davis' clash that day was quickly stabbed into the Knicks' upper echelons.

After Knicks owner Dolan learned about the incident, he specifically approached Lamar and asked if it was necessary to trade Antonio Davis away to clarify his core position.

Lamar simply refused, he is not a person who does not distinguish between public and private, although he is very resentful of Antonio Davis's provocative behavior, but he also knows the role of this guy for the team.

Now that the conflict is over, the entire Knicks are now led by Jeff Van Gundy. The final run-in training before the start of the new season is going on, trying to be in the best shape after the start of the season.

Similarly, the Knicks' uniform team is not idle right now, and they are trying to do everything they can to make the final improvement of the team. According to Jeff, the most urgent need for the team now is an experienced backup point guard.

After the purge, the team is currently left with Samuel Dampot in the center position, this guy is still a rookie player! Although Jackie Butler can also play center, there is a question mark on his strength. As for Antonio Davis, his strength is good, but he is too short, 2 centimeters shorter than Lamar.

Although Lamar can also play well in this position, Jeff Van Gundy prefers to have him in the power forward position so as to maximize his attacking power.

In this case, with the team's current reserves in the center forward position, it is simply not enough to cope with the heavy schedule. What's more, in this position, the Knicks' only option is actually a rookie rookie. Therefore, what Jeff Van Gundy urgently needs now is a recruit to come, to be able to fight, and it is best to have experienced veteran players in the tournament to come to the town, otherwise it will be inevitable that these rookies will fall off the chain when they encounter major games.

In the end, in a list provided by the uniform team, Jeff Van Gundy selected Ewing, the gorilla who had made great contributions to the Knicks, hoping that the big guy would be willing to return to the Knicks with a base salary to contribute to the Knicks' battleship, and by the way, he could also coach the immature Darm Porter as an interior coach. But the old guy immediately abandoned his original parent team in the face of the temptation of the huge 2-year 47.25 million contract offered by the Magic team. In desperation, after snatching off a few hairs that had grown out of his head, Van Gundy turned his attention to Olajuwon, the big dream who was in conflict with the Rockets.

This season, Olajuwon has a final year of contract (player option) and a contract value of $22.3 million.

The Rockets have now fully begun a rebuild, so Olajuwon's huge contract in the final year has become a burden for the team.

Alexander, the owner of the Rockets, who was not a rich man in the first place, did not want to spend so much money at this time to raise a veteran who had been in serious decline, even if this old guy had brought infinite glory to the Rockets.

So the general manager of the Rockets, Dawson, contacted Olajuwon, hoping that he would voluntarily give up the final year of his contract and then renew his veteran contract with the team. If Olajuwon doesn't agree, the Rockets will have to buy it out or trade it. (A trade is unlikely, though, as Olajuwon is 39 years old and his contract is too big for any team to take such a contract.) (To be continued.) )
