Lamar struggled to get out of bed: "Let's go home now!"

When Sally saw that Lamar was about to get up, she hurriedly stopped: "Go back now?"

"It's okay!" Lamar laughed, "The smell of the potion here makes me almost vomit, and besides, I'm not bedridden yet." ”

Seeing that Lamar had made up her mind, Sally said no more, and helped Lamar out of bed and the two of them went home together.

When he arrived home, Lamar found that the outside of his family's estate was now full of reporters, with hundreds of people with long guns and short guns.

Lamar had a premonition that these guys wanted to interview him, but he hadn't expected so many of them.

Seeing Lamar arrive, reporters gathered around him and slapped Lamar vigorously.

"Lamar, will you play in the final Eastern Conference semifinals against the Detroit Pistons?"

"Lamar! Now the fans are very concerned about your physical condition, can you still support you to play the last game?"

The reporters' questions revolved around the final game.

Now Lamar's importance to the Knicks needs no explanation, with Lamar here, the Knicks have hope! If Lamar can't play in Game 5, then the game will still be in suspense.

It's no wonder they care so much, and no one who is in a bad physical condition will have any more thoughts about playing. At this time, finding a place where no one is there to heal is the most correct decision!

In the face of the siege of reporters, Lamar never said a word, and entered the manor smoothly under the protection of the security guards.

"Lamar!" Jonathan was obviously taken aback when he saw Lamar, and when he saw Sally beside him, he couldn't help frowning: "Sally, didn't I tell you that I wanted Lamar to stay in the hospital? ”

"It's okay, uncle! To be honest, I'm coming back on my own, I'm not used to a place like the hospital! Isn't there still a while before the fifth game?"

"Competition?" Jonathan rubbed his hair with some distress: "Lamar, are you sure you're not joking? Do you still have the heart to play at this time? You're not alone now, you think about Vanessa! Don't keep her worried about you! Forget the damn game, Mr. Dolan has already connected you with a well-known exercise physiologist yesterday, and what you should do now is to heal your injuries." ”

"No! I think Vanessa will support me. Lamar shook his head stubbornly: "This is my responsibility, my responsibility to all the Knicks fans, and my responsibility to my teammates! ”

Jonathan was dumbfounded by Lamar's words, he didn't know what to say! Perhaps he felt a sense of relief in his heart, after all, Lamar was willing to be a responsible person, and he was also honored as a father.

"Lamar, you also know responsibility, since you are responsible for the fans and teammates, why don't you be responsible for yourself, Vanessa, the children, and those of us who care about you?"

Jonathan was also taken aback, looking at his wife in confusion.

The aunt patted Jonathan's hand, then walked up to Lamar and pulled Lamar's ear and said, "Lamar, you bastard boy, I just spoiled you too much when I was a child, and made you so willful now!"

"Lamar, you're also about to get married, you have to think twice about everything! I'm proud of you for achieving the results you have now, but it's not an excuse for you to be willful! You have to settle down at home first, your uncle and I don't have to worry about you, Vanessa you must take care of it! Do you think you are a qualified husband now? Do you think your current character can be a support for Vanessa?"

Lamar nodded silently, yes! In this family, Vanessa has always paid silently, and he, except for basketball, seems to have nothing to praise!

The next time was when the family was chatting, and Lamar took the plane back to his room and got tired of Vanessa. Lamar also spoke his inner thoughts to Vanessa for the first time, and the two chatted in the room for a while before coming out.

Looking at the sweet appearance of the two holding hands, everyone also knows that the little lovers are reconciled.

At this time, head coach Jeff Van Gundy also arrived.

"Lamar, I didn't see you in the hospital, so I had to come uninvited!" Jeff Van Gundy held out his hand to Lamar from afar.

Lamar was glad Van Gundy came: "It's too late for me to welcome, Jeff! ”

Jeff Van Gundy saw that Lamar's spirit was not bad, and he also relaxed slightly: "You look good, I originally thought 。。。。。。 ”

"Death and life, right?" Lamar immediately interrupted Van Gundy, "Do you think I'm going to be that kind of self-pitying?" I thought I was completely done this time, but when I woke up in the morning, I felt pretty good, much better than I expected. ”

Jeff Van Gundy nodded, the two chatted for a while, Jeff Van Gundy was about to leave, hesitated for a moment and said: "I know that saying this at this time will make Vanessa and your family feel unhappy, but there are some things I must know in advance, after all, I have to prepare for the next game!"

"You don't have to say it, Jeff. Lamar interrupted Jeff Van Gundy: "I'll be back in time for the final game against the Detroit Pistons." ”

"No, no, Lamar, you misunderstood me, I'm here to inform you that you don't have to participate in the next competition, and now the chance to advance is in our hands. ”

Jeff Van Gundy is very clear, now that the Knicks are 3-1 ahead, Lamar doesn't matter even if he rests for a while.

After two rounds of playoff playoffs, Van Gundy now has a certain amount of trust in the rest of the Knicks. Van Gundy believes that the Pistons will not be able to stop the Knicks from advancing in such favorable circumstances, and since that is the case, he thinks Lamar might as well rest for a few days first. Even if the Knicks lost two games in a row, the final game was played in New York.

Lamar shook his head and said, "Jeff, I don't want to cool my body down. While my body can still remember the rhythm of the game, we have to make it to the Eastern Conference Finals in one go. ”

Jeff Van Gundy shrugged helplessly, knowing Lamar had made up his mind.

"Alright, Lamar, since you think you can, do as you say!"

"Of course, I won't let you down!"

The break is always so short, and in the blink of an eye, the fifth game between the New York Knicks and the Detroit Pistons is about to begin.

Lamar's injury has always touched the hearts of New York fans, and fans don't know if Lamar will continue to lead their team forward with an injury.

At this time, Lamar means everything to the Knicks, once Lamar falls, it will be tantamount to a heavy blow to the Knicks, and the Knicks who lose Lamar will lose hope of moving forward.

But soon they had a reassurance, on the day of the game. Lamar announced through the team's spokesperson that he will be playing in tonight's game.

The news is good news for New Yorkers, but not so rosy for Detroiters.

Originally, Pistons fans were still gloating about Lamar's injury getting worse, but at this moment they could only feel a deep fear.

How terrible is the Knicks with Lamar in charge?

"Fight!

With a loud battle cry, Lamar was still at the front of the line.

Every Knicks player today will be fighting for the final victory, and any obstacle that stands in their way can only be completely destroyed by them.

Rashid stood in the center of the Madison Garden arena, looking up at the electronic timing board high above the arena, looking very lonely.

Half a month ago, Paul Pierce was doing the same thing in the same place, and then ended his season full of resentment.

Empathetic, now Rashid can finally understand Pierce's mood at the beginning.

"Looks like you've won! But even if I fail, I'll leave Madison with my head up!" Rashid Wallace swore silently as he looked at Lamar, who was celebrating with his teammates in the distance, with a face full of loneliness and regret.

In fact, Lamar's mood is not very high now, even if he is laughing, but that smile is full of bitterness. The occasional ache in his body made Lamar not a little more excited when he could party like this.

"Looks like this guy's injuries are getting worse! Is it really worth it?"

"Rashid, what are you muttering?" Ben Wallace walked over, he was also looking at the whole Knicks team who were celebrating the victory not far away, and the expression on his face was envious: "It's a pity!

"yes, what a pity!" said Rasheed Wallace with a smile.

Suddenly, Rashid felt very relaxed, and now he could finally catch his breath after a busy season, although he didn't want the holiday to come so soon.

The Detroit Pistons did lose this game because they still led by as many as 12 points until the end of the first half. Just when everyone thought that the luck of the Knicks had run out and Lamar's energy had run out, Lamar once again told everyone with practical actions - the truth is always in his hands, and in Madison he is an omnipotent god.
