The next day, the two-day vacation had passed. www.biquge.info The Knicks will host one of Lamar's favorite opponents, the Los Angeles Clippers, on their home court.

In the previous two seasons, all the games against the Clippers, the team represented by Lamar won without exception, and Lamar always had a gratuitous hatred for the team that chose him and abandoned himself. Even now with the New York Knicks, he still doesn't want the Clippers to get any wins from him.

Because of the previous incident, Lamar did not come to the team's training for two consecutive days, and some of the players who came early today are looking at the gate, looking forward to Lamar's appearance.

"Chauncey, aren't you staying with Lamar, will he be here today?" said Samuel Dampot, a little worried, Chauncy Billups.

Chauncy Billups shrugged and said, "I've got a house to move out of, and Lamar has a new girlfriend now, ah! It's Vanessa, she's back, and I don't want to ruin their world." ”

"Has the training started?"

Suddenly Lamar appeared, standing at the gate as usual, but today he was not the first to arrive.

"Brothers, we're not as weak as the Raptors tonight, and hopefully the prestige of Brand and Tyson won't scare you into getting weak, remember, we have only one goal in mind, and that's to win." ”

Just as the players were rejoicing at Lamar's presence, an untimely voice appeared.

"You've missed two days of training, don't forget to take the punishment!"

Of course, it was Lamar's sworn rival in the team, Antonio Davis, who never forgot to knock Lamar whenever he had the chance, and it had almost become his habit.

In fact, after more than a month of training with Lamar, especially after the last game against the Raptors, Antonio Davis already knew that he had no hope of beating Lamar at all.

He doesn't have the once-in-a-century talent of Lamar, nor does he have the dazzling star temperament of Lamar, he is just an ordinary player. The reason why he can have his current achievements is also the result of his usual efforts. It's rare for a player like him to be called a defensive stalwart like he is now.

It is precisely because of this that he looks down on those players who are talented but unwilling to work hard, just like when he was in the Raptors. Tracy McGrady, the heart of that team, became nostalgic for nightclubs and bars after his success.

At first, he thought that Lamar was also such a young man, so he made trouble with him everywhere, and once wanted to seize Lamar's leadership position. But gradually, Lamar's efforts have reached an extreme of all the players in this league, Lamar's requirements for himself can be described as harsh, and his rejection of Lamar in his heart is much smaller.

It's just that for a guy like him who wants to save face, it is probably more difficult for him to take the initiative to show favor to Lamar than to kill him, and he seems to have adapted to this kind of unflattering role, so he can play the villain of the team with peace of mind.

Lamar didn't say anything about Antonio Davis' egg-picking attack, just shrugged his shoulders and walked to the sideline to accept the punishment.

"Damn, you know Lamar hasn't been training lately because of something. As Lamar's most loyal younger brother, Chaunsibilups quickly came out to complain about his boss.

Antonio Davis didn't even look at it, but sneered and said, "Latecomers are punished for running laps, isn't that the rule set by that guy? ”

"You bastard! That depends on what's going on. ”

"Chauncey, stop talking, it's me who deserves to be punished. Lamar stopped Chauncey Billups, who wanted to say more, and continued to carry out his self-punishment around the training hall.

Before the start of training, Jeff Van Gundy, who was late to the party, finally showed signs of sunny and cloudy after seeing Lamar.

"This stinky boy finally didn't disappoint me!"

8 p.m. ET, Madison Square Garden Arena, New York.

With two hours to go, the stadium, which can accommodate nearly 20,000 people, was already full. There was a striking resemblance to every spectator who came to watch the game today, and they all wore the uniform Knicks No. 7 jersey. It is to express his apology to Lamar and to express his support for Lamar.

Not only inside the arena, but also outside the arena, there were a large number of Knicks fans who couldn't buy tickets, and they rushed from all over New York with all kinds of signs in support of Lamar.

"Your past honor will also be our pride. ”

"Please stay and lead us to glory. ”

All kinds of slogans are trying to keep Lamar, and it seems that Faulkel's words have indeed made them realize that some of their actions are likely to completely knock the Knicks into the abyss, and the revival warriors they have finally recruited will also be forced away by themselves.

When the Knicks players entered the game before the game, Lamar was still last on the team. Standing quietly in the players' tunnel with his head up, waiting for his moment to play.

The moment Lamar stepped on the court, every Knicks fan in the stands held up a sign that had been hidden for a long time at the same time, and nearly 20,000 slogans with the same sentence written on them were planted at once.

"Lamar, stay and be our king. ”

Seeing such a situation, even a cold-blooded animal like Lamar couldn't help but be a little moved, and it was from this moment that he began to slowly integrate into this team, and really entrusted himself to this team that he was still a little unfamiliar with.

"What an enviable reunion, Lamar! Now do you want me to lift you up and run around the court!" Samuel Dampotter smiled innocently, but his eyes were shining with envy.

Lamar nudged Samuel Dampot, smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Rookie, let's use your strength on today's opponent!"

As the two men talked, Elton Brand, the boss of the Clippers, walked over, and he was a big change from when Lamar first met in the preseason two years ago, at least not so domineering.

"Hey, Lamar, I didn't expect to meet again so soon. ”

Although Lamar can not care about Elton's contempt for him in the first place, he can't forget the fact that the Clippers abandoned him. As long as the players of the Clippers are his enemies in his eyes, even Cassell, who has a good relationship, becomes enemies on the court.

"If I could, I'd like to be able to get rid of you all at once!" Lamar's words were not polite, but they were obviously much less hostile.

"It's not that easy, we've got a couple of great guys this year. ”

If it was Brand in the past, Lamar's words would definitely make him furious, even if it was a duel on the spot, it was not impossible. But now he can force himself to accept all this calmly, the poor form of the team in the past two years has already exhausted him physically and mentally, and the original pride has almost dissipated at this moment.

"You'll never win me!"

With that, Lamar turned and walked towards his team's rest area.

Brand was stunned for a moment, and walked in the other direction, looking really calm, just looking at his trembling hands, he knew that he was already on fire now, and he was just holding on. He also wants to change himself, but unfortunately, only the surface of the change is made.

As soon as the game began, the fans immediately cheered, and as soon as Lamar got the ball, the roar in the stands would immediately increase by several decibels.

The other players of the Knicks also became energetic and unstoppable in such a warm atmosphere, and played wonderful cooperation one after another, and the goals that could be selected as the top ten of the week were also staged.

The Clippers players were obviously shocked by the momentum of the Knicks, and became timid on the court, and the few guys who Elton didn't look at as powerful completely disappeared from the court. The team's overall offense still relies on the three cores of Brand, Tyson, and Cassel, but these three are old and small, and the team itself lacks excellent outside players, so there is no way to ensure the shooting rate of the outside, and the final result can only be a rout.

Even Brand himself, facing the team's rout at the moment, seems helpless, he knows that he only now realizes that the current Clippers are no longer the super team that reached the finals in a row.

The game has reached the final moments, Brand has 24 points at the moment, 12 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 blocks, although the team has fallen behind the Knicks by nearly 20 points, but he still got a double double with his own strength.

As the game drew to a close, Brand got a free throw to get the ball in. He will be able to score the 4,000th point of his career, surpassing Randy Smith and becoming the youngest player in Clippers history to score 4,000 points.

Although the legend of the defeat somewhat diminished Brand's joy, the record is the record, and as long as he threw the ball in, he could be on par with some of the greatest players in Clippers history. Probably because the record was right in front of him, Brand suddenly became a little nervous, a feeling he hadn't felt in a long time.

"Calm down! Calm down! Elton Brand, you can do it, you can do your best! It's not a hard shot for you at all, you've made countless throws like this in your career, and there must be no problem this time. Believe in yourself and you will be able to do it!"
