Fortunately, this pessimism did not last long before it was stifled.

Lamar is back!

Originally, Lamar's plan was to quietly do some recovery training first to see if he could really adapt to the intense competition now. But seeing the Knicks' stormy appearance, neither Lamar nor the management can care so much.

The atmosphere of disappointment that hung over New York was so oppressive that Lamar couldn't breathe. So after some consideration, Lamar decided to make a high-profile announcement of his return.

Outside Madison Garden was full of reporters who were supposed to be here today to get some news from Darrell Morey's mouth. But when Lamar appeared in front of them, everyone was stunned, and then they swarmed up and surrounded Lamar.

Lamar 。。。。。。 ”

Lamar 。。。。。。 ”

Lamar 。。。。。。 ”

"Okay, all be quiet, and if you want to interview me, you'd better remember not to ask about irrelevant things. Especially my personal affairs! If you want to ask something about the team, I'm in a good mood today and I'm willing to cooperate with you

。 ”

Lamar's meaning is clear: it's okay to ask basketball! If you dare to ask something sensitive, you'll be forgiven!

Some reporters immediately swallowed back the questions that had come to their lips. Lamar had been gone for months, and they were going crazy trying to get some news out of Lamar's mouth, so it was better not to disobey him.

"What are your thoughts on the departures of Shanton Anderson, Jackie Butler and Johnson, and will this affect the quality of your team?"

"I'm also sorry for the departure of Shanton, Jackie and the young general, they are all very good players. But since they think they've made the right decision, as their friend, I think I should wish them success in their new team!"

"Everyone has the right to pursue happiness, don't you wait here every day to get some news? This is normal! And there are not all transactions going on in this alliance that day, and no one can stop this. For the Knicks, I guess it's not a big deal. Someone is destined to come when someone leaves, and I think the management of the team will continue to improve the squad. ”

"No matter what has happened, I believe our team will get stronger and stronger!" ad_250_left ();

"Lamar, how are you doing now, and will you play in the next pre-season?"

"I can't answer that question right now, it's going to be a matter of studying with Jeff and his coaching staff before we can make a decision, and I think Coach Van Gundy will get me on the pitch when the time is right. ”

"Last month Mr. Darrell Morey officially became the team's general manager, do you think Darrell Morey will be a qualified general manager?"

"You're really naïve about that!" Lamar sneered, then continued: "The team's performance last season was obvious to all, and it is inseparable from Mr. Darrell Morey's performance! Darrell is a shrewd guy, I think he would be a great general manager. He used to be a great data analyst and he did a good job as the team's assistant manager. Now why don't we give him a chance to prove that he can be a successful person in the position of general manager?"

Lamar's words were not only for reporters, but more importantly, he hoped that the team's owner, Dolan, would hear him and let Darrell Morey continue to work in the position of general manager of the team.

Getting rid of the reporters, Lamar finally walked into the long-lost training hall again.

The free agents who came to the Knicks for tryouts were very excited to see Lamar and even more hardworking.

Because they all know that the real person who can call the shots in this team is not general manager Darrell Morey, nor head coach Jeff Van Gundy, but the young man in his twenties in front of him.

Darrell Morey saw Lamar coming in, stepped forward and whispered to Lamar: "The three-way negotiations with the Pistons and the Nuggets have been decided. ”

"Oh!" Lamar was stunned, he didn't expect it to be so soon, "Who can we get from them?"

Darrell Morey smiled and said, "Guess what?!"

"Brazilian, *** Hilario?"

"Oh, did you get the news ahead of time? or how would you know?"

"Guess what?"

Hilario Hilario, for Lamar from later generations, this name is not thunderous, but it definitely carries enough weight.

Because if Lamar's little butterfly wings don't continue to fan, in the next two seasons, Hilario will become the Nuggets' inside giant.

Seeing Lamar stunned, Darrell Morey thought that Lamar didn't look down on this small role at all, and quickly explained: "I know that compared to the strength of Shanton Anderson, this deal is indeed a loss for us." But Lamar, we should take a long-term view and trust me, he's going to be a good player!"

"And what I really value is his toughness, and his physical gifts, and I think he's definitely no worse than Stoudemire in Phoenix. At that time, our team's interior line will not be just one guardian, but two. Think about how exciting it is. ”

As if to prove that he didn't suffer a loss in this deal, Darrell Morey exaggerated more and more, making it seem as if there was really no Hilario in the sky and nothing on earth.

"Alright, Darrell, I see what you mean, I'm not against the deal, and I'm willing to trust you. This guy would be a good helper. ”

After saying that, Lamar quickly got rid of Darrell Morey, who was even more mouthful than a reporter, and beckoned the assistant coach and team doctor to give him a physical examination. He now also wonders if his body is fit to compete in science.

And at this time on the beach in Rio de Janeiro, Hilario is also struggling with this deal.

After a career frenzy in the late June draft, more than a month of on-team training in Denver made Hilario feel like he had found the perfect fit for him. Although he didn't spend a lot of time with his teammates, Hilario could feel that the team's head coach, Mr. George Carr, was very important to him.

And in the past month or so, Hilario has a lot of friends in the Nuggets, and stars like Marcus Camby and Andre Miller have a very good relationship with him. He's even starting to look forward to his life in Denver.

But just as he was about to return to the Nuggets from Brazil for the team's preseason game, he was notified that he was sent to the New York Knicks as part of the Shanton Anderson trade.

What kind of team is the Knicks? Whether it's from the newspapers or what Hilario feels personally, it's extremely bad for him!

In the impression of *** Hilario, Nix Jane is really synonymous with bandits, and everyone who plays in that place is a heinous bandit in his eyes.

In the Eastern Conference semifinals last season, he vividly remembered that 70% of the league's mass brawls seemed to be inextricably linked to the Knicks.

According to the Nuggets' veteran players, every player of the Knicks is constantly making small moves on the court, and trash talk is pouring into the opponent's ears like no money. Such a chaotic team is simply hell for Hilario, an honest man who has been a little red flower since preschool, and an honest person who has been a good student every year.

"Honey!*** Hilario Hilario's agent informed me yesterday that today is the last day to report to New York, what are you waiting for?"

"Oh, what are you talking about, dear!" Hilario couldn't help but have a headache at the thought of going to a team like the Knicks: "I really don't know if it's right or wrong to go to New York? ”

"*** Hilario!" "My girlfriend gently hugged *** Hilario from behind: "It's not like what you said at all, are you afraid of something, or do you think you'll be excluded in New York?"

Hilario shook his head and shook his girlfriend's hand, "I don't know! It's just that the guys on that team don't seem very friendly, and I, my dear, you know, I'm just a rookie." There are so many guys like me in the league that I'm afraid I'm going to New York today and they'll cut me tomorrow. ”

"Alright!*** Hilario, don't be a child, you should be confident in yourself. I don't think it's a bad thing for you to go to New York, at least where you're more likely to win the championship. Besides, what you think is unfriendly is just wishful thinking on your part!"

"You can only come to such conclusions if you contact them personally, and now you say that it's empty words! And you're already a member of the Knicks, and you can't escape it. Rest assured, they'll welcome you, and you'll be sure to succeed in New York. ”

Just like his girlfriend said, no matter how unwilling Hilario was, he still had to embark on the journey.

He's just a rookie into the league, and they have a choice. Maybe this trip to New York is just an ordinary stop at the beginning of his basketball career, and maybe it won't be long before he packs his bags again and embarks on another journey like he is now.

Hilario's trip to New York didn't start very well, and he was picked up at the airport by just one of the team's top managers. And then all day *** Hilario was doing a physical examination, and during the physical examination, he even hoped that he was really found out something.
