Chapter 839
After losing the game, Garnett is not in the mood to stage any brotherly and sympathetic scenes with Lamar now. What's more, Lamar, the bastard, choked himself at the beginning of the game, and of course he also acted irrationally towards Lamar.
"Don't think that if we win once, we're going to be disheartened. If you're lucky, we'll see you in the finals, and I'll be sure to capture your bandits!"
Garnett spoke quickly and didn't seem to want to give Lamar a chance to speak, before he turned and walked towards the players' tunnel. The wolf king tilted his head back and looked as if he had won. The wolf king is the wolf king! Even if he leads a group of huskies, even if he loses the game, he will not change his proud character.
After walking a few steps, Garnett couldn't help but glance back, and saw that Lamar was still looking at him expressionlessly, and asked with a frown: "What do you want to say?"
Lamar snorted coldly and shot back unceremoniously: "Hmph! It seems that you are the one who did a little too much tonight, not me!"
"Say it straight! It's not like your character!"
"It's nothing, I'm relieved to see you like this. At least you haven't tucked your tail and dressed up as a husky. If that's the case, the alliance is really boring. You guys aren't very good, but at least I can enjoy being challenged, and to be honest, you're not completely useless!"
When Garnett heard this, he was immediately furious, and his originally fierce gaze was now almost about to shoot out sword light. But it quickly dissipated, he and Lamar are very familiar, but he naturally knows Lamar's temper very well, and knows that Lamar is just a hard mouth when he says this!
"Thank you for your concern, I'm not going to stop until I win the championship. Since you like to be challenged, look forward to it, and the next time we meet, I'd like to see if you're a lost dog. ”
Lamar smiled, unconcerned about Garnett's threat: "I'm looking forward to that day, after all, it's not fun to keep winning like tonight." If you want to see the day I lose my soul, you'd better go back and practice now, maybe there's more hope for that. ”
"We'll see!" Garnett turned and walked a few more steps, then looked back and hesitated for a long time before saying, "You're really an unbelievable guy, and it's a shame not to have the opportunity to be your teammate." But I'm going to say, no matter what, you're a nuisance!"
Lamar shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "You just like me, and I won't feel honored!"
The two men looked at each other and smiled, and then went their separate ways. They will never have the opportunity to play together again in their lives, unless Garnett is willing to accept a veteran contract to go to the Knicks to serve Lamar as a backup, of course, such a situation will never happen to the Wolves.
Lamar finished the game with 64 points, eight assists and 13 rebounds (eight of which were frontcourt rebounds, which is definitely a miracle considering Lamar's score tonight), in addition to five steals. Lamar was a god overnight, not only turning the NBA's single-game three-point record into 16, but also rewriting Madison's scoring record, kicking Jordan out of Madison's scoring record list in one fell swoop.
On the other side of the Minnesota Timberwolves, Kevin Garnett: 34 points, 5 assists and 12 rebounds, Sprewell: 20 points, 4 assists and 6 rebounds, and Cassel: 18 points, 9 assists and 3 rebounds.
This game doesn't really mean anything special in the eyes of the players on both sides, it's just an ordinary regular season, and they play 82 games a season like this. But under the rendering of media reporters, it has been given more meaning.
In the eyes of many, this is a pre-staged Finals, and the Knicks, who won the victory, are basically booked for the championship.
After this game, the Knicks can be regarded as sitting on the first place in the league, and they no longer have to share this honor with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Minnesota Timberwolves, on the other hand, are about to start a new round of catch-up, and the battle between these two teams has only just begun.
Wallis Zebiak executed the final throw, and Bobby Simmons blocked and didn't get to the ball. Szzerbiak had already raised his left arm in the air and smiled victoriously. Wally beat the Knicks, the Minnesota Timberwolves won and they started a new dynasty, the Minnesota Timberwolves won, they won the championship!"
"Whew!"
Lamar suddenly woke up from his dream, and saw that it was still dark around him, and Vanessa was still asleep beside him, and seemed to have dreamed of something, and wrinkled her delicate eyebrows from time to time.
Lamar rubbed his face vigorously, sobered himself up a little, and carefully recalled for a while, the scene of last night's game gradually became clear, thinking that Lamar showed a bitter smile.
After Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett also became Lamar's enemy. Although there is no way to do it, anyone who covets that championship trophy will become Lamar's enemy. But another friend became an enemy on his way to winning the championship, which made Lamar feel more and more lonely!
Fortunately, Lamar still has a group of teammates, all of whom are his staunchest supporters, and Lamar feels a little comforted in his heart.
In the dream just now, the scene of Szczebiak's last shot was repeated, only this time the goal went in. And the scene has also become the arena of the Finals, and the jubilant scene of the Timberwolves fans in the stadium made him break out in a cold sweat.
"Lamar, why did you get up so early?" a warm delicate body lay on Lamar's back, and a pair of hands naturally climbed on Lamar's shoulders.
Lamar laughed, took Vanessa's hand, and whispered, "Nothing!"
Vanessa poked her head over and glanced at Lamar, "Lamar, you have something on your mind? You can't fool me, can you talk to me?"
Lamar hesitated for a moment, but finally took Vanessa as the person he confided in: "I don't know what's wrong? Vanessa, I don't seem to be so hungry for honor anymore? Maybe I've been playing in this league for too long, so I'm a little tired of it!"
Vanessa frowned, thought for a while and said, "How can you have such an idea? You have only played in the NBA for five years, according to you, what should those old guys who have played for ten or twenty years do?"
Lamar is really dumb and eats yellow lotus, he can't tell him that he is reborn, he can't tell Vanessa that he is reborn, and he has been playing in the NBA for 20 years in his two lives combined.
"Of course! If you do too much of one thing, you will inevitably get burnout. Lamar, you've just been so tired lately, that's why you're thinking about what you don't have. I've always been envious of that feeling, but when you're on stage, I feel like I have the whole world, because I'm sure you're going to be the king of the world one day, and you're going to have a ring on your hands!"
Lamar looked up at the ceiling and said to himself, "I've told you the same before!" every time I'm standing on the basketball court with a basketball in my hand, I feel like I'm in control of the world, and I'm the one who makes the rules." But now it's different, I can't tell why, I'm always provoking my opponents, hoping that this will make them use their best energy to fight me. ”
"Every time I beat a strong opponent, I feel satisfied, but now I find that all of a sudden, I don't feel like I will feel like this anymore, anyway, now I feel very empty and I don't know what to do next!"
Vanessa turned around and lay on Lamar's lap, looked at Lamar as if she had met Lamar for the first time, looked at it and smiled, holding Lamar's face in her hand: "Honey, how can you feel like this? Isn't basketball your life? If it's life, how can you feel empty? Or do you think that after defeating the Los Angeles Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves, you have reached the highest peak? In the future, there will be no more enemies on the basketball court who can threaten your position? Oh my God! Lamar: I don't even know what to say about you. ”
"There will always be places in this world that we can't see, and maybe at any time from Africa, yes, it's Africa! A genius will suddenly come out and challenge you and defeat you. All you have to do now is get ready for this challenge!"
Lamar looked at Vanessa with a little surprise and asked a little confused, "Didn't you like me to play basketball before?"
Vanessa rolled her eyes: "That was before! I really didn't like you playing basketball before, because as long as you stand on the court, your world is only basketball, your opponents and their baskets, and you never notice me sitting on the sidelines." And, of course, Leon, but now I suddenly see that you're really handsome when you're working the field!"
Lamar smiled, the shadow that shrouded him when he woke up disappeared without a trace, and suddenly he felt full of strength in his body again, and looked down at Vanessa with a smile: "I think I have one more reason to work hard in the future." That's for you, and of course Leon and Datinis!"
After saying that, Lamar kissed the two lips, Vanessa's hands hooked Lamar's neck, and the large bedroom was quiet again.
After lingering in bed for a while, Lamar's mood was much better. After a big game against the Minnesota Timberwolves yesterday, the Knicks players can be said to be physically and mentally exhausted. So today, the team has a holiday, and Lamar has also changed his previous habits, rarely lying in bed once, and it was already more than nine o'clock in the morning when he got up and went downstairs.
