Tenth in the West, this position is not desperate but definitely not close. After the All-Star Game, they did rely on McMillan's strong suppression and became strong for a while, but soon ** defeated reason, Rasheed Wallace and Pippen trained in the team for the team's status to quarrel again, and finally even turned into a fight, and the team's newly revived image was instantly beaten into its original shape.

Today's Trail Blazers are like people who only have one hand on the edge of a cliff, and they can only struggle on their own to successfully get out of danger, and this difficult task seems to be accomplished by no one in the team.

Even if they can climb the cliff, no one is optimistic about their playoff prospects. What if a team is full of intrigues, old and sick, even if they are all superstars with tens of millions of annual salaries? In the playoffs, they can at best carve the whole Trail Blazers team here on the soles of the feet of a strong team, and that's it.

The smoke of the regular season has not yet dissipated, and all possibilities remain. Although the Knicks basically lost the opportunity to enter the first echelon, for this team that is starting to sunset, it can be said that it is a shocking joy to be able to enter the playoffs in the first year of rebuilding!

April 25, Madison Square Garden, New York.

The Knicks' final regular season game of the season has come to an end. All the fans in the arena stood up, their eyes wide open, and they stared at the electronic scorer located high in the arena.

"Ten!"

"Nine!"

"Eight!"

"Seven!"

"Six!"

"Five!"

"Four!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

"Zero!"

With the jubilation of the audience, Lamar stepped onto the commentary seat and threw the basketball in his hand high into the air. Fans poured into the stadium from all sides, and the scene was even more exciting than winning the championship. They didn't have to wait long to make the playoffs in their first season of rebuilding, and it was definitely a historic moment!

At this point, no one cares about the outcome of this game, not even who they are playing against tonight. All they want is to celebrate, crazy celebrations, and for the New Yorkers, finishing sixth in the regular season is enough to make them happy.

They don't want to think about the future, it's still too far away for them, now is the time for them to celebrate, and the rest will be talked about later.

The only fly in the ointment is that the team's current roster is incomplete, and the Knicks' most important interior backup at the beginning of the season, Antonio Davis, was not on the scene, but it doesn't matter! Because they believe that it won't be long before Davis will return from injury, and then Lamar will lead the fully staffed Knicks to a bigger stage!

The regular season has come to an end, all the mysteries have been revealed, and all that remains is the more fierce competition.

"Lamar, take a break! Your body will be overwhelmed by such a desperate effort! You were worried to death when I did yoga, but now you are so desperate!" Vanessa said dissatisfiedly, still holding a towel in her hand, as if she wanted to wipe Lamar's sweat.

Vanessa's belly was obviously a lot bigger at this time, and Vanessa looked at Lamar, who was sweating on the training equipment, with a worried face. Since his body returned to normal, Lamar's training has increased a lot, and it seems that Lamar wants to make up for all the training he pulled down.

"Can you be like me? It's nothing to me, the playoffs are about to start, and I've got to set an example to the guys on the team, who hang out in the clubs every day under the pretext of hanging out!"

Although Lamar said it easily, he couldn't see anything in his demeanor, and he could laugh at Vanessa twice, but Vanessa could still feel Lamar's uneasiness.

Vanessa frowned slightly, walked over and pressed Lamar's shoulder, preventing him from continuing to practice: "Lamar, what's wrong with you? I feel like you've been a little abnormal lately!"

"Alright, Vanessa!" Lamar hurriedly said, "What's wrong with me? ”

"Lamar, don't lie to me, we've been together for so long, I still don't know you?" Vanessa seemed to realize something, and said a little funny: "The playoffs are about to start, are you nervous?"

"What do I have to be nervous about? This is the third time I've made the playoffs!" Lamar said as he shook Vanessa's hands away, but Vanessa's actions seemed a bit childish.

"You can't fool me!You're in the playoffs for the third year, but this year is the first time you've made the playoffs with your team, and it's the first time you've been the soul of the team, and you're a little afraid of losing, so you're nervous now!" Vanessa looked at Lamar, who was still trying to quibble, and said her guess without hesitation.

"How do you know?!" As soon as the words came out of Lamar's words, he realized that something was wrong: "How is it!Who am I? I'm Lamar, I'm going to be nervous? Okay! Vanessa, don't you know that a woman is too smart to be good for her family?"

Lamar saw Vanessa's strange expression and knew that it was impossible to quibble, so he hugged Vanessa and said, "Honey! I'm a little nervous, this is the first time I've led the team to play the playoffs independently, I'm afraid I won't perform well!"

At the end of the session, Lamar helped Vanessa to lie down and rest, and then Lamar walked out alone.

"Hey, Jeff, I'm Lamar. Lamar felt that something was wrong with his heart right now and that he should talk to Jeff.

"Lamar, is there anything wrong with calling so late?"

"Jeff, I think I've got a little bit of a problem and want to talk to you!"

"Ahh

"Okay!" Lamar was also well aware of Jeff's nervousness, but Lamar also knew that now was not the time to joke: "I think there's something wrong with me." Lately I've been nervous about the upcoming playoffs, maybe a little bit of a loss!"

Jeff Van Gundy breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a little shame, "You bastard, can't you just say it all at once?

"Really! I'm not kidding, I've been worrying about not being able to sleep lately. ”

Jeff Van Gundy pondered for a long time before saying: "In this case, I guess I have to help you find a psychological counselor! Lamar, in fact, the Knicks have already completed the task of entering the playoffs this season, and neither the fans nor Mr. Dolan will have any other harsh criticism of you!"

"But I can't let go of it in my own heart, I don't want to lead a round of tours for the first time, or even be swept away!"

"Lamar, how is this possible? I think you're just thinking too much!" Jeff Van Gundy obviously understood why Lamar had such thoughts: "Lamar, it seems that you haven't been too idle lately!"

"Is that really the case?" Lamar said, a little uncertain.

"Of course! If the playoffs were to start, do you think you'd still be as cranky as you are now?"

"Probably not?!" Lamar said this with a little uncertainty, after all, he was a human being in two lifetimes and had never led a team to the playoffs alone.

"What should it be? Lamar, what about your usual self-confidence?" Jeff Van Gundy also hated iron a little bit, Lamar was not so fragile in his own understanding!

"Okay, that's it, I want to disturb your rest, Jeff! ”

"Good night!"

As the clock ticked by, so did the start of the playoffs, and the fans of each team that made the playoffs began to rejoice.

Although the Knicks are currently only in sixth place in the East and will lose home-court advantage in the playoffs, fans are full of confidence in the Knicks' playoff prospects.

In contrast to the high morale of the Knicks, other Eastern teams are happy with a hint of apprehension. The reason is: with the return of Lamar, the Knicks have taken the tactics of team basketball to the extreme, although there will be various problems in the game due to the run-in problems, but as long as the Knicks fully adapt to the team's new system, the consequences will definitely be tsunami-level.

Only when you lose it will you know how to cherish it!

Today is the first day of the Knicks' battleship, and when Lamar appeared in the training hall, the Knicks players who had already arrived in advance couldn't help but feel excited, and it seemed that the three-day rest had filled these energetic guys with energy.

During the time when Lamar left basketball to accompany Vanessa, the team was put on a rollercoaster ride. Although the team finally found the right direction and the results began to turn back, during this time, the Knicks players always felt that something was missing around them, and they could only return to 300 percent of their efforts when playing, which made them physically and mentally exhausted.

It wasn't until Lamar came back in the final stages of the regular season that all of the Knicks' problems were solved. With Lamar for the Knicks, they can let go of all their baggage on the court and play with ease. Just pass the ball to Lamar's hand and just play the coach's tactical arrangement to run the position, and the ball will always appear in their hands as soon as they run out of space.

"Hey, Lamar!" "Lamar was happiest to see Lamar, and there was no one in the team who was more happy than Darmster. Since Lamar came back, Haitians no longer have to worry about being kicked in the ass by Alan Houston while teasing,
