Chapter 754
Of course, there is an exception among these rookies, and that is LeBron James. The reason why James is being sought after by Cleveland is obviously justified by the Cavaliers to give up this year's NCAA MOP, and Carmelo Anthony, the league's hottest No. 1 candidate.
James' ability to keep Cleveland out of the crowd under pressure from fans isn't entirely because of his physical prowess and excellent playmaking and defensive skills. What people value most is his sense of teamwork, and throughout his high school career, he can not only get excellent personal data, but also rely on his own strength to connect the team. That kind of control of the game is what drives the management of the Cavaliers crazy!
However, compared to LeBron James's comprehensiveness, Jeff Van Gundy is still stubborn and prefers Carmelo Anthony, because Jeff knows that he already has a more comprehensive Lamar than LeBron James.
Jeff Van Gundy is now in a state of stunt, and looking at Anthony is simply looking at his beloved. And Anthony, after knowing that he didn't have a chance with the champion, has always been full of fantasies about joining the Knicks. The two really had the intention of having a concubine, and now the difference is that at the beginning of the election show, Jeff Van Gundy personally put on a hat with the Knicks logo for Anthony.
Many rookies have flocked to New York like pilgrims, especially those who are strong and have a bit of a top spot.
This makes the training of other teams in the league a bit difficult. On one side, there is a constant flow of traffic, and on the other hand, there are two or three big cats and kittens. Not to mention the owners of other teams, even league chairman David Stern is a little unbearable.
"I know what's going on in those kids' minds, but the Knicks only have three first-round picks at the end of the day. There's no way they're going to wipe out all of this year's rookies! I would like to advise those young people not to delay their futures. They should show their worth to more teams than clinging to a tree, which doesn't do them any good. ”
Stern gave his so-called advice, but it sounded like a fart to the young people. This did not in any way hinder their determination to make a pilgrimage to New York like a carp crossing the river, and among these people there was a young man who was eye-catching enough, Chris Bosh.
It's just that when Bosh came to New York, the expression on his face was obviously a little different from that of other pilgrims, and in general it was arrogant and a little disdainful.
The rookies who came to the Knicks for tryouts looked up to Lamar, a superplayer who had already stood at the top of the league, and even the top picks LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony were no exception.
Although Lamar's indifferent attitude towards Anthony made him a little uncomfortable before, Anthony believes that his strength can definitely convince Lamar to hand over a Knicks jersey.
Of course, this is not the case for everyone, with the exception of Chris Bosh, who arrived in New York for a tryout two days late. Lamar was a star-studded figure standing in front of him, as if he couldn't see it at all, his eyes were only on the opponents on the court and the basket in front of him.
Chris Bosh, who has already been labeled as Garnett Jr., not only has a very similar style of play to Garnett, but also has the same technical characteristics. Although he was not arrogant, it was obvious that there was an attitude of contempt for all beings in his eyes.
"Guys, I really don't like that guy at all, he doesn't seem to look down on us at all!" At the end of the training, Anthony said angrily to his new friend, the Frenchman Michael Petrus, who also came to the Knicks for training: "I really don't understand why he is doing this? If you hadn't stopped him just now, I would have taught him a hard lesson!"
Just now during training, Chris Bosh once hit Anthony hard when he had obviously lost his position, and gave Anthony a sturdy hat without leaving any face.
This made Anthony, who had been living a smooth life since he was a child, unable to accept it no matter what. If it hadn't been for everyone's stopping, there would have been a violent incident on the field just now.
But as soon as Anthony's words fell, the door of the locker room was kicked open, and it was Chris Bosh who Anthony had threatened to teach him a hard lesson just now.
Under the surprised gaze of the people, Bosh walked directly in front of Anthony, grabbed the collar of Anthony, who was half a head shorter than him, and his eyes were cold and a little intimidating, even a big man like Anthony was a little afraid.
"Babyface is the one you said you were going to teach me a lesson with your dirty, ugly mouth?" Bosh's eyes were full of provocation, and it was clear that he didn't take Anthony as the top favorite in his eyes.
Maybe in Bosh's heart, everything Anthony has now should belong to him, so he will challenge Anthony intentionally or unintentionally during these two days of training. He just wants to show people that he can do better than Anthony.
was forced to ask by Bosh like this, Anthony was stunned for a moment. When he reacted, he was ashamed of his cowardice just now. Anthony frowned and turned Bosh away in annoyance: "Stay away from me, you ignorant fellow! That's right, that's what I said, if you dare to be so unscrupulous next time, I'll make you look good." ”
Anthony's counterattack didn't have any effect, but instead made Bosh burst into laughter, as if he had seen a good performance in those talk shows.
Seeing that Anthony was still angry, Bosh sneered, "Are you waiting for me to apologize to you? Or do you think I'm going to be scared in front of you, a doll who hasn't grown up yet? Don't dream! I'm not afraid of you at all, and it seems to me that your proud offense is like a child's play." And you clowns, if any of you think you're better than me, just challenge me!"
After humiliating his peers, Bosh seemed to find it a little uncomfortable, and set his sights on the free agents who came to try out.
"And you, you poor worms who will go to your knees and lick Lamar's chrysanthemums in order to get a ten-day contract, you are a disgrace to basketball players! Look at the fat on your body, and your heart that has long since been extinguished, I feel sorry for you. ”
Bosh mocked everyone with his foul mouth full of, looking at the smug expression on Bosh's face now, as if he were the savior of all people.
"Maybe you should have challenged Lamar more than grind your teeth here with us wretched wretches of your mouth! No one here wants to listen to your nagging, and if you want to prove your greatness, you'd better prove it to us." Petrus finally couldn't help but stand up, and Bosh's rudeness had made it impossible for him to endure it any longer.
Hearing Lamar's name, Bosh was visibly stunned, but then his face was full of disdain, and he sneered and said, "Very good! To tell you the truth, I'm here for nothing other than to beat Lamar! I want to prove to everyone that I'm the best power forward of the new century!"
"Let's have a contest then!"
Before Bosh could finish his words, a voice sounded outside the door of the locker room, and those who were familiar with this voice knew that the bandit leader in New York was already angry.
"I'll be waiting for you in the gym tomorrow, clown! Bring a few more diapers, I don't want the floor of the arena to smell of your pee all over the floor!"
With that, Lamar left. He didn't want to compete with Bosh today, in order to convince Bosh, a rookie, to lose, and not to say that he had a physical advantage after losing.
It wasn't until Lamar's footsteps faded away that the locker room regained its life. The people looked at Bosh with mockery, as if they had seen the decadent appearance of Bosh after being repaired by Lamar.
A hint of panic flashed across Bosh's face, but it was quickly replaced by a powerful confidence. He never felt worse than that megalomaniacal Lamar.
In fact, everyone here idolizes Lamar, with the exception of Bosh, because Lamar has always been a clown who likes to play tricks on the court in Bosh's eyes, and the truly great inside lineman should always be like Tim Duncan. Lamar, on the other hand, has humiliated his idol this summer, and he wants to seek justice for Tim Duncan against Lamar, the shameless clown.
The next day, the training hall was not as lively as the previous days, but there were more people. There were seventy or eighty rookies and free agents who came to try out, and standing in the center of the field were the owner Lamar and the challenger rookie Bosh.
"Rookie, you don't have a chance to regret it!" Lamar gently tossed the basketball in his hand: "Decide the right to attack, as long as you can throw this ball at the free throw line into the basket, let you attack first." ”
Lamar threw the basketball to Bosh after saying that, and his strong self-confidence made the basketball that was thrown out at random look full of power, so much so that Bosh couldn't help but stumble when he received the ball.
This also caused a burst of laughter from the people around them, they had long seen that Bosh who was full of feces was not pleasing to the eye, and they were naturally very happy to see him make a fool of himself.
Bosh didn't know what to do with the basketball, and stood on the ground hesitantly looking at Lamar. Bosh obviously felt the sneering gazes of the players around him: Damn! What right do these guys who he once looked down on have to laugh at him, they cowards don't even have the courage to challenge now!
Bosh, who felt like he had become an authentic clown, was furious, and the little dragon claws holding the basketball were also bruised.
