Chapter 818
"Big medicine, we won!" Francis was also overdrawn and sweating like rain, and now he had some difficulty even speaking, but his face still had the joy of victory.
The name of the drug turned back to Francis and grinned, "That's right, boss!
After the fatigue of consecutive away games, coupled with the slight enemies of the whole team, the Knicks finally tasted the consequences. The winning streak since the beginning of the game would have made many of the league's giants wail, and people seem to see that the Knicks will dominate the league.
Whether it was the San Antonio Spurs before or the new powerhouse Toronto Raptors, they all fell in front of the Knicks. People didn't dare to expect Houston, who had a bad record since the new season, to stop the Knicks' progress, but things are so strange, what the Spurs and Raptors failed to do, the Rockets actually did.
"To be honest, I'm very sorry for the outcome of the game, but this is basketball, and no one knows what will happen until the red light comes on at the end. There's no denying that the Rockets did a great job, they focused on the court and everyone played their part. This is very important!"
"Whether it's Jim Jackson, or Steve Francis, or Jumai Howard, they're doing a great job. Of course, their biggest change is to establish the core position of the drug name, and no one expected that Princeton's tactics could raise the overall strength of the Rockets to such a big level. ”
'On the contrary, we made a lot of mistakes in this game. Before the game began, my teammates and I got a little carried away under the bombardment of your rambling news. I don't want to deny that I didn't think the Rockets were going to cause us any problems before the game started, so we were punished. It's very bad!"
"But even though we lost, the season is still long and we still have more than 70 games to play. I think we'll learn our lesson!"
Lamar's tone sounded a little serious, but understandable. Lamar was annoyed by the fact that he had lost the game, and what made him even more unacceptable was that the team had lost to one person. Although Lamar also admits that the name of the drug is a very strong opponent, this cannot be a reason!
Chris Anderson and Nechilario are still young, but they have all established themselves in the league. It's these guys who are praised by the league as the hope of the inside, and when faced with the name of the drug that is not outstanding in physical talent, they seem helpless and powerless.
After returning to New York, Lamar announced on the same day that tomorrow's rest would be canceled, and the whole team would gather for practice. Although Lamar's approach was somewhat overbearing, none of the Knicks players who lost the game objected. It can be seen that they lost the game and ended the winning streak, and their hearts are not comfortable.
The more exciting thing for them is still to come, although Lamar has a hunch that after the end of the winning streak, those clowns who are not willing to be lonely will definitely jump out and attack him and his team, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.
"They finally lost! In fact, I had a premonition that one day, a crazy team would eventually choose a crazy way to die, and no one could stop it. Of course, I don't think they could stop it, and the Knicks' decline was inevitable. No, they weren't strong at all, and now they're just going back to the old routine, losing in a row, complaining incessantly, and then competing for the top pick. That's what happened to them, and I'm sure by the time next summer, you'll be able to see the New York Knicks in the lottery section of the draft. ”
Ever since Lamar had caused him to lose a bet to Sir Barkley, he had started the history of Black Lamar. Kenny Anderson seemed to stick to Lamar like a universal glue, and every time the Knicks were unlucky, he would jump out and yell a few words. It's as if if if he didn't come out and play such an unlikable role, people would forget about him.
However, although Kenny Anderson roared fiercely, no one wanted to listen to such words as much, and now everyone knew that this guy was preparing a way to go to the dark. And as one of the parties, the Knicks also habitually chose to ignore it, they don't have the energy to compete with a fool, if they have time, they would rather spend time on training to strengthen their strength and prepare for the next revenge.
The Knicks' next opponent is the San Antonio Spurs again. I don't know how the Knicks' schedule is arranged in the league this season, but in short, the teams they have faced since the beginning of the game are all too strong.
First the Spurs, then the Raptors, then the Rockets, and now the Spurs. The league arranged it as if it was deliberate, deliberately allowing the Knicks to spend heavily at the start of the new season. If the league's top brass is really satisfied, then by Christmas, the Knicks will be dragged down by this heavy and difficult schedule.
The Spurs have long been blacklisted by the Knicks for a must-win. Whether it's the grudges between the two teams or the bullshit incidents that occurred in the finals last season, every time these two teams collide, it turns into a hot scene of Mars hitting Earth.
Back at their home at&t center, the Spurs also held back their strength to teach the Knicks a hard lesson and avenge the fiasco in the last game. What's more, they can't afford to lose, they really can't afford to lose! As the defending champions, they can't afford to be beaten by last season's championship rivals in one season.
The Knicks are strong, and they really felt it in the last game. But just lost a crucial game, will the Knicks be affected?
Just when people were still talking about the Knicks' first loss of the new season, new blows followed. The league, which had been silent about Darmsport's injury at home against the Spurs, finally issued a ticket before the Knicks played the Spurs away.
Prior to this, although the Knicks repeatedly wanted to communicate with the league, mainly David Stern, but Stern rejected all of them. The old Jewish man didn't seem to want to have any contact with the Knicks at all, but the League, which has always been resolute, showed a slow attitude in dealing with Dampoter's injury incident, which still gave the Knicks a glimmer of hope.
During this period, although the league's punishment has not yet been officially settled, Darm Porter is still eligible to play for the Knicks, but both Van Gundy and Lamar agreed to ban Darm Porter on the team, in order to make a good gesture to the league, hoping that this will allow the league to reduce the punishment of Darm Porter.
Although Darmsport has only played a few games for the Knicks this season, his strong rebounding ability, fierce defense, and passionate performance on the court still broke the hearts of New York fans for the Haitian giant. The Knicks naturally did not want to lose such a starting giant, and tried their best to intercede for him.
But in the end, all the Knicks' efforts came to naught. Even though Lamar has expressed his willingness to work with the league to promote its activities in Asia, these efforts have not stopped the league from punishing Dampoter.
With a 22-game ban, such a penalty is not very serious for Anderson beating Bruce Bowen on the court. But if you consider the causes and consequences of this incident, it is not without room for recovery. It's a pity that the alliance obviously didn't take into account what happened before this incident.
In addition to the 22-game suspension, Dampotter has a lot of trouble to face. For example, he is now in danger of being incarcerated, and Bowen's injury has been released by the Spurs after a hospital examination.
Left rib fracture, minor concussion, and the leg that Lamar had previously broken appeared to be in trouble. In short, Dampotter is in big trouble this time, and if it is serious, he may even face jail time.
Knicks owner James Dolan has publicly stated that he will support Darm Porter this time, and no matter how far the Spurs want to make this matter, even if it goes to the Supreme Court, the Knicks will not sit idly by.
The team has just ended its winning streak, and one of the big players in the squad is facing a lengthy ban. The Knicks really made matters worse!
When Dampoter's penalty decision was announced by the league, it immediately caused an uproar. Banned for 22 games, this means that the Knicks face a very serious test at the center position.
Grant Hill and Devin Wade are injured, Dampot is suspended, and the Knicks' original full rotation roster now has nine players left. The rest are crooked melons and cracked dates that can't be put on the table!
Compared to the absence of Hill and Wade, Dampoter's suspension is a huge blow to the Knicks. It's not that the Knicks are unavailable at the center position, after all, the Knicks can play the center position now with Hilario, Anderson, Wang Zhizhi and Davis.
However, Anderson's defense is more than enough, the offense is insufficient, the Brazilian is too young and inexperienced, Wang Zhizhi's strength is limited, Davis is short in height, and his condition has not been good since he recovered from injury. This made the Knicks, who have always been strong and strong on the bench, also face the dilemma of panic.
The Knicks were unlucky, and the joy was naturally their next opponent, the Spurs. Originally, the two teams had an inextricable deep hatred, and now seeing that the Knicks were unlucky, the hearts of the Spurs players were dark.
"People used to accuse us and put the name of a terrorist on our heads, and I think now people should understand who is the villain! If you want to, you can go to the hospital and see Bruce, and to be honest I couldn't help but cry when I went to see him yesterday. 2k reading network
