Chapter 460: The Exchange Between Houston and Lamar

They lost a complete game at home to the Minnesota Timberwolves that night. Alan Houston, who replaced Lamar as the core of the team, had a strong performance of 25 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in direct conversations with Szczebiak. But he was ineffective in organizing the team's offense and response, and in the end, the Knicks had to accept a crushing loss.

Alan Houston looked very frustrated after the game, and in an interview with reporters, he expressed his hope that Lamar could return as soon as possible and continue to lead the team forward.

"Today's game was a disaster for us, without Lamar, we were tied to anything, we couldn't play to our strengths! It's all too bad, hopefully he'll be back soon, without Lamar we're like a fishing boat without a compass, with no direction and no goal!"

Alan Houston said very emotionally in the face of reporters' interviews, this second-in-command who has been living under the protection of Gorilla Ewing is not capable of leading a team at all, not to mention surviving under Lamar's wing for more than half a season, everything is covered by Lamar for him, and now once he encounters a storm, his spirit is immediately crushed.

In this regard, the wolf king Garnett also said: "Lamar is too important for the Knicks, we did win today, but it was not the Knicks who won. Without Lamar, this team is just a soulless shell! I think if Lamar can't get back on the court as soon as possible, it's really hard for the Knicks to make a difference this season. Of course, I personally really hope that Lamar can come back as soon as possible, because the league is a lot less fun for him. ”

Lamar didn't return to the game as quickly as they had hoped, and for a long time he would have to stay in the hospital to take care of Vanessa and the little life in her belly, and he didn't want to lose his first child since his rebirth because of his mistake. He had experienced this kind of pain in his previous life, and he didn't want to repeat it!

During the time that Lamar was in the hospital with Vanessa, the Knicks' record was also a mess. After losing to the Timberwolves, they have suffered back-to-back defeats against the Chicago Bulls, Phoenix Suns, and Detroit Pistons. It was only in the subsequent home game against the New Orleans Hornets that he won the opponent through overtime and finally defended his home field.

At this time, the Knicks also fell from third place in the East, surpassed by the Philadelphia 76ers and Toronto Raptors, and fell to fifth place, and Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers were in first and second place.

During the time he left Lamar, the Knicks appeared helpless. At this moment, the air defense alarm has been sounded over New York, for the Knicks and for Lamar!

In Lamar's manor in New York, Lamar is giving Vanessa a massage according to the doctor's instructions. Away from competition and training, Lamar now surrounds Vanessa every day. Lamar was terrified, terrified that his first child would repeat what happened in his previous life - dying! Every time Vanessa did yoga, Lamar would be terrified.

"Okay, Vanessa, that's all for today's yoga training!" finally got through until the yoga instructor spoke, announcing the end of Vanessa's training today.

"Well, okay! thank you, Kate!" Vanessa stood up a little breathlessly.

When Lamar heard Vanessa agree, he immediately collapsed to the ground, panting and relieving his breath for a long time before he stood up with his body propped up. Although Lamar was just watching from the sidelines, the inner torment was not so easy. As the saying goes, the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry!

Seeing Lamar's appearance, Vanessa and Kate both covered their mouths and laughed: "Lamar, you don't have to worry about this, right? Yoga is good for Vanessa and the fetus, and I am very experienced in this regard!"

"Yes, my dear, Kate is a famous yoga instructor!"

"Doesn't I care about you? I'm not familiar with yoga, can I not worry about seeing your body bent like this?" Lamar said with an angry look when he saw Vanessa teasing herself.

"Lamar, it's unbelievable to see you now? Now you don't have the domineering spirit of scolding Fang Xuan on the court, you're just a good gentleman, is this still you?" Kate was obviously surprised to see Lamar's appearance, is this still Lamar? will be jealous, funny, and shy. He even rolls his eyes from time to time: "Hahaha!" Kate laughed out loud thinking about it.

Lamar was also speechless about the two women: "Am I bad like this? The stadium is the stadium, and the home is home! ”

"Vanessa, is this the legendary dual personality? How did you fall in love with this guy?" Kate looked at Vanessa who was sitting next to Lamar in disbelief and was about to start abusing the dog: "Count me asking in vain, it's not that a family doesn't enter the door! I really can't stand you, I'll leave first!"

After speaking, Kate didn't look at the two who had kissed together, picked up her things and left in a hurry, unconsciously speeding up her pace when she left.

"It's time for the whole team to practice, why did you come to my house?" Lamar was also curious about Alan Houston's sudden visit.

That's right, sitting on the sofa at this time is Alan Houston, the king of the pitch. Ever since he came to Lamar's house, he had been drinking coffee and sitting on the floor silently without speaking.

Seeing Lamar coming over, Houston smiled and said, "I'm here to see Vanessa, and by the way, I'm here to care about my teammates!"

"Caring about your teammates, do you mean me?" Lamar laughed at Houston's words.

Lamar sat down next to Alan Houston with a butt on the wall, took the coffee handed over by the king of the pitch and took a sip: "How is it?

Alan Houston angrily snatched the coffee and put it aside, but was soon amused by his childish behavior: "You knowingly ask, are you gloating when you see the team like this?"

Lamar smiled faintly: "Alain, to be honest, I've been with Vanessa these days, every inch of the way. I haven't paid attention to anything about the team!"

Alan Houston didn't answer, but asked, "You really haven't watched the Knicks' game lately?"

Lamar shook his head, it's not that he doesn't care about the team's recent situation, the key is that Lamar is afraid that he can't help but want to return to the team after watching the game. He knows best where he is on the team, and it's not an exaggeration to say that the Knicks are his personal domain right now, and Lamar is not at all surprised that the team will collapse if he doesn't play.

"The team is terrible right now, I can't stand just training with them every day! Samuel, in particular, is now like a with a sad face all day long, and there are other people who are not very good, and it is like the end of the world is coming to leave you. The more Alan Houston spoke, the more angry he became, and he almost scolded!

It's no wonder that the always elegant mid-pitcher king is like this, for him Lamar is at most a teammate, and a more serious one is a foreign intruder. Lamar's absence from the team has no effect on him, the earth is playing basketball, and he is still living his life. But now the team is almost filled with such a pessimistic atmosphere, especially Arenas, Bobby Simmons, and other inexperienced little boys.

Lamar shook his head and didn't say anything, to be honest, he was unhappy and regretful about the current situation of the team. Billups and Alan Houston, who had high hopes for him, were not able to carry the team's banner after their departure. Especially Billups, he is the engine of the piston of later generations, the real nucleus!

"That's what you're here to tell me today!whining or complaining?" Lamar was silent for a long time, breaking the silence in front of him.

"Isn't that enough?" Alan Houston shouted, standing up and glaring at Lamar, "Don't you really care about the way the team looks now? Or did you never think of the Knicks as your home?"

Lamar looked at the angry mid-range king and was not angry, and said with a wry smile: "You have let me down! I always thought that the Knicks were our team, the team of all of us! The Knicks not only belong to me, but also to you, and Chauncey, and even everyone! Even without me, the strength of the Knicks is not bad, but why is the team in this situation now? A team like this can still hope to compete for the O'Brien Cup, Allan, tell me, can you?"

"So you know what the Knicks are doing, right?" asked Alan Houston, confused.

"Do you think there are still places in the world that are not covered by the news?"

Alan Houston finally quieted down and sat back down: "The team is terrible right now. They don't even have the desire to fight, all they think about is messing around until you come back!"

Saying that, Alan Houston stopped and looked at the ceiling, and after a long time, he said, "Lamar, I'm not a qualified leader, I hate the feeling of failure!"

"I hate failure as much as you do!"

"When are you going to return to the team?"

Lamar listened and subconsciously glanced in Vanessa's direction: "Not yet. The doctor said that one or two months of pregnancy is the most critical time, and at least half a month has to wait. I don't want to be in misfortune with Vanessa's first child!"

Lamar doesn't want to hide anything from Alan Houston, who is not a qualified leader, but is one of the few smart people on the Knicks team with a sensitivity that most players don't have.
