"Coach George Ricard, could you please give us an interview?" Ricard walked to the tunnel in a huff after the game. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 But this group of reporters who are holding back their stomach with questions will not let Rickard get away with it easily.

"If you have any questions, ask!" replied Ricard, impatiently.

Seeing that Rickard was so angry, the reporters were even more excited. Rickard is angry, which means that there must be something wrong between him and Anjie!

"With two minutes left on the end of the game, we saw you and Ann seem to be arguing on the bench. Since then, Ann hasn't played again. Excuse me, did you not let him continue the game because of the reason he had an argument with you?" The reporter did not beat around the bush, and directly threw out the most sensitive question, and it is also the answer that everyone wants to know the most.

Ricard rolled his eyes and shook his head. "I'm the head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers, and I don't have to let a player play, so I don't need to explain to you why. ”

With that, Ricard walked into the players' tunnel on his own. Only a group of reporters were left, staring at the back of this fiery leader in amazement.

"Ann, Mr. Ann!" Unable to dig anything out of Ricard's mouth, the reporters naturally all gathered around An Jie. Neither Garnett nor Pierce were so popular as the winners of this match. Those who don't know think that the Trail Blazers have won 28 in a row.

"Your winning streak was ended today, what do you think caused it?"

'The Celtics played better than us, we were so tired and we really needed a break. An Jie replied calmly.

"Do you think you would have been able to turn the tide if Coach Ricard had brought you on the pitch at the last minute?"

"The tactics and rotation of the team are carefully designed and thought out by the manager. The manager didn't let me play, there must have been a reason for him. All I have to do as a player is to obey. I believe that he didn't let me play in the end and it was the best option for the game at the time. Although An Jie was very angry in his heart, he was not stupid. After all, after so many years with Ricard, the relationship between the two is extraordinary. Even if there is a conflict, it has to be resolved behind closed doors. Anjie didn't want to exacerbate the conflict, and put it on the table.

"Well, like I said, we're really tired. If you can, please interview the winners. If there are any questions, we will talk about it at the press conference. After An Jie finished speaking, he tried his best to squeeze through the crowd and left the court.

It wasn't until An Jie left that the protagonists here finally became Garnett and Pierce, who were fighting at home.

An Jie pushed open the locker room door, and he was the last to arrive due to being surrounded by reporters.

It was very quiet in the dressing room, and it was eerily quiet. Everyone looked up at Angel as he pushed the door in, including Ricard.

Time froze for a few seconds, and everyone in the locker room stared nervously at the two staring at each other.

However, Riccard didn't say anything, he turned his head and went about his business. Anjie didn't pay attention to Ricard, and just sat down in front of his cabinet by himself.

"We did our best, guys, don't get too discouraged. An Jie began to comfort his teammates and also broke the awkward atmosphere.

"Who's going to go to the press conference with me?" Rickard also began to ask after Anjie finished speaking. But this time, he didn't take the initiative to call An Jie.

Seeing that his teammates were all focused on An Jie, An Jie had to express his position.

"I'll go, I'll go. An Jie's tone was reluctant. Divac shook his head, the atmosphere in the Trail Blazers' locker room had never been so tense.

At the press conference, the reporters naturally asked a lot of questions about the quarrel. But Ricard and Anjie's answers are understatements.

Not answering questions positively has its advantages, but it also has its disadvantages. The good thing is that the contradiction between the two will not intensify and will not be made public. As for the disadvantage, reporters who don't have accurate information will make up the whole story in their heads, and then publish the information that is not true in newspapers, websites, and news.

God knows if it weren't for the exaggerated hype of the Los Angeles media, Kobe Bryant and O'Neal would have broken up in the end. What sports journalists are best at today is not to uncover the truth, but to fabricate "facts".

Although the Trail Blazers' winning streak was ended, their 27-game winning streak was good enough that losing one game was not painful at all. So right now, people don't care about the end of the winning streak. They focused their interest on Angel and Ricard.

After the loss to the Celtics, the Trail Blazers will get the coveted four-day break. Divac doesn't know if the Trail Blazers will be able to return to normal in these four days. Physical factors are trivial, and if the generals are not in harmony, the problem will be serious......

....................

Every NBA team will have a star in charge. This star is usually the most comprehensive guy in the team and the most effective helper of the head coach.

However, when the two strong roles of the star and the manager are intertwined, there is bound to be some friction. Whether the head coach is the authority or the star of the house is the authority has not been decided until now.

Back then, there was a conflict between Iverson and Larry Brown, and Zen master Phil Jackson once accused Kobe Bryant in a book: "Don't teach." O'Neal has also complained that Riley is training him to death, and that almost all superstars can't get along with great coaches forever.

With these examples in front of them, reporters can naturally make a big play. So the two hottest news in basketball circles the next day were that the Celtics ended the Trail Blazers' winning streak and continued to end the Rockets' 22-game winning streak, successfully becoming a veritable "streak terminator".

The second news is that the good relationship between Anjie and Ricard has finally been shattered. Of course, the disillusionment of this statement is just speculation by the reporters themselves. Because they didn't get any useful news from Angel and Ricard. So all the news published today is not 100% true.

In fact, when he woke up the next day, Anjie regretted that he had hit Rickard.

"What's so hard about this, you've been playing under him since college, apologize to him, what's this. Catherine really can't understand why the relationship between men is so complicated and so simple.

"But...... How am I going to say that...... Anjie now understands that yesterday Ricard was just trying to protect himself and plan for a bigger championship fight. Because even if the Trail Blazers surpassed the Lakers' 33-game winning streak and didn't win a championship in the end, it didn't make sense.

And his own health is directly related to whether the Trail Blazers can win the championship.

It's just that the enthusiastic players in the game are already irritable, and An Jie's competitiveness is at work at that time. That's why he was so angry and confronted Rickard.

However, it can be seen that Riccard is not serious with Anjie, he is just sulking. After all, being cultivated by himself and being confronted by players who are like father and son with him really hurt Ricard's heart.

If Ricard was really angry, he wouldn't be silent, but would use all the dirty words in the world to scold Angel for blood. But Ricard didn't do that, because he knew that a conversation between men could settle all this unpleasantness.

It's just that Anjie and Ricard, two guys with strong personalities, are unwilling to take the initiative to bow their heads.

One day, two days. Two days have passed, and Angel and Ricard still haven't spoken a word. Divac could only shake his head helplessly when he saw all this, as a bystander, he could not do anything about this kind of thing. Only Angel and Ricard themselves were able to solve the problem.

Seeing that the atmosphere of the team is getting more and more wrong, and the morale of his teammates is getting lower and lower, An Jie can't stand it. As a team leader, as the source of all this bad influence. An Jie decided to let go of the burden and deal with the problem that had to be solved. So after the next day's training, Anjie took the initiative to knock on the door of Ricard's office.

"Please come in. ”

Seeing that the person who walked in was Anjie, Ricard was a little surprised.

"What's the matter?" was Riccard's first sentence to Angel in a few days.

"I ...... I want to talk to you, sir. ”

Ricard smiled in his heart, at this moment, he didn't need too many words, he had already forgiven An Jie. He understands An Jie, and An Jie understands him. But this guy still has a serious look on his face. "Tell me, what do you want to talk about?"

"About ...... day"

"Alright, don't talk about it. Talking like a, it's disgusting to death. Rickard began to swear, which meant that the brief estrangement between him and Anjie had completely disappeared.

"I'm sorry, boss, I just wanted to win the game. ”

"There's nothing to be sorry about, we're all here to win games. I have to apologize to you, after all, it was you who played with injuries to set the record. I don't have the right to take it away, I'm sorry. ”

An Jie was surprised, he didn't expect that the strong Riccard would put down his body and apologize to himself.

"It's not a record I've set, chief, it's a record we've set. An Jie smiled, and this smile also represented the complete disappearance of the rift between him and Riccard.

Yes, sometimes the relationship between men is very complicated, but sometimes, it is as simple as that. A few simple words, a few expressions. is enough to reconcile the two men who were originally opposed.

However, after a quarrel or even a fight, the relationship between the two men who got along from each other will only be more stable!

"You know what? Now it's said that we have a conflict. There was even a newspaper that said that I openly reprimanded you as an idiot on the training ground. When the relationship between the two warmed up, the reports on the market seemed to Ricard and Anjie to be ridiculous.

"When we continue to win the next game, they should understand what our relationship is really going on. An Jie is in a good mood, the suppressed emotions, the pressure of the winning streak, and the burden of physical fitness have all been swept away in the past few days.

With a relaxed physical emotion, An Jie really can't wait to show his skills in the next game.

The 27-game winning streak was ended?the Trail Blazers had internal conflicts?The unstoppable Trail Blazers finally fell?

Whatever you say, anyway, An Jie is ready to make everyone's jaws drop.

Feb. 27 will be the Trail Blazers' final game of the month of February.

The Denver Nuggets, led by George Carr, will be a weapon to test whether the Trail Blazers have truly fallen.

But now, looking at this demon master and apprentice with a face full of anticipation...... We can only wish Denver the best of luck.
