0429: [One bad news, one good news, Isaiah]
"I didn't even sweat much."
In his post-game press conference, Zach Randolph stressed: "If I had to rate my Knicks debut, I would only give 60 points. Just passed, after all, the opponent... You know, it's just the defending champions in the East. ”
What do you say...... Hiss!
Isaiah Thomas next to him gasped, you can force it so full with one mouth, how will I pretend later?
"51 points? Isn't it remarkable? My grandmother scored 51 points on 37 shots in a basketball game at a community nursing home. Randolph continued to face reporters' inquiries with a very arrogant attitude: "The data of not winning is meaningless. James lost to Bruce again, which is really nothing to fight about. ”
"If you ask me who is stronger Bruce or LeBron. My answers 10,000 times are all Bruce Lee. Zach said affectionately: "The only Bruce Lee in the world." ”
These words made the hanging hearts of the New York reporters and Chinese reporters in the audience finally settle down, and there was no need to worry that Zach Randolph would become a cancer that hindered Li Zhen's growth, and he was already one of the many fans of the Knicks.
Subsequently, Isaiah Thomas began his pretending.
"I've never had a fixed tactic." Isaiah Thomas, when asked why there were so many tactical changes tonight, replied: "Because once you have a fixed tactic, the opponent will make a move. And what we do is simple, ahead of the ideological boundaries of the opponent. I call it philosophy. ”
Forehead....
Reporters never dreamed that in their lives, they would be able to listen to a sports escort student who did not graduate from college talk about philosophy conclusively.
However, Isaiah's bearing is very natural, smooth and chic.
"Bruce is certainly a genius, and he has a better understanding of tactics than many mediocre coaches. Sometimes, I just need to make eye contact with him and he understands all I have in mind. Isaiah Thomas said without changing his face and without a beating heart.
Zach next to him admired his psychological qualities.
'I'm not going to stay in charge of the team, that's D'Antoni's job. I'm now working on a new book, The Art of Trading, which I hope will be helpful to future NBA general managers. This is perhaps the most precious legacy I have left to the world. ”
Isaiah Thomas said it very emotionally, and he got into the play.
Li Zhen frowned, he soaked in an ice bucket, watching the interview on TV.
Why is it just floating?
Philosophy? The art of trading? Just the Eastern Conference champions?
Cowhide can still blow like this!!
Li Zhen was convinced.
But McBrown, who came next, was clearly not convinced, insisting that the loss was due to the lack of defense on the guard line, giving Lee too many opportunities to shoot easily. At the same time, he also stressed that there has been a deep reflection within the team and that they will take action in the future.
He even left a hard sentence at the end: "Never underestimate the heart of a champion." ”
Champion?
Lee Zhen thought about it for a while before he realized that what McBrawn was trying to say was the heart of the Eastern Conference champions.
This is also a forced king.
Compared with the content of these people's interviews, Li Zhen's answer when he was interviewed by a courtside reporter after the game was simply low-key and terrifying. "I hope the debate over the summer is over because of this game, and Cleveland should also know that the New York Knicks are never losers in front of the Cavaliers."
"I have a lot of respect for LeBron's accomplishments, he's undoubtedly the best star in the league. But sorry, I won again. ”
"If you're not convinced, we'll do it all over again."
Li Zhenru's smile was displayed on James's notebook, and the little king even angrily threw the Apple notebook into the aisle of the bus, scaring the whole car into silence.
James was very depressed.
He didn't have the joy of a 51-point triple-double at all.
He repeatedly carved painful memories and Li Zhen's smug face on his pituitary gland.
Why? I'm the chosen one, why do I keep losing to him? I'm stronger!
"We have to make a change! All teams are getting stronger, so why can't we do a great job of bringing in reinforcements? Isn't our general manager as good as Isaiah Thomas? ”
James' anger finally turned into an accusation on the bus.
And his accusation is like a thunderbolt in the hearts of all management, and they must hurry to carry it out.
Everybody knows it's James' team. His popularity is even greater than that of the team owner.
His words are will.
The so-called words follow the law, and that's probably the case.
……
While the Cavaliers' uniform team frantically sought a trade plan, Lee and Randolph practiced at Stamps.
Although Zach kept emphasizing: Why should I train here with you.
But when he watched Eddie Griffin's grim face doing all kinds of boring repetitive strength exercises without hesitation, he didn't have much to say.
Zach is a jerk, and bastards are inherently in awe of jerks who are more assholes than themselves.
Compared to Zach's past gun theft, alcoholism, drug abuse, and brawls...... and so on, Eddie Griffin is much more ruthless, this is a ruthless person who is famous in the road for being irritable, and even kicked his girlfriend out of the house with a gun after his cheating was discovered.
"I feel like we can make a Knicks version of the Big Three, and they're all in vogue right now." In addition to training, Zach did not forget to talk about the current landscape of the league. He counted on his fingers, the Nets next door are the Big Three, Boston is the Big Three, the Spurs are the Big Three, the Mavericks are actually the Trident, and the Lakers are not also the Big Three.
"So, why don't we claim that?"
Zach thought his offer was great.
But he didn't get the feedback he wanted.
Eddie Griffin is pitifully lacking in words now, and he would rather blow the saxophone than talk nonsense.
Bruce, on the other hand, answered the phone.
Gisele Bundchen actually invited him to her house party tomorrow night, and when Li Zhen was still hesitant to agree, Zach grabbed the phone: "Hey, we'll definitely rush over." Listen, I'm Bruce's best friend, and his second friend, Eddie Griffin, going to the party. Are you ready? If you need some NBA superstar signed basketballs, we can get them ready right now......"
When Zach Randolph took it upon himself to agree to the offer, and hung up.
Li Zhen looked helpless.
Eddie Griffin finally spoke, "Why are you Bruce's best friend and I'm only the second friend?" ”
All right.
Zach raised his hands, you're Bruce's number one friend, I'm just number two.
He didn't want to argue with the monster Griffin about the order of his friends: I'm not Swift's idiot who smeared mustard in sandwiches.
He's happy now: he can go to the supergirl party tomorrow, and he's decided to bring the latest panties he's endorsed.
"The team will be off tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. It will be another two days before the next opponent arrives, it seems to be the Seattle SuperSonics, which is nothing to worry about at all. Zach continued: "There's no reason Isaiah Thomas shouldn't allow us to do that, unless he wants me to debunk the art he trades on TV. ”
Forehead....
Li Zhen was convinced.
He finally understood why Isaiah Thomas had messed up the team's run before: a general manager like him, who was in charge everywhere, it would be strange if the locker room didn't collapse without a superleader.
……
Isaiah Thomas was happy to take a two-day sabbatical, and he didn't hesitate to agree to Zach's request to party. Young people? If you want to go out and have fun, it's okay, let alone go out with Bruce, he's very relieved.
Now, he's focusing on Thomas.
The 6-foot-9" tall Thomas, who was drafted by the Miami Heat with the 10th pick in the first round in 1995, is a defensive expert with a good instinct for rebounding, as well as a consistent free-throw and mid-range shooting. He spent seven stellar seasons with the New York Knicks, and in 1999, he created the Black Eight Miracle with the team, reaching the Finals in one fell swoop.
But in 2005, it was taken by Isaiah Thomas to trade Quentin Richardson.
At the time, the Knicks were in a very chaotic state of mind. Kurt Thomas did not forget to stab Isaiah Thomas when he left, and he released the transcript of the conversation between the two to reporters.
Isaiah Thomas: Cotter, good news, bad news. Which one to listen to?
Cott Thomas: Bad news.
Assassin: We're going to transfer you to the Suns for Richardson.
Kurt: Okay, I see. And what about the bad news?
This joke became the beginning of Isaiah Thomas's ridicule by the group.
Now, the smiling assassin turned serf and sang, of course, taunting back.
Coat-Thomas has been a homeless man since he left New York and has now moved to Seattle.
"The biggest problem with Coatthomas's is that he doesn't have a long-term vision, he thinks he knows everything, but he doesn't really know what good news is and what bad news is. If you turn back the clock, guess Quentin, would it be good news? ”
Thomas sat in his office and said to Sports Illustrated, who had come for an interview.
And, he pointed to the plaque that had been hung overnight last night. This is a Chinese afterword: it is rare to be confused.
"That's what I'm going to do in life, and a lot of people used to ridicule me, abuse me and even humiliate me, but I don't care, I don't justify. I just be silent and use time to speak. ”
"Now, people are singing my praises and praising me, but I'm still light."
"Was I angry back then? No, I'm not angry. I'm just sorry... Why does Kurt think that's bad news!! ”
The smiling assassin spoke to the reporter.
He is fashioning himself into a legend.
Just then, his phone rang.
He graciously said, "Excuse-me," and pressed the speakerphone.
At this time, his assistant's voice sounded rapidly: "Isaiah, now there is bad news, a good news, which one do you want to listen to first?" ”
