0632: [Too clever to calculate]
The origins of the two sons brought great joy to Li Zhen.
He even began to plan the future life path for his two sons.
"Lee En should be a lawyer."
"Leon can be a professor."
Lee Jin doesn't want his children to continue to be athletes. Generally speaking, it is difficult for the stories of Lao Tzu's heroes to appear in professional sports, because they did not have the process of growing up savagely, and their wealthy families lacked the tenacity of athletes.
What's more, with Li Zhen's current net worth, his son can be a rich man for the rest of his life even if he doesn't do anything.
After the Knicks won two straight at home, Lee Jin finally took off for Orlando. When he left, he was very reluctant, and the two infant children made him lose some of his freedom.
So, it also adds to the swaying in his heart.
The idea of leaving New York began to take over.
It's time for him to think about his family.
β¦β¦
The Orlando Magic is just too good to play.
Monster Howard has never figured out why he plays abnormally every time he meets the Knicks, and he doesn't have the appearance of the league's best center in the East No. 1 blue collar at all.
Gasol Jr. and Zach Randolph made him a famous Shaanxi food... Meat buns.
Stan Van Gundy saw Li Zhen returning, and he didn't even crouch on the side of the court to command...... Doesn't make much sense.
The teams in the East, the Atlanta Hawks, the Orlando Magic, and even the Cleveland Cavaliers, they were all beaten by the Knicks without a temper. They didn't even have the heart to resist.
This is even more terrifying than the East ruled by Michael Jordan back then!
So, in the end.
People still have to give Isaiah Thomas a thumbs up.
Because the lineup assembled by the Knicks is really the most inexpensive, cost-effective, and the most special team that can conquer the East in history.
It's crazy!
"Strictly speaking, the Knicks now even have four All-Stars, and seven or eight players who are close to All-Star. They're still improving... And there is no chemical conflict, completely united by Bruce's side. β
"The Knicks are already kings of the East, and what's even more terrifying is that they won't be able to stop them. The only thing that can break them up is the salary space...... When the rookie contracts of players such as Gasol Jr., Dragic, Eric Gordon, and Gallinari expire, the Knicks will definitely not be able to offer contracts that match them. β
"But, at least for the next two years, the Knicks remain the most competitive team in the East." Charles Barkley analyzes on television.
But in fact, in the first half of this game, the Knicks didn't play so well.
After Li Zhen joined, Phil Jackson still promoted the triangle attack, forcing Li Zhen to press on the strong side and let him play with his back alone.
This is equivalent to asking Zhang Fei to embroider.
Li Zhen's singles ability is more than self-preservation, but it is simply too difficult to let him take the initiative to break the defense line.
So, it was Orlando who took some chances, which led to a bit of a see-saw game.
But as in the second half of the second quarter, Li Zhen and Dragic teamed up to accelerate, and the game was completely in the direction of the Knicks.
Another victory without any suspense.
Li Zhen was even a little tired.
After the game, I didn't even take a shower and hurried back to the hotel to communicate with Los Angeles video, no matter how cold the man was in front of the child, he couldn't help but say Overlapping: This situation will continue at least until the child goes to elementary school.
However, with Li Zhen's current situation, he may remain in this state for the next ten or even fifteen years.
Because, Mary Olsen secretly told him that she had begun to prepare for pregnancy.
If the news spreads, the other blues girls will definitely not sit idly by. When the time comes, there will even be a vigorous baby boom.
Li Zhen is a little big.
That's why he didn't mention what he was doing when he returned to the team, and he took a leave of absence for personal reasons.
Actually, this has made Jerry West a little bit of a mustard.
He is worried that Li Zhen's mind is no longer all about basketball, because the whole world knows that Li Zhen's investment in the past few years is forming crazy returns.
Facebook's current market capitalization alone would have earned him a place on the Forbes list. Moreover, Facebook has already begun to promote the IPO, once Facebook, a unicorn-type super Internet company, goes public, Li Zhen's wealth will naturally surpass the boss of the Portland Trailblazers...... Paul Allen is only the third-largest individual shareholder of Microsoft, and Bruce's stake in Facebook is second only to the founder.
That's Jerry West's concern.
Because for Li Zhen, even the top salary in the NBA is not worth mentioning. But for any team president, this is a super risky investment.
In case, Li Zhen indulges himself from now on and is content to become a billionaire, and the team will be ruined in the next ten years.
The NBA has a salary cap.
And the young people of the Knicks are all so strong, and each of them has an annual salary of tens of millions.
Jerry West had a headache, he felt that the good name had been taken away by Isaiah Thomas, and the headache was left to him. It's a gorgeous mess.
Fortunately, the Knicks won both games in which Li Zhen left.
This seems to be proof... Another thing, the success of the Knicks is not only because of Li Zhen personally, but also because of the strength of the entire team.
And the strength of the team seems to indicate another problem......
Jerry West came up with a bold and terrifying idea.
The thought flashed away.
He quickly dismissed.
All of New York City treats Lee Jin as a basketball hero if the Knicks don't renew Lee Jin's contract. So... Jerry West, the general manager, will definitely step down, and no one can tolerate such a stupid thing happening.
Even if Li Zhen doesn't come to the team every day in the future, or becomes a big fat man, at this moment, the Knicks should unconditionally send a contract extension.
But Phil Jackson suddenly didn't think so.
Li Zhen has become his inner demon.
He realized that the biggest challenge he had experienced in his career was Li Zhen.
In the past, any superstar under his hands, he could easily handle it. Even Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant are obedient to him.
Moreover, even if there are sometimes awkward troubles, he will use some locker room means to make the players feel disgusted, such as the collapse of the OK combination, it is difficult to say that there is no role for him to 'adjust' in the middle. And, Michael Jordan and General Manager Kraus became inextricably linked back then, and he also had a share of the credit.
It is very likely that Phil Jackson's course in Oriental culture was not pure Zen Buddhism, but an imperial mind that played with power and scheming.
However, when it came to the Knicks, it didn't work at all.
He can't provoke anyone, and the Knicks locker room is in a league of its own.
As long as Li Zhen is willing, he can even make Jackson command not to be able to command the tactical board.
Moreover, he knows how to play tactics himself, he stands on the pitch and directs in three or two to put the team into efficient winning mode.
This makes the players have no respect for the coaching staff.
I even think that the coaching team is just an ornament, or a tool to add details.
If you are a new coach, you will definitely like to stay in such a team, because it can greatly improve your practical ability, and the player team also has its own tactical error correction function, which can make young coaches grow rapidly. Good web
But Phil Jackson is different, he has achieved fame and has a lot of honor in his hands, why do he still want to be a faΓ§ade?
He came to the Knicks to further prove that he not only has the ability to manipulate the tactics, but also the quality of managing the team.
If the series with the Atlanta Hawks exposes the irreconcilable contradictions between him and Li Zhen.
Then the first two wins against the Magic add to Phil Jackson's ambitions.
He wanted to put aside Li Zhen and show his strength.
Li Zhen has become an evil dragon in his heart.
He needs to slay the dragon in order to fulfill his last ambition in life.
Although, now the Knicks are already a championship team. But this championship team has nothing to do with him.
For careerists, that's the hardest part.
β¦β¦
In the end, the Orlando Magic didn't make it to Game 5.
Because they ran into the impatient Li Zhen.
Li Zhenzai didn't have the kung fu to play any tug-of-war with them, and he led the team to storm out in the fourth game.
In his opinion, it doesn't matter what tactics you use, what matters is to take out the opponent cleanly.
Under his leadership, the Knicks made a bold move, and they were extremely violent, and they easily clocked out in three and a half quarters.
The media shouted that the wolf is coming!
The invincible Knicks are back.
ESPN even played: The Knicks used the entire regular season to prove that the triangle offense was not viable, and when Bruce raised the tempo, the invincible team raised its iron hooves again!
Reports like this make it especially exciting for Knicks fans.
Because, who doesn't miss last season's unbeaten team from the All-Star break?
16:0 swept to win the championship, how cool!
Who wants to have a few more flaws on their trophies?
It's just that Phil Jackson is sad.
He worked hard all season and it turned out to be useless.
This once again deepened his prejudice against Li Zhen.
He even told reporters in a post-game press conference: "I don't know where Bruce went. Since the playoffs, he has always been elusive and alone. All we know is that he asked the team leader to buy him a ticket to Los Angeles. Maybe it's because of some family matters to deal with. After all, you know... Jack Lee ......"
At this point, he made a deliberate pause.
For the laughter of the scene.
The news that Jack Lee gave birth to a younger brother for Bruce has long been a joke in the NBA, and many rival teams will even use it to play banners at home to stimulate Lee.
It is obviously reckless for the Zen master, as the head coach of the Knicks, to say such things at this time.
This made Zach Randolph, who was sitting next to him, fight back on the spot.
"Where is Bruce going, he's the leader of this team, and we just swept the Orlando Magic under him. You guys should give him enough respect! β
After saying this, Zach left the table angrily.
And on the plane back to New York, he was very unceremoniously angry at Phil Jackson: "Others can ridicule this, but you can't." You have to remember that you're not the Lakers head coach right now, you're in the same league as us. Even, you are still our leader. Don't let us think you're an outsider. β
Randolph angrily blamed Jackson.
This is even shared by the players.
Everyone thought Jackson's behavior at the press conference was too reckless.
For the first time in his life, the Zen master received a collective boycott from the players.
He was silent.
β¦β¦
The Knicks' triumphant march gave Boston a great sense of oppression.
This year may be Boston's last onslaught for a championship, with the Big Three getting older and Kevin Garnett even suffering from injuries that have led to a dip in strength this season.
But fortunately, the team quickly brought in two other veterans, Rasheed Wallace and Michael Finley, both former All-Stars, who are still doing well.
If this lineup still does nothing this year.
The Big Three, consisting of McHale, would then be the most failed and anticlimactic rebuilding effort in NBA history.
So, they showed extra urgency.
However, the Chicago Bulls, a new force in front of them, are trapping them in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
Thibodeau is probably the person who knows the Celtics' defensive system best: in fact, the Celtics' defensive system was built by him, and Rivers knows a fart defense, he's a chicken soup maker for the soul.
And, Derrick Rose still plays a vital role in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
His super-striking power became a serious test for the old McCeltics.
While the Celtics have always been able to drag the game to a stalemate, Derrick Rose has always been able to create lightning-fast divisions.
When the Knicks won 4-0, Boston was still preparing for the Battle of Kings Mountain.
No one knows what the outcome of this series will be.
However, the Eastern Conference Finals have long been decided.
No matter how you look at it, the Knicks, who are stronger this year than last year, can't afford to lose to either the Celtics or the Bulls.
Because, the Knicks are younger than the Bulls. More Finals experience than the Celtics.
Interestingly, Derek Rose spoke in front of the media again.
"Bruce gave me a lot of advice, which helped me a lot in structuring the Celtics' defense!"
As soon as these words came out, many people suddenly became enlightened.
It turns out that this year's spoiler Bulls was actually set up by Bruce.
Poor Cleveland, who thought that his slippage to fourth was a clever trick, was immediately hacked to death with a knife.
The Celtics thought they had climbed to the first place and sat back and relax, and now, they are being dragged into a battle to the death.
In terms of strategy, it's still Bruce Li Gaoming.
He drove the tiger and devoured the wolf with this hand, and he was really clever in treating his work with ease.
Boston and Cleveland thought they were taking advantage, but in fact they were in a bitter battle.
The Knicks thought it was a difficult journey, but it turned out to be a smooth road.
It can be said that the agency was too clever and missed Qingqing's life.
