O'Neill was really angry with Richard.

He felt that Richard had been targeting himself and bullying himself!

When Richard first entered the league, he used shark-cutting tactics against him, and later used it for many years in the Trail Blazers, causing them to miss a lot of championships.

In tonight's game, Richard was obviously in a situation where strength prevailed, but as a result, he used the shark cutting tactic again, and it was strange that O'Neill was not angry......

Coupled with Richard's yelling at him for being useless, O'Neill had the idea of fighting hard with Richard at that time.

But he also knows very well that if he really wants to fight, he will definitely suffer, didn't he see that the Pistons and the players all looked at him viciously?

It is estimated that after rushing up, it must be difficult to defeat four hands with two fists, this is not just four hands, dozens of hands are estimated to be able to beat themselves out......

As a result, the Zen master Jackson came to pull the rack, and he found a step down and followed the Zen master back to the locker room.

O'Neill's "rebellion" just now startled Richard, he didn't expect this fat man to be so irritable......

He had fought with the players, but against the harmless-looking white dwarf Stockton......

He was a little dwarf, but he was certainly much taller than Richard, and that time he was almost belched by Stockton's elbow.

If this is caught by O'Neill, it is estimated that Richard will have to be admitted to the emergency room......

……

"Coach, why don't you find a chance to beat that fat man next time?" Clark asked in a low voice.

"That's right, we have one more chance to play the Lakers this season, and it's our home court!" Gerald also spoke.

Richard hurriedly waved his hand, he couldn't fight, he couldn't fight!

Their last game with the Lakers was just around the corner of the playoffs, and if they did fight, they would inevitably face a ban......

If O'Neal, a historical-level supergiant, is really beaten, it is estimated that the league will definitely be heavily punished, which will definitely affect the playoffs of the Pistons!

"No, this fat man is not a bad person, he just made a little noise!"

"I'll clean him up when he's in the east." Richard said with a smile.

Everyone looked at each other, will O'Neill come to the east? It seems unlikely......

How could you stay so well in the Lakers come to the East?

The generals felt that Richard must be joking.

……

The conflict that was about to erupt was completely subsided, and the reporters left the stadium in a huff to prepare for a press conference.

Richard didn't bother to attend, and asked Miles to take the players to the press conference, and he went straight back to the hotel.

They have one final game left on their road trip against the New York Knicks.

Yao Ming said before that his parents and his partner Ye Li would go to New York for a visit and wanted Richard to help get a few tickets......

Richard naturally wouldn't shirk this kind of trivial matter, and after returning to the hotel, he called Knicks head coach Don Cheney directly.

It just so happens that the Knicks have a game tonight, and Don Cheney certainly hasn't slept yet.

Don Cheney is a veteran head coach, at least much longer than Richard, and he began coaching the Los Angeles Clippers as a head coach in 84.

However, although the teaching experience is very long, it does not have any presence in this league, often three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, a team stays for two or three years before being fired, and then it takes several years to find a team to join......

It's been almost twenty years since '84, and he's only been in charge for eleven seasons.

If it weren't for Larry Bird's relationship, Richard would certainly not be familiar with this Don Cheney.

"Hey, Don, do me a favor, the game the night after tomorrow, help me find three tickets to the front row." Richard was not polite, for in his opinion it was a completely inconspicuous matter.

If someone else asks for help finding a Piston ticket, he will accept it.

"Okay, I'll give you an answer tomorrow."

"By the way, we have to save some face for our Knicks in this next game......" Doncheney said with a smile, and he didn't pay much attention to the little things like tickets.

……

But in the evening of the next day, Doncheney had a sore egg.

No more tickets......

This is a little embarrassing, I promised Richard last night that I would get him a ticket, but now there is no one ticket.

The Knicks' ball market is quite good, and ticket sales are booming, especially the upcoming game against the Richard Pistons, which has long been sold out......

Knicks fans have an inexplicable reverence for Richard, as long as Richard comes to play, the scene must be full of people.

"Bernie, do me a favor and see if we can squeeze out a few tickets, this is the ticket Richard wants, God, if you don't give it to him, he'll tear up our Knicks." Don Cheney was on the phone with the team's ticket manager, and his tone was quite painful.

"Don, there's really no way about this, even if you tear me up, I can't find a ticket, but I can find a few tickets in the marginal position, but if this kind of ticket is given to Richard, I guess he will be even more angry." Bernie, the ticket manager, was also helpless.

Doncheni sighed and hung up, his head aching.

How can this be explained to Richard......

Richard's temperament is like a mad dog in Don Cheney's eyes, catching whoever bites whom, this time the ticket matter is not done, and Richard can't guarantee that he will not go on a killing spree at Madison Garden.

"Lee, I'm really sorry, the tickets are already sold out...... Doncheney hurriedly called Richard to inform him of the incident.

Richard was stunned, no votes?

How can this be explained to Yao Ming......

But he didn't get angry with Don Cheni, after all, he was begging someone to do something, and people didn't do it, so what was the matter with getting angry at people......

"Okay, Don, there's nothing to be sorry about, Knicks tickets sell out fast, and I know that." Richard said with a smile.

This made Don Cheney breathe a big sigh of relief, originally he thought that Richard would be furious, and then take the Pistons to fight the Knicks at Madison Garden Arena......

"Li, it's good that you can understand, I'm really sorry about this matter, next time if there is such a thing, at least say it half a month in advance, so that we can leave you a ticket as soon as possible."

Richard nodded, "Okay, got it, Don, I still want to thank you this time." ”

……

After hanging up the phone, it happened that Yao Ming and the others also went back to the hotel, and Richard told Yao Ming about the situation.

Yao Ming was naturally a little disappointed, but he could also understand it, after all, it was not that people didn't give it, but they really didn't have a ticket, so he could only blame himself for saying it was late.

……

At Madison Garden, tonight's Pistons game against the Knicks is about to begin.

Richard appeared on the stage and chatted with Don Cheney for a while, and the two sides were in harmony.

Don Cheney breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Richard's attitude, he must not have taken the matter of tickets to heart.

If you don't take it to heart, then you can at least have a peaceful night tonight.

……

"Doot toot!" The referee blew the whistle for the start of the match.

The starters from both sides began to take the field.

The Knicks are completely depraved at the moment, especially the interior position, which is simply empty......

A Harrington plus a Kurt Thomas.

This Harrington is not Al Harrington, but Ocella Harrington, and it is estimated that his strength can be stronger than one El Harrington if the three are tied together......

As for Kurt Thomas, who entered the league in 95, he can be regarded as a veteran now, and his strength is okay.

Of course, it can only be said that it is improvised, and the strength can only be said to be a qualified starter, and if it is placed in those strong teams, it may not even be able to start.

With such an inside combination, unless Richard is stupid, he will definitely catch the opponent's inside line.

As soon as the game began, Yao Ming received Nash's high lob ball, and the basket was easily dunked.

The main thing is that the two inside lines of the Knicks, none of them are tall, one is 208 cm, the other is 206 cm, Yao Ming didn't even jump much, and stood on tiptoe and came directly to a standing buckle.

It was the Knicks' turn to play the offensive round, and to the helplessness of Knicks fans, Kurt Thomas directly contributed two blocks to Clark in this offensive round.

First, the mid-range shot was blocked, and then his teammates picked up the ball and passed it back to Thomas, this time he didn't make a mid-range shot, but broke through, but was intercepted by Yao Ming under the basket, and was rewarded with a pegboard hat by Clark behind him.

At this moment, you don't have to think about it to know that Knicks fans erupted in earth-shattering boos.

This boo is not for Clark, but for the Knicks players......

Playing in the Knicks, you have to have this kind of awareness, the awareness of being booed by your home team fans.

Even Ewing the gorilla was booed, and how could Ate Thomas be spared.

……

Richard was excited to watch from the sidelines, and his biggest wish now was to get Clark to brush up on his block stats and win the title of block king before the end of the season.

……

By the end of the first quarter, Doncheney was dumbfounded.

It's over, how does this game feel like it's going to be completely ruined tonight?!

In the first quarter, the Knicks scored 22 points, but the Pistons scored 37 points, directly playing a 15-point difference in a single quarter.

What's even more terrifying is that Yao Ke and the two scored 32 points!

Yao Ming scored 22 points in a single quarter, and Clark scored 10 points and 4 blocks in a single quarter!

It's time to die, Doncheni felt dizzy, and tonight night will definitely not be calm.

"Clark, you kid try to get as many blocks as you can."

"Especially in the face of such a weak team, it is even more important to be a snack on the block data!"

"If you can get the block king this season, then I guess the best defensive player won't be able to run, work hard and strive to have a good season." Richard didn't hide it, and said directly to Clark during the break, in front of the generals.

Clark nodded, if he can really get the best defensive player this season, then his season will really be a success.

All-Star starters, block kings, best defensive players, best defensive team.

To receive such an honor is a grand slam for a blue-collar player.

……

In the second quarter of the game, Yao Ke and the two continued their super hot performance, which directly shattered the Knicks' inner line.

At the end of the half, Yao Ming had already recorded 40 points, 7 rebounds and 1 block.

Although Clark's scoring data is far inferior to Yao Ming's, the data also looks quite exciting.

17 points, 8 rebounds and 7 blocks, almost hitting a triple-double in the half.

You must know that Clark hit a super data of 8 blocks in the last game, and looking at this posture tonight, the block data will definitely not be less than eight!

You might even really make a triple pair of caps!

……

The whole Madison Garden arena was in mourning, and the stronger Richard's team became, the more unhappy these Knicks fans were with Knicks management.

Especially dissatisfied with Don Cheney, in the eyes of Knicks fans, if the Knicks could have gotten Richard instead of letting Don Cheney take the position, I'm afraid the Knicks would have been able to take off completely.
