Chapter 123: The End
The Knicks lost Game 4, and the New York fans were naturally disappointed by the fact that the Knicks lost Game 4, but it was probably not a big deal, because no one thought they would win, especially after watching O'Neal's crazy performance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The only thing that surprised them was that in the case of Ewing's limited appearance, someone finally stood up in the Knicks' interior line, although it was not to the point of being equal to O'Neal, but it also played well, with 26 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists, and Mo Xi made his voice heard in front of O'Neal.
This set of combination punches came out, and it seemed to open the door to a new world for Mo Xi. In the next fifth game, in the face of O'Neal, Mo Xi actually cut 30 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists plus 2 blocks and a steal, but it was this game, Mo Xi was pressed to the ground by O'Neal and rubbed hard, played 36 minutes and was hit by O'Neal with a Taishan top hit six fouls, and went off the court early, and O'Neal, who played the whole game again, cut 40+ again, got 41 points, 12 rebounds and 2 assists, and the Lakers also won their fourth victory in New York, in Charles" Get your wish" in New York to win the O'Brien Cup.
O'Neal was full of satisfaction to lift his "FMVP" trophy, and with the All-Star MVP trophy that came from Duncan this season, O'Neal became the first single season MVP winner after Jordan.
The winner was celebrating wantonly, the loser was dejected, and he retreated into the locker room, of course, not all, one person remained, one person stood in the Knicks' tunnel and watched the entire award ceremony.
A Madison Square Garden staff member passed by, a little strangely, and asked, "If you want to see it, why don't you come up a little more?" ”
The man said, "No, one day, I will be the one standing on it." "Turn around and walk deeper into the players' tunnel.
This person is Mo Xi, he reached the finals in the first two years of his career, and played as a starting center on the stage of the finals.
After this game, Van Gundy told Mo Xi the news that the Knicks management might want to trade him and Ewing, and Mo Xi listened, and his eyebrows jumped, thanks to the management of New York just received the news and did not send it, otherwise, the Knicks may really have reached the point of losing before the battle. But what's going on here?
If Mo Xi is a player who has been in the league for many years, plus a basketball school, he will inevitably form his own social circle and news channels, but it is obvious that Mo Xi can only step into the league for two years, and those who know and know each other are only a few players of the same age in addition to the Knicks players, and Mo Xi is really a real rookie in this regard.
After hearing the news that he might be traded, Mo Xi suddenly felt bad in his heart, you know, he just played the best games of his career in New York, on the home court of the Knicks, at Madison Square Garden, and he was the best interior player in the Finals in the Knicks, and even Mo Xi unceremoniously said that in the next season, he may even pry Ewing's starting position. But now, the Knicks want to trade him? What's more, he just fought for the Knicks, and there is no credit and hard work.
Murphy rushed to the confusion, admittedly, going to Boston hardly saw any harm to him, think about it, a team that is in the process of rebuilding, there is no strong center in the team, plus this team has the same long history, and even surpasses New York in various honors, although people say that Madison Square Garden is the holy place of the league, but in comparison, the Green Army and the Purple Shirts are really the "famous families" of the league, New York is just a guy who eats by guarding the ancestral heritage. Although it is a circle of pros and cons that have been analyzed, it is beneficial and harmless, but Mo Xi is always a little irritable in his heart.
Mo Xi had to inform his agent Bill Duffy of the news first, Bill Duffy did not seem very surprised by the news, he told Mo Xi that the news is indeed true, and it may even become a reality, Bill Duffy seems to be able to understand Mo Xi's current mood, and comforted him and said: "Actually, Mo, I understand your current mood very well, I think you must have such a plan at the beginning of entering the league, to dedicate your entire career to a team, In the end, even when you retire and walk on the street, there will always be people who recognize you, greet you, point at you, and say to the children around you, look, this is our hero, Mo Xi, he has guarded this city for many years, many years. ”
On the other end of the phone, Mo Xi nodded silently, at the beginning, who didn't enter the alliance with full of enthusiasm, and wanted to use his own hands to create a prosperous miracle like the Bull Dynasty, but in the end, who can really get to this point?
At the beginning, Mo Xi's biggest dream was probably that one day, when he was gray-haired, he would take his grandson back to Madison Garden Square and point to the flags flying above the arena, and proudly say to his children that that was what Lao Tzu fought for.
It is a pity that I forgot that few of the best centers in history have died on the first team, and even few people in history have enjoyed such treatment.
At this time, Bill Duffy said again: "Moreover, you don't have to take it to heart, you know, the deal is just a prototype, it has not been finalized, no one knows what James Dolan thinks, this person, you are still young, you don't know him, even among businessmen, he is a very temperamental person, he seems to have known that Auerbach and Phil Jackson have set him up at this time, so even if there is a piece of meat in front of him, he may not bite." ”
Mo Xi smiled, the team owner is really an unattainable name for him, but now listening to Bill Duffy say this, I think this is still a flesh and blood person. Mo Xi said again: "By the way, well, if there is really news about these aspects at that time, I will ask you to deal with it." ”
Bill Duffy, who was on the other side of the phone, looked stunned and asked, "What are you going to do?" The jungle of the Amazon? Three months to be gone? "Bill Duffy's agent career has been started for less than a decade now, and there are many things that Bill Duffy has to do himself, and Moxi's arrangement will undoubtedly lead him to do a lot of things this offseason.
Mo Xi touched his head and said, "Actually, I just went to Washington, D.C., and you know, I sometimes, maybe, um, be isolated. ”
The two talked about some other topics, and then put down the phone.
No matter where you go, life always has to go on, not to mention, this trip, listening to Bill Duffy, it seems that he may not be leaving, James Dolan is really a stubborn guy.
