After Stern took the helm, the alliance began to be commercialized, which gave rise to a controversial topic, loyalty and betrayal. www.biquge.info The loyalty of the players to the team, the loyalty of the team to the players, everything has changed dramatically, and although everyone is now almost used to such a business league, there is still a lot of concern about some transactions and signings, of course, these are mainly for the team leaders and future stars. At the beginning, New York almost traded Ewing away in exchange for O'Neal, which was undoubtedly a good deal both then and now, but New York gave up in the end, because the pressure from the fans was too great, and even forced away the Hall of Fame-level coach Nelson.

Today, on the land of Detroit, the New York Knicks are undoubtedly a big villain. It was still in 1993, Alan Houston, who had just entered the league, was considered by the Detroit people to be his hopeful star, and he was greatly cultivated, and then he got Grant Hill a year, and in the third year, the combination of these two people was praised by the media, many people thought that the era of Detroit was back, and such a pair of talented and powerful combinations gave Detroit people great encouragement, but there is often such a thing in life, but, after the rookie season, Houston came to the Big Apple despite the retention of his hometown fathers, where he became the captain of the team.

"Bang"

Another tomato smashed on the bus where the Knicks were sitting, Mo Xi's face was pale, even in the finals, he had never seen such a scene, but the old god Houston was sitting there, looking at the tomato soup on the window, and said: "It seems that Detroit's economic downturn is real, the last time I used eggs, now I can only use tomatoes." ”

Mo Xi looked at Houston with a frightened face, he really deserved to be a man who could be killed, what a big heart.

Sprewell quipped, "I guess that's one of the reasons you left Detroit." ”

"Yes, I decided to go to New York because it's a big city, and because I could make more money in New York," Houston said. "Houston doesn't hide his desires, and that's the case for him, life is definitely a lot more important than basketball, and how many people in the entire league don't go back and think about that?

Houston's bluntness silenced the people in the car for a while, and Mo Xi couldn't help but think of Ewing, a King Kong-like man who wanted to win a championship for New York, but now, he was in a very awkward position, counting last season, Ewing had not been on the team for a long time.

Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became heavy, Sprewell inadvertently changed the subject, and Sprewell said: "It seems that the rest of us don't have to worry about it today, and the anger of the Detroiters will probably be accepted by you then." ”

Houston smiled and said, "Probably, it's like this every time anyway, and at first I was still very nervous, but now, I feel like I can face it with dignity, and if they don't let me go, then I can only say sorry and cut off thirty points on their heads." ”

Although Detroit is no longer the bad boy army of the past, it still has good defensive skills, and scoring 30 points here is no less than the sense of accomplishment you get 40+ or 50+.

Sprewell laughed exaggeratedly, "Wow, that sounds funny, why don't we make a bet on your thirty points." ”

Johnson also came over to join in the fun, saying: "In this case, I will come too, I will bet 50 dollars, and I can't press Alain." ”

"Ten dollars, Houston can't."

"Five dollars, no."

"Twenty, no."

What made Houston sad and indignant was that as the captain, these guys were so faceless, everyone thought he would score thirty points, and he said angrily: "Damn, if I can't, I'll treat you to the Peninsula Hotel!" ”

As soon as Houston's voice fell, there was silence in the car, and Johnson and Sprewell pulled Ward and Charles to whisper, and Mo Xi could faintly hear things such as "Give him less passes, don't be too obvious...... At the last second, it will be passed to him...... Forcing him to make a mistake ......"

Van Gundy, who was sitting in the front of the car, had a black line, is it really good for you to say so loudly in front of the coach?

No matter how inflated the Knicks were before the game, there was one thing that all of them had to pay attention to, this was Detroit, this was the Palace of Auburn Hills, and this was a place where even the Qiao gang leader who had not yet completed the eighteen palms of the dragon was to be hated.

When Houston stepped off the bus, almost instantly, the boos around him suddenly rose several levels, and Houston frowned when he heard it, which made him feel bad. Houston doesn't feel that his original choice was wrong, Detroit does attach great importance to him and intends to cultivate him carefully, but is Detroit really a good choice for him? Houston never thinks he's wrong.

Even in the arena, the anger against Houston was still everywhere, even on the faces of the staff at Auburn Hills.

Houston was silent, which made the Knicks a little worried, worried that something would get out of hand on the court, and this was the Auburn Hills Palace. Van Gundy has been talking to Johnson, and seems to be constantly telling the other party to pay attention to the situation on the court and control the emotions of both sides, although the Knicks are known as the "gangsters", but after all, the era of the real "New York Gangs" is over, and Van Gundy does not want to reduce the team at the beginning of the season because of these other factors.

Johnson is a good fighter, but he also knows some measure, he will never allow his teammates to be hurt, the first battle between the Knicks and the Heat was fought because of this, this situation must pay attention to the situation on the court, once there is a real accident, Johnson will definitely stand in the first place, of course, the conflict should be reduced as much as possible.

The Knicks are in a hurry, and the Pistons are a little excited, losing Houston, but the Pistons got Jerry Starkerhouse, and his scoring ability is not inferior, even surpassed, and his back-to-back jumper is amazing, but to be honest, in this period of the league, almost every good scorer has a very good back-to-back jumper, just like today's three-point destiny. (But to tell the truth, excluding efficiency, in fact, fans are really willing to watch the back-to-back single jump shot, and now there are only a few people who can have such a hand)

Jerry Stackhouse, despite having such and such faults, does not like teamwork, but Stackhouse's offensive ability is something that no one can underestimate, before that, the Pistons lost two in a row, Stackhouse has a lot of pressure, and he also needs to prove himself.

Grant Hill, who was favored with Houston at the time, actually didn't feel much about Houston's departure, in fact, whether it was his style of play or personality, Hill was also incompatible here, and after having Stark House, Hill's status in the team was also greatly affected, and he probably chose to leave Detroit after this season. But now, he still fights for Detroit to the end.

The Knicks entered, Auburn Hills was completely boiling, there was abuse everywhere, Houston kept moving his hands, he knew that tonight, there was bound to be a life and death here, and he would be the one standing.
