Chapter 66: Pierce's Revenge?
In Boston, a two-story villa worth more than $2 million, Paul Pierce is pouring himself a drink at the bar on the first floor.
The veteran, who has worked hard in the NBA for more than ten years, looks a little haggard, drinking brandy while using his laptop and not knowing what to look at.
"Idiot! A bunch of idiots! This group of idiot fans online! Saying I'm old? Say I was beaten by Mike George and couldn't fight back? And said that if it wasn't for KG's help, I would have been beaten even worse? This bunch of idiots! Who gave them the right to talk nonsense like that! ”
Pierce was so emotional that he casually threw out the wine glass he was holding in his left hand.
At that moment, a man pushed the door open, carefully snatched the unbroken handle of the cup with the base of his middle and ring fingers in a very graceful manner from the mess on the ground, and raised it in his hand.
Outside the house, the sunlight poured in through the cracks in the windows and doors, and the light shone on the already broken glass, and the man seemed to admire a work of art, and said, "You see, Paul, a good thing, even if it is broken, is still a good thing, and may not be as perfect as it was before, but its quality will not change in any way." ”
Pierce was already a little drunk, and didn't hear the meaning of the white man's metaphor, and when Pierce saw him, he quickly took out two more short-legged wine glasses with wide bellies from the wine rack: "Jeff, come and have a drink with me." ”
It was Pierce's agent, Jeff Schwartz, who was also Deron Williams and Kidd's agent.
Schwartz walked over to the bar, placed the "mutilated artwork" in his hand on the bar, looked at Pierce, and verbally declined Pierce's invitation to drink, saying, "I'm not used to drinking brandy so early, Paul." ”
Then, when he saw the laptop in front of Pierce, he hurriedly stretched out his hand and put the notebook on the case: "You shouldn't look at those boring remarks, it's my job." ”
Pierce smiled helplessly, holding a cup in his left and right hands, and said, "Jeff, maybe I'm really old, otherwise how can I not even teach the worst players in the league?" ”
Schwartz sighed and said, "I guessed that you have been thinking about things with Mike George, in that case, I will introduce you to someone." ”
Pierce was a little surprised, watching Schwartz walk from the bar to the door, only to find that there was a man standing on his lawn outside the door, he knew that Schwartz was coming, but he didn't know that Schwartz had brought a stranger.
The strange man looked around as soon as he entered, perhaps amazed by the luxurious decoration, but Pierce frowned, because the man didn't seem to have seen much of the world.
Schwartz brought the strange man to Pierce: "Let me introduce you, this is Dr. David Wellman. ”
"Doctor?" Pierce shook the other hand's hand politely, and then looked at Schwartz, "I was just punched by Mike George, although that guy's fist is really strong, but it is not enough for you to call a doctor for me." ”
"You misunderstood, Mr. FMVP, I'm a psychiatrist and I'm here to help you." David Wellman smiled.
“FU1K YOU! You're mentally ill, get out of my house right now! Pierce was a little drunk, and when he heard this, he instantly became angry.
Schwartz hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Paul, listen to me, he is not here to treat you, but to help you avenge, his wife works in the same company as Mike George's adoptive mother. ”
Pierce calmed down for a moment after hearing this, and then said angrily: "So what? What I hate is Mike George, what's the matter with his mother? Do you want me to do anything to his mother in private? FU1K! When has Lao Tzu ever done such a lowly thing! You are insulting my character! ”
"Calm down, calm down." Dr. David Wellman didn't think Pierce was mentally ill, and now it seems that he wants to take him back to the hospital for treatment, "Mr. MVP, we never meant that, his mother is very nice and has a good relationship with my wife, we never wanted to hurt his family, I just wanted to help you do something to make Mike George lose face." ”
Pierce became sober: "Since your wife has such a good relationship with his mother, and you still come to hurt her son, you must be here for money, then don't beat around the bush, what are you going to do?" That guy punched me once, and then rode on top of me, if it weren't for KG, I would have been punched a second time by him in front of tens of thousands of people, and he humiliated me so much, if it was just an ordinary small revenge, it would never be enough to vent the hatred in my heart. ”
The doctor seemed confident in his revenge plan, and with a devilish smile, he said, "Then I'll be blunt, my solution is to make everyone think he's sick." ”
"Sick?" Pierce didn't interject and waited quietly for the doctor to explain.
"Yes, there is a disease, and a lot of athletes are sick in my opinion. The great Michael Jordan, you admire his unparalleled sense of competition, and I think it's because he suffers from 'XYY chromosome syndrome', which is the so-called 'superandrogen syndrome', because he secretes hormones and male hormones in a much higher amount than ordinary people, so he has such a strong competitive attitude. ”
Pierce gave Wellman a blank look, the great god of basketball was said to be like this, and Pierce was very sure that he was 100% a "patient" in his eyes.
Wellman continued: "There is also a common disease, Yipu disease, also known as pitching amnesia, which you should have heard of, in the 1995 finals, Anderson, the leader of the Magic team who shot more than 70% of his career free throws, lost four consecutive free throws at critical moments, which directly led to the Magic finally failed to win the championship, and since then, he himself has ......."
When the doctor said this, Pierce finally couldn't hold it back, put down the wine glass heavily, and said, "If you talk about illness, talk about illness, don't talk about basketball in front of me!" That year, the Magic team was swept by the Houston Rockets! You actually said that Anderson caused the magic to fail? What a thing is he! Can I influence the ownership of the championship?! ”
When Wellman talked about the medical side, Pierce didn't dare to interject because he didn't understand it himself, but when it came to basketball, he could tell that Wellman was completely.
In the 1995 Finals matchup, one of the key figures was Pierce's current teammate O'Neal, who was really miserable when O'Neal met the peak Olajuwon that year, and he averaged four points less than Olajuwon per game.
However, the third-year O'Neal was already considered excellent, and it was not he who really caused the loss, but their teammates, O'Neill only had "Penny" Hardaway by his side at the time, and Olajuwon was surrounded by "Glider" Drexler, Robert Horry, Kassel and many other good players.
Wellman swallowed his saliva a little weakly, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense, and went straight to the point: "You and I both know that Mike George is a good boy in his basketball career in high school and college, he never takes the initiative to cause trouble, and even his family is curious about the abnormal performance in the last few games, so we can say that he suffers from some kind of mental illness, and I'm sure he does have this mental illness, otherwise all this can't be explained." ”
Speaking of this, Schwartz also smiled and said: "Once the media reveals that Mike George has this mental illness, then once he does it on the field in the future, everyone will no longer regard him as a hero who acts bravely, but as a poor patient." ”
Pierce suddenly felt a chill in his back, he knew very well that George didn't have any mental illness, just a hot-blooded and aggressive guy like him, but once he did this, everyone would look at George with colored glasses in the future, and treat George as a different patient from normal people......
The scene was silent for a few seconds, and Pierce suddenly spoke: "Doctor David Wellman, listen, the dispute between me and Mike George on the basketball court, we will settle it on the basketball court, I will not maliciously slander him outside the basketball court, the next fight, whether he is beaten to the ground by me, or I am beaten to the ground by him, these results, I can accept these results." Now, please get out, you won't get a penny from me. ”
