In the midst of applause, Li Wei waved his hand, and then when the Wizards served, he decisively fouled and replaced himself.

It was enough to show off, he didn't think he could really fight against these people.

This is the end of Li Wei's first game. In less than a minute on the court, he scored two points and one foul on 1-of-6 shooting, in addition to grabbing five frontcourt rebounds.

Snatching the ball back from behind the hat is counted as a frontcourt rebound, so Li Wei will have the capital to brag in the future - I played against the tallest player in the NBA, and grabbed five frontcourt rebounds in a row in less than a minute, so I asked if you were afraid!

Of course, as a player, his playing time is gone, but as the manager of the team, the game has just begun.

After the Knicks' main point guard Charlie Ward came on the court, the two teams played a slow-paced positional battle.

Big Z was a little uncomfortable at first, but he only resumed confrontational training last month, and Muresan was too tall, and he rarely encountered this kind of guy who was half a head taller than him in Europe.

Compared to the Knicks, the Wizards are too adapted. It was the five of them who teamed up to make the playoffs last season, and this roster has been honed for a year and knows each other very well. Chris Webb has a good hand and scores again and again, and no one can stop him.

Of course, Li Wei knew Weber, at the beginning of the 20th century, he was a superstar on the same level as Duncan and Garnett, but unfortunately he was seriously injured and no longer had his previous state.

There are too many superstars in this league who have been ruined by injuries, otherwise they would have been more colorful.

Five minutes later, Wizards head coach Bixduff decided that there was nothing left to break in with the starting lineup, so he switched to the bench. The Knicks replaced Oakley and brought on Bo Outlaw.

In official matches, Oakley is suspended, so Otlo needs to practice on the field.

The two sides went back and forth, and the score was anxious, but the coaches sitting on the sidelines did not pay attention to the score, but constantly observed the team's tactical execution, to see where there were mistakes and where improvements were needed.

The Wizards' main rotation is also exactly the same as last season's, unchanged. With full salary space, they can't sign strong reinforcements at all, and at most they will change a group of people with a base salary at the end of the bench. For example, John Wallace, who was traded in the summer, Darvin Ham, who played in the summer league for the Knicks, and Terry Davis, a 30-year-old old center, etc., are also the people at the end of the bench who have to run in.

On the Knicks' side, the 21-year-old Garnett is quite mature, after all, he is also a veteran bird who has been in the league for two years. The 22-year-old Big Z has also begun to adapt after a short period of chaos.

After that, the Knicks made another substitution, the 23-year-old Nash performed decently, and the same 23-year-old Ben Wallace was a little stunned when he arrived on the court, and it is no wonder that the Wizards put him at the end of the bench.

Another 19-year-old genius, Stephen Jackson, came on the court, not timid at all, daring to fight and kill, but after throwing two indiscriminately, he was quickly replaced by Li Wei.

"As I said, you have to have a vacancy to vote, you know?"

"I feel like I'm empty, I can score." Stephen Jackson whispered.

"Go sit at the end of the bench, copy my playboard five times, and think about the right way to play."

"Yes." Stephen Jackson replied with a grim face.

Li Wei shook his head.

This kid wants to eat the genius of Indiana University, Carl Porter Channey, to prove his ability. But even if this kind of ball is scored, it is not what the team wants.

Stephen Jackson is not the Knicks' Kobe, not now, and not in the future, even if the team needs to play alone, it will not be his turn.

Li Wei knows that the NBA is not a game of size, and two bulls can win the game, and young people need time to grow. In the 08-09 season, the Thunder, who had Durant and Westbrook, had a record of only 23 wins and 59 losses, fourth from the bottom in the league, and Durant only made the playoffs for the first time in his third year.

Stephen Jackson is not as talented as the Thunder, and he is only a 19-year-old, maybe he is strong enough, maybe he can score on the court, but it is obviously unrealistic to expect him to help the team win now. Li Wei estimated that it would take him at least one or two years to really grow.

But this person's personality is really a headache.

"Let's keep it for now, anyway, this kid is quite obedient on the surface, and he didn't cause trouble." Li Wei thought secretly.

The difference between a rookie and a rookie is quite big. Stephen Jackson needs to grow, but there are players who can become instant players as soon as they enter the league, such as Duncan, who graduated from college after four years, and Big Z, who has been playing in the professional league in Lithuania for three years.

Lithuania is a basketball powerhouse, and when Big Z is in the club over there, the technical and tactical level is very high. In the year he came to the United States, although he didn't play, there was a process of precipitation and accumulation during the recuperation period, and he understood the team's tactical system very quickly.

"Big Z, this kid is good, he didn't suffer too much against Muresan, yo, grab another frontcourt board!" Chuck Daley Dao.

Li Wei smiled: "Haha, Chuck, do you think he can pick up the burden of our main center?" ”

Chuck Daley said, "I feel like you've picked up a treasure, but we'll have to find a replacement for him." Herb is too old, Ben Wallace is too short, and none of us can hold up the inside line after he's off! ”

"Is Ben Wallace too short?" Li Wei smiled, "Let's talk about it, anyway, we don't pursue results this year." ”

"That's just as well." Chuck Daly nodded.

The preseason ended 96-97 with the Knicks losing by one point. However, no one cared about winning or losing such a game, and the media only published photos of Li Wei's dunk.

The scene of Li Wei's dunk is really exciting, the tallest player VS the shortest player, everyone will tremble when they see it.

After watching this footage, the NBA official is also preparing to add it to this year's promotional video, and I believe that Li Wei's height can resonate with many people.

No one cares if the Wizards win or lose with the Knicks, but the other game, the Knicks vs. the Pacers, was hyped up as early as the start of training camp.

Larry Bird said that Li Wei was not worthy of being the head coach, and Li Wei said that Larry Bird should lead the team to play ABA!

Both managers have declared in front of the media that they want to slaughter each other's teams!

New Yorkers and Indianans are mortal enemies, so who can miss this opportunity to join in the fun?

On October 9, the Knicks faced the Pacers at their home court, and the audience was already crowded, and the voices of killing the Pacers came and went!

Let's start with the home of the New York Knicks.

Madison Square Garden is located in the Manhattan borough of New York City, above Pennsylvania Station, one of the largest train stations in the United States.

How was the stadium built on the station, you ask?

Penn Station is a completely underground train station, and the part above ground level is Madison Square Garden. The first thing many out-of-town visitors to New York by train see is this large, magnificent, historic building, which is the face of New York.

Madison Square Garden is not only home to the New York Knicks, but also to teams such as the New York Rangers, New York Liberty, St. John's University, and Red Storm University, as well as a venue for large-scale indoor events such as solo concerts and political rallies.

In previous lives, New York's first motivational concert after the devastation of 911 and the last concert before John Lennon's murder in 1980 were held here. It is also the former "mecca of boxing" in Las Vegas, and it is the most active stage of boxing in the past century, hosting historical classics such as the first and second fights between Fraser and Ali, and many boxing matches with Joe Lewis.

A history of Madison Square Garden is a vivid history of American sports, literature and politics. A visit to New York is complete without Madison Garden.

Located in the nation's largest city, in the most prosperous location, and with the most compelling home stadium, the Knicks have never had a shortage of spectators. In the era when the Warriors were soaring to the end in the previous life, the ticket price of the Warriors still couldn't be compared with the Knicks.

The owner of New York in the previous life, why did he still throw money into it when the team's record was rotten?

Because he makes money!

Even if the Knicks have the worst record in the league, even if the Knicks have the highest salary in the league, even if they pay the luxury tax every year, the boss still can't lose money!

Why did Li Wei buy the Knicks instead of other teams?

Because he knows that once the Knicks make money, it will definitely be the first in the NBA, and no team can compare with it, even the Lakers, who are located in the second largest city in the United States and have very loyal fans!

It was also in this era that the prospects of the NBA were still uncertain, and there were many loss-making teams, so Li Wei could buy the Knicks. In the 21st century, no matter how much money he pays, the Knicks boss will not be able to sell it!

Today's live broadcast of this game is MSG TV.

MSG is actually the English abbreviation of Madison Square Garden, as the name suggests, it is a television station that specializes in broadcasting Knicks games in New York. That's right, that's how the Knicks are all the rage, and there are special TV stations that broadcast their games live every day.

Of course, the New York Rangers (ice hockey) and New York Liberty, which also play Madison Square Garden as their home stadium, are also the objects of MSG's live broadcast.

In addition, teams such as the New York Red Bulls, the New York Cosmos (football), and the New York Islanders (ice hockey), as well as sports such as the New York Jockey Club, will also appear on MSG TV, but compared to the Knicks and Rangers, they are all raised by their mothers.

MSG Television is part of Cable Corporation, a very influential company in the New York State area that once owned half of the Knicks. In the previous life, it was their boss Charles Dolan who bought the shares of ITT in '97 and appointed his son James Dolan as the Knicks boss.

In this life, in order to completely control the Knicks, Li Wei negotiated with Dolan and his son for a long time, and agreed to many unequal terms. For example, MSG TV has obtained the broadcast rights of Knicks for ten years free of charge, and the station will always have the right of first refusal to renew the contract of Knicks broadcasts since then, and so on.

The ace host of MSG Radio's Knicks game is named Marv Albert, known as the "Voice of the New York Knicks".

Unfortunately, a 42-year-old woman said this year that Albert tricked her into her room, beat her, bit her, and forced her to have sex for no reason.

Albert denied it, but the police detected Albert's DNA from the bite marks on the woman's body, and also found Albert's sperm from the woman's substance.

This time the matter made a big fuss, although Albert later claimed that it was the woman who had to let him bite, and he had to let him do that, and the case was also in the process of being heard, but the impact was too bad!

Fans can't understand this - as a well-known host, you are good-looking and personable, even if you want to play some tricks that ordinary humans don't understand, you won't find a 42-year-old, right?

It's so unbelievable!

MSG saw that this matter was too bad, and before the start of the new season, they fired Marv Albert!

Today's race host is Marv Albert's spare tire, Greg Gumbell!
