On March 25, 2014, there were two signings in the league at the same time, not about the players, but about the management and coaching staff. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Among them, the Zen master and the Knicks signed a huge contract of 75 million for 5 years, becoming the executive president of the Knicks for the next five years, and the huge annual salary of 15 million made him the highest-paid management in the four major leagues in North America.

The Zen master's status with the Knicks is the equivalent of the Lakers' Jim Buss, and he can wield the team's checkbook at will.

The name of the Zen master is naturally loud, and Knicks fans instantly feel a renewed love for the home team, and the Knicks have made headlines in a rare positive posture this season.

Because the Zen master's joining the Knicks was too high-profile, Luke Wharton's joining the Spurs coach as an assistant coach of the Spurs was directly ignored, and even no news was found.

……

"Xiao Ai, you rest first, let Ah Ren clean up by himself!" Chen Hanni sat on a clean chair that she had finally found.

"But it's such a mess, the master is so tired of cleaning alone......" Da Lori said weakly.

Liu Ren burst into tears when he heard Da Lori's words, it's still Lori! Knowing that it hurts people.

"He deserves it! actually took that group of skinless and faceless teammates to a party at home, making a mess, knowing how tired Xiao Ai is to take care of our family! Want to play don't know how to go to a restaurant? Wine at home is so expensive! It's all a waste for you! "It turns out that a certain chick is distressed about the high cost of wine!

"Hurry up and clean up for me, and I'm going to train at the Toyota Center in the afternoon!"

After the chick finished speaking, she left with a distressed big Lori, leaving Liu Ren with a sad face.

"Those bastards, playing until the morning, actually took a taxi and left! Pity my wine ......" Liu Ren complained while cleaning up the mess, fortunately, the poor man was in charge of the house early, and in his previous life, he had to be responsible for cleaning up the house since he was a child, and he didn't know anything.

But these two people are worthy of being two people, and the points they care about are the same.

It took half an hour to throw a pile of garbage outside, another half an hour to sweep the ground, and finally another half an hour to wipe the tables and chairs clean and mop the ground.

In the afternoon, Liu Ren, who had dark circles under his eyes, came to the Toyota Center, and sure enough, whether it was Kobe, Gasol, Nash, Nick Young and others, they all had dark circles under their eyes.

Kobe Bryant was very sad, he lost more than 100,000 last night, and today he was the first to come to the stadium to train.

Madsen, the assistant coach in charge of training, was also a player before, and he was kind enough to let the players practice shooting on their own, and he didn't arrange any tactical training, and he knew that it was strange that these people could train well now.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, D'Antoni arrived and called the players to the conference room for an intra-squad meeting.

"It's great that we got 50 wins and became the fifth team to confirm a playoff spot, but just relax and work harder for the next games to get 60 wins and be one of the best players in history!"

D'Antoni's old-fashioned opening remarks, as for why it is the fifth, because there is enough choking in the East, the Raptors have just broken through 40 wins, and they have already determined the playoff spot, and the Pacers have advanced to the playoffs early by relying on their peers during the 11-game losing streak, and the other team in the East that has advanced to the playoffs is the Heat, and even the Spurs are not as fast as the Heat and the Pacers to advance to the playoffs, or to get 50 wins before they are determined.

'We have 14 games left and of course I think we have the quality to win all the opponents, but there are still mistakes and I understand that, and I want all our team-mates to take every game seriously and try to get 60 wins!' D'Antoni turned on the projector after speaking, "Our next opponent is the New York Knicks, I believe everyone knows, the Zen master has become the leader of the Knicks management, in other words, now we are going to play against the team led by the coach with 11 championship rings, I don't think the next game will be very good." ”

As soon as D'Antoni's words came out, some people were immediately unhappy.

Nick Young said disdainfully: "Isn't it the Knicks!" With my Uncle Nick here, we can finish them in three or two, and last time we easily defeated them. ”

"That's right, with Paul and Hassan, we can beat them casually, Liu can easily defeat all the outside lines, coach, you are too worried." Thackeray likewise doesn't take the Knicks seriously.

The four veterans of Kobe, Gasol, Nash, and Carman won't say anything at this time, but other young people don't like to hear this kind of angry words.

Liu Ren also said euphemistically: "Mike, no matter how powerful the Zen master is, he has only just arrived at the Knicks, and he is not James, so it is impossible to turn the Knicks into a super strong team all of a sudden, right?" ”

However, although the four veterans do not say it, it is clear that they support the words of these young people.

D'Antoni sighed in his heart: "It's really impossible to make this group of guys take the Knicks seriously, Phil really can't turn the Knicks into a top team all of a sudden, and it's impossible for the Knicks to become the championship favorites this year, but one game can still be done!" ”

D'Antoni has seen the ability of a Zen master to guide people's hearts, and he is always able to activate his players at crucial moments in the playoffs and put on unexpected performances.

After talking for a long time, D'Antoni could only emphasize once again that he could not be careless in the next game, and then ended the meeting.

……

That night, in the game between the Knicks and the Clippers, Anthony was powerful as soon as he came on the court, scoring 29 points in a single quarter in the first quarter, and the scoring explosion was fully displayed, blinding the Clippers, who have always been unable to concentrate at the beginning of the recent period, and the Knicks led the Clippers by 26 points in a single quarter 41-15.

The Clippers have a characteristic recently, they always start the game behind by a big score, and then chase angrily, showing their previous strength during the point chase, but because the point difference is too large, and Barnes, Redick and others refuse to play for Sterling's team, so they are understaffed and lost.

This game was the same as the previous five games, Paul and Griffin began to vent all their anger on Sterling in the second quarter, but they were too far behind at the beginning, and the somewhat broken triumvirate of Anthony, Chandler, and Stoudemire was extremely brave today, all of them played their best performances of the season, and they were stunned to withstand the counterattack of Paul and Griffin.

In the end, Anthony relied on a season-high 51 points and 14 rebounds to lead the Knicks to a 115-107 victory over the Clippers.

After the Knicks defeated the Clippers, they yelled at BEAT-LA in the locker room and pointed at their next opponent - the Lakers.

At this time, a group of people from the Lakers were playing around and didn't take the Knicks to heart at all.
