Chapter 249: Jay? Williams
"Why is it surprising that I, the player, came to talk to you?" The two of them went to a café and asked for a cup of coffee, and when they looked at Jay's face with complete confusion, Battier asked with a smile and a very gentle face.
"No, it's just that I know my current state, it's not because of impatience or anything, I'll adjust it, there's nothing to say......"
"Is it because of Gong Feng? Or is it because of how the Knicks position you? Battier didn't wait for Jay to finish his sentence, and asked first.
When Jay heard this, the expression on his face changed all of a sudden, and he was very unhappy and threw out his embarrassed face.
"It's still the same as when I was in college! I don't care about anything, I just want to get what I want most, when we were all together that year, no one thought that we Duke still had the ability to win the third championship, even if Du Hong's strength was still there, but because you and Boozer were too young, even if they had some ability, but NCAA is NCAA! Battier didn't seem to see the look on Mir's face, but just stirred his coffee to himself, completely caught up in the look of memory.
"Yes! But who knew that Gong Feng would give the two of us a dismount when he came up, and then constantly urged us how to do it in the offseason, after the golden generation joined the NBA, I didn't expect Duke to usher in a new era! ”
"Gong Feng wants to talk about the relationship with his teammates, the first must be me, and the second may be you, because I was responsible for guiding Boozer back then, but he was responsible for you, and even Du Hong did not have this qualification!" Battier concluded.
"But Jay. Do you know? If you hadn't joined Duke back then. Although Gong Feng has more responsibilities. The team won't care about any results, but Gong Feng's workout, his scoring opportunities in the game will also increase, and his qualifying ranking in the draft will not only be ranked outside the 18th, but he will be selected in the 10th place, which is a very unexpected situation! ”
"Do you want to know what he really thought back then?" Battier asked, looking at Jay's shocked look and his eyes filled with disbelief.
"You know what? When Du Hong first joined the school team, Gong Feng had never been so concerned, because Du Hong came to the team at that time. Stupidly went directly to compete with Gong Feng for the core position, even if Gong Feng generously expressed his understanding, there was still such a hurdle in his heart! ”
"He's only been with you for a year, and I've been with him for four years, and you know how I trained for my stamina in the NBA without the pressure of transitioning? Because Gong Feng and I encouraged each other. ”
Looking at Jay's slowly expression, as if he remembered something, "Jay, no one wants to really restrain you, but now you are in the NBA." It's no longer about giving in, it's about choice! ”
'The player's own choice is key. But the most important thing is the selection of the team! ”
"I don't know if you looked at the video carefully, did you carefully watch Gong Feng play? To say something that shouldn't be said to you, my current situation, I have encountered it in 01, because I am surrounded by high school students with potential centers, second only to Richardson's quality man, the second college student to be selected! ”
"Do you think I didn't have any idea of being a second Bird back then? But you know who my teammate was at the time, right? Gasol, yes, it's this guy from Spain, who didn't say anything or persuade him with the slightest words, but just told me directly with his actions, Sean! It's time for you to wake up! ”
"I don't mean to wake you up, because your quality is much stronger than that guy, but I advise you to think about your future!"
"The current Knicks are in the best upswing period, but because of the arrival of Malone, our goal this season is directly focused on the championship, but in the more than 40 games that Malonet did not come, who could have thought that who among us would have thought that our Knicks would be the first in the league at that time? That's the first of three wins over the league's second-place Pacers! Whose do you think is the main credit here? ”
"Ciel? Big brother Hill is indeed a strong point, but without Gong Feng's help, Hill can't get that triple-double data, which everyone will admit, because Gong Feng in the later stage directly gave up the power of his own organization and fulfilled Hill! ”
"But before Hill didn't give up on Gong Feng, the ability he embodied was enough to surprise people, especially under D'Antoni's system, Gong Feng got the greatest benefit, and Hill can only say that he is secondary!"
"Jay, if nothing else, I'll just ask you, can you do all this that Bow Peak does?"
After Jay cut directly to this, he said: "Sean, you are my big brother, I will listen carefully to what you say!" But I still want to say that Gong Feng is very strong, I admit, put me in his position, I can't do it, but I can use my breakthrough and scoring to make the team get the victory it deserves! ”
Battier burst out laughing when he heard this, but fortunately the two of them were in a private box in a café, otherwise they might not have attracted much attention.
"Use your score to win? Do you think your scoring ability will be better than Hill on this team? Aaron Qiang? Yao Mingqiang? Or can you be better than this year's rookie Bosh in the future? Jay, use your brain to think about it, this team is not short of a scorer again, just because everyone can win together, this is the foundation of this team! ”
"With your score? How many points did you average while with the Bulls? Your teammate at the time, Jaylen? Rose, Jamal? How many points does Crawford average again? You didn't fully show your abilities in your rookie season, but how much better can you do than these two in the future? ”
"I will be much stronger than the two of them in the future!" Hearing this, Jay stared at Battier with red eyes.
"Hehe, good! You're better than both of them, so good! You prove it, prove yourself in the playoffs! Gong Feng only made the Knicks decide to bet heavily on him after getting the FMVP, so what about you? ”
"I'll prove it!" Jay stood up straight after saying this.
Battier didn't mean to stop him from leaving, but finally whispered behind him: "Jay, this team is now, it is impossible to retain too many high-ranking rookies with your ideas and abilities, you still have more than two years of rookie career, and the Knicks next year or the year after will either immediately replace you and get the high-ranking draft pick you want, or they will directly let you go to ensure that they get the championship, because sooner or later they will know what you really think now." ”
"In that case, you can fight fairly with Gong Feng, let the Knicks, no! It should be to let the whole league see your value in Jay, let them know how tough you are, and let the Knicks trade you away and let you get the absolute core position in the new team, or...... Or swap out Bow Peak at this time next year and leave you behind! ”
Jay paused when he heard this, and then replied softly, but in a resolute tone: "I will prove my worth, maybe my future is not in the Knicks, but I will still prove that Jay in his rookie period is the best sixth man in a championship team!" ”
Battier smiled happily when he heard this, this conversation had reached the goal that Hill had set for himself, and that was enough!
At least at this moment, Battier knew in his heart that Jay's heart was not swallowed by jealousy, and Jay knew clearly in his heart the difference between himself and Gong Feng, and even more clearly knew what the organizational role that the Knicks needed most was like.
……
In the first game, Jay was more faced with the full defense of the entire Pistons bench lineup, and in the face of such a situation, Jay could only play blocking and dismantling according to the tactics prescribed by the team, and constantly evolve tactics to win the points he deserved.
But when the Pistons decided to do their best, the main team sacrificed time and energy, and used the main force to win some victories on the bench.
When he had the will to win even if he would play the whole game because of this, Jay knew his chance had come.
Jay believes that as long as he can rely on his own strength, he can lead the bench players to victory against the Pistons' main team.
Then the high-ranking people in this alliance must remember, Jay? The name Williams! (To be continued.) )
