After Chen Jiyuan came back from running, he had breakfast at home, and then he started training, if he wanted to win the Celtics, he couldn't do it by talking about it, he had to pay the sweat on Cheng Dù to succeed.

He started training without saying a word, and didn't say anything to Britney Spears and Ivancardo who came to the house.

Scarlett Johansson has gone out because she has her own job.

And, in the middle of Chen Jiyuan's training break, Chen Jiyuan and Ivanka chatted. Britney left first because the team had a job.

When Chen Jiyuan was at halftime, he was practicing free throws while chatting with Ivanka next to him. In the case of distraction, sure enough, the shooting percentage of free throws is not good. But Chen Jiyuan felt that it was also a little beneficial to let the body remember the feeling of free throws, although there was no scientific verification, but Chen Jiyuan thought so, so he did it. On the side, someone naturally picked up the ball for Chen Jiyuan. All Chen needed to do was ask Ivanka to forgive him for this slightly rude behavior. Of course, Ivanka didn't care. I also know that now is the critical moment for Chen Jiyuan. So he obediently talked to Chen Jiyuan by Chen Jiyuan's side.

The topic of the chat is also related to the future of the Knicks, Ivanka told her expectations for the future of the Knicks, in fact, if there is no support from Britney, then Ivanka has no way to make her voice heard in the management of the Knicks, and now, Ivanka is very clear about the idea of building a team that Chen Jiyuan wants. First of all, Starkey must go, which is a key link in Chen Jiyuan's team building plan. And now Starkey's value is also quite good, very marketable, some garbage teams hope to find a passionate and powerful player like Starkey to become the leader of their team and lead the team out of the shadows. Even if you don't want to be a championship team, you must at least lead the team to a playoff team first.

The effect of the Knicks after finding Chen Jiyuan was immediate, so now there are some teams who are very optimistic about these people who have just been in the league for two or three years, and feel that good players will definitely grow into great stars if they are given a good environment.

So there's definitely no shortage of trade value for Starkey, and the question is whether the main chips the Knicks need are draft picks or young players. For the offer of the various teams now. Some of them came with the intention of trying to see if they could take advantage of it, and some of them were more sincere, but the price they could pay was really difficult for the Knicks to accept. At the same time, the Knicks also need to consider how Starkey himself feels, and what potential next home Starkey prefers. These are also things that need to be well considered.

It's not so easy to trade a star like Starkey. That's the reality in the NBA, if Starkey is a normal player, then no one cares about you wherever you want to go. You don't have the right to speak, but when you become a star, it's different, especially since there is no essential conflict between the Knicks and Starkey, and Starkey is now ready to accept his status as the second. It's just that because you can't give Staki the contract he wants, he has to trade Staki, and there are a lot of such things. When a player is worth a lot of money, it's very normal and very reasonable. After all, people have the right to ask for money that matches their strength. And now that the Knicks don't want to give so much, they naturally want to trade Starkey.

It is for these reasons that if the Knicks trade Stucky, they still need to communicate with Starkey, so that they can get together and disperse.

Trading Starkey is one problem, and the other problem is that Stephen Jackson doesn't want to renew his contract with the team. In fact, the main reason is also the team's low post problem, Stephen Jackson feels that he has too few opportunities to shoot in the Knicks. Feeling that he didn't receive enough attention, Stephen Jackson was also a star who averaged 20+ points per game when he was with the Warriors. But after arriving at the Knicks, Stephen Jackson was assigned more of a defensive task. After coming to the Knicks, the average number of points per game this season dropped directly to 14.5. This score is not low in the Knicks, though. After all, Chen Jiyuan, as the absolute leader of the team, can get an average of 30+ per game, Starkey is coming to a 20+, how can there be so many shots for Stephen Jackson to get 20+, and Stephen Jackson is not a scoring star with a high output, so naturally he can't get more shots. So Stephen Jackson, who was not satisfied with the status quo, also asked for a deal. And the Knicks are also thinking about this, although Stephen Jackson, as a veteran, can bring a lot of things to learn from the locker room, but Stephen Jackson is also a thorn, which was the case when he was with the Warriors, it was because Stephen Jackson was not satisfied with his current status, so he fell out with the head coach. Even pretending to be sick and not playing.

Stephen Jackson's problem also needs to be addressed, and fortunately, there is no shortage of people in need of a trade, and there are many people who are willing to ask for them. Therefore, they can still get a lot of benefits from leaving. Even Chen Jiyuan felt that he could use these two people as bargaining chips in exchange for a little surprise. However, the specific operation will need to wait until all the games of the season are over to have time to think about it.

The topic of conversation between Ivanka and Chen Jiyuan basically revolves around these two people. It wasn't until Chen Jiyuan decided to start training again that Ivanka left. Although there was no substantive progress in the conversation, at least Chen Jiyuan told Ivanka his thoughts, and Chen Jiyuan hoped to exchange for draft picks. It's best to be a little bit higher in the pick, because next year's rookie has a good teammate in Chen Jiyuan's mind. So draft picks are needed, as for young players, good young players will not be traded, and those who are traded must be problem players, and there are too few cost-effective. It's better to have a draft pick.

However, Ivanka said that this matter needs to be discussed, because Ivanka thinks that if it is in the draft, then the run-in of the Knicks will still take time, in that case, it may not be able to go further in the playoffs next year, and it is not even possible to go to this place this year. This is something that must be considered. For this, Chen Jiyuan also has a headache, now that he thinks about it, the five-year NBA championship back then was not very round.

However, Chen Jiyuan finally said that for the time being, it is better to contact more teams with draft picks.

Then Chen Jiyuan continued his training.

That night, Scarlett Johansson returned to Chen Jiyuan's house. Looks like I'm really planning to stay here permanently. However, Chen Jiyuan didn't say much. The next day, Chen Jiyuan flew to Boston. Where will we go for the fifth game with Celtic. This is a crucial battle between the Heavenly Kings.

In Chen Jiyuan's mind, he had to fight the Celtics for 300 rounds. However, the reality is brutal.

In the first quarter of the game between the two sides, the Knicks were led by nine points.

Then in the second quarter of the game, the Knicks' bench players played very badly. Originally, the Knicks could be said to be full of talent on the bench.

Nate Robinson, as a short point guard, has a decent scoring ability, at least for a while, and it is not a problem to score points for a while. But today Nate Robinson is completely out of touch. And the same other scoring guard who lives by his touch, Jamal Crawford, also had a bad hand today, scoring 8 points on 3-of-11 shooting. In the second quarter of the game, Jamal Crawford missed all 5 shots and was replaced by Thibodeau. After making the playoffs, Thibodeau became more and more dissatisfied with Jamal Crawford and wanted to trade Jamal Crawford very much. The abnormal play of the two people in the backcourt made the Knicks a little miserable by the Celtics.

The Celtic triumvirate all took advantage of the opportunity to fall into the trap. I want to kill the Knicks in one fell swoop and win this crucial battle of Tianwang Mountain. Ray Allen still had a good three-point shot today, and in the half, he made 3 of 5 three-pointers and scored 12 points. As the team's leading scorer, Paul Pearce scored 18 points. In the first two quarters of the game, Paul Pearce, who rushed into the interior crazily, even made Chen Jiyuan fall into foul trouble early.

Garnett's table was also good today, scoring 10 points on 5-of-10 shooting in the half. Garnett also had six rebounds. And today, the other man in the Celtics has a standout touchline of Rondo. Rondo doesn't know what's going on today. Maybe it's the eruption after the silence of the first four games. In this game, Rondo also frequently rushed into the interior and then fouled. Although this kid's free throws are really not flattering, no matter whether the free throws are scored or not, Rondo is one of the culprits who made Chen Jiyuan carry 3 fouls.

It was because of the good sidelines of these four that the Celtics scored 62 points in the first half of the game. The Knicks' defense is like nothing, which makes Thibodeau, who started as a defender, very difficult to accept. There was a lot of criticism from the players who came on the pitch.

The Knicks didn't just give the Celtics 62 points, and then only 40 points themselves. trailed the Celtics by 22 points at halftime. This can be considered a disaster for the team.

However, there is still a chance for this point difference.

At the end of the halftime break, Chen Jiyuan was in the players' tunnel. He said to his teammates: "At this point difference, I know a lot of people have given up a little bit of the game. ”

As he spoke, Chen Jiyuan looked at the players around him, and then continued: "However, don't forget the fourth game of the finals last year, they can do it, and so will we. We are very strong. I promised the fans of New York that I would bring a championship trophy to New York City within five years. I don't want to disappoint those lovely fans. Brethren, I need your help. ”

Chen Jiyuan was deep in his own hands, and the Knicks' teammates put their hands on Chen Jiyuan's hands.

Chen Jiyuan yelled from the inside: "CAO flip them!" ”

"Oh-"
