Chapter 675: The Life and Death of the Knicks
Bynum undoubtedly has a lot of complaints and a lot of resentment towards Kobe Bryant, but this kind of complaint and resentment can only be hidden in the bottom of his heart and become one belly slander after another.
At this moment, neither the commentators in the live broadcast nor the audience in front of the TV speculated about Bynum's mental activity, nor even commented too much on the heads-up between Bynum and Eddie Curry.
For everyone, they don't matter at all, everyone looks at the whole picture...... And these two men obviously do not have the ability to influence the overall situation, they are essentially flags, and they have neither the ability to influence the direction of the game, nor the power to determine the direction of the game.
"Now Xiao is trying to open up the situation in the Lakers' restricted area!! He's already sent shells into the Lakers' restricted area twice, and the Lakers are defenseless against it, and they still can't find an effective way to contain the squander. Whether Xiao Xiao wants to score outside the three-point line or wants to pass the ball in the paint, the Lakers can't stop it, they can only watch Xiao Xiao do whatever he wants! Earl Johnson said on the live stream.
"That's a superstar, ignoring defense, ignoring any block!" Michael Jordan gave a high rating.
"No, it's not just superstars. You must know that the dashing disregard for defense is not just one aspect, but all-encompassing. Some stars can ignore the defense to break through, or jump shots, or assist. But Chick can accomplish three things at once, in fact, he can accomplish anything he wants on the pitch if he wants to. And this should no longer be called a superstar, but a ruler!! Charles Barkley corrected Michael Jordan's rhetoric.
Michael Jordan didn't refute it.
Another MJ magician, Johnson, raised some doubts: "So in your concept, chic is no longer omnipotent. It's about doing anything. Is that right? ”
"Yes. On the pitch is really anything. He doesn't have any faults! He's the perfect basketball player, even better than Michael, at least Michael's three-point shooting ability has never been good! Charles Barkley directly confirmed the Magician's doubts.
"So, you think Dash is even greater than Michael Jordan and more representative of basketball, right?" Magic Johnson dug a trap for Charles Barkley.
Charles Barkley didn't think about it, and jumped into the trap with a pop: "Yes, in my heart." That's it. Xiao is now stronger than Michael Jordan at his peak, at least Michael Jordan can't lead such a Knicks to the Finals, and still go to the Finals with an undefeated record in the playoffs. ”
"No, no, no. Charles, I think you have a problem with your perception of the Knicks. The other Knicks players aren't as weak as you think, they're incredibly strong, and even though they used to be problematic players of one kind or another, they've all exploded themselves. Whether it's Stephen Marbury, or Tracy Maddie. It's still Milicic, it's still Eddy Curry. They were both able to burst out at an All-Star level in a given game, and Tyson Chandler, Jeffries, who were very top defensive players, and David Lee was also quite good, with impressive defensive rebounds and mid-range shooting. Even Nate Robinson was able to play some classic bench bandit rhythms. So, I would say that the role of the role players is also huge for the Knicks to get this far!! ”
LeBron James immediately explained that he felt that the Knicks' players were not as weak as everyone thought.
He said this, of course, in order to weaken Xiao Xiao's personal ability.
However, he ran into Charles Barkley.
If it were any other commentator, it might have been a perfunctory remark, but not Barkley.
Barkley immediately retorted decisively: "So, Mr. James, if you swap clubs with Xiao Po, can you lead this powerful Knicks to the Finals?" I don't even ask you to do the same thing as Chib. ”
Barkley's words are no longer hidden needles in his words, but completely to the extent of a gun and a stick.
LeBron James was so unprovoked by Barkley that he couldn't get off the stage at the moment, and his emotions surged up instantly, and then he responded directly with his youthful spirit: "Of course, if I swap clubs with Xiao Sage, I can also enter the Finals." ”
LeBron James was really confused by Barkley's anger.
As soon as he said this, he basically offended all his teammates on the Cavaliers...... This is not to tell the other players of the Cavaliers clearly, if it weren't for your pig teammates who slowed me down, Lao Tzu would have entered the finals and won the championship.
This is throwing the pot!!
And this pot, obviously the players of the Cavaliers don't want to carry it, because in the end, LeBron James is the leader and the one who should be mainly responsible!!
Listening to LeBron James say this, the two MJs on the side couldn't help but shake their heads again and again, a top player, a team leader, and a proud son of heaven actually said this kind of words in the live broadcast program in the United States, whether they were provoked or not, this should not be! This matter can be covered up with a 'can't be assumed'!
"No, I don't think you can get in. Dash will lead the Cavaliers to snipe out your Knicks, because Dash will fit seamlessly with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and you won't be able to mobilize the Knicks' chemistry. You may not be convinced, but it's true! Charles Barkley unabashedly despised LeBron James.
LeBron James's emotions have reached the brink of exploding under the contempt of Charles Barkley, and no one has ever said such provocative words to himself since joining the league.
But Charles Barkley is a senior after all, and this is still his home turf.
LeBron James, although extremely unhappy, still held back.
And, Magic Johnson quickly relieved the siege: "Charles, don't discuss this hypothetical issue. No one can give an arbitrary opinion about something that didn't happen. It's as if no one knows what prospects will be held if Xiao Dash joins the Lakers in the summer of '08, which has never happened. So... Let's focus on the present! ”
Magic Johnson is a person with high emotional intelligence. In the same way, he has a big face.
That's what he said. Of course, the two of them would give him a face, so they pressed down on this issue.
At the same time, there is the most enthusiastic discussion on the Internet.
Xiao and LeBron James swapped owners, what a topical and malleable issue.
"I can guarantee that LeBron James can't lead this Knicks to the Finals. Because these players have changed dramatically under the catalysis of Xiaoxiao, without Xiaoxiao, Milicic will always be a parallel import, without Xiaoxiao. Maybe Marbury, the cancer of New York, has long since left the league. Without Dash, Tracy Maddy wouldn't have regained her love for basketball, and without Dash, Eddie Curry would still be the same dead fat man...... All the changes in the Knicks and all the evolution are based on the Shaw, and what could LeBron James do without the Shaw? He couldn't do anything. And his style of play will only emasculate the versatility and autonomy of his teammates, just look at the Cavaliers' stars, who have put up some of the worst numbers of their careers since joining Cleveland, why is that? Because they have to match LeBron James's style of play!! ”
"If you join the Cavaliers. I think Cleveland people wake up laughing when they dream. Xiao Xiao can definitely bring them a championship, look at the Cavaliers' lineup. It's not bad at all! ”
"If these two are swapped, Xiao Steam will get the championship and LeBron will get more money."
"10,000 New Yorkers don't pass the swap regulations, and if you want to exchange for chic, unless you pack Iron Man with Spider-Man plus Captain America, you don't have to talk about it!!"
"The Clevelands just want to keep LeBron!!"
“…………”
Soon, the discussion on the Internet changed from a little bit of technical analysis at the beginning to the mutual spraying and territorial protection of people in two places, and no one wanted to change!
So, the assumption turned into a war of words!
When there was a lot of verbal exchange with LeBron James on the Internet, Bynum made another mistake on the court.
So, he once again ushered in Kobe Bryant's reprimand and scolding, and even put down cruel words...... If you're still obsessed with singles and don't play team basketball, get back to the bench.
In the face of Kobe Bryant's reprimand, Bynum only had resistance left in his heart, he felt that Kobe Bryant was not qualified to say himself, and he thought that Kobe Bryant was not a good teammate at all, and did not support himself at all, if he could help him attract the bag and pass the ball, he would definitely do better than Eddie Curry, a dead fat man...... Why don't you have a good teammate who is as empathetic as Chic?
Bynum's stomach was full of resistance and depression.
Back in the half, Xiao Po still delivered the cannonball to Eddie Curry, and this time the Lakers had already taken precautions and used Pau Gasol to cover, but ...... Eddie Curry still scored, because the dashing pass went straight to the rebound, Eddie Curry just jumped lightly and clicked the basketball into the basket...... Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum's bag clamp is nothing but nothing.
Three consecutive penalty scores, and it's the same person, and it's the same routine.
Phil Jackson finally called a timeout, and he couldn't take it anymore.
The Lakers lost four more points in these three rounds, and one more point would be a double-digit point difference.
Phil Jackson called a timeout, but Michael Jordan still felt that his on-the-spot reaction was a little slow: "Phil should have called a timeout a long time ago, and he should have been replaced when Bynum didn't score the second goal." How can you let a center forward who can't score goals stay on the pitch and dominate the ball? ”
After saying this, Jordan turned his head sideways again and teased Magic Johnson: "I heard that since you selected this high school student in 05, you have been doing your best to cultivate him, and you and Abdul-Jabbar have trained him for a long time. How... As a result of the training, even Eddie Curry can't deal with it? By the way, I forgot to tell you that the Bulls asked me for advice when they chose Eddie Curry back then, and I voted yes! And Tyson Chandler, I nodded too! It seems that your draft vision is nothing more than that!! ”
Regarding the draft vision, it has always been one of the few black spots in Michael Jordan in basketball, since winning Kwame Brown, he has selected several North Carolina players one after another, but unfortunately they have not played as well as they should. Raymond Feldton, who now plays as a backup guard for the Knicks, was also his handicraft.
And for Magic Johnson, being ridiculed by Jordan for his draft vision is undoubtedly more uncomfortable than eating a mosquito.
However, he couldn't find a way to fight back, and now Bynum was taught a lesson by Eddie Curry is an objective fact, and he has indeed slowed down the pace and progress of the Lakers, making the Lakers now in a difficult situation...... It's already 9 points behind!
"Young players have a rush of blood, and I'm sure Phil will be able to come to his senses quickly after giving him a little hint. He'll understand what to do on the pitch. The magician said very carefully.
When he comes to his senses, Xiao Sao probably won't continue to deliver shells to the inside line. You have to know that Xiao has the ability to pass the basketball to any teammate, maybe the next explosive score will be David Lee? It's impossible for the Lakers to completely defend against the Knicks' offense, and the only way they can win is to score more points than the Knicks. Charles Barkley said disapprovingly.
"No, the Lakers can also get what they want by draining the physical strength of Knicks players. The Knicks' temporary lead is not terrible at all, and when it comes to the third and fourth quarters, it is time for the Lakers to chase the points frantically. Kenny Smith, who rarely spoke, finally spoke his mind, draining the Knicks' physical strength...... This is something that those experts have been emphasizing before the game, but since the opening game, the Lakers have not actively executed.
When it came to the matter of exerting physical strength, Barkley was silent.
This is indeed the life and death of the Knicks!
