The day after the Knicks win, the Warriors flew non-stop to another city on the East Coast, Minneapolis, Indiana, where the Pacers lived.

As soon as he got on the plane, Nelson Sr. suddenly found Chamberlain and said, "Hey, Z, aren't you going to give your compatriot Yi a call to congratulate you?" Yesterday he did a good job. ”

Chamberlain is inexplicable, what happened to Yi Jianlian? Yesterday he played well? So I quickly found a newspaper to read. There are no phone calls or internet access on the plane, so the staff of each team will prepare a large number of newspapers and magazines on the plane, which are valuable reports for the last two days for the players and coaching staff to see.

No wonder the old Nelson asked Chamberlain to call Yi Jianlian, yesterday they sat at home against the Heat, although they lost, but if there was no magical performance of Wade who scored 14 points in the last 4 minutes, then this should be a game that belongs to Yi Jianlian.

In yesterday's game, Yi Jianlian played very well, he shot 7 of 11, including 5 of 6 3-pointers, contributed 24 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists and 1 block, and his points, rebounds and assists were the highest in the team in this game. It's just that teammate Harris was injured and didn't play the game, and Carter was not in shape, although he played well, the team still lost.

Of course, Wade played better, especially in the last four minutes of the last 14 points, Iverson and West didn't know about this game, after all, they were tired enough last night, and they went back to sleep after the game, and now they listened to Chamberlain's amazement, so they went to watch it together, and after watching it, West sighed: "This is my example." ”

Iverson pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Help me up and try!" ”

Chamberlain said angrily: "Try a fart, we're about to play with the Heat, don't be merciful when the time comes, and score 14 points in the last four minutes, I believe that as long as you can score 10 points in the last 4 minutes, our team will win!" ”

Chamberlain read the newspaper, although the team lost, the American media still gave Yi Jianlian a very high evaluation after the game, of course, Chamberlain not only paid attention to Yi Jianlian, but also Winnie. Sure enough, in the post-match interview, Yi Jianlian emphasized Winnie: "I am especially grateful to her, she helped me a lot and taught me a lot of things that I didn't understand before." Of course, I am also grateful to my national team team-mate Chamberlain, because Winnie is his full-time trainer, but Z asked her to help train me for the time being, and I am glad that I have such a wonderful trainer. ”

Winnie's training is indeed fruitful, it's a miracle, Yi Jianlian was still an overrated soy sauce man last season, although he is not the boss of the Nets this season, but he has repeatedly played a core-level performance, and his popularity has skyrocketed.

ESPN commented that Yi Jianlian's current changes are shocking: "He is no longer the hesitant foreigner, he is now more confident and more decisive, you look at the performance of him after he gets the ball, he wants to get the ball into the hoop or send it to the teammate who scored the goal, which is different from before." In addition, his 3-point shooting ability is amazing, and the current Yi Jianlian reminds us of an old guy, yes, that is Divac. ”

Yahoo Sports also gave Yi Jianlian a high rating, and their editors believe that it was because Yi Jianlian hit consecutive 3-pointers at the beginning of the second half to help the Nets play a 16-5 small ****, which was able to turn the lead from 1 point to 12 points.

The New York Times also featured the game, with the headline: "Nets put on a shooting show, but didn't take away the win." According to the article, Yi Jianlian was a highlight of the game, and he hit three 3-pointers in a row in the third quarter. It was Yi Jianlian's outstanding performance that made Wade have to show all his housekeeping skills. In previous games, Wade missed 9 3-pointers, but in the game against the Nets, he made 4.

The most important thing is that Yi Jianlian's performance was recognized by Nets head coach Frank, who said at the post-game press conference, "Yi needs to take on more responsibility, when Devin is not there, it is not enough to rely on Vince alone, Yi is a guy worth relying on, I am relieved to hand over the ball to him, someone once told me that Yi should prepare a few sets of tactics, I thought it was unnecessary at the time, and now it seems that I am too stubborn." ”

Yi Jianlian played well, Chamberlain was also very happy, Yao Ming's foot injury is getting more and more serious, and there is a possibility of retirement at any time, Sun Yue was thrown directly by the Lakers to the NBDL, it is estimated that there is no way to continue to mix in the NBA, if Yi Jianlian does not play well, then Chamberlain will become the only NBA player in China, although it will be more dazzling, but Chamberlain does not like the feeling of being cold in a high place.

After getting off the plane, Chamberlain immediately called Yi Jianlian and said happily: "You did a good job, brother, what about the triple-double, I have only won a triple-double so far, you are really amazing, I hope that the next time our two teams meet, you can continue to play like this." ”

Winnie's confidence training worked, she was praised before, Yi Jianlian must have been modest and said that it was just a fluke, occasionally played such a time, teammates helped and so on, this time Chamberlain praised him, he said calmly: "I will continue to play like this, of course, I have to rely on my teammates to give strength, yesterday I passed the ball they all scored, this is good, Winnie taught me to use vision and athleticism to help teammates score, this is a good way, Z, do you want to give it a try?" It's a great feeling to pass out and assist a teammate to score. ”

Chamberlain smiled: "Forget it, I prefer to score and grab rebounds by myself, and of course assists and blocks are also very cool." ”

Yi Jianlian also wants to get 15 rebounds or even 20 rebounds as easily as Chamberlain, but his confrontation ability is not up to standard, and now he is concentrating on the position of organizing the forward.

After arriving at the hotel, Chamberlain lay down and prepared to rest, Yi Jianlian said before saying goodbye to him: "At the same time, I thank Coach Nelson, many of Winnie's teachings are conveyed by his advice, and he has also given me a lot of guidance since the Olympics, but I can't say it in public, otherwise it will make people misunderstand that I want to surrender to you." ”

Chamberlain immediately joked and said, "Then you join our team, we welcome it, anyway, you are only on a rookie contract now." ”

Yi Jianlian knew that this was a joke, he didn't plan to leave the Nets, because he told him that of course he also vaguely saw that Nets boss Carter is no longer in New Jersey, since Kidd went to Dallas, he also wants to leave this team and join a team with the strength to win the championship.

The Nets also know this, so they are trying to find a way to correct Harris as the boss, Harris is good, but it is also a good one, Yi Jianlian now has an ambition, that is, if Carter stays he will be loyal to assist Carter and then become the second leader, if Carter is gone, then he will find a way to be the boss.

Yi Jianlian was not convinced by Harris, he didn't understand the reason, in fact, the reason was very simple, Winnie taught him that everything should be fought for, and now he has the temperament of a wolf in his character.

As soon as Chamberlain hung up the phone with Yi Jianlian, there was a sudden knock on the door of the hotel room, and the voice was urgent, obviously it was not the waiter knocking on the door, he opened the door, and Curry's anxious face appeared in front of him, "What's wrong?" ”

Curry was a little speechless in a hurry, he pulled Chamberlain to old Nelson's room and walked briskly, and at the same time calmed down and whispered: "Al and Old Tang quarreled, the quarrel was very strong, Chauncy and Allen were there to persuade them, and when I went, I heard Old Tang say that he wanted to trade Al!" ”

Chamberlain almost peed when he heard this, what the hell are you doing, do these people think that the Warriors have too few things and the lineup is too stable? Indeed, the Warriors in the summer did not bring in many reinforcements and only let go of O'Bryant and Petrus, but after the start of the season, there were many things, especially the trade of Ellis, which had a great impact on the team.

As a result, less than a week after the Ellis trade ended, Harrington started to make trouble again? It's worth it!

Harrington's door didn't close, and as soon as Chamberlain pushed it open, he heard the old man roaring angrily: "You're full of classes, he thinks he's a superstar, he wants more, and he questions my arrangement." Of course, I think he's a really good player and a lot of teams are coveting him, so if he wants to be traded, I'll satisfy him. I swear to God that I will grant him this wish! ”

On the eve of the season, several teams approached the Warriors for trade proposals, including Eddie Curry of the New York Knicks and Jamal Tinsley of the Indiana Pacers. These proposals have been publicly exposed, but the Warriors have shown little interest, and Nelson Sr. once told reporters that Harrington is not for sale for the Warriors.

At that time, the trade was really in an uproar, especially this time the opponent Pacers, who wanted to trade with the Warriors in every possible way, and they wanted to get Harrington. The person the Pacers want to send away is Jamal Tinsley, and it's interesting to note that he's in exactly the same situation as Marbury.

Tinsley has also not played a game this season despite being fit well, and the Pacers said back in September that their team doesn't want Tinsley anymore, but they won't buy out Tinsley's contract and will try to find a buyer interested in him. At the same time, Tinsley is free to organize his own life and not have to go with the team.

As a result, Tinsley has not even spent as much time in Indianapolis this season as President-elect Barack Obama has spent here.

Speaking of the Pacers' general manager Big Bird Bird is indeed a character, Tinsley is in the same situation as Marbury, the former is not making trouble at all, while the latter is making a lot of trouble in the city, making the entire Knicks team fall apart now.

Big Bird's approach is that if you don't want someone to stay on your team, don't let him show up with the team again. Let him go to Las Vegas and have fun, as long as the check is written to him, he won't get tangled with you. He's just a name on the roster for the team, and the team can start doing whatever they want.

This "out of sight" approach has its benefits, at least not the disobedience and refusal to play – because he doesn't even sit on the sidelines in his jersey. If the Knicks had done the same with Marbury, they might have already found a home for Marbury by now.

To get back to the point, after Chamberlain entered the room, old Nelson was swinging his fist and roaring, and Harrington's face was full of indifference, Iverson pulled him and continued to comfort him, but he obviously didn't take the answer to heart, just looked out the window coldly.

Billups was busy persuading old Nelson, and when he saw Chamberlain coming, he hurriedly pushed old Nelson down to his side, and then through the old man's roar, Chamberlain knew what was going on.

It turned out that when he first arrived at the hotel, the old man couldn't wait to enter the room and looked for the hotel's public toilet first, but in the toilet, he heard Harrington's phone, although he didn't listen to what he said, but the old man heard this sentence: "Mr. Walsh, I will consider your proposal carefully, and I also hope to be able to cooperate with you again." ”

After hearing this, according to the usual style of the grumpy old Nelson, he should have rushed out of the city to do Harrington, but he didn't do it, because there were many reporters in the hotel, and he didn't want to make this matter known to everyone, but waited until Harrington entered the room, and he chased in and kicked it out.

For old Nelson, this patience is absolutely painful, and his players actually contacted the general manager of the starting team, what is the difference between this and a man wearing a green hat? So after the old Nelson entered the door, he didn't play any tactics such as repairing the plank road and secretly Chen Cang, encircling Wei to save Zhao, luring the snake out of the hole, and the old man pushing the cart, and asked Harrington bluntly.

"Do you know what he asked me?" Harrington suddenly interjected, and he sneered and said, "This old guy said to me, bastard, what the hell did you do behind my back just now?" You son of a bitch! ”

Chamberlain's scalp was numb, things were big today, he knew that the problem was definitely not caused by the title of old Nelson, old Nelson liked to scold people the most, and he didn't know what Lu Dao said if it was more ugly than this before, but no one cared, and Harrington didn't care.

This time Harrington used this sentence to say something, which shows that he really intends to tear his face, he is just using this sentence as a shield, this is just a reason!
