Chapter 19: Then retire, don't bow to that rookie

In the visiting locker room, Chuck Daley gave a brief summary before heading outside to discuss Zhou Quan's performance today with McCloskey.

Both men were very excited and had renewed hope in their hearts for this team.

Before that, they had already retreated with the collapse of the Bad Boy Army, and McCloskey was even working on his retirement plans.

But Zhou Quan's debut, especially against Jordan, gave them hope.

"Vision, passing, that's the weakness of the scout's evaluation, but today's performance, I think there's something wrong with the scout's evaluation, and I think both of these abilities should be top-notch. Of course, one performance is not enough. ”

Chuck Daley thought for a while, and then said: "The assist ability is quite good, and the organizational ability is also good, mainly due to the lack of experience, and after the Bulls strengthened their pinch attack in the second and third quarters, the lack of rookie skills was exposed."

Jack, he has the potential to be a first-class playmaker, especially he has a defense that is lacking in the average defender, and we can really strengthen his development.

Although the ceiling is not as high as Isaiah, it is worth looking forward to. Anyway, we don't have any other young people, so let's do our best to train him. ”

'He's going to have to go on an individual attack, he's not going to be mature enough to have a plan for that and tell him exactly what we need from him.' McCloskey nodded.

"Be sure to do the work of Isaiah and let him help Iron Fist strengthen his individual offense." Chuck Daly said.

McCloskey was in pain when he heard it, Isaiah's tough seed, could he figure it out? If it had figured it out, there would have been no fight that day.

"Jack, team, what do you think of the current team?" Suddenly, Chuck Daly asked.

"You?"

McCloskey wanted to ask Daley what he was talking about, but he immediately reacted, understood what Daley meant, and said hesitantly: "Rebuild, or wait for Thomas to return, I'm not sure, I need to observe for a while, until Thomas comes back, so be it for the time being." ”

Chuck Daly nodded, McCloskey couldn't decide, and so did he.

……

"Isaiah, that kid's performance is okay, the team won't give up on him, what are you going to do?" Detroit, Ranbier said.

Isaiah Thomas said: "He's still a long way off, he has very little experience in the game, McCloskey said the other day, let me take him with me. ”

"You're going to bow to a rookie? Are you crazy, are you still a fearless smiling assassin? I'm so disappointed! Isaiah, you should fight back and take the team back, his little strength is not enough in front of you, it is too weak. ”

Ranbill's eyes widened and he said angrily.

Thomas glanced at Lambier with disdain and said, "No, I'm going to send him a war letter on your behalf and help you make another appointment." ”

At this time, he took out an ice hockey glove from his butt pocket, threw it and said, "I'll prepare the gloves for you." ”

"Damn it!"

Ranbir looked at the glove, felt extremely dazzling, grabbed it with one hand, slammed it on the floor, and a pair of fierce eyes glared at Thomas and said, "Isaiah, are you provoking me?" Don't think I'm not going to beat you. ”

"Bastard, you've beaten me up so many times, and once I was hit in the hospital by you, have you forgotten?" Thomas said angrily.

"Who told you to provoke me?" Ranbir smiled awkwardly.

Thomas didn't bother to pay attention, leaned back on the sofa lazily, put his hands on the back of his head, and said thoughtfully: "We did go a little too far that day, don't you think?" ”

"You guy, I'm here to get angry with you, otherwise what would I do against him? He can't take my place, do you blame me now? ”

Ranbir gritted his teeth in anger.

Thomas continued to himself: "I still hate him, very, very much more than Jordan.

After all, Jordan didn't beat me, didn't make me lose such a big face, didn't let me lose so much, and this rookie, he has ruined my life.

However, Bill ......"

Speaking of this, he put down his hands holding the back of his head, looked at Lambier solemnly and said: "Now in front of us, no, you have retired, you have already decided, and now the pressure is all on me." Bill, do you think there is any other way to go in front of me?

My reputation is rotten, rotten, coward, coward, softass, old bird who suppresses newcomers, the object of hatred of all NCAA college students, even my juniors now, they hate me, that's what I call now.

I'm either going to go back and reconcile with him now, or retire like you, and I'm not going to trade anyway, I don't want to go to a second team, I don't want to do it in my life.

And now that my reputation is rotten, I don't think any team will want me, what do you think? You tell me, what should I do? ”

"Kill back, take back your place, why reconcile? It was he who beat us, and we suffered a big loss. Ranbir said angrily.

"It's a big deal, the league is staring at me, and the management is also supporting him, how can I get back? Why don't you bring a gun in and help me kill him?" Thomas said coldly.

Ranbir opened his mouth, are you me a bad brain?

He still has a lot of good life to live, and his father still has a lot of property left to him, how can he kill someone? That's something that no madman would do.

"Bill, you may not know, several of my sponsors have all run away, the losses are huge, tens of millions of dollars have flown away, they have abandoned me, because I am no longer the fearless smiling assassin I used to be, I am just a coward, an old bird who suppresses newcomers, a bastard!"

At this point, Thomas was close to roaring, and the green tendons on his forehead were swollen.

"So much loss?"

Ranbir was shocked because he didn't have any sponsors and didn't know anything about it.

"So, Bill, do you think I'm willing to bow to him? If I could beat him, I'll go to him now. ”

Thomas asked, staring at Lambier with blood-red eyes.

"When, of course not."

Thomas's eyes were a little terrified, and Ranbir looked away.

But at this time, Thomas leaned back on the sofa weakly and sighed: "Because of the impact of this incident, many NCAA college students who were originally going to participate in next year's draft have publicly stated that they will not participate in the NBA draft next year.

The most troublesome thing is that O'Neal, the number one favorite predicted by almost all the media, said that he would reconsider his choice, you know.

So, Bill, it's the league that's forcing me, and I don't have a second way unless I choose to retire like you. ”

"Then retire, don't bow to that rookie." Ranbir said angrily.
