Chapter 40: [Randolph's MVP trophy, the Knicks' new plan]

Randolph was happy, he opened his arms, he felt that he could do anything tonight, like an eagle soaring in the sky, swooping down casually, and eating the chicks he wanted.

"Kevin Garnett, your billion-dollar contract should be given to me. You are the cancer of fame, and the timberwolves can be killed by you too badly. They spent money, didn't get results, and instead became a superstar. Tsk tsk. ”

Zach Randolph taunted Garnett to his heart's content.

He is a narrow-minded person, and he can chase and annoy people who annoy him with one sentence.

Garnett hated him so much that he immediately asked for the ball and singled out Randolph.

But Garnett is not a master of heads-up scoring, his highest score in a single playoff game is only 35 points, what does this mean? He's not a scorer who can handle production. His most suitable job is the second master.

Bang!

His turnaround jumper hits the iron.

The rebound was also picked up by Suhi.

Sushi got it, ran all the way, hit the penalty area, and passed the basketball again, Randolph received the ball in the bottom corner and shot again...... Swish!

Three-point hit

Garnett couldn't defend himself.

He didn't expect it to be a fat man with thick eyebrows and big eyes in Randolph. I didn't do a good job in the restricted area, and I ran outside the three-point line to shoot.

It's so accurate.

How can you prevent this?

It's not just Garnett who is thinking about this, Popovich and Shaq O'Neal are all thinking about it.

They're all championship aspirants, and they're all thinking about what to do with the Knicks. This is a question they have to think about seriously, the Knicks are already the first in the regular season, although basketball experts are still picking on them such and such thorns, but after Zach Randolph joined, the Knicks' lineup is really not weak, and Randolph has now developed new offensive means.

How will you defend when the time comes?

High-end people are thinking about the future.

Tracy Maddie is cursing reality,, why are they all eyeing my All-Star MVP? Garnett, are you going to rebel?

Maddie began to snatch possession, and he began to single.

Garnett's side is also unhappy, and he is also going to single-handedly fight Randolph.

The west is still more than 10 or 20 points behind, and they have already begun internal friction.

The eastern side is not continuing to chop melons and vegetables.

Isaiah Thomas stood on the sidelines and posed, and his biggest hope for this match was to leave a few classic photos.

After all, this is the first time in his career that he has coached an All-Star.

Although he has led the team to a good record in the past, he has never won the first place in the halfway.

Time is moving forward, and the winners and losers are already very clear.

Only Tracy Maddy still doesn't admit defeat, and he still thinks that he can create a miracle in case he scores 60 points in 60 seconds.

Garnett was not happy, he was not happy that Randolph was so proud.

Popovich gave up early, he stopped directing the tactics, and instead focused on Randolph's performance.

Randolph's score quickly cleared 60.

MVP is a nail in the coffin.

With two minutes left in the game, the Spanish team, trailing by 28 points, called a timeout and Popovich began to make substitutions.

At this time, a very interesting scene also happened in the east.

Isaiah Thomas said to LeBron: "If nothing happens, garbage time is coming, do you still want to play?" ”

Thomas's words did not hesitate to rub salt in the wounds of James, the Pistons, and the Heat All-Stars.

Suddenly, they all stared at him.

I am the chosen one, and you dare to humiliate me like this.

That's right.

Thomas's eyes were calm, and he made it clear that he was in one sentence: That's right, I'm such a qualityless person, and you have the ability to me in person.

James showed their protest with a determined look that they didn't want to play.

Isaiah Thomas was not angry either. "Okay, I've given you the opportunity, it's your own business to refuse to play."

"Zach, there's still more than a minute, you still have 7 points left to get 70 points, hurry up and brush up the points."

Thomas said with a smile: "70 points in the All-Star Game, the first person in the world." In the annals of history, no one can compare to you. Give a hard slap in the face to those who used to laugh at you. ”

Randolph hurriedly agreed.

The conversation between the two of them made James and them angry. They didn't expect Isaiah Thomas to be able to say the score so calmly and naturally.

How can a person be so shameless?

However, if Randolph is to really score 70 points, he will definitely go down in history. In the future, when it comes to All-Stars, you have to mention him Randolph.

This is in stark contrast to Randolph's terrible image a month ago, when everyone shouted at rats crossing the street.

Backbite!

The whistle blows and the game continues.

The West really lost resistance, and even the unconvinced Maddie sat on the bench.

Randolph has no psychological barriers, he is notorious anyway, he doesn't need to care about what to behave and leave a line to see each other in the future, he and Isaiah Thomas both have the temperament of 'love whoever you love'.

Randolph succeeded, throwing five three-pointers in a row in the final minute with the help of Sushi, hitting two of them and completing a layup.

Achieve an achievement of 71 points.

When the whistle blew, Randolph excitedly took off his jersey and ran across the field, howling and screaming.

He even climbed onto the technology table, and at 300 pounds, he made the entire technology table sway, and he was shouting: The fat man is also big! The fat man is also big! I'm the MVP! I'm the MVP!

He's as passionate as the lead singer of a band playing death rock.

Houston became his home turf.

The TV announcers have to say that Zach Randolph did find himself with the Knicks, and he became the biggest surprise of the season.

At the same time, they can't help but make some jokes about the Trailblazers.

Even if they had previously commented on the deal by saying that selling Randolph was the best decision the Trail Blazers had made in the last decade. But now, when Randolph is so beautiful, they say the Trail Blazers have wasted a top All-Star.

Many Trail Blazers fans are beginning to regret why we sent this omnipotent black fat man to the Knicks for free and also hitched a ride with an unprotected draft pick from 2007.

Facts aside, isn't McMillan at fault?

The basketball circle began to reflect.

This reflection is undoubtedly the third injury for McMillan, who was beaten twice.

But at the same time, it also reaffirms an ironclad fact: in competitive sports, food is the original sin.

When you play a supernatural performance, there will naturally be experts to debate the scriptures for you.

Except, of course, Suhi.

Suhi is a class enemy in American basketball.

The award ceremony after the game became unsuspenseful, and David Stern was not yet on the court, and everyone already knew the answer.

Zach Randolph lifted his MVP trophy as he wished.

The score of 71 will also be forever recorded in the All-Star history.

This will be a scoring record that will never be beaten.

Although many people have begun to say that this statistic is Suhi's full feeding, Isaiah Thomas does not pay attention to the rules of the rivers and lakes to delay time.

But 71 is 71 points.

"Thank you to the New York family, to Sushi the goat, to Isaiah Thomas, to the Knicks teammates, to my good brothers. Thank you to the fans and everyone who voted for me. I did it. ”

Zach Randolph raised the trophy and shouted: "It turns out that the one who was ridiculed can also reach the finish line, SKR, SKR!" ”

Speaking after the race, Randolph continued: "It's the biggest honour of my career and the only record I've ever set. I'm grateful to the Nix and I'm grateful to Sushi the Goat, who made me rediscover my self-worth. I'll always follow in the footsteps of the Goats, and I'll do everything I can to help the Knicks rush to the top." We're going to win the championship, we will. ”

Randolph even choked up a little.

The guy who yells that the fat man is also big is holding the trophy hard, and what gets caught in the whirlpool of memories is the scene where he meets Suhey outside the Atlantic casino.

He didn't dare to imagine what kind of nightmare scene he would face if he hadn't met Su Xi and hadn't turned around to say hello.

Now, it's all heaven.

Randolph cried.

Crying like a fat black man of three hundred pounds.

Isaiah Thomas smiled, smiling like the villain of a Hong Kong movie against a defenseless little girl. From the eyes to the expressions, there is a kind of disclosure: if you are not convinced, then you should call the police.

'I'm the manager, do I need to explain to whom I use the players?'

"Any team has a main team, a core, and a sub. The focus is on winning the game. Sushi and Zach have long proven that they are the main players in the main team, which is why Zach scored 71 points tonight. ”

"Of course they play on the bench because they can't do it? If they're very capable, why am I being the manager? ”

"I don't care what the Chosen One is, the Chosen One is the product of media hype for me. I just look at the results, the trophies, the history. What is the Chosen One? Stolen half of the Rookie Best Rookie trophy? ”

"If the Pistons, Heat, Cavaliers or Pacers feel offended, come to me. Blessings to them beating us in the game. ”

When Isaiah Thomas faced the reporters, his expression was really annoying.

He only said a smiling word the whole time. "Let me raise my hands and applaud Zach Randolph's record night."

In this Houston All-Star Game, he set up a four-sided strong opponent for the Knicks.

But that's okay, Knicks fans are adamantly rooting for him.

New Yorkers are arrogant and think they are the world's largest city, so why should they be compared to these cats and dogs?

It used to be because the Knicks were not angry.

Now that the Knicks have Suhee the goat, rushing all the way to the first, why do you have to look at other people's faces?

Isaiah Thomas is so crazy? It's so good, it's simply the embodiment of the spirit of New York.

At this press conference, Isaiah Thomas was also asked about something else.

Like the Knicks' plan.

Isaiah Thomas said in earnest: "Because we have already won the first place in the halfway of the season, and we have secured a playoff spot half a season early. So in the second half of the season we plan to do some tactics and we will relax a little bit in terms of results. ”

"We're going to be ready for the playoffs and hopefully we don't drop to eighth in the East. lest the fans say that we always take the black eight. Hahahaha. ”

"But when we fall to the bottom half, they shouldn't dare to win in the top half. What if you run into us? I love to be honest. ”

"I guarantee that none of them wants to touch us. Believe it or not, if they say they're willing to meet us in the first round, we're going to adjust our strategy and play specifically for their record. ”

Isaiah Thomas said, "I made it." ”

Everyone is convinced of this.

Isaiah Thomas has shown their madness.

The media is really boring, and people really run to ask Shaq O'Neal. "Isaiah Thomas said that the second half of the season should be rotten, and if you are not afraid of them and want to meet the Knicks in the first round of the season, he will satisfy you."

"Huh?"

O'Neill didn't react.

He's usually crazy enough, but he didn't expect Thomas to play even crazier.

"He said you didn't dare to touch them in the first round, did you dare?"

The reporter made it very clear.

However, O'Neill did not answer positively. "I don't respond to such hypothetical issues," he said. ”

O'Neal knows how crazy the two Knicks maniacs are, and the traits Thomas and Randolph displayed tonight prove that they really are the kind of people who just do what they say.

If they are not afraid, they will definitely go all the way to the point of playing the first round with the Miami Heat.

O'Neal really doesn't want to run into such an unconventional team in the first round, in case it makes them crazy and black.

They are too uncontrollable.

No matter how you say it, it depends on them playing one or two rounds and seeing their rules clearly.

Randolph returned to New York with an All-Star scoring record and an MVP trophy, and he was greeted in the middle of the road, with the New York media calling him a historical miracle and his popularity reaching unprecedented heights.

He's cool.

Then, he donated a large amount of money to buy sneakers and jerseys for poor children.

This made him more appreciated.

A positive incentive cycle has been formed.

Isaiah Thomas returned to New York to emphasize to the media that the Knicks were going to study tactics in the second half, so the record was no longer the number one pursuit.

The fans understand.

The media is also very supportive.

In the past, the Knicks couldn't win, and they would abuse and lash out because the Knicks really couldn't win.

Now, the Knicks have proven their strength to be unbeatable, polishing their tactics for the playoffs, and it doesn't matter how many games they lose.

Isaiah dared to take the Miami Heat, which is recognized as the strongest in the East, and the Heat remained silent.

Doesn't this show that the Knicks are high above and no one dares to mess with their strength?

That's what New Yorkers want.

In the first game after the All-Star break, the Knicks welcomed the Detroit Pistons.

The Pistons were humiliated by Isaiah Thomas at the All-Star Game and are holding their back.

But they held their back, and the Knicks had to follow the rules.

The Knicks focused on working on their offensive system.

The inside line is double fat, Suhi, Crawford plus Jalen.

This set of starters grinds slowly.

Although the Pistons are missing Larry Brown and Ben Wallace, their defensive system is still there, making them an excellent sparring partner.

The Knicks fought with them all the time, and they actually took the lead in the first half.

This made Isaiah Thomas anxious, and in the locker room worriedly asked, "Have we come up with all the new play?" Don't fight what you're good at in order to win them, it's time to find shortcomings. ”
