Chapter 214: Layout! Boost for the walkers in two years' time!
As the league's No. 1 hegemon in the mid-90s, the Bulls did something completely different from other teams when they were in adversity!
When other teams fall into adversity, it is generally the leader or coach of the team who stands up, organizes everyone to have a meeting, inspires, and then eats together, jumps, or even has a happy silver party, and then uses this to regain the team's confidence and unity, so that the team can get out of adversity.
Of course, there are also some teams that will choose to be very bad, completely ignore the predicament, lose the game, and the next rookie will be more fragrant!
Whether or not you can quickly help the team regain self-confidence and reunite the team in difficult times or consecutive defeats is also one of the important conditions to test whether a player is a qualified leader.
The Bulls, on the other hand, never have meetings and don't need any morale-boosting links!
They just need Jordan!
When Jordan didn't say a word during training, his eyes were full of murderous energy, and he was crazy about increasing his weight, no matter which player the Bulls team had, they would consciously increase their game intensity, increase their training volume, and be very serious in training and warm-up, and they didn't dare to relax at all!
That's the horror of Jordan, the result of his accumulated prestige and fame.
Whether it is an opponent or a teammate, they are afraid of him!
Including Rodman!
Throughout Jordan's entire career, I'm afraid Lin Tian is the only one who dares to trouble him when he is angry, to joke and liven up the atmosphere.
It is also the past two years that Lin Tian has been here, so that Jordan and Pippen, two guys who don't like each other, have really become friends, although it is not very good, but at least when fighting against Lin Tian, they will be very united.
But today's Bulls team, there is no Lin Tian to ease the atmosphere, in the final warm-up stage before the start of the second game at the United Center, the air pressure in the entire Bulls team has been so low that people can hardly breathe, and the Bulls team quietly completed their most basic training programs.
Even Rodman and Pippen are honest layups, runs, shots, and stretches, and no one dares to work on this night, let alone show their heads on this night.
Shoot the first bird!
"Is the other side here for the game or for the funeral?" Lin Tian looked at the completely different atmosphere from the walker on the other side, and said curiously: "When I was here, they weren't like this!" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about, Michael's whole career, when the team is in adversity, his team is like this!" Barkley, who played with Jordan in the Finals, couldn't help but shudder: "In the Finals that year, we defended Michael to only 19 of 43 shots in the third game, and then won through 3 overtimes. ”
"After the game, I said to the media: Michael is not scary, we have found a way to fight him, Kevin can completely limit Michael, a Michael who has 40 shots, is not the opponent we fear the most, we will win the series!"
"And then." Barkley swallowed again: "In the next game, Michael really didn't shoot 40 times, he shot 37 times, hit Kevin all over the ground to find teeth, and then took a 55 points." ”
"Kevin wasn't the only one who was beaten all over the floor." Lin Tiandao: "What about you?" Didn't he break your basket? I remember he made 20 free throws in that game! ”
"How can there be 20? It's only 18! And we tried our best, our confrontation and defense, so tired that he only hit 13 of them! Barkley looked like he was innocent out of thin air and said, "Besides, I just fouled once in that game!" ”
"It's the first time I've seen someone so brazen." Miller leaned over and said, "If you don't defend, you don't defend, saying that you have fewer fouls?" ”
"You just say if I'm just going to foul once!" Barkley was annoyed.
"You're going to tell you how many of Michael's hats you have!" Miller smirked.
"A rookie who hasn't made it to the finals is not qualified to quarrel with me." Barkley snorted, turned around and wanted to leave.
But Miller was not ready to let him go at all, and shouted behind him: "If I am bombarded with more than 40 points per game and score 40+ in 4 consecutive games in a certain series, I will never recall that series!" It doesn't matter if it's the finals or some other bullshit. ”
"Because that's self-inflicted!"
Listening to the usual pre-game bickering of this pair of living treasures, Lin Tian didn't laugh this time, because the Bulls team opposite actually made him feel strange.
Maybe it's because the Bulls have hardly faced any downside since they joined, and they have hardly lost in the playoffs in two years, so he has never seen a Bulls team with such a dignified atmosphere.
Or rather, the Bulls who are so oppressive!
Lin Tianneng had a hunch that tonight's game would definitely not be so simple, and it was even likely to be his ...... in the past three years One of the toughest and most dangerous races I've ever encountered!
Lin Tian's hunch came true, at the beginning of the game, Longley defeated Schmitz and got the first wave of ball possession for the Bulls, and then Pippen did not look for Jordan in the first round, but shook Christie in a change of direction, went straight to the inside, and then raised his hand towards Schmitz is a smashing button!
"Boom!"
After a bang, Pippen not only knocked Schmitz to the ground, but also caused his blocking foul, and it was 2+1!
It's not often that Pippen is so aggressive!
In the past, Pippen still gave people a feeling of giving Jordan a hand!
But tonight, Pippen's state was clearly different!
His dunk also reminded many people of the top small forward who led the team to 55 wins when Jordan retired, with an average of 22+8.7+5.6+2.9 per game, and was selected for the league's first team and the league's first defensive team at the same time!
Pippen is not only the second leader of the Bulls to play Jordan, he is also really the first small forward in the 90s!
This dunk not only shows the attitude of Pippen and the Bulls tonight, but also shows that Jordan is far from alone in a state of anger tonight!
After Piponga hit the penalty, Lin Tian also encountered Hubble's strict defense when he dribbled, although Hubble was not Lin Tian's opponent at all in terms of speed and ability, but Lin Tian obviously felt that this guy was obviously more playful when defending, and he didn't care about cost and physical strength!
Tear up! Wild dogs generally swirled and tore around Lin Tian!
After dribbling the ball across the half court, Lin Tian first took a step back to widen the distance, and then accelerated directly, and Hubble was cleaned up in one step!
Trying to defend?
Sometimes in the face of absolute talent and speed, it is also so vulnerable!
After one step past Hubble, Lin Tian rushed into the inside line to attract Longley's help defense, and then Lin Tian quickly divided the ball and gave the ball to Schmitz, who was released on the other side, but Schmitz was just about to shoot after getting the ball, and Longley had already rushed to Schmitz again!
"Smack!"
With a clean and crisp sound, the basketball was slapped by Longley and flew to Pippen's hand outside the 3-point line.
Although many people on the Pacers quickly returned to defense, Pippen made a behind-the-back pass after rushing to the inside line, and gave the ball to Jordan who had just run outside the 3-point line, Jordan did not hesitate after receiving the ball, and glanced at the Pacers players who were at least 3 meters away from him, and shot 3 points, hitting accurately!
6:0!
As soon as the Bulls started the game, they showed the determination and ferocity that they had never shown before!
Pippen's dunk, Longley and Hubble are so fast that they don't look like their own defensive footsteps at all, and Jordan's resolute and calm 3-pointers!
The Bulls are absolutely ruthless tonight!
The entire United Center was immediately stimulated by these two consecutive offensive rounds and burst into cheers and shouts, this is their king!
This is the king of the Alliance!
The last game, just carelessly lost Jingzhou, the series, starts tonight!
In the frantic cheers of the home fans at the United Center, Lin Tian quickly dribbled the ball to the front court, and then stretched out his hand to make a gesture and applied for the first timeout of the game!
Less than 50 seconds into the game, Lin applied for a timeout! He couldn't be sick. "On the CBS commentary table tonight, as usual, it's Marcus, an old acquaintance.
"He's still pushing fast, Hubble has struggled so hard that it's almost completely impossible to hinder his speed, so I don't think it's an injury issue." Smith said on the side: "Maybe Lin discovered that tonight's bull is not at the same level as the previous bulls!" ”
"Tonight's Bulls showed their determination from the start!"
Marcus followed: "Lin is the person who knows the Bulls the most in the whole league, he knows their training style, team tactics, and the personalities and relationships of the players, and if there is one person who can tell from the first minute of the game that the Bulls are different from usual, that person must be Lin!" ”
On the bench of the Pacers, Lin Tian looked at everyone: "I called a timeout, just to remind everyone that this game is definitely different from the previous one!" Today's Bulls are definitely tougher to deal with than the Bulls in the last game! Maybe Michael won't score another 50 or 60 points tonight. ”
"But he's definitely tougher! I want all of us to get up to the top of the 12-point spirit and handle this game well, otherwise we're likely to fall straight down in the first quarter! ”
As Lin Tian said, the timeout called in the first minute of the game is actually no tactics to arrange, he really just wants to be able to remind his teammates, pluck up his spirits, and show a different attitude to face the game and the Bulls!
After the pause, of course, there will be no change in the lineups of the two sides, but the defensive alignment has changed, and the person who defends Lin Tian has directly become Jordan!
"You're frightened, Lin, you just paused, you were asking Larry to replace you, right?" Jordan put one arm on Lin Tian's waist, chewing gum, his eyes were full of murder!
"This ball, I broke through from your right, and then hit the basket and attacked, can you prevent it?" Regarding Jordan's trash talk, Lin Tian directly chose the toughest way to respond!
"Who do you think you are? Me? Jordan snorted coldly and said, "You set of Lin who is useless to me!" I don't eat psychological warfare! ”
"We'll see!" After Lin Tian finished speaking, he suddenly smashed his elbow on Jordan's ribs, which was regarded as a gift, and then quickly reached out to receive the sideline ball, and did not give Jordan a chance to spray trash talk or find a chance to get back on the field, and directly accelerated and drilled past Jordan's side!
The content of trash talk, sometimes psychological warfare, sometimes, well, sometimes another kind of psychological warfare!
Lin Tian just wants to break through from Jordan's right side, just to give Jordan a clear sign.
You can't stop me!
But although it was fast enough, although it made Jordan clean, Lin Tian still failed to score in the end.
Longley showed his toughness against the Heat last year, jumped in the air, and hit the basketball in Lin Tian's hand with both hands.
After two consecutive crisp sounds, Lin Tian's hands and basketball were both knotted by Langley, which was a foul in the absolute sense!
But the referee didn't blow the whistle!
In response to Longley's foul, the referees made a gesture to continue the game!
Lin Tian didn't go to the penalty ball, the penalty that has been determined, the matter that has been settled, and then protest, not only will it not change the result, but it will also be treated as a soft egg like a girl!
He quickly turned and pursued, rushed towards Hubble, who was holding the ball and launched a counterattack, and successfully caught up with this former teammate near the midfield, and then quickly made a quick move to break the ball from his hand again!
The basketball quickly rolled towards the sideline, and Lin Tian and Hubble were entangled together, and there was no way to chase the basketball by themselves.
Jordan and Miller chased after the basketball together, and Miller was originally in a higher position, but Jordan suddenly jumped and took out one of Rodman's most signature flying saves the ball!
This gesture of ignoring was beyond Miller's expectations, and he failed to react in time!
Seeing Jordan fall to the ground with the basketball in both hands, and then quickly pass the ball out again!
This time it was Pippen who caught the ball, this guy once again showed his bravery and courage tonight after holding the basket, and he hit the Pacers' basket again with the ball, and after colliding with Schmitz again under the basket, his pull-up layup hit again!
As for Schmitz's obvious foul action, it was also directly ignored by the referee!
The referees told the players one thing with two consecutive rounds of penalties: tonight's game is still yours! The 2+1 in the first round was purely uncontrollable cheeks and accidentally blew the whistle.
In the next game, there will be no more free throws for fouls of this level!
In the next offensive round, Lin Tian gave the ball to Barkley, who held the ball and attacked Rodman, but he missed the high-handed layup after pushing Rodman!
Rodman, who had just been scolded, immediately miraculously regained his balance, not only completed the turn and stuck position in an instant, but also jumped quickly, grabbed the rebound, and then handed the ball to Jordan for the first time!
Jordan held the ball and pushed quickly, and then gave it to Pippen, who again found Hubble on the other side, who threw the basketball directly to the basket.
"Boom!"
And then there was a bang! Jordan descended from the sky like a divine soldier, grabbed the basket with both hands, and completed an empty smashing dunk!
Crazy!
The whole atmosphere of the United Center today does not need a second adjective at all!
10:0 at the start!
The fans in Chicago are completely excited!
The team played tonight, they were so satisfied!
It doesn't get much better than this!
Although Lin Tian finally broke the team's scoring drought with a mid-range pull-up jump shot after blocking and dismantling in the next round, Hubble also quickly completed a breakthrough layup!
The difference between the two sides is still 10 points!
The 10-point difference has never been narrowed, not only can it not be narrowed, but it is still slowly expanding!
In the first quarter of the game, Bird called all the timeouts he called first, hoping to help the players get back to their senses, but it was always to no avail, and the starting five of the Pacers also played the whole first quarter!
At this time, Bird didn't dare to change people easily!
Because he, like Lin Tian, has already seen it!
The team is lagging behind, in fact, it is not because of poor form, they are not in the same mentality as the Bulls tonight!
The Bulls are fighting to the death with the mentality of fighting to the death, and the Pacers players still only treat this game as an ordinary playoff game!
The difference in intensity and mentality between the two sides is the biggest reason why the gap between the two teams was opened in the first quarter of this game!
24:13!
At the end of the first quarter, the Bulls' scoring was actually not high.
After all, Bird's set-up and encouragement still had some effect, and he successfully allowed the Pacers to increase their defensive intensity, but the Pacers never found any way to score to break through the Bulls' defense.
As the team with the highest average points per game in the regular season and playoffs this season, the Pacers were completely defended by the Bulls in the first quarter of the game tonight!
And another evidence that has been completely prevented is that the Pacers, as the top three teams in the league in assists and the first in the playoffs, scored 13 points in the first quarter all alone! They didn't produce a single assist!
This means that the Pacers are limited by the Bulls to the point where they can only rely on the individual ability of their players to attack, but they simply can't rely on the usual signature passing, fast break, and sharing the ball to attack the Bulls' defense.
The Bulls' defense is too good! They could barely find any big open shots!
Then in the second quarter, Bird made another mistake.
He was a bit conservative in his use of the roster, continuing the previous rotation, bringing Ross Barkley and Christie on the bench with three substitutes: Best, Dumas and Big Ben.
On the Bulls' side, Jackson directly showed a playful attitude, and the Iron Triangle was all present, not to mention, but also put Kukochi and Kerr at the same time.
They're back in that one-steal lineup!
Jackson's meaning couldn't be more obvious, he was going to pull away the score in the first half to close the game, and he was going to catch the Pacers off guard!
Jackson's ghostly and unconventional employment really worked wonders!
Jordan scored a goal as soon as he came up, and then he first steals Best and then assists Kerr to hit a 3-pointer!
With less than 30 seconds left in the opening game, the Bulls extended the margin to 16 points!
At this time, Bird still couldn't react, he just shouted for the two veterans Barkley and Dumas to be careful, but there was no timeout or substitution.
And Bird's slightly slower reaction directly made the Pacers step into the abyss tonight!
Barkley's low-post strong play was caught by many people, and his shot was stealed by Pippen again, and the Bulls completed the fast break!
Dumas received a pass from Barkley and missed the open 3-pointer, and the Bulls played a fast break again!
Then Best was completely empty outside the 3-point line, but the backup guard, who had never seen any big scenes, did not dare to shoot, but dribbled the ball directly into the inside, smashed into the crowd, and made another mistake!
Looking back, this time it was Rodman's turn, who basically didn't shoot much, to complete the air cut, and after receiving the ball, he smashed it with both hands and scored 2 points again!
The climax of this wave of offense was fast and smooth, making it dizzying and difficult to react to.
By the time Bird reacted and quickly called a timeout, the second quarter of the game had only been played for a little more than 2 minutes, but the difference between the two sides had exceeded 20 points!
Even if he immediately replaced all the starters, Lin Tian and Miller also made achievements outside the 3-point line, but in the end, the difference between the two sides was narrowed, but the Pacers were never able to close the difference to within 15 points.
50:33!
At the end of the first half, the Bulls' lead had reached 17 points!
They almost hit the Pacers in the head for the entire first half!
At the beginning of the third quarter of the game, Lin Tian suddenly broke out, he shot inside and outside, and continued to run in the middle distance, and in the first 2 minutes of the third quarter, he played a wave of 9:2 offensive climax, narrowing the difference to 10 points!
Just when the Pacers wanted to continue to chase points, the Bulls' defense suddenly changed!
When Lin Tian got the ball at the top of the arc again, Jordan and Pippen rushed up at the same time!
"God! What do I see? Jordan Pippen teamed up against Lin? Marcus said loudly: "Friends, everyone, please help me recall, except for the situation of low-level packing, assisting defense, etc., has there ever been such a situation of wrapping in advance at the top of the arc before?" ”
"Jordan and Pippen, have they ever teamed up so frantically against anyone in the league?"
No!
The answer, of course, is no!
Jordan and Pippen have never been so crazy in their lives, and they have made such exaggerated advance wrapping of anyone in a high position.
Lin Tian, today I have enjoyed this unprecedented treatment!
While the Bulls are offering the trick of double star wrapping Lin Tian, the defense of the other three members of the team is also very targeted! Christie, who didn't score 1 point on 0-of-5 shooting in the first half tonight, was almost completely empty, and he performed well in the first half, and Miller, who hit 2 three-pointers, was entertained by Hubble!
The other two people, Rodman and Longley, are closely following their own people, and they can help defend at any time according to the situation!
Even Lin Tian, in the face of the Bulls' level of double-star packing, he can only choose to pass, but even if his teammates are 4 to 3, they can't play any advantage because of the Bulls' beautiful rotation, fast defensive moves and tough attitude!
Christie, who was let go, was in a bad state tonight and couldn't play any normal performance, although he was decisive at the beginning, he only hit one of the 3 shots, which made the Bulls feel more at ease and thorough about letting him go!
The more you are released, the more you dare not vote, and the more you dare not vote, the more you can't vote!
After Christie, who was caught in this strange circle, was completely emptied, the Bulls' defensive power was even greater!
Lin Tian was caught by Qiaopi double, so there is not much he can do, although Miller and Barkley are not packed, but Rodman and Hubble are good defenders, and their close defense makes it difficult for these two guys to play any outstanding performance.
The Pacers relied on the little momentum that Lin Tian had just played, and they were immediately wiped out again, and under the elimination of the other, the Bulls began to open the score again!
By the end of the third quarter, they had once again extended their lead to over 20 points!
In the fourth quarter of the game, although Bird still didn't want to give up, let his starters go up and play for another 3 minutes, but in the face of the Bulls, who were united and went all out, they were powerless and it was difficult to close the score.
When Lin Tian faced the bag clamp of Qiao Pi and the crazy defense of Langley and others on the inside, and then failed to hit 3 consecutive shots, the suspense of this game was completely over.
Bird replaced his main man early with 8 minutes left in the game, and did not let them waste their efforts on the court, but simply announced the surrender.
It's just 1:1, it's away again, this big score, Bird is completely satisfied, and then return to the home court, which is when the Pacers really have to work hard!
100:81!
In the end, the difference between the two sides reached 19 points.
Although the gap is not particularly large, as long as you watch the game, you will know that the pace of the game is completely in the control of the Bulls, who have barely allowed the Pacers to narrow the margin to single digits since the start of the first quarter after leading to 10 points.
They showed the style and spirit of the defending champions and dynasty team tonight!
At least in terms of attitude and temperament, they completely blew out the Pacers tonight!
In the whole game, Jordan scored 25 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, Pippen 23 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, and Rodman 8 points and 21 rebounds.
On the Pacers' side, although Lin Tian scored a game-high 29 points, his shooting rate was only 11 of 29 shots, barely more than 30%! In the second half of the game, in the face of Jordan and Pippen's double bag, Lin Tian only hit 3 of 13 shots.
He had the worst shooting percentage of his playoff career, and on this night, he couldn't break through Jordan and Pippen's double defense when his teammates couldn't give Lin Tian enough support!
After this game, Jordan walked to the scene of the press conference with high spirits, and in the face of the media, Jordan's first question was: "Go and ask Larry and Lin, what jersey is God wearing tonight!" ”
Then, after answering a series of questions, Jordan used one more sentence to bring the series to a close.
"See you in Indiana! For me, this series has just begun! ”
For the Pacers, it's not that bad, and even for them, it's in good shape right now! Captured the United Center, the two away games were 1:1, not to mention 100 points, but it is absolutely no problem to score 80 points!
But obviously, that's just the way the outside world thinks about this series.
Several of the main players of the Pacers don't see it that way at all!
After returning to Indiana, the Pacers didn't rest and relax at all, and on the first morning after they returned to Indiana, the whole team gathered at the training hall, and Bird pushed a huge TV and started playing the video of Game 2, and while the video was playing, he was still analyzing the game.
"Reggie, this floor ball, Michael has already pounced, why don't you pounce? He's got 5 championships and 10 scoring titles, and he's all playing like this, so why don't you rush out and fight him for this floorball? ”
"Come to Charles, tell me how many frontcourt rebounds Dennis grabbed in your head? 8 or 9? What about you? How many did you catch? Are you embarrassed to say that you are a former MVP and rebounding king? ”
"Doug, look at these open shots, if you can hit two more shots, we can win this game! Lin won't be so ruthless by the Bulls! Listen, I can accept that you don't shoot! Everybody has times when they don't score, but you have to shoot! ”
"Understand? We need you to shoot! Non-stop shooting! I'm sure this damn basketball will always be thrown by you! ”
"Rick, you are the same, you are the one who once beat Patrick, you can shoot 100% in a single game against Patrick Ewing, and you can completely blow him up in the first two games! Why would you be afraid of an Aussie? ”
"He's not even a tenth of yours! He is up to your knees! Don't be afraid of him, shoot! Shooting! As long as you dare to throw, the ball will go in! ”
Bird called the players' names one by one and pointed out their shortcomings in the previous second game, while slapping loudly and encouraging the players to regain their confidence and feel in the third game, which is also the first home game in the series, and bring the fans a victory!
In this tactical analysis class, Bird gave the players more than 7 hours, from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., Bird analyzed the Bulls from the Bulls' tactics, playing style, habits, key people marking and various details.
It also taught the Pacers another lesson from the aspects of defense, positioning, communication, and details that need to be paid attention to when attacking.
The players ate from breakfast to lunch, and one look at Bird's bloodshot eyes showed that this guy hadn't slept since last night! He definitely spent the whole night doing this analysis and researching and getting it out to the players early in the morning!
The manager is already desperate! He's done everything he can and it's up to the players!
This kind of video analysis class is actually not just this one!
There was almost a four-day gap between the second and third games of the series between the Bulls and the Pacers, and they won't play the third game of the series until the 23rd, after playing the second game on the 19th.
So, for the whole four days, the Pacers not only had a long tactical analysis class every morning, but also practiced in the afternoon to get the players used to some new tactics and find the feel of the game.
The reason why there is such a long gap between these two games is not only because of the division finals, the league hopes that the four teams can rest well and not be in poor form because of the long journey, but also because in this gap, the league held this season's draft draw!
This draw is still related to the Pacers.
After all, the Raptors' draft picks are in their hands!
As long as the Raptors don't finish in the top three, then this draft pick is the Pacers!
So, even though the team trained very closely, Bird organized the whole team to watch the live broadcast of the draw in the stadium.
Under the reminder of Lin Tian and others, everyone's eyes were on the general manager of the team who drew the lot on behalf of the Raptors, and they were all looking forward to what kind of expression the general manager would face all this if the Raptors didn't get the top three.
In fact, in terms of probability, the Raptors are ranked second-to-last, and they will get a sixth-round pick at worst, and only the Nuggets have a higher probability of getting the top three picks than them, and the probability of them retaining their draft picks is actually very large!
But clearly, things don't work out as they should.
This year's draft is destined to make those teams who are struggling to the limit cry.
For example, the Nuggets, who won only 11 games in a whole year, won the worst record in team history and the bottom of the league, and finally only finished third, and the Raptors, who were second to last, followed the Nuggets and only got a fourth pick.
And when "Toronto Raptors, fourth pick!" When this sentence came out of Stern's mouth, Lin Tian seemed to be able to hear the invective coming from all of Toronto, and the general manager of the Raptors was also in pain when he got the fourth pick.
Fourth? Who the fuck wants a fourth!
It's rotten like this, and you have to make a wedding dress for the Pacers!
It's okay to make a wedding dress, they still have two draft picks to give to the Pacers in the next few years!
This transaction is definitely a blood loss!
This deal is also destined to become the first super bloody deal in the history of the Raptors!
They were pitted by Bird, an old fritter, who spit blood from the mouth!
In addition, the No. 1 pick was taken by the Clippers, the Grizzlies were drawn to the top of the list, and the Warriors finished fifth.
Everything was exactly the same as Lin Tian's memory!
It seems that the butterfly effect brought by my Lin Daguan is not so fierce!
"Well, I think we're going to have a young supertalent next season." Bird turned off the TV, looked at his players and said, "Now, everyone goes home to sleep, you have to go home for me tonight, I am not allowed to go to any field to have fun, and I am not allowed to take people home!" ”
"If I find out, I promise you'll regret it for the rest of your life! Everyone, I'm talking about everyone, get it? ”
"Understood!"
"Good." Bird nodded, looked at the players and said, "It's time to disband, tomorrow morning's training will be canceled, all have a good rest at home, recuperate, and then we will teach the Bulls a good lesson tomorrow night!" Let them know who is the real Eastern Conference champion this year! ”
After saying goodbye to his teammates, Lin Tian drove his Corvette alone and was about to go home, but before he could drive out of the parking lot, his phone rang.
After picking up the phone, Lin Tiancai found that although the effect of his butterfly did not affect this year's draft conference, it was likely to affect the draft conference every year after that!
"Lin, can you get your team to trade me? I want to go to Indiana! ”
The first sentence of the person who came made Lin Tian a little confused, where is this?
We're still in the playoffs, and you're going to make us trade?
But fortunately, Lin Tian heard who this person was.
So it didn't take it as a scam call and hung him up directly.
"Chris? Is that you? What's wrong with you? Lin Tian heard it, and the person who called was Chris Webber of the Wizards!
Well, according to Lin Tian's memory, he should be Chris Webber of the Kings now!
If memory serves, on May 14 of this year, the Wizards sent Webb to the Kings in exchange for several players led by Mitch Richmond.
Well, wait a minute?
Lin Tian recalled carefully, although he has been preparing for the Eastern Conference Finals recently, it seems that there is really no news that Webber has been traded?
He hasn't been sent away yet?
"It's me, Lin! It's me! My team, those bastards in Washington! Swindler! They said they were going to send me away, and they were going to send me to damn Sacramento! Who wants to go to that kind of ghost place! I've heard that there are only 3 nightclubs in the whole city! The chick looks like she just got out of the Amazon forest! ”
"Lin, I don't know who to call anymore, but I think you can help me! I really don't want to leave Washington! I swear, I really want to live here for the rest of my life! And even if I have to leave, I don't want to be sent to a place where birds don't! Lin, you must have a way, right? ”
A broken place where birds don't poop?
Lin Tian really didn't expect that Weber, who has not yet become the 'king', would be so disgusted with the Kings.
I didn't expect that this transaction, which should have happened last week, has not happened yet.
I just don't know, if this guy knew that the peak of his career was in that place where birds don't, and got everything there, he would be so repulsive!
"I know it's really hard for you to let you trade me now, but I don't have many friends in the league, and that idiot agent of mine actually said that Sacramento is not bad, and you can be the boss of the team there! I've fired him and now there's really no one to help me with, I hope you can help me with ideas! ”
"What about Zhu Wang? Aren't you guys good guys since Michigan? He can support you and let your team keep you. ”
