Lin Yu sat down for a long time and glanced at Pat Riley faintly.

At this moment, Pat Riley has a smile on his face that can't be concealed, and he has become the proud god operator coach again.

Kobe Bryant's finger injury is not the kind of injury that can affect his career, especially the finger of his left hand, but it may affect Kobe's next appearance in the Eastern Conference finals.

Once Kobe Bryant can't play, who on the Wizards' side can handle Jordan? It's entirely possible that the Wizards were taken out by the Bulls.

Thinking that he might have ruined Lin Yu's low-hanging fruit championship, Riley was extremely proud, even if he lost this round of the series, even if he was shaved his head, what could he do? If you can't win the championship, don't dream of the championship!

The game on the court continued, because it was two free throws and one throw, and after Kobe Bryant's free throw, it was still the Wizards' possession.

Maddie took over the offensive load, making a quick stop in the front court and scoring two points.

When it came to the Heat's offensive round, Tim Hardaway happily advanced with the ball, and he glanced at Bowen not far away, his face full of disdain.

Has Lin Yu's donkey skills been exhausted to such an extent? No one on the Wizards bench? Sent such a thing.

Seeing that Bowen was standing there without moving, and had no intention of following Tim Hardaway, Maddie frowned and had to go up and follow up on his own.

He didn't understand Lin Yu's intentions too much, obviously the Wizards still had Jalen Rose and Nash on the bench, how could he send Bowen up, even if he got Billups? He at least looked more reliable than Bowen.

It's not that Maddie is biased against Bowen, but it's all in the Eastern Conference semifinals, and it must be prioritized to assign more powerful players to the court.

Maddie stepped forward to defend Tim Hardaway with doubts.

Tim Hardaway suddenly changed direction and wanted to break through from Maddy's side, and Maddy's defensive pressure was not as good as Kobe's, on the one hand, his defensive attributes were not as good as Kobe's, and on the other hand, his defensive style was far less wild than Kobe's.

This change of direction is extremely beautiful, Tim Hardaway has not been a star for nothing for so many years, there is still something under his hands.

However, as soon as he rushed beyond the three-point line, the soles of his shoes appeared in front of him, not one, but two.

After Bowen rushed wildly, he jumped into the air with the help of a run-up, stretched his legs straight, and kicked Tim Hardaway on the head with both feet.

The kick was so powerful that Tim Hardaway was kicked and flew out on his back, and after falling to the floor, he fainted directly.

Everyone gasped, what kind of trick is this? Since the creation of the NBA, no one has committed malicious fouls in this way.

No, it's not a malicious foul anymore, it's almost real murder.

Lin Yu was also taken aback, he didn't expect Bowen to directly enlarge his moves as soon as he came up, and used his unique stunt Heavenly Remnant Foot.

This scene on the court reminded Lin Yu of Bowen's classic famous scene, he flew up and kicked Szebiak in the face at the time.

Szzambiak is a well-known handsome guy in the league, and there are countless fans outside the circle, and Bowen's kick almost disfigured the handsome guy.

Now Bowen was even more ruthless, almost kicking Tim Hardaway in the face with both feet, leaving Hardaway unconscious on the spot.

Riley was crazy, the hair on his sideburns had exploded, and his fingers trembled and pointed at Bowen on the field.

Mourning's body is getting worse day by day, Tim Hardaway is Riley's only remaining hope, if he does something good, the Heat will not have to play next season, and will simply compete for the top pick.

Riley was terrified, a strange gurgling sound came out of his throat, and he wanted to open his mouth to curse Bowen and Lin Yu, but he couldn't.

He was frightened, Lin Yu's viciousness was far beyond his imagination.

He thought that Lin Yu would swallow his anger and ignore Tim Hardaway's malicious foul in order to take care of the overall situation and win the championship.

He thought that in this confrontation with Lin Yu, he had the upper hand and made Lin Yu suffer a dumb loss.

However, he still didn't know Lin Yu well enough, and it was already good to say that Lin Yu would revenge, and in Lin Yu's eyes, there was no overnight revenge at all, because he had to be avenged that night.

Want to scrap my Kobe? Well, don't keep your Tim Hardaway and scrap it.

The referee's whistle was about to smoke, and Bowen was given a second-degree malicious foul and ejected him from the game.

Then the team doctor at the Heat's home court entered the court on a stretcher and carried Tim Hardaway, who was still unconscious, off the court.

Lin Yu didn't sympathize with Tim Hardaway at all, and he should have thought that he would end up like this when he committed a mischief against Kobe.

Bowen has a complicated mood, he knows that he will be labeled a villain from now on, if he can be a good person, who wants to be a villain?

However, he had no choice, and facing a three-year, $4 million guaranteed contract, it was his only option.

Become a villain!

Become Lin Yu's full-time thug!

Lin Yu looked at Bowen on the field and nodded slightly, this action made Bowen feel a lot more at ease, he knew that his three-year guarantee contract was in hand, at least he didn't have to worry about displacement in the future, and he didn't have to worry about living on the streets in the next life.

The game ended in silence as the Wizards beat the home team, the Heat.

Instead of celebrating, the Wizards left the court under the leadership of Lin Yu and returned to the locker room to check on Kobe's injury.

The team doctor had already bandaged Kobe, and everyone sighed when they looked at Kobe's middle finger wrapped in carrots.

"Man, we're brothers and sisters, I've been injured for two months, and you're at least unable to play in the next game."

Maddie's face was full of regret, and he still wanted to compete with Kobe Bryant for the MVP of this year's Finals.

"Brother, don't worry, even if you can't play, we can definitely beat the Bulls and bring you a championship ring."

Webb sighed.

Kobe Bryant stood up directly, "What are you talking about?" I just broke a finger, and I wasn't paralyzed. ”

"Breaking my finger will affect my shooting at most, but not my defense."

"There's no way I'm going to miss the playoffs against the Bulls, and that's the most important reason I joined the Wizards."

Lao Qiao was half angry, and he couldn't wait to go up and slap Kobe Bryant twice, but he was so angry that he still wanted to play.

Of course, Lin Yu can't let Kobe Bryant play, and the situation of the Wizards is not difficult to that extent.

However, seeing Kobe's stubborn appearance, Lin Yu didn't open this mouth, and he will talk about it when the time comes.

……

At the post-match press conference, Riley unusually didn't say anything more this time, because he knew very well that no matter what he said, there was no way to affect Lin Yu.

The disaster is Bowen's breakthrough, even if the league bans Bowen for ten years, what impact can Lin Yu have?

The biting dog doesn't bark, Riley doesn't want to bark, it doesn't make any sense.

Lin Yu simply didn't go to the press conference, and returned to the hotel directly with the generals, and asked Unseld to play a player contract that night, and then signed a three-year, $4 million contract with Bowen.

"Bruce, no matter how much you lose this time regardless of your ban and fine, I will make up for you."

"Since you joined the team, I haven't had time to talk to you properly, so I just took this opportunity to talk to you."

"Man, what kind of player do you think you are?"

Lin Yu asked with a smile.

Bowen shook his head, "Boss, I don't know. ”

"I don't have the skill of Kobe, I don't have the physical talent of Tracy, and I wake up from nightmares every time, and every time the nightmare is that I get cut by the team."

Lin Yu patted Bowen on the shoulder, "No, you will definitely not be cut by any team next." ”

"Mark my words and you're going to be one of the best 3-and-D players in the league, you're going to be the best championship puzzle."

"I'll give you a starting start for a while next season and you're going to show what you're capable of."

"I'm going to sell you to a certain team and then you'll be in the starting line-up."

"There's no way to be an All-Star, but I can guarantee that your contract in the future will never fall below the middle class."

Bowen looked at Lin Yu with a shocked face, is he really as good as Lin Yu said? He wondered if he was dreaming, and if he could really be the starter, he felt like he could smile at Jiuquan.

Of course, he never expected to be the starting point of the Wizards, which is simply impossible, and a quasi-All-Star like Jalen Rose now has to play off the bench, how can he compare with Jalen Rose.

Bowen was filled with confidence in the future for a moment, and he felt that he had kicked his own future.

……

The next morning, the league officials punished Bowen in time.

Bowen is a nobody, and Tim Hardaway is a first-line star, after all, he has been selected as an All-Star for two years in a row, and now Bowen is doing this to him, you can imagine how big the punishment is.

22 game bans, plus a $15,000 fine!

Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh, in fact, under normal circumstances, Bowen kicked Szebiak, and he was not banned at all, but only fined $7,500.

At the moment, this punishment is too strong, and a large part of the reason may be that Bowen's presence is too low, and heavy punishment of such a player can set an example.

In fact, Stern punished Bowen so heavily, which is due to Lin Yu, with Stern's understanding of Riley, in the next fourth game, Riley will let his players return the favor with a tooth for a tooth.

Severely punishing Bowen right now can at least make the Heat players have some scruples.

Bowen didn't care much about this punishment, after all, Lin Yu said that he would make up for his losses, and even the heavier the punishment, the happier Bowen was, and he could win some of Lin Yu's preferential treatment.

……

At noon, Lin Yu received a call from Stern.

"Lin, Kobe's injuries are okay, right?"

As soon as Stern opened his mouth, he asked about Kobe's injury, and it seems that Kobe does have a special place in his heart.

Jordan is old, the league needs a new signature star, and there are only three or two people who are most suitable for Stern's requirements at the moment.

Kobe, Maddie and Iverson, Ray Allen is not good, his style of play is not gorgeous enough, his appearance is also lacking in characteristics, and he does not have a superstar appearance.

Iverson's gangster aura was too strong, and Stern didn't like it very much.

Maddie has been drooping her eyelids, unable to see a positive image of struggle, and Stern is not very optimistic.

Kobe Bryant became his only optimistic successor to Jordan, hardworking, strong, strong, and with a good image, anyway, he fulfilled all of Stern's fantasies.

Lin Yu couldn't cry or laugh, Tim Hardaway was like that, and Stern actually came to care about Kobe, which was really more popular than people.

"The injury is okay, after all, it is a left hand, and it will not affect the future games." Lin Yu told the truth.

Stern breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, Pauline's side has agreed." ”

"For $130 million, I can transfer the equity to you."

"He agreed too simply, and it was clear that the follow-up venue rental fee would pit you, and I advise you to think about it again." How could a person like Stern not see Pauline's little abacus.

Since Pauline lost control of the Wizards, he has actually lost interest in the Wizards.

A thing that has been played with by himself for more than thirty years is suddenly defiled by others, and Pauline doesn't want it anymore.

Since Lin Yu wanted it, Bolin thought about simply selling it, anyway, there was an opportunity to repair Lin Yu in the future, and Washington was still his territory after all.

After Lin Yu pondered for a moment, he decided to agree, the price was a little higher than he expected, but it was completely acceptable.

He is interested in building a dynasty in the Wizards, and when the 98 maximum salary regulations come out, and then with the blessing of the dynasty, Lin Yu is confident that the market value of the Wizards will reach 500 million US dollars.

Lin Yu's current fifty percent equity cost less than $120 million, and then spend another $130 million to acquire the remaining fifty percent equity, a total of less than $250 million, and it will be doubled in less than three years, and this deal can be done!

"Deal!"

"Mr. Stern, I may have to borrow ninety million dollars from you."

"The interest is as much as it should be, and I will try to repay the 90 million US dollars in a year."

At present, the charm value is already 38 points, and seeing that he can earn 50 million again, and when he waits for a blank aura next season, he may have another 50 million in the account, Lin Yu is not worried about not being able to repay this money.

Stern was happy, who would have thought that the NBA would be able to start a lending business, and the interest of 90 million US dollars is not a decimal, and in a year, the league can receive 10 million in interest.

It was agreed with Stern that when the next away game is over, he will return to Washington to sign an equity transfer contract with Pauline, and Lin Yu will become the sole owner of the Wizards!

……

That night, Lin Yu saw Stern's face on TV again.

Today is the time for the annual regular season honor awards, and Lin Yu called a group of Wizards players to his room.

First of all, some management honors.

Unsurprisingly, Unseld was re-elected General Manager of the Year, the first time in NBA history that anyone has won this honor.

There is no way, the Wizards are really rebellious this year, with 73 wins in a single season and countless fierce generals in the team.

Although everyone knows that this is Lin Yu's transaction, the credit for the transaction must still be attributed to the general manager Unselde.

Lin Yu smiled, not knowing what Unselde was happy to be in Washington.

In Lin Yu's eyes, Unselde is his family, and Lin Yu is naturally happy that he can win the award.

The next COY, that is, the best coach of the year, did not have any suspense at all, and Lin Yu won it.

No matter what aspect you think about, Lin Yu is the only person who deserves it.

Then there are a number of miscellaneous awards, such as Finance Officer of the Year, PR Manager of the Year, and Alliance Toucher of the Year......

Lin Yu didn't even know what the meaning of these awards was.

After the management's awards are over, it's time for the real highlight, the regular season player honors.

As is customary, the rookie award comes first.

The Rookie of the Year of '97 was won by Duncan, and Maddie's performance was certainly not bad, but unfortunately he was injured for a few months in the middle, resulting in missing out on this award.

However, even if he is not injured, it is extremely difficult for Maddie to win this award, he has a lot of highlights, but his average data per game is not as good as Duncan's.

The situation of the bus is similar, because he has to share the appearance time with Big Ben, so the data is not as good as Duncan.

Duncan's average of 21.1 points, 12 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game is really ungodly for a rookie.

Next up is Duncan, Big Bus, Peja, Maddie and Green Kai's Mossell.

All three rookies from the Wizards were selected for a while.

Then there was the rookie second team, and Billups didn't make the cut, sitting in the corner with an awkward look on his face, looking overwhelmed.

As a Tanhua, he didn't even make it to the second defensive team, which is indeed a very embarrassing thing.

"Hey, Chauncey, don't take it personally, maybe you'll be an All-Star next season."

"Who can afford the honor of a rookie lineup." Webb stepped forward to comfort Billups.

Maddie continued: "That's right, this kind of honor has no gold at all, and among all rookie honors, there is only one best rookie with a little gold content." ”

"It's a pity we didn't get it."

Billups's heart warmed, he was actually really embarrassed that Moser was selected for a while, and he did bad things with Moser at the beginning, and then Moser didn't have anything to do, and he was traded.

In the face of strength and potential, Green Kai does not care about human feelings at all.

Now that he has arrived at the Wizards, although he has very little playing time, at least he feels the care of his teammates.
