NBA Dynasty Sniper

The postman went down to deal with the wound, and Philadelphia replaced the backup forward Tony Kukoc.

The former Bulls champion member, once the best sixth man in the league, is still strong. He played more than ten games in Philadelphia. As a substitute, he can stably contribute 12 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4.4 assists. Sent a steal, both offensive and defensive have a comprehensive performance.

However, he couldn't show his ability against the more versatile Zhao Dong. Within 5 minutes of being on the bench, he was blown by Zhao Dong on both ends of the offense and defense.

Until the 9th minute of the first quarter, when the Postman returned to the court, 20:12, the Knicks had led by 8 points.

Both sides are on the bench.

For the Knicks, Zhao Dong continued to play and led the bench to challenge. The others were Barkley and Willis. The outsiders were Madman and John Wallace. He played point guard.

For the digital team, Postman and Iverson continued to play, and the other three were Teillon Hill, Larry Hughes, and Kukoc.

Zhang Fangyi laughed: "Now the American media say that the Knicks' bench lineup is not good. In fact, if Barkley and Willis play well, this rotation lineup is not bad.

It's just that Barkley seems to have gained a lot this season. With injuries, he can't jump at all, and his speed is slow. The state is really bad.

Willis is almost a thirty-eight-year-old veteran, and this season's state has also dropped by a notch. With two partners, the Knicks' bench interior does not perform well. "

Su Qun said: "I think this is a hidden danger. The Knicks management should choose to trade. Anyway, these two veterans have basic salaries, and it is okay to be laid off. Willis is indeed in bad condition, and Barkley’s injury does not know what it is. When it broke out, his weight increased and the load on his body became even greater."

As soon as his words fell, Barkley, who was jumping up with the postman to grab a rebound, suddenly cried out in pain, and fell to the floor holding his left thigh.

"Charles, can you still stand up?" Zhao Dong ran over and stretched out his hand to Barkley.

"Damn, Feilong, I regret that I died, I shouldn't have gained weight." Barkley, who was just rolling in pain and sweating, shook his head, regretting it.

"Are you gaining weight? You just didn't control your mouth and grew fat." Zhao Dong said angrily.

"Don't worry, I will come back." Barkley said quickly.

"Come on, look where you hurt? Your quadriceps are already swollen, and the lightest is torn. You should be mentally prepared to retire."

Pointing to Barkley's left thigh, Zhao Dong directly dispelled his illusion with a single sentence.

He remembers that in the last life Barkley retired this season because of a ruptured left quadriceps muscle. Otherwise, it would be no problem to play for two more seasons. In this life, this guy hasn't controlled his weight and won't be reimbursed in advance. strangeness.

"Hey, Feilong, don't give up on me, I can do it, I still have oil."

Barkley wanted to get up forcibly, but his left thigh was so painful that he couldn't move at all. The slightest movement was a violent sting.

"Don't worry, Charles, I will give you a quota of 5 million, and then you can retire to become a commentator. Anyway, you also have a ring, and your career is complete." Zhao Dongdao.

"real?"

Buckley couldn't believe it was authentic.

Zhao Dong and Willis helped Barkley down. The team doctor took a look from the sidelines and judged that the quadriceps of his left leg was broken.

The four-headed thigh is the big muscle on the front of the thigh. To strengthen the thigh, that muscle must be exercised, which is very important.

"It's over!"

The word break directly chilled Barkley's heart.

"Feilong, you said, five million yuan, I will pay you immediately." He immediately shouted at Zhao Dong.

"Don't forget, don't worry, I will take care of your family for you." Zhao Dong waved his hand.

"To you, I am going to the hospital, not to hell." Barkley scolded with a smile.

"I can still laugh, Barkley looks in a good mood." Hubby Brown teased.

"Maybe it's just a small injury." Cook laughed.

Barkley was sent away and went directly back to New York for surgery. Nelson was replaced by backup forward Gary Trent.

"Nair, we need to trade and reinforce, the inside needs, and the strikers also need it." After the game restarted, the old Nelson said to Grant.

Glenn nodded and said, "Tang, what trading chips can you allow?"

Old Nelson thought for a while, and said helplessly: "Three guards, you choose a trade, and Kevin Willis, his state is not good, you can figure it out, we have no other bargaining chips."

Nodding his head, Grant started to have a good deal in his heart.

In this game, the Knicks finally lost, 100:108, lost by 8 points.

Even if Zhao Dong played 48 minutes, scored 40 points, 16 rebounds and 8 assists, but the Knicks' bench did not hold up, Willis is still old and his state is obviously not as good as last season.

Iverson also scored 42 points in 48 minutes and hit 53% from the field. He was in a very hot state and was significantly higher than other games.

But the numbers team won, not because of Iverson, but because of the bench lineup.

The digital team's substitute scored 31 points and grabbed 19 rebounds, while the Knicks' substitute only scored 14 points and 11 rebounds, a big difference.

"Nima, I wanted to take Philadelphia, but I didn't expect to be killed." Zhao Dong was also helpless.

Of course, he also saw the shortage of the bench lineup, but the team still has places and can continue to strengthen, but he is not too worried.

At this time, Iverson accepted an interview on the spot.

"Allen, after defeating the Knicks, what do you want to say most?" a local reporter asked.

"The Knicks are nothing great." Iverson blurted out.

"Does it also include flying dragons?" asked a reporter from ABC TV.

"I can beat him this time, and I can end it," Iverson said.

Alongside, the postman was also being interviewed. Although Zhao Dong elbows his eyebrows, he won the game and he is in a good mood.

"Postman, what's the point of winning this game to you?" a local reporter asked.

"This victory can inspire me, and we can continue to win until we win the championship." The postman said excitedly.

"Postman, won a Feilong game, does it make you so excited?" a New York reporter asked.

The postman's face was stiff, and he said stiffly: "The victory of any game excites me, and I am eager to win."

An hour later, the Knicks conference was held.

"Flying dragon, do you have any thoughts on the team's lineup? Would you ask the management to make a deal?" a New York Times reporter asked.

"Barkley is likely to retire. He is an important rotating member of ours. We are now short of people. Of course I hope that the management will make some reinforcements, and the management will do the same. I don't need to ask for it or anything. "Zhao Dong said.

"At the beginning of the season, you said you had 100% confidence in winning the championship, what about now?" the New York Sports reporter asked.

"A failure can't shake my confidence." Zhao Dongdao.

"Next, the Knicks will continue to play away with the Spurs, Mosaic, and Lakers. How many games do you think the Knicks can win?"

A local Philadelphia Sports reporter asked.

"There are some difficulties, we will try our best to win more games. Specifically, Mosaic should be no problem, the Spurs and Lakers we will try our best, we still have a chance to win." Zhao Dongdao.

"Is there no confidence to win?" the reporter asked teasingly.

"Of course we have the confidence to win, but the game is contingent. Who can win undefeated? Are you?" Zhao Dong said coldly.

"this?"

The reporter was speechless by Zhao Dong.

After the conference, returning to the hotel, Grant called Zhao Dong to his room and asked him what he thought of the lineup.

Grant first said what the old Nelson meant, and then said: "I mean trading Ginobili. He is a newcomer. He is still a bit unsuited to the NBA. The statistics are average. I trust the other two more. What do you think?"

Zhao Dong thought for a while and said, "All three are good. You can decide for yourself."

He still sticks to his bottom line and tries not to interfere with the team's operation so as not to make everyone's faces ugly.

In addition, the three of them are indeed good. The trade is a loss for the team, but if there is a trade, there is no way.

Gran characteristic head said: "I will try my best to reinforce it first, if not, then I will trade. But before the trade and reinforce, the record may be affected."

Zhao Dong nodded and said nothing.

He will definitely not give up in the regular season. This is related to whether he can win the MVP for three consecutive seasons. If the team's record is not good, no matter how good his personal data is, the league will not give him this honor.

After leaving, Zhao Dong went directly to Old Nelson, and there were some things that needed to be communicated.

"Tang, I hope that in the next schedule, even if the team does not strengthen, we will try our best to win." Zhao Dong said directly.

"Why?" Old Nelson asked suspiciously.

He has even decided to give up some unimportant games before the team lineup is strengthened.

For example, the game against the West, this time playing the Spurs, Mosaic, and Lakers will not affect the Knicks' record in the East, and they can be given up.

With the current lineup of the Knicks, even if they don't trade or strengthen, they can easily make the playoffs.

If too much physical energy is wasted in the regular season, the main players consume too much, and even cause injuries, which may affect the playoffs.

Zhao Dong said softly: "Because I don't want to give up."

What he said was very simple, but the firmness revealed in his words, the old Nelson immediately felt it.

A fixed glance at Zhao Dong, the old Nelson did not think too much, the Knicks are Zhao Dong's team, he can only agree.

Zhao Dong wants to fight for victory desperately, and no one can stop him, including him, including the management, and boss James Dowlan.

The team leader is the soul and core of a team, unless the management and the owner choose to rebuild.

Zhao Dongdao: "I will play more time, and the rotation of others will remain the same to avoid injury."

Old Nelson reminded: "Flying dragon, you can't get hurt."

Zhao Dong nodded and said, "I know this."

He added: "The outside line is still handed over to the three of them. Fordson and I are inside, and Willis is on the bench. Tang, I think our lineup is actually okay, as long as the bench is strengthened, what do you think? ?"

Old Nelson smiled and said: "I think so too. Three guards, Ginobili is still adapting, the other two I think are mature all-star guards, at least the quasi-all-star level, we are only three. The height of the number position.

Even if it is the rebounding ability of the media, with you and Fordson inside, our rebounding is no weaker than any team. "

Zhao Dong nodded, exhilaratingly said: "One more step up the bench, we are still the most competitive team in this league."

At this time, Grant was contacting owner James Dawlan.

"Boss, the team needs to be strengthened and may need to pay more luxury tax. What's your opinion?"

"Luxury tax?"

Dawlan in New York has a headache. If it had been before, he didn't care at all. With the profitability of the Knicks, no matter how much luxury tax was enough, he didn't have to pay for it.

But now, he and his family have lost large sums of money on U.S. stocks. As U.S. stocks continue to fall, the market value of listed companies is rapidly evaporating. In the past three months, his net worth has shrunk by 40%. , More than two billion dollars less.

What he wants now is to take money from the Knicks, make up for his losses, and make him pay more luxury taxes, a little hesitant.

Grant felt Dawlan's hesitation, and Gordon said in his heart, what's the matter with the boss? This was not the attitude before.

If the team doesn't make up, how can he explain to Zhao Dong?

When Zhao Dong was renewed, the boss promised that no matter how much luxury tax he paid, he would never refuse.

This season’s salary cap is $34 million, and the team has now far exceeded this limit. Zhao Dong, Madman, and Stackhouse alone totaled 36 million, plus other salaries. This season The Knicks paid a luxury tax of $15 million, plus salary, the Knicks spent nearly $30 million more.

His idea is to trade one or two nice guys in and spend another 10 million dollars or so.

With the operating income of the Knicks, it is completely affordable. There is no need for the boss to take money from his pocket, but there is no profit.

When he was thinking about it, Daolan spoke over there, "Nair, just do what you think, what I said before counts."

"OK, great!" Grant was startled and excited.

Daolan smiled bitterly over there, and he also figured it out. Even if he could scrape some oil from the Knicks, it wouldn't cost much. If the flying dragon was offended or driven away directly, the loss would be incalculable.

On the 24th, the team arrived in San Antonio.

In this year's draft, the Spurs were unlucky and selected Kirilenko with the first round pick, but they would rather not play in the NBA than come to the Spurs. They only fall in love with the Jazz.

In fact, Popovich has some headaches, because this season is Duncan's contract year. If he offered a maximum salary contract for Duncan, then he would not be able to reinforce it.

The Spurs were beaten by the Knicks in the Finals last season and lost the championship. This is the first time the two teams have faced each other after the Finals. The media have different opinions on this.

But most media are optimistic about the Spurs.

After arriving at the hotel, at the request of the media, the Knicks held a press conference.

"Coach Nelson, what happened to Barkley's injury?" a reporter asked.

"Oh, it's very troublesome. The quadriceps muscle is ruptured. The operation has been performed, and the operation is still successful." Old Nelson said.

"Will he come back?" the reporter asked.

"He decides this for himself."

The old Nelson didn't speak bluntly, but Barkley has notified his new agent, Jordan's agent David Falke, that he is going to retire and also notified the Knicks general manager Grant, but it has not yet been officially announced.

"So for tomorrow night's game, how many chances do you think the Knicks have to win?" the New York Sports reporter asked.

"Our main lineup is complete, and we will try our best to win without reservation." Old Nelson said after taking a look at Zhao Dong.

Just half an hour after the Knicks' press conference, in New York, Barkley's new agent David Falke held a special press conference to announce his retirement on behalf of Barkley.

As a superstar, Barkley's injury retired, his influence in the United States is still not small, many media expressed their regrets, many stars sent blessings.

ESPN moved quickly. This afternoon, the Knicks, who had been in the first place, adjusted their rankings. The Knicks fell directly to third, with the Spurs first and the Lakers second, and the chance of winning the championship was only 40%.

"ESPN has always been pretty amateurish."

In a telephone interview with the media ~www.readwn.com~, Zhao Dong expressed his attitude towards ESPN's adjustment, and the irony was very obvious.

On the night of the 25th, the Spurs are at home and the game is about to begin. At 7:30, the two teams announced their starting lineups.

Knicks: Zhao Dong, Fortson, Sprewell, Stackhouse, Ginobili

Spurs: David Robinson, Tim Duncan, Jerome Corsi, Mario Ellie, Avery Johnson

On the TNT live broadcast, Bill Walton analyzed: "Although Barkley is injured, he is only a substitute, and his condition this season is obviously not as good as last season. He has not controlled his weight well. For a veteran, this is Very dangerous, especially as an inside player.

Therefore, in fact, the Knicks' strength loss is not large, as long as their main players play a little longer, they can offset the loss brought by Barkley. "

The horse characteristic head said: "But the Knicks still have to fill up the bench as soon as possible, and can't consume too much of the main body's physical energy in the regular season."
