You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 113 The Office Situation in the Tower

The sinking of New York in the new century can, to a certain extent, justify the already stigmatized Patrick Ewing.

Everyone knows that the Knicks are called a giant because they are located in New York, and the glorious history of winning 30 championships with the Lakers and Celtics can only make people laugh.

Abandoning Ewing, New York began to decline, and then various accidents made Aaron Houston, one of the best guards in the history of the Knicks, lie on the bed and count money. The Knicks, who wanted to get rid of the big contract, led to the emergence of the "amnesty clause".This contraption, known as the Alan Houston Clause, was ultimately of no use to its owner.

Isea Thomas flashed the mysterious light for the first time: "I am amnesty! I am amazing the merit of the team, where will the stars willing to come to New York to play? Don't be amnesty!" Maybe we should praise the player's loyalty, but he doesn't seem to understand all the good time of Knicks. After the Daidi City was sent to Seattle, no players thought that the city had the slightest loyalty to the heroes.

CIC Wang continues to say "I'm ready", "I can come back at any time", "I can play for another 10 years" and other funny whispers year after year.

Thomas began to play with the power in his hands.

Throw away the madman who seems to be scrapped at any time, and get Marbury, the son of New York who has not undergone socialist transformation. After a gratifying 39-win season, the first round of the playoffs, and the New Yorkers shouting that revival is in sight, Thomas knocked himself on the head again. Why not introduce a single pick?Look, you can make the playoffs with Marbury, and a one-on-one player who is similar to Marbury may be more competitive.Who said heads-up players can't win the championship?Slap Jordan's story in the face every minute!
The Knicks welcome Jamal Crawford.

Crawford is a well-known one-on-one champion. In terms of one-on-one scoring ability, he is no less than an active superstar when he is in good shape. However, his existence swallowed up Marbury's possession of the ball, and the good chemical reaction last season was buried.

The Knicks are back to square one.

Thomas tapped his head again, yes, this is not going to work.

He has a whole set of plans to keep the lineup unchanged, introduce champion coach Larry Brown, and at the same time plan to replenish in the offseason. The most important person in his signing plan is Bulls center Eddie Curry.Although this kid has a heart attack and can't control his weight, can't defend, doesn't like rebounding, and doesn't like to win, has the league's leading pick-and-roll quality but doesn't like pick-and-roll like a clean freak—so what?We New Yorkers love weirdos like you!

Behind a series of reinforcement plans, there are also some temporary addition plans.

Like today's workout.

Versia's popularity in New York is extremely strong. He led the team to beat the national champion Connecticut at Madison Garden as a freshman and has accumulated a lot of prestige since then.Leading the team to victory this season and bringing the national championship back to Philadelphia, as he announced his participation in the draft, bringing him back to New York has become the most urgent wish of Knicks fans.

Marbury, the son of New York, has the following views on Wei Xia's possible joining: "He is a hard-working player who likes to run. It will be very interesting to play with him."

"Incredible passion and athleticism, transcendent leadership and execution, if we're going to get back on track, we've got to get Wish!" - The New York Times, May 2005, 5.

Madison Garden home announcer Walter Fraser, who is also a Hall of Fame player and the best point guard in the history of the Knicks, gave Wesha an extremely high evaluation: "We have fallen to the lowest point in history in all aspects. You can't see the Knicks worse. If you want to transform the team in a short period of time, you must have players who can change everything. Visa is the one who can bring about change."

As a result, the words of the old grand rogue are correct except that the conclusion that "we have fallen to the lowest point in history in all aspects" is a bit too optimistic.

That's the vibe in New York right now.

They want Wei Xia, very, very much.

But they only have the eighth pick in the first round. With Wei Xia's draft market, unless the Charlotte Bobcats, Portland Trail Blazers, and Toronto Raptors lose their IQs at the same time, there is no reason to let Wei Xia fall in front of him and not choose.

To get Wei Xia, a deal is the only way.

"Mark, does Larry have any comments on 'New York Hope'?" Thomas watched Weisha's trial training through the glass window of the office, and then asked another middle-aged black man in the office.

This person's name is Mark Aguirre (Mark Aguirre), the first NBA draft pick in the 20s, and the only one who was selected as a shooting guard in the 80 years before Allen Iverson.The 16 draft where Aguirre was in was a rare draft in which the top two picks were rounded up by guards.

The second pick in that draft was Isiah Thomas, who was in the same office as him at this time.

They came from the same class and had a close relationship. Aguirre went to the Dallas Mavericks, spent the peak years of his career, and was sent to Detroit in a key trade in 1989. His selflessness replaced Adrian Dantley's selfishness, and helped the Pistons break Lake Kai's monopoly on the championship, completely rewriting the league structure in the 80s and 90s.

Now that Thomas has developed, he naturally called his friends together.Aguirre, who has no coaching talent, is Brown's chief assistant. What he is best at is not advising Brown or arranging training. What he is best at is opening Thomas's office every day and telling him "What did that old bastard Brown do today?"

"'New York Hope' was late, and Larry was very dissatisfied, but his trial results were supported by everyone. This is his achievement." Aguirre put Wechat's report card on Thomas's desk.

Thomas smiled and asked, "What is Larry's attitude towards him now?"

"It's hard to say." According to Aguirre's observations, he thinks that Brown doesn't like "Wish", "but his trial results are too good, and Larry didn't show it. I didn't see a smile on his face from the beginning to the end. He must still be thinking about being late."

"Didn't see Larry's smile? What's that?"

The smiling assassin jumped up from his seat and said majesticly: "Ever since he walked into the tower and squatted, I haven't seen him raise the corner of his mouth to me. This rigid old thing is just like this, just get used to it!"

Uh, they obviously don't like each other, why do they have to force a couple together?
Larry Brown also has some valid reasons: I hate that stinking Thomas, I don't think the Knicks are even a basketball team, how can a professional coach come here to coach?Do you really think I'm a spineless person?It's just that they give too much money! (annual salary tens of millions)
Yes, for good reason.

Where is Thomas?He obviously looked down on Brown, but he still gave Brown an annual salary of tens of millions.After being given an annual salary of tens of millions, he still hasn't taken the other party seriously, and his words still have the meaning of "Ge Laozi, I will kill this bastard old thief and then quickly", what is he trying to do?

It's better not to guess. Under normal circumstances, you can't guess the answer. If you guess right, it means that you are as abnormal as the smiling assassin.
