the rest, only noise

Chapter 1059 Magical Reality
On the night the Knicks took Tianwangshan, the results of Sabonis' MRI test came out.

God did not bless the City of Torn.

Another Portland Giant shot like an Achilles.

Portland officially announced: "Adavis Sabonis suffered a torn ACL in his left knee and will be reimbursed for the season."

In 1994, when arthroscopy and ligament repair were still in the experimental stage, even if ACL was not retired, it would never go back to the past.

There is no need to say much about the series of consequences of Sabonis' serious injury.

For the Portlanders, the injury came at an inopportune time.

Losing Sabonis, what can they do to pick the forbidden fruit called victory in the "Garden of Eden"?

Madison Square Garden is the Garden of Eden.

As we all know, the nickname came from a book that nearly destroyed the Knicks.

That book was like the "Jordan Law" in Louis's previous life, which had a lot of negative effects on the parties involved, but as time went by, it would gradually prove the correctness of the content.

The Knicks turned MSG into Eden, and they can't lose a game here.

The Blazers have lost Game [-] in the past two years, but now, they have to work hard to keep the series from ending in Game [-].

When the Knicks got off the plane, the reporter in New York put the microphone in front of Ewing.

They wanted Ewing to have something to say about the Knicks' upcoming seventh-peat.

But Ewing will also improve, so he won't do it if the flag is so obvious.

"I don't want to talk about it until we win the title."

Before the arrival of the sixth game, both sides have three days to rest.

In the past few days, Louis' home has become lively.

Because people came to visit one after another.

Wang Zhizhi, who had been playing games outside before, also came back.

At present, Wang Zhizhi is also a rising star in the American high school basketball circle. In his sophomore season, he averaged 26 points, 15 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 blocks per game.

He's been compared frequently to Chicago's super-genius Kevin Garnett.

College scouts believe that Garnett is more like an evolved version of Sampson, while Wang Zhizhi is a bigger Bob McAdoo.

Regarding Garnett's outrageous evaluation, let's not talk about it for the time being.

To say that Wang Zhizhi is a taller McAdoo...that's an exaggeration.

In Lu Yi’s view, it is enough for Wang Zhizhi to reach the level of Alvan Adams (Alvan Adams C/PF)⑴ in the future.

McAdoo couldn't think about it.

Although he is famous in this era because the Pistons sent the Celtics the No. 70 and No. 32 picks for him (finally selected Sampson and Thomas), but in the 14s, he was an unstoppable player, just like Nowitzki.

In all fairness, even if Wang Zhizhi realizes his talent in every capillary, it will be difficult to reach this level.

In addition to Wang Zhizhi, there are also foreign students from the Road School who are preparing to participate in the draft.

These people are mainly in the third phase of Luyuan.

Like Kang Chengbiao, Wu Qi... They all wanted to leave the university early after seeing Chu Nan successfully gaining a foothold in the league.

But some of them are not like Chu Nan and Du Shuai who are not valued in school. If they are not in a hurry to make money, it is feasible to continue to polish themselves in the university.

Among these people, the person Louis cares about the most is Liu Yuqing, the only seedling who lived in the United States for the first period.

He was sidelined for his senior season due to a torn meniscus, which cast a cloud over his draft prospects.

Fortunately, this year is not the year of the draft. Although Liu Yuqing's market will be affected due to a year of absence from the game and a history of meniscus injuries, but he will not lose the draft.

During this time, Liu Yuqing flew to more than a dozen cities to participate in trial training.

He came to New York today.

On the one hand, it is necessary to try out for the Knicks, and on the other hand, it is to visit Louie.

In the conversation with Liu Yuqing, Louis learned that many teams have given Liu Yuqing draft commitments.

"Why didn't you tell me how many picks they promised to pick you?" Louie asked intentionally.

Liu Yuqing said strictly: "This is a private agreement between us, I can't say it."

Louis nodded and smiled, "That's right, that's it. No matter who asks you, you have to say that."

On the same day, Liu Yuqing won a lot of applause for the Knicks' trial training.

In the words of Doug Mo: "Unless someone can use the second child to do what Liu did in the Blue Palace, otherwise, this is the best trial I have ever seen!"

For some reason, Lao Mo seems to be very obsessed with using his second child to drive the ball into the basket.

But he can say that, which shows how good Liu Yuqing's performance is.

That being said, Tomjanovich disagrees.

"If it were up to me to decide, I wouldn't choose him."

Rudy spoke surprisingly.

"Oh, why?" Louie asked.

Rudy said: "First of all, there is no shortage of this type of players in our team. Secondly, Liu lacks communication with other people on the court and always acts alone. Finally, he reminds me of MAR."

Rudy is not optimistic about Liu Yuqing's development after entering the league.

He thought Liu Yuqing would get into a lot of trouble, just like Rauf.

Louie was noncommittal.

Liu Yuqing is really introverted and doesn't like to communicate.

But to say that he is like Rauf is that Rudy himself is too sensitive.

Not every maverick is Rauf.

However, Rudy is right.

The Knicks are not suitable for Liu Yuqing.

The competition here is too fierce.

Miller could still play the starting spot for many years, and Reggie Williams, Doug Christie, and Alan Houston had to compete with each other for a little playing time.

If Liu Yuqing came to the team, based on his withdrawn personality who doesn't like to communicate with others, it is certain that he will buy a house in the position of DNP. Until the end of his rookie contract, he may not have the opportunity to show himself.

In the past few days, the Knicks have been very relaxed.

Sabonis is injured, and the Blazers' inside line is absolutely weak.

The championship seemed within reach.

The three-day offseason passed in a blink of an eye.

The evening of February 6
Madison Square Garden

When the NBC commentators talked about what the Blazers need to do to win, they made a point.

"MJ, Charles, and Isiah, these three need to perform above average, otherwise, the Knicks can easily win the game by virtue of their inside advantage."

They took a moment to discuss strategies the Blazers might use.

Finally, Bob Costas said: "Two screens in MSG's live big screen will broadcast hot news to the live audience."

Normally, Costas would not mention this specifically.

After all, how many fans who come to watch the game will pay attention to things other than the game?
But this time it was different.

Because the Simpson case continues to ferment.

When Simpson's lawyer was about to accompany Simpson back to the police station, he found that Simpson, who had been resting upstairs, had disappeared.

In the past few hours, except for the police, all the news media that can dispatch helicopters have been dispatched, and they want to find Simpson.

No one expected that at the beginning of Game [-] of the Finals between the Knicks and the Lakers, the helicopter team in the sky in Los Angeles finally found Simpson, so they contacted the police and locked the location. After a while, dozens of police cars chased him.

Dozens of police cars were chasing, or more accurately escorting, on the highways of Los Angeles: Simpson threatened suicide with a pistol, and the LAPD, with its abundant martial arts, unexpectedly restrained.

And this chase scene was broadcast live by the American media.

In the middle of the first quarter of the game, most of the audience at the garden site focused on the big screen above the arena, where the escape and chase between the Los Angeles police and Simpson were being broadcast live.

This magical and ironic scene really happened.

The garden was full of people, but less than [-]% of them cared about the result of the game.

No matter what the outcome of this game is, whether the Knicks successfully won the seventh consecutive championship, or the Blazers escaped and dragged the series to the seventh game, the number of cheering and excited people will be greatly reduced.

What people really care about is Simpson in Los Angeles, and the police who don't know if they can bring him to justice.

How exaggerated is this?
Louie was watching the game live in the living room, but his wife and mother rushed him to the small room because they were going to watch "The Simpsons" live in the living room.

Compared with this kind of ratings in the hundreds of millions, the NBA Finals with a ratings of up to half a billion is really insignificant.

The Knicks and Trail Blazers staged a classic battle that is enough to be recorded in history for the few remaining fans. The speed of the reversal, the number of legendary moments, the heavy price paid by both sides, and the final result are enough to satisfy those relatively quiet fans.

But so what?Fans who watched the game had only one question when it was over.

Simpson got caught?

I don't know if I can catch up with the live broadcast when I go home now?
