the rest, only noise

Chapter 1436
At halftime, the Lakers led the Knicks by 74 points 59-15.

They rested in the locker room for 5 minutes before returning to the scene.

At this time, the Staples Center fell into an inexplicable nostalgic atmosphere.

I saw George Mikan, Slater Martin, John Kundera, Jim Pollard's wife and a group of Minneapolis Lakers players came to the court one after another.

Except for Pollard, who died a few years ago, all the main players of Minghu came to the scene.

Since McCann's lower body was paralyzed and he could only sit in a wheelchair, the head coach Kundera was responsible for giving a speech for Minghu.

Kundera is a humorous person, which seems to be the standard for dynasty coaches.

You must have a mouth that can speak well in order to fool players into working for you.

"The dynasty of the Minneapolis Lakers was built with an annual budget of 5 to 10 dollars, George's thick glasses, Jim's body hair and Slater's defense. Everyone else, including me, is a burden attached to them." Kundera's joke made the scene very happy, "I want to thank them for leading us to success."

Minghu no longer has meaning and value for many people.

Because it's impossible for Los Angeles people to watch their games.

People now only know that McCann could not survive in the 24-second era. Martin is a white version of KC Jones who is less than 1.8 meters tall and has a career shooting percentage below 40%. Pollard is known as the most athletic forward in the early and mid-50s.

It's just that because they are pioneers and trailblazers in the NBA, they must be respected.

Louie stood aside, wondering how he and his players would be viewed in another 50 years.

Perhaps at that time, four-point balls will appear in basketball, so creatures like Shintaro Midorima will appear in the real world, and subversive changes will occur in basketball games. All existence in the era of three-point balls will be regarded as ancient and outdated things, and then people at that time will also study them like ancient creatures.

Kundera's speech did not take too long, about 10 minutes, everything is over.

In the end, everyone at the scene watched McCann's No. 99, Martin's No. 22, Pollard's No. 17, and Kundera's No. 665/85 (the total number of regular season and playoff games coached by Minghu) and five championship flags including the BAA championship in the 1948-49 season, all raised to the roof of the Staples Center.

With the happiness of the famous team in history, the Lakers were in full swing in the second half.

Although the Knicks can rely on hard talent to fight against the Lakers to a certain extent, the overall maturity of the Lakers is much higher.

McGrady has just stepped into the All-Star field, Hill lacks self-confidence, Ewing is too old, Miller has no touch tonight, and the Knicks do not have the conditions to pull the Lakers down in all aspects.

In the whole game, 132 to 110, the Lakers beat the Knicks by 22 points and got a good start to the new season.

After the second day of the home opener, the Lakers rushed to Minnesota like a market.

Speaking of which, the Timberwolves missed five championships because of short-sightedness.

From the perspective of geographical inheritance, the Timberwolves are far more qualified than the Lakers to inherit Minghu's five championships. Sadly, a bad team like the Timberwolves who had no hope before last year has no need to recognize their ancestors.

Therefore, the Lakers naturally have to act first.

The current situation of the Timberwolves is not optimistic.

Danny Manning, who just earned a little impression points last season, ate himself into a fat ball. Both his competitive state and athletic ability have plummeted.

What kind of unicorn is a unicorn insider without his athletic ability?
Fortunately, Manning's foundation is there. Even if he can't rely on athletic ability to play, he can still use his shooting touch to maintain an output of 20 points per game.

It's just that Manning in the form of a fat ball has changed from the original defensive core to a defensive loophole.

When the Lakers put Barkley in fat pig form against Manning, the scene was simply unsightly.

This is a disgrace to the NBA!
There are two authentic big fat pigs arching each other on the field. What should the audience think?
Those two fat pigs look so stupid, but they make tens of millions of dollars a year, are you mad?

Louis believes that there will definitely be fans who refuse to watch NBA games because of the existence of such unprofessional players.

Fortunately, Barkley is the only pig on the Lakers, and the situation is still manageable.

Moreover, Barkley's transformation into a fat pig was not due to the lockout.

He is always like this even when the league stops, but no one expected Manning to do it like this.

The consequence of this is that Manning's image has completely collapsed, and he is now a player with all kinds of poisons.

Unfaithful to his home team, threatened to force Gong; going to the super team is not honest, Gongdou left Sampson and wanted PUA Petrovic, was sent to Minnesota for a year, and then ate himself into a ball during the half-year lockout.

But seriously, so what?
Manning got everything he wanted.

He forced the Pacers because he wanted to change to a competitive team to win the championship, and he got his wish; he fought against Sampson because he wanted to be the boss, and he got his wish; he PUA Petrovic because he wanted to sign a top contract with an annual salary of 2000 million, and he also got his wish.

Although his reputation is basically at the level of street rats, he has achieved all his goals. Now in the Timberwolves, he has no desires and no desires.

In this way, Manning is also a winner in life to some extent.

Even if he was a scumbag, he would win.

Seeing Manning put himself in such a state, the first reaction of the Timberwolves was not to trade immediately, but to let him lose weight.

As for whether the weight will be lost or not, it depends on whether Manning is willing or not.

Even if he is determined not to lose weight, the Timberwolves can't help it.

Louis came here and finally became convinced that Manning is the most disdainful player in the league. From the management to his teammates, he will not let anyone go. As a wage earner, he can yell like the little fat man who tainted the dish of Jiuzhuan large intestine: It's worth it!

Another interesting thing happened in the game against the Timberwolves.

Barkley made a leap forward with a pig and overtook Manning to score 2+1.

Then, Barkley challenged Manning with his domineering steps: "You have today too!"

Manning, who couldn't hold back his face, jumped up and pushed Barkley. After Barkley reacted, he punched him directly, and the scene became chaotic for a while.

Fortunately, the Lakers are still mostly pacifists. No one took advantage of the chaos to fight. After quickly pulling people away, the referee gave Manning T and Barkley the second-level criminal.

Barkley was ejected on the spot.

Seeing this scene, Louis thought to himself, does this count as repelling each other?
Moreover, compared with Manning, Barkley is the one who is less disdainful, but also gets everything he wants.

After the game, Barkley uttered nonsense: "Danny Manning is just a disgusting bitch. He is best at superficiality. I don't take this kind of thing! Let me put it here, I can beat him when I play basketball! He is not my opponent in a fight! He knows my phone number, and if he wants to solve it privately, I will accompany him at any time!"

Barkley, backed by youngsters in the locker room, sat down like a king as Garnett and Bryant asked about the feel of an uppercut to the face.

"One word, it's cool!" Buckley said arrogantly, "It's really against that bastard. If you dare to fight with me, Sir Charles will never let him go lightly. See him beat him every time!"

Louie, who was speechless about the whole thing, could only say in the media access room: "Any general manager who wants Charles Barkley to play for you, please call me, I've had enough of that bastard."
