the rest, only noise

Chapter 765 I Disagree
蓝宫
On Louis's desk, there are steaks, lamb shanks, BJ's roast duck and many other meats.

"start!"

He feasted on Brad Rohaus and Lionel Simmons and Elton Campbell in front of John Saley.

"John, I won't lie to you, this meat is really, really delicious!" Rohaus ate greasy.

Sely closed his eyes, didn't look at it, didn't think about it, and his mind was as still as water.

Louis seemed to see Fa Hai, who was seduced by the goblin, closed his eyes and chanted sutras.

They did it not because they were bored.

It was because Sely was bewitched by McHale and announced that he had become a vegetarian.

This made Louis very dissatisfied. McHale's vegetarianism caused his state to plummet after the age of 30. He didn't want Sely to experience the same thing.

Unlike McHale, who was a vegetarian before entering the NBA, Salley was suddenly lured.

It was a doctor who made the diet plan for McHale.

A few days ago, Sely met him by chance.The meeting rekindled his interest in becoming a doctor in college and made him realize that even being a world-class athlete did not guarantee that he would not develop deadly diseases, such as cancer.

Salley has had many loved ones die of cancer.

To Louie's surprise, the doctor convinced Sely that a vegetarian diet could prevent cancer.

Sely then embraced veganism and started eating organic, natural vegetables.

He had only started for a few days, and Louie had to stop him if he could.

When repeated persuasion was ineffective and forcing McHale to eat a piece of meat in front of Sely did not work, Louis resorted to his unique trick.

Let the three players eat all kinds of delicious meat in front of Sely.

"Coach, it's useless, my determination is very firm."

Sely closed his eyes tightly, unmoved no matter what.

Louie gave up trying to persuade him to turn back, but added a scolding to McHale.

If it weren't for him, Sely wouldn't want to be vegetarian.

Salley's switch to a vegetarian diet will not have much impact on the Knicks in the short term. McHale's state has declined significantly, and he is 30 years old.

Mainly, Sely's weight would be difficult to control if he was a vegetarian.

He was a key player in the system as the main player on the murder press team.Louie has always been thankful that basketball wasn't the most important part of Salley's life.For him, golf, baseball, gourmet food, TV shows, and guest appearances in serials are all more interesting than playing basketball.

He grew too tall and had to play, so basketball was just his bread and butter.

Probably for this reason, even if he has the ability to start in other teams, he will not leave like Hornacek.

He never raised the basketball game to the height of dignity, but he likes to win. The Knicks can increase his exposure and provide him with the opportunity to make his debut in Hollywood. Therefore, even if the basic salary stays in the Knicks, he is willing.He has a big tongue, loves to communicate with the media, is one of the Knicks' best players in the media, and has a good relationship with several writers.

None of these were problems for Louis, but now that he chose to be a vegetarian, it became a problem instead.

His mind is as firm as iron and cannot be changed.

Louis could only let him go.

The time came to 1991. In Louis's previous life, this was Jordan's first year.

But in this life, at least until the end of this season, it will not be Jordan's turn to take the lead. He should think about how the management should deal with Drexler.

In the first game of the new year, the Knicks suffered a second defeat.

The team that gave them this defeat was the Celtics.

Boston's Big Three worked together and scored 102 points.

Reggie Lewis gave Ewing and Wilson two pots each on the defensive end.

The Celtics thus ended the Knicks' 17-game winning streak.

At first glance, Ewing and Wilson's poor performance caused the Knicks to lose, but it was Kevin McHale who took all the firepower.

McHale's form has declined further this season.

Since being traded to New York in the 1986-87 season, he has been the team's starting power forward and the Knicks captain who is widely welcomed by fans.

But the leg injury he suffered that year, coupled with the long-term vegetarian diet, led to a decline in physical fitness and athletic ability.

Louis didn't want to equate his state with a vegetarian painting, but his state did get worse and worse.

Against the Celtics, the Celtics deliberately let Sampson play the fourth position to face McHale.

McHale was completely unable to stop Sampson.

Let Sampson score 34 points and 24 rebounds.

It's not McHale's fault that Sampson hits this kind of data, not to mention, who can fight against Sampson?
But public opinion is unreasonable.

Because behind McHale, there are two players eyeing the starting four.

One is Rodman, who has replaced McHale many times as the starting four.

The other is Kemp, the sophomore Rain Man who is officially the sharpest knife on the Knicks' second unit.

He averaged 20 points, 15 rebounds and 6 blocks in 1.3 minutes per game.

The top team, healthy environment, conscientious mentors and coaches who value him have led to Kemp's progress beyond Louis' expectations.

After overturning the Clippers and Nuggets in a row, the Knicks encountered the Celtics for the third time.

No matter what time it is, the Knicks and Celtics are always able to push out each other's limit energy.

In this battle, the Boston Big Three continued the good form of the previous game.

Sampson continued to play the four position.

McHale put away his idle attitude and faced the battle seriously.

When there is a grade gap in hard power, attitude and determination alone are useless.

Sampson usually hits 100% of his shots under the defense of McHale.

After that, Louis let Ewing and Sely as the twin towers face Sampson for a long time.

In the first half, Wilson caused Lambiel's fourth foul.

Sampson is the only reliable insider left for the Celtics.

With his strength alone, can he defeat the Knicks' insiders?
That thought was destroyed by what happened afterward.

Bird helped, and Thomas took advantage of Sampson's snapbacks every time he grabbed a defensive rebound.

After Ewing scored the 27th point, he was fouled out by Sampson for six fouls.

Even if Wilson scored 42 points, suppressed Bird's 29 points.

By the time Rodman and Shawn Kemp came into play, it was too late.

Sampson dominated the frontcourt and backcourt like a rainbow, playing 48 minutes, scoring 64 points, 23 rebounds and 9 blocks.

Wilt Chamberlain stats!

The Celtics sealed the victory with a tip from Sampson.

Afterwards, the Knicks' quasi lore layup made his ninth block of the field.

He hit a quasi lore and sent a lore block.

"I've been in this business for many years." Louis couldn't help but admire Sampson's performance. "Ralph is the most powerful player I've ever seen. His dominance runs from the backcourt to the frontcourt. His defense spreads from the basket to the three-point line. His offensive methods range from slam dunks to outside three-pointers. You can't beat such a player. He is not the only one. He is Mr. Perfect. He is the greatest center ever."

As the greatest head coach in active service, Louie's evaluation is no small feat.

Celtics star Bill Russell said: "Yes."

As arrogant as Chamberlain, after such a game, he can only say sourly: "I also scored 64 points and 29 rebounds, and even better data."

As a result, Sampson surpassed Jordan in the scoring list. With an average of 32 points, 15 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 4.6 blocks per game, he ranked first in scoring, first in rebounds, first in blocks, and No. 17 in assists.It is worth noting that he is the only insider among the top 20 assists.

Although the Celtics' record is not as good as the Knicks, they have only lost 5 games so far.

Sampson's dominant performance and statistics have allowed him to squeeze out the tragic division, Ewing, and Wilson, and lead the latest MVP prediction list without any suspense.

This year, he was 30 years old.

He has mastered all the skills, has a perfect body shape, and no longer relies on his physical fitness and athletic ability to play, but when he needs to use his talent, the brilliance he bursts out is unmatched.

Ewing and Wilson may be the pure honor No. 1 in the past two seasons, but if you want to find No. 1 from the perspective of hard power and offensive and defensive influence, this person can only be Sampson.

Sampson's performance made Ewing's original claim to blow him up sound like a drunken man's joke.

After three matches, except for the first game, in the other two games, Sampson played the [-]th position first to beat McHale, and then returned to the [-]th position to dominate the penalty area.

Critics make a point.

Could it be that Kevin McHale's matchup intensity was too low, which caused Sampson to play in the beginning, and then it was difficult to control?
There is some truth to this statement.

Inside the Knicks, Louis has decided to replace the five-year starter.

On January 1, before the game against the Pacers, Louis announced at the Blue Palace: "From today, Dennis will start as our starting No. 10."

"Crack, clap!" McHale clapped his hands excitedly. "Finally, this day has come. Damn, those reporters who don't understand the fart know how to scold me, as if whoever starts the game can stop Ralph, that's Ralph! They don't want to see how Patrick is beaten!"

Ewing was ashamed to face the reality that he was not as good as Sampson.

He chose to fight back against McHale's pain points: "That's better than you."

"Hee hee, I don't know who is the person who keeps saying that he wants to blow Ralph up." McHale seemed to be relieved, "That's fine, I don't have to face that big guy in the future, thank you for letting me go."

Old Mo couldn't stand it anymore, and cursed angrily: "You unambitious bastard, you've lost your starter and you're still happy there. If I were you, I'd turn my face on the spot."

McHale was trying to make a joke to lower Lao Mo's fire.

Then, Rodman said, "I disagree."

⑴ It is true that Sely became a vegetarian in 1991, but I have not found the reason.
