The Overlord of Basketball: 2K Possession

Chapter 156 Larry Brown
After returning home, the Heat's first opponent will be the Washington Wizards.

Especially last year when Jordan completely retired and fell out with the Wizards owner, the Wizards also stole the limelight.

The reason is this. Jordan owned a part of the Wizards shares a long time ago, and he can be regarded as the small boss of the Wizards.

However, the Wizards' performance in recent years has been very poor, and even the team's ticket sales are very mediocre.

The boss of the Wizards saw that this would not work, so he set his sights on Jordan as a small boss.

He hopes that Jordan can come back, not to mention that he can lead the Wizards to achieve results, at least he can sell tickets.

Among them, there must be a promise from the boss of the Wizards, such as remuneration such as Wizards shares.

However, there is another rule in the NBA, that is, NBA players are not allowed to hold team shares.

The boss of the Wizards had been prepared for a long time and asked Jordan to sell him the shares first. After Jordan retired, he would return the capital with interest.

Last year, Jordan officially announced his retirement, but the Wizards owner's mind has changed.

Although it's only been a few years, with the development of the NBA and the development of overseas markets, the value of NBA teams has been rising.

What's more, in the past few years since Jordan joined the Wizards, some tickets have been sold, but the results are very average.

What's more, although the results of the Washington Wizards are not very good, this is the capital of the United States after all.

In addition to economic benefits, political significance is extraordinary.

As a businessman, the owner of the Wizards team is naturally very clear that doing business is actually inseparable from politics.

So, he unceremoniously put Jordan together.

Not only did Jordan not get the extra shares, he even lost the original Wizards shares.

Following the Bulls owner, Jordan once again fell out with the Wizards owner.

If it weren't for this incident, it is estimated that Jordan would not take over the Charlotte Bobcats next year.

And Jordan, also from a first-line battle with the capital side, trying to protect the interests of the players' rebellious image.

Suddenly, he became Boss Fang, the most staunch supporter of capitalists.

In future labor negotiations, Jordan will still be on the front line, but he has changed from a rebel to an exploiter.

I don't know if it's the bad taste of other bosses, every labor negotiation pushes Jordan to the forefront.

Bosses: Let you compete with us for interests before, now, hurry up and protect our interests.

It has to be said that this is a huge irony.

Stronger than Jordan, he has made such achievements in the NBA, and he is even called a god-like person.

But even so, it is not so easy for Jordan to enter the upper class dominated by whites.

Long story short, let's get down to business, let's talk about the game against the Wizards again.

The Washington Wizards' roster isn't bad, but a group of decent players without an effective organization is just plain bad.

Last year's Rick Stackhouse is still there, but without the unlimited firepower, the data is greatly reduced.

Last year's average of 20+ per game is only 15+ now. Of course, it has something to do with his fewer shots.

Speaking of Stackhouse, it is estimated that many people know him. After all, he provoked Jordan in the new season and was severely taught by Jordan.

Then, as a player who has already logged into the NBA, he singled out Kobe, a high school student, and was abused again.

There is also CIC king Larry Hughes, as a player obsessed with one step ahead of the three-point line, his efficiency is not much higher.

These two, plus last year's Jordan, to be honest, the team's lineup is not bad, but it's a pity that they can't make the playoffs.

This year, Jordan is gone, but there is another Arenas, yes, the one who plays with guns.

As last year's Most Improved Player, Arenas began his rise, officially becoming one of the NBA's most brilliant No. [-] agents.

It's just that even Jordan couldn't organize this team, let alone Arenas.

The Wizards' tactics are very stable, basically Arenas singles, and then Larry Hughes singles.

After Arenas finished his singles, Stackhouse continued his singles, and then asked Larry Hugh to continue his singles.

If the two teams fall into a chaotic battle, the Wizards may still win by virtue of their offensive ability.

It's a pity that they are facing the Heat, neither Stan Van Gundy nor Chen Mo will let the game fall into chaos.

Without any surprises, Arenas scored 20 points, Stackhouse also threw a dozen balls, and Larry Hughes broke through and scored 5 or 6 goals.

Then, the game was over and the Wizards lost the game.

Chen Mo played very well in this campaign, with 15 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists, the first triple-double in his career.

The main reason is that the Wizards are really defenseless. Whether it is Larry Hughes or Stackhouse, they only have the basket in their eyes.

In fact, Larry Hughes' defense is not bad, after all, he won the steals king and the best defensive team.

However, facing Chen Mo, his physical flexibility and keen judgment were not enough.

As the saying goes, one thing is one thing, Chen Mo is most afraid of encountering offensive players like Artest and LeBron.

For a player like Larry Hughes who relies on skills but doesn't have much defensive ability, Chen Mo can handle it with ease.

Larry Hughes couldn't guard against it, and the others couldn't guard against it either, so they could only watch Chen Mo playing relaxed and freehand.

Chen Mo tried his best to organize the offense, but let others play well. Brad Miller scored 22 points and 9 rebounds, Eddie Jones also scored 24 points, and even Caron Butler scored 18 points.

In the end, the Heat won the game 109:95 without bloodshed.

It is not surprising to win the Wizards, but the back-to-back is the important game for the Heat.

The opponent in the next game is none other than the Detroit Pistons, which is next year's championship.

It is estimated that at this time, except for Chen Mo, no one thinks that the Pistons can win the championship next year.

In comparison, the Lakers, Spurs, and even the Mavericks and Timberwolves are more champion-like, and even the Pacers are better than the Pistons.

Speaking of the Pistons and this civilian champion, we have to talk about their head coach, Larry Brown.

Well, a big devil who picks fruit.

Is Larry Brown a good coach?

Of course, he won the best coach of the ABA three times, led the team to win the NCAA championship twice, and was also elected the best coach of the NBA.

It's just that, in the NBA, he has been to many teams, and although he has achieved good results, he has never won a championship.

Phil Jackson once said: "There are not many coaches who can enter the Hall of Fame without winning a championship?"

I don't know if this sentence is really praising Larry Brown, or it means that he can't win the championship.

After all, in 2002, Larry Brown was selected into the Basketball Hall of Fame, but Phil Jackson, who already holds 9 championships, was not.

To be honest, it must be very uncomfortable for anyone to stand in Phil Jackson's position.

Don't say that Americans don't talk about sophistication, isn't that just sophistication?
