NBA Ten Thousand Worlds Bishop

Chapter 157 Against the Bulls (Chapter 30)
If it weren't for the great momentum of the Kings and the opportunity to hit the championship, Petrie might not hesitate to make a deal with the Knicks.

He couldn't figure out how Davidson did it, it was simply a miracle!
In his opinion, only God can make people give up such a large fortune!

"Petrie, I'm not joking with you. After two years, I hope the team can properly make up for Battelle." Davidson said with a smile.

"That's natural. Compensation must be made. You should also know that it's not that we don't want to spend money to renew Battelle's contract. It's really limited by the rules. If there are no rules, we will definitely give Battelle a satisfactory contract!" Petrie said, patting his chest.

He is a little excited now. Battelle's promise means that the King's core lineup will not change in the next few years, which means that the King will be the top team in the West in the next few years, and his position as the general manager will be extremely secure!
"Wilson, you have to guarantee that after we give up the team option, Battelle will re-sign the contract with us, don't..." Petrie said with a tangled face.

If the team option is given up at that time, and Battelle runs away, then he, the general manager, will have only one end, being fired by the furious bosses.

"Don't worry, Petrie, if there is any trouble, I will bear it." Davidson patted Petrie on the shoulder, reassuring Petrie.

Petrie breathed a sigh of relief, and the image of Davidson in his mind became more and more mysterious.

It was strange enough that Davidson could take Muresan away from the Nets before.

Now being able to persuade Battelle to take one year less high salary is really a bit too magical.

What a high charisma it must be to convince Muresan and Battelle so much.

Anyway, Petrie believed that he would definitely not be able to do this, and he didn't know what the hell was going on. Now that Muresan and Battelle saw him, it was like seeing a ghost, and they couldn't avoid it.

……

Petrie excitedly went to contact the boss, and Davidson saw that the matter was resolved, that is, he didn't bother much about it.

The All-Star Weekend is over, and this year's regular season schedule is gradually coming to an end. Judging from the situation of the Kings this season, although they can't match the Bulls' regular season record, they can at least keep the No. [-] throne in the Western Conference.

At that time, it will be quite advantageous to enter the playoffs with the first score in the Western Conference and have the home court advantage from beginning to end.

There are too many strong teams in the West. Even though the King's current record is quite good, Davidson is not arrogant enough to think that the King can beat all the teams in the West.

Even if home court advantage doesn't have a big impact on the series, Davidson doesn't want to miss it.

After the Kings are removed from the West, there are still four powerful teams, the Jazz, Supersonics, Spurs, and Rockets, none of which are easy to mess with.

No matter which team you encounter, the Kings will definitely not be so easy to pass.

Even being killed by these teams halfway is not completely impossible. Anyway, Davidson is now mentally prepared.

Even if he is really killed halfway by then, Davidson will not be looking for death...

On February 2, the Knicks made an official announcement that their head coach Don Nelson resigned.

After Davidson saw the news, he couldn't help sighing.

He had expected this kind of situation. Old Nelson's behavior of selling Ewing before directly caused the whole New York to be outraged.

Fans, players, and management have all been offended. It's no wonder that Nelson can stay in the Knicks.

Do you really want to say that the old Nelson's trading plan is wrong?That's naturally true. In fact, if this deal is really reached, it will at least maintain the strength of the Knicks in the Eastern Conference for the next ten years.

Old Nelson is not the only one who understands this truth, but the Knicks team is quite complicated. Even if Old Nelson's approach is correct, in the end this meritorious old coach still ended in dismal.

Seeing that Nelson was dismissed, Davidson let out a long sigh, feeling more and more that the job of the coach is not so easy to eat.

People who can be successful in the coaching position are really good people.

Zen master Jackson is like this, Pat Riley is like this, even the father is definitely a human level figure.

"Illusionists" like old Nelson sometimes end up not so well.

Of course, the old Nelson is the kind of really capable coach, so he must not worry about work. After leaving the Knicks, he can easily find a new job.

On March 3, the Kings played against the Chicago Bulls at home.

March is the last full month of the regular season. Many teams will have a better record in this month, and the Kings are no exception. What they need to do most now is to keep the No. [-] position in the Western Conference.

This matchup with the No. [-] record in the East and West directly became the most watched battle after the All-Star Game.

The king has done a lot of publicity, and all the tickets for the game night are sold out.

Although the King's record has soared this season, the attendance rate is still not as good as those teams in the top big markets.

But tonight's battle, there must be no fans who want to miss it.

In the locker room, the Kings were extremely excited.

Especially Richmond, who was trembling with excitement.

Over the years, even if Richmond and Jordan have only played against each other twice a year, they have played ten times.

But in these ten matches, because the lineups of the two sides were very different, Richmond never even had the idea of ​​​​killing Jordan.

And now Richmond has the confidence to kill Jordan in his heart.

You Jordan has Pippen and Rodman, and I, Richmond, have the Muba Twin Towers. Who is afraid of whom? !
Tonight, Richmond is going to open Jordan's eyes and go to the strongest shooting guard other than Jordan.

……

Battelle and Muresan were not as excited as Richmond.

From their point of view, tonight is just a regular season with a lot of attention, nothing too special.

"Guys, take it easy and don't have any pressure. Although the Bulls' record this season is a bit too good, I firmly believe that we are no worse than the Bulls." Davidson shouted at the Kings.

Two-thirds of this season's schedule has been played, but the Bulls have only lost six games so far, and other teams in the league with good records rolled their eyes.

Playing at this pace, the Bulls will definitely be able to easily win 70+ games this season!

In fact, the King's record this season is already so good that it makes people jealous, and it can definitely easily break the record for team wins.

But compared to the luxury record of the Bulls, it is not enough at all, quite inconspicuous.

In terms of previous seasons, Davidson led the team to achieve such a record, and it will definitely be praised by various media.

But now the Bulls are too dazzling, taking away a lot of light from Davidson, which makes Davidson very helpless...
