NBA Legends Manager

Chapter 86
The Blazers replaced Miller, Bayless, Batum, Aldridge, and Camby for the final struggle!

But everyone knows that it is futile. It is impossible for the Blazers' offensive mode to play 2:15 in 0 minutes.

After 2 minutes, the game ended, and all the Thunder fans in the stadium stood up and applauded the players.

The Thunder led the Blazers by a big score of 107:92 at home, tying the series to 1:1, and the Thunder will play the Blazers away in the next game!
Immediately after the victory, Presti took the player back to the locker room, and instead of being interviewed by reporters who rushed out, he told them that they would answer their questions at the press conference.

The players immediately ran to take a shower, and Presti sat in the locker room and waited. After a few minutes, the players returned. Everyone changed their clothes, held their heads up, their waists straight, and followed Presti to the press conference.

In Presti, it was also a temporary decision to only accept interviews at the press conference, forgetting to tell them to make the table longer, but when Dangdang came to the scene, Presti also had to boast, knowing what I mean, Presti brought a full 17 players to participate, which should be unprecedented.

Presti, Curry, Westbrook, Durant, Ibaka, Jordan, Harden, and Jeff Green sat down in turn.

After sitting down, the reporter began to ask: "Presti, may I ask what is the key to winning this game, and what adjustments did you make to achieve today's effect after losing last time?"

"The key is that our players have played to their original strength. The adjustment is to tell my players to go home and relax, and give the opponent the first game as a gift," Presti said, shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands.

Go home and relax, send... to the opponent, you are so crazy, do the Blazers know?The reporter shot wildly, this is definitely news that provokes saliva!

"Presti, this is the second playoff game of your career. After losing the first game, did you ever think about winning the second game?"

Presti immediately showed the expression of the survivors, "No, after the first defeat, I was still a little bit confident, but after seeing the news the next day, I lost it at all. You must know that before the game, a legendary reporter wrote that the Thunder is vulnerable, and the series is over in three more games. I am under a lot of pressure!"

...Legendary sister, you are under a lot of pressure, and you are under a lot of pressure, and you are talking loudly before the game: kill the Blazers in 4 games?
"Some people say that the core of the Thunder's tactics is Curry, some say it's Durant, and some even say it's Westbrook, so who is the real core of the Thunder?" the reporter asked.

"Curry, Durant, Westbrook, and Harden can all be cultivated as the core of a team." Before Presti finished speaking, the reporters below gasped. They still dared to say that now, and the reporters shot wildly again.

When Presti read about these people, everyone had different facial expressions. The most surprising one was Harden. He always felt that he was a bit behind the top three, but he didn't expect Presti to value him so much, and he was a little secretly happy.

Presti continued: "But at present, the core is Curry. The reason is very simple. With Curry as the core, the role of the players will be maximized in the future, and you will understand later."

Although many people know that Curry is the core of the Thunder, they were still shocked when Presti said it himself. After all, Curry is a one-year show. This can be said to be the biggest news today. Well, it can be written like this, "Where did Presti put Durant? He actually recognized Curry as the core" is full of gimmicks!

When Curry heard Presti say that he was the core, he almost didn't cry. Although he felt that he was the core, he was not sure, who would use a one-year show as the core, and who would use a rookie who was looked down upon by the outside world as the core?
But Presti did it and gave him absolute trust!He secretly vowed that he would never betray his manager's trust.

Presti knew that he clearly stated that Curry is the core, and there must be other people in the team who have ideas, but now he has to do so. The longer the delay, the worse it is. It is very important for the team to clarify who is the core. Looking at the time when the Heat lost to the Mavericks in the future, it is not clear who is the real core.

The press conference ended quickly, and Presti left with the players. They will have a good rest tonight and talk about getting on the plane to Portland tomorrow morning.

The next day, the Thunder team led by Presti landed on the land of Portland. After getting off the plane, Presti shouted: "I see I conquer!" The Thunder players roared in agreement after hearing Presti's words.

After Presti and the players dropped off their luggage at the hotel, they went to the arena to practice, and tomorrow they will defeat their opponents in one fell swoop!
On the evening of April 4, the Thunder Trailblazers ushered in their third game. Just like the Thunder’s home court, people here love basketball and the seats are also full. Before the game, the Blazers officially announced that Roy will return for this game!

Roy's return not only rekindled the confidence of the Blazers fans, but also made the outside media more optimistic about the Blazers. Some media have even discussed whether they will lead the Thunder by more than 15 points at the end of the third quarter.

In the locker room, Presti smiled and said, "Why don't some media always remember to cry? Do they like being slapped in the face so much?"

Westbrook said categorically: "If the Roy they say is the starter, I will defend him, if he is a substitute... then I will go as a substitute."

Matthews, who has not played well all the time, said: "If you are a substitute, I will play against him!"

Harden is not to be outdone, what he just wanted to say

Presti said with satisfaction: "Okay, there is no need to argue. The injured Roy is not enough to prove. You don't need to focus on him. You can fight today as you did yesterday. As long as you play 60%, you won't want to go up and down. 80% can be like yesterday. If it's [-]%, it's probably dad beating his son."

"Haha" the players couldn't help laughing when they heard Presti's last "father beating son", and they were no longer so nervous for a while
When the time was up, Presti walked to the door of the locker room, waved his hand in the middle of the second class, and said, "Go, beat my son!"

The stadium is also loud, but Presti, as an "enemy", can't feel the hostility of this stadium. He believes that the players will not have it, which invisibly reduces a lot of pressure. Presti always believes that there should be a "murderous look" at home in the playoffs. This murderous look will make other teams feel uncomfortable. Uniform uniforms!Is a devil home basic, these blazers do not!
Well, this stadium, our Thunder has requisitioned it!
