The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 1062 Inside prosperous
When Mohamed Raouf returned after a suspension and Ramadan (also from the team), it didn't attract anyone's attention.
The New York media deliberately ignored him.
Because such a player is a disgrace to the entire team, and since the Knicks can't get rid of him, all the local media can do is make it seem like the person doesn't exist.
Raouf lost the privileges granted him under Louis.
He's no longer Stockton's first backup, doesn't have unlimited firepower, and can only watch games from the bench most of the time.
He's like a spectator with the best seats.
To Tomjanovich's surprise, he didn't complain.
Raouf accepted the arrangement, sat on the bench with peace of mind, and did not slack off during training, everything was as it was before his comeback.
After Raouf accepted his new role, the Knicks' internal issues were fine.
Tomjanovich led his team to a 66-16 record in his first season as head coach, ranking first in the league.
Besides the Knicks, there is a 60-win team in the West.
But this team is not the Portland Trail Blazers, but the Golden State Warriors.
The Warriors once ranked first in the league at the beginning of the season, but in the middle of the season, the young team also experienced ups and downs, and the final record was fixed at 60 wins and 22 losses.
From the point of view of the lineup, the Blazers, who should have won 60 wins, lost many games that they should not have lost due to continuous internal friction.
The Blazers won 57 games, not only inferior to the Warriors, but also to the Lakers.
The Lakers are second in the Western Conference with 59 wins.
The Blazers fell to the third place in the Western Conference. The team was extremely chaotic, mainly due to Riley's continued high pressure and Barkley's leading resistance.
Jordan is the soul of this team, and Barkley is an outsider, but he is undoubtedly the No. 2 for the Blazers.
When he voluntarily rejected Riley's coaching and got tired of the league's first-intensity training volume, contradictions and conflicts were inevitable.
In fact, on the eve of this year's trade deadline, Heat president and general manager Lewis Shafir nearly traded Hank Gaithers with the Blazers.
The deal was blocked by two factors.
One is Louie, who doesn't think swapping Gaithers for Barkley will bring about a qualitative change for the Heat.
One is the Blazers' greed. Gaithers can't satisfy their appetite. They want more.
For example, adding Reggie Lewis or something, they are willing to send Xavier McDaniel to balance the trade, "absolutely" will not make Miami lose.
While both Gaithers and Lewis have heart problems that prevent them from having the trade value they deserve, Shafir is not a Muggle.
There was no need for Louis to remind him, he rejected the plan without thinking.
So Barkley stayed in Portland.
Failing to trade Barkley, Riley could only give him the privilege and pacify the other party.
Louie has shown in New York how dangerous it can be to privilege players through the Rodman case.
The Knicks dealt with it by giving Rodman the privilege but taking him out of the starting lineup as punishment.
But the Blazers couldn't move Barkley out of the starting lineup.
That is to say, he enjoys the privilege without paying any price.
Can the atmosphere in this team be saved?
Louie felt that the "stars" era of the pioneers was coming to an end.
Thomas is getting old, Barkley is unbearable, Sabonis is not the decisive force, Jordan alone is not enough.
In addition to the conflicts within the Blazers team, people's attention is more on those big men.
This year is undoubtedly the year of the insider.
Sampson, Robinson, Shaquille O'Neal, Olajuwon, Ewing, Manning, Mourning, Malone...they all had career-best performances (or one), tops the league's scoring charts There are eight insiders out of ten.
Among them, the battle for the scoring title started between Sampson, O'Neal and Robinson.
Before the regular season finale, Sampson led by a narrow margin, Robinson needed 74 points in the final game to become the scoring leader, and O'Neal needed 56 points.
Chris Webber immediately announced: "I'm going to help our big guy win his medal!"
O'Neal said modestly: "Chris is too much. The scoring title is just a statistic, there is no medal."
To put it nicely, when it came time to brush the data, O'Neal didn't fall behind at all.
Webber gave full play to his coping ability, sending out 14 assists, 11 of which were for O'Neal.
O'Neal was not much, not much, and just scored 56 points and 14 rebounds in the closing game.
This means that if Robinson wants to win the scoring title, he no longer needs 74 points, but 75 points.
Although Robinson is a devout Christian, he also knows that some things are earned by themselves, and that God will not send the gospel to those who want something for nothing.
And so, a notorious wild score battle that went down in the history books began.
The Lakers' opponent in the final game is the Minnesota Timberwolves, the bottom of the defensive league, which provides a good background for Robinson to score points.
That night, the Timberwolves had no defense against Robinson at all, and witnessed the Lakers center score 76 points amid the screams of "Mr. Robinson, Yabi Yabi".
Robinson narrowly defeated O'Neal to become the scoring leader in the 1993-94 season.
It also brought them to the same level as David Thompson and George Gervin in 1977-78.
There have always been scoring champions in the final game, but it is only these four people who really attract the attention of fans all over the country.
In the first round of the playoffs, the Knicks met eighth-ranked Philadelphia 76ers in the Eastern Conference.
The 76ers, which have been rebuilding since the late 1980s, are on the right track after acquiring Alonzo Mourning.
Last summer, they traded for James Worthy, adding an all-around forward who averaged 22 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists per game on the wing.
That helped them make the playoffs this season.
Just bad luck, met the Knicks in the first round.
The arrogant "New York Times" put down the harsh words to the Phillies: "You can prepare to rest in peace, the city of friendship."
Arrogance is arrogance, but it is not wrong.
The 76ers and the Knicks are not in the same class.
This is also the first time Rudy Tomjanovic has led the team to play in the playoffs as a head coach. After two consecutive games at home, the match point is in hand, but he invited Louis to go away together.
But Louis refused, for the simple reason that he was not a nanny.
If the Knicks don't sweep the 76ers, Rudy's job isn't in place.
In the end, although there were some twists and turns, the Knicks still narrowly defeated the 76ers with a double-digit score advantage and advanced to the second round.
The Knicks' semifinal opponent will be between the Hornets and the Magic.
The addition of Webber's arrival to the Magic is obvious. This team, which was unable to leave the lottery last season, is fifth in the Eastern Conference this season.
Not only did they prove that they had the best talent in the league, but they also proved that in addition to talent, Orlando has enough immediate combat power.
It is also through the draft to complete the reconstruction of the team ~www.mtlnovel.com~ The talent accumulated by the Hornets obviously cannot be compared with the Magic.
Larry Johnson is slightly better than Webber at this stage, but O'Neal is an unsolved existence.
Glen Rice was out of order, and the Hornets dragged the series to the final Game 5 with the performances of Dale Ellis and Terry Porter.
Then it was ruled by O'Neal and Webb.
In the fifth game, O'Neal scored 42 points, 18 rebounds and 6 blocks, Webber contributed a triple-double with 22 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists, and Tim Hardaway also had 26 points and 6 assists.
Orlando stomped Charlotte's ambition to the bottom of her feet and joined New York in the semifinals.
