The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 760 who hasn\'t come from a champion

,!

The Knicks set the location of this year's preseason training camp directly at the Blue Palace.

The coaching staff usually arrives earlier than the players.

Louis came early.

After Doug Mo's arrival, Zhao Yuanzheng's functions have undergone some changes.

At the beginning, the team's defense was trained by Tomjanovich and Billy Donovan, and the offense was trained by Zhao Yuanzheng. Although he is not a professional offensive coach, he has a good sense of the offense and can accurately find faults.

Now, as soon as Lao Mo came, Louis directly asked Zhao Yuanzheng to take off the offensive coach's job and focus on managing the scouting department, making game plans, and his first assistant.

Sometimes, Zhao Yuanzheng is not like an assistant coach, he is more like a management executive.

In the entire coaching staff, except for Louis, only Zhao Yuanzheng wandered around in various departments.

Now, Zhao Yuanzheng came to Louis' office to report on what happened this summer.

"Although all parties have made a lot of noise, there is no large-scale transaction except for the Lakers."

This is also one of the more bizarre features of this year's offseason.

Barkley of the Bulls, Drexler of the Trail Blazers, and Isiah Thomas of the Celtics all clamored for a trade, and the team also wanted to trade them, but the trade did not happen.

They all want good assets, but where are there so many good assets?

During the period, Celtics general manager Jane Walker even called the Knicks and proposed to trade Thomas for Stockton + Rodman.

Baylor didn't even have the idea of ​​giving Louis feedback on this kind of proposal of treating people as fools, so he let people get out on the spot.

The attitude of the Blazers is the most subtle. They want to trade Drexler, but who do they want to trade?

Buckley? The last thing the Blazers lack is the wing.

Isiah Thomas? It's a good idea, but they don't need Thomas that much either. Because there is an above-average Terry Porter at the point guard position. Promoting Porter to Thomas is of course a huge upgrade, but they have to deal with Porter's contract later. And Porter has a good relationship with the big guys in the team, which involves all aspects of human relationships.

The Trail Blazers and Celtics are the main competitors of the Knicks.

It would be a good thing for the Knicks if they keep the bomb and don't trade.

In this way, they only need to care about the Lakers.

The Lakers could be the winners of this year's signing season.

Kevin Johnson was dealt with at the end of the season. Although he suffered a bit, the capture in the free market was enough to recover the loss.

The Lakers signed Jeff Hornacek to a seven-year, $14 million contract.

Signed Sam Perkins for another 6 years and 21 million.

They made perfect use of the summer when the salary cap skyrocketed and effectively strengthened the team's lineup.

The strength of the Lakers' reinforcements makes their lineup look very strong.

The reinforcements of Perkins and Hornacek are aimed at the losing points of the top finals.

Hornacek does not occupy the ball, can play two guard positions, and has tempered a powerful three-point shooting skill in the Knicks; Perkins is the earliest space five in history, and can play twin towers with David Robinson , can play high and low positions with Divac, and it is even more suitable for a big ball-holding core like a tragedy teacher who dreams of space.

"We won't play the Lakers in the finals for three consecutive years?" Louie asked with a smile.

Zhao Yuanzheng couldn't laugh: "It's very possible."

"Yuanzheng, it's a good thing to have an opponent, be happy." Louis couldn't help saying when he saw Zhao Yuanzheng's bitter face.

"Actually, I'm not worried about the Lakers." Zhao Yuanzheng said, "I'm worried about ourselves."

"What happened to ourselves?"

"Benj's new contract has had a lot of unintended consequences."

"Oh, you said this."

Louie took out a bottle of Coke from the self-service vending machine.

"Old Lu, don't you think the atmosphere in the Blue Palace has changed?" Zhao Yuanzheng asked.

What Zhao Yuanzheng was worried about, Louis had foreseen it when Wilson signed the contract.

"Expedition, don't worry about internal changes. In fact, what I fear most is internal changes." Louis said unexpectedly, "A few years ago, our team was a bunch of recruits, and none of them won their own in the league. The position, and the salary cap is not as big as it is today. Everyone starts from scratch. Moreover, we are still facing a behemoth like the Celtics. Now, we have become a behemoth ourselves. You, me, and them are all champions The championship has the benefits of the championship, so Jeff signed a big contract and went to Los Angeles. Benj will become the highest earner in the league in the new season. Why are they the only ones who can make big money? I believe everyone is still holding the old contract Everyone thinks so."

Zhao Yuanzheng listened silently, and suddenly asked: "Then, what shall we do?"

"Wait and see."

Gu DiAt 2:30 in the afternoon, all Knicks members assembled.

Ewing, Stockton, Alex Stevens, Kevin McHale, Benjamin Wilson, John Selley, Rodman, Reggie Miller, Brad Rohaus, Danny Ainge , Shawn Kemp, Doug West, Reggie Williams, Elton Campbell, Lionel Simmons.

Even if the Lakers sign up, Louis doesn't think the opponent has a chance to win.

With the exception of McHale, the Knicks' other starters appear to be in very good physical condition.

Ewing and Wilson have obviously grown stronger.

The muscles on Ewing's shoulders are the most obvious. His shoulders were never so wide last season, and he doesn't look like a human being now.

Louis was also surprised by a change in another person.

Sean Kemp, the talented high school student who was favored by Louie as a baby last season, did not slack off in the offseason.

According to Willis Reed, he's been Ewing's henchman all summer.

Wherever Ewing goes, he goes.

Ewing likes to maintain his form at Georgetown University, so Kemp also went to Georgetown, and there was an anecdote about a dunk on Dikembe Mutombo's head.

The two new rookies seemed to be trembling.

They know where they've come.

"Every year at this time, I have to tell you some repetitive things, and I think you are tired of hearing them." Louis said with a smile, "I won't say anything redundant. From 1986 to now, We all aim for the championship. After we won the championship in 1988, the crown has been on our heads. A lot of people say that the 90s are not the same, yes, it is different, because of the old guys who ruled the 80s The whole body is rusted, but we are young. This is our era, we must firmly hold it in the palm of our hand, and hope that everyone will move towards the goal of defending the title and demand ourselves with the standard of a champion."

As before, the status of everyone is detected by players teaming up to play against each other.

Ewing's "Jamaica Star" and Wilson's "Great Shoulder Wind" determine the draft order by guessing.

Wilson won the No. 1 pick in the 1990-1991 Knicks draft.

With the first pick, he chose Rodman.

After that, Ewing's second and third picks won Stockton and Reggie Miller respectively.

"Patrick, Reggie is my love, you can't take someone's love away!" Wilson said with a smile.

Ewing said coldly: "Who told you not to choose him first?"

"That's right, I'm so disappointed in you, Benj!" Miller said unhappily, "I'm a member of the Jamaica team this year, and I'm sure I'll **** you all hard!"

Wilson's choice was very pragmatic. Rodman was selected with the No. 1 pick because he valued his defense. Since Ewing robbed Stockton and Miller, the Giantshoulders' defense line must suffer, so he simply surrounded the flanks. to build the team. Wilson's second and third picks were Reggie Williams and John Saley.

He still doesn't pick a pure linebacker.

It can be seen that there are obvious differences in the selection of players in the two positions.

Ewing values ​​guards because he plays inside, and he knows the importance of a good guard.

Since Wilson does not choose a guard, he will leave the opponent with no guard to choose from.

Jamaica's third and fourth picks are Danny Ainge and Sean Kemp, respectively.

"You two **** don't think much of me as the captain, do you?" McHale said unhappily, "No one wants me, right?"

"How can it be, Kevin, I'll choose you now."

The two options after Wilson are McHale and Alex Stevens.

Four players remain, Rohaus, Doug West, Elton Campbell and Lionel Simmons.

Rohaus was not wanted, Ewing chose West~www.mtlnovel.com~ The other two rookies were rejected on the grounds that they were not familiar enough.

In this way, two teams formed through the Knicks' internal draft were formally established.

Once the lineup is established, there will be no major changes.

If they do not cooperate tacitly during the season, they can initiate a trade swap.

The other three players who were not selected can also be recognized through their daily performances to join one of the teams.

This is a competitive system unique to the Knicks, which clearly divides players into two factions, competing against each other to promote each other's improvement.

"Don't be sad, those guys should look down on you, and they should. They are all champions, you have to work hard to catch up!" Lao Mo comforted a few rookies.

Hearing these words, Luo Haosi was heartbroken: "Who is not a champion!!"
