Chapter 867: The Frightened Coach Road
The seven bloody games between the Knicks and the Trail Blazers were the best in terms of topicality, spread rate, commercial value and even the content of the game itself.
After watching Benjamin Wilson's "Te t", many observers invariably left a line in their observation notes: "Is this the best basketball game ever?"
Regardless of whether basketball historians agree that this series qualifies as the best series in history, more than 90% of the 51 million Americans who watched this game in front of their TVs believe that this series was a
A series comparable to last year's LB World Series.
The tie-break pushed the legend to its peak. The storylines needed by any group of viewers can be found in the game.
The Knicks' dynasty, forged with blood and tears, finally endured.
Patrick Ewing scored 26 points, 18 rebounds, 7 assists and 10 blocks. Dennis Rodman scored 6 points, 24 rebounds and 4 blocks, including 14 offensive rebounds. Sean Kemp scored 16 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks.
Three brothers teamed up to serve Portlanders a hot pot feast.
But in the end, the FVP of this legendary series belongs to Wilson, the "hero" and "conqueror" known to the world.
In the seventh game, Wilson was injured at the beginning of the third quarter and did not return to the field until the last six and a half minutes of the fourth quarter. He hit five three-pointers five minutes before the end of the game, finishing the game with 32 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists.
Averaged 35.4 points, 8.2 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 2.5 steals and 1 block, and was elected FVP.
This is the third time in six seasons that Bej has won the Finals MVP trophy.
In addition to these three FVPs, he also has a VP, was selected to the All-NBA Team five times (2 times to the first team), and was selected to the All-Defensive Team four times (3 times on the first defense). For a 25-year-old superstar, he has already
Standing at the top of basketball history.
I can pat my chest and say that the players who are greater than him in B history are nothing more than Big Dipper (data), King of the Ring (championship), Big Bird (honor), and Sky Hook (career length).
What if it takes another six seasons? How many of these people can be ranked in front of him?
This is the reason why the Knicks are never stable internally.
In the eyes of the world, Wilson deserved to win the FVP, but Louis found that Ewing was not happy.
His excitement level dropped a lot, but he couldn't complain.
Strictly speaking, he only played well once out of the seven games in the finals.
The other six games were below average, but Wilson performed at a high level in seven consecutive games. Winning FVP is nothing short of normal.
Wait until summer, there will be "controversy" in FVP.
Ewing's camp will give people reason to know why this non-controversial matter suddenly became controversial.
Louis can leave this matter alone for now.
After the finals, Louis and everyone selected for the Dream Team only had 8 days of rest.
On June 22, they will go to the University of Portland for the first training camp of the Dream Team.
In other words, Louis has 8 days to set the tone for the Knicks' offseason reinforcement direction.
The reason why the Knicks were forced into such a dangerous situation by the Trail Blazers is because injuries and bench depth are no longer as deep as they used to be.
If he hadn't met the Trail Blazers, even Louis himself might not have noticed that the Knicks unknowingly had many players who couldn't fight a "bloody battle."
Like Brad Rohaus, Angie, Maxwell, Selly, Jack Sikma.
There are 5 critical moments in the 15-man roster that cannot be used. If injuries occur like this year, the rotation will continue to be shortened. This is torture for Louis, who likes to play long rotations.
Fortunately, Wilson's injury, which persisted through the injury, did not escalate. This is fortunate.
"Both" Reggies will return in the new season. If the Knicks can stay healthy, their rotation will be enough, just like this year.
So Louis needs to bring in at least two reliable players.
The Knicks have the 5th pick in the first round this year (from the SuperSonics), the 22nd pick in the first round (from the Jazz), the 13th pick in the second round (from the Spurs), and their own 27th pick in the second round.
Like last year, this year is also a big year for the draft, and the media has frequently compared it to 1985 and 1984.
June 16
The Knicks have begun large-scale rookie workouts.
What Louis is most worried about now is whether they won't be able to choose Yu Tiancan?
Teams with the top four picks, like the Magic and 76ers, have predictable choices, with both O'Neal and Mourning booked.
The Timberwolves probably won't give up on Laettner, the best college player since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Then it’s the fourth pick’s turn, will the Clippers select Yu Tiancan?
If it were another team, Louis doesn't think he would choose.
The Clippers themselves don't need Yu Tiancan. They already have the twin towers (Mutombo and Schmitz). As long as they choose a good outside core, they can complete the hell-level task of professional basketball and lead Donald Sterling's team.
Entering the playoffs.
If they were in their right mind, they would not have selected Mutombo with the No. 1 pick last year.
Who would draft a center with the No. 1 pick when Schmitz is available?
You know, last year was also the draft, and the top five picks were said to be "there is no absolute number one pick, it just depends on the needs of the team." Normal people would have to choose Larry Johnson and Schmitz, right? In the end, they chose Mu
Tombo, and then continue to fish and draw cards early this season.
When facing such an opponent, even the Messiah in the basketball world would have a hard time predicting what they want to do.
It was on this day that Louis received even more disturbing news.
Yu Tiancan's trial training in Los Angeles was well received.
Clippers general manager Earl Monroe said: "He is like a taller Bob Lanier!"
In order to confirm the authenticity of this matter, Louis called Yu Tiancan specifically to inquire about the results of the trial training.
Yu Tiancan was very modest: "I don't think I played very well."
Is it a smoke screen? Oh my god, are the Clippers going to use smoke screens?
"They let the tall and thin big black stick and the big white stick fight against me one after another. I didn't suffer much, eh."
"Are those two people named Dikembe Mutombo and Rick Schmitz?"
"Yeah, yeah."
Louis hung up the phone, feeling even worse.
Will Yu Tiancan’s market price rise as a result?
Will he move up to third overall?
Will he be targeted by Minnesota breadcrumbs?
This is an unknown number. It stands to reason that the top three picks are as safe as old dogs. However, after Laettner, an extremely great college player, enters the field of professional basketball, he is destined not to be as great as he was in college. This is also a recognized fact in the professional circle.
In terms of upper limit, he is not as good as Yu Tiancan.
So it is not impossible for Klaus to really choose Yu Tiancan.
But various sources indicate that the Timberwolves will select Laettner with the third overall pick.
Louis usually only recognizes the results and does not look at these false and true sources of information.
Among the players the Knicks tried out today, three caught Louis' attention.
Two of them are top-six prospects, Notre Dame's LaFonso Ellis (LP Elli PF/F) and Maryland's Walter Williams (Wlt Willi F).
The former is a wing with excellent physical fitness but a small forward skill, similar to Shawn Marion. The latter was a player with outstanding shooting and defense in college. His agent team hyped him as "Te ext Bej".
Let’s talk about Ellis’ trial training results first. In fact, it’s not a big problem.
As a power forward, he is definitely a bit short, and his weight is not enough, so he needs to gain weight, but his skills are really eye-catching.
To scouts, he's a safe bet.
As long as you can gain weight, you can become talented.
However, his hidden dangers were already obvious during the trial training.
His style of play is violent, and when he dunks, he may be even more violent than Kemp.
Every dunk he made tried to detonate the court and bring a shocking effect.
Once this kind of player suffers a serious injury before successfully gaining weight, he will never look back.
As a short power forward, he has the skills of a small forward and his physical fitness is a selling point. However, if his physical fitness is damaged due to injury, a power forward with the skills of a small forward will be standard.
Lafonso is a classic "bust."
After watching half of his trial training, Louis was convinced that this guy would not be a success.
As for Walter Williams, who is known as "Te ext Bej", when Louis heard about this stunt, he was still looking forward to it.
As a result, during the trial training, he was guarded by Alex Stevens and was embarrassed.
If the video of this trial training is circulated, his draft prospects will plummet, and "Te ext Bej" will definitely become a joke.
His shooting ability is good. As a rookie, he has adapted to B's three-point line. However, as a rookie with the name of "Te ext Bej", his outside shooting is only impressive, his ball-handling ability is mediocre, and his defense only relies on his strong body to bully college students.
To give such a name to a guy who has no use in B-fart is really an insult to Louis' great treasure.
"Coach Lu, although I didn't perform well today, this is not the real me." ext Bej said self-righteously.
Louis wanted to tell him at that time that instead of calling him "Wlt", wouldn't it be more appropriate to just call him "Wter" (meaning: water)?
"Okay, I believe you have unlimited potential. Don't worry, I will always keep an eye on you."
Louis endured the discomfort and finished speaking, then turned to look at another player who was unforgettable to him, but this person had no lottery prospects.
To be exact, he may not even be a top-20 first-round prospect.
That is the famous Latrell Sprewell.
When Louis looked at him, Sprewell happened to be observing him too.
The two people's eyes met, and suddenly, Louis felt his neck tighten.
