436 Things Are Big
The day after winning the Knicks, the Warriors flew unstoppably to another city on the East Coast, Minneapolis, Indiana, where the Pacers' nest is.
Old Nelson suddenly found Chamberlain and said, "Hey, don't you call your fellow countrymen to congratulate him? He did a good job yesterday."
Chamberlain was puzzled, what happened to Yi Jianlian? He played very well yesterday? So he quickly found a newspaper to read. He could not answer calls or access the Internet on the plane, so the staff of each team would prepare a large number of newspapers and magazines on the special plane, all of which were valuable reports in the past two days, leaving them for the players and coaching staff to watch.
No wonder Old Nelson asked Chamberlain to call Yi Jianlian. They played against the Heat at home yesterday. Although they lost in the end, if Wade did not have the magical performance of 14 points in the last 4 minutes, it would be a game belonging to Yi Jianlian.
In yesterday's game, Yi Jianlian performed very well. He made 7 1 shots and 6 shots, contributing points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists and 1 blocks. In this game, his score, rebounds and assists were the highest in the team. However, his teammate Harris was injured and had no future game and Carter was not in shape. Although he played well, the team still lost.
Of course, Wade played better, especially when he scored 14 points by himself in the last four minutes. Iverson and West didn't understand the game. After all, they were so tired last night that they went back to bed after the game. Now they heard Chamberlain's surprise, so they went to see it together. After watching it, West sighed: "This is my role model."
Iverson curled his lips disdainfully and said, "Help me up and try it."
Chamberlain said angrily: "Try it, we're about to fight with the Heat. Then you two don't show mercy. You guys will get 14 points in the last four minutes. I believe that as long as you can get l0 points in the last four minutes, our team will definitely win."
Chamberlain browsed the newspaper. Although the team lost, the American media still gave Yi Jianlian a very high evaluation after the game. Of course, Chamberlain not only paid attention to Yi Jianlian, but also Winnie. Sure enough, during the post-match interview, Yi Jianlian emphasized Winnie: "I am particularly grateful to her. She helped me a lot and taught me a lot of things I didn't understand before. Of course, I also thank my national teammate Chamberlain, because Winnie is his full-time training, but I ask her to help train me for the time being. I am very glad that I have met such an excellent trainer."
Winnie's training is indeed effective, it's a miracle. Yi Jianlian was an overrated soy sauce man last season. Although he can't be the leader of the Nets this season, he has repeatedly played at the core level and his popularity soared.
EpNh commented that Yi Jianlian's current changes are shocking: "He is no longer the hesitant and confused foreigner. He is more confident and courageous now. Look at his performance after getting the ball. He just wants to put the ball into the ring or send it to his teammates who should score the goal. This is different from before. In addition, his ability to pass the ball is surprising. Now Yi Jianlian makes us think of an old guy, yes, that's Divac."
Yahoo Sports also gave Yi Jianlian a high evaluation. Their editors believe that it was because Yi Jianlian made consecutive shots at the beginning of the second half that he could help the Nets score a 6-summit, which was able to turn the lead from l point to 2 points.
The New York Times also focused on the game, and their title was: "The Nets performed a shooting performance, but did not take away the victory." The article said that Yi Jianlian was a highlight of the game, and he made consecutive passes in the third quarter. It was Yi Jianlian's outstanding performance that forced Wade to show all his outstanding skills. In previous games, Wade missed 9 shots, but in the game against the Nets, he scored 4.
Most importantly, Yi Jianlian's performance was recognized by Nets head coach Frank. He said at a post-match press conference, "Yi needs to take on more responsibilities. When Devin is away, it is not enough to rely on Wen Si alone. Yi is a guy worth relying on. I feel relieved to hand the ball over to him to deal with it. Someone once told me that he should prepare some sets of tactics for Yi. I thought it was unnecessary at the time, but now it seems that I am too stubborn."
Yi Jianlian played well, and Chamberlain was also very happy. Yao Ming's foot injury was getting worse and worse, and there was a possibility of retirement at any time. Sun Yue was thrown into the NHDL by the Lakers. I guess he couldn't continue to play in the NH. If Yi Jianlian couldn't play well, Chamberlain would become China's only NHAI player. Although that would be even more dazzling, Chamberlain did not like the feeling of being cold at high places.
After getting off the plane, Chamberlain immediately called Yi Jianlian and said happily: "You are very good, brother, there are triple-doubles. I have only got one triple-double so far. You are so amazing. I hope you can continue to play like this next time when our two teams meet."
Winnie's confidence training played a role. In the past, he was praised, but Yi Jianlian must have said modestly that it was just a lucky person. He only played this time, and his teammates helped him. After Chamberlain praised him this time, he said frankly: "I will continue to play like this, and of course I have to rely on my teammates to give me the best. They all scored the balls I passed yesterday, which is very good. Winnie taught me to use my vision and athletic ability to help my teammates score. This is a good way. Do you want to try it too? It feels great to pass the ball and assist my teammates to score."
Chamberlain smiled and said, "That's it, I prefer to score and grab rebounds. Of course, assists and blocking are also very good."
Yi Jianlian also wanted to easily get 15 rebounds or even 2 rebounds like Chamberlain, but his ability to confrontation did not meet the standards and is now focused on developing towards the position of the organization's forward.
Finally, when he arrived at the hotel, Chamberlain lay down to rest. Yi Jianlian said before saying goodbye to him: "At the same time, I would like to thank Coach Nelson for helping me thank you. Many of Winnie's teachings were conveyed by his advice. Since the Olympics, he has also given me a lot of guidance, but I can't say it in public, otherwise it will make people misunderstand that I will surrender to you."
Chamberlain immediately joked, saying, "Then you join our team. We welcome it. Anyway, you are just a rookie contract now."
Yi Jianlian knew that this was a joke. He didn't plan to leave the Nets because he told him that Winnie also vaguely saw that Nets boss Carter is no longer in New Jersey. Since Kidd went to Dallas, he also wanted to leave this team and join a team with the ability to win the championship.
The Nets also know this, so they are trying to find a way to straighten Harris as the boss. Harris is good, but it is just a good one. Yi Jianlian now has an ambition, that is, if Carter stays, he will loyally assist Carter and then become the second in command. If Carter leaves, he will find a way to become the boss.
Yi Jianlian was not convinced by Harris. He didn't understand the reason. In fact, the reason was very simple. Winnie taught him to fight for everything. Now his personality has the temperament of a wolf.
Chamberlain just hung up the phone with Yi Jianlian, and the hotel door suddenly rang, and the sound was urgent. It was obviously not the waiter who knocked on the door. He opened the door, but Curry's anxious face appeared in front of him, "What's wrong?
Curry was so anxious that he couldn't speak. He pulled Chamberlain to Old Nelson's room quickly, and calmed down and whispered: "Al and Old Tang had a quarrel. It was a big quarrel. Chauncey and Allen were there to persuade them. When I went there, I heard Old Tang say he wanted to trade Al."
Chamberlain almost urinated when he heard this. What the hell is this? Do these people think that the Warriors have too little trouble and the lineup is too stable? Indeed, the Warriors didn't sign up much in the summer just let go of O'Brient and Pitrus, but after the start of the game, there were too many things, especially the trading of Ellis, which had a great impact on the team.
As a result, the Ellis trade ended less than a week and Harrington started to make trouble again? That's a big deal.
Harrington's door was not closed. As soon as Chamberlain pushed it open, he heard the old man roaring angry: "You full class, he thinks he is a superstar, he wants to get more, he questioned my arrangements. Of course, I think he is indeed a good player, and many teams are coveting him, so if he wants to be traded, I will satisfy him. Swear to God, I will definitely satisfy his wish."
On the eve of the season, several teams discussed deal proposals with the Warriors, including Eddie Curry of the New York Knicks and Jamal Tinsley of the Indiana Pacers. These proposals have been publicly exposed, but the Warriors have no interest. Old Nelson once told reporters that Harrington is a non-sale product for the Warriors.
The transaction was indeed a hot topic at that time, especially this time, the Pacers, who tried every means to trade with the Warriors, so they wanted to get Harrington. The Pacers wanted to give away was Jamal Tinsley, which was very interesting. His situation could be said to be exactly the same as Marbury.
Tinsley has not played a game this season despite his health. The Pacers said as early as September that their team did not want Tinsley anymore, but they would not buy out Tinsley's contract, but would try to find buyers who are interested in him. At the same time, Tinsley is free to arrange his life and does not have to follow the team to fight.
Therefore, Tinsley has not even spent more time in Indianapolis this season in the past year than the US President-elect Barack Obama.
Speaking of which, the Pacers' general manager Bird Bird is indeed a character. Tinsley is the same as Marbury. The former has not made any noise at all, while the latter has caused the city to be full of storms, which has caused the entire Knicks to collapse now.
The solution to Big Bird is that if you don’t want someone to stay on your team, don’t let him show up with the team again. Let him go to Las Vegas to play, as long as the checks are not a problem, he won’t get entangled with you. For the team, he is just a name on the roster, and the team can also start doing whatever they want.
This "clear" approach has its benefits, at least there will be no disobedience or refusal to play - because he did not sit on the sidelines in his jersey at all. If the Knicks did the same thing against Marbury, they might have found a next home for Marbury now.
Back to the point, after Chamberlain entered the room, Old Nelson was roaring, while Harrington was indifferent, and Iverson pulled him to comfort him constantly, but he obviously did not take the answer to heart, just looked out the window coldly.
Billups was busy persuading Old Nelson. When he saw Chamberlain coming, he hurriedly pushed Old Nelson down beside him, and then through the old man's roar, Chamberlain knew what was going on.
It turned out that when he arrived at the hotel, the old man was anxious to urinate and couldn't wait to enter the room and search for the public toilet of the hotel. As a result, in the toilet, he heard Harrington's call. Although he didn't hear everything he said, the old man heard this: "Mr. Walsh, I will consider your proposal carefully, and I also hope to cooperate with you again."
After hearing this, according to the usual style of the irritable old Nelson, he should have rushed out of Harrington, but he did not do so because there were many reporters in the hotel. He did not want to make this happen, but waited until Harrington entered the room and he chased in and kicked out the matter.
For Old Nelson, this patience was absolutely painful. His players actually contacted the general manager of the leaping team. What is the difference between this and a man wearing a cuckold? So after Old Nelson entered the door, he did not play any tactics such as repairing the plank road and secretly crossing Chen Cang, surrounding Wei to save Zhao, leading snakes out of the hole, and pushing a cart. He asked Harrington directly what it meant.
"Do you know how he asked me?" Harrington suddenly interrupted, and he sneered, "This old guy told me, bastard, are you, he, what shameful things did you carry me on your back? You bastard, you bastard."
Chamberlain's scalp was tingling. Today, things were in a big way. He knew that the problem was definitely not caused by the title of Old Nelson. Old Nelson liked to curse people the most. He didn't know what he said before, but no one cared, and Harrington didn't care.
This time Harrington used this sentence to say that he really planned to tear his face. He just used this sentence as a shield, and this is just a reason
