After many years of core play, Ewing has long forgotten about the forward stuff, but in order to score points efficiently, the gorilla has also practiced actively.

Running tactics and drill routines are actually very boring. In addition, some players always listen in one ear and cannot remember what the assistant coach says. After the afternoon training session, the atmosphere team complained softly:

"This is a college training session, we stopped playing like this a long time ago!"

Li You has no problem with this. His usage rate is gradually increasing. Ben Wallace is not qualified to complain about this. "Xiao Ben" works extra hard in training:

"Don't think about coordinating the offense. As long as you can rebound well, you can get more playing time."

Ben Wallace nodded silently after hearing Li You's words. It was his dream to become a super center like a gorilla, but the reality is that he can only be a super blue-collar center.

He was the last one to leave every training session. Li You looked at the little transparent Ben Wallace and could only send encouragement. Being undrafted, he was really not welcome.

November 2nd, which happened to be Sunday, the Knicks faced the Pistons at home that night.

The New York fans who attended the game thought it would be another big win tonight, but the Knicks stumbled.

At 92:98, under the leadership of Grant Hill, the Pistons almost made a comeback, but the Knicks finally defended the victory.

At 34:50 of the half, the Knicks led by 16 points. However, in the second half, Grant Hill's "penalty blast" was amazing. In the fourth quarter, he scored consecutive points and almost tied the score.

Ewing was tormented by forward defense for the whole game. In the end, he made 6 of 15 shots and 6 of 10 free throws. He scored 18 points, 13 rebounds, 1 assist, 5 blocks and 5 turnovers.

The mid-range performance was naturally not in line with the expectations of the New York media!

On the morning of the second day, several print media began to consume Ewing again:

"David Robinson earned $12.4 million this season, Olajuwon earned $11.16 million this season, and Patrick Ewing earned $20.5 million."

"Perhaps the Knicks should not offer a big contract to the 34-year-old Ewing. Such a premium contract may become the biggest obstacle on the road to winning the championship!"

"."

As the chairman of the players' union, Gorilla cannot cut his salary, and the management has long been dissatisfied with the players' high salaries and seized the opportunity to start raising labor issues again.

After the video lesson in the morning, Li You saw the gorilla's dark face and knew that the gorilla had also read the morning newspaper:

“It’s not easy to enjoy the dividends of big ball markets.”
