0266: [Just rich]
Bruce is indeed the only man in the world today who can make the God of Basketball lose his temper like this.
But then again, this kind of thing... even if the Bobcats management heard about it, they wouldn't dare let Jordan know about it.
Although Rich Joe has admitted that his operation in the draft may not be so correct, if he had reported to Jordan any clues about the Lakers' plan to trade Li Zhen, Jordan would definitely use the team's resources to please the Lakers. What about Okafor?
There was no one like Wallace or Morrison whom he dared not give away.
As for the draft pick, he definitely dares to do something even more "throwing his head and blood" than Isaiah Thomas.
I don’t know what kind of **** soup Li Zhen poured into Jordan to make him so fascinated.
But in any case, no matter what the grudges are based on, it is impossible for Isaiah Thomas to trade Bruce Lee to Charlotte. Therefore, the basketball god can only be very troubled.

New York City is located on the Atlantic coast in the southeastern part of New York State. It is the largest city and largest port in the United States. The New York metropolitan area is the largest urban area in the world and is also the world's financial center. The entertainment industry is also very prosperous, and the media is also very prosperous.
The old empire. In sports, there are also famous Yankees, Jets and Giants.
However, in terms of basketball, the Knicks have had no bright spots since entering the new century, and have even become the laughing stock of the world.
Once upon a time, Madison Garden was known as the Mecca of basketball, and all drafted players’ basketball dreams started here. But now, it has become a touring stage for visiting team superstars, and frustrated fans have long been accustomed to cheering for Kobe Bryant.
, Wade, Garnett, James and others applauded.
The news surrounding the New York Knicks has nothing to do with winning. It is always about disputes in the locker room, disagreements between generals, or discussions about high salary, low performance, and junk contracts.
No fans have had high hopes for this group of players for a long time.
Due to many suffocating operations of Isaiah Thomas, the Knicks now have no salary space to make big-name signings. The only thing the Knicks can hope for is to select a cornerstone player from the draft.
But now, the Smiling Assassin has once again pierced the imagination of New York fans. He actually used his unprotected first-round pick in the summer of 2007 to trade for Bruce Lee.
Although everyone knows that Bruce Lee has performed well this season, he is still a point guard born and raised in New York.
However, debates about his 'famousness and strength' have been rampant in the media.
Although the New York media really want to give the upcoming newcomer some applause and encouragement, hoping that he can lead the team to revival. However, the New York Times still can't help but worry about the comment: We still have to be cautious in the face of this lottery ticket that has been scratched in half.
Conservative. After all, what we paid is a lottery ticket that may select the cornerstone of the team for the next ten years.
When the New York Times took a neutral stance, the media took a wait-and-see approach.
This is completely opposite to the scene when Stephon Marbury returned home from the wandering world. When Marbury returned to New York, there was absolutely noisy gongs, drums and firecrackers. The title of "Son of New York" was so loud that the New York Times even personally praised it.
The endorsement of being the best point guard in the world. However, now, Marbury has become a cancer that everyone wants to get rid of quickly. His 100 million yuan contract with three seasons left is also called garbage among garbage contracts.
The contract cannot be traded, and no team is willing to take over. Moreover, Marbury does not agree to a buyout. He just wants every cent of the contract amount to flow into his bank account.
And this is why the Knicks pay such a high luxury tax.
…
Li Zhen arrived at JFK Airport alone, but to the surprise of the New York media, Isaiah Thomas, Donnie Walsh and owner James Dolan all appeared at the airport waiting.
This brings great encouragement to the fans: this is a great start.
But what happened that night was that when the New York Knicks faced the New Jersey Nets at home, they were brutally beaten by 39 points. Jason Kidd led the troika to run wild in Madison Garden, and they asked for everything.
The person who was criticized wildly in this game was Stephon Marbury.
Marbury forced his way into the game for 41 minutes: When Isaiah Thomas ran to pick up Bruce, there was nothing the assistant coach could do to stop him.
He seemed to sense the sense of crisis with the arrival of new players. After all, Eddy Curry had already sang the song "Long Live the Little Fox" in the locker room... Little Shark has never forgotten Li Zhen's life-saving grace for him on the court.
He is the player in New York who most hopes Bruce will come to Madison Garden.
19 points on 7-of-29 shooting, 4 assists, 4 rebounds, 1 steal and 6 turnovers.
This was Marbury's answer in this game.
He completely lived up to his nickname of cancer. The fans at the scene were disheartened by him. Even after the game, some people were reluctant to leave for a long time and shouted: we-need-bruce!!
We need Bruce Lee!
There is no doubt that Marbury used his actual actions to make the best assist in his life. He successfully made the fans have unlimited hope for Li Zhen.
He originally wanted to prove his still-lasting strength through this game, but found that he had completely broken with the other players on the team, and trust no longer existed. Although he was generous, he often bought cars for rookie players or gave hundreds of millions to them.
A pair of jeans.
But it is undeniable that when he controls the basketball, the living space of other players is greatly reduced.
"You need Bruce Lee."
After the game, Jason Kidd spoke frankly in an interview with the New York media.
This sentence was placed on the headlines of the New York Times sports section the next day.
What’s interesting is that the headlines on the entertainment version also have the same purpose.
After the media photographed Elizabeth Olsen, the youngest sister of the Olsen family and the tallest, appearing at the airport to pick up the plane, Anne Hathaway also emphasized in an interview as a Knicks fan: "We need Bruce Lee."
There is also the excited Paris Hilton. This famous socialite in New York social circle can't wait to tell the world: I need Bruce Lee.
She had handed a note to Li Zhen on the court a long time ago, and was even exposed to the news of clubbing after the game. But there has been no follow-up since then. This is not... hoping for the stars and hoping for the moon, Li Zhen actually joined the Knicks.
.
What a huge impact this had on Hilary Duff, who was filming in Los Angeles.
All right.
Even though Bruce has not officially put on a Knicks jersey, multiple scandals about him are already being laid out in full swing, and the New York media has finally found their topic-generating machine.
"He is a born star, have you seen it? The number of people betting on what jersey number he will wear next has exceeded 180,000."
Isaiah Thomas triumphantly told James Dolan and Donnie Walsh: "Believe me, his jerseys are going to sell like crazy. We're going to make a huge profit this year."
Forehead….
James Dolan raised his eyebrows helplessly. What he was thinking was: In which year did we not make a profit? Even if our record is terrible and we pay high luxury taxes every year, we are still the most profitable team in the league. We can bear it.
!
"Let's talk about the next court session. Marbury will be present as a witness, can you handle him?" James Dolan started talking about business again.
Recently, the court will conduct a new round of hearings on Isaiah Thomas' molestation of a black aunt, and Marbury has been called as a witness.
"Is he going to betray me again?" Thomas didn't care.
At this time, he received a text message from Li Zhen, and Li Zhen finally confirmed his jersey number.
Although New York star Fraser agreed to give up his No. 10 jersey, due to regulations, Li Zhen cannot wear this jersey at least this season.
Therefore, Li Zhen settled for the next best thing and informed Thomas of his new choice: "I choose No. 8."
He also gave a detailed explanation to narrow the distance between new colleagues: "The reason why I chose No. 10 is because in Chinese it means perfection, perfect. Since No. 10 has retired and there are inevitable shortcomings in life, then I choose
Number 8, it means getting rich!”
Yes, if you can't be perfect, then get promoted and make a fortune.
This is the simplest wish of the working people of China.
Thomas was moved and he responded to the text message: "Are you in Elizabeth's arms now? You have to train tomorrow, save your energy."
Forehead….
At this moment, Li Zhen finally realized: Times have changed.
In Los Angeles, a Zen master would never say such naughty jokes. He would only tell you in a serious manner that you need to have peace of mind and practice Zen and enlightenment. The state is as if you have just graduated from Shaolin Temple after practicing for three years. And Isaiah Thomas is like this
Such a careless coaching style... Could it be that Marbury got into a fight because he was trying to steal a woman from him?
He turned his head sideways, looked at Elizabeth, and said seriously: "My coach told me to take it easy."
no!!
Elizabeth is very determined, she represents the glory of the Olsen family, face the wind!
She pounced on him.
continue!
…
Classmate Li Zhen finally realized that his physical fitness was abnormal. He found that he was not affected at all. He was still walking fast and full of energy. Faintly, he felt that he was more powerful. Although his numerical values did not loosen, his vitality and blood were so loud.
What a flourishing one!
Sure enough, the power of love is great.
When he appeared at the Knicks training facility, New York reporters could no longer contain their excitement. They rushed to their topical traffic ATM like wild horses.
Although Bruce is a person who has seen big scenes in the largest city on the west coast, he is still a bit weak when facing the battles on the east coast.
Fortunately, the Knicks' security guards were well-informed, and they quickly rushed forward and pulled the reporters away.
They are very experienced in handling this kind of thing, because whenever something happens to the team, there will always be crazy reporters running over to besiege them. They have all taken several crisis management courses.
Well, the Knicks are a big cancer family, and the security department is very hard to control.
Li Zhen was escorted into the arena by security guards, and then underwent a routine physical examination. After confirming that he had no injuries, preparations for the on-site press conference began non-stop.
Make the noodles very grand.
On the one hand, it is to express the importance to Li Zhen.
On the other hand, there is money.
Chapter completed!
