NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Before the start of Game [-] of the Eastern Conference semifinals, Pippen finally couldn't bear the pressure and took the initiative to find Comb.

After playing two consecutive games for such a long time, the performance on the court was hard to describe, and even some fans shouted to drive him off the court. Pippen couldn't hold back his face.

"Kong, the previous conflict with Shaq, I admit that I was too impulsive."

"You've already punished me for two games, save some face for an old guy like me."

Pippen has been able to partner with Jordan's temperament for so many years. He knows that a man can bend and stretch. What good will it do to contradict Comb?Absolutely not.

The contract he signed with the Bulls before was two years and $400 million. This is the first year of the contract, and he will have to work for Kumbu for a year next year.

"Huh? Scotty, what do you mean?"

"You mean I'm punishing you by keeping you playing for so long?"

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? Playing house with you here? In order to punish you, I'm willing to let the Knicks advance?"

Kong Bu pretended to be angry.

Pippen waved his hand quickly, "Kong, you misunderstood me."

"My current physical condition really can't last that long. Playing for too long will not do any harm to the team at all."

"While we still have a chance to advance, don't let me start the next game."

Pippen had a psychological shadow in these two games. His body was so tired that he was about to foam at the mouth, and he was also devastated mentally.

Comb still shook his head, "No, Scottie, you still have to start the next game, and the playing time cannot be less than 45 minutes."

"Let me tell you, whether we can get rid of the Knicks and advance, you are the only X factor."

Pippen was about to cry. He didn't believe Combu's nonsense at all. He knew better than anyone else what his situation was.

Have to appear for at least 45 minutes?At that time, the court will be so tired that it will foam at the mouth, and it will be a hairy factor.

"Kong, don't play tricks on me."

"Fucking you? Scotty, I, Comb, led two different teams to create two dynasties and achieved six consecutive championships. Why should I fool you?"

"In the next game, I said you can do it, even if you can't, you have to do it."

Comb said that and directly drove Pippen out of the office.

Pippen was in a sad mood. He felt that he was really out of luck this time. The fans in the last game would have chased him off. The next game would be a tiebreaker. The Knicks have been swept away, and their reputation may be as bad as an alien planet.

In fact, since he left the Bulls, whether he joined the Rockets or the Trail Blazers, he has been unpopular, and all the fans of the home team have great opinions on him.

……

东部这边尼克斯已经3:0领先了山猫，另一组对手费城76人与多伦多猛龙比尼克斯山猫少打一场，他们目前是2:1的大比分。

The Timberwolves played against the Spurs in the west, and it is currently a 2:2 situation.

Korver and Uncle Bao, who Kumbu gave to the Spurs, performed quite amazingly in this round of the series.

In these four games, Korver averaged 42% of his three-pointers per game and averaged 4.5 three-pointers per game. He has become the main outside attack point of the Spurs.

And Uncle Bao's defense against the Timberwolves has something to say.

As we all know, Uncle Bao has the reputation of being a crippled foot. This title was obtained when he played against the Timberwolves. When he was facing the Timberwolves star outside marksman Szczerbiak, he kicked him in the head. It almost disfigured Szczerbiak's handsome face.

When facing Uncle Bao again, Szczerbiak was frightened, which affected his state, and his scoring and field goal percentage per game were far inferior to Korver's.

Another set of matchups is the Lakers and the Suns.

Last season, the Suns were fouled by the Lakers because of Nash, which caused the UAE to be sent off. The Suns also lost that round of the series.

After the game, in front of reporters, UAE vowed to sweep the Lakers this season.

It's a pity that there must be no way to sweep this season, because the Suns played a big score of 2:1, and the chances of eliminating the Lakers are not small, but there is no way to sweep.

Since the start of the playoffs, the UAE has been playing chicken blood. The current average of 28 points, 13 rebounds, 8 assists, 2.5 steals and 2.5 blocks per game is astonishing.

The score is similar to that of the regular season, but the shooting rate of Ah Lian in the playoffs has increased a bit. Outside experts have commented that Ah Lian is a player born for big scenes. He is born with a big heart. The more critical the moment, the better the performance .

Seeing the evaluations of these experts, Kong Bu was filled with emotion. He didn’t know whether it was Antetokounmpo’s template that caused the change in Ah Lian’s personality, or whether he intervened in the growth of Ah Lian prematurely, making his character not as weak as normal. At this moment, the UAE has a resolute personality, a strong desire to win, and is not afraid of any physical confrontation. This season, due to the fierce confrontation, it has clashed with at least three teams.

Of course, the league turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye. They didn't give the UAE any punishment at all, and almost gave the UAE the same treatment as Malone in his peak period.

It can be said that as long as the UAE is not the kind that elbows people into a coma on the spot, it is absolutely impossible for the league to ban him from the game.

What is a cash cow, the UAE is now the real cash cow, not only the cash cow of the Suns and Nike, but also the cash cow of the entire league.

Even though he entered the league later than Big Zhi, Daba and Yao Ming, his popularity is even higher than that of Yao Ming because of his gorgeous outside style of play.

How high is it?Some experts compared the UAE with King Webber before, saying that the UAE and Webber are super power forwards of the same level.

这么对比自然也并非是毫无道理，韦伯巅峰期打出过场均27分11篮板5助攻1.5抢断2盖帽的数据，绝对的攻防俱佳还附带一手组织能力。

But the Suns fans did not agree to such a comparison at all, feeling that this expert greatly underestimated the strength of the UAE.

The thoughts of the fans are very simple. Only the second-year Arab League has already crushed Chris Webber in all aspects in terms of statistics and team record. Why should Weber touch his own Arab League?

In the end, he really forced the expert to apologize, and changed his name to say that the United Arab Emirates is an enhanced version of Weber.

In this way, the fans are satisfied, and fortunately Weber's temperament is not so fond of fighting, otherwise the UAE will have an extra enemy for no reason.

On the day of the Bobcats' fourth game against the Knicks, the annual lottery officially began.

Kong Bu had already made tea in the office, and stood in front of the TV, waiting for the live broadcast of the draw.

At such an important moment, Jordan is not there. It's not that he doesn't care about the Magic's draft picks, but that he is in the Knicks at the moment to participate in this lottery.

The deal between the Magic and the Bobcats happened during the offseason of last season, so the Magic's draft pick originally belonged to the Bobcats, and the Bobcats should also be the representative of the draw this time.

After waiting for a while, the lottery started, and Combe saw Jordan in a bright red suit in front of the TV.

Jordan's complexion was very dark, and he was no longer young. He was wearing an extremely bright red suit, and looked indescribably weird, as if he had just returned from the set of a horror film.

Before leaving for New York yesterday, Jordan came to Combe and asked him if he could guarantee the No. [-] lottery.

Kumbu is not a god, how could such a thing be possible.

In order to make Jordan less nervous, he said that red clothes are festive and can bring good luck.

Jordan ordered a set of bright red jersey overnight, and then carried crosses, amulets, Jade Guanyin, sachets, etc. with him, stuffing his suit pockets to the brim.

These things were given to him by Combe before. Jordan likes to give Combu gifts, such as some expensive cigars and red wine.

Kong Bu couldn’t say nothing at all, so he called Dazhi’s old father and asked him to entrust someone to wholesale a bunch of auspicious small objects from Yiwu, put a whole sack in the office, and every time Jordan When presents were delivered, Kong Bu casually took out small items from the sack in return.

Jordan probably never dreamed that he would send Kong Bu wine and cigars worth thousands of dollars, and the things Kong Bu sent him would be wholesaled from Yiwu for ten yuan a catty.

The Magic's record ranks first in the league, which means that the Bobcats are the first draw.

Just 5 minutes later, Comb could even hear Jordan's cheers from the TV. They were really lucky to get the No. [-] lottery for the Bobcats.

"Congratulations, Michael."

"I feel that it won't be a problem for you to win the championship next season. Kumbu's ability to train rookies is enough to make this No. [-] pick a superstar right after entering the league."

"What luck, Michael, what's in your pocket?"

"Kumbu bought your suit for you, right? I was a teaching assistant under him, and I heard him say that red clothes can bring good luck. Damn it, I would have bought a red suit if I knew it."

"Is there still such a saying? No wonder Combe has been so lucky."

"Can the lottery be suspended? I want to go out and buy a red suit and come back to draw the lottery."

The representatives of the teams at the scene congratulated Jordan one after another, their eyes full of envy and hatred.

Jordan didn't expect that the red suit he was wearing today would lead the trend again. In every lottery meeting in the future, he would be ashamed to show up at the scene without wearing a red suit, and would look extremely unprofessional.

With an ecstatic expression on his face, Jordan took out the Yiwu Lunjin wholesale small commodities that Kongbu gave him from his pocket, and distributed them to the surrounding team representatives one by one.

"This is the lucky charm that Kong Bu gave me, so that you can also share my good luck."

"Kumbu said that he obtained these things from various masters, and I hope it will bring you good luck!"

After Jordan won the No. [-] lottery, he felt that these lucky charms were useless, so he took them out and distributed them to each team to be good people.

"Hey, Michael, are you sure I'm a lucky charm? How do I think he's a lamb from a cartoon? What does that mean?"

The general manager of the Los Angeles Clippers, Old Dunleavy, who also had a very poor record, held a plastic Pleasant keychain and looked at it carefully.

"In 2004, according to the Chinese zodiac, it was the year of the sheep, do you understand?"

"This kind of thing is too esoteric, and it's normal for you to not understand it."

How did Jordan actually understand this? He was also puzzled when he got this thing, but the answer given by Kumbu convinced him.

"Don't understand? Who said I don't understand."

"Fengshui, kung fu, and zodiac signs, I don't understand."

Old Dunleavy has always liked to pretend to be smart, even if he is really not very smart.

He also wanted to say something to prove that he was knowledgeable, and Stern on the stage had read out their Clippers lottery.

Second pick!
Old Deng Levy was overjoyed, and couldn't help but kissed him hard with the Pleasant Goat keychain.

"It's amazing, we got the second lottery!"

The Clippers' record ranks second to last in the league, and their chances of getting the second pick are not small.

However, a poor record does not mean that you will be able to draw a high-ranking draft pick, and you still need a certain amount of luck.

After the No. [-] pick was taken away by the Magic, the Clippers got the best pick they could get.

Numerous experts have said that this year will be a big year for the inside draft, and the most eye-catching ones are of course the high school student Howard and the mature and ready-to-combat center Okafor in the fourth year of the University of Connecticut.

This second pick can at least ensure that the Clippers select one of them, and the old Dunleavy is naturally very happy.

The representatives of each team looked at each other in blank dismay, is it really so evil?Are the lucky charms that Jordan gave them really so useful?
Soon the Houston Rockets with the third-worst record came. In the middle of the season, they learned through the "traitor" Ewing that this year is a big year for the insiders, so they put in all their strength to make it bad.

The third-worst record, there is also a chance to get the No. [-] pick or No. [-]. Originally, Van Gundy was full of expectations, but the Bobcats and Clippers in front of him directly shattered his hopes.

He couldn't help wondering if it was because he was far away from Jordan that he couldn't get Jordan's lucky charm.

A moment later, Stern announced the Rockets' pick, the seventh pick!

Everyone at the scene cast sympathetic glances at little Van Gundy. This luck is really too bad. After a poor season, he only got the seventh overall pick, which is really unlucky for grandma's house.

Little Van Gundy was about to cry, and he was even more convinced that it was his failure to get Jordan's lucky charm that caused such unlucky luck.

Seeing that the Rockets were so unlucky, representatives of several teams far away from Jordan hurried to Jordan, wanting to share a lucky charm.

There are some things that can't be done without faith. Seeing the tragedy of the Rockets, they don't want it to happen to them.

Coincidentally, the teams that got the lucky charms actually got draft picks that were ranked higher than their record, while the teams that didn't get the lucky charms were not very satisfied with the draft picks.

For such an evil thing, the representatives of each team made up their minds that the next time they see Kumbu, they have to ask for a lucky charm from him. This thing is really evil.

After Kumbu learned that Jordan had won the No. [-] lottery, he had already started to figure out how to use the No. [-] lottery to seek greater benefits.

But now that the Bobcats have been pushed to a desperate situation by the Knicks, Comb doesn't think about it anymore. He just wants to beat the Knicks and get tickets to the Eastern Conference Finals.
