NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

After the All-Star Game, Combs invited the Eastern Conference All-Stars and the twelve Western Conference All-Stars led by D'Antoni to have a dinner.

Originally, Kumbu wanted to invite his coached disciples to have a meal and get together, but D'Antoni and Duncan have a good relationship with him, so it's hard to say no.

They invited both of them. It wouldn't make sense not to invite Nowitzki and Kobe, so I might as well just invite them all.

Nuo Tianwang and Kobe still showed face to Kong Bu, and came to the appointment happily.

Although Kobe lost tonight and failed to win the MVP, he was in a great mood, because Ao Pang played for more than ten minutes tonight, and his statistics were 4 points and 3 rebounds, which was simply horrible.

In fact, the conflict between him and Ao Pang cannot be blamed on one of them alone.

Ao Pang is not a thing, he paid for the team veteran to beat Kobe, this is a real thing.

Kobe is also guilty. He is too ignorant of the world. Even if he is half as sensible as Hill and can coax O'Fatty, the Lakers dynasty can at least last for several years. It is not difficult to create a dual dynasty like Jordan.

It's a pity that both of them are too childish and immature.

During the dinner, everyone ate very happily, Kong Bu's heart was bleeding, he forgot what kind of people he had invited, a group of super big eaters!

There was no competition for the next two days, and there were many friends at the scene, so they simply opened their mouths to drink.

Kong Bu felt that he didn't have tens of thousands of dollars tonight, so he definitely couldn't pay the bill.

"Damn it, I really envy you when I see you get married and have children."

"When will I meet my soul mate?"

The bearded Davis saw that most of the players around him were married and had children, but he was still alone. After drinking too much, he began to complain.

"Dude, you're just not lucky yet, and look at Chris Bosh, isn't he single now? No one is in a hurry."

Yao Ming sat beside the bearded man, smiling and comforting him.

The bearded man didn't understand the word luck, so Yao Ming explained it again.

Kong Bu smiled and said nothing, mainly because he is also a single dog and really has no say in this kind of matter.

However, Bosh's love luck is actually good. He has always been able to meet top beauties, which is not the same fate as the bearded Davis.

Comb remembered that Bosh's future wife was named Adrianna, a very well-known socialite in the old American sports circle. Before marrying Bosh, she dated many NBA players, including Delonte West. .

The relationship between Delonte West and James' mother is well known. Bosh's wife's ex-boyfriend is Delonte West, and Bosh and James are teammates. This relationship is a bit messy.

It can only be said that this guy Delonte West has something, the real all-you-can-eat, basketball has delayed him as a lover.

This is also the reason why Kongbu doesn't want to find women in this circle, because you don't know when there will be more adoptive fathers or adopted sons, or dozens of more brothers-in-law.

"Lucky? I don't think I will be lucky in this life." Davis with a beard said with emotion.

Kong Bu smiled and said, "No good luck? Why don't you try Chrysanthemum luck, maybe you can find your soul mate."

Yao Ming, Daba, Dazhi and A Lian all laughed at the same time. The bearded man didn't understand what chrysanthemum luck was, so how could the four of them not understand.

After dinner was over, everyone bid farewell.

Even Kobe drank a lot, and when he parted, he hugged Comb, as if he had endless words.

The All-Star Weekend is over, with one-third of the regular season schedule left, and each team is beginning to prepare for the playoffs.

Bobcats next first game is against the New Jersey Nets.

Kongbu has actually been looking forward to this game for a long time. He wants to see what the Nets are like and what areas can be adjusted if he takes over in the future.

On February 2, Combe led the Bobcats to New Jersey.

In the regional discrimination of old America, New Jersey belongs to the lowest level. Not only the nearby metropolis New York discriminates against New Jersey, but also various jokes that discriminate against New Jersey often appear in various American dramas.

This is a bit like the people in the capital of the Celestial Dynasty making fun of Tongzhou, and the people of Shanghai making fun of Chongming.

New York is the most prosperous super metropolis in the world. From the bottom of my heart, I look down on New Jersey, a poor neighbor. However, New Jersey people also have their own arrogance. They think that New Yorkers are nouveau riche. If you really want to say that the aristocratic background depends on their New Jersey .

After arriving in New Jersey, Comb had a meal with current Nets coach Lawrence Frank.

Combe had little contact with Frank before, but Frank, a grassroots coach, still holds a lot of weight in Combe's mind.

NBA coaches have player school and academic school, and there are also some fusions of the two. Comb belongs to the fusion of the two. He was born at Wake Forest University, but he is also a Pistons school.

And Lawrence Frank is a very rare person who doesn't have any connection with the two factions. He was born as a wage earner in the canteen of the five-star training camp. Lawrence Frank has learned a lot about his basketball philosophy.

The five-star training camp has trained more than 300 college coaches and NBA coaches, and Frank is undoubtedly the most unusual one. He has not listened to any class, but has achieved achievements that many people cannot match.

"Kong, you have a good relationship with Stern, can you tell me what he thinks?"

"Now our management rights are in the hands of the league. No one knows what Stern will do next. Will there be a major management change? Will he sell the core players in the team?"

"We don't know any news at all, and it makes people panic."

Lawrence Frank said with a sad face.

The current situation in the Nets is indeed a bit uneasy. Under the control of the tyrant Stern, they dare not even breathe. No one knows whether their random behavior will offend Stern and end up miserably.

Kong Bu looked embarrassed, this question was asked on his head, it was really the right person to ask.

When Kongbu takes charge of the Nets, he will definitely take charge of the coaching position himself, and Frank will definitely be unemployed by then.

But Comb also thought about how to arrange for Frank, that is, let him coach the Bobcats.

Frank's ability is very good. Looking at the entire NBA, it is also a top existence. Let him coach the Bobcats, and it will definitely not make the Bobcats collapse.

"No one can say what will happen in the future. Maybe I will become the owner of the Nets next?"

"But you don't need to worry too much. With your coaching ability, you don't have to worry about finding a job in this league. If you really can't find a job as a head coach, I'll help you find it."

Combe comforted Frank with a smile.

"Thank you in advance, Kong."

Frank was actually very curious. He didn't understand why Combe wanted to help him.

In his impression, Kumbu is not a good talker, and many top coaches have collapsed for him.

Is it possible that I have some personality charm that attracted Kong Bu?
Thinking about it, it's unlikely. I look very similar to little Van Gundy, and they are both like vampires. How can I have any personality charm.

The two chatted a lot, and Comb mainly wanted to learn about the situation in the Nets' locker room through Frank.

The current core lineup of the Nets is Kenyon Martin, Richard Jefferson, Kidd, Eric Williams, Krstic and Ron Moser.

Originally, Carter was also a member of the Nets at this point in time, but because of Kongbu's crossing, Carter was still with the Raptors.

The main reason why Carter left the Raptors was actually Bosh. He was angry that the team paid more attention to Bosh, so he decided to leave the team.

The current lineup of the Nets cannot be considered bad, but there is still a clear gap between them and the strong teams.

Kenyon Martin is the only one who can play inside. The key point is that Martin's style of play is similar to that of Josh Smith. He is not a serious insider.

The main players on the perimeter are Jefferson and Kidd.

Jefferson's offense is okay, but his defense is too stretched. Kidd's defense is very strong and his organizational ability is also very good, but his offensive ability is too stretched.

After Kombu finished chatting with Stern before, he also thought about how to adjust the Nets' lineup if he took over the Nets.

Kidd is definitely going to stay.

He is a super-enhanced version of Eric Snow, and Kidd is still in his prime. Point guards of this level in the league are hard to find.

Among the younger generation of point guards, the real value can be higher than Kidd, that is, Chris Paul, who will enter the league in the next draft.

If Paul is not available, Kidd can only be used.

And saying that Kidd is very offensive does not mean that he really has no offensive ability at all. In fact, his three-point ability is still a bit high-grade, and he can average about 35% of his shots per game. points or so.

Except for Kidd, the other players, Comb, are not very interested. After he takes over, it is very likely that they will all be packaged and sold in exchange for draft picks to choose powerful newcomers to rebuild the Nets.

According to Lawrence Frank, the atmosphere in the Nets' locker room is quite harmonious, mainly because Kidd, the boss of the team, doesn't put on airs very much in the locker room, and rarely cares about the affairs of other players, so there are almost no An irreconcilable contradiction.

Combe was relieved. What he was really worried about was that Kidd would run amok in the locker room.

Kidd has always been an unstable factor in the locker room, which doesn't match his honest and honest appearance.

In the Dallas 90J era in the 3s, Kidd, Mashburn, and Jimmy Jackson formed an extremely powerful 3J combination. Together, the three could average 61.5 points per game.

At that time, Jordan retired, and everyone thought that Dallas could take the opportunity to win the two championships. After all, the 3J combination is too strong, not only strong offensively, but also very good defensively.

It's definitely not the same concept as the 3-S combination that the Wizards created two years ago.

What the hell are the Wizards? Arenas, Larry Hughes and Stackhouse, these three have good offensive abilities, but except for Larry Hughes, the other two defensive abilities are just like a joke.

When the 3J combination fights the 3S combination, 3J can crush the 3S back and forth almost a hundred times.

Unfortunately, the 3J group got into a fight in a bar because of a woman, which directly led to the group falling apart.

In addition to the internal strife of 3J robbing women, Kidd will become a coach in the future, and there have been several incidents of strife in the locker room, almost all conflicts broke out between him and the players.

Kumbu is not worried about Kidd's strength, but his character.

If a team has a bad atmosphere in the locker room, they will definitely not be able to compete with their opponents at the same level, especially since Kumbu will form a new team at that time, and winning the championship is tantamount to dreaming.

Now listening to Frank talk about the situation in the Nets locker room, Combe felt much more at ease.

After the evening game started, Kumbu sat quietly on the sidelines watching the game.

He is observing what kind of lineup Kidd is suitable for.

Since it is determined to keep Kidd, it must be equipped with a decent outside partner for Kidd.

Kidd is not suitable for Bobcats' current perimeter system. Iguodala's offensive desire is not strong, and Kidd is more suitable for a guy with explosive offensive desire like Kobe Bryant.

To be honest, Kobe and Kidd are actually a perfect backcourt partner. If these two team up, they may really achieve quite amazing achievements.

Lao Yu is really useless, his defense is not worthy of Kidd's shoes, and his offense may not be better than Kidd.

As for Nash, who joined the Lakers in his later years, after all, he was old and had various injuries, and his style of play was extremely unsuitable for Kobe.

Nash is suitable for a 3D backcourt partner like Lagabel. He doesn't get involved in offense and can focus on helping Nash in defense.

Kongbu decided to start paying attention in the past two years and try his best to find a suitable backcourt partner for Kidd. In this way, the New Army would be half done.

Kumbu didn't care much about the game situation on the court, because with the strength of the Nets, it would be tantamount to wishful thinking to defeat the Bobcats.

Among other things, the Nets have nothing to do with regard to O'Pang.

The key is that Lawrence Frank had a long chat with Combe last night.

In tonight's game, Frank had no reason to use the slashing shark tactics against Kumbu.

In this way, at the end of the first half, the Bobcats had already led by [-] points.

In the second half, Kumbu replaced the main lineup, but Hill was left on the court, because Hill had scored 17 points, 7 rebounds and 11 assists in the first half.

Comb wanted Hill to put together a triple-double on the court.

Although triple pairs are becoming less and less valuable now, why not get them if you can get them.

Kumbu didn't expect that his idea would directly lead to a big trouble.

Halfway through the third quarter, Martin Jr. missed a shot, and Hill rushed inside, ready to accept the rebound.

As long as this rebound is paid for, he will have a triple-double.

After the jump, a black shadow appeared from the side, and Kenyon Martin's strong body also rushed towards the backboard.

The two collided in the air, how could Hill's body be able to hit Kenyon Martin.

He fell heavily to the ground, landed on his back, and made a loud noise.

Kong Bu's scalp was numb, and he had a premonition that things were going to get worse. The impact was too scary, and Hill must be injured! (end of this chapter)
