God of NBA point guards

Chapter 415 We will definitely let this historical record continue

At this time, Zhou Quan was being interviewed by TNT TV station after the match.

In addition to the TNT reporter and cameraman, there was also a group of reporters, three floors inside and three floors outside, surrounding him tightly.

"Congratulations, Iron Fist, you won the match point in the finals [-]-[-]. There has never been a comeback in the history of the league." The TNT reporter said with a smile.

"Thank you, we will definitely let this historical record continue, and there will be no accidents." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

The reporters laughed, and the TNT reporter continued to ask: "In addition, you sent 21 assists in the finals, tying Magic Johnson's historical record. What do you want to say about this now?"

"I know this record. After all, I am a point guard like him, and what I care about most is the record about point guards."

Zhou Quan nodded happily and said, "I also hope to be as great as him and become a symbol of an era. This is what I want to say."

The reporter seemed to be a fan of Zhou Quan, excitedly said: "Iron Fist, ever since you won the WBC World Professional Heavyweight Championship, you have become a symbol of this era."

"It's not enough now, far from enough." Zhou Quan shook his head and smiled.

He has a dream, which he has never told anyone, that is to become the double king.

The outside world said that he straddled the two worlds of boxing and basketball. He has won both the NBA championship and the world boxing title.

In the NBA, generally speaking, only three consecutive championships are called dynasties, and dynasties only show absolute dominance over the entire league. Without a dynasty in hand, what qualifications do they have to be crowned king?
In professional boxing, how can only a WBC world title qualify as the king?
The world's four major boxing organizations plus IBF, a total of five top and first-class world professional boxing organizations, the five world titles have been collected, and the heavyweights of the world's five boxing organizations are unified. He is the real king.

What he wants is the three consecutive championships in the NBA, the professional boxing heavyweights who have completed the unified battle and won the championship, such a double championship.

The locker room of the home team is really like a dead person, the atmosphere is so heavy that it makes people collapse, and it is very depressing.

Phil Jackson didn't say a word, leaning against the wall by the door, looking up at the ceiling, his eyes had no focus at all, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Jordan, sitting in front of the first closet by the door, covered his face with a white towel, leaned back in the chair, panting like a beast.

In the entire locker room, only his panting sound was the clearest. The others seemed to be cautious about panting, for fear of attracting his attention.

Outside the door, owner Jerry Reinsdorf didn't look very good and didn't come in. When Jordan was angry, he didn't even give him face. He was thinking about the problem. What should the Bulls do next?
Kevin Willis is leaving, and the agent has notified the team.

Pippen is arguing about the contract again, asking for a raise, this is the third time, and he's tired of this guy.

Jordan still has a two-year contract. For the championship and to compete with Tekken, he will definitely force the team to strengthen and increase his investment.

What he needs to consider most now is how to deal with Jordan and what the team will do in the future.

Thinking of this, he thought of Jerry Krause, an old buddy who was fired by him.

In fact, he never wanted to fire Klaus, but under Jordan's pressure, he could only choose to fire Klaus.

After one season, he felt that Phil Jackson couldn't help him as the general manager. Now he wants Jerry Krause to come back.

But with the bad relationship between Michael Jordan and Klaus, this idea is difficult to realize.

In the locker room, Jordan made a movement, wiped his face with a towel, and then pulled it down. His action made the atmosphere of the entire locker room relaxed, but still no one dared to speak.

No one knew what Jordan was thinking at this time, maybe everyone in the locker room was waiting for a thunderstorm that would definitely come.

But no, Jordan went into the bathroom afterwards, everyone looked at each other, what happened to Michael today, he didn't scold us?

They even had a sense of elation, Pippen included.

Only Phil Jackson feels wrong. This kind of Jordan makes him feel very strange. Perhaps, what changes will happen?

He doesn't know what the boss is thinking now. Reinsdorf didn't talk to him just now. The attitude of the boss and Jordan made him feel completely out of control about the next thing.

In the locker room of the home team, although they got the match point, under Zhou Quan's control, they didn't celebrate too much. After taking a bath soon, Zhou Quan went to the press conference, and the others were interviewed in the locker room.

"Tekken, do you want to win the championship away or at home?" The first person to ask a question was a reporter from the Seattle Times, who asked very excitedly.

This question made many local reporters upset, but with the Supersonics in hand, they had no choice but to refute.

"Of course it's the home game." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

"Then the next game is an away game. Do we have a chance to celebrate the championship away?" the reporter asked again.

"It is possible that we will not intentionally pursue winning the championship at home." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

The next question was from a reporter from the New York Times, who asked, "Tekken, this year is the Atlanta Olympics. You participated in the World Championships the year before last. You should participate in the Olympics this year, right?"

"of course."

"So what are your goals for the Olympics?" the reporter asked.

"We were No.94 in 4. In this Olympics, we strive to enter the top three and win medals." Zhou Quan said directly.

"Do you think it is possible for the Chinese men's basketball team to achieve this goal?" The reporter asked again.

"This is our goal. We will do our best to achieve this goal. I also think we have the strength to achieve this goal." Zhou Quan said.

The next question was from a reporter from the Los Angeles Times, who asked, "Tekken, the Olympic Games are coming soon. It will start on July 7. Then, will you defend your title before or after the Olympic Games? Who is your opponent?"

Zhou Quan didn't expect it to be a question that had nothing to do with the finals, but he still replied: "Time is too tight, we have already discussed with the WBC and my opponent, the defending match will be held after the Olympics.

As for who the opponent is, sorry, the information about the defending battle, as I have already said, will not be announced before the end of the finals.

Well, now it's the finals period, and I hope the next questions will be some questions related to the finals and the NBA. "

"Tiequan, I heard that you are planning to get married?" the next reporter asked.

Another question that has nothing to do with the NBA. Did you discuss it?He smiled helplessly: "Yes, after the finals, we will get married when we return home."

"Congratulations!"

Domestic reporters took the lead, and immediately a large group of reporters sent congratulations.

On the other side, at the Bulls' press conference, the atmosphere was not so good.

Jordan would rather be fined than attend the press conference, only Pippen attended.

"Phil Jackson, one to three behind, do you think the team has a chance to come back?" A reporter from the Chicago Daily asked.

Phil Jackson's face was gloomy, and he replied very officially: "Anything can happen."

"If you lose this finals, will you resign as head coach?" the reporter asked again.

Phil Jackson felt a kind of sadness hit his heart. He has been in the Bulls for so many years and brought three championships. Is the local media so impatient to let him resign?
He thought about it, and now the relationship with Jordan is already very bad, and the relationship with Pippen is even worse. The boss may not support him any more, and the media doesn't want to see him, so leave as soon as you leave. With his qualifications, there is nowhere to go. .

"My decision will be announced after the finals," he said.

"Oh!"

The reporters below were surprised.

After all, local reporters are only a minority, and most foreign reporters are very surprised. Will the Bulls let go of the champion coach with the triple crown?
Even the local reporters, only a minority hope that Phil Jackson will resign, and more do not want him to leave. After all, he left, who will take over, and the future record are unknown. No one can guarantee that he will be better than Phil Jackson. Jackson did it better.

"Jerry, do you want Phil Jackson to go?"

The next person to ask a question was a reporter from the Chicago Sports News. He didn't want Jackson to leave, so he threw the question to the boss.

Jerry Reinsdorf hesitated, glanced at Phil Jackson next to him, and said: "I hope the team will stabilize. Although the finals are not good now, we have reached the finals after all. For us It is also a kind of success.

Facing a superstar like Tekken and a team like the Sonics, who can guarantee that they will win? "

"Mr. Reithsdorf, you mean, you don't want the team to disintegrate, don't you want the Bulls to rebuild?" asked the next reporter.

"Of course." Reinsdorf said.

"Scottie, what about you, do you intend to leave the Bulls?" the next reporter asked.

"I don't know." Pippen said indifferently.

He can't say clearly that if the Bulls don't give him a raise, he's ready to leave.

He doesn't have Jordan's paranoia that regards championships as his life, nor does he have the paranoia that regards honor as his life. For a poor boy like him who came from a slum, money is the most important thing, and love can't generate electricity. of.

After the press conference, Jerry Reinsdorf made a call to Jerry Krause.

The two are also colleagues and friends for many years. In fact, he also trusts Klaus very much. After the pleasantries, he asked directly: "Jerry, how do you think the Bulls should develop in the future?"

Jerry Krause has been resting for a year, and he has been really quiet recently, saying: "Jerry, I have been paying attention to the Bulls. This team is still sustainable. Jordan and Pippen are still there. If he can play, he can at least maintain his championship-level strength for one to two seasons."

"You think there's no need to rebuild?"

Reinsdorf also doesn't want to enter the reconstruction period now, and he is a little joyful.

Jerry Krause said: "Jerry, I want to know, what is your next goal? Is it to continue to pursue the championship, or to maintain the current market?"

Reinsdorf fell silent, and said after five seconds: "Maintaining the ball market must be one of the goals. If this lineup does not need to increase investment, the championship is also the goal."

Jerry Krause said: "If you continue to chase the championship, the Bulls have hope to keep Jordan, but the lineup needs to be strengthened and continue to invest.

Moreover, Jerry, although Jordan still has very strong strength, he can beat anyone in the league except Iron Fist, but the current active No.1 is indeed Iron Fist.

If they want to win back the championship from Iron Fist, the Bulls must vigorously strengthen the inside offense and defense, as well as rebounding. If these three abilities cannot be supplemented, it will be very difficult.

I have a suggestion here, Rodman's contract has ended, go get him, so that we can strengthen the rebound and inside defense, and can greatly weaken the Sonics. "

"Not bad."

Reinsdorf repeatedly praised Rodman, but suddenly thought of Rodman's age, and said worriedly: "But Jerry, he is 35 years old, and he will be 36 next season. How long can he maintain his state? From what I heard, he But I want a long-term contract."

"After Kevin Willis was seriously injured, you are all willing to bet, why not bet on Rodman?" Jerry Krause said.

Reinsdorf was a little embarrassed, Klaus was still dissatisfied with him, and deliberately pissed him off.

Jerry Krause said: "Rodman has been following Iron Fist since the Pistons. Iron Fist is used to his existence. With Rodman present, he doesn't have to worry about inside defense and rebounding. Get him away from Iron Fist. For Iron Fist and Supersonic, it will definitely cause a lot of damage.

Believe me, Jerry, Rodman's current state is not bad, you know that in the first four finals, he averaged 14.6 rebounds per game, why the Bulls lost to the Sonics, his rebounding is an important factor. "

Jerry Reinsdorf nodded. He felt that if the Sonics didn't have a big bug, they might not be able to beat their own bulls.

"OK, then I'll let...er, Jerry?"

He originally planned to tell Phil Jackson to contact Rodman's agent, but he realized that this matter has not been resolved yet.

"Jerry, what are you trying to say?" Klaus asked.

Reinsdorf hesitated for a moment before saying: "Now Michael and Phil Jackson have conflicts. Because of the loss, Michael no longer trusts Jackson so much. If he resigns, Jerry, come back?"

"Will Jordan want to see me come back? I don't want to see him call me a fat pig in front of so many people anymore." Klaus' voice became a little cold.

Reinsdorf shook his head helplessly. Jordan's temper is indeed very bad. What if he replaced it with an iron fist?

"how is this possible?"

He shook his head, Michael Jordan is already a symbol of Chicago, God in the hearts of Bulls fans, he believes that even an iron fist cannot replace Michael's position in the hearts of Chicagoans.

"Well, Jerry, let me find a chance to test Michael's attitude?" he said.

"To be honest, Jerry, I have already received invitations from several teams, including the Mavericks, Warriors, and Knicks. I don't necessarily want to go back to the Bulls." Krause said reservedly.

"Jerry, give me a chance, you know, I didn't want to leave last year. And I know you don't want to leave the Bulls, leave Chicago, stay and help me." Reinsdorf hurriedly said.

"Well, old man, I hope Jordan can hold me."

Klaus has stayed in Chicago for so many years, and his family is here, and he doesn't really want to leave, so his attitude softened.

"Okay, let's talk about it. I hope you will come back and continue to serve as the general manager. Phil Jackson will only be his head coach." Reinsdorf said happily.
