the great gatsby

Chapter 161 Ruthless may not be a real hero (sixth update!)

The moment Gatsby turned around, there were about 15000 people in the arena praying: Don't go in, don't go in!

The other people didn't make a sound. They seemed to have been immobilized. Their voices were suppressed in their chests and they couldn't make a sound. They only felt their bodies go cold.

Years later, a young fan recalled:
"...the demon shot that deadly three-pointer in the middle of Morris and Parker, and as soon as it hit the ground, he turned and walked to the visiting team's bench, without looking at the basketball that was still spinning rapidly in the air .

I couldn't say anything at the time, although there were about 15000 people in the arena at that time praying: Don't go in, don't go in!I only felt chills all over my body, and at that moment, standing in front of the midfield seat, with the possibility of urine dripping on my legs, I was crazily shouting in my heart: Don't come in, don't come in!But my body was too terrified to say a word.

But that damn goal went in!
When I watched the video later, I could see Danny Green on the Cavaliers bench screaming behind the big 'Z', showing utter, pure fear, like seeing a ghost in a horror movie about to appear. Moments earlier, you could hear some weird, unique screaming noise from the fans, a gasp that roughly translates to, "Oh my God, our poor Cleveland is going to be killed by this rookie! "

You all know what happened later, that damned three-pointer scored, zero-second lore!

That picture appeared in my dreams countless times, and my damn insomnia started because of it. After that, I didn't get a good night's sleep in the next 20 years. It wasn't until the demon retired that I regained my self life.

The game was over, everyone tried to get up and leave the field, but they seemed to be frozen in place, they were stunned and unable to move, including my father, who was slumped on the chair, as if he had lost his life, and I was shaking He: "Father, we should go."

He still didn't move.

After a few seconds, my father looked at me.

"That ball shouldn't have gone in," he moaned. "How can this kind of ball be scored?"

I don't know the answer either. "

The first thing that sounded was not the exclamation of the fans, but the sound of the end of the game from the buzzer, and then a long moan followed. Gatsby turned his back to the basket, and the teammates in front of him excitedly He rushed over, and he knew that the ball - scored!
118:117!The Knicks beat the league's No. [-] Cleveland Cavaliers away!

Gatsby scored 46 points, 10 assists, 7 rebounds and 2 steals!

The great rookie once again scored a quasi-triple-double of 40+!

The enthusiasm of the reporters at the press conference after the game was the most enthusiastic Gatsby had ever seen since he entered the league, but the first reporter's question made Gatsby's enthusiasm seem to be poured with cold water.

"Mr. Gatsby, congratulations on scoring great data again, but I want to tell you that a reporter broke the news that the Knicks management intends to accept the Phoenix Suns' plan to trade you with Stoudemire. Do you know this? Something?"

Gatsby was a little dazed: "I know Phoenix has proposed a plan, but it shouldn't be put into practice so soon, right?"

The reporter laughed: "Isaiah Thomas said in an interview in the afternoon that the Knicks will accept this plan. The Knicks are very eager for Stoudemire! Mr. Gatsby, what do you think of this matter?"

Gatsby looked around blankly at the reporters staring at him. Coach D'Antoni next to him stepped forward to answer the reporters' questions on Gatsby's behalf: "This matter is just a rumor. Isaiah Thomas is not the general manager of the Knicks. What he said does not represent the Knicks, next question."

But the reporter insisted: "We all know that Isaiah Thomas has won the trust of James Dolan. Although his words cannot be equivalent to official announcements, they are not far from the truth. We don't need to avoid questions. Gates Mr. Bee, how do you feel now?"

D'Antoni was furious and was about to reprimand the reporter, but Gatsby waved his hand to stop D'Antoni.

Gatsby smiled bitterly: "I love New York, the fans in New York, and they love me sincerely. If I had the choice, I hope to retire here, but you also know that the league is a business league, and business is business." Well, if the Knicks traded me, I wouldn't be bitter, because it's a business, and I'd be sad if the Knicks fans told me to get the hell out of New York."

"Do you feel betrayed by being traded for your devotion to the Knicks?"

Gatsby shook his head. He tried his best to maintain a calm expression, but the sadness in his eyes let the reporters know that Gatsby was not feeling well. He said softly: "He (James Dolan) paid his salary, That's my job, and he pays me a salary, it's a job, isn't it?"

"No, Gatsby, this is a betrayal! New York fans know how hard you work, how much you sacrificed for the Knicks, we all know, Gatsby, we will not let you be expelled from New York by villains , you are our hero!" A reporter stood up.

Gatsby looked at the bald middle-aged reporter in surprise, and said, "Are you a reporter from New York?"

The middle-aged reporter shook his head and said, "I'm not a New York reporter, but I'm a New Yorker. I'm a Knicks fan. Gatsby, I'm your diehard fan. Don't worry, you were the one who played for us before." , now it’s our fans who will do something for you.” He turned his head and waved to the on-site personnel of the stadium management: “Turn the TV to New York TV, please.”

The big TV on the side lit up, and the background should be Madison Square Garden. There should have been thousands of people gathered in the square in front of the gate, and more people gathered one after another.

Reporters whispered to each other, and some took out their phones to consult friends.

Gatsby asked in surprise, "This is?"

The middle-aged reporter said with a smile: "Do you know what this is? This is the fans who support you. They are demonstrating for you. Look at that slogan."

Gatsby tried hard to identify, and a reporter beside him had already read out: "Gatsby is leaving, so are we!"

"And this: It's James Dolan who should go!"

"And more: Gatsby, New York is your home!"

"Here's another interesting one: Gatsby, no one can let you go, not even James Dolan!"

……

The reporters were scrambling to read the slogans that were deliberately expelled by the camera. When they turned their heads, they saw that Gatsby was already in tears.

The man did not shed tears, but he did not go to the sad place.
