the great gatsby

Chapter 441 A common problem among young people!

The Knicks easily defeated the Celtics, but the match between the Miami Heat and the Philadelphia 76ers was not so easy. Anthony may be outdated in his style of play in the future, and his physical fitness will decline. And Anthony has become better after two years of experience in the Knicks. The young people of the 76ers were not bad at first, and they exploded with great potential under his leadership.

Although he still lost the first game, the Heat did not show an overwhelming victory. Anthony justified himself in this battle. He scored 45 points, 8 assists and 11 rebounds, showing his superstar strength. Defeated with a stronger overall strength, but he deserves the name of a superstar!

The first game between the Chicago Bulls and the Brooklyn Nets ended with the Nets winning, but the Bulls without Rose are still not easy to mess with. Nate Robinson and Belinelli on the bench stood up, especially Nate Robinson made 12 of 8 shots and his efficiency was frighteningly high. When he was interviewed by reporters after the game, he had some criticisms about his former teammate Gatsby.

"Four years ago, I was sent away by the Knicks. The reason for sending me away was because I had conflicts with Gatsby. I have been wandering in the following days, but I did not give up. I just hope that one day I can stand on his side. In front of him, tell him personally that I am no worse than him!"

But when the reporter conveyed the words to Gatsby, Gatsby was stunned for a while before he smiled and said: "Nate is a good player. He feels that he has conflicts with me, but I don't think so. It's just because of competition. Created a conflicting illusion, he was sent away, but the management felt that I was more suitable for the future of the Knicks, and now they have proved it.

I hope Nate can find his place in the Bulls, and I hope every player who goes out from the Knicks has a good future.But I also understand Nate's desire to compete with me. If he wants to play against me, according to the schedule, he should lead the team to the Eastern Conference Finals.I hope he can do it. "

Gatsby’s words are very graceful, but there is a needle in the needle. He denied the conflict with Nate Robinson, but attributed it to the competition within the team, and he also said that he is more suitable for the Knicks, which means that Nate Robinson was sent away. is correct.He didn't directly counter Robinson's challenge, but said that he was not the leader of the team at all, and he couldn't lead the team to the Eastern Conference finals. This statement was polite and did not show weakness.

The reporter secretly praised that this is the magnanimity of the No. 1 player in the league.

In the western part of the war, Harden took the Rockets to challenge his old club, the Thunder, and was beaten by Durant and Westbrook. The Thunder beat the Rockets by 29 points!But for Harden, it is already very remarkable. He brought the Rockets into the playoffs in his first season with the Rockets.

The Lakers who lost Kobe were defeated by the Spurs. Howard, Gasol, and Nash performed reasonably well, but Kobe was the leader of the Lakers. Without Kobe, the Lakers became weak. Lakers fans missed Kobe extremely.They always hated iron when Kobe was here, but after Kobe was reimbursed, they knew what Kobe meant to the Lakers, and they didn't know that this kind of life would continue for many years in the future.

On April 4, the second game between the Knicks and the Celtics started as scheduled. The Celtics had already started to work hard. Pierce, 23 years old, played for 36 minutes and scored the team's highest score of 40 points. Te played 18 minutes, scored the team's second highest score of 38 points and grabbed 12 rebounds. The two team leaders scored 12 and 12 points with all their might. It can be seen how weak their offense is. Scored 18 points.

But I have to say that they did a good job defending tonight, limiting the Knicks' scoring to less than 100 points and only scoring 99 points. Even so, that's a 28-point difference. Fans can also see that the strength gap between the Celtics and the Knicks is too great!
Experts began to discuss the Knicks' opponent in the next round.

The Celtics aren't going to let it go.

On April 4, the Knicks with a 28:2 lead came to Boston. This is a city that is hostile to its opponents. It used to be the Los Angeles Lakers. Now the Knicks are their mortal enemy. The Knicks have pressed them in the East time and time again. Inside, this made all the Boston fans hate the Knicks and gritted their teeth, with a hideous face, as if they were about to jump into the court and punch the Knicks players in the next moment.

The malice was so strong that Green and Harris, young people who had never experienced it before, looked a little strange. Gatsby patted them on the shoulder with a smile and encouraged them loudly, but their expressions were still a little strange after all. nature.

The game started after the season highlights produced by the Celtics home staff. Boston made the whole scene very exciting, and even the frustrated Celtics players couldn't help but get excited.

Pierce, who had been suppressed for two consecutive games, finally broke out. He began to break through regardless of his physical strength. Defense is passive. Even though Pierce is old, he used to be a top small forward. Can't stand him.

Jeff Green also broke out. Tonight he has a great touch. Thompson has defended hard enough, but Jeff Green can go in. Jeff Green is taller than Thompson. Once he finds the touch, it will be difficult to stop.

Home court is home court after all, and the cheers of the fans gave the Celtics huge motivation. They kept running on the court and played a true Celtics game.

The Knicks have a lot of young people. Once they play well, no matter how strong the team is, they will have to sing conquest in front of them. But when the play is not smooth, the current situation will appear, and they will be overwhelmed by the Celtics. However, Gatsby led the team to hit a few waves of counterattacks, but the Boston Celtics relied on their resilience to pull the score away bit by bit.

第三战波士顿凯尔特人在主场扳回一局，全场比分98:101分险胜，皮尔斯32分4助攻5篮板，杰夫格林28分2助攻4篮板，两人撑起凯尔特人的半壁江山。

The Celtics breathed a sigh of relief. If they lose this game today, they will probably have to pack up and prepare to go fishing. They renewed their contract and began to prepare for the rebuilding work. In fact, winning this game only delayed the arrival of this moment. Everyone in the team knew that it was time for Boston to rebuild. Their core was too old. Whether the young people are worthy of being cultivated as the cornerstone of the team can only be bad for one or two seasons, save a few good picks, select rookies worthy of training, or poach players from other teams as the cornerstone of the team.

This kind of thing is not surprising. A saying that NBA players often say is: business is business.They enter this league for their dreams or for money, they will fall out with the team for the big contract, and they will rush to train their home team for the big contract, but whether it is the team or the players, their ultimate goal It's all in your own interest.

Players can leave their home team in order to earn more money, and the team can naturally abandon players for their own interests. The NBA is not without warmth, but all warmth is based on business rules. Once warmth conflicts with business rules, the rules will be based on Unrivaled momentum beats warmth.

The Knicks lost to the Celtics. Although the Celtics were at home and extremely resilient, as well as the extraordinary performance of Pierce and Jeff Green, the Knicks also showed the flaws of young people. In the final analysis, a game is a mistake that young people will make. Before the game, Gatsby repeatedly emphasized that neither should be rash or careless, but the two easy victories still made young people careless.

Gatsby didn't lose his temper, a fiasco was enough for the young man to reflect.

After the game, he did not accept an interview, but went directly back to the locker room. D'Antoni and the coaching staff went to deal with the reporters, and Gatsby had to go back to the locker room to solve some problems.

The locker room where they lost was quite noisy. The Knicks stood on the table and sang and danced loudly. Green, Harris and others were singing and laughing. Others were also laughing and playing along. Thompson was holding a beer on the side. I drank silently.

The locker room is full of demons dancing. This is a common scene in the NBA locker room. It is difficult for you to calm down these energetic black athletes who have their own rap talents.

Gatsby leaned on the locker with a smile and listened to them singing, and knocked on the closet when it was almost time. Nick Yang and the others heard the sound, turned their heads and saw that it was Gatsby, and quickly got off the table.

Gatsby stood up and walked over, smiled and said, "I thought we won?"

The crowd immediately fell silent when they heard this, and they seemed to be silent. Gatsby seldom got angry, but the strange thing was that once Gatsby got angry, they became even more fearful.

Gatsby dragged a chair, and the stool legs slid on the ground and made an unpleasant sound. This sound made them even more uneasy. Gatsby put the chair in the middle with a bang, with its back facing the crowd, and Gatsby Sit up astride and put your hands on the back of the chair.

He smiled and said, "I don't want to blame you, but there is a thought among us that underestimates the enemy, and that's what we lost today."

Green said: "Boss, it's normal to lose. No team can remain undefeated."

Gatsby nodded and said: "You are right. I can accept a normal loss, but tonight's loss was unjust. Our strength surpassed the Celtics, but we lost !" Gatsby turned to look at Green: "Drummond, where's your help defense? Jeff Green broke into it many times tonight, and I didn't see you help defend?"

Green shut up.

"Also, Kawhi, I didn't see you rushing the offensive rebounds like you used to. What happened?"

Leonard lowered his head.

"Klay, you took 12 three-pointers tonight and you hit two of them. I want to know what happened to you?"

Thompson took a sip of his beer.

"Tobias, I didn't see you break through tonight, you always shoot the ball, why, you gave up your own characteristics?"

Harris opened his mouth to speak, but swallowed it back.

Gatsby commented one by one, there was no anger on his face, his tone was very calm, and he even had some smiles on his face, but none of this group of jumpy young people dared to jump out and scold Gatsby. It was a nod, and if Gatsby praised them, they would smile happily.

As a veteran player, Iguodala is observing carefully. Gatsby's response and the reaction of the young people make him more and more admired. Gatsby's control of the locker room is really handy. He has already obtained The sincere love of these young people!
About half an hour later, D'Antoni and others returned to the locker room. D'Antoni loosened his tie and complained to Gatsby: "If you don't go, the reporters are targeting me. You don't know this group of How rough the Boston reporter is!"

Gatsby smiled and said: "We have a division of labor and cooperation. You deal with the outside world and I deal with the inside. You are responsible for dealing with the media, and I am responsible for helping the brothers with their psychological massage."

Green and the others all laughed. D'Antoni looked back at his disciples with no frustration or loss on their faces, and nodded in satisfaction. In the team, paralysis is certainly the enemy, but morale is the most rare thing.

"You know what those Boston reporters are saying. They said that the Knicks have too many young people. Losing in the playoffs is a matter of course. The old ones are the best. You little kids can't stand the pressure. This is That's normal. Do you think they are right?" D'Antoni smiled.

Green scolded angrily: "What the hell, have they forgotten how they lost the first two times? What gave them such an illusion?"

D'Antoni smiled and said: "That's what I said. Although young people have problems of one kind or another, they are all growing up. They will eventually become mature one day, and this day will not be too far away. Maybe it will be the next game." Contest."

Gatsby applauded and said, "Well said, next game, let's make them look good. The disintegration of the Celtics is imminent, so let's give them one last ride."

Everyone laughed.

The Knicks lost the game did attract a lot of people's attention. The Knicks chased hard in the second half, which made the Miami Heat, the current Eastern Conference leader, especially vigilant. No matter how many young people there are in the Knicks team, as long as Gatsby is there Underestimated, Gatsby's ability at critical moments is too terrifying for anyone to ignore.

After all, the Knicks have won two consecutive championships. With the strength they have shown and the crushing victory they have shown against the Celtics, no one dares to ignore it.

But this loss against the Celtics showed how unstable the Knicks are. They are strong, but they are also young. Young people make mistakes. Young people tend to get hot-headed. This is a common problem. So what might be possible next?
