Chapter 222 Chapter 210 Chapter [-] Tony Douglas

On an ordinary day, March 2005, 3, in the morning, a Ford Mustang drove out of a newly developed high-rise residential area in New York.

Sitting in the car was Tony Douglas, who had been in New York for nearly a year.

Speaking of it, although he had a good time in the Knicks, Tony still regretted it.

At the beginning, the 28-year-old Tony Douglas was just the most ordinary member of the league, at the bottom of the league, and his job was precarious.

When Douglas was considering whether to accept the invitation of a moving company to do part-time jobs to prepare for possible unemployment, he met Wang Shipeng who had just arrived in the United States during training.

Then, somehow Wang Shipeng seemed to be pleasing to his eyes.The training often takes him with him, and he takes the trouble to teach him various techniques.In the game, he also won a lot of playing time for him.

Thinking about it now, it was probably because of Wang Shipeng's enthusiasm for him and training with him when he just reported.

"Maybe this is what the Chinese say that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring."

Douglas is very clear that he can go from a marginal player who will lose his job at any time to now New York's main substitute.Wang Shipeng helped him a lot.

Before last season, Douglas had been in low-level leagues all year round. Even if he had entered the league a few times, the time was not long.

Speaking of which, Douglas understands very well that the biggest problem for him not being able to stay in the league is not his physical fitness but his technique.

In terms of physical fitness, Tony Douglas is more confident than most No. [-] players in the league.

The 1.8-meter-eight Douglas weighs 86 kilograms, and his strength and speed are both top choices.Even bouncing can be at the upper-middle level.

However, there is no compulsory education in the United States.Douglas' family and mostly black families in the ghetto.His father left the family shortly after giving birth to him and continued to wander, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

The difference is that Douglas not only doesn't have a reliable father, he doesn't even have a reliable mother.

Lily, who gave birth to Douglas at the age of 14, did not realize the responsibility of parenthood.Throwing him to his mother also threw him into the wandering journey.

Fortunately, Douglas had a decent grandmother, so he survived into adulthood in good health.

But the grandmother who is in poor health can barely provide him with food and clothing, and is unable to let him enter the campus.Douglas spent his youth on street basketball courts.

So, in addition to having decent dribbling and passing skills.Douglas almost exclusively uses his body to overwhelm his opponent.

This is why Douglas couldn't gain a foothold in the league.

You know, in the next season, the all-American slam dunk king James White, who is about to enter the league, will not be able to gain a foothold in the league.What's more, Douglas has to be weakened a lot in all aspects.

Fortunately, Douglas has a not-so-stupid brain.Under Wang Shipeng's careful teaching, Douglas has grown a lot in one season.

Originally, Douglas did not intend to leave the Bulls.But the team seems to have no intention of re-signing him.And Wang Shipeng did not force Douglas to stay in Chicago.

After thinking twice, Douglas accepted the New York Knicks contract and came to New York.

Here, Douglas, who became the second point guard and bench controller after Marbury, completed a comprehensive evolution.

到2005年2月底为止，道格拉斯参加了全部61场比赛中的55场，在29.6分钟的上场时间中拿到12.6分，同时贡献6.3助攻4.1篮板，并且能够贡献1.1抢断。

Be the best defender and pacemaker in New York's backcourt.Many basketball experts have commented that if not counting the individual offensive power, Douglas's contribution to the team is no worse than that of Marbury in this period.

After all, the current Marbury has not gone to China yet, and he is not the political commissar of Ma who has undergone socialist transformation.

However, Douglas's excellence also aroused Marbury's vigilance. If it weren't for the time just arrived in 05, Thomas' control of the team was still in place.I'm afraid the Knicks have long been in civil strife.

Thomas also tried to let Douglas and Marbury start playing double point guard tactics at the same time. After all, in the Bulls last season, the backcourt combination of Douglas and Wang Shipeng was quite tacit and strong.

But obviously, Marbury and Douglas do not have the tacit understanding of the former.Thomas' reforms quickly failed.

Then, the way Douglas uses it freezes.As the team's sixth man, lead the second team, and try to stagger the use time with Marbury.If they play at the same time, Douglas will control the ball and Marbury will let go of the attack.

In other words, it was Douglas who was in charge of controlling the overall situation and let Marbury let go.With this style of play, it helped the Knicks win a lot of balls.As of the end of February, the Knicks have been firmly in the top eight in the Eastern Conference.

Because of this, Douglas, who looks simple and honest, has attracted a lot of fans in New York.

But Douglas was not happy. He got playing time, got the status of the team, and got a big contract and a group of girls.But Douglas missed Chicago more and more.

"Maybe I'm not born to do great things." Douglas smiled wryly.

Douglas was happy again at the thought that the king was coming.Although they are no longer teammates, they are still friends.This is Wang Shipeng's promise.He did too.

Although we haven't seen each other for a long time because of the intense competition schedule, Wang Shipeng always keeps in touch with Douglas and often gives him some advice.

Moreover, Wang Shipeng also directly agreed to Douglas' request to train together during the summer vacation.

"I can't go back in a short period of time. Let's see if I can go back to Chicago and play for a year or two before retiring."

Douglas started the car helplessly, and the game against the Bulls was about to begin, so he had to let Wang Shipeng see his progress.So, train.

Recently, there has been some caving, and I really can't write any more.I had to stop for a few days to sort out my thoughts.Take a break in February, and try to resume normal updates in March.
