Chapter 81 The Palace of Auburn Hills

Standing on the court of the Palace of Auburn Hills, Wang Shipeng looked at this famous arena with great reputation in the league with some emotion.

Wang Shipeng still remembers that when he first started watching basketball in his previous life, it was in 04 when the Yao-Mai combination was just formed.The Houston Reds are in the limelight domestically.Not to mention all the games broadcast by Tianchao Sports Channel were red teams, half of them were red teams.

And getting to know the Pistons is in a game where the red team challenged the Pistons away.

Watching Yao Ming's difficult game against Wallace, McGrady struggled under Prince's long arms.Immediately became curious about this team called the Pistons.

Later, I also found a lot of Pistons games to watch, so I am familiar with the Pistons and the Palace of Auburn Hills.

I just didn't expect that one day, I would stand on this court as an opponent in the playoffs.

Wang Shipeng is very confident in himself, relying on the super learning ability brought by time travel, relying on the increasingly rich arsenal, relying on the memories left by his years of scouting work in his previous life.It doesn't take much, next year, the Bulls will have a place in the league.

This year, let the Pistons be the first step in the Bulls' rise.Even if you can't beat your opponent, leave them scarred.

At 08:30 p.m., in the away locker room of the Palace of Auburn Hills, Cartwright was making the final arrangements for the disciples.

We have experienced an extraordinary season together. Not only have the players grown a lot, but the coaching staff headed by Cartwright has also grown accordingly.

Now everyone knows that the Bulls have two excellent centers with potential and strength that can rank among the top ten in the league, and they complement each other with one offense and one defense.He also has a superstar guard who is destined to enter the Hall of Fame in the future.

The skeleton of the Bulls' reconstruction has been set up. As long as the uniform staff and coaching staff don't play tricks, and select some suitable role players in the draft, the Bulls will become the league's elite again in a few years.

So Cartwright also has a sense of crisis. Although the team president has verbally promised to renew his contract, there may be variables every day if the pen is not signed.And this playoffs is the place with the most variables.

"We can get here step by step, showing that our ability is not inferior to anyone. How to deal with the Pistons, we have practiced many times before. Follow our training."

When Cartwright said this, everyone looked at Wang Shipeng.Because after the analysis of the coaching staff, the Pistons' inside defensive ability is the top in the league.Even if O'Neal is here, I'm afraid it will not be easy to parry. In contrast, Prince is the only defensive player on the outside, and now Prince is still too young and far from reaching his peak.

But the Bulls happen to have a good outside attack.Therefore, Cartwright's arrangement is to let Wang Shipeng open on the outside first, and drive the team's offense.

"Don't worry, coach." Wang Shipeng didn't say much, just nodded.Everyone will be at ease.

"Let's play!" Seeing that the responsible staff has come to urge.Cartwright waved his hand.

"Arthur, wait a minute." Pippen stopped Wang Shipeng who was about to play.

"What's wrong?" Everyone was a little curious.

"From today onwards, you will be the last to appear."

Pippen's words made everyone's expressions change.For a long time, the Bulls have played in the order of Wang Shipeng and Pippen at the end.This is also the respect everyone has for Pippen, a veteran of the dynasty.

Pippen accepted it calmly during the regular season, but in the playoffs, especially after he has decided to retire, Pippen feels that this position should be reserved for the person who should be reserved.

"No, Scott, I..." Wang Shipeng instinctively wanted to refuse.He really doesn't care much about this nominal position.

Pippen waved his hand and didn't say much.Instead, he went out first.He is not a person who talks too much, nor is he a person who fights for power and profit.Otherwise, it would be impossible to cooperate with Michael for so many years and become the strongest second master in history.

"Go, Arthur, you deserve it." Looking at the crowd who should have looked like this earlier, they heard Cartwright's words again.Wang Shipeng also nodded.Forget it, don't be hypocritical.

At this time, the announcer from the Palace of Auburn Hills also finished introducing the players of the home team and was about to introduce the visiting team.

"The first player to play is Ya, a super shooter from China..." The announcer in the away game will naturally not be as eloquent as at home, unless you are in the position of Jordan or the future boss.

But the announcer choked on a player appearing in the Bulls tunnel halfway through his speech.

Wang Shipeng, who was the first to play all season, did not appear, and the first to play turned out to be Scottie Pippen.

But after all, he is an old man who has been around for many years. He reacted very quickly on the spot and quickly changed his words: "The first one to appear is Batman Scottie Pippin from Arkansas!!"

Pippen naturally heard the announcer's mistake, but he could understand it.After all, today's matter is his temporary decision, and it is normal for the announcer to be unresponsive.

However, Pippen's unexpected appearance still caused some confusion on the scene.Not only the fans were discussing, but also the commentators in the commentary booth were also discussing.

"Kenny, do you think this is what Scott himself meant?" Barkley asked Smith beside him, shaking his bald head.

At the level of the two of them, it is natural that they do not understand what this matter means.What Barkley is interested in is whether this is Pippen's meaning, the Bulls' coaching staff's meaning, or the Chinese king's meaning,
Although the relationship between Barkley and Pippen is not good, after all, Pippen is one of the few players still playing in the era of the gods.

Among those people back then, Pippen and Reggie Miller were the only ones who had the same status as Barkley and are still in the league today.Barkley will naturally care about their situation.

"Of course it was what Scott meant. If the Bulls coaching staff or Arthur wanted this position, why wait until today." Smith saw it more clearly than Barkley.He understands that the rumor that Pippen will retire this summer is probably true.

In the chat between Barkley and Smith, the Bulls players have all played, and only the last one is left.

The commentator also seemed to clear his throat, as if he wanted to make his voice clearer: "Next up is the super shooter from the East—Wang Shipeng."

After the personnel have finished their appearance, the curtain is about to open.

My original plan was to let Wang Shipeng stay in the Bulls for two to three seasons and then leave.But now I think it would be nice to just replace the Bulls' boss.The idea is being perfected, we will wait and see.

Ask for collection, ask for reward, ask for recommendation.
