Guard With a Knife

The next day, the New York fans collectively boiled, and the news about the Knicks defeating the Celtics in the first round away game had permeated all cultural and sports media. The Knicks are back in town since 2000.

"I have long said that Snoopy will bring us new hope. From the day the transaction happened, this matter has taken root in my heart."

"I swear, I'll never say a bad word about Isaiah Thomas again. I forgive him for all his stupidity and nonsense. Because he brought the Lord Duke to the Big Apple. And, from the recent Randolph /Marbury/Jeffries/Quentin Richardson and even Eddie Curry's performance, they are by no means rubbish contracts. They just haven't met the catalyst that can really integrate them. And the Duke It's that wonderful chemical weapon!"

"Shouldn't we turn our sympathetic eyes to Pat Riley now? The fortune teller got three worthless first-round picks. This is retribution, and he finally paid the price for his betrayal!"

"Hey, guys. What I want to say is that now we don't just win the first game. We will have a great probability to complete the black eight miracle again!! I can't imagine that Madison Garden will be at that time What to become!"

"New York shouldn't have only one Yankee team, we have to be the best in the world in basketball!"

"..."

Eddie Curry and Zach Randolph got together. They even forgot to eat the breakfast on the table, and their eyes were always on the Knicks fan forum. The overwhelming appreciation made them laugh like children weighing more than three hundred pounds.

"Hey, did Snoopy see that? They're praising us for being number one inside the league." Eddie Curry grinned and said, "This is a smart fan, he knows the power of post-up singles Invincible in the playoffs. But ... I really feel like I should put more physical training into it."

Doug looked at the matte and matte over there. He smiled helplessly.

However, judging from the mental state of the two, they are developing in a good direction. At least...Eddie Curry knew that he offered to practice more.

This was never possible with him before. He is far more interested in fattening than those cold gym equipment.

After a while, Steve Marbury came over. He clicked on his BlackBerry, and ESPN reported an insider tip.

"According to people familiar with the matter, Snoopy took control of the Knicks locker room, and all players surrendered to him with the assistance of Steve Marbury, accepting his core position. Steve Marbury even moved out of the East leader The idea of ​​​​as a way to lead the locker room.

"

The report was vivid, and Dug frowned and continued to read: "Herb Williams is basically Snoopy's puppet, and he completely obeys Snoopy's orders. He is an ignorant mediocrity from the beginning to the end, Even the tactics were arranged by Snoopy himself!"

"This rookie is far more dangerous than people think. He suddenly attacked when the playoffs came, and used extremely harsh methods to drive away Isaiah Thomas and D'Antoni. If this continues, he will put the Knicks into the endless abyss..."

The number of hits on this insider news quickly exceeded one million, and it is spreading across the Internet at a crazy speed.

A rookie drove away two entrenched head coaches overnight, and at the same time suppressed all the players, completing the iron-blooded rule of the team... Such a gimmick easily grabbed the headlines of the sports media and the attention of troublemakers.

Under this report, the number of critics is very large. Apparently, even in the United States, people don't like such a crime. Moreover, this article described Snoopy as too scheming, as if since he joined the Knicks, the position of absolute leader has fallen into his calculations.

"You said, it was D'Antoni who was stabbed by that bastard Isaiah!" Marbury, who was described as an important accomplice by this article, said through gritted teeth.

He reminded Doug: "You can't be soft-hearted at this time. If we win this series, you must propose to the top management to directly fire them. A team does not allow two voices. When the time comes, I will contact other players , responding to you with direct action."

Doug frowned. He didn't think D'Antoni or Isaiah Thomas were behind the tricks, and this matter was not good for their face. After all, it is definitely not a glorious thing to be kicked out of the locker room by a fledgling rookie.

And, while they're furious about being stripped of command, they're not exactly tearing each other apart, and they're still looking forward to working with them next season.

Doug frowned, and he locked his eyes on the author of this article: Bill Simmons.

Bill Simmons is a very famous basketball commentator on ESPN, and he is a veteran Celtics fan.

And he's in Boston right now.

Therefore, the news may have been released from within the team.

So who is it?

Doug frowned.

But he did not tell Marbury about this conjecture. If Marbury knows this conjecture, he will definitely carry out resolute anti-revolutionary actions within the team, which is extremely detrimental to the team that has finally merged together.

"Let's not pursue this matter first, let's talk about it after the game."

Doug replied.

"But... your reputation and my reputation are being slandered in the sports circle. Their critics don't know the internal situation of our team." Marbury said angrily.

Duger smiled slightly, and he said calmly: "These critics on the Internet are used to attacking other people's seats for joy. Their remarks have no reference meaning for us, and it is not a good thing. When we continue to win , the person who scolds us the most will turn into the person who praises us the most in the end."

Doug's voice remained silent.

Zach Randolph on the opposite side raised his head. He pointed to the computer screen and said, "Hey, Snoopy, look quickly. New York fans formed a special event to defend the correct line of the Duke. Now more than 3,000 fans have signed !!"

Doug turned the laptop around and pointed to the computer screen and said to Steve Marbury: "See? The opinion of the New York fans is the most important thing."

Marbury lowered his head and found that the messages on the webpage were rising crazily.

"I believe that the fans who watched the halftime game last night will stand on the Duke's side. Isaiah Thomas and D'Antoni didn't regard victory as a pursuit at all. They just wanted to consolidate their position in the team. Such a Head coach, of course you have to get out, the Duke is absolutely right to do so."

"I really want to find out this bastard who broke the news. Isn't it enough to get the support of all the players? The Duke is obviously the savior, but he just calls it a conspiracy!"

"Snoopy, as a top student of Anderson School of Business, his IQ is by no means comparable to ordinary coaches. In fact, he also led the team to victory! Don't tell me that Kentrick Perkins is injured, he When he was on the floor, the Knicks still overtook the score!"

"If Steve Marbury is really involved and plays an important role in assisting the Duke. Then I will definitely clear up all the bad impressions of him before. I am even willing to shout again: Son of New York!!"

"Those commentators who live by their mouths should wash their eyes. Their reports are not based on facts at all. If they watched the game, they would only slap their palms on this matter! Of course, the Celtics The Knicks fans must really hope that this incident affects the morale of the Knicks. As the defending champions, they have been pushed to the edge of a cliff, and they can only hope for chaos within the Knicks."

"This may be a conspiracy created by the Bostonians..."

"..."

All the same, not a word of criticism.

Some smiles finally appeared on Steve Marbury's solemn face. When he saw the title of Son of New York again, he even had the urge to cry.

At this time, Doug's cell phone rang.

It was James Dolan calling.

"I saw the reports on the Internet, I hope you don't get disturbed, the team supports you."

James Dolan's tone was very affirmative, and he emphasized: "We will definitely find out this whistleblower from the inside and give you an explanation!"

Doug nodded yes.

It doesn't matter what the outside world reports. The attitude of the team owner is what matters.

When he was on Duge's side, it didn't matter even if Duge was really as wily and domineering as the report said.

The smile on Steve Marbury's face grew wider when he heard the boss's speech from the loudspeaker. His brain already knew that Snoopy was a blessing in disguise because of this incident. The whistleblower made a stupid instigation, and he helped Doug further strengthen his domination of the Knicks from the opposite direction.

Later, James Dolan encouraged Dug to continue to work hard and strive for the creation of the black eight miracle.

Duge told him with certainty, "I have no way out."
