The Point Guard is Here

"At least you got a long vacation."

Gary Payton comforted Fancy on the plane back to Los Angeles.

In the past 24 hours, media around the world have been reporting on the basketball god fighting back against his opponents on the court.

Although some American media characterized it as a vicious act of stadium violence.

But in the wider public discussion, Fanci was a hero.

Undoubted hero.

Fancy was sneak-attacked by Chris Webber, and the reason he was there was to protect his teammates.

Chris Webber should be the nasty, despicable clown.

As the initiator of violent actions, he should bear the most important responsibility.

But in the end, the official penalty given by the league was that Chris Webber was suspended for 35 games and Jack Fan was suspended for 38 games. Weber was fined $25,000 and Fanci was fined $30,000.

Bobby Jackson was suspended for 15 games, Brad Miller was suspended for 18 games, and Kwame Brown was suspended for 6 games and fined $20,000, $25,000, and $10,000 respectively.

After this penalty was issued, it aroused strong dissatisfaction in the New York media circle. They always believed that Fan Xi was the victim, and Fan Xi could only be regarded as self-defense even in a legal sense.

However, the alliance obviously wants to give everyone an explanation.

As well as quelling Fanci's resentment for taking away the Olympic gold medal from the Dream Team in the summer.

The penalty this time was very, very severe. Strictly speaking, it exceeded the penalty at the Palace of Auburn Hills.

Fan Xi's management team originally wanted to do image public relations, but within one day after the incident, Fan Xi's reputation rose rapidly.

In the past, the league's signature superstars such as Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson did not fight. They were usually well protected by their teammates. Once a conflict occurred, the team would arrange thugs to protect them.

Fan Xi has created a new model.

Not only did he personally fight, but he also protected his teammates, fought on the front line, and took the lead.

This kind of heroism, this kind of bravery despite the death of thousands of people, deeply moved Americans. This kind of personal heroism is too suitable for American tastes.

Therefore, the money originally intended for crisis public relations quickly turned into new commercial marketing. Fanshie's sneaker brand took advantage of the situation to launch Sartmento color matching and added the symbol of the fist.

It is foreseeable that this sneaker will sell a lot, especially the marketing guys in the planning department. Since they learned to sell in limited quantities, the price of sneakers has skyrocketed. Even Nike, the ancestor of hunger marketing, has openly and secretly criticized Fan Xi. That's not a good idea.

However, this just shows that in terms of business model, Fanxi brand's move is successful.

"Have a good rest, Jack. The rest of the game will be left to us. "

On the plane, Milicic came over very seriously, and he wanted to take the initiative to take on this responsibility.

There was also Kwame Brown. Fan Xi helped him fight, but he was so moved that he repeatedly vowed to Fan Xi that he would perform super well to repay Fan Xi's kindness. He even burst into tears as he said that since he entered the league, no one has ever treated him so sincerely and treated him as a real little brother.

Seeing Kwame Browner's bowed expression, Milicic patted his chest and said he would carry the team on his shoulders. Fan Xi felt that this incident was somewhat of a blessing in disguise.

Because Kwame Brown's 'parallel import index' instantly rose to 60%, which means that he has finally got rid of the curse of parallel imports... It can be seen that the reason why these guys are inferior is not entirely due to technical and physical quality, but psychological factors account for Bigger reason.

In addition to the two major parallel imports, the other rookies were also shocked. Fan Xi's gesture of moving his hands was so handsome.

If you hang out with such a boss, you have no worries.

After all, there are far more bosses in this world who are "conflicting with me" than "with me".

James Dolan is also this kind of boss.

He has stated in the media that he will pay the fines of Jack Fan and Kwame Brown, and that afternoon he invited the media to go to the league headquarters with him. He loaded a truck with 30,000 US dollars and paid the fines in coins.

This move expressed the Knicks' dissatisfaction and won unanimous praise from the New York media.

At the same time, he also said: "I will not use this as a reason to deduct Jack's salary. He can still get his full salary. If he needs psychological counseling, the team will also pay for his psychologist."

…

Fanci was given a lengthy vacation that will last until the second weekend before the All-Star break.

This will have a profound impact on the league structure, especially the Eastern Conference playoff situation.

Some people even think that the Knicks may not even make the playoffs this season, because the Knicks without Fanshie are simply an NBAL-level team. How can two or three veterans and a bunch of newcomers possibly gain a foothold in the NBA?

There was a lot of cynicism about the Knicks in the media.

By the way, some people also pulled out Jack Fan's five consecutive championships to ridicule. Most people thought that after this, the Knicks' dream of winning this season will be shattered.

Besides Fan Xi, the person who was ridiculed the most was Gary Payton.

"...Gary Payton really didn't have a good vision for his team. He went to the Lakers to hug him, and the Lakers were swept in the Finals. He went to the Knicks. The Knicks didn't even make the playoffs, and Jack Fan was suspended for half a game. season.”

"If Gary Payton continues like this, not only will he not be able to win a championship, but future championship teams will stay away from him. He will be the bane of championships."

These heartbreaking comments had a real impact on Gary Payton.

He called Fan Xi many times late at night and told Fan Xi his troubles. Fan Xi repeatedly strengthened his confidence and told him: This matter is nothing. When I come back, everything will bloom.

Fanshi's words made Gary Payton doubtful.

After all, he is not a veteran like Reggie Miller. Reggie Miller is very calm now. He works on the team every day as if he is clocking in to work. He even applies for rest from time to time. He plays the game as if he is on vacation.

Don't worry about the team's record at all.

He also repeatedly emphasized to Gary Payton: Let these little guys play now. It doesn't matter whether they win or lose. It doesn't matter whether the record is good or not. Anyway, after Jack comes back, there will be no problem in the playoffs. Don't listen to what the media says. The Pistons and Heat will be worried about us at that time. They won't dare to meet us in the first round of the playoffs.

But Gary Payton has really been afraid of losing throughout his career. He is like a bewildered gambler who lacks confidence. When the wind is going well, he can talk and laugh, but once he enters adversity, he can no longer laugh. He is worried about gains and losses. external symptoms.

The Knicks' record did plummet after Fanci left.

Under Fanci's instructions, the Knicks adopted a style of play that focused on newcomers, and the Knicks' method of training rookies was also quite strange. The coaching staff did not set up any special core to make a big pot of rice. Don Cheney asked the players to work independently on the basis of unity and hone their killer skills.

This approach allows players to quickly find their comfort zone and quickly integrate into the game.

However, it is not of much help to the record.

The Knicks originally lacked experience, and coupled with the fact that they played so scatteredly, a losing streak became an inevitable trend.

Fan Xi has been staying in New York during this period. He does not follow the team to play away games, but he often goes to the training hall to train.

Shortly after Fanci's suspension, his first son was born.

Different from Fanler.

Fan Xi's first child was a boy.

But Fanler and Madonna were so excited that they rushed from Los Angeles to New York immediately, mobilized a large number of people, and spent a lot of money. This is the third generation of the Fan family.

Fan Xi followed Fan Le's advice and named his first son Fan Zheng.

I hope that the eldest son will be upright and upright.

The English name was left to Madonna and his mother to decide, and the name was eventually named Bright, which means strict self-discipline, suave, and "the glory of wealth" in the name.

Fan Xi doesn't understand.

Madonna and the baby are on fucking terms.

Then call him Brad.

On the third day after Fan Zheng was born, he received gifts from all the aunts. In this matter, he had a unique advantage. The aunts all expressed joy and joy at his arrival, especially because he was exceptionally handsome and cute. , very charming.

He placed many aunts' imaginations on their children.

His appearance even made Jennifer Aniston worry about the child she would give birth to, and she worried that her child might not be as handsome as Brad.

but.

Brad's mother is a smart woman who has always been very excited about Jennifer Aniston. She even knew that she was pregnant in the first place because of Jennifer's trust.

In fact, Jennifer has always felt like a wealthy lady.

She and Madonna learned a lot about Chinese culture, and Madonna told her that your child must be a legitimate son.

However, there seems to be a variable in this. Kate Winslet also considers herself to be the official wife. She is officially engaged to Fanci and has the same legal effect as Jennifer.

Kate Winslet loves little Fan Zheng very much. She brought the most abundant gifts. Not only did she bring a five-kilogram gold Buddha to little Fan Zheng, she also bought an apartment, saying that it would be a proper marriage for Xiao Fan in the future. house.

This wave of planning for a rainy day can be regarded as starting from scratch.

Time flies, and when New Year's Day comes, good news comes to Kate Winslet. She is also pregnant with Fan Xi's child.

Two weeks later, Jennifer's child was born.

It's a boy.

Fan Xi was named Fan Cheng, which means a successful career and standing upright.

Madonna and Jennifer came up with the English name together, called Melchior. It means the territory of the king, with great achievements and far-sightedness.

Obviously, Jennifer has perfectly inherited the ancient Eastern civilization's idea of ​​"hoping for a child to become a dragon".

This is the legitimate son in her mind, and he will definitely inherit Fan Xiruo's huge wealth empire in the future.

Fan Xi didn't think so much, he was just happy. He was more excited than ever to have two healthy and handsome sons all of a sudden.

He enjoys the family atmosphere and this is the happiest time since he entered the league.

…

What people didn't expect was that Gary Payton took the initiative to apply for a trade before February arrived.

Moreover, he asked the Knicks to trade him to the Miami Heat, and he even played the favor card with Isiah Thomas.

Fan Xi tried to retain him, but he really had no confidence. In his eyes...the young guys in the Knicks had no chance at all. They were just a group of energetic huskies who would just hit the court.

Iguodala will be happy and suddenly take the ball for a one-on-one challenge.

Ariza would say nothing and randomly throw 11 shots from outside the three-point line in the half.

Jefferson sometimes seemed to be dancing like a god, suddenly dribbling the ball from outside the three-point line to attack, and Varejao's pull-up jump shot, they were like a group of uncontrolled artificial intelligence.

But the Knicks' coaching team indulged them immensely.

Let them play freely.

As an experienced point guard, he saw at a glance that the Knicks had entered the source of chaos. If they indulged like this, these guys would become more and more uncontrollable, just like a big tree with branches, and there was no chance to touch the Supreme.

The most desperate thing for Gary Payton was the two fakes, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix.

These two people didn't know where they got their confidence from. They claimed to be the chosen ones within the team, and the group of Huskies echoed them. Even knowledgeable people like Reggie Miller said that they were rare geniuses in a century, and Patrick Ewing and Olajuwon were bragging for teaching fees.

Now the self-confidence of these two people has reached an unprecedented level.

When facing Duncan, Kwame Brown was full of confidence to defend him and challenge him.

When facing Duncan, Kwame Brown also screamed and rushed forward, slapping the floor.

The result is self-evident, he was blown up.

But it happened, and the Knicks still praised him as unique.

Milicic found a large group of power forwards such as Garnett, Nowitzki, and Wallace. He is a little different from Kwame Brown, who plays physical confrontation. This guy said that his skills and IQ are far higher than these people, and he wants to play with high IQ. As a result, he turned around and around and couldn't find the north, making a lot of jokes.

However, the coaching team also praised him for being smart, wise and courageous, and Olajuwon even praised his pace for having obtained 90% of his essence.

So he still knows nothing?

Under tremendous pressure, Gary Payton applied for a trade.

And he didn't look back.

He strongly asked Isaiah Thomas to be a good man, considering that he had not won the championship for so many years.

After hearing the news, Van Hee sighed.

He finally called Gary Payton.

But Gary Payton was determined.

What else could Van Hee say?

Let's part ways in peace.

So the Knicks, Heat, and Boston came together to make a three-way deal.

The Knicks sent Gary Payton and McDyess, and got the rookie point guard Tony Allen that Van Hee had always wanted from Boston, and got another power forward, Haslem, from the Miami Heat, plus 1 million cash from the Miami Heat, the first-round draft pick in 2006, and the first-round draft pick in 2005 from Boston.

The discussion about this deal surged again.

People generally believed that the Knicks were aiming for the No. 1 pick in 2005.
