The rest is just noise

Chapter 630: This is the most awesome kill I have ever seen in my career.

On the first day of 1989, the Knicks announced something.

To be precise, it was Jack Krueger, the president of Madison Square Garden, which owns the Knicks, who announced an astonishing two-year, $200 million renovation plan at a press conference.

When MSG's renovation plan is completed, the New York Garden will become the best arena in the NBA.

Several indicators have been determined, including super large square screens, air-conditioning and heating covering the entire venue, better catering services, more surrounding shops, diversified merchants and the best stadium facilities.

They wanted to build an arena that would be relevant in 30 years.

To use such a large amount of funds, Kruger alone cannot decide. He needs to apply to the head company, the head office, Gulf Western Industries.

In the end, he received US$100 million in funding, and the remaining US$100 million will be provided by the team's sponsors and the New York City government.

After winning the championship last season, the Knicks ensured that they have the prospect of winning the championship in the next five years, making them the crown jewel of the New York area.

Of course, it is inevitable that a few local New Yorkers will complain: "Why do you have to raise transit fares when you have money to build the arena?"

The complaints stemmed from New York City's decision to raise transit fares from $1 to $1.15.

On January 3, the Knicks’ first game of the new year was a fourth game against the Celtics.

This time they no longer insisted on letting Sampson score in the penalty area. Isiah Thomas played at a good competitive level, but it is difficult for one person to defeat the Knicks.

Sampson had no touch when shooting, and the penalty area was covered by pocket formations. He only scored 16 points and 11 rebounds in the game.

This is why the Celtics lost.

The Celtics, who have transformed from the Big Three to the Big Two, are still one of the most competitive teams in the Eastern Conference, but to pose a threat to the Knicks, Thomas and Sampson need to work together.

What makes people feel even more powerless is that after entering the New Year, the Knicks' combat effectiveness has become even stronger.

Ewing played a DPOY defense, Rodman maintained the second DPOY defense, and Wilson also played an All-Defensive Team defense.

In one month, they limited their opponents to 84 points and scored 109 points themselves.

An average of 25 points per game in a single month is terrifying.

The only team that has a chance of causing the Knicks to lose in January is the Los Angeles Lakers.

Magic is evolving into a perfect player that is unfamiliar to Louis. He currently shoots 40% from three-point range, scores 2 goals per game, and has no obvious blind spots except for the left corner.

He mastered the mid-range high jump shot when he debuted.

The low post is misplaced and strong, and you hit each one when you see it.

Due to Magic's unsolvable offense, he actually co-existed with Pippen on the court while giving up a lot of ball rights.

The only problem is that the Lakers have no way to get Kevin Johnson to join the ranks.

Two ball-handlers can rely on unilateral sacrifice to achieve mutual success, but what about three ball-handlers?

However, Kevin Johnson, who is still willing to play as the sixth man, is the top candidate for the sixth man of the year, averaging 21+5+6 assists in 31 minutes per game.

Louie finds the Lakers could be a potential big wave SS.

Today, Magic's 38+11+9 assists near triple-double, Pippen's 17+10+7 economical quasi-triple-double and KJ's 28 points almost made the Knicks lose.

But the Lakers aren't the only ones with the star players to dominate games.

On the Knicks' side, Ewing dominated the penalty area, and Wilson scored 30 points with a 50% shooting rate to defeat Pippen.

After hitting the key ball, Ewing's dominance of the penalty area affected the Lakers' layout.

In the end, the Knicks defeated the Lakers 113-111.

This battle ensured the Knicks' unbeaten record in January.

They ended January with a record of 16 wins.

In addition to the complete victory in January, plus two wins in December last year, the Knicks currently rock the league with an 18-game winning streak.

Although it seems difficult to threaten the Lakers' 33-game winning streak, who can say for sure?

The New York Times never knows what a loser is: "If you were to ask me when the Knicks' winning streak would end, I would tell you after they break the Lakers' record."

After learning of the Times's comments, Louis responded immediately: "We are just lucky."

The milk power of Times did not happen immediately.

In the first game in February, Louis used a 13-man rotation to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers without taking the initiative to call a timeout.

That's 19 consecutive wins.

Then, they met the Indiana Pacers.

Danny Manning seemed to have initially adapted to the competition in the professional league, scoring 27 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 blocks and 4 steals.

The way he collected those data reminded Louis of Hakeem Olajuwon as a rookie.

Compared to Olajuwon, he looks like a small forward in many ways.

No one in the Pacers knows what path to take for Manning, because there is only one natural freak like Sampson. No matter how weird the others are, they all play inside, but Manning doesn't want to play like an inside.

Although Manning's performance was outstanding, the game still had to rely on hard strength to speak for itself.

The Pacers' hard power is not enough to win in New York.

The Knicks won 20 consecutive games.

Currently, they rank first in the league with a terrifying 45 wins and 2 losses, while the Jazz, ranked second in the league, only have 35 wins.

In February's first issue of Sports Illustrated, Louis appeared on the cover.

In the cover, Louis has his legs crossed and is drinking Coke from a paper cup. He looks so bored. This photo was taken during a game when the Knicks played the Cavaliers. It was regarded as a shameful and humiliating move by Clevelanders. "No one took the initiative to take a timeout."

"Contest.

The Knicks rotated with 13 players, 9 of them scored in double figures, and they blasted 139 points in regular time to beat the Cavaliers.

"'Satan's human body', 'Light Chaser', 'Little Lu', 'Leader Lu', kid, gang leader, whatever you want to call him, you have to admit, a 29-year-old professional basketball coach is ridiculous

A 29-year-old basketball coach who has spent five seasons in the top professional basketball is even more ridiculous. And the most ridiculous thing is that this 29-year-old basketball coach may be the best basketball coach in the world.

Oh, sorry, forgive me New York, I was wrong, Leader Lu is not 29 years old yet, in fact, he is only 28 years and 218 days old.

In just 5 years of career, Leader Lu’s achievements are as follows:

Lead the Green Army back to the top;

Turned Knicks from a rotting corpse into a lofty heir to the throne. Mind you, he wasn't even 29 when he did this. He still had at least 30 years to add to his legacy.

Now do you see how ridiculous this is?"

The famous writer of "Sports Illustrated" Jak McCallum wrote a super, super multi-word personal feature article for Louis.

This is the fourth time that Louis has appeared on the cover of the pictorial. It is difficult to say how many articles the pictorial has written for him.

Just when the whole world was expecting the Knicks to tie the Lakers' legendary winning streak and continue to improve their winning streak, they unexpectedly lost to the Washington Bullets.

Jeff Malone and Bernard King went absolutely crazy.

Only three players on the Bullets scored in double figures, and Malone and King scored 91 of them.

Jin scored 51 points and Malone scored 40 points.

The firepower of two people overshadowed the Knicks' entire set.

Even if they play a horrible offensive performance like a demon, the Knicks' overall integrity can help them drag the game to the end.

Judging from the results, Louis thinks it might be better not to wait until the end.

In the last three seconds, the Bullets did not pause. They sent a risky long pass to the midfield, and then passed it non-stop to Malone in the left corner of the frontcourt.

Even Malone is not available.

Rodman's defense has ensured that Malone cannot use his normal posture for a jump shot.

Since Rodman invaded his cylinder, he only dared to stand still when defending, but this was enough for Malone to be forced to jump out of bounds and throw a negative shot in the air with a twisted body posture.

Angle's three-pointer.

No matter how you look at it, there is no reason for this goal to be scored.

As long as they can play overtime, the Knicks' lineup depth can help them win easily.

But damn, the ball just went in!

Jim Karvellas, the two-way commentator of the Bullets and Knicks, yelled: "This is the most awesome buzzer beater I have ever seen in my career! There will be no buzzer beater by anyone that can surpass this goal.

, unless someone uses his dick to bounce the ball into the basket in the future!"

Now that things have happened, the Knicks can only accept it.

"You may not believe it, but when Jeff threw the last ball, I prayed in my heart that he made the shot. It turned out that he really made the shot. It seems that my prayer was quite useful." Louis explained, "We

We need a defeat to unload our burdens, and those arguments advocating that we can break our winning streak can be put to rest."

⑴Calavis served as the announcer for the Bullets from 1966 to 1980, and later came to New York and occasionally served as the announcer for the Knicks, so it was a two-way street.
