The rest is just noise

Chapter 950 Rodman disappears from the world

The Knicks are like the Blazers' destined nemesis.

Although very powerful reinforcements were made, after flaws were discovered, the Blazers embarked on a difficult road of trial and error in order to adapt to external targets.

Pat Riley is not afraid of losing, he is afraid of not being able to solve the problem.

On the other hand, if the problem can be solved, losing is acceptable to them.

With their win gap being pulled by the Knicks by two games, and with the Knicks almost never losing after April, it is simply a luxury to catch up with them at the end of the season.

They lost to the Heat by 6 points.

That night, a reporter asked Laili: "Are you worried about the lack of home court advantage in the playoffs?"

Laili said confidently: "We are still No. 1 in the Western Conference."

"What about the Finals?" the reporter explained, "There is a view that if there was no home court advantage in last season's Finals, maybe the Knicks would lose the Finals."

After hearing this, Laili looked at the reporter's origin and found that he was a reporter from the Oregon region.

This is equivalent to caring for your own family.

"Thank you for your concern." Lai Li developed the habit of treating the media correctly during his years in Los Angeles that were filled with failures.

In Los Angeles, even the coaches are big stars, so when talking to media people, you have to pay attention to your attitude and tone, and not reveal too much.

But he has nothing to hide on this issue.

"But this problem can be looked at from another angle. I think the competitiveness of the Western Conference is far higher than that of the Eastern Conference. There are many teams competing for the championship in the Western Conference. So, for us, as long as we have the home court advantage in the Western Conference, it is

It's enough, as for the finals, we are ready."

"If the opponent is Miami, we are sure to win. If the opponent is New York, if we go to Game 7 again and New York thinks their home court advantage will come into play again, my players will use the cruel reality

Let them wake up from their dreams." Laili was so excited that what he said had come true. "For me personally, I am very eager to see this scene. Get up from where you fell. This is what a man should do.

made."

The words of Lai Li inspired the team and angered the opponents at the same time.

Especially tonight, they just lost to the Heat, and then they said in front of reporters that they were sure to beat them in the finals?

Heat head coach Billy Donovan has been with Louie for several years, and he has learned a lot from coach Louie.

In addition to advanced competition concepts, there is also a tit-for-tat style.

"What Coach Laili said is generally correct, but this kind of thing should be said by those coaches who have great success."

Donovan said angrily.

"If Coach Lu said that, I wouldn't say anything about it. But Coach Lai Li? I'm not disrespecting him. Coach Lai Li has been in the professional basketball circle for many years and is well-known, but he won very little. He lost the most in history.

The head coach of the final.”

Donovan is still too young.

Louis has long stopped talking in front of the media.

How vulgar, is it fun to talk?

uh-huh?

In fact, it's not that Louis doesn't pay attention to Lai Li, it's just that his attention was diverted by other things.

Rodman has missed training sessions continuously since April.

For a week, he neither came to training nor participated in games. His agent could not contact him, and he disappeared from the world.

Finally it was a tabloid called West of Manhattan that told Louis Rodman what he was doing: "Knicks star Dennis Rodman's relationship with Madonna hits a rough patch!"

The news in the tabloids is usually based on rumors.

But the tabloid revealed a lot of inside information that no one else knew.

Louis knew those inside stories were true.

People with these inside stories are basically leaking secrets under orders.

This is a common routine in the entertainment industry. If someone wants to break up, they will use the power of the media to make the matter bigger. No matter what the result is, give them a vaccination first.

If the two parties break up on bad terms, they may even expose each other.

Although Madonna had had enough of Rodman, she planned to get back together and break up, so the tabloids only said that she had irreconcilable differences with Rodman, but did not say what the differences were, nor did they say that Rodman was a

It is despicable to ignore one's own work and the feelings of teammates and coaches for the sake of women.

Louis was extremely angry.

In order to maintain stability, he gave Rodman special privileges.

Rodman is the only one on the team who can miss training sessions from time to time.

Every time he missed training, Louis would scold him publicly and then give him a symbolic fine (which would eventually be paid back in full in the form of bonuses), so that, at least on the surface, his teammates could accept it.

In order to become the Rodman deep inside, Rodman changed his hairstyle every night, and together with Madonna, he became one of the most watched couples in the United States.

They are the best bad boy and bad girl pairing ever.

Even with Madonna, Rodman had a "come on, I'm welcome" attitude to those flesh and blood who tried to achieve the feat of "sleeping with Rodman."

"Now that Madonna is breaking up with him, isn't that a damn good thing for him?" Louis asked.

In front of Louis stood Wilson.

Although Wilson and Rodman have a good relationship, they don't have much intersection in their lives.

Rodman is the kind of person who doesn't take the initiative to contact his teammates to have fun together.

He is immersed in his own world, and there are access restrictions. Only crazy people like him can join his world.

Although Wilson has the best relationship with him in the team, after leaving the team, their social relationships and the circles they come in contact with are completely different.

It can be said that although these two people belong to the same class, they do not belong to the same world.

"Coach, I don't know what happened to Dennis." Wilson's eyes rolled around, "But I can call him...if he is willing to answer..."

Louie interrupted Wilson: "If he answers your call, tell him, don't come back, I don't want to see him again in my fucking life! He'd better disappear for good and I'll put him away when the season is over."

Deal, I hope he has a great time in Utah!"

Wilson believed Louis' anger was not feigned.

He also believes that Louis' determination to trade Rodman is genuine.

But he knows that Louis is now in a state where he cannot think calmly about the problem. Rodman has gone too far and has far exceeded his bottom line.

Maybe he'll change his mind when he calms down.

Although Rodman is a jerk, there is no doubt about his strength. As one of the best defensive players in the league, the Knicks' iron-blooded defense cannot do without his help.

When will Rodman return?

This problem has troubled Louis for half a month.

Finally, he faced reporters with a cold expression and said: "He will not return."

"What happened?"

"It's nothing." Louis said coldly, "He just won't return. We will look forward. No matter who is missing, the Knicks will still be the Knicks."

The season is long this year.

NBC has significantly increased its broadcast of the game.

In order to obtain more live broadcast opportunities, the league has lengthened the regular season schedule without changing the number of games.

The regular season will end at the end of April.

Now, there is still one week left until the end of the regular season.

Rodman has been missing for more than half a month.

His breakup with Madonna went from rumor to reality.

Just today, April 18, Madonna announced that she is back single.

She was so determined that she seemed to have forgotten that she had chosen to stand on her head after sex to increase her chances of winning the lottery in order to be pregnant with Rodman's child.

Now, those things are all gone.

What happened between her and Rodman will become a topic of conversation after dinner, but that's it.

"Now that Madonna has announced it, Dennis should be back soon, right?"

Tomjanovich has always been good at which pots he doesn't open and which pots he picks up.

"I now know why you were beaten by Kermit in the first place. You couldn't find the right time to enter." Louis complained unhappily.

Louis opened the deepest wound on Tomjanovich's body without practicing martial arts, and he was so angry that he cursed: "You bastard, you know nothing!"

"If I want to break up a fight, I will definitely not run from behind the perpetrator. I will run between the two parties in their sight and separate them. This is the correct way to break up the fight. Like you did If you run directly from behind others, who knows whether you are here to break up a fight or to engage in black boxing?"

"That's enough!" Tomjanovich stood up and said, "I've had enough of your lies!"

Louis said: "Ask Yuan Zheng to come to my office."

"I don't have time, I still have to lead the training!" Tomjanovich said angrily.

Louis didn't expect that there was someone he couldn't control in the Blue Palace.

The more I think about this, the more wrong it becomes.

"Rudy, you can either call the expedition to my office, or you can stay and chat with me until the evening. You don't need to take care of the training. Lao Mo and Tom (Thibodeau) will help you."

Chatting with Louis until the evening?

Today's opening remarks have already talked about how wrong his method of rescuing the siege was. If we continue the conversation, we will probably delve deeper into how he deserved to be punched in the brain, right?

Tomjanovich didn't want to look at the events from a different perspective after so many years.

"I'll call him right now!"
