The Rest, Only Noise
Chapter 912: Wedding and funeral
Chapter nine hundred and twelve weddings and funerals
After Thanksgiving, there was a new phenomenon within the Knicks.
The scoring competition between Ewing and Wilson has slowed.
Because Wilson has an obvious advantage, he ranks first in the team with an advantage of 27 points per game, and Ewing ranks second with 22 points per game.
Ewing stopped talking about scoring titles.
"Scoring doesn't reflect my leadership." Ewing put it another way, "Bill Russell is not a scorer. My goal is to be the ultimate winner like Russell. If I only think about scoring, Nick Sri Lanka will not have five consecutive championships."
It's nice to say, but it's clearly a pretext for himself knowing that he can't compete with Wilson.
However, there are definitely people who want to believe it.
Ewing took the initiative to give up the fight, which is a good thing for the Knicks.
However, Rodman will still miss the team's training every once in a while, so Louis completely removed his starting qualification and let Kemp officially start.
If Rodman dared to object, Louie would say, "Why the **** are you not even coming to practice?"
However, Rodman has no objection.
Rodman and Louie, along with the rest of the team, seemed to have reached some sort of tacit understanding.
That is the price of losing the starting lineup in exchange for the freedom to miss training at every turn.
As a substitute at the 4th position, Rodman averaged 5 points, 14 rebounds and 2 blocks per game. He still has a defensive level, but his mind is no longer as focused on the court as in the past.
Rodman was a demon to let Camp benefit. Originally, Louie's plan was to let him continue to be a substitute, but now, he has settled down as a starter.
Rodman doesn't care about losing the starter at all. As long as he can be allowed to "be himself" off the court, it doesn't matter whether he starts or not, he is still in New York anyway.
Such a tacit understanding deviated from Louis' original intention.
Even if the other players agreed with Rodman, Louie, as the head coach, clearly felt his grip on the team was diminishing.
He can't get the Rodman prodigal back because he doesn't even care about starting.
Rodman's performance has not been affected off the court. He is still one of the best power forwards in the league, but his mind is not on the court.
He doesn't care about the status of the team, and his personal performance has not declined. What else can Louis do to him?
Persuade him to be a good person?
Gradually, Louis de-emphasized "discipline" and his key word became "unity."
And that still seems like a luxury.
Chris Jackson has withstood the pressure and stood his ground admirably during the worst of times.
At the end of November, CJ faced the Pistons and scored a season-high 40 points.
Wilson hugged him fiercely after the game: "Brother, I'm so proud of you."
That night, Louie poured a basin of cold water on CJ's body, hoping that he wouldn't get too hot.
At the time, CJ seemed to be doing fine.
"Portland and Miami are no match for us if we all play like him."
"That's right, we're going to follow CJ's example!" Ewing took Louis' words like a leader.
Wilson didn't interject, always standing by and watching as Ewing declared his dominion.
CJ looked happy, and that was when the Knicks were at their most harmonious this season.
The only person unhappy is John Stockton, who is destined to be in opposition to CJ, both for public and private.
But CJ has never raised any objection to the starting lineup, and Louis has not changed his plan to start at No. 1, so Stockton's dissatisfaction is only in his heart.
"CJ, do you want to go for a drink?"
That night, Ewing took the initiative to court Jackson.
Ewing doesn't want to admit it, but it does feel good to play with CJ.
CJ's shooting threat is too great. As long as he holds the ball, most of the opponent's defensive attention is on him. If he or other insiders go to the pick-and-roll for him, it can definitely cause a disturbance on the opponent's defensive line.
This situation is Ewing's favorite.
There is a famous line in Game of Thrones: Chaos is a ladder.
Chaos is both a disaster and an opportunity for the attackers.
If it's a one-sided mess on the defensive side, all the better.
The more chaotic, the easier it is to profit from chaos.
Ewing's offer was rejected by Jackson.
"Patrick, your private life is so messed up, if you're as faithful to your faith as I am, maybe you'll go a step further like Hakim." CJ tried to teach Ewing to be a better big man.
This kind of thing, even Louis can't do it, why should he?
Ewing's face turned ugly, CJ still didn't intend to stop: "Before he believed in God, he was far inferior to you, but now, his soul has found a home, so he is no longer irritable and angry, he can cover up his emotions, and he Ryder Drexler works well..."
"enough!"
Ewing said angrily.
"I don't need to learn from Hakeem, he doesn't have a champion and my ring fits on a hand! As for Drexler? That stupid **** can't even work hand in hand with Michael, Hakeem gets along well with him Just because they all came out of the University of Houston, they were not my opponents in college, and they are not even now, you gave a bad example!"
CJ doesn't seem to agree with what Ewing said, but he doesn't move.
Ewing was the only one who looked angry.
CJ was intrigued by the discussion, saying, "Michael was not a good guy, that's why Clyde couldn't work with him."
"So what? Fatboy can work with him, Isiah can work with him, why only Drexler can't work with him? Because he's jealous of Michael, he's jealous that Michael always gets more compliments and attention , he's jealous that Michael has everything!"
CJ smiled, and the mustache on his upper lip was shaking with pride: "It sounds like Michael and Clyde are like you and Benj."
Wilson, who was just joining in the fun, didn't expect to be mentioned.
He looked over.
"What did you say?" Ewing has lost his affection for CJ.
"Clyde is jealous of Michael, just like you are jealous of Benj, why are you always pretending you're not jealous of Benj, Patrick?"
Ewing's anger gradually became uncontrollable: "You **** say it again!"
"You said that Clyde couldn't work well with Michael. In fact, you and Benj didn't work well either. Don't you realize that Benj has been letting you go? The Knicks can have five championships, and you are an important part. Coach Lu is the core of this team, and Benj is a big part of that, and if he was Michael, the Knicks would have been torn apart. Patrick, you should be thankful to have Benj as a teammate.”
Ewing stares hard at CJ.
He wanted to punch the **** Mlm.
But he can't because CJ is just discussing a **** stupid question with him.
"Oh, how can I say this kind of thing, I feel that being able to be teammates with you is the luckiest thing in my life."
Yu Tiancan didn't know if it was a thick line, or if he saw that the atmosphere was not right~www.wuxiaspot.com~ took the initiative to break the deadlock.
"I don't want to start from scratch on a broken team like Shaq!"
Ewing reconfirmed one thing tonight.
He sneered, "Chris, I really am not the same as you!"
Just as he always called Wilson "Benjamin," not using a nickname to match it was a delineation.
After all, Ewing left.
Louis watched the whole thing.
Chris Jackson said what he always wanted to say but couldn't, because Ewing's self-esteem was too strong, and a little too strong and sensitive, he didn't admit that he was jealous of Benj, he thought that the reason for the difference between the two of them was that The media didn't like him.
Jackson spoke the truth and then lost Ewing's friendship, making it even more difficult for him to stay on the team.
What is he thinking?
Louie didn't know, but he could see a simple smile on Jackson's face, and he felt joy from the bottom of his heart as if he had discovered something.
"CJ, you're talking too much," Wilson said.
"Benj, don't call me CJ," the eccentric laughed, "I'm not me anymore, CJ is dead, but a sober and free Mlm is reborn, celebrate for me, bro, today is my new birth day."
After speaking, he walked out of the locker room.
Neither Wilson nor the others could understand.
Louie felt inexplicable, obviously played a wonderful game, and obviously the atmosphere in the locker room could be improved, but Chris Jackson and Ewing's verbal dispute made the happy event.
Soon, Louie and the others will realize the meaning of CJ's words.
Chris Jackson literally "died" on the last day of November 1992.
