D'Antoni got his fitness report the next morning as he prepared for tonight's back-to-back matches. When he took the test sheet, he didn't plan to let Dugg play in tonight's game. Although now the whole of New York City is looking forward to the kid's debut.

And, he also saw OJ Mayo's presumptuous remarks on TV: many people are expecting Snoopy to return the favor on the court.

The '08 No. 3 pick spent most of last summer in New York, and he and his team have maintained close ties with D'Antoni and even Donnie Walsh. At that time, the two sides had established a very good relationship, and D'Antoni even thought of initiating an upward trade in order to get OJ Mayo.

But in the end, I gave up for various reasons.

This became a regret in the heart of OJ Mayo. In fact, he was very happy with his order. But he was unhappy with the city of Minnesota that he had chosen for himself: It was a commercial desert.

He was then sent to Memphis, Tennessee. But there was no better place to be than Minnesota, and he still longed for the big city.

He and his team wanted to make a big difference in business.

However... Now the situation is that even though he gets close to twenty points almost every night. But when people talk about Rookie of the Year, they still don't put him on the spot, because Derrick Rose is so eye-catching that he's become the absolute leader of Chicago.

And OJ Mayo is still fighting with Rudy Gay for the ball, and even has the infamy of being a data brush.

Mayo, by contrast, believes that Snoopy is the real data brush.

However, Snoopy has been proud recently, not only stealing the limelight because of the scandal with a girl idol, but also successfully entering the NBA All-Star voting channel to become the vote king. Recently, it was traded to the world's number one city: New York.

With the release of the 2008 Sports Athlete Earnings Rankings, OJ Mayo's jealousy exploded when he looked at Snoopy, who ranked 29th in the global athlete rankings.

So, when he was asked by a New York reporter what he thought of Snoopy, the depression and jealousy in his heart quickly took over his cerebral cortex.

"It's a bit rude to say that, but he's clearly overrated. He doesn't deserve to come up with such a valuable three first-round picks, and he's only proven that he's a good functional player right now, even though he can put up a lot of pretty stats, like a triple-double or quadruple-double. But he doesn't really have control over the game at all, and he's never going to be able to take over the game at a crucial moment and then make the final decision. ”

"The Knicks need a potential player who can become a superstar, not a role player who has the potential to be a top-tier support."

O.J. Mayo gave him a lot of arguments in the interview. Taken together, his views can be distilled into this: Dugg doesn't have the ability to score, and he needs the help of his teammates. If the Heat didn't have a tall shooter group, without Beasley, without Dwyane Wade, he would be worthless.

In fact, this is the main point of discussion among basketball commentators. In their opinion, Dugg did play some highlight-reel games in Miami, but... The Knicks' staffing is very different from that of the Heat, and there aren't many long shooters here, and some are piles of fat in the restricted area. And also... A swingman who plays inefficiently with sticky balls, coupled with the style of not defending the whole team. Whether Snoopy can survive with the Knicks is indeed a big question mark.

"Uh-huh......."

D'Antoni stared at Dug's stats for ten minutes before telling his assistant coach: "Let Snoopy play center tonight." ”

"But... Will Zach be happy? ”

Before the assistant coach could finish his words, D'Antoni waved his hand: "Don't care about his words, he has been put on the trading table by me, if it weren't for the sudden return of Isaiah Thomas's bastard, he would have been wearing the jersey of the Los Angeles Clippers by now." ”

D'Antoni doesn't have the slightest bit of a smile on the problem players left over from the Thomas era, and in fact, he's tired of the smoky and foul-mouthed feeling in the dressing room.

At this time, Dugg was walking into the luxurious home locker room at Madison Garden for the first time with his bag on his back.

As soon as he entered, he saw Zach Randolph sitting on the carpet with the Knicks logo in the center of the field, concentrating on making hand-rolled cigarettes with a cigarette maker.

He then saw four young players, David Lee, Nate Robinson, Wilt Chandler and Gallinari, whispering in the corner of the dressing room about the upcoming road trip. And Eddie Curry, Jerome James, and Stephen Marbury, the three members of the suit, sat on the other side.

Marbury looked a little withdrawn, as if he didn't care about anything, and even when they met for the first time, it was clear that the former absolute leader of the Knicks was losing his grip. On the side, Eddie Curry and Jerome James talked about what happened to them in Atlanta last weekend, and the two even stood up and played backwards when they said they were excited. And Nate Robinson will scurry around at the right time, expressing his point and his posture. This little man looks like an active member of the whole team.

Compared with the players on both sides, Chris Duhon, Jamal Crawford, Jared Jeffries, Quentin Richardson and others sitting in the middle of the few positions look very proud.

As Dugg tried to greet his new teammates and introduce himself, Zach Randolph suddenly stood up: "Hey, rookie! A cigarette? ”

His words made everyone look to the center of the field.

Duge politely stretched out his hand to refuse, smiled and said, "No, thank you." I don't smoke. However, if you like to smoke, I can bring you some Chinese tobacco. ”

Snoopy's movements were very appropriate and appropriate, and he didn't have the slightest intention of dodging or resisting.

This made Randolph feel respected.

Normally, no one but the addict will take anything out of his hand that needs to be used for breath.

Although Duge didn't answer, he could feel that he really didn't smoke, and not the kind of attitude he had towards the flood beast.

"Of course, if there is good tobacco, I will definitely not refuse." Randolph grinned, and then he stood up: "I'd like to know your size, though. ”

Dugg didn't shy away from his tobacco, but when he said this, Duge subconsciously took a step back.

He knows that there are a lot of gay hidden in the NBA locker room, and he doesn't discriminate against these people.

But he didn't want to have any intimate contact with these people.

Watch as Duge retreats and dodges.

Randolph laughed, raising an eyebrow and saying, "I think you must have made a mistake." I'm just curious what size will be able to break the bridge of the nose of the Polish Gortat. ”

Duge breathed a sigh of relief. But when I think about it, my previous worries are indeed a bit superfluous, how can a man like Randolph, who is greasy, ugly, fat, and without a neat beard, be gay?

"Actually, mine is not small. We are the same kind of people. Randolph sat down next to Dugg, and he looked very welcoming.

He began to talk to Dugg about his genitals, his familiarity with female physiology and the mechanics of sexmaking: he forcibly classified himself as the most beloved man for women in the United States.

Dugg was embarrassed to hear and his scalp tingled.

Then, D'Antoni walked in.

He looked strangely at Randolph, who was chatting vigorously in front of Dug, and he didn't know how a street thug could talk and laugh with a UCLA student. But he calmly announced tonight's starting lineup: Snoopy, David Lee, Quentin Richardson, Jamal Crawford, Chris Duhon!

Dugg replaced the team's biggest name Zach Randolph as the starting center?

The message surprised the whole dressing room and thought it was ridiculous. One second Randolph was still chatting with Snoopy, and the next second he was snatched away by Snoopy.

Will he be furious?
