0505: [The Duke returns]
The New York Knicks' next home opponent is the Chicago Bulls.
The last time the two teams met, Snoopy lost in a direct conversation with Derrick Rose, and was bluntly declared by basketball experts that he no longer deserves to be compared to Derrick Rose. In fact, it was the decisive match that saw the 2008 Double Yolk Rookie of the Year take two very different paths.
The Snoopy trade rumors were an explosive joke, as if everyone had seen the so-called Duke being swept away because of LeBron James's verbal promise.
Derrick Rose, on the other hand, has gone on a rampage over the past month, using his violent assault and flashy levers to create his personal logo, and his obvious traits and talent have earned him the title of the league's next superstar. Averaging an impeccable 26.8 points, 6.8 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game in January, he's already established as Chicago's new totem and far behind his rookie peers, even though they all look good.
Of course, no one can compare him to Snoopy anymore, and he is known as the No. 1 LeBron James.
Everyone can see a bright future in him, and even many people are beginning to sing the praises of Adidas' choice in the summer of '08, believing that they made a smart decision.
In reality, however, the sales of Derek Rose's signature shoes even lagged behind the Duke 1 in North America. As for the surrounding cultural shoes and trendy shoes, it is an all-round shame for the management of Adidas. For their group of businessmen, he didn't care so much about what Derrick Rose had accomplished on the field, and they wanted to see the earnings numbers on the financial statements that had risen on jet rockets.
However, for the Duke. His most important job now is to test his skills with a game, and he wants to see what he can do on the court with his left hand in mind.
As for the stupid and shouting commentators who slapped in the face, let the New York uniform team regret it without distractions and entered the transaction process without saying hello at all.
It's just a passing thing.
The United Airlines 747 from Los Angeles landed in New York at 8 p.m.
Built in 1942, JFK International Airport is one of the busiest, largest and most expensive airports in the world, with an astonishing number of passengers on a daily basis.
And tonight, the famous British footballer David Beckham was also revealed to be on the itinerary, and he will arrive in New York at 8 p.m. So, there are a large number of reporters piled up outside the airport, and they can't wait to know if it is true that Mr. Beckham was exposed by the British media as cheating on a female nanny and that his marriage was in an emergency. At the same time, they also want to know if the purpose of Beckham's trip is to win back Victoria's heart, the hot girl has recently been photographed staying in New York to relax, she constantly appears at fashion week, and her cold expression makes it easy to see the flashing marriage red light above her head!
The entertainment media is always concerned about these boring things.
And Duke Snoopy obviously didn't expect to encounter so much spotlight when he and Emma Stone appeared outside the airport, he just picked up Emma Stone's checked luggage out of gentlemanly demeanor because it was too heavy.
In his plan, he planned to call a car for Emma Stone and watch her leave before driving to the parking lot himself.
But now, the appearance of the Duke and the new Duchess Lady has sparked a craze for all the paparazzi reporters.
At this moment, they don't want to care about Beckham coming from the other side...... Go to the special British golden boy and girl, if you want to divorce, quickly tear up the marriage certificate, anyway, you so-called old British gentlemen love to do that kind of ugly thing of stealing chickens and dogs. Now, we have to welcome the Duke and the Duchess Lady.
The swarm of reporters carried a storm of questions: "Hey, Snoopy. Have you been in Los Angeles all the time? ”
"Lord Duke, will Emma Stone be your last girlfriend?"
"Lord Duke, can you talk about the connection between the injury on your left hand and Emma Stone?"
“……”
Snoopy was bombarded with all these terrible questions, and he almost ran to the other side with his arms around him, quickly reaching the parking lot, and then stuffing Emma Stone and her luggage into the bed of his bombastic pickup truck like garbage. Then it started quickly and ran away.
This sparked a disruption of the entire airport fast lane, with a flurry of cars following up.
It's like a repetition of the events in Los Angeles that night.
However, there is no Kobe Estate in New York.
Snoopy eventually drops Emma Stone into the Hilton Hotel before returning home on her own.
By the time he had finished his shower and lay down on his bed, he had already felt the bombardment of the New York media that followed.
At the same time, he also knew that no matter how he explained it, no one would believe that it was a coincidence.
Sure enough, the New York media the next day used a lot of reports to describe Snoopy's return. And this time, the criticism is even more intense.
The New York Times even questioned Snoopy's professionalism for the first time in its report: "Snoopy's appearance this time is regrettable, he took more than twice as long to recover from injury, and it was because of this Hollywood actress." But now, he actually took her back to New York hand in hand. This was a huge blow to the Knicks' morale and cast an unknown shadow over Snoopy's career for the rest of his career. ”
Compared to the gentle and cautious wording of the New York Times, other basketball media outlets are not so polite. Bill Simmons even went so far as to write in his column that Snoopy's last appearance in New York, his playboy behavior had made the New York uniforms unbearable.
Amid all the criticism, Snoopy walked into Madison Garden, where he will be featured in tonight's home game after being confirmed by the medical team.
Meanwhile, Donnie Walsh received a call from a close associate of James, who told Downey: "If no trade happens in Cleveland tonight, LeBron will make a verbal commitment to the Knicks." ”
Donnie Walsh was overjoyed by this remark, and after hanging up the phone, he rushed to James Dolan's office at an incredibly fast pace, and he had to tell his boss the exciting news. And on the way to the office, he has already decided on the next trading plan.
He doesn't plan to trade Snoopy to the Los Angeles Lakers, he wants to send Snoopy to the Denver Nuggets, he wants to eat Kenyon Martin and Nene all at once, and at the same time get Coloradans to accept Eddie Curry's contract and give them one more David Lee at most.
He thinks it's like Andrew Bynum, who needs the ball and even gets into trouble with Kobe Bryant. LeBron James will definitely prefer Kenyon Martin and Nene, these two are not particularly pleasant to partner with Carmelo Anthony, but if you add LeBron James, it must be a tiger with wings.
However, when he walked into James Dolan's office, Isaiah Thomas was already sitting there.
He tried very hard to beg James Dolan to believe in himself one last time, and while it sounded fantastical, he did confirm that Snoopy had a chance to reach the league's top 10 in the future.
James Dolan's expression softened slightly, but he hated the scandal that had happened last night. He thinks Snoopy has really gone too far this time, and his overstepping behavior in Los Angeles has led to the aggravation of his wrist injury, and even today, he still leads Emma Stone back to New York. For Dolan, this is a dandy provocation;
At this time, Donnie Walsh reported the message from LeBron's team in an excited tone.
This made James Dolan's eyes widen.
He seemed extremely interested and listened carefully to Donnie Walsh's trade analysis, and he was very happy with the Snoopy trade to the Denver Nuggets.
And at this point, Isaiah Thomas made an exaggerated move. He slammed his fist on the table, and he almost screamed, "Why don't you want to trust Snoopy? Why not give him a little time? He can be even better, and he represents a new direction for the future of basketball! ”
Donnie Walsh looked quiet.
He does not deny that Snoopy is very good, and he will definitely become stronger in the future than he is now. But what about that? He will never reach the position of LeBron James.
While he was trying to make some remarks, Isaiah Thomas pushed him out of his office.
Then, Donnie Walsh heard the occasional shouting coming from his office. He was able to capture words such as sex scandals, racial assault and so on.
Obviously, Isaiah Thomas had some negative press about James Dolan in his hands. Otherwise, you can't explain why a billionaire like Dolan tolerated Isaiah Thomas's various garbage deals with the team, and even paid him more than $10 million in sexual assault damages.
Donnie Walsh was called into the office half an hour later.
He wants Walsh to calm down again and give Snoopy three games. If he can make a splash, then at least don't make any more trades this season.
Donnie Walsh said incredulously, "But... This will hurt LeBron James! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Isaiah Thomas on the side was already roaring: "You stupid pig, your previous actions have already hurt Snoopy. You may even lose his trust permanently. From what I know about him, he is an Oriental man from the beginning, but now ...... You guys messed up everything! ”
Donnie Walsh shrugged his shoulders, he thought Thomas must be crazy, a guy who has been rumoring scandals with different female celebrities every weekend can be described from the beginning. At the same time, he finally understands why Isaiah Thomas would leave the team with so many bad garbage contracts.
The most important thing now, though, is that he's going to have to figure out how to deal with LeBron's team's rhetoric.
As for tonight's game, he didn't think Snoopy, who spent all his time in the concert of picking girls, would be able to steal the limelight in the hands of Derrick Rose, who was in full swing.
In fact, there are still a large number of people waiting to see Snoopy's jokes.
