For Josh Jackson, the Knicks' new shooting coach, Snoopy saw the situation well back when he broke up with Zach Randolph, and he firmly believed that Snoopy would be the centerpiece of the future. And when asked by management, he told everyone including Donnie Walsh in no uncertain terms: "Snoopy's shooting is definitely not going to be a burden for his entire career." ”

"He's got a perfect shot. Before he had his feet off the ground, I thought his shooting was among the best in the league. ”

In time, he will become a god pitcher. Imagine being a rebounder with the perfect point guard mindset, a master ball-handling dribble, and a coolie center under the basket suddenly has the ability to shoot...... There's no reason why he shouldn't be the absolute core of this team for the next decade. ”

"At the moment, Zach Randolph is even better. But what about five years from now? ”

Josh Jackson watched Snoopy and Zach Randolph walk to the sidelines, and he never regretted what he had said about management. Especially when Snoopy showed the league's first-class straight-line acceleration ability in the Los Angeles game, he firmly believed that his statement was a contribution to the Knicks' brilliant future.

So, he turned his head and looked at Snoopy and Zach Randolph sitting side by side on the bench, and he already understood that it wouldn't be long... Zach would have donned the jerseys of the other teams. The only difference is: how will he leave New York?

"Snoopy, our friendship has always existed, hasn't it?" The 'Fortune' brand never adds paprika to their peanut butter, just like our relationship. All our conflicts are only on the pitch, and we can still maintain a very friendly relationship off the pitch. And I think with your wits you will be able to reconcile the differences on the field. ”

Charles Barkley tried to put his right hand on Snoopy's shoulder, but he was a little worried about being rejected.

He was a little timid, and he didn't know when he had lost his psychological advantage over Snoopy...... Now he didn't dare to think of Snoopy as a rookie.

His agent team has had a careful discussion with him, and he is already aware of his current passive status. With Snoopy's current momentum, it is impossible for him to become the top name in New York anymore, and he will inevitably make sacrifices on the ball on the tactical end. Because if you continue like this, whether you sit on the bench or completely tear your face, the prestige you have accumulated will be ruined.

Zach Randolph is still synonymous with cancer. Coupled with the terrible average per game data this season, once a trade occurs, it is very likely that it will be sent to some unpopular and remote small ball market.

Randolph didn't want to do that at all, so he took the initiative to find Snoopy. He hoped to reconcile with Snoopy.

Dugg reached out and put his hand on his shoulder: "Of course, man, we've always been friends. ”

This sentence made Zach breathe a sigh of relief.

But Snoopy's second sentence lifted his breath again. "But, as a friend, I have to be honest with you, I don't want to be teammates with you anymore."

He stared at Dug with wide eyes, unsure if Snoopy was joking to show off his unique oriental humor or if he was serious about a showdown with himself.

"You know, I've been working on it before. But I never got a reciprocal response. So I made this decision before the last game. ”

Dugg's tone was calm, but his hand was still on Randolph's shoulder.

Compared to Duge's emotional tranquility, Zach Randolph's emotions gradually spiraled out of control. He slapped Duge's hand open: "Listen! Snoopy!! I'm not here to wagging my tail at you right now, I just don't want to completely tear the countertop upside down. Now, I'm still the number one star in the team, I'm still the best attacker......"

Before he could finish his sentence, Dugg stood up and walked to the court. And calmly told him the facts: "Zach, you should know better than me what kind of situation you are facing now. There are really only two paths in front of you: either leave the Knicks as an All-Star or be sold as a team cancer. ”

"Remember, we're still friends. The fallacy that the six-foot girl you're hyping up in the locker room is not the same depth as the five-foot girl still gives me some joy at some point. So, the promise to make you an All-Star is still in effect, provided that... You can get back to the ring. ”

With that, Dugg walked to the court and continued to hone his three-pointers.

He is not deliberately pursuing the jump shot now, but shooting on the spot in a calm state, slowly feeling the rhythm of shooting, learning from the experience, and improving the shooting touch.

When Dugg returned to the locker room after shooting drill, Zach Randolph left again. The dressing room seemed to get used to his absence, with Marbury pulling his first protégé, Kirksinrich, to talk about 'a red heart, ready with both hands,' while Milicic and Eddie Curry joined in, one black, one white, one fat and one thin, happily discussing the manual of the skinny female model. Nate Robinson was discussing boxing with James Johnson, and Shaun Livingston was in the corner with Gallinari and Wesley Matthews, who were hard-working and down-to-earth representatives.

In contrast, Jeffries was completely isolated. He sat in his place, and only David Lee occasionally said a few words to him. The other players no longer take his presence seriously.

Snoopy walked to the centre of the dressing room after entering the locker room to change into new boots and said some pre-match mobilization words. Then Herb Williams and Stan Van Gundy were invited out to explain the tactics to the players.

The Knicks don't actually have much interest in the Milwaukee Bucks, and the difference in strength between the two is incomparable.

But now there's a special air in the locker room, and everyone wants to meet the youngest 55-point man in history, Brandon Jennings, who scored 55 points in Oakland five days ago.

The skinny-looking little point guard is now considered a leader in the Class of '09, especially after Blake Griffin's season reimbursement. On the rookie list is his battle with Kings rookie Evans!

Even... Recently, a lot of media has been hyping Jennings as the next Iverson. Some commentators even gave a special reason: B is followed by I, and J is followed by I. This shows that after AI, it is BJ. (BJ: Abbreviated for Brandon Jennings.) ）

In fact, Dugg received a call from Stephen Curry after that game.

Curry was indignant on the phone, believing that Brandon Jennings wasn't any stronger than himself, and that if it weren't for his wrist injury that day, he would definitely have been able to score 50 points ahead of him if Monta Ellis also reduced his shots.

On this point, Dugg is convinced.

Curry's guy impressed him with his shooting and... Jennings and Curry are in a position to match, and neither is defending. Coupled with Monta Ellis, it's basically a three-person point grabbing battle!

Coming out of the locker room, Duge stopped in the players' aisle, where a group of schoolchildren gathered and shouted.

The Duke had always been a very friendly man to children, and he walked over to sign autographs and said many words of encouragement to cheer them on.

"Hey, Snoopy. Are you going to go head-to-head with me tonight? An abrupt voice sounded from behind him, and rookie Jennings had a smile on his face: "I didn't mean to offend you, but I do want to go one-on-one with you." ”

Dugg shrugged his shoulders, he didn't want to bother with such a boring 'provocation'.

However, the children behind him immediately clenched their fists one by one and grinned at Jennings.

"Shred him!"

"Long live the Duke!"

"As a superhero, when the villain appears, you should immediately turn on your superpowers, and don't wait until the end to explode like Iron Man..."

“……”

The children cheered the Duke on in their own way.

They were very emotional. This forced Duke Snoopy to turn around and 'reassure' them: "All right, lads. I'm going to kick him in the ass hard on the pitch. However, in return, you must receive at least two commendations in the study manual for the first semester of this year. ”

"No problem!"

Almost everyone is replying loudly.

Then the Duke turned around, and he spread his palm to the rookie, who had just become the youngest Mr. 55, "Okay, you got this opportunity." ”

The game starts at seven o'clock in the evening.

Since the Los Angeles game, not many fans have cared about why Zach Randolph didn't show up in the starting lineup. In fact, the old commentator of the stadium simply told the fans that Zach Randolph would miss the game due to food poisoning.

This explanation is not very credible, but no one will speculate on it. For current Knicks fans, if they had to choose between Zach Randolph and Snoopy, 90 percent of the votes would be thrown into the count box with the Duke's name written on it.

In fact, at this very moment, Zach Randolph was sitting in Donnie Walsh's office.

After ten minutes of rambling elaboration, the office fell silent.

Although he emotionally talked about how much credit he had made for the Knicks, how outstanding his strength was, and how great chemistry he could bring to the Knicks.

But... Donnie Walsh was still sitting there peacefully.

Half a ring, when the TV picture of Milicic jumping on the halfway line and slapping the basketball to Kirksin Ridge.

He spoke slowly, "Why don't you take Snoopy's suggestion?" Actually, you don't have as much of an impact on the team right now as you thought you would, especially after Snoopy's breakthrough ability shone in Los Angeles. ”

"I think if you can make the All-Star Game before the trade window opens, it's not just good for you, it's good for the team. You can have more options instead of being sent to a city you don't like. And for the team, the higher the value of your trade, the more valuable the players we can trade! ”

Donnie Walsh said calmly.

However, Zach Randolph gritted his teeth and told Donnie: "The person who gets the most benefit from doing this is Snoopy, right?" ”

Donnie did not deny that after Zach Randolph left, the Knicks would completely become the Duke's private army.

Now, it's the way to go!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Snoopy, who was pictured on the TV screen, hit three in a row and got a chance to single Jennings in the elbow zone. Poor Jennings was knocked straight over on the third hit, and then Snoopy turned with ease...... Swish!

He hit the spot and shot!

The Milwaukees' loose defense didn't have any substantial impact on him.

"Think about it." Donnie Walsh leaned back, and the TV was filled with a deafening sound from Madison Garden: Duke! Duke！ Duke！

Zach Randolph stood up: "You will definitely regret helping Snoopy solve me today." ”

"Don't forget how Isaiah Thomas and Dande Anthony viciously competed with each other and were then broken by Snoopy. And don't forget how I helped him in the first place, and how I'm isolated now. ”

Randolph dropped the sentence and left angrily.

Donnie Walsh shrugged his shoulders, though his heart moved slightly, raising his vigilance. Soon, however, he dismissed Randolph as to blame.

He started everything, and in the offseason, Snoopy was against trading Randolph. If Randolph hadn't started that series of moves at the start of the season, Snoopy wouldn't have been in a position to do so. Moreover, Snoopy still made a plan to win all three parties in this situation. He was willing to help Randolph leave New York as an All-Star.

This is completely abandoning the concept of zero-sum game thinking, and he is a real solution that makes it win-win for all parties.

Randolph, Snoopy and the Knicks have all benefited from this.

"The wisdom of the Chinese is really amazing."

Donnie Walsh sighed.

From the bottom of his heart, he admires Snoopy's handling methods: he has skills, a mind and a true king mentality.
