Chapter 60 [The Happiness Line Behind the Dark Clouds]

Less publicity does not mean that he will not be targeted, Yang Rui guessed correctly, he has entered the eyes of the management of several teams. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

As long as you show the ability to attract people, you don't have to worry about no one paying attention. The Knicks' offensive performance is too different from last season, and scouts from various teams will definitely dig into the reason, and Yang Rui's role in the Knicks cannot be concealed.

In addition to the Raptors, the vice president of the East, the management of the Nuggets, the league's bottom-to-bottom team, is also considering poaching Yang Rui as the head coach.

The Nuggets are a team with a fast break tradition, and in the 1981-82 season, the Nuggets averaged 126.5 points per game under the leadership of Inglish, breaking the 125.4 points record of the Philadelphia Warriors in 1962-63, setting a new NBA record, and for the first time in NBA history, they scored more than 100 points per game in a season.

In addition, they have averaged more than 120 points per game for five consecutive years, and their average points per game on the defensive end was also a league-high 122.3 points per game.

Regardless of the record, Denver fans of that era feasted their eyes and began to be dissatisfied with the current lifeless team. Today, the Nuggets have a magical 2-32 record, which is closer to the worst record in history than the Raptors.

Bulls management is also considering finding Yang Rui to replace "Zen Master" Phil Jackson.

It's not that manager Jerry Krause thinks Yang Rui can become a famous coach, but he knows that the Bulls are done next season and a rebuild is imperative.

There are tens of thousands of Chinese in Chicago, and Yang Rui's asking price must be much cheaper, which is an advantage.

Michael Jordan is already in talks with owner Rainsdorf about how to continue serving the Bulls after retirement, and does not plan to continue playing. Jordan's meaning was clear, give me equity and the management of the team, and let Klaus step aside. This made Klaus very unhappy, and he also had a conflict with Jordan.

Of course, Reinsdorf disagrees with Jordan's idea, running a team and ball skills are completely different things, no matter how high Qiao's martial arts are, he can't be the king of the Southern Academy.

Reinsdorf is convincing Jordan to stay and continue playing for the Bulls, helping the Bulls with their transition and rebuild, and then Jordan retires to become a minority shareholder of the Lakers and a team image advisor like "Magic."

The negotiations between the two sides broke up unhappily, and Jordan was not interested in playing on a bad team, he just wanted to compete for the championship. Coupled with Jordan's high salary, it is inevitable to cut his salary after the new labor negotiations in the summer, and if Jordan does not want to reduce his salary and wants to compete for the championship, he can only choose to join other teams or retire.

Pippen is definitely going to be sent away, and Rodman's contract has expired, so the Bulls rebuilding without stars needs a gimmick, and Yang Rui is a good choice to attract the attention of fans as a transitional head coach.

The Warriors and Kings have no chance to impact the playoffs, and they are also considering rebuilding, and Yang Rui is the focus of investigation. As long as the Knicks play well in the playoffs, he will definitely be the head coach of a team next season.

On January 11, the Knicks relied on a stubborn defense at home to reverse a 13-point deficit in the final quarter and beat the strong team SuperSonics 93-91.

The supersonic starters pressed the Knicks to play, and the inside line Weinbeck and Detreve-Schramf can shoot, and the 206CM tall and 97-kilogram Detreff's range has reached outside the three-point line, with a three-point shooting rate of 41.5%, super mobility, and is suitable for playing small-ball tactics.

The supersonic two swingmen have accurate three-point points and can open up space, and Payton's blocking and dismantling is a misplaced opportunity to break through sharply.

The Knicks won in the depth of the roster, Chris Childes also returned, there were no injuries on the team, and the bench offense SuperSonics could not withstand it, and the SuperSonics could not break the iron-clad defense built by Ben Wallace and Oakley.

It was a key win, as the Knicks retained their top spot in the league and the SuperSonics trailed the Lakers by one spot at 29-7.

After that, the Knicks had a lighter schedule, with most of the opponents being weak teams and no more gutter overturns, including big away wins over the Raptors and Celtics.

On January 29, Yang Rui spent the New Year in the United States, without any entertainment activities, and trained and played games with the team as usual.

The Knicks defeated the Bucks 122-115 at home, completing revenge and dedicating fans to a wonderful offensive battle.

"Big Dog" Robinson is still sharp, with 39 points and 4 rebounds to blow up Bowen and Mills.

Ewing had a terrible performance, playing 31 minutes and scoring only 14 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists. Thankfully, Houston and Starks stepped up and scored 26 and 32 points, respectively, to lead the team to victory.

Starks shot 9-of-12 from three-point range, unstoppable, and worthy of being a super pump. In his normal state, he is a role player, and once he smokes it, he can't stop it.

The Knicks lead the league, Ewing was voted the best player in the East in January with his excellent record and stable statistics, and Ewing is also ranked first ahead of Jordan in the MVP rankings.

The Bulls have a record of 31 wins and 15 losses, and they have lost 10 more games on the premise of playing 3 more games than the Knicks.

The good news for the Bulls is that Pippen is finally back in average form, losing 87-112 to the Lakers on Feb. 1, with Pippen scoring just 13 points. On the side of the Lakers, 4 people scored 20+.

On the same day, the Knicks defeated the Heat 95-83 at home.

When the Knicks are all pulling out of the perimeter and not entering the restricted area to fight for muscles, super defensive player Mourning is not so effective, and the Knicks' strategy is to bypass him and shoot and focus on Tim Hardaway, who is 183cm tall.

Veteran scoring guard Dan Mariel, who played in the Finals with the Suns, is also not as good as before.

On February 3, the Knicks defeated the Bucks on the road, and then easily defeated Garnett and the Timberwolves without Gugliotta back-to-back, ushering in the New York All-Star Weekend with a wave of 13 consecutive wins.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and it was finally time to take a break.

Yang Rui followed the training, flew away to play games, and experienced the hardships of professional players, coaching is relatively easy, and he also feels very tired when flying everywhere, and the happiest thing is to sleep lazy.

The players were hot and cold during training, and they were prone to colds, but fortunately it did not affect their results.

The players who play when they have a cold are strong, but the cameras can't capture them, and if they take a clear picture of Johnson and Starks turning around and throwing snot in the opponent's face, the fans will definitely be drunk.

Yang Rui also noticed that many players really have deformed toes.

Everyone knows that the NBA is the temple of basketball, and they think that if they play casually, they can earn a lot of money and attract countless fans. tend to overlook the hardships behind them.

What can be seen is the injury on the field, and what cannot be seen is even more admirable.

Players practice breakouts, jump shots, toes with all kinds of changes and gravity, and their toes are different from normal people, which may be the price to pay for a professional player's great success.

Yang Rui also followed the practice, the intensity was relatively low, and his figure was much better than when he was first reborn.

He's developed beautiful muscles, and when the season is over, he'll be able to go to the beach to show off the mermaid line.
