My teammate in the NBA is Nash

Chapter 155 Moment of Destiny! The 1997 No. 34 lottery belongs to? ? ([-], asking for a monthly ticket)

"Dennis, are you really not going back to play?"

hawaii.

on the beach.

The beautiful blonde girl lay in Rodman's arms and lit a cigar for him: "Aren't you going to play in the playoffs?"

"Playing? Why should I go back to playing?"

Rodman, who had just finished the [-]V[-], took a puff on his cigar: "To get an extra ring for Scottie Pippen?"

Go back and help the Bulls win and win a championship?
Give that guy Pippen an extra ring?
Think beautiful!

"Without me, they couldn't beat the New York Knicks!"

"They have nothing to do with that big guy Su Han!"

As Dennis Rodman said.

The camera went from Eighteen X in Hawaii to Madison Square Garden in New York.

Game [-] of the Eastern Conference finals between the Chicago Bulls and the New York Knicks.

As the defending champion last season, the Chicago Bulls fully released their offensive firepower output.

Michael Jordan incarnated as Illidan Stormrage, wielding the Warglaive of Azzinoth in his hand.

He scored [-] points at halftime.

The Bulls have the highest score in the team and the second highest score in the game!
Even Scottie Pippen is bottoming out today.

Unlike the last game, Pi Erye scored [-] points and [-] assists in the half, perfectly taking on the responsibility of the team's second leader.

Regrettably.

The problem for the Bulls today is not the offensive end.

It's on the defensive end!
Without Dennis Rodman, the Bulls' inside line was blasted by Su Han from the beginning to the end of the game.

In the words of the on-site commentator:

You, Bill Wennington, are here to guard against Su Han.

Can it be prevented?

Can't prevent it!
You don't have the ability to be spicy, do you know?

This round was hit by Su Han and was dunked by Su Han, and the next round was ignored by Su Han.

Then it was marked as [-]+[-], and then it was marked as [-]+[-]!

If the defense continues like this, Su Han will go for [-] points in the first half!
Another commentator said: On the other hand, the Bulls are also the earliest team preparing for G[-]. ． ．

And his words were directly interrupted by the opposite colleague:

G[-] and G[-] were beaten into this picture by Su Han.

How do you guarantee that G[-] can win at home?

I advise you to quickly invite Rodman back.

Tell me, Dennis Rodman interferes with Su Han on the defensive end, and the effect is still somewhat.

As a result, I was sprayed by others and went to Hawaii for vacation.

Now that the Bulls are being beaten up by Su Han on the inside, tell me how to explain it?

Face. ． ．No more faces!
Although the original words of the two commentators are not the case.

But that's roughly what it means.

"Bill, can you be tougher?"

Halftime is over.

Chicago Bulls locker room.

Zen master Phil Jackson sent a meal to the team's rotation insider Bill Wennington.

Make sense.

You rarely see Zen master berating his players in the locker room.

He is generally very Buddhist.

But the Buddhist system is based on the fact that the team has no problems.

Now is clearly not that time.

The Chicago Bulls are in big trouble.

The team is on the brink of collapse.

Phil Jackson had to find a scapegoat to lash out, to make an example to others!
For the sudden wave of reprimands from the team coach.

Bill Wennington wanted to reply:
Why are you yelling so loudly!
But he didn't have the qualifications, and he didn't have the guts to speak back.

Phil Jackson's output in the locker room seems to have some effect.

The second half of the game begins.

The Chicago Bulls played a wave of counterattack momentum.

The double-digit score difference was instantly approached to single digits.

But the good times didn't last long.

Old Nelson decisively applied for a timeout, changing the team's offensive deployment.

Pause back.

The Knicks strengthened Su Han's offensive tactics.

Luke Longley + Tony Kukoc complained again and again.

The Knicks opened up the point difference to double digits again, and it was difficult for the Bulls to close the score again.

finally.

At Madison Gardens.

The New York Knicks beat the Bulls by [-] points by virtue of Su Han's second consecutive [-]+[-] large double-double.

The big score between the two sides came to [-]:[-]!
"Michael Jordan and his Chicago Bulls lost another conference final!"

"They lost two consecutive games to their opponents by double digits, and after the two games, Michael Jordan averaged [-]+ points per game!"

This wave, this wave is really Jordan trying his best!
However, there is a Gundam on the opposite side!
"Back home, the Chicago Bulls must first get Dennis Rodman back."

"Without Dennis, the defending champion is likely to be swept out by the New York Knicks!"

After the game is over.

The two commentators were summing up after the game.

Nor are they alarmist.

But judging from the situation shown by G[-]:

If the Bulls can't get Rodman back in the follow-up games, this round of the series will be explained here!
"Regarding Dennis's stay in Hawaii, this is a vacation specially approved by the team management for him."

Post-match interview session.

With a smile on his face, Phil Jackson responded to the tricky questions of the reporters in front of him: "You know, at this stage of the playoffs, the players are under a lot of pressure."

"Not just Dennis, including all our players today, and even the opponent's players, I believe everyone is under a lot of pressure."

"If possible, I even hope to give the whole team a vacation~"

Zen master's speaking skills are absolutely full.

on the one hand.

He was justifying Rodman's vacation to Hawaii.

On the other hand, it also found a good reason for the team's loss today.

Phil Jackson even includes the Knicks players, so how can you find the thorn in his words?

Can't find any faults at all!

But Zen Master can handle difficult reporters on his own.

But still can't find a way to reverse the situation.

The only X factor that can change the situation right now may be the return of Rodman to the game.

"I'm going to Hawaii."

In the Bulls locker room.

After listening to Phil Jackson's explanation.

Michael Jordan finally said: "I'm going to bring Dennis back to Chicago and win the series."

There are his words.

The big stone hanging in Zen master's heart finally fell to the ground.

May [-], US time.

Just before Jordan flew to Hawaii.

The day the Houston Rockets and the Utah Jazz G[-] are about to play.

The eyes of the world briefly shifted from the playoff team to the Hilton Hotel in New York.

why?
the reason is simple.

Just today.

NBA officials will routinely hold the [-] draft lottery ceremony!

Since there were only [-] teams in the NBA in [-], plus the Boston Celtics had two first-round picks.

So today there should have been [-] lottery representatives, but only [-] of them gathered here.

They are all waiting for the little ball that decides the fate of their respective teams, revealing the final fate of the team!

some of.

The Boston Celtics are undoubtedly the most watched team.

Because it was this morning.

The Celtics officially announced a news through the local media in Boston:
Cardinal Auerbach officially announced his resignation!
He will resign from all positions related to the Celtics.

Auerbach's move caused an uproar across the United States.

Before the draft lottery, before the draft.

As the godfather of the Celtics, Auerbach actually resigned voluntarily?

Resign at this point in time?
I really don't understand!
In fact.

This is the game between Auerbach and David Stern.

The Cardinal chose to use his resignation to gamble that the NBA will give the Celtics the No. [-] pick!
After experiencing the lesson of missing Su Han in [-].

This is the ultimate plan summed up by Auerbach!
Since David Stern is afraid of me, Auerbach is holding the No. [-] lottery.

Then I simply resign!

Since then, there is only the legend of Auerbach in the arena, and there is no more cardinal!
The person who came to Hilton today to take charge of the lottery is Auerbach's chosen successor - Rick Pitino.

Many media said:

Pitino is the last fortune left by Auerbach to the Celtics!

But Rick Pitino said in an interview before the lottery ceremony:

"The team's two first-round picks in [-] are the last wealth left by the Cardinal to the Celtics."

As for what can these two wealth become?
That may depend on whether the NBA management is a proper person or not!
It is worth mentioning that.

For the San Antonio Spurs, Greg BBwich was also present in person.

In the middle of the season, the team coach was directly fired, and BB Veitch, who went off the field himself, also wanted to personally draw the No. [-] lottery for the San Antonio Spurs!

Tim Duncan + David Robinson, who took a season off.

The Spurs directly have infinite light, is there any!
[-]ers general manager John Davis is a little troubled.

The team formed an outside double-gun lineup of Stephen Marbury + Jerry Stackhouse last season.

But the results are really not ideal.

This year's lottery ceremony, I should also miss the number one lottery.

When the time comes to use the first-round pick + Marbury package deal, or use the first-round pick + Stackhouse package deal?
This is a problem!

most annoying.

Naturally, the NBA president David Stern is still in the background!
His original plan was to give the Celtics the No. [-] pick.

To prevent the No. [-] pick, the team chose Keith Van Horn against the sky, and the Celtics took Duncan with the No. [-] pick.

As a result, the Celtics came directly to a ruthless one!
Auerbach announced his resignation directly in the morning! ?

How cruel!
Think about it.

David Stern finally made his choice.

Punctual.

The scene of the lottery ceremony.

The lottery representatives of each team are ready.

The [-] lottery meeting was officially launched!

Because the Toronto Raptors are different from the original timeline, they missed the playoffs.

With Ewing, they reached the playoffs.

So the Raptors' original lottery pick was outside the lottery area.

The [-]th pick in the first round was given to the Dallas Mavericks differently from the original timeline.

The [-]th pick in the first round was also given to the Cleveland Cavaliers in a different timeline.

[-]th pick: Pacers; [-]th pick: Kings;
[-]th pick: Bucks.

Starting with the eighth pick, it is exactly the same as the original timeline: Golden State Warriors.

Seventh pick: New Jersey Nets!

This team, which was originally regarded by the media as the most popular team to win the No. [-] pick in an upset, was still not in the eyes of Stern after all.

Tim Duncan VS Suhan's New York derby is indeed a good stunt.

But the location of the New Jersey Nets is too stretched.

This New York Derby looks a bit shabby.

The sixth pick, the Boston Celtics' two first-round picks, one of which was announced at this moment.

The camera is on Rick Pitino, still with a smirk on his face.

It's just one of the two first-round picks, and I still have another pick!
The fifth pick belongs to the Denver Nuggets.

Denver was still tactically abandoned by the NBA management without any suspense.

The fourth pick belongs to the Vancouver Grizzlies.

How miserable is the Grizzly?
Look at their record for the last two consecutive years in the league, but they have not had the top three picks for two consecutive years, you can see one or two!

The draw ceremony is here.

The remaining three teams are:

San Antonio Spurs, Philadelphia [-]ers, and Boston Celtics!

Su Han, who watched the live broadcast of the lottery in front of the TV, was also very surprised.

Is everything going to be the same as the original timeline?
Duncan still has to go to the Spurs?

In the spotlight.

The fate ball representing the third pick rolled out——

Boston Celtics!
Even Auerbach announced his resignation.

The NBA management is still afraid of his green blood in the league.

Don't be afraid of [-], just be afraid of what happens.

Giving the Celtics the No. [-] pick is the best solution to prevent any accidents!
The broadcast camera was once again aimed at Rick Pitino.

The new coach of the Green Army hand-picked by Auerbach still had a smirk on his face.

if not?
Do you want me to cry?

Second overall.

[-]ers general manager John Davis had sweaty palms, while Spurs coach BB Veitch remained calm.

next moment.

The results are revealed.

The second overall pick in [-] belongs to the San Antonio Spurs!

"YEAH!!!"

The final result is revealed.

The Spurs won the No. [-] pick, which means that the [-]ers won the No. [-] pick!
John Davis jumped up from his seat excitedly!

This is the No. [-] pick in [-]!
This shit is Tim Duncan! !

Wuhu, take off! !

Just now John Davis was still struggling:
Is it the first-round pick + Marbury sent to the trade, or Stackhouse + the first-round pick to trade.

Now that the first round pick is No. [-], is there still a problem?
Marbury + Stackhouse can both be sent away!

Just build a team around Tim Duncan and you're done!

the other side.

BB Vitch, who ended up doing poorly in person and still missed the No. [-] lottery, was directly popular.

David Stern eventually abandoned the Spurs in the small ball market.

The draw ceremony is over.

Rick Pitino left the venue immediately and called Auerbach.

Cardinal's voice on the phone sounded much older.

But the godfather of the Celtics still has a backup.

Allen Iverson is a cornerstone player worth building around.

The No. [-] and No. [-] picks in the hands of the Celtics can be fully utilized to build a system around AI.

Things are really bad, but not as bad as imagined!

at the same time.

hawaii.

A presidential suite somewhere.

Dennis Rodman, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by the flying Michael Jordan:
"Dennis, it's time to go back and win."
