NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Chapter 118 Is Your Kid A Robber?

The final game of the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Kongbu is facing a big enemy, and the Heat have been pushed to the edge of the cliff. It is hard to guarantee that they will not do some operations to pull the Raptors into the water.

If you are having a hard time, then everyone should not be having a good time. Riley can definitely do this kind of thing.

"Guys, it's going to be intense tonight."

"I dare not tell others, at least PJ Brown will definitely make a move."

"Especially in the fourth quarter, if we have a huge lead, the Heat will definitely jump the wall."

"Restraint, restraint, and more restraint, we are only one bull away from the championship, we must not lose the chain at this time."

"In the fourth quarter, I will let Mahon play. Once something happens, others are not allowed to be impulsive."

Kongbu is in the locker room and has already made arrangements.

The Heat are miserable, and Combe doesn't want his Galacticos to be buried with them.

So this requires the players on the field to exercise restraint.

However, being beaten completely passively is not Kumbu's style. He still has Mahon in his hand. He should not be needed in the Eastern Conference Finals and Finals. It just comes in handy at this time.

"Kong, you finally think of me."

"After I came to the Raptors, I felt more like a boxer with a $50 appearance fee."

Ma Hong laughed and said that he had been on the bench and his hands were itchy.

Before Ma Hong signed a contract with the Pistons for two years of 200 million U.S. dollars, with an annual salary of 100 million U.S. dollars. He only played two games in the regular season this season, but he was paid 50 U.S. dollars to appear.

If you count the unit price per game, Ma Hong earns more than Jordan in one game.

"Kong, can I have a chat with you alone?"

"it is good."

The two walked to the corner of the locker room.

Ma Hong looked puzzled, "Kong, can I retire next season?"

"I talked to Joe on the phone a few days ago. He has decided to announce his retirement in the near future and start to enter the management of the Pistons."

"I want to retire next season and go straight to your coaching staff."

"It just so happens that my player salary next season can be my assistant salary."

Combe nodded, "Yes, but it's more appropriate for you to talk to old Thomas about this."

"The old guy has more and more opinions on me, and feels that I have robbed him of his rights."

Old Mahon grinned and said to old Thomas?Does that need to be said?
He spoke up by himself, dare old Thomas agree?

This season is almost over, and he has hardly played much. Instead of continuing to waste time, it is better to directly enter the coaching staff of Kumbu.

This is also the condition for him to agree to join the Raptors.

He didn't play much this season, but Mahon doesn't blame Comb at all, because he also knows the current situation of the Raptors.

The four Optimus Primes are on the inside, let alone Ma Hong now, even if Ma Hong is at his peak, the situation will not be much better.

Half an hour later, the fourth game of the Eastern Conference semifinals officially started.

In the first three quarters, just as Kumbu expected, the intensity of the confrontation was very high, and the referee's whistle was blown very loosely. If the whistle was played strictly, the two sides might not finish halftime and all six fouls would have to leave the field.

The Raptors still use pick-and-roll tactics, and they have established a considerable advantage in the first three quarters.

Leading by 18 points in three quarters, it seems that the Heat have been unable to recover.

Halfway through the fourth quarter, the point difference came to 25 points, and the game had almost entered garbage time.

PJ Brown's mouth has begun to curse up.

Big Ben took off an offensive rebound, and PJ Brown stepped forward to push and shoved. It seemed that he wanted to start a fight and drag the Raptors into the water.

It's a pity that Kumbu has strictly ordered the players to exercise restraint, and Big Ben obeyed Konbu's words.

Faced with PJ Brown's provocative move, Daben spread his hands and retreated.

He has a simple and honest face, which doesn't mean he's really a fool. He's at such a juncture, if he's suspended for seven or eight games, how will he play against the Bulls?
This breath must be held back, I really want to vent my anger, and wait until the regular season starts next season.

After Da Ben backed away, Mahon went up to meet him and pushed PJ Brown away.

Looking at the ferocious old Mahon, PJ Brown couldn't help but tremble.

"Boy, this might be the last game of my career."

"I don't care if Stern suspends me at all."

"How about we come to fight like a man, it's your retirement gift for me?"

Old Mahon's voice is like a ghost crawling out of hell, which makes people shudder.

PJ Brown's legs were trembling. How could a young man like him have never heard of the old Mahon's story, and this season, the old Mahon also had the feat of single-handedly beating the New York Knicks bench.

Now that he is about to retire, this is the last battle of his career, and it doesn't matter to him whether he is banned or not.

Besides, there is no salary in the playoffs. Even if the game is suspended, Ma Hong's salary will not be reduced, and he will be fined [-] to [-] U.S. dollars at most.

PJ Brown can guarantee that if he really dares to shake his fist with Ma Hong, he will definitely be carried out on a stretcher tonight.

I am still young, so there is no need to force myself with this old guy who is about to retire.

At this moment, the referee came to save his face, blew the whistle one after another, and sent off PJ Brown and Mahon who were pushing people.

With the expulsion of PJ Brown, the Heat have nothing to do, and they are now not even qualified to drag the Raptors into the water.

It is impossible for Mourning to do this kind of dirty work. After all, he is also a first-tier player in the league. If he fights against his opponent at this kind of time, wouldn't it give people the impression that he is eager to lose and shameless.

It affects his entire career.

The same goes for Tim Hardaway, who doesn't have the hardware to do the dirty work if he wants to.

A moment later, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. The Raptors successfully swept the Heat at 102:89 away and won tickets to the Eastern Conference Finals.

In the Eastern Conference finals, facing the second dynasty of the Bulls, Combe was full of emotion.

Jordan is the myth of the basketball world, and now I have the opportunity to end this myth with my own hands.

In the handshake session after the game, Mourning and Tim Hardaway came on the court and shook hands with the Raptors friendly.

The two are still very personable, mainly because they don't have any ill feeling towards the Raptors.

Because of the Knicks, Mourning is full of affection for the Raptors.

Riley was less personable, his cheeks burning as he thought of the rhetoric he said before the series started.

The Raptors gave him the feeling of despair and powerlessness.

Even when he was fighting the bulls, he had never been so desperate.

It's not that the Raptors are stronger than the Bulls, but that the Raptors happen to restrain the Heat's lineup in all directions.

Whether it is inside or outside, they are all the advantages of the Raptors.

As for the Bulls, at least the Heat's inside line can have some advantages. Mourning just met Da Ben, who specializes in short centers. If he meets Luke Langley, Mourning can really kill the Quartet. .

Early the next morning, the news that the Raptors swept the Heat to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals made headlines.

Comb and the Raptors once again received praise from the fans.

The Raptors undoubtedly played an amazing season.

Because the Bulls and the Pacers fought extremely hard, the two sides have reached a 2:2 tie. Many fans feel that the chances of the Raptors winning this year are even greater than the Bulls.

Fans living in this era have an inexplicable superstition about the Bulls.

After Jordan came back and led the team to win the first championship, if some fans say that there is a team in the current league that can end Jordan's second dynasty of the Bulls, they will definitely be ridiculed.

But now the situation is completely different, at least half of the fans believe that the Raptors have a chance to overthrow the Bulls.

"What are you giggling about?"

"A report that praises you, so happy?"

Old Thomas broke into Combe's office and saw Combe reading the newspaper with relish.

"Aren't you happy to have newspapers praising you?"

"Oh, I forgot, it seems that there are no newspapers that praise you."

Combe threw down the newspaper and began to have a daily confrontation with old Thomas.

"Don't do this with me, I have a business to find you today."

"The first thing is to try out the rookies. With so many draft picks in our hands, you should try out the rookies, right?"

"Damn it, how many draft picks do we have?"

The old Thomas was very uncomfortable. As the helm of the team, he can't remember how many draft picks he has in his team.

Combe scratched his fingers and began to count.

"The third and 23rd picks from the Nuggets."

"Wait, the Nuggets' No. 23 pick and No. [-] pick? Where did this come from, and when did it happen?"

Old Thomas was dumbfounded. He now truly understood the feelings of general manager Glenn. He didn't know anything about such a big thing that happened in the team.

"The No. 13 pick of the Celtics, which was obtained in the Snow trade."

"The Pistons' No. 10 pick, which was traded for our No. 29 pick."

"The No. 27 pick of the Supersonics, which was obtained in the Perth trade."

"The Blazers' No. 21 pick, which was obtained in the Christie trade."

"There is also a No. 29 pick in the second round that we bring."

"So we have a total of seven draft picks, including three lottery picks, three first-round picks in the 7s, and one second-round pick."

Combe didn't answer the old Thomas's question, lest he talk about it with a big mouth and spread it to Wu Sheng and Camby's ears.

"Seven draft picks? Six first-round picks?"

"You kid is a robber, right? Where did you get so many draft picks?"

Old Thomas was speechless, the Raptors' current family background is a bit strong enough to make him collapse.

I have pulled the Raptors for two years, and the family background I have saved is not as good as one-tenth of the Raptors this season.

The Raptors not only have a luxurious lineup, but also have many All-Stars. The key is to hold so many high-ranking draft picks. Old Thomas has lived most of his life and has never seen such an outrageous thing.

He secretly rejoiced that Kumbu was one of his own. If other teams were so strong and held so many draft picks, he would die of envy.

"You can do the rookie trial training by yourself. I don't have time to go to trial training now."

"If you don't want to do it, let Glenn do it. You can't really think of him as a ticket director, can you?"

Comb has no interest in rookie workouts.

He has a God's perspective. He knows better than anyone else which rookies can rise, so why waste time trying out.

But it doesn't work without trial training. After all, with so many draft picks in hand, it's too suspicious for a rookie to choose with his eyes closed, and all of them are supernovas.

So the job was simply left to old Thomas.

"I don't have time either, so let Glenn do it."

"You don't have time? I can't think of any work you can be busy with now." Kombun was puzzled.

I want to lead the team to play in the Eastern Conference finals. What kind of work does old Thomas have?
"I want to watch the ball!"

"I want to witness Jordan being blocked by my Raptors in the Finals."

"I want to see the scene where Jordan cries."

Old Thomas said shamelessly.

Kong Bu was unable to complain, Lao Deng's desire for revenge was really strong, and he still couldn't forget the matter of Chen Zhima's rotten millet.

Also, your Raptors?How dare you say it out loud.
