NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

Chapter 214 Prisoner 0172 Comes Out!

On January 1, the Philadelphia 3ers played at home against the Boston Celtics, a traditional giants team.

Unknowingly, Newman has been the coach of the Green Kai for some time.

However, Lu Kai is now determined to play badly and compete for the center of the three major Chinese high school students, so Newman has no pressure at all. What he has to do every day is to lead the team to lose.

"Old man, it is said that people are in good spirits when they have happy events. You lose every day, and you look better than me who wins every day."

"Looking at at least ten pounds fatter, your Celtics' food is good?"

Kongbu laughed and teased his old hand.

"Anyway, it's all bad. I just need to keep losing, so what pressure can I have?"

"Kong, don't worry about what you told me a few days ago. Even if I don't vote for Antoine Walker, I will definitely vote for yours."

What Newman said was about voting for the All-Star bench.

The All-Star starters are voted by the fans one by one, and the substitutes are voted by the coaches of the league.

Comb hopes that besides Yao Ming and Iverson, there will be another All-Star in his team. In addition to improving the statistics of Reed or Ginobili, he has to ask his old acquaintances for help.

There are a total of 29 teams in the league, and the coaches of most of them have a close relationship with Combe.

The coach took the lead in voting, so the assistants under him must not be against the coach.

So as long as Reed or Ginobili's data is not bad, then their selection to the bench is a certainty.

Unknowingly, Kumbu's network has reached a terrifying level.

The 76ers and the Raptors in the east are his base camps. Even if the old Wilkens is now coaching the Raptors, he can't erase the mark left by Comb on the Raptors.

George Karl of the Bucks has always had a good relationship with Comb. There is no interest relationship between the two, and this friendship seems more pure.

Needless to say, the New York Knicks, even if the old clapper and Kongbu bickered every day, as long as Kongbu spoke up, it was not something that was too much, and the old clapper could not refuse it emotionally or rationally.

Of course, the old clapper must have a few words with Kong Bu.

For the Charlotte Hornets, general manager Bass Sr. and Combe are inseparable, and have maintained close contact over the years.

Needless to say, Doug Reeves of the Magic is the No. [-] licking dog of Kongbu. When Kongbu asked him for help, he was as happy as Chinese New Year.

Lukai's Newman is one of his own.

The Pistons can be regarded as half of their own, and the old Dumas at the helm has to call Comb to greet him every year and holiday.

Most teams in the East have a close relationship with Kumbu. As long as Konbu asks, they will definitely not refuse such a trivial matter.

In fact, the situation in the west is similar. The old Adelman of the Kings, Tang Shuai of the Rockets, the old Nelson of the Mavericks, and the old Sanders of the Timberwolves are all friends of Comb.

Even if it is the old Blazers coach Dunleavy who has had a bad relationship before, and now his son is still gold-plated on Konbu's CBA team, he has to give Konbu a little face.

The Nuggets coach Meschery, the Warriors coach Malone, and the Grizzlies coach Ma Hong are all direct coaches of Comb.

The current Kong Bu's ability in the league is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

"By the way, since you guys are going to show off, I think it's better to sell Antoine as soon as possible."

"He is definitely not the kind of player who can lead the team to win the championship, and it is even difficult to lead the team to the playoffs."

"Wait until this year's draft, you have selected an outstanding rookie, and then you may have to give Antoine a bad look."

Kombu said in a low voice.

He wasn't afraid that Fat Toutuo would hear his evaluation of him, but he didn't want Newman to make life difficult.

If it wasn't for Kumbu's interference, there are actually two stars in the Lukai team, Fat Toutuo and Pierce. The statistics of these two are very high, but it is a pity that they failed to lead the Lukai into the playoffs.

Now that Luke has no Pierce, there is only one Walker leading the team. His personal statistics are luxurious, averaging 25.7 points, 9.8 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game. If you only look at the statistics, he is really a super star.

"Indeed, I also have similar thoughts. Billups was delayed by him back then."

"Now the general manager of the team has an ugly face every time he meets Billups in a game. If Billups is still our player, it will not be a bad show now."

"I will tell the general manager exactly what you said, and trade him before the All-Star weekend."

Newman has absolute confidence in Kong Bu. Since Kong Bu said that Fat Toutuo is not good, then he is not good.

Besides, he didn't think much of Fat Toutuo at first, because this guy's style of play is too selfish and his efficiency is too low. Newman is also a coach who has seen the world. What kind of player has he never been in contact with?
For a player like Fat Toutuo, he couldn't be as reluctant to sell him as a baby bump.

Soon, the game on the field began.

When he saw the 76ers' starting lineup, Newman was speechless because he didn't see Yao Ming and Iverson.

In this game, Combe rested the two in rotation.

For a while, Newman was not sure what Kumbu was thinking. He had won too much. How many games did he want to take the initiative to lose?

Or do you want to send "warmth" and let your poor green Kai win a game?
This kind of thinking lasted for a few minutes, and he couldn't laugh or cry. Even if Yao Ming and Iverson didn't play, the 76ers' lineup was not something that Green Kai could resist.

Lukai's main attack point was Fat Toutuo, but he was suddenly blown up by AK47 Kirilenko after playing tonight.

There were five shots in the opening game, but Fat Toutuo could really miss one, not a single point.

Kumbu was speechless. In front of Fat Toutuo, Kirilenko really looked like a god of war.

The main attack point was completely locked, the offense could not be opened, and Lukai's defensive end was useless.

Ginobili made various breakthroughs and scored various points, and Reid made various outside shots and also scored various points. The two brothers directly led the 76ers to a 13:2 climax in the opening game.

Without Yao Ming and Iverson, the 76ers are indeed not a super team.

But Yucai is really ruthless, especially after Kirilenko locked the opponent's main attack point, Yaodao and Reid are really ruthless, with a difference of almost 1 minute.

Newman sighed, what is this called?He thought that Kong Bu was here to send warmth. Who would have thought that the remnant 76ers could also hammer their own Green Kai.

Can the gap really be that big?
The gap can indeed be that big. Manu Ginobili, who plays as a substitute in the 76ers, is definitely a leader in the Green Kai lineup.

That is to say, the league is now showing a grouping situation in advance, so it seems that the 76ers do not have such invincible dominance.

……

The game on the field was a torment for Kumbu, because the opponent's performance was too vulnerable.

When the game was about to end, Kumbu breathed a sigh of relief. If he coached a team like Lukai, he might not be able to stay for a day.

He took over tonight's technical statistics form from Adelman Jr.

吉诺比利出手了21次，命中了13球，另外还有罚球8中7，全场入账了36分4篮板5助攻3抢断，不管是进攻还是防守都堪称完美。

And Reed's performance is also quite good, because Ginobili's breakthrough ability is too amazing, opponents have to double-team Ginobili from time to time, cutting off his breakthrough route, resulting in Reid getting a lot of open shots. Chance.

19投11中，其中三分球10中5，罚球5中4，入账了31分3篮板2助攻1抢断。

When two backcourt players of a team score 30+ at the same time, it will be difficult for the team to lose, at least in this era, if it is in the small ball era of later generations, then Not guaranteed.

The performance of both of them can be called perfect, but in Kumbu's mind, the best player tonight is not these two, but Kirilenko who works hard on the court.

He played a full 10 minutes tonight, and only scored 8 points.

不过其他方面的数据却是堪称奢华，8分12篮板7助攻6盖帽4抢断，就只差一个抢断就是一记五乘五的逆天数据。

With such terrifying defensive statistics, one can imagine how much Fat Toutuo struggled tonight. He was like a ghost on the court, and he didn't even know what he was doing in the second half.

孔布看了眼绿凯那边的技术统计，胖头陀一共入账了7分4篮板6助攻，很难相信这是一个场均25+10球员打出来的数据。

When he saw Fat Toutuo's hit rate, Kong Bu couldn't help laughing.

17 out of 2!

That's right, this guy took 17 shots tonight, and only hit two goals, one mid-range shot, and one three-pointer. If he didn't score free throws, he would only score five points.

Seeing this weird number, Kong Bu couldn't help but yelled at the field.

"Prisoner 0172 comes out!"

It's a pity that Fat Toutuo just looked at Kongbu strangely, and didn't come out, nor did he answer.

Kumbu was very disappointed that he didn't get the expected response.

……

In the next month's schedule, in order to make Reed or Ginobili selected as an All-Star, Comb can be said to have broken his heart, and he had to keep a close eye on the technical statistics in almost every game.

The sky paid off. At the beginning of February, the results of the vote of the league coaches were released, and Reid was selected as the Eastern Conference All-Star backup guard.

An average of 18 points per game is considered the minimum threshold for a guard to be selected as an All-Star.

However, considering that the 76ers' record ranks first in the Eastern Conference and has the blessing of record aura, no one can fault Reed's selection.

It's a pity for Ginobili. Even if Kumbu has been helping, his average data has only increased to 15 points. If he is a forward, then there is no problem with this data being selected as an All-Star.

Because under normal circumstances, this year's Eastern Conference All-Stars are full of dicks.

The starting lineup is center Antonio Davis, the two forwards are Anthony Mason Jr., Carter, and the two guards are McGrady and Iverson.

Davis and Mason are left behind in previous years, not to mention starting, they are very reluctant to come off the bench.

However, Comb has been operating in the Eastern Conference for so many years, and the current Eastern Conference All-Star lineup is certainly not so shabby.

The starting center Yao Ming, the forwards are Dazhi and Carter, and then the backcourt McGrady and Iverson, the grades immediately improved.

The starting lineup in the West is luxurious, O'Pang, Duncan, Garnett, Kobe and Kidd.

The attention of this year's All-Stars is very high. On the one hand, there will be another Yao Sha showdown, and on the other hand, the old enemies Kong Bu and Zen Master will meet again.

The 76ers are No. [-] in the East and the Lakers are No. [-] in the West. The head coaches of both teams will automatically become the leading coaches of this All-Star team.

No one can tell how many times Kong Bu and Zen master have fought against each other. Anyway, every time Kong Bu took advantage of it. Whenever Zen master meets Kong Bu in these years, he has always suffered a disadvantage.

"Kong, this is the teaching assistant's resume delivered over."

"There are too many, there must be at least 100 copies. I eliminated some guys who joined in the fun, and there are more than 30 copies."

Billy King is now almost Comb's little assistant, helping Comb with some trivial chores.

In fact, he was quite grateful to Kong Bu. After all, he had no clue and offended Kong Bu severely. In this case, Kong Bu gave him a way out.

"The guy who joins in the fun?" Kumbu asked curiously.

"It's just some laymen who have never heard of it, and there is even a salesman who sells tractors. I really don't know how these guys are confident in submitting their resumes."

"Most of the remaining 30 or so resumes are retired veterans, and there are also some experienced teaching assistants."

Kong Bu nodded, took over 30 resumes and read them carefully.

The first resume is an old acquaintance, former Grizzlies coach Brian Hill.

He and Kongbu are old acquaintances, and have always maintained a good relationship with Kongbu, but they have less contact in the past two years.

I didn't expect him to be so miserable.

"Go and contact Brian and ask him to report tomorrow."

"Forget it, I'll call him myself. This guy is thin-skinned, and he's all mixed up like this. He didn't know how to call me earlier."

Kong Bu said angrily.

After reading a few more resumes, Kongbu was not very satisfied. Although most of them were retired veterans, they were all unknown guys in their player days. Don't know these people.

"Huh? John Lucas?"

Comb saw a familiar name. This John Lucas is also an old coach. He was an NBA coach in 92, but he was not very capable. After two years as a coach, he returned to his old job as an assistant coach. .

Anyway, this is also an extremely experienced teaching assistant.

"Contact John Lucas and let him report tomorrow." Combe made a decision.

This time, the two teaching assistants that Kongbu recruited were relatively normal. Before that, a bunch of his teaching assistants were either related households or young people younger than himself.

The current Brian Hill and John Lucas are both serious coaches, and their joining will make Comb's coaching staff look a lot more professional.
