Milicic's performance was infinitely magnified on the TV, especially when he just defeated the Dream Six Team some time ago and became a big hit during the Olympics. He proved in the Olympics that Brown made a mistake in not using him, which also made people feel
Brown was criticized for having problems with the formation of the Dream Six team.
Milicic, who performed well after the first quarter, did not appear in the rest of the game, and had a sensitive conflict with head coach Larry Brown in the fourth quarter. The post-game press conference led the team to a victory.
Brown actually had a sullen face, which made reporters who had not heard anything for a long time excited. There were various speculations. For example, Larry Brown and Milicic had an affair and then their relationship changed. Relatively speaking, they were not compatible.
It’s still the most reliable. Some people even claimed that they could read a lot of stories from watching their lip reading in the video, and wrote a 20,000-word column in a local media in Detroit, which made Milicic feel a little bit uncomfortable after reading it.
I'm sweating. I can write 20,000 words in less than a minute's speech. This guy is a bit unqualified to be a sports reporter. He must be at the starting point to be a master.
Even the hero of the Pistons' championship last season came out to speak out. Okur, who had just switched to the Jazz, criticized Brown. Dumars sent him away at Brown's strong suggestion to save salary space and sign McDyess.
, it didn’t matter that they couldn’t cooperate, but Larry Brown also said after Okur left, “Turks don’t know how to defend at all.” This method of whipping the corpse made Okur very unhappy, and he was reminded by reporters during the interview
Expressing his dissatisfaction, he said: "Larry never considers other people's feelings. He never believes in European players like me and Darko. He thinks that we have not received American college basketball training and are not qualified to play in the NBA.
I used to think that this is how the NBA treats players, but when I came out, I found that it was all Larry's behavior. He was like a tyrant. Sooner or later, Darko would be destroyed by him."
Mike James's performance with the Pistons last season was not bad. He could steadily contribute points every time he stood up from the bench. However, because of his poor defense, Brown resolutely gave up on him, which made this old man
He wanted to continue wandering. However, as a fringe player who bounced around many teams, he did not dare to offend Brown, so he simply said: "I didn't understand the situation at the time. Larry is a good coach. This
It can be seen from his ability to lead the Pistons to win the championship that Darko is a good player. This can also be seen from his ability to lead the Serbian and Montenegrin team to win the Olympic gold medal. The team is like this. In a long season, it needs
With running-in, some unpredictable things may happen.”
After this incident, Larry Brown asked the team to punish Milicic, impose fines and suspensions, etc. However, Dumas did not want to make the matter a big deal, and he brought Milicic to the team, so Brown did this
It was a bit disrespectful to himself. Brown kept asking Dumars to give him more authority so that he could properly control the team.
Milicic was sitting in Dumas's office, looking at a photo of Dumas hanging on the wall. It was a precious souvenir of their bad boy days. It was these achievements and loyalty to the Pistons that made Dumas
Mas taking his current position has given players and coaches more respect for him.
"Darko, don't be silent, I know you must have a lot to say." Dumas said to Milicic.
"I do have a lot to say, but before I say it, I want to know if it makes sense. I have been ignored too many times." Although Milicic was a little nervous facing Dumas,
, but was soon replaced by anger.
"I will listen to every word from the heart of everyone on the Pistons, and I will do my best to handle what I should do."
"Actually, the thing is very simple. I don't know what my position is in this team. If you need a water dispenser manager, I'm afraid my salary is a bit higher, and I will feel very scared. Although I don't
I have not done anything in the NBA environment, but I believe that I am a qualified rotation player, and I can also do what the main players do in some teams." Milicic said angrily, regarding Brown's remarks.
He was so angry that he hated seeing the blue Pistons uniform hanging on the wall.
"Darko, you have always been the most important part of my team's future plan. I hope you can be patient. Sooner or later, this team will be handed over to you. I will also go to Larry to talk. I believe he will give
A satisfactory positioning for you will also give you a reasonable playing time." Dumas made a promise to Milicic.
Milicic vented his grievances on Dumas and felt a lot more comfortable. After all, a football legend and general manager can tolerate you like this.
Milicic continued to return to the team for training. Larry Brown did not make it difficult for him as Dumas said. Milicic also felt that he might be a little extreme and lacked patience and restraint.
In the following days, he trained even harder. He never missed a boring physical training session. He also conducted confrontation exercises under the guidance of the inside coach every day. After training, he also practiced shooting, using fatigue.
The body needs to remember the feeling of shooting.
Two days later, the Bucks visited the Palace Arena of Auburn Hills. During the game, the Bucks' main players Joe Smith, Michael Reid, TJ Ford and others did not play in the second half, and Gazulic and Haislip were sent.
After waiting for the substitutes, Larry Brown also sent in substitutes this time. Even players like Dixon and Parker came on the court, but Milicic was still kept firmly off the court.
Over there, TJ Ford is watching the Bucks' performance on the court like the big brother of the team. Milicic, who is also the proud son of the 2003 generation, is eager to get some playing time from these fringe NBA players.
.
"TJ is really amazing. He can keep up with me. He is so fast that I almost didn't get away from him several times." Hamilton commented on TJ Ford's outstanding performance.
The boss said with a smile, "Of course he's awesome. He was a rookie in 2003 last year. Each of the rookies in 2003 is better than the last. LeBron, Cameron, Devin, Chriss, Kirk, TJ
They are all very powerful. Oh, by the way, we also have one. He is even more powerful and we will definitely win as soon as he appears on the court. This year he is even more powerful and will bless us off the court and we will win."
"No matter what, I was the second pick in the 2003 draft. I remember that the 1996 draft was also very good. Iverson, Camby, Marbury, Kobe, Nash, and Ray were all good, but there were also some disgraceful ones.
He didn't come through the draft, and I don't even know if he is considered a player in the 1996 class." Milicic also fought back.
Ben's expression changed immediately after hearing this, and he said to Milicic: "Boy, please remember that this is my territory!"
"Yes! This is your territory, so I don't want to stay here. It's not because I'm afraid of you, or because I'm not as good as you, but a lion will not fight with a hunting dog to grab rotten food. This year you won't
I will have the luck of winning a championship again, and I can tell you now, the one who beats you is either Duncan or me!"
