Edison has been under too much pressure to produce a harvest this season.
From the initial team reconstruction to the dark horse record in the regular season, he has been in the whirlpool of various rumors and discussions. After every game, you can see it on TV, newspapers and the Internet.
Criticism and praise of Edison.
And because Edison later showed his talent in entertainment, he also began to be harassed by paparazzi outside of competitions, and his every move was exposed to various cameras and cameras. This once again narrowed the scope of his activities.
A public figure, in order to maintain his positive image, cannot vent his negative emotions like ordinary people.
So in the past six months, Edison's emotions and pressure have been accumulating, and his body has become worse and worse. Hill's injury and the team's unfavorable performance in the playoffs became the straw that broke the camel's back, and he finally managed to hold on.
Can't stand it any longer.
When Edison opened his eyes, he discovered that everything just now was just a dream. In fact, his sleep had not been good recently. He either couldn't sleep or had messy dreams like this.
In reality, Edison's hearing is not good enough to distinguish the commentator's voice from the noisy stadium; in reality, his eyesight is very good and he can see the scoreboard clearly; in reality, he has multiple ink pens prepared so that he will not be unable to draw tactics.
Picture: Although Josh is the dunk king in reality, he can't do a pull-up dunk from the free throw line, and he can even make a personal leap; in reality, they are trailing the Pistons 1-3, and tonight they will start a life-and-death battle in Game 5.
Edison shook his head helplessly, completely throwing away the dream just now from his memory, "It seems that I have been under too much pressure recently. It seems that the job of the head coach is indeed not easy."
Edison muttered to himself, then turned over and patted the empty quilt beside him, "It would be great if Rachel could be by my side now without waiting until tonight."
He couldn't fall asleep anymore, so Edison simply got up. After washing himself and washing himself, he found that there was nothing to do. It was only 6 o'clock and the arena was not open yet, so he sat on the sofa again and started to feel silly.
.
After sitting there for more than 10 minutes, Edison felt really bored and decided to find something to do. He didn't want to do anything related to basketball. Recently, he wanted to kick something orange when he saw it, and he didn't even dare to go to the supermarket.
Go, I'm afraid I won't be able to help but smash someone else's fruit stand.
After thinking for a while, Edison dialed Wang Ziqiang's phone number.
After two beeps, the phone was picked up, "hello!?"
"I x, my voice is still so calm, this grandson got up so early." Edison said bad things about Wang Ziqiang in his stomach, while pretending to be serious, "Ziqiang, are you up already? I'm a little bit
I want to talk to you about something."
"Okay, I'll go to your place right away." Wang Ziqiang's voice was still stiff but crisp.
"Uh~ By the way, have you had breakfast?"
"No, I'm doing it. I'll go to your place first. There's no rush about breakfast." He continued to be blunt and cold, impersonal.
"No, like this, you keep doing it. I'll go to your place, you do more, and then we'll talk while eating."
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Wang Ziqiang secretly wondered why this foreigner asked others if they had eaten.
Because the two families were very close to each other, with only one street separating them, Edison soon trotted all the way to Wang Ziqiang's home.
Soon Wang Ziqiang prepared breakfast for two people, including 2 servings of oatmeal, fruit salad, a large glass of juice, a piece of cherry pie, plus a sandwich with freshly baked bread, lettuce and fresh sausage, and finally a plate
Big beef balls….
"Why is your breakfast so Westernized? Don't you make Chinese breakfast? For example, preserved egg and lean meat porridge or something." Edison looked at the plates and bowls on the table. They were very different from what he had imagined before, so he couldn't help but start
complain.
After listening to Edison's words, Wang Ziqiang raised her eyes and glanced at him, and then said, "These things are very nutritious, they save time to make, the materials are easy to buy, and the taste is not bad."
"Okay, what you said makes sense." Edison was really hungry, so he picked up a sandwich and took a big bite.
Edison was busy eating and blocked his mouth, but Wang Ziqiang did not like to talk during serious meals out of discipline. So the only sounds in the house were the TV broadcasting the news and the clinking of bowls and spoons.
After finishing the food, Wang Ziqiang took everything to the kitchen naturally. Edison looked at her familiar movements and thought to himself, "Although this guy is cold to others, he is really a good housekeeper."
Soon Wang Ziqiang returned to the room and sat across from Edison, "Why did you come to me so early?"
"Uh~, did you know that our team is playing a game with the Pistons tonight?" Edison was fine at first, but he was just too idle. Now that someone asked him about it, he quickly brought up the topic he had thought of on the way.
"I know, Rachel and I will go to the venue tonight to watch it, and you gave me the ticket."
"Yes, I remembered. This game is the match point for the Pistons. If we lose, we will be eliminated." Edison rubbed the cup in his hand and said to Wang Ziqiang like he was confiding.
Wang Ziqiang refilled Edison's cup with water. Edison thanked him and continued his thoughts.
"Actually, I never expected my team to make it to the playoffs. Even making it this far has exceeded my expectations. It can be said that we rely more on luck than strength. Ordinarily, we are now being
Being eliminated is natural and no big deal. But it has reached this point and it is not easy to give up. You clearly know that you are pursuing something that is impossible to obtain and destined to fail, but you cannot control yourself.
.Like a moth, it flutters into the fire and devotes its life to its ideals."
Edison became more and more depressed as he talked. Wang Ziqiang began to listen carefully, but gradually frowned. When Edison said this, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and interrupted him.
"Are you still the head coach of the Magic next year?"
Wang Ziqiang suddenly spoke, startling Edison, and then said with a little confusion, "Yeah."
"Then you can just win it back next year. Why are you thinking so much now? It's not like you really want to die. And it's already 7:30. I'm going to work at Mark's place. You should also go to the gym today.
That's it." After saying this, Wang Ziqiang stood up and made an inviting gesture toward the door.
There was nothing else to say. Edison was ordered to be kicked out, so he could only walk out of the door angrily, and then said to himself, "There is no other way in this world, and my daughter dares to insult me." But no matter what, he is here with Wang Ziqiang.
After I spoke out all the things I had been suppressing in my heart, I felt much more relaxed.
At 8 p.m., Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals will be played as it is.
I won’t go into details about the process. Although Edison and the Magic generals exerted all their strength, and even really used the "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon", the Detroit Pistons once again showed the heritage of the defending champion. Lashi, who had five fouls,
De-Wallace stepped forward at the critical moment of the fourth quarter and scored 4 points in a row to help the team exceed the score. He also made two free throws at the end, leading the Pistons to defeat the Orlando Magic 88-82 on the road.
They eliminated their opponents with a total score of 4-1 and entered the finals again. The San Antonio Spurs also eliminated the SuperSonics with the same score and have been waiting for the Pistons on the stage of the finals for a long time...
When the final whistle sounded, the Pistons players gathered together to cheer and celebrate, but after being reminded by the Magic staff, Larry Brown quickly led the Pistons players into the tunnel and back to the locker room. After all, this is not the
If you want to celebrate at your home court, you can go back and celebrate. There is no point in irritating others. When they first entered the tunnel, one or two shouts could be clearly heard in the stadium.
At this time, the Magic players were standing on the court blankly. The skinny Nash stood at the top of the key with his waist in his hands, licking his upper lip; Howard kept slapping his face with both hands, as if he wanted to hit him.
As if waking up; Iguodala stood calmly in the middle of the court, still holding the sweat-stained basketball in his hand; Marion sat on the stool and kept slapping his palms. Although Edison still couldn't guess
He couldn't tell what he was thinking, but his mind was definitely in a mess right now; Hardaway in a suit and tie was comforting Martin, whose eyes were red. If the Magic could defeat the Pistons, then Hardaway would be able to appear on the finals stage again.
.But there are no ifs, the Magic lose, the playoff journey is over, and the 2004-05 season is over.
The Magic players, coaches, staff, and even all the fans present had actually expected this outcome. They felt that they were ready. But when the facts were really revealed in front of them, everyone knew that it turned out that beforehand
The preparations were all nonsense. Many female fans had tears streaming down their faces, and lamentations could be heard one after another in the stadium.
Just when the Magic Arena was depressing, more than 30 spectators behind the bench suddenly stood up collectively, and then the music started.
Except for a few people, no one else knew what they were going to do. Seeing their abnormal behavior and listening to the abnormal music in the arena, people raised their heads in confusion and looked at it all with melancholy.

"Killyou)" came to this world ahead of time as an inspirational song for losers after Edison changed some lyrics.
The players were confused at first, not knowing what these people were going to do, but when they heard the lyrics sung by these people clearly, everyone understood. Looking at Edison next to him who looked tired but still had a smile on his face, the players felt a sense of joy in their hearts.
I couldn't explain the feeling, "It turns out this is also the coach's arrangement."
Edison walked to the players and gathered everyone together, "The season is over, we lost, but this is what I want to tell you now, and what all Orlando Magic fans want to tell you, 'As long as it doesn't kill us
, we can become stronger'."
"Yes coach, we will get stronger."
"Okay, go thank the fans. Then go back to the locker room. This season is over. Let's gather for the last time tomorrow and you can go on vacation."
--------segmentation------
Kneel down, this is my strength, you have not guessed it. In fact, it is quite obvious if you look carefully at the dream.
And everyone, please help me get rid of that "ugly" impression, please.
As the saying goes, it won’t end until we see the championship.
