Moths die in open flames, so those who are miraculous and wise are bound to have miraculous disasters. Fishes die in aramid, so those who are addicted to beauty are bound to be beautiful and poisonous. - Proverb Lian Bi
The reason why I mention this sentence at the beginning is because Edison’s current situation is very close to this sentence. What he cares about most now is the Magic Team;
The Magic now appear to be moving on from him.
Okay, I admit, the above is all nonsense. The key point is that I think this sentence is very powerful, even more powerful than **Vicci.
In any case, one thing Edison is still very clear about now. He knows that although the team players are still harmonious, if this dispute is allowed to continue, sooner or later it will affect the players. Once that happens, the Magic will be
No results will be achieved. If the agents behind the players are making some moves, the team will be in real trouble.
So after thinking about it for a while, Edison decided to use one force to defeat ten at this time. He would not use any tricks and use hard power to solve the problem. So Edison knocked on the door of Otis's office and sat directly in front of him.
.
"I believe you don't want to see turmoil in the team, so in order to maintain the team's record, I hope to put all problems until next summer. Now we should try our best to ensure the stability of the team and eliminate mutual conflicts. I believe
You're not really going to let that George Wood become the new head coach of the Magic."
Otis was also surprised by Edison's sudden visit, but after listening to Edison's words, he also fell into thinking.
In fact, it was not Otis's original intention to get to this point. He didn't want to get rid of Edison at first, but just wanted to take back some power from Edison. The current situation within the Magic team is the signing, renewal and trade of players.
Edison made the decision all by himself. Every time, Edison made a decision, "Get so-and-so for me," and then Otis negotiated hard.
You must know that Otis is the manager of the player development department. These should have been his rights. Now that his ban has been taken away by Edison, he will naturally be hostile to Edison. But Pat, who originally had the most power in the Magic, held it with his life.
Edison, he didn't have any chance, so he cut his salary and joined the major shareholder who planned to sell the team, intending to muddy the water and take advantage of the opportunity to fish, but unexpectedly Dick made a stupid move and planned to drive Edison away.
From Otis's position, he also hopes that the Magic will be better, and that the team will have better players and better players, so that he can maximize his profits. If he has a few players on his team that the whole league is clamoring for, then he can simply
Live a life like an emperor. On the other hand, if the team falls, he will naturally not be able to enjoy his status as a leader. Instead, he may be pushed out as a scapegoat. So now Otis is stealing the chicken but losing the rice, and more importantly,
He had boarded the pirate ship and was unable to get off, so he could only continue to act as Dick's thug and try his best to shirk responsibility in the hope that the situation would change for the better in the future.
Although the two were still in a hostile position, they now had common interests and the possibility of cooperation. So after a detailed discussion, the Magic held a press conference the next day to clarify all the rumors and stated that the team
The team still supports Edison and hopes that he can lead the team to the O'Brien Cup.
But everyone knows that no matter what the team says at this time, don't believe it. Except for the sentence "the press conference ends here", none of it is true. But no matter what, from then on, the two sides began to die down, and the Magic entered instead.
A relatively calm phase.
Just when the Magic were united and planning to find someone to honor the flag, the great New York Knicks came forward.
"The game has entered the last minute, and there are 42 seconds left before the end of the game. The score between the two teams is now 108-102, and the Magic in the away game are leading. But now the Knicks have the ball, and the Magic's 6-point advantage is not safe. You
What do you think, Wesley?" The duo of Marv Albert and Kevin Harlan are now somewhat of a full-time commentary team for Magic games, but today their partner changed from Steve Kerr to the Knicks.
Legendary center Wesley Reid.
"It is true that New York still has hope for a comeback. Their personnel are very strong individually and many players can score at critical moments. But the problem is that Larry Brown's timeout is already our last one. I believe that with Larry
Brown's ability can definitely predict and arrange the next two rounds. But even if we defend the next round, the Magic will definitely use up 24 seconds, and then we can only use about 5 seconds to launch from the backcourt.
Offense, this is more difficult." Reed looked at the information in his hand and gave a relatively objective evaluation.
"But the Magic still have a timeout. Maybe Edison will help the Knicks apply for one in order to increase the suspense of the game."
"Hahaha, if he really does that, no matter what the final result of this game is, I will treat him to a supper later."
If the Knicks want to win the game, they can only shoot three-pointers now. Two points has no meaning, but the good news is that the Knicks have many three-pointers. Marbury, Crawford, and Quentin Richardson can all shoot.
, In fact, the Knicks had the highest three-point shooting percentage in previous games by young potato Nate Robinson, but the conservative Larry Brown would definitely not choose to let the rookie attack.
Edison also knew very well that the Knicks would definitely grab three points, so only Howard was left inside to ensure backcourt rebounds, and the others were all outside defensive players, including Rondo, Iguodala, Tony Allen, and Gerald Wallace.
But Edison also couldn't guess who the Knicks would let shoot in the end. In fact, even if someone told him Larry Brown's arrangement, he couldn't guarantee that the Knicks would really be the one to shoot in the end. Because compared to the fake infighting of the Magic management, the Knicks
Sri Lanka's players really started to fight among themselves.
Marbury has expressed in front of the media many times that he was dissatisfied with the fact that his shots were lower than Crawford's. Crawford was not an honest person at the time. Since then, he basically did not give much in the game.
Marbury passed the ball.
So no matter who Larry Brown actually assigns the final shot to, once the ball is handed to another person, it's completely difficult to say what will happen in the end.
So after a rush, Crawford ran out and caught the ball.
Iguodala immediately posted it, and several other players were also keeping an eye on his defensive player. Except for Howard, the other 9 players on the court were all active near the three-point line.
. Seeing this scene, Howard, who is good at being funny, couldn't help but stand at the penalty spot, stretched out his left hand and pointed clockwise in a circle, making an unusually cool gesture of pointing the country.
Edison couldn't help but yell at him. Howard could only put away his tricks angrily, bending over and spreading his arms to defend the inside.
Iguodala was very confused when he looked at Crawford in front of him. This is the type of player he least wants to guard. If the opponent is James, Kobe or Wade, although he will not be able to guard it, he will die.
You understand. When you meet Crawford, you may not even know how you died. His dribbling rhythm and fake movements are too big. No matter how strong your physical fitness is, it will not be of use, and a
I was accidentally knocked down, which is the background of the top collection.
So people like James kill defensive players physically, while people like Crawford torture defensive players mentally.
But if he doesn't want to defend anymore, he has to defend now. Iguodala has no doubt that if he doesn't try his best, Edison will kill him when he returns.
Crawford still dribbled in a street ball style in front of Iguodala. The ball swung back and forth, left and right, significantly larger than the professional players. Because he wanted to attack, Crawford did not step back, but pressed forward.
The three-point line is very close.
Suddenly Crawford stepped forward, but Iguodala did not move. The order he received was very clear, which was to stick to the three-point line and score 2 points casually. Crawford saw that Iguodala could not move.
, couldn't really rush in, so he could only pull it back, and then use the pull-up and fadeaway shot that he was not good at.
What Iguodala was waiting for was his shot, and immediately jumped up to interfere with him.
"Help!" was heard twice. Although Iguodala did not look back, he knew from the sound that the ball had not been scored. "Fast break opportunity!" After Iguodala judged the situation, he quickly accelerated towards the Knicks basket.
.
But just when he passed Crawford who was retreating, the guy fell down with a "ah" sound.
The referee's whistle also sounded, Iguodala committed an offensive foul, and the Knicks regained the ball.
Edison became angry when he saw it, and rushed directly to the referee to question him, "Iguodala didn't push, the guy fell down on his own, he was acting, he shouldn't have given them the ball." Edison
Although he was furious, he still retained the last trace of reason and did not scold the referee.
The fans in the stadium quit. This is New York's home court. Do you still want to change the decision? So everyone applauded the referee to show their support for the decision. Spike Lee, the Knicks' number one loyalist, even raised his eyebrows at the referee.
Thumbs up, and then said to Edison, "Everyone saw Iguodala hit Jamal with his arm. If you can't see it, just go back and see the doctor."
Edison stared at Spike Lee, who had a mean look on his face, and then tried to calm down his emotions, "I can't be impulsive. If I eat it, all the team's previous efforts will be lost." So he didn't do too much.
After struggling, he turned around and returned to the bench. However, feeling that he was being treated unfairly, he still picked up a coat that was placed on the chair and threw it to the ground.
The Knicks had no chance to attack for the second time. After Richardson received the ball, he made a steady shot.
Edison called a timeout and put in his strongest offensive lineup again, with Nash, Roy, Martin and other free throw masters all on the field.
In the end, 6 seconds before the end of the game, Brand succeeded in the inside, and there was a 5-point gap without a timeout, so Larry Brown had to give up the game. The Magic almost won another victory from New York.
After the game, Edison wildly waved his fists in celebration on the scene, with a ferocious expression on his face, and the gentleness and elegance of the past were completely gone.

Don't say that this kind of coaching change is unrealistic. I have a realistic basis for this.
The prototype of the technical advisor is Grant, who later replaced Mourinho as Chelsea head coach. I think everyone is well aware of the feud between Mourinho and Chelsea.
Another example is when bei jing Guoan fired Li Jangsu. At that time, Guoan was first in the league, but they lost to the pursuers behind them, and their advantage was narrowed, and then they were fired.
What can happen on the football field can also happen on the basketball court.
