    Chapter 110: Advance to the Eastern Conference Finals (Part 2)

    ¡°This is a game that feels as easy as abuse.¡±

    After the game, the local media in Orlando published reports full of despair.

    In the first game, although Howard did not get too much data, his hard work on the court and his fighting spirit for every ball really inspired the Magic.  In the first half of the game, the Magic's morale had been high and they were playing passionately on the court. The media and fans of the Orlando Magic once believed that the strength gap between the Magic and the Cavaliers was not so large that it could not be bridged.

    Even if the Cavaliers have a super strong support like Zhang Kong, we also have Orlando's "Warcraft", who can fight with real swords and guns. Who will win and who will lose, who will live and who will die before the last moment, we can't leave early.  assertion.

    Although the loss in the first game and the injury to Warcraft cast a shadow over their playoff prospects, the subsequent trade message from Zhang Kong shed light on opportunities in the hearts of everyone in Orlando.

    Unfortunately, reality has proven that this sunshine is just a delusion in their hearts.

    "This is a complete defeat." The Los Angeles Times commented on the performance of the Magic's generals in this game. In the comments of the Los Angeles Times, they did not let go of every player from head coach Stan Van Gundy to those who played.  The players, after criticizing almost one by one, came to a conclusion.

    "The Magic, which lost Howard, have completely failed. They have no chance of eliminating the Cavaliers. Now all they can hope for is to seize the opportunity to return to Orlando's home court and win one game in the series to avoid being like this.  The Atlanta Hawks were generally swept by the Cavaliers."

    "The Cavaliers have shown their championship status, but this championship status is destined not to last."

    For Magic fans, this is a painful night, because they can only watch their team being slaughtered by others in front of the TV in pain, but there is no way. The only option is to turn off the TV and not go.  Take a look and save yourself the trouble.  For Cavaliers fans, their feelings are quite complicated!

    The team's performance was quite good, and it can even be said to be the Cavaliers' best performance since the team was founded.  The Cavaliers' results this season are like a dream, making them want to sleep in this dream forever.  But the dream will eventually wake up one day, but they didn't expect that the dream would wake up so quickly.

    A bolt of thunder passed by, and when I opened my eyes, it was already reality.

    The next two games were held in Orlando.  Just like what the Los Angeles media said, the Orlando Magic worked hard to defend their dignity and win at their home court.  But the Cavaliers didn't give them any chance. Howard's injury made them even lose the power to resist. At the home court of the Orlando Magic, the Cavaliers won two consecutive games and suffered almost no decent resistance in the two games.  The team's poor performance made the Magic fans who bought tickets to watch the game angry and distressed. In the first game at the Magic's home court, in the second half of the fourth quarter, some of the Magic fans turned up early.  Left the scene.

    In the second game, many Magic fans left the arena at the beginning of the second half.  They really couldn't bear to continue to watch their team being bullied like this by others. They were half angry and half helpless.

    After sweeping the Hawks 4-0, the Cavaliers once again swept the Magic 4-0 to enter the Eastern Conference Finals.

    And Cavaliers fans are struggling with happiness.  The happier they are now, the more they can think of the sad scenes next season.  At the same time, the protests against Zhang Kong by a small group of radical fans also began to intensify. They even burned Zhang Kong's No. 25 jersey and made fierce comments in front of the media, saying that Zhang Kong was a shameless liar and had betrayed the Cavaliers.  He has no gratitude whatsoever to the Cavaliers for giving him a chance to play.

    Bill Simmons, who had disappeared for half a year, finally seized the opportunity to jump out again, and took advantage of this gust of wind to write a vicious article in his column.

    In his description, Zhang Kong became a villain who had no sense of responsibility and only cared about profit and no regard for morality.  In the article, he claimed that Zhang Kong is a combination of villains and thorns like Bill Laimbeer and Big Dog Robinson, and called on NBA teams not to accept Zhang Kong.

    People like Zhang Kong should be kicked out of the NBA.

    "You really caused me a lot of trouble, Andy." Zhang Kong frowned and took a sip of the 1982 Lafite specially prepared for him by Andy Miller. To be honest, this expensive red wine was in his possession.  It tastes similar to concentrated grape juice in the mouth, or even worse than grape juice.  He also thought that drinking high-end red wine meant elegance, but when he actually drank it, he realized that the weird taste was??It was hard to get used to, as far as he was concerned, but the spicy vodka suited his taste better.

    "I'm sorry, my boss, this happened beyond my expectation." Andy Miller said apologetically: "But this can also be a good thing. If it breaks out in advance, more people can  More teams are involved, and I can gain more negotiating space for you, the boss."

    "Well, if you can turn a bad thing into a good thing, that's not bad." Zhang Kong didn't have much objection to Andy Miller's handling method.

    "So, your communication with those teams. Which team do you think is best for me."

    "I personally suggest that you go to New York, boss." Andy Miller paused and then said: "Over the years, the Knicks have been in chaos, paying the highest salary in the league, but their results are at the bottom of the league. Their biggest star  , Marbury has already suffered opposition from all of New York, and his conflict with head coach Isiah Thomas has also made the entire Knicks dislike him. If you, boss, choose to go to New York, as long as you can improve, boss  New York's record, leading New York into the playoffs, will immediately gain the widest support. At the same time, New York is the largest city in the United States, and its sports market is so vast that even Los Angeles cannot compare. In recent years, New York's record has been so poor.  The level of salary expenditure is even more top-notch in the league, and there is a large amount of luxury tax expenditure. But even under such circumstances, the New York Knicks can still maintain profitability. It can be seen from this point how hot their football market is.  Come out. If you can go to New York, it will help the boss to develop your business value to the maximum extent. For the same game, playing in New York and playing in Cleveland receive completely different attention, even if they achieve the same  The achievements and the impact they have are also day by day.¡±

    Andy Miller spoke eloquently: "But it is not easy to move to New York. I talked with the general manager of New York. He is very interested in bringing you the boss. At the same time, the Knicks boss James Dorsey  Lan also really hopes that you will come to New York. But the situation of the New York team is really not very good, and it is difficult for them to come up with a big enough bargaining chip to impress."

    "Well, except for the New York Knicks."

    "Both the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers want to get you, but they can't offer much leverage. And the Los Angeles Lakers have Kobe Bryant. Boss, you left the Cavaliers because you didn't want to have a dispute with James. I don't think you want to either.  Go to the Lakers and fight with Kobe."

    "Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers, let's put them aside for now." Zhang Kong thought for a while. He really didn't want to experience this annoying team battle. Otherwise, he could stay and compete with James for leadership. Zhang Kong  He believes that with his own strength, if he really wants to compete with James, he may not lose.

    "In addition, after I went through the screening, the only teams suitable for transfer are the Chicago Bulls, Washington Wizards, and Miami Heat. Miami and Chicago are both big cities that attract a lot of attention. Washington is the capital and has received a lot of attention.  Also extremely high.¡±

    "These teams are indeed good." Zhang Kong nodded and said, as for the strength of the team, he didn't care much.  On the contrary, he feels that the worse the team's own strength, the more beneficial it is to him.  He knows his abilities well, and he can be sure that no matter which team he goes to, as long as the head coach establishes his core position, he will be able to bring about earth-shaking changes to that team.

    In this way, the worse the team's original strength is, the more it can highlight its own abilities!  As for the championship, as long as the management doesn't be stupid and is willing to build a team around themselves, championship contention is a sure thing.

    "Then I'll leave all this to you." Zhang Kong took a breath and said: "I am concerned about the Eastern Conference finals and the upcoming finals. After this season, I will definitely leave the Cavaliers, and I will definitely leave the Cavaliers."  Winning the championship this season. In addition, please help me organize a press conference. Now that this matter has been exposed, I have been waiting for so long to let him cool down according to your instructions. Now, it is time  It¡¯s time for me to end the drama out there.¡±

    "I understand, boss." Andy Miller nodded and said: "If nothing unexpected happens, the press conference will be scheduled two days before the Eastern Conference Finals. I will try my best to make arrangements for the media present. But  Boss, some radical media in Cleveland will definitely get involved, and I won¡¯t be able to stop them all. When the time comes"

    ¡°I can solve these problems by myself when the time comes.¡±
