In the visiting team's locker room, Lao Wang and others were also taking a medicinal bath.

"Old K, do you feel that the Mosaics are imitating the Bulls' style of play in these two games?" Kevin Johnson asked.

Lao Wang was startled, nodded and said, "It's really similar."

Then he reacted and said in surprise: "No, why do they want to imitate the Bulls? If the Bulls have Dameng and Barkley inside, can they use any opening tactics?"

He is self-aware. His single defense is top-notch at best. It has nothing to do with being at the top level. Assistance defense is even worse. With such defensive ability, Dameng actually doesn’t need to pull out at all. He just plays in the low post, which is more effective. Mosaic allows Dameng to pull out.

Fighting is basically a strategy of discarding the good and chasing the weak.

"Is it to control the rebounds?" Dan Marley said.

"But they didn't take advantage. We strengthened our defense on the outside. Old K's return speed is good now, and he protects the backcourt rebounds very well," Drexler said.

Danny Ainge analyzed: "Their lineup is not as good as ours, and their main shooting guard has been injured, so their strength is even worse. They should give it a try.

You see, after O'Neal was pulled out by Clifford Robinson, he was able to return to defense at first, but then he couldn't return when his physical fitness failed. Then the Bulls took the opportunity to rush in and get more offensive rebounds.

But Lao K’s physical fitness is better than O’Neal, and he can defend in time even if he hits behind. I think they won’t let Dameng come out to fight next.”

"It should be!"

"Mosaic doesn't have the Bulls' perimeter at all. Old K was pulled out. It's not easy for them to break through our perimeter. They rely more on Barkley to attack in the low post. They failed with this tactic, and they also lacked the low post of Da Meng.

Offensively, there are fewer offensive rebounds."

Several other people nodded.

At eleven o'clock, the post-match press conference for both teams began.

"Mr. Head Coach, the team has lost two home games in a row. Do you think there is something wrong with the tactics?" Over at Mosaic, a reporter pointed the finger at Tomjanovich from the beginning.

Tomjanovich formulated the opening tactic. The specific idea was to use this tactic to consume Lao K's physical energy and thus gain an advantage in the second half of the game. However, this goal has not been achieved now. Lao K has shown very good physical fitness.

The situation made him very disappointed.

But he has not completely lost confidence in this tactic, because the Bulls used this style of play to deal with another behemoth O'Neal, and the effect was very good.

In the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, O'Neal did not come out and was shot by Clifford Robinson.

In the second game, O'Neal came out, and the penalty area was blown up by Jordan and Pippen. His own physical energy was also greatly consumed by frequent running.

The only problem now is that Old K is physically stronger than O'Neal, so his tactical purpose has not been achieved.

The reason why he hasn't lost confidence in this tactic is that he thinks that Old K's physical fitness should be about the same. If he persists, or in the second half of the series, Old K's physical problems will arise, and then Mosaic will have the advantage.

.

But now he wants to take a gamble. If he loses, Mosaic will probably be swept away. If he wins, once the old K's physical fitness is exhausted, Mosaic will have a chance to turn defeat into victory.

Facing reporters' questions, he didn't want to reveal his thoughts, so he said perfunctorily: "In terms of tactics, we will make adjustments. I know what you want to say, but the team has the team's considerations. We are not as good as the lineup."

If you are facing an opponent, you can only try your best."

When the lineup was mentioned, some local reporters also lamented in their hearts, and those who wanted to accuse Tomjanovich also kept their mouths shut.

However, a reporter still asked Dameng this question. It was a New York Times reporter. He asked: "Hakim, do you like to spread tactics? Do you think this tactic is conducive to the team's offense?

"

Dameng certainly knew the team's tactical purpose. Although he didn't like this tactic, this was not the time to have a conflict with the head coach. He thought for a while and said:

"This is a series. Although we have lost two games, I think things will turn around in the following games. When the lineup is not as good as our opponents, everything is very difficult. We will implement the tactics arranged by the coaching staff well.

.”

He made some vague talk, which probably meant that the tactics were arranged by the coaching staff and we just have to execute them. If you have any questions, don’t ask me. The responsibility is not mine, and then he shut up.

The next day, at noon on the 26th, the Suns and Mosaics arrived in Phoenix one after another.

Barkley made an appointment last night, and Lao Wang would treat him to lunch today, so after getting off the plane, he handed his luggage to his teammates, and Dameng and Dameng were waiting at the airport to meet Lao Wang, Kevin Johnson and the others, and then the wife group

Also arrived, a large group of people rushed to K martial arts gym.

Lao Wang had made arrangements before leaving in the morning. The place to eat was arranged at the K Martial Arts Hall, where there were many people to help.

He not only invited Lightning and the others, but also the entire team and the coaching staff. He also invited Zhang Lili and his group, plus the brothers from the martial arts school, there were sixty or seventy people.

Fortunately, there are enough tables in the martial arts hall. They are all long rectangular tables, the kind of tables in the army. They are made of wooden boards by myself and have not even been painted.

At the buffet, Tian Xiaofen prepared several large pots of vegetables. The portions were very generous. The stainless steel pots with a diameter of one meter were stacked on top.

Meat, a bowl of various fruits cut into cubes, and each person was given a rice bowl to eat as much as they wanted.

"..."

When they saw these five big pots, Dameng and the others were a little dumbfounded. Are they feeding animals?

“It smells so good!”

But smelling the tangy aroma of the vegetables, his mouth watered uncontrollably, and even he and Buckley's wife wanted to start immediately.

"What's this?"

Buckley asked, pointing to the pig's ears.

He had eaten at Lao Wang's house many times, but had never tasted this kind of food before, so he was a little curious.

"Pig ears." Lao Wang introduced.

"Pig ears?"

Buckley's voice changed, as if he had been castrated, and he was obviously surprised.

"Don't worry, it's not yours, your ears are still on top of your head." Lao Wang comforted.

"Haha..." Kevin Johnson and others laughed.

"Come on, come on, you're welcome!" Lao Wang greeted Buckley and others.

"Old K, how is your street doing?" Kevin Johnson asked casually while eating.

Lao Wang was stunned, not to mention that the current situation is good, the stores on Fengshen Street have been rented out, and the upstairs is almost fully rented, so there should be no loss.

Bai Changsheng contacted him a few days ago and suggested that he build a five-star hotel on the vacant land behind. There is a large shortage of high-end hotels in the capital. In addition, he can also build a high-rise commercial hotel. He is still considering it after returning to China.

Decide.

But the investment was too much. He had to invest all the money he earned every year. When would it end? He actually didn’t know what to do.

"That's it. Anyway, I don't want to make money within ten years, so I just keep investing money." He said with a frustrated look.

Kevin Johnson comforted: "Just treat it as a long-term investment. If it doesn't work, stop the loss in time."

"I'll think about it." Lao Wang nodded quickly.

Next to him, Yu Feihong wanted to kick Lao Wang and stop his losses in time? Has this man who only thinks about muscles had his brain kicked by a donkey?

In the two years since he bought Fengshen Street, house prices in the capital have increased by 80%, and the price of commercial land has tripled. In a few years, he can make a lot of money from just that piece of land.

Can you still lose money?

Her father told her many times that even if Wang Tiejun's Fengshen Street, which covers an area of ​​160 acres, is left alone without a penny invested, in ten years' time, with the development of the capital, its value will be immeasurable. Her father

I just specialize in real estate, how can I be wrong?

Just after lunch, Hawksman called and said: "Old K, the Knicks contacted me and hope to trade Ewing for you. What do you mean? If you go to New York, your business value can be doubled.

.”

"Do you want me to come over?"

Lao Wang is not surprised by the Knicks' behavior. The media has already had such news.

"As an agent, of course I hope you can go to a big city to play, but it has to be your own decision," Hoxman said.

"No, I don't like Knicks fans," he said.

"ok."

Hawksman didn't try to persuade him any more, but asked again: "What about the Lakers?"

"Lakers?"

Lao Wang hesitated for a moment and said: "It's still the same idea as before. If the Suns give me a satisfactory contract, I will stay."

"OK, I understand." Hoxman said.

"What's going on?"

After hanging up the phone, he found that everyone was looking at him strangely.

"Old K, the Knicks want to trade Ewing for you?" Kevin Johnson asked.

He nodded, and Buckley immediately asked, "Then why didn't you agree?"

"Am I crazy?"

Lao Wang looked disgusted and said: "Look at Ewing's treatment in the Knicks. He is often booed by his own fans. I don't want to go there."

"Old K, with your current status and influence, you can earn at least 10 to 20 million US dollars more a year there. The Knicks will definitely give you a 100 million yuan contract. I support you to go to New York." Dameng persuaded earnestly.
