(After I got home from get off work today, I didn’t have long to code. I thundered and cracked the computer network card. I changed to an external network card again. I took a long time to get it done. I’m sorry that it’s even late. This is the first chapter today.)

"I'll say it again. We have no disrespect for Lin Han, and we have no dissatisfaction with our team's performance after Lin Han left. Please don't understand some of the things we said out of context. This will be very difficult to accept."

"Lin Han is a very great player. We knew from the beginning that we had no change in this view whether before or after leaving. We also clearly knew that he could succeed no matter where he went to any place after leaving the team. So the so-called jealousy and hatred of the Jazz after seeing the Lakers succeeded. Even if the Lakers defeated the Jazz in this game fabricated by Lin Han, the Jazz would collapse due to such a situation, and such things would also not exist."

"Because you don't understand the relationship between us and Lin Han at all. I know very well that even if he left the Jazz, he definitely hopes that the Jazz can perform better, and will not be happy, jealous or hatred because of the Jazz's bad luck, success, and we are the same. When we traded Lin Han, we gave Lin full respect, we respect the team he wanted to go to, and we respect his decision to leave the team. He also respected the Jazz very much. After leaving, he never expressed any dissatisfaction with the Jazz. Don't forget that he is a Salt Lake City native. He grew up in Salt Lake City since he was a child, and his basketball was also the foundation in Salt Lake City. Even if he comes to Los Angeles now, this cannot change the reality that he is a Salt Lake City native. So, there is no problem between us, everything is your guess."

On February 28, 1995, at a pre-match press conference before the start of the Los Angeles Lakers' home game with the Utah Jazz, Jerry Sloan, the head coach of the Jazz and the new champion coach of the league. The Jazz head coach is in a somewhat bad situation. The team has been in a very bad state recently, and has changed from a solid top three position in the Western Conference to a game that if the Jazz cannot be defeated, it will be in a position or it may be in danger.

And more importantly, this team that only makes them in jeopardy is led by Lin Han. The Lakers, who claimed to be at the bottom of the league before the start of the season, would have given up the third place in the West if they were defeated by the Lakers in this game and gave up the third place in the West. No matter how high-sounding he said at this time, Lin Han was indeed a abandoned player who left the Jazz. When the Jazz made a choice, they did choose Stockton and Malone. Although Jerry Sloan really regretted Lin Han leaving now, he never regretted his previous choice because he knew. Given him a hundred chance, he would choose the latter between Lin Han, Malone and Stockton because this was determined by the Jazz's environment. When making the only choice, they could not have other choices.

However, although Jerry Sloan is very clear and the team's boss is very clear. Even the team's management is very clear, some people are not clear, such as some Jazz players, such as Jazz fans, and media reporters at this time, they will not know this. Just like why the Trail Blazers didn't choose Jordan back then, fans and reporters would not know that the Trail Blazers chose a young shooting guard named Drexler the year before the Jordan draft. This shooting guard can only play substitute for the Trail Blazers in the rookie season. They will not consider whether the Trail Blazers need Jordan. They are only willing to believe that the Trail Blazers will regret missing Jordan. In fact, whether the Trail Blazers regret it. Maybe, but if this team is given a chance to renege, they may still not choose Jordan, but will choose Jordan's teammate Sam Perkins or Barkley.

Of course, this is the choice of the Trail Blazers management. If you give them a chance, they may not choose Jordan, but for fans, even if they don’t give them a chance, they will say again and again that we once had the chance to get Jordan, but in the end we lost such an opportunity. Therefore, the Trail Blazers management, which was not wrong, became a synonym for idiots and stupidity in everyone’s dreams, and no one even cared whether this was right.

This is also the situation of the Jazz now. Others will not care why the Jazz traded Lin Han, nor what they traded Lin Han and what objective conditions were there. They only know that after leaving the Jazz, Lin Han played a season that far surpassed Malone and Stockton. At this time, Lin Han really led the Lakers to defeat the Jazz and eventually surpassed the Jazz in ranking. Then this deal is like after the Trail Blazers missed Jordan, Jordan killed all sides in the NBA, and Sam Bowie was directly scrapped after going to the Trail Blazers. This is a material with great hype value. For media reporters, they don’t mind hyping up a meme that Changhong has been more than 20 years or even longer. For Jazz fans, because of their yearning for Lin Han, they will be submissive.

I let go of the rationality in my heart and blindly follow the hype of these media. When they let go of their rationality, they are willing to say such a sentence on any occasion, "We could have left Lin Han's" is just like the sentence "We could have own Jordan" that is often said by the Trail Blazers fans now, "We could have own Jordan." This is a kind of comfort after being defeated by reality. Even if we know that this is fake, it is an illusion. Even if we add a special level, there will be no such possibility. However, these fans will still be willing to believe all this. This is just like Rockets fans who could have obtained Jordan even back then, but they will never say, "We could have obtained Jordan" like the Trail Blazers fans, because Rockets fans have not been defeated by reality, so they are still rational.

When a team meets a group of fans who have lost their rationality, this team is quite difficult, just like the Jazz team now. Every home game, Jazz fans shout Lin Han's name. They are holding up signs to ask the team to find Lin Han back. If Lin Han is not found, they will criticize the team's management. In addition to the team's boss, Old Miller, both Rayden and Sloan are almost driven crazy by fans. Although Scott Reeden is not a tough person, as the general manager of a championship team, Scott Reeden is also considered the top-middle-level talent among the NBA general manager.

Such a general manager would be frightened by the team's fans and hide in Phoenix and dare not go back. This would be aware of how crazy the Jazz fans are, and what made Jerry Sloan even more collapsed. Every time Lin Han showed kindness to the Jazz fans, it made these Jazz fans who were already in vain. Therefore, as the head coach of the Jazz, he even hoped that Lin Han would constantly scold him, Jazz, Malone and Stockton in the media, but what made Jerry Sloan extremely depressed was that Lin Han didn't do this. This simply destroyed his personality and his team!

"Mr. Sloan, Lin Han said in a previous interview with the media that although he has been on the right track in the Lakers and has got what he wants. But every time I see the Jazz, I feel very warm when I think about everything about him in the Jazz. Because there are teammates who have won the championship with him, and have praised Malone and Stockton's greatness more than once. At the same time, he also claims that his three-man combination with Malone and Stockton is the strongest trio in history. Is the relationship between the Jazz Big Three really that close? Has the Jazz ever thought of bringing Lin Han back to Salt Lake City?"

Just when Jerry Sloan was a little broken by Lin Han's sweet cannonballs. After a reporter from Salt Lake City who came to the Lakers with the team once asked this question, this damn made Sloan, who had always been introverted, curse!

Others don’t know the relationship between those three guys. As the team’s head coach, can he not know? Although he is a little confused about his performance in this year’s All-Star Game, he is still very clear. The relationship between Lin Han, Malone and Stockton can be described as incompetent. This is a life-and-death relationship. If he really wants to be as great as Lin Han said, he is willing to trade Lin Han and get Lin Han away except when he is crazy! However, even though he knows this, he can’t say it. Now the entire Utah state is in the vain of missing Lin Han and missing the invincible years in the past. If he dares to say that what Lin Han said is fake, he has added special stunts. He will not think of going back to Salt Lake City.

So, at this time, Jerry Sloan really hated Karl Malone, a cheating guy. If this guy hadn't been desperately speaking for the All-Star votes, he had also staged a hug of generals and ministers in front of the Jazz fans in the game. At that time, Malone had indeed gained a lot of benefits. Jazz fans did not boo him and continued to support him in his actions towards Lin Han, and he also voted for him. However, this unclear behavior like this has always tricked the Jazz until now. Now Malone and the Jazz can't cut with Lin Han, and have been completely kidnapped by such a relationship. Even at this time, Jerry Sloan was already suspicious that Lin Han was using such unclear relationship to deliberately mess up the Jazz.

At least, every time Lin Han shows goodwill to the Jazz, the Jazz will be in chaos!

Invite Lin Han back? This idea is good. Even if he and Rayden or Miller have never thought that Lin Han will leave. If Lin Han comes back, it is certainly OK, but their support does not mean that the Jazz can do this. At least Malone and Stockton are definitely unwilling to Lin Han to come back again, unless they get these two people away, but it is not so easy to get two such stars away? Moreover, Sloan and the Jazz cannot do this. If there is no need, if these two people don’t want to leave, the Jazz cannot trade these two people.

In this case, Lin Han is certainly impossible to come back. However, although he, Rayden and Miller know this very well, many players inside the team and Jazz fans outside the world are not clear about it. And the pain is that even though he knows it is impossible, he cannot say it explicitly.

"The Jazz is a great team, whether it is the Jazz last year or the Jazz this year, I'm glad that Lin Han can say that, because we know he is a great teammate. We have a lot of players, and the fans miss everything he has with the Jazz. But now their Lakers players are our current opponents. I think things will need to wait until after this game or after the season. As for the relationship between him and Carl and John, I think it should be quite interesting. The three of them have indeed pushed the Jazz's history to an incredible level, and that's why everyone missed that team, but if we can give us enough time, I think we can do better."

For Jerry Sloan, the most tragic and least-desired thing he wants to do now is to attend these press conferences. Whether it is before or after the game, he doesn't want to participate, because every time it is so painful, and there is more than just Jerry Sloan who feels this way.

Jerry Sloan is the representative of the Jazz. Many things cannot be said explicitly. There will be a big mess after he says it, but this is not the case with Malone and Stockton. They are players and are so miserable players who were cheated by Lin Han. It can be said that after this year's All-Star, these two big guys have lost their status in the NBA. The big guy system is a traitor. They don't look down on the newcomer system. In this case, the Jazz and they can be called real orphans of the NBA. Not to mention the West, even in the East, many people look down on these two. Although Lin Han and Jordan are the two most lonely superstars in the NBA, even Jordan and Lin Han still have some friends in the NBA. But Stockton and Malone are really miserable now.

When a player is so miserable, he always does something crazy. For example, when facing an interview recently, both Malone and Stockton said that he is not familiar with Lin Han and his relationship with Lin Han is average. Even when he was a teammate, the relationship between the three was quite bad. Malone even took the initiative to talk about some of the conflicts between him and Lin Han in the team.

Originally, Ma Long had realized that he had been kidnapped by Lin Han's sugar-coated shells and the "warm offensive". He had regretted the fact that he had reconciled with Lin Han for the sake of the All-Star votes. So now he is proactively provoking Lin Han and constantly talking bad things between him and Lin Han. If this is normal, based on his understanding of Lin Han, Lin Han would definitely stand up and break off diplomatic relations with him, then Jazz fans would give up the unrealistic idea of ​​getting Lin Han back.

Although doing this will make him fall into the crisis in Salt Lake City again, Malone no longer cares at this time. Even if Jazz fans hate him again, after a season or two, time will dilute everything. What should the Jazz be like? Lin Han will slowly become a passerby of the Jazz. Even if his votes in the All-Star votes still have not improved, he can't take care of that much, because as long as there are Barkley and Camp, his starting position in the All-Star Game is basically impossible, and now the All-Star has been controlled by Lin Han, and he has no intention of playing for Lin Han. There is no difference between playing a substitute and starting, and it may even be better for substitute.

So, he has been really talking wildly about Lin Han's bad words to provoke Lin Han, but what made Ma Long speechless was that after he said so many trash words to Lin Han, he was originally looking forward to Lin Han's rampage, but what Lin Han said was "We are our opponents now, and we can do everything on the court. Although I don't want to do this, I think Carl must be like this."

When he saw Lin Han's words in the newspaper, the Jazz's player was furious and furious. Who is the enemy of him on the court and a friend of him off the court? And when Ma Long still did not give up, he made a fuss about Lin Han's performance in recent times, and even cursed Lin Han about the scoring data that Lin Han cares most about, and never got 60 in the future, this is awesome, Lin Han actually agreed with his statement in an interview, and he was petrified at that time.

This guy's shamelessness made Ma Long no longer know what to say. He even thought about continuing to scold Lin Han after this game, but Stockton told him that even if he continued to scold Lin Han, Lin Han would say that even if this game ended, our competitive relationship this season has not changed and we will continue to compete until the end of the season. So everything Ma Long said was just a lie that "added stunts" for competition. Don't you believe it? Look at this year's All-Star Game, and then look at our passionate support.

And more importantly, the Jazz fans and the media in Salt Lake City, which had the greatest influence on Malone and Stockton, are absolutely willing to believe Lin Han's words rather than Malone's words, a broken but real dream and a beautiful but fake dream, especially when this false dream looks so real, everyone knows what their choice is.

So, when Malone realized that he could no longer get rid of Lin Han, the Jazz's leading player was really in a bad mood, because he knew very well that as long as Lin Han was stuck to him, the Jazz would never get rid of Lin Han's influence. Even as long as Jazz fans and media a little forget about Lin Han, Lin Han would say, I miss our invincible years so much. This move simply hits the Jazz fans' g-point. This damn 72 wins in the regular season and only loses one game in the playoffs. In such a perfect season, who can resist the temptation of not missing it!

As long as this is the case, it is impossible for him and Stockton to completely control the Jazz. When I think of this, even Stockton's brows have been frowning recently.

With Stockton's intelligence, how could he not know how to resolve such a situation? If before this season, the Jazz would have to beat the Lakers, such an embarrassing state would naturally be gone. If the first three games were not the Lakers winning three games in a row but they won three games in a row, then the Jazz fans' feelings for Lin Han are now sympathy rather than nostalgia, because Malone and Stockton proved that they were better than Lin Han.

But now they have lost three consecutive games to Lin Han. Even if they really beat the Lakers in this game, the effect may not be so obvious. Even if they continue to lose in this game, it is probably impossible for them to get rid of Lin Han's influence except to win the championship earlier than Lin Han!

After all, the Lakers were killed by Lin Han in a season, and it is impossible to wash away the result without a championship. If before the start of the season, both Malone and Stockton are quite sure of the championship. Even before the completion of the Barkley's trade, their confidence is quite great. But when Barkley's trade is completed, who can be so confident in front of the Rockets that we can win the championship this year?

This Rockets' deal puts a lot of pressure on the Lakers, but the biggest pressure is definitely from the Jazz! This is a pressure that almost makes Malone and Stockton despair!

"No matter what, you must not lose in this game, you must win, we can no longer afford to lose! We must defeat that hateful bastard!"

The situation of the Jazz is now quite bad by Lin Han. When this team still wants to get rid of everything about Lin Han, the team has been forced by Lin Han to have no choice. So when Malone said this in the hotel at this time, even Stockton nodded fiercely at this time!

They have no choice in this game!

Moreover, if the loss in the previous few games puts the Jazz under a lot of pressure now, but facing the Lakers now, the Jazz are not without a chance, but with great opportunities, because Lin Han has been in a bad state since the end of the game with the Spurs. In the last game with the Clippers, Lin Han played a super bad performance like 15 of 55 shots. You should know that forty blackshots are the second most ironshots in Lin Han’s career!

Although the American media did not treat Lin Han because of the Lakers' winning and Lin Han's 40+20 data, Lin Han's condition is now problematic, which everyone sees!

"The flip between us starts with the victory of this game!" (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
