Chapter 324 O'Neal: If Feilong and I Join Forces, We Will Guarantee 10 Consecutive Championships.

At a certain hotel, O'Neal asked Kobe to go to the beach with him. The beaches in New York are still very good, and you might have an affair.

The two hit it off and were about to leave the hotel when they were blocked by several reporters and they had to accept an interview.

"Shaq, last night Nelson said he was going to trade Ewing for you in 1996, but he ended up being fired. Would you be willing to come to the Knicks at that time?" a reporter asked.

O'Neal said in surprise: "Damn it, why didn't I know? Otherwise now I would be the boss of the Knicks and Feilong would be my younger brother. I would eliminate Jordan three times in the Eastern Conference Finals. Now I am playing in the Finals. I will do it right away." It’s time to defend the dynasty. I even dare to say that Feilong and I will join forces to guarantee ten consecutive championships.”

Kobe covered his face. If you say this, aren't you afraid of being scolded by Lakers fans? And, do you think Feilong can be your little brother?

Nelson's words really aroused some discussion.

Magic Johnson also accepted an interview. When asked about the news, he said: "If O'Neal really went to the Knicks, Feilong had just joined the Knicks at that time, and his strength was far less than it is now, and O'Neal was reaching his peak. Therefore, the team will definitely have O'Neal as the core, and he will be the new core after Ewing.

As for Feilong, he might choose to leave the Knicks after he grows up, right? I think this is the most likely scenario, he won't be O'Neal's little brother.

Of course, they may work together for one year and win a championship, and then Feilong will choose to leave.

But after leaving, I think it will be the Knicks that I regret, because the performance of Feilong's team will definitely be better than that of O'Neal, and the Knicks will become the mortal enemy of Feilong's new team. "

Jordan also accepted a phone interview at the hotel. He said: "If O'Neal and Feilong are on the same team, it is a kind of cheating. One dominates the inside and the other dominates the outside. Other teams will not have a chance at all. Their combination is better than O'Neal and Feilong. The combination of the postman is even more terrifying, which will seriously affect the balance of the alliance.

Of course, if that happens, it will be the Knicks' luck, and they are likely to win ten consecutive championships.

But I don’t think that situation will happen, because with Feilong’s personality, he won’t be subordinate to others for a long time. If the Knicks don’t let him be the core, he will definitely choose to leave. "

Zhao Dong also received a call from a reporter from the New York Sports News. He said: "I have known about this for a long time. I don't have too many ideas. It is just a trading idea. It has already died in the cradle.

Of course, if the transaction is really successful,

O'Neal became the core of the new generation. My position was power forward at that time, and we could really sweep the league.

But I started to move to the outside in the second half of that season, and I started to control the ball, just like Kobe now, and that would cause some conflicts between me and O'Neal.

Because I control the ball, the first choice will not be to pass the ball to O'Neal, but my own offense, which will create a conflict between me and him.

Having said this, I would like to remind the Lakers, between O'Neal and Kobe, the situation I mentioned is likely to occur in the future. "

Lindsay went home in the afternoon and said that there was a top party in the financial world that evening. Only the top investment banks on Wall Street and some large funds like Storm were eligible to attend, and asked Zhao Dong to accompany her.

The initiator of the party was Soros, a financial speculator whom the two knew well.

"Aiweier, does he know that we sniped him in Hong Kong City?" Zhao Dong asked curiously.

"It should have been found out. Even if Mrs. Dorisa helped me cover up such a large capital transfer, he could still find traces if he wanted to check it. Besides, our storm successfully bargained for the bottom, and the time of intervention was at that time. You don't need to check to know that at that time We’re the ones doing the long side,” Lindsay laughed.

Zhao Dong nodded and said, "When do you think he will take action against the storm?"

Lindsay pondered for a moment and said: "According to various information analysis, the main funds of dozens of investment funds and quantum funds under him are now in the stock market and futures market. He has no ability to deal with us."

"You have to consider his background." Zhao Dong reminded.

Lindsay nodded, understanding.

Behind Soros is Wall Street. During the Asian financial crisis, he was just a knife standing in front of the stage. Behind him was the support of many financial giants on Wall Street.

Lindsay said thoughtfully: "The stock market has soared four times in the past two years, and the asset prices in the United States have also soared several times. The market value of our New York jet has also increased several times. It is no longer cost-effective to buy assets in the United States. When prices rise, The most important thing is to sell goods.

Husband, according to what you said, now is the best opportunity to leave the United States. Not only us, but also the best opportunity for the American manufacturing industry to leave the United States. "

Zhao Dong nodded and smiled: "Yes, they can sell off the assets in the United States at several times the price two years ago, and then go to build cheap factories overseas. The asset prices there are very low, the labor is very low, and the cost may be higher than in the United States. Several times lower. Therefore, this surge in U.S. stocks has pushed up asset prices, and the final result is that the outflow of U.S. manufacturing will officially begin."

Lindsay smiled and said: "So after we withdrew from the US stock market, we invested our funds in domestic industries. The domestic financial industry was not open, so Soros would have no chance to deal with us."

"That's it. Our investment bank was established in Hong Kong City to avoid the control of Wall Street." Zhao Dongdao.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Zhao Dong accompanied Lindsay to the party.

At the party, he met Soros.

In addition to Soros, dozens of Wall Street's most famous financial tycoons, and even World Bank President James David Wolfensohn, attended the party.

Everyone here can stir up a storm in the financial market, and their combined power can even influence the world.

Even Soros, the party initiator, is inconspicuous among this group of people. More than half of them have a higher status in the financial world than him, or even much higher than him.

But people like Soros have no interest in him. In the eyes of the world, he is just a superstar sports star and is not important at all.

And this is what he pursues, because as a Chinese, if he is exposed to the eyes of Wall Street, the consequences will be unpredictable, so he must not let outsiders know that he is actually the person behind the storm fund.

"Mrs. Lindsay, it's an honor to see you here. You are so young! There has never been anyone like you on Wall Street."

Soros came over with a wine glass, staring at Lindsay with sinister eyes, but his tone was very emotional.

"Mr. Soros, thank you for your hospitality. This is a very nice party." Lindsay smiled.

"This is the second time we have met. Last time you caused us to lose more than 20 billion US dollars. Many people were impressed by you."

Soros said suddenly.

Lindsay was startled, then smiled and said: "It's just different choices. I believe we will have a chance to fight."

Soros suddenly said something unexpected: "Why don't you want to cooperate?"

Lindsay was startled again and glanced at Zhao Dong, who didn't say anything. Then she said: "Of course we can cooperate if there is a chance."

"For example?" Soros asked aggressively.

After all, Lindsay was too young and had insufficient experience. She didn't know how to answer at this time, so she looked at Zhao Dong again.

Zhao Dong had to stand up at this time, but he only reminded him and said in Mandarin: "Aiweier, ask him to short U.S. stocks together."

Lindsay was startled, and she was so smart that she instantly understood what Zhao Dong meant.

Soros, on the other hand, couldn't understand Zhao Dong's common words and looked at the two of them with some confusion.

Lindsay said to Soros at this time: "Mr. Soros, I am optimistic about the future of the U.S. stock market. Why don't we cooperate..."

Having said this, she pondered for a moment.

Soros nodded slightly. He is also optimistic about US stocks now. Even if they have quadrupled in two years, he continues to be optimistic. Almost all of his funds are in US stocks and futures markets.

“…short U.S. stocks.”

Lindsay finally finished her sentence.

"What?"

Soros almost bit his tongue. The contrast between these words was too great, wasn't it?

His loss of voice attracted the attention of the people around him, and they all looked over.

"Are you crazy?!" Soros stared at the forest track.

Lindsay smiled and said: "If it succeeds, you and I will make a huge profit."

"No way!"

Soros said categorically: "The Asian economy is now in a mess, and funds from the world's financial markets are now pouring into Wall Street. There is no basis for shorting U.S. stocks. You are delusional."

"I don't think so." Lindsay shook her head firmly.

This conversation between the two attracted the attention of the people around them, and they all gathered around.

"Mrs. Lindsay wants to short U.S. stocks. What do you think?" Soros simply asked the question.

"Is she crazy?"

"Mrs. Lindsay, what is your reason?"

Most people were silent and only a few of the lowest status spoke.

Lindsay glanced at everyone, including the president of the World Bank. She glanced at Zhao Dong, and then said: "The reason why I am bearish on the market outlook is that there is no permanent rise."

"Ha ha……"

"She is too young. Maybe it is just good luck that has allowed the storm to develop to its current scale. I think if she continues like this, the storm will collapse sooner or later."

"The storm is not far away from closing down."

"I would bet there will be a lot of redemptions on the Storm, forcing the Storm to cash out significantly."

Those with the lowest status laughed and spoke with great disdain.

Others, looking at Lindsay, had a vague look in their eyes, revealing a predation aura. Storm controls one percent of the market value of the U.S. stock market, which is a big piece of fat.

The total amount of funds that the dozens of people here can control has even reached trillions of dollars. They even control this market. They invented all the derivatives in this market. If they say it can rise, then can rise, their combined power can even influence the country's policies.

It’s not that they don’t believe what Lindsay said. The U.S. stock market is bound to fall, but they believe it won’t be in the near future.

Because they are the masters here, the rise and fall of the world's financial markets must be obeyed by them. All financial storms are caused by them, and they decide everything.

An hour later, Lindsay and Zhao Dong left the party.

Because there were bodyguards in the car, the two of them could only chat. When they got home, they talked about what had just happened.

"The bait has been put down, it just depends on whether they can take the bait." Zhao Dong said with a smile.

"If they bite, we can speed up the evacuation and the cost of evacuation will be smaller." Lin Dao said.

"It doesn't matter if you don't bite. We will evacuate as usual, then dissolve the funds under Feng Feng and start a new business in the port city." Zhao Dong said.

No. 10, G2 game of the finals.

Morning, Los Angeles Lakers headquarters.

"Really?"

Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Jerry Westen murmured.

This is the New York sports uniform. Above is the content of Zhao Dong’s phone interview yesterday.

"Will O'Neal and Kobe have conflicts?"

He thought about Kobe's character and his style of play. Putting aside his personality, Kobe was a shooting guard, the ball was in his hands, and offense must be the first choice. Then there might really be a conflict between him and O'Neal. The situation mentioned by Zhao Dong.

"We should find a better point guard to control the ball. Kobe asked him to learn from Jordan to play without the ball. Jordan is his idol, so he should be willing. It would be great if the Bulls collapse and get Kidd, then No more headaches.

By the way, the Knicks' Billups is also playing well now. With Feilong's organizational ability, he is not needed at all. Maybe he can be found. "

Jerry West started to use his brain and make some plans for the rainy day.

In the evening, the G2 battle begins.

In this game, Popovich changed the first point of attack.

Since Duncan's rookie season, he has taken more shots than Robinson, and this season he averaged 6.1 more shots per game than Robinson. He is truly the Spurs' first offensive point.

But in this game, David Robinson once again became the Spurs' first offensive point.

The Spurs used a low-post double-tower tactic throughout the game, with Duncan containing Zhao Dong and Robinson launching the attack.

Nelson still sent out the starting lineup for the G1 game. First, he defended Robinson. After being beaten, Fordson defended and was also beaten.

Then he mobilized his troops and sent Ben to replace Fordson, but Ben was also unable to guard Robinson and was defeated.

Once Zhao Dong assists in defense on the weak side, the Twin Towers immediately play efficient low-post cooperation and attack the basket at the same time, so that their height advantage under the basket is fully utilized.

The disadvantage of the Knicks' lack of height inside was exposed. It was so big that it was difficult to support alone at a high point. Ben and Fordson were only 201 centimeters tall, and were overwhelmed by the Spurs' twin towers.

Even if veteran Willis is deployed, it will be difficult to stop the Spurs' twin towers' advantage at the basket.

This change of the Spurs allowed them to develop strong low-post offensive firepower that they did not have in the G1 game, which can be said to have defeated the Knicks, who had a strong defense.

In this battle, the Spurs twin towers showed the strength to kill Shaquille O'Neal in the Western Conference Finals.

On the offensive end of the Knicks, Nelson still uses the high and low two-tower tactics.

But in this game, the Spurs strengthened their defense against Da Zhi and used extremely fierce defense to reduce his efficiency. Once his efficiency dropped, his ability to contain the Spurs was gone. In this way, the Spurs began to double-team in the low post. Zhao Dong.

The Spurs let go of one person, such as Ben and Fordson, when they were on the court, and then double-teamed Zhao Dong, using the Bulls' defensive tactics in G3 of the Eastern Conference Finals, which was outside the paint area and outside the paint. The edge double-teamed Zhao Dong and cut off his passing route in time, forcing him to make a strong shot amid multiple double-teams.

In this way, Zhao Dong's field goal percentage was only 51.6%, which was slightly lower than the 53% in G3 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Such low post efficiency is not enough.

At the same time, because the Spurs tried their best to double-team Zhao Dong in the low post, the Knicks were unable to penetrate from the outside and were not efficient enough on the outside.

In the end, 98:90, the Knicks lost their second home game.

Zhao Dong made 16 of 31 shots and 12 of 14 free throws in 48 minutes. He once again scored 44 points, but this time he scored for nothing.

The Spurs' twin towers scored 63 points together, with a shooting percentage of 55%. It was not very high despite the Knicks' full defense, but they still defeated the Knicks with slightly higher efficiency.

On the 11th, the media began to report on the game.

Many media began to laugh at the Knicks, Zhao Dong, and even Nelson.

However, the New York media still held the bottom line and did not join the ranks. Instead, they spoke for the Knicks.

But if the Knicks lose another game, I'm afraid these New York media will also criticize the Knicks.

At 11 a.m. on the 11th, the Knicks boarded a special plane bound for San Antonio.

On the plane, Old Nelson and Xiao Fan continued to study the tactics of the G3 battle.

After losing their second home game, the coaching staff was under great pressure. They barely slept last night and all of them had black eyes.

Zhao Dong was not sleepy, nor was he listening to music. He was half lying on his seat thinking about last night's game.

The Spurs were very resolute in double-teaming him last night. Even if he was pulled out, they would double-team him.

And the people who were left open, such as Ben and Fordson, have limited offensive capabilities and are not efficient in hitting open shots.

Of course, Duncan also used his height, wingspan, and defensive skills to greatly restrict his passing. He made a total of 5 turnovers last night, 4 of which were passing errors.

So after tasting the sweetness last night, the Spurs will definitely continue to do this in tomorrow's G3 game. How should the Knicks play?

Yesterday, Da Zhi got a lot of openings when he started in the high post, but Malikros' fierce defense knocked Da Zhi down several times. Da Zhi's hands felt a great impact, causing him to be restrained in the high post. His strength declined, and then Marikros frequently came down to double-team him. This was also one of the important reasons for the loss last night. The high-low twin tower strategy failed.
