Chapter 65 MVP

```

Ramsay and Gene Shue almost came to blows, and it certainly wasn't about the money in the bucket.

The relationship between the two had always been tense, with differing styles and schools of thought, having faced each other in the finals, argued last season, and this season they argued again on the sidelines in Washington.

Ramsay was anxious about the upcoming playoffs, particularly the health of his players, and when he saw Rick Mahorn enter the game with some overly aggressive moves, he believed it was intentional by Gene Shue.

He warned Gene Shue at courtside to have his players tone it down and to play a cleaner game.

Gene Shue was already in a bad mood, with his relationship with Charles Barkley having been strained all season.

This troubled Gene Shue, as he was devoted to nurturing Barkley, who he had worked with pleasantly during his rookie season.
