The Trail Blazers finally defeated the Wizards on the road with a big score.
When Wang Zelin's statistics for this game were displayed on the large LED screen, the Wizards players and surrounding fans were all stunned in place.
5 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 blocks and 2 steals, standard 4x5 data!
After the game, even though he was beaten a bit badly today, Wall still showed the style of a team leader and came to hug Wang Zelin.
"Hey, I still lost to you! This feeling is so disappointing!"
Wall looked depressed and said with a sad face.
However, what he didn't expect was that Wang Zelin actually said this:
"Haha, don't worry about just one defeat. You'll get used to it if you lose more in the future!"
After saying that, Wang Zelin quickly turned around and walked into the players' tunnel, leaving Wall standing there stupidly, unable to recover for a long time.
It feels like running away after loading 13, the needle is good!
…
At the post-match press conference.
"John, what do you think is the main reason for today's defeat?"
Reporters really hope that Wall will complain about the incompetence of his teammates. Apart from Wall, even Bill, the second best performer today, scored 16 points, but his 7-for-18 shooting rate is really eye-catching. As a comparison, Bill
Today's shots were only 4 fewer than Wall's.
As a result, Wall scored a full 10 points more, and the gap in efficiency between the two sides was clear at a glance.
This is true for Bill, not to mention other teammates.
Therefore, reporters who were not too concerned about the matter found Wall who had lost the game.
But what they didn't expect was that Wall didn't even mention a word about other teammates. He clasped his hands and said with a very unwilling expression, "I failed to stand up at the critical moment, and Wang stood up. This is
The key to our loss today.”
After saying that, Wall left the scene with a cold face.
And the other side.
Wang Zelin, who was elected the best player, also highly praised Wall: "I like John very much. I think he is the best defender in the Eastern Conference now. It is very exciting to play against him..."
The reporters never expected that the post-match interview would turn into an exchange of blows between the bosses of both teams.
…
…
Go back to the locker room and pack your things.
"Don't look at me like that, I really want to keep a low profile! But there's no way, my strength doesn't allow it!"
Wang Zelin looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle, put his hands behind his hands and sighed.
Lillard and Matthews on the side looked at Wang Zelin's pretense...
Blanch!
The two looked at each other and said: We shouldn't believe his lies. Now we are better and have become green leaves.
Batum, who was not far away, rolled his eyes, and then said directly to his teammates: "Guys, Wang said he would invite the whole team out to have fun, and he will pay for all the expenses tonight..."
Wang Zelin vomited blood!
If you really don’t pretend to be 13, you will easily get struck by lightning if you pretend to be cool.
These dozen or so tough guys are going to eat the poor man's rhythm.
…
…
In a happy atmosphere, the Trail Blazers achieved an incredible record of 39 wins and 7 losses. They were only one win away from becoming the first team in the league to win 40 games in the regular season!
At the same time, ESPN experts also raised a question.
"Next, who can stop the crazy expansion of this fully-staffed Portland Army?"
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, no one knows the answer. Because now the Portland Trail Blazers have strong troops and talents, and they seem to be able to fear no team!
…
When Wang Zelin woke up in the hotel the next day, he found that his phone had been bombarded with text messages.
Looking at the densely packed sender's name, it doesn't take much to figure out that it must be the various blessing text messages I received after winning the competition...
He simply ignored these messages. He understood everyone's good intentions, but those cookie-cutter blessings... he really didn't have the heart to reply to them one by one.
Instead of doing this, why don’t you think about it, who is this big white girl next to you?
It seemed like something terrible happened last night, but he couldn't remember it now.
hiss!
He remembered that the big white girl who was still sleeping holding one of his arms was called Salma, and she seemed to be a little model.
Looking at the other party's mature and beautiful face, Wang Daguan couldn't help but sigh.
Europeans and Americans are indeed very talented in this area. Last night he almost...
After getting up, he checked the time and saw that it was just past nine o'clock. After a brief wash, he went to the living room outside, checked his cell phone, and asked the hotel staff to deliver two breakfasts.
After a while, there was movement in the bedroom.
A few minutes later, Salma walked out, glanced at Wang Zelin charmingly, licked the white milk from her lips, walked over again, and leaned against Wang Zelin with ease.
"Wake up, there is another breakfast here, just served."
With the beauty in his arms, who was still playing with his mobile phone? Wang Zelin naturally put his hand on her.
Salma gave Wang Zelin a thoughtful look, stretched out her hand to take the unfinished half cup of pure milk on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.
"..." Wang Zelin was confused by this move and said quickly, "This is your share..."
Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly lowered his head.
A feeling of comfort came over, Wang Zelin enjoyed Salma's service and put down the phone completely.
…
Time flies.
Soon, after a day of adjustments.
On January 30, the Trail Blazers came to Cleveland.
"The strongest team in the East VS the strongest team in the West! This is the second time the two teams meet, who will have the last laugh?"
Before the game, countless media outlets had made a series of bizarre headlines.
Good guys, it’s time for the familiar preview of the finals again.
In the afternoon, the Cavaliers' away game against the Trail Blazers began.
As the end of the month approaches, the negative reactions to consecutive away games began to appear again.
The Trail Blazers played so well offensively in the last game, but this time, they started with a half-quarter score against the Cavaliers.
At the beginning of tonight's game, Wang Zelin's original intention was to let Matthews and Aldridge play a few more games to find out their touch.
After all, the two of them have just come back not long ago. A good performance against a weak team does not prove anything. Only when they have a stable offense against a strong team can they see their true competitive state.
The result was that Matthews hit all two three-pointers from the outside, and Aldridge continued to fail to open the scoring with multiple singles in the mid-range and low post.
At the beginning of today, Aldridge suffered a block from James, who was on defense. Not only did he feel average on the offensive end, but he was also useless on the defensive end. He was dunked twice by veteran Sean Marion.
Later, Wang Zelin saw that something was not right, and quickly opened fire and scored 5 points with penalties. Batum in the corner made a three-pointer. Together with Lillard, Irving who came out to the inside caused a foul and made two free throws.
In the middle, they only got 10 points.
In the first 6 minutes, the Trail Blazers took 12 shots and only scored 2 times!
Entering the official timeout, Matthews, who was in poor condition, was replaced, and Connett Lee was replaced in advance.
Sitting on the bench, reviewing James' performance in this half of the quarter, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Player: LeBron James
…
Overall score: 99 (superstar)
Additional note: This player is in a mysterious state that is difficult for the system to detect..."
Damn it!
He immediately spoke a beautiful Chinese language.
He knew the mysterious state of shit very well. He had seen it a few times before, and it was just a blast!
But the problem is that the player who exploded today is an old man in his thirties...
hiss!
It’s simply a valuable item!
From Wang Zelin's perspective, James' career has been criticized in many areas, but he does indeed deserve the title of era and superstar that Jordan said.
Although the old man was pretending to be 13 when he said this, as he said, among the players who entered the NBA in the 21st century, only James could become a superstar in the 1990s. Wang Zelin, who has the memory of later generations, firmly believes that this is not the case.
suspect.
It is precisely because he understands the terrifying nature of James that it is even more difficult for him to imagine how strong James will be when he enters the explosive state...
Back from the timeout, the Cavaliers have a combination of Irving, J.R. Smith, James, Shawn Marion, and Cousins.
The Trail Blazers sent a combination of Lillard, Connett Lee, Batum, Jokic, and Wang Zelin.
After much thought, Tristo decided to put Matthews and Aldridge, who were in average condition, back on the bench.
The current lineup adjustments made by the Trail Blazers have proven the feasibility of this lineup in the past period of time.
Lillard, Conlett Lee and Batum can provide sufficient fire support on the outside. When Jokic partners with Wang Zelin on the inside, Jokic has the ability to act as a high-position beacon to provide support, and can also allow Wang Zelin to direct more
Focusing on offense, he turned around and turned into a terrifying weapon at the basket.
Back on the court, the Blazers attack first.
Wang Zelin came to the basket, but Cousins couldn't defend him and was blocked behind him.
"here!"
Raising his right hand, Wang Zelin shouted towards Lillard.
Lillard missed a glance in James' direction and quickly lobbed the ball in.
As soon as he received the ball, James started quickly, drove to the basket, and teamed up with Cousins to double-team Wang Zelin.
But King Zelin was well prepared for this shot. As if there were springs under his feet, he rose from the sky and hit Cousins forward.
"boom!"
The ball was slammed into the basket. Cousins couldn't react in time and was knocked back one after another.
"ah!!!!"
Cousins, who flew out of the baseline, punched the basket angrily and yelled at Wang Zelin.
But Wang Zelin didn't respond. Su Yi was secretly happy in his heart, turned around and ran away.
After serving the ball, Cousins hurriedly started to chase after him.
Cavaliers attack.
James organizes from the outside.
"Give me the ball!"
Cousins was positioned deep and actively shouted to his teammates.
He took a look at the position of the Trail Blazers players and quickly gave the ball inside.
In the past half quarter, Cousins scored 4 points, only 2 points less than James. He is currently the Cavaliers' second-best player.
With the team still leading, James doesn't mind letting Cousins play for a while.
Yes, it's just play.
In his opinion, even though Cousins looks so big on the outside, he looks like a child who hasn't grown up yet on the inside.
When dealing with Cousins, James knows how to coax him. Sometimes he can even give himself some surprises after coaxing him well, so that he can be less tired on the court.
Cousins got the basketball, and fans throughout the Quicken Loans Arena cheered for him.
To this day, as Cousins still maintains average performance after changing teams, and with the traffic bonus brought by James, he has gradually become the second active center in the league after Wang Zelin.
"Title!
This is a bit like Wiggins, who later became an All-Star due to his popularity after joining the Warriors.
The only difference is that Wiggins was a bit of a coincidence at the time. After all, a small forward in the Western Conference was injured and disabled, so he had to be short and pick up the general.
But Cousins is different. Without Wang Zelin, a little butterfly, he really took off from this season, and in the next two years he became the strongest center in the league!
well, let's get back to business.
In fact, when it was detected before the game that Cousins' comprehensive rating had reached 87, Wang Zelin was only slightly shocked, but he still didn't take it to heart.
But after the opponent scored one after another under his defense in the first half of the quarter, he knew he couldn't underestimate "unhappiness."
Oh, no, judging from the current situation, I'm not happy. After the Cavaliers can win games all the time, they seem to be quite happy.
"Bang! Bang! Bang..."
Cousins began to hit from behind.
Even Wang Zelin, whose strength had reached the ceiling level, was still forced to take a step back.
There is no way, Cousins also has a strength of 95 now, and the gap in strength with him is not that big.
But he is not worried, because in his opinion, there are still loopholes in Cousins' actions.
Then, Cousins strengthened again, and Wang Zelin deliberately took a big step back, causing Cousins to almost fall.
After reacting, the moment Wang Zelin gave up his position, Cousins immediately turned around and prepared to stand up for a dunk.
But just when he took off, he found that Wang Zelin's palm completely covered the basketball, and he had no chance to dunk!
The purpose of Wang Zelin's step back was to induce Cousins to attack. In fact, secretly, he had already been waiting for the opportunity to prepare to block the shot.
Looking at the giant palm so close at hand, Cousins, who is out of the air, is still rising. If you can't avoid it, then be reckless!
"Snapped!"
But his attack was still unable to escape Wang Zelin's blocking range. With a hard press of his right palm, Cousins suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell down.
Looking again, the ball had been slapped out of bounds by Wang Zelin.
The referee didn't blow the whistle...
Wang Zelin's defense this time was a clean and neat block!
“Wuhu!!!!”
The moment Cousins fell to the ground and the ball was slapped away, all the Chinese fans in front of the TV were excited.
