Chapter 665: Anti-fan carnival day, three people fishing trip
"Stephen Curry's key is from far away! The fatal blow seals the victory!"
"This is the domineering power that the current three-point king should have! The era of three-pointers has been revealed!
"
"5 rebounds, 5 blocks, 4 assists and 2 steals in a single game! The best aerial scorer in active service is born!"
"Congratulations to Wang Zelin. After this campaign, he will surpass Kobe Bryant's 50 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals this season, ranking second in the history of playoff scoring! Second only to Michael Jordan's 63 points in a single game!
"
The day after the game, Curry's key winning goal and Wang Zelin's 51-point score in a single game became the two hottest topics on major social media platforms.
But in the end, Curry scored 39 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds. Especially at the last minute, Curry scored 6 points with a super long three-pointer and a three-pointer after being fouled from outside. He became a favorite among the media and fans.
The one you admire.
After all, the rule of thumb in the basketball world has always been "winner takes all." If the Warriors finally won the game, then Curry, who led the Warriors to win, should naturally accept the flowers and applause from the outside world.
Looking back at the last single game, this one, Wang Zelin, who had explosive output for two consecutive games but was unable to lead the team to victory and finally suffered two consecutive losses in the series, could only become the biggest target of the media after the game.
After World War I, Wang Zelin got a nickname - "Brush" thanks to ESPN's reports!
The derogatory term "brush", which is obviously discriminatory and derisive, has appeared on Wang Zelin for the first time in the past three years.
At the same time, voices about "Curry is more worthy of MVP" are gradually emerging across the Internet.
Wang Zelin is not very satisfied with this nickname.
But there is no way, he has been showing himself as a winner in the past two seasons.
He reached his peak in his rookie year, knocking Howard out of the top center position in one fell swoop. In the playoffs, he even led the team to the Western Conference Finals.
Although they unfortunately lost to the Spurs 1:4 in the end and were unfortunately eliminated, they also fell in the conference finals, which meant that they were one of the two strongest teams in the Western Conference that year.
For the Blazers, an overly young team, that year was definitely a success!
Needless to say, in the second year, Wang Zelin first won the honor of Double Team MVP in one fell swoop, and even went all the way through the playoffs to win the season's NBA championship!
This made Wang Zelin leap from one of the new generation players to one of the top five players in the league, becoming a superstar and the future number one player in the league in the eyes of the public!
A large part of the reason why there are all kinds of monsters and monsters coming out of the outside world now is because Wang Zelin's light has been too brilliant and dazzling in the past two seasons. Except for the little tidbits that the fans love to hear, he is on the court.
It was basically impeccable.
Until now, on the stage of the Western Conference Finals, it was Wang Zelin who tried his best on both ends of the offense and defense but still lost two games to the Warriors. The total score of the series came to 1 to 2 behind. Countless fans believed that this was the best time to criticize Wang Zelin.
finally come!
Weren't you crazy before?
Now that we are about to lose the series to the Warriors, why don't we continue to be crazy?
What about the promised title defense? This is the result!?
Overnight, a wave of public opinion surged towards Wang Zelin!
In the depictions of various anti-fans, Wang Zelin seems to be a super villain with bad morals, bad qualities, and no good qualities. In some people, even breathing is a sin for him.
That’s outrageous!
However, the sunspots seem to have forgotten that even if they lose this game, even if the outside world is not optimistic about the Trail Blazers, even now, the winning rate between the Trail Blazers and the Warriors has changed from 63 to 45…
But the fact is that the Trail Blazers are only trailing the Warriors 1:2 now, and they have not lost the series directly 1:4.
They seem to be happy a little too early!
Moreover, they too underestimated the self-regulation ability of the defending champion players.
…
…
On May 25, the coaching staff did not arrange training tasks. Instead, they held a team meeting and left the time to the players.
The content of the meeting was the same, just changing the bowls of chicken soup.
At this time, the help that outsiders can provide is limited. If you want to truly complete the adjustment, you have to rely on the players themselves.
After the morning meeting, the whole team finished their daily training with a lot of worries. Wang Zelin rarely rejected Jokic's request to stay for additional training and went back first.
After returning home, Wang Zelin remembered the conversation he had with Garnett after the game last night. He first asked the Cantonese chef to prepare a meal, then picked up his cell phone and called Lillard.
"Hey Damien, are you home?"
"On the way, soon."
On the other end of the phone, Lillard replied.
"Since we haven't arrived yet, let's take a look. How about we come to my house today to get together? I've had someone prepare the beef brisket in clear soup that you praised so much after you tasted it last time."
Wang Zelin invited.
"...Okay, I'll be there in a minute."
The sudden invitation was obviously beyond Lillard's expectations, but he still readily agreed.
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
After hanging up the phone.
Wang Zelin called Aldridge again. After the latter was stunned for a moment, he finally agreed to the invitation.
About ten minutes later, the roar of a car was heard outside the door. He opened the door and took a look, oh, what a coincidence, the two of them arrived at the same time.
Looking at the two people who were stunned, Wang Zelin urged: "Why are you still standing there? Come in quickly."
Hearing the sound, Lillard and Aldridge looked at each other, smiled, and walked toward Wang Zelin together.
…
…
"King, why did you ask us to come here? It can't be just for a meal!"
After drinking and eating, Lillard was the first to ask questions.
Seeing this, Aldridge put down his napkin and looked over.
Wang Zelin's eyes flashed and he revealed the real reason: "Let's go fishing!"
"ah!"
"fishing?"
The two teammates were a little confused when they heard it, and Nick Young suddenly became possessed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then, seeing Wang Zelin get up and take out three sets of fishing equipment from the room next to him, Lillard asked speechlessly:
"Man, are you serious?"
"Haha, except for LaMarcus, neither of us has ever fished before entering the NBA. Why don't we all go and experience the feelings of the little blacksmith in Milan at this time."
Aldridge, who was inexplicably shot on the side, said weakly: If he could, he wouldn't want to go fishing in the offseason in the past few years!
It wasn't that I wasn't strong enough then, but now I am.
Besides, do you really think that NBA stars’ vacation life only consists of fishing?
But in the end, Aldridge still didn't ask the second half of the question, and silently took action, taking the fishing rod from Wang Zelin's hand.
Come on!
Seeing that the thick-browed Aldridge had abandoned the revolution, Lillard reluctantly took the fishing rod and murmured carefully:
"If you have this intention, why not think about it during the offseason? We will release a new album and the fans will be waiting for it?"
However, someone seemed to turn a blind eye to this and walked straight out of the room with a fishing rod.
…
…
As a famous fishing city, Portland, since the Bonneville Power Administration launched a reward program (as long as someone catches a large white fish, a reward of 5 to 8 meters will be awarded), every year on May 1st There will be countless people who come here because of its reputation and become the local "big white fish hunters".
Today, two semi-cute new anglers were welcomed near the Snake River.
Two refer to Wang Zelin and Lillard, who have never experienced fishing, and the other refers to Aldridge, who claims to have limited skills.
The three of them attracted the attention of many tourists as soon as they got out of the car. They were already standing tall.
Soon, someone recognized the three of them and shouted excitedly. As a result, his voice almost caused public outrage.
After all, the real purpose of many people fishing is to seek peace and quiet, and there are very few people who truly make a living from fishing.
After all, the old base of the Air Force is there.
On a May day, the sun was shining brightly, and the three of them were dressed very coolly. Wang Zelin wore gray pants and a white shirt, unbuttoned to reveal his strong chest and abdominal muscles; Aldridge was dressed in gray; Lillard was wearing a colorful summer suit. Wearing a beach suit and big sunglasses, those who didn't know better thought he was here for surfing.
After finding a relatively quiet location, the three of them took out a small bench, sat down, and started fishing.
"LaMarcus, I don't know much about fishing. Please give me some advice."
"Me too!"
"Well... fishing is actually very simple."
After discovering that Wang Zelin, who invited him to fish, was not prepared at all, Aldridge smiled helplessly, and then taught the two of them step by step how to mix bait, make nests, and cast the line.
When Wang Zelin and Lillard went fishing for the first time, they both found it very simple. Basically, they just waited for the fish to take the bait and then pulled the line.
Besides, their fishing rods and baits are very valuable, absolutely high-end products. As long as you successfully throw the line out, are you still worried about not catching fish?
At first, Aldridge was still having fun watching the two people's clumsy line-throwing movements.
But after a while, he was completely dumbfounded.
Soon, Wang Zelin pulled up a big fish. It was quite big, weighing two or three kilograms.
Wang Zelin smiled and said: "Not bad, a good start!"
"Hey, mine seems to be moving too."
At this time, Lillard also found that his fishing rod had power.
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and close the line!"
Wang Zelin said excitedly.
Immediately afterwards, his fishing rod also moved.
"Wow, I may have caught another fish!"
…
During the next two hours, Aldridge watched with his own eyes as Wang Zelin and Lillard filled a bucket full of fish.
However, when he saw the only big white fish in his bucket, which was less than a pound, he suddenly fell into deep thought:
"Fake! Is this the novice protection period?"
After a busy afternoon, the two newbies did not catch the precious big fish, but they gained a lot.
As for the "old" master Aldridge, it's funny that he couldn't catch a small fish for a long time.
As evening comes and the night gets darker, there are still many people fishing and the coast is brightly lit.
However, the fishing trip of Wang Zelin and the others must end here, because there is still a big battle ahead for them tomorrow.
In the end, they kept the biggest fish as their harvest, put the other fish back into the river, and then drove back.
In the evening, the three of them tasted today's harvest while recalling the happy fishing time in the afternoon.
As we chatted, the topic inevitably returned to tomorrow's G4 game.
"Wang, I think I probably understand your intention in asking us to go fishing."
After finishing the salmon in front of him, Lillard leaned on the sofa, as if he understood something.
"Oh?" Wang Zelin paused, and when he looked up, he noticed that Lillard and Medici were looking at him with bright eyes.
"I have to say that fishing is really a leisure activity that is very suitable for relaxing the body and mind. It is hard to imagine that when I was having so much fun in the afternoon, I even forgot that there was a game to play tomorrow. Looking back now, it still feels incredible!"
After feeling emotional, Lillard smiled and said: "Wang, at first I thought that you would be the one with the biggest psychological burden after losing, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated your ability to withstand pressure. What's more, I didn't expect that.
Yes, have you ever thought of using fishing to help LaMarcus and I relieve our frustration and impatience after losing? You are indeed a natural leader!"
"Thank you, Wang. I won't lose to that guy who shakes his head in tomorrow's game!"
At the end of the sentence, Lillard's expression turned serious.
"And I!"
Aldridge, who is accustomed to being a silent listener for a long time, also made his voice heard.
"No, you are all wrong, it should be us!"
At this time, Wang Zelin said sonorously and forcefully.
At the same time, he was secretly having fun in his heart.
The ancients said that having an elder in the family is like having a treasure.
This is indeed true, and it is true that he specifically asked Garnett for advice after the game, teaching him how to effectively relax and decompress after losing.
But speaking of it, Garnett is probably also a good player at fishing. After all, before joining the Celtics, his performance in the last few years of the Timberwolves was indeed a bit shabby.
