Chapter 103 Scarlet Bull(1/2)
Chapter 103 Blood Bull
The negative impact of Houston's absence still emerged.
Although Mo Mengchen increased his shots, he was not the kind of star player who was difficult to limit. His shots depended on running and teammates passed the ball, and lacked the ability to solve problems one-on-one.
Although Houston also relies on assists, if he is given space, he is quite sure to solve his opponent in a one-on-one situation.
In the 12 games that Houston missed, the Pistons scored 7 wins and 5 losses, still ranked sixth in the Eastern Conference.
For them, this is the best result, as Houston is about to make a comeback.
Houston's first comeback game, the Pistons vs. Pacers.
That night, Houston was in no shape, while Miller made three-pointers rain from the outside.
102 to 96
The Pacers won and avenged the last time.
This battle also knocked the Pistons one place, and they dropped from sixth in the East to seventh.
It was also on the day of Houston's comeback that Mo Mengchen's attribute points accumulated 41,000, and he decided to use the attribute points on his own.
First, he increased his core strength from 55 to 60, and consumed 6,000 attribute points.
There are 35,000 attribute points.
Then, he increased the lateral movement speed from 63 to 70, and consumed 12,000.
This made him feel so painful, it was so fucking expensive.
In a blink of an eye, there were only 23,000 attribute points left on the body.
Immediately afterwards, he increased the upper limb strength from 75 to 80, and consumed 15,000 attribute points.
Only 8000 attribute points remain.
With the remaining 8,000 attribute points, he increased his offensive stability from 44 to 50.
In this way, I accumulated half a season of attribute points, and in the blink of an eye, I used up all of them.
Mo Mengchen turned off the attribute add point module, and in a blink of an eye, his total evaluation increased by 1 point.
It took 40,000 attribute points, but in the end the total evaluation only increased by 1 point.
This game is too difficult, right?
Mo Mengchen felt something was wrong - no, maybe the attributes I added could not reflect on the evaluation.
Think about what I have added.
Cross-moving speed, core strength, upper limb strength, offensive stability.
These attributes can only be reflected in the game if the offensive stability is helpful to the increase in the overall evaluation.
Now, his upper limb strength has 80 points, lower limb strength has 85 points, and core strength has 60 points. No matter what part of his strength, he is qualified or even excellent. Unless he encounters misalignment, or a back-type player like a heavy body like a bull, he should not be knocked down like he did at the beginning of the season.
The reason why Mo Mengchen chose to enhance his attributes at this critical moment is very simple. Houston's comeback and the Pistons have a second fire point. Even if he has a freezing point during this period, the team will not be caught off guard.
Increased upper limb strength by 5 points has a great impact on his feel, just like he originally had upper limb strength above level, but suddenly, his upper limb strength reached an excellent level, so there will naturally be problems with his shooting feel.
In the next seven games, Mo Mengchen made 22 shots from the outside and only hit 2 goals.
The three-point shooting percentage also dropped from a terrifying 55% to 51%. Fortunately, he found his touch in the eighth game against the Cavaliers.
This was a difficult game, neither side had any touch, except Mo Mengchen.
It seems that he has to rely on a game to throw all the goals he has not scored before.
That night, Mo Mengchen made seven shots from outside the three-point line, scoring 26 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists in the game, helping the team defeat the Cavaliers at the last minute and winning the 45th victory of the season.
There are only three games left in the regular season, and the Pistons have already established their position in the playoffs. The only question is whether they want to enter the playoffs with seventh place in the East, or sixth or fifth place in the East.
Because the record of the fifth, sixth and seventh third team in the Eastern Conference is too close, whoever performs in the last three games will fall to the bottom.
The Pistons don't want to enter the playoffs with seventh place because that will allow them to encounter Magic in the first round, which is a powerful enemy that no one wants to encounter.
However, in the third-last game of the regular season, they will face the Chicago Bulls at home, the King's Army.
"This is a game where both sides can play a fire-filled match without mobilization."
Time: April 18, 1996.
Location: Auburn Hill Palace Stadium, Detroit, Michigan, USA.
Background: "Please witness, the great legend begins tonight."
The Pistons and the Bulls have a long history, whether it is during the Isaiah Thomas era or now.
Although the era when the two sides disliked each other was over, and the Bulls and Pistons had different positions in the league, the two teams always burst into fierce sparks whenever they met.
The Bulls wanted to double the humiliation that the Pistons had imposed on them in the past, while the Pistons wanted to make the Bulls reminisce about their former fears.
Tonight's commentator, in addition to Vinier Johnson, also has the golden pair of Groom Albert and Bill Walton.
"This is their fourth time this season, and the Bulls won the first three times."
"Although the Bulls have achieved their best record in history, 70 wins are not the final result of this season."
"Yes, let's see what the 70-win team will perform tonight."
Doug Collins looked at the Red Bulls stepping onto the court in a complicated mood. He was the commander of this team, but unfortunately, he failed to lead the group of people to succeed.
The Pastor's Son did it, but Collins didn't feel that he was inferior to Phil Jackson.
In his opinion, the other party was just more lucky than himself.
As soon as he left, Pipen began to mature.
He believes that if the Bulls are handed over to him, he can lead the team to 70 wins.
Everything will pass.
Collins sighed in his heart and looked back at his players: "You should know more than me what this game represents."
"We either end Chicago's winning streak against us or let them continue to humiliate us," Dumas said.
The Pistons haven't beat the Bulls in nearly four years.
Not to mention this game tonight, the Bulls have won fifteen consecutive victories against the Pistons.
For any team, the existence of such a record is a shame.
Outside the three-point line, Mo Mengchen made three-pointers in succession.
He felt very good tonight.
"Mo!"
"Look here!"
“Dor.Mo!”
After a season, Mo Mengchen's popularity among the Pistons is quite impressive.
His overall view, his leadership temperament, his three-pointer, and his toughness to never give in to the opponent's attacks all show a boss who is different from the elegant and easy-going Grant Hill.
He is still very young, who knows what his future will be like?
The cheers in the audience were not as good as the cheers of the two of them for Mo Mengchen.
In the front family area, Momonchen saw Ephraim and Adrian.
Ephraim's career has been on the right track since the end of that lawsuit, and through this incident, he became increasingly close to Ephraim.
"Boy, when the game starts, you won't see my smiling face."
Mo Mengchen turned around and Jordan walked towards him.
"While I can still smile at you, shake your hand." Jordan stretched out his hand.
Mo Mengchen didn't ask him if he had washed his hands. Anyway, it was a waste of time to ask. This hand was destined to be dirty tonight, so he just shook it. This is the friendship hand of the best player in history.
"I hope to win 71 wins on you tonight."
Jordan's words smelled unspeakable, and he was serious.
"My teammates have had enough of losing to you all the time, we will win tonight." Mo Mengchen made his opinion tough.
"Hmph, come and try it!"
Jordan turned around proudly and walked backwards.
The live DJ introduced the players of both sides, and then the game was about to begin.
Langley and Thorpe jumped.
This is the solution that Collins came up with. Terry Mills could not defeat anyone on the jump ball, so it would be better to let Thorpe take it on his shoulders.
The result was not good. Lang Li's height was there. Thorpe was old and lost his explosive power when he was young and his height and wingspan were not superior. It was normal to jump and lose.
The Australian giant tweeted hard and the ball hit Pipen's hand.
Batman was extremely fast and wanted to hit Hill when he came up. His offensive choice was very casual. He stopped in the frontcourt and closed the ball on the left three-point line to shoot a three-pointer.
To be continued...
