Chapter 157 An irrefutable bet!

"The Knicks beat the Cavaliers, Wu Di's superstar quality is questioned again!", "Anthony says he will limit Wu Di to 20 points!", "Black Seven Script? D'Anthony says the Knicks have an 80% chance to win the next victory!"...

The next day, a group of New York media reported the Knicks and the Cavaliers as if they had a collective orgasm.

No wonder they are not stingy in writing and adding fuel to the fire.

The Knicks entered the playoffs again after seven years, which had already scratched their seven-year itch. Now they are having a good start and making ruthless words. They wish the entire sports sector would report on the Knicks' hard-earned victory.

The media in Kecheng were filled with righteous indignation.

The real purpose of this infuriating report in New York is to deliberately disrupt the morale of the Knights. In short, the Knights must not be fooled!

The appeal of the playoffs is revealed, which concerns whether a city is eliminated or promoted. No local media dares to sarcastically. Even media like the Cleveland Honesty People, which have always been unpopular with the Cavaliers, have come forward to express their hope that the Cavaliers can regain morale and hit the Knicks' arrogance.

But James tweeted that if he were in Kecheng, he would not allow this to happen at all.

His original intention was to dissatisfie Wu Di, and by the way, let the people of Oshu recall his goodness, but he received the opposite effect.

Many Russian Zhanmi said she had quit her fans on the spot, and retweeted that she had recognized Zhan’s face, no one forced him to leave, and now she was sarcastic about her hometown, etc.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Old Zhan quickly deleted the tweet before stopping the fermentation of the matter.

Holding the newspaper of the day, David Stern smiled into a flower on the large boss chair in the NBA president's office.

This year's playoffs are particularly lively. On the first day, the seventh Knicks in the East defeated the Cavaliers, the eighth Grizzlies in the West won San Antonio, and the counterattack script was staged in both the East and the East!

Without the league's planning department deliberately creating topics, the online discussion about the NBA has exploded!

"David, the ratings on the first day were counted, and the ratings of the four games were very good, especially the playoff opening game between the Cavaliers and the Knicks G1, which reached 3.1 in the United States! The local ratings in Cleveland reached 11.3, which even exceeded the ratings of G1 Los Angeles in last year's finals!"

Xiao Hua handed a stack of information to Stern and said.

"Well, very good, very good! There are also games between the Heat and the 76ers, Lakers and Hornets, and the ratings will definitely be up to the next level."

Stern nodded with satisfaction and continued:

"A good start means half of success. This year our playoff ratings can finally make a comeback! With this rating, you will be stable next year!"

Xiao Hua nodded expressionlessly. When he entered the league, he was Stern's special assistant, and now he is the vice president of the league.

In his opinion, the succession was a foregone conclusion, only Stern had been emphasizing the difficulties.

He didn't want to talk too much about this matter, and continued:

"Do you want to slow down Wu Di's whistle? Yesterday's game, Wu Di only had two free throw opportunities. Compared with Anthony, he had 14 free throw opportunities. The complaint letters we received were more than 10,000..."

Stern looked at Xiao Hua and waved:

"Adam, I find that you always lack confidence in this young man from China! Don't think that referees are omnipotent. All we can do is delay his rise, not manipulate the game!"

Xiao Hua was speechless for a moment, and the total score of the two teams was 14 points away, and the number of free throws of the two people alone was 12 times. Isn’t this manipulating the game?

Seeing that he was still confused, Stern continued:

"If you want to give him the chance to show his personal heroism, the Cavaliers lost one game, but this can inspire them to quickly adapt to the rhythm of the playoffs. Look, there will definitely be a good show in the next game!"

Xiao Hua did not argue with it. He never believed in personal heroism. In the face of the power of rules, personal power is insignificant, and Stern was too idealistic.

Just like refusing to legalize spinach, it is better to lose this thing than to be blocked. Did the referee have already taken full charges in prison in 2006?

If he becomes the president later, it would be more realistic and put the spinach from behind to the front stage.

Well, everything will be under his control!

...

Knight Training Hall.

A group of players crowded in the video room to study last night's game.

Although the referee's penalty was obviously unfair, they did not complain.

After all, if they can't even adapt to this, it's impossible for them to reach this position in the regular season.

They held their breath. What the Knicks and others said yesterday was very unpleasant. They were going to return it in the next game!

Watching a video, Scott explained to the assistant coaches such as Jante. He had already finished the game that was less than 60 minutes after the timeout, but he watched it for more than 3 hours.

"First of all, I have to admit that the words I let you lift the rhythm before the game hurt you guys!"

Scott said with red eyes. After losing the game yesterday, he and the assistant team had almost no eyes closed overnight.

Many problems have been analyzed, but the biggest problem is the Cavaliers' offensive rhythm.

The defensive intensity in the playoffs is one step ahead of the regular season. It is not wrong to lift the offensive rhythm, avoid perfectionism, and increase the number of shots, but Scott underestimated the immature mentality of this Cavaliers.

The second-place finish in the Eastern Conference blinded his eyes, making him think that this team is already a team of battles, and his mentality is so stable that it cannot be more stable:

"You are getting more and more anxious. In fact, when you missed five consecutive irons in the first quarter, I should call a timeout!"

Everyone said nothing, they played badly in this game.

I didn't feel that I couldn't bear to look at the video while watching the video off the court.

The movements were either deformed or inadequate. On the field, they felt that everything was against them, and off the field, they realized that they were themselves who were doing the wrongdoing.

"Tomorrow is a new game. I think our previous tactics and style of play are fine. The key is to regain the feeling of the game!"

Scott paused and continued:

"So we won't train today. We will go back to the Speed ​​Loan Stadium later and only have one team game. Then I'll treat everyone to a meal!"

...

The team's game was very smooth, with the Cavaliers starting against the substitutes, and the starters performed at their due level.

In the restaurant, Scott held the wine glass and found Wu Di specifically:

"Hey, Di, do you think our confidence has been recovered?"

Wu Di thought for a moment and said:

"I think this thing has to be retrieved from the field, you have to win games before you can say that you have figured out the playoffs, or it is the castle on the beach, which looks golden during the day, and when the tide rises at night, the waves collapse as soon as they come..."

Scott nodded with a wry smile. What Wu Di said actually makes sense. This is why the outside world says that playoff experience is very important. If you don’t win a few games in person, even if the tactics are correct, you will not have a clear idea.

After he took a sip of wine, he said:

"Actually, although I have experience in winning the playoffs, it was all when I was a player. After I became the head coach, my performance in the playoffs was getting worse every year..."

Wu Di was a little surprised. There were very few people like Scott who dared to expose their own shortcomings in the United States, and even fewer were placed in the coaching circle.

NBA players are all stars worth at least several million. In order to maintain their majesty, many coaches usually stick to their faces crazily.

If you can win a championship, no matter whether you win the championship is a player, a coach, or even an assistant coach, you will want to blow yourself to the sky and take all the credit...

All I can say is that Scott is indeed an honest person.

He is not very good at PUA and has a thin skin. Whether he coached the Nets or the Hornets before, when the team encountered problems, they would fight to stand up and take the blame.

But neither Kidd from the Nets nor Paul from the Hornets had a lot of affection for Scott, which led to the first person he was cut as a coach...

"Coach, don't say anything. Although we are young and lack experience, young means adjustments faster! Let's watch tomorrow's game, we will definitely be able to play a beautiful turnaround tomorrow!"

Wu Di patted his shoulder. Scott supported him a lot. He had to support Scott with his actions!

...

After dinner, Wu Di said goodbye to the team and took Arina to the equipment area of ​​the training hall.

"System, add 4 talents to the power!"

With the decline in the wealth of Under Armour's stock worth $20 million, Wu Di's talent increased from 90 to 94 in one fell swoop.

This is all the savings he saved after he has reached the super level, and coupled with the 0.125% stock reward he won for the Best Rookie Award, a handful of krypton gave strength.

Although no one accused him of playing poorly in the game, he knew very well that Anthony's defense in the game did limit his performance.

The problem lies in the power confrontation.

Anthony's power is at least 95, but his power is only 90.

Although his strength increased at the beginning of the season 85, due to the secondary growth of the wingspan, the maximum weight of the bench press was 180 kg.

Anthony's height and wingspan are similar to his, and his strength of 95 can push at least 190 kilograms.

The 10 kilogram gap has little impact in the regular season, and Anthony is even unwilling to fight against him.

But in the playoffs, every goal was a bayonet, and the referee's penalty standard was relatively large, Anthony's unscrupulous little moves caused serious interference to him.

Although an increase of 4 points is not enough to completely make up for the strength gap between him and Anthony, as long as this impact can be reduced, it is enough.

Originally, he had accumulated a lot of insights into power. After krypton talent points and Arina's assistance, he quickly realized his talent and increased his actual index to 94.

...

On April 18, the Quick Loan Center Arena was full.

After the fermentation of public opinion in the past two days, countless Russians have included New Yorkers among their life-and-death enemies.

They came to the stadium early, wearing a "Go to Get a Real Championship" support T-shirt, cheering Wu Di and shouting to the Cavaliers.

There were many people who were swing fans of Zhan before, but now they have realized the reality. Only Wu Di can save Cleveland from being humiliated!

This is the cohesion of the playoffs, just like a war between cities. When the opponent's city army is approaching, you cannot pray that other team stars will save your hometown.

During the warm-up period before the game, Anthony found Wu Di, put his hand beside his mouth and said:

"Shaozi, I heard you like to bet!"

Wu Di replied expressionlessly:

"Not in the mood."

Anthony's eyes narrowed, and Wu Di's answer was beyond his expectations. He originally wanted to arouse Wu Di's greed and then threaten him again, but now he can only use his ultimate move:

"I don't care whether you are in the mood or not!"

He looked at the four golden flowers sitting on the sidelines. They were his most loyal fans, but now they were wearing the Knights' support T-shirt!

Although he has no selfish relationship with these four golden flowers because he likes the black girl, he doesn't even know the other person's name.

But he was frequently teased by his friends because of this incident, which has become a shame for him!

Therefore, he must make Wu Di pay the price:

"If you lose this game, you must let those four bitches get out! Otherwise, you will have good fruits to eat when you arrive in New York!"

After saying that, he walked back to the Knicks halftime without waiting for Wu Di to reply.

Wu Di's face turned pale. Although Anthony didn't say it clearly, it was hard not to remind people of his gangster background!

An irrefutable bet!

Unless he wins the game, he will have to let the four golden flowers leave!

Otherwise, he might be attacked by local gangs in New York!

So vicious!

If you are an ordinary young player, your mentality will also be greatly affected.

After all, personal safety is threatened, so how can you still have the heart to play?

And the reactions he can make are very limited. Anthony is a real local snake and the king of New York. In this matter, some little Caramy is the one who takes the knife for him, but Wu Di can only suffer a loss.

Just like many years later, Anthony led people to surround the Celtic bus, but the league did not impose any punishment.

In the end, Garnett took the initiative to call to apologize and surrender.

Wu Di clenched his fists, he was not scared!

He must win this game!

And afterwards, Anthony will take out the same bet!

He walked back to the Cavaliers' half, and his teammates saw that Wu Di's face was wrong and asked what happened.

"We have no way out for this game!"

Wu Di gritted his teeth and said that as for Anthony's threat, he did not give much explanation.

The competition is about to begin, and everyone didn't ask too much, so they had to temporarily suppress it.

Arina on the sidelines frowned. With her understanding of Wu Di, if something big had happened, Wu Di would not have reacted so much...

The starting ceremony ends, and the starting lineups on both sides are displayed on the big screen:

On the Knicks side, Billups in No. 1, Landry Fields in No. 2, Anthony in No. 3, Ronnie Turiaff in No. 4, and Studmeier in No. 5.

On the Cavaliers, Davis, No. 1, Wu Di, No. 2, Jamison, No. 3, Love, No. 4, and Jordan Jr.

Beep!

With the whistle sounded, Jordan Jr. jumped hard and racquetted the racket to the Cavaliers before Sir.

However, Billups had expected it and got stuck in front of Davis without hesitation!

Just as the ball was about to fall into his hands, Wu Di jumped high and picked up the flying ball in the air.

"Oh my god!"

The Knight Commentary Seat, the legendary commentator Joe Tate, who has served for more than 40 years, exclaimed:

"I have never seen Wu Di show such a strong competitive state. I have a good show today!"
