You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 74

"Skywalker!"

"Skywalker!"

In the locker room of the Nuggets, people kept calling David Thompson's nickname, which made Wei Xia very shy.

To him, "Skywalker" sounded too secondary.

Just like those guys who shouted "Tianma Meteor Fist" in childhood, your youth is gone forever, you know?You guys are getting to the age where you feel uncomfortable when you see that kind of thing, you know?

For Wei Xia, "Skywalker" belongs to his Pegasus Meteor Fist.

It's been a long time since I've heard such a nickname.

The man in the lead is the team's backup, Mack Calvin, despite his unremarkable name and you don't know anything about him.He's a character, yet another damning example of the low intensity of the ABA game.

Calvin was drafted into the ABA in 1969, and his prime was in that defunct league.

He was selected to the ABA All-Star team 5 times, was selected to the All-ABA First Team 3 times, and was selected to the All-ABA Second Team in 1973.Same with those guys who made a killing in the ABA and somehow got lost in the NBA.Entering the NBA, he was reduced from a top ten player in the league to a substitute who struggled to average double figures per game.

At this time, he gave full play to the advantages of a loud voice to drive the people in the locker room to join in the fun.

After Larry Brown walked in, the locker room was much quieter, which shows that he has authority.

"I'm very happy to see that everything is going according to plan. Just keep it like this. Remember, we will never stop until David wins the scoring champion!" Brown seems to really like Thompson.

If he didn't know the old Brown, he wouldn't be impressed with the young Brown.

Perhaps most people who were enlightened when they were young somehow became rigid obnoxious people?

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Wei Xia originally wanted to continue to attack.

Since Thompson needs the scoring champion, the support of his teammates, and the full delegation of power from the coach, there is no reason why he should not do this.Although doing so runs counter to the ideal game in his heart, what does it matter if he comes here occasionally?

Besides, he is now David Thompson, not John Havlicek, let alone himself.

Instead of manipulating Thompson's game according to his understanding of the game, he should just go with the flow and do what the protagonist wants to do.

He didn't know if this was what Thompson wanted.

Since the Pistons won the ball at the beginning of the first quarter, the ball in the second and third quarters naturally belonged to the Nuggets.

The on-site announcer said: "'Skywalker' scored 51 points in the first half, which has set an NBA historical record. If he maintains his touch and form, he will be the scoring champion at the end of the game. Even Wilt's record of 100 points cannot be surpassed."

"Today is yours, David," laughed Dan Issel as he served the serve. "Go for it."

"I kicked the woman who seduced me out of bed this afternoon." Wei Xia didn't know why he said this.

Issel looked confused.

Well, at this point, he can only say a nasty joke: "Because I don't know if I can do it or not."

Iselle has a kind of self-confidence about Skywalker's strength: "Brother, you have to believe in yourself. There is no woman in the world that you can't fuck. The reason why you kicked her out of bed must be because she is from Florida!"

Wei Xia laughed out loud.He laughed because he understood the baggage in Issel's words.It was an ancient law, which had been repealed in his day.This law is: In Florida, all men who have sex with bitches will face more than 10 years in prison.So there is the American version of regional discrimination-women in Florida must be ugly!

Similar bizarre laws can be seen everywhere in the United States. For example, Pennsylvania, where he is located in Philadelphia, has a law: Fishing with parts other than the mouth is not allowed in Pennsylvania.

Don't want people to be fishing, just say it, okay?

Wei Xia joked with his teammates and happily dribbled the ball to the frontcourt to score the 53rd point.

With no three-point line, court space is tight and cramped in this day and age.

Wei Xia is not used to the field without the three-point line. When he dribbled over to face Eric Manny, suddenly, two other Pistons players outflanked his position.

In an instant, a three-person double team formed.

Wei Xia's brain was blank, thinking of him as the scoring champion, he made the most irrational choice and forced a shot against the three-person double-team.

With such a defensive strength, there is naturally no chance to force a shot.

He missed the shot and the Pistons countered.

He and his teammates thought it was an accident, but they didn't expect that the plan discussed by the Pistons after the halftime break was to use 2-3 people to defend him.

From the beginning of the third quarter, when Wei Xia took the ball, double-teaming with two people is commonplace, double-teaming with three-persons is flat, and double-teaming with four-persons is not surprising, but double-teaming with five-persons?Fortunately, the other party has a bottom line.

Four-person double-teaming is already the ultimate.

Wei Xia wanted to pass the ball to his teammate at first, but the teammate held the ball open and refused to shoot. He waited for him to get out of the double-team and then passed the ball back.

So he took the ball and continued to shoot against the double team.

Still not going in.

The Pistons' strategy worked. The use of multiple teams made it impossible for Wei Xia to single out and score with his hot touch.

At the same time, another unexpected person broke out.

Al Skinner from the bench, who is as legendary as Manny.Manny is the only player in history to score for both teams in the same game.And Skinner is the only player in history to be DNP by two teams in the same game.

Today, he suddenly entered the state, like a Terminator who turned into a scoring champion and scored points again and again.

After scoring only 2 points in the first half, he scored 13 points in the third quarter. Not only did he help the Pistons overtake, but he also took the lead by 4 points.

Wei Xia struggled to break through the opponent's double-team. It was a rare opportunity for him to use a throw in the paint to evade the defense. Since he jumped higher than himself in reality, it was easier to find an angle for the throw.

It was his 61st point and his last of 10 in the third quarter.

Next, he had few chances to score, and his teammates finally woke up.If you don't help Wei Xia decompress, Wei Xia will not be able to attack freely.

Therefore, when Wei Xia encountered an open space and passed the ball out, they were so handsome in their decisive shot.

It would be even more handsome if he could make the damn open shot.

What Wei Xia heard was the tragic sound of iron striking. The embarrassment that they couldn't make open shots would make Wei Xia face more severe double-teaming. He didn't blame his teammates.He can't expect to suddenly pass the ball to his teammates when he has taken over two and a half quarters, let them solve the problem, and they can really solve the problem regardless of the cooling of the two and a half quarters.
