Anthony the Reborn

Chapter 302 Glory even if defeated

"You...I..." Su Xi's expression became a little awkward for a moment, she smiled mischievously, "I didn't know you were up there, so... I'm sorry..."

Su Xi turned around and walked downstairs.

Anthony watched Su Xi turn and leave. He didn't look there, but turned to look at Fox beside him. Fox didn't speak, but looked at Su Xi until Su Xi disappeared from her field of vision. She just turned her head, and when she and Anthony's eyes met, she followed with a smile.

Anthony looked at Fox, his heart was touched for some reason, and he wanted to hug Fox, but found that he couldn't even show the courage at this time.

Fox saw Anthony standing there in embarrassment, took his hand and said, "Go back to the room first."

Anthony didn't speak, and just let Fox be pulled into the room.

Back in the room, Fox stretched out his hand to close the door, and then pulled Anthony to sit by the bed.

Anthony thought of what he saw in the storage room just now, that was the bloody bed sheet left by Su Xi. Fox found out about this, and he knew that if he kept silent at this time, things might get worse. He suddenly After a while, he continued, "Melo, there is something..."

"I can understand." Before Anthony could continue, Fox interrupted her, turned his head and looked at Anthony with piercing eyes, and said, "Mello, I don't care about your past. What you owe, I am willing to share with you." Repay it together, I only need one request, no matter what, you don't abandon me, can you?"

Anthony heard what Fox said, and his heart trembled. He looked up and saw Fox's eye circles were slightly red. After becoming famous, the beauty in front of him had never cried before, but today, it seemed that he was going to cry for Anthony again. up.

The sense of self-blame in Anthony's heart became heavier, and he suddenly had the feeling that he would cut himself to pieces. Fox loved him so much, but he was still entangled with other women.

Anthony gently reached out and took Fox into his arms, and patted him on the back with his hand.

Fox lay in Anthony's arms, trembling slightly, and it took a while before he stopped.

I don't know how long it took. Anthony felt that the person in his arms had stabilized. He turned his head and found that Fox had fallen asleep just like that. He gently put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and placed her on his forehead. After a light kiss, he picked up a pack of cigarettes from the bed and walked to the balcony.

When he woke up the next day, Fox became the same as usual, as if nothing happened yesterday. Anthony knew that she was going to let this matter go, but he knew in his heart that Su Xi was always there, and from this episode From the perspective of time, Su Xi's love for him is probably no less than that of Fox, let alone his child. He knows that these things cannot be resolved at once, and now he can only take one step at a time. up.

The series between the Nuggets and the Mavericks is still going on. After two days of rest, the Mavericks returned to Denver's Pepsi Center to challenge the Nuggets, but what they didn't expect or underestimated was that, The momentum that the Nuggets accumulated in the first game did not disappear because of the end of the first game, but continued all the time. The result was also expected. The Mavericks once again encountered a It was a disastrous defeat, with a point difference of 20 plus, which was more than the loss in the first game.

In the first round, they swept their opponents by more than 30 points per game. Now they are playing against the Mavericks in the semi-finals. After the first two games, they still have a 20-point margin of victory over their opponents. This result drove the local Denver fans completely into a frenzy. Some fans originally worried that the Nuggets' performance in the playoffs would not be as good as the regular season, but now it seems that such worries are completely unnecessary.

However, some people are happy and some are worried. The fans of the Nuggets are out of extreme complacency, while the fans of the Mavericks are much more depressed. The Mavericks under the leadership of Nelson have never been able to advance to the Western Conference Finals. Although this season's record is relatively mediocre, as fans, they are still full of expectations inside, expecting the Mavericks to stage a good show of "black eight" on the next gram, but judging from the first two games, this is no matter how you look at it.

Some Mavericks fans still have hope, though. In a series, the home win rate is often much higher than the away game. The Mavericks lost both games on the road, and the next two games were against the Mavericks. At home, they, like the Nuggets, still have a great possibility to play a momentum ball at home, thus achieving a comeback.

The fans of the two sides had two completely opposite moods. The third game of the two sides was staged at the American Airlines Center Arena in Dallas. The arena, which can accommodate more than 1 fans, was crowded with Mavericks fans. Many of them were dispatched by the whole family. , which shows the enthusiasm of the local Dallas fans, and the arena is also very cooperative in distributing uniforms to the fans. The dark blue clothes look like an ocean, full of momentum.

Karl also specifically told the players before the game, asking them to focus on the game and not to care about home or away.

In the highly anticipated game, the third game was staged like this. After the opening, the Mavericks did play a very beautiful offensive climax amidst the cheers of the home fans, but the "Big Three" of the Tunneling team made efforts one after another. Let the Mavericks open the score.

There is a saying that the Mavericks are like a bow and arrow that is full of strings, but it can't be fired. At the end, the hand that pulls the string loses its strength to continue. The result is , the Mavericks' offense is slowly no longer so efficient, and this is especially obvious after the Mavericks replaced the substitutes. The Nuggets' substitutes crushed the Mavericks in all aspects. The momentum on the field has been reversed, and the Nuggets began to press down on the Mavericks. It went straight to 20 points, and in the end, it was exactly the same as the first two games, and it was another big defeat.

0:3, the Mavericks are already standing on the edge of a cliff, if they still can't make some changes, then let alone a comeback, there is a high possibility that they will be directly swept away by the Mavericks.

In the fourth game, the two sides still competed at the American Airlines Center. The Mavericks were brutally abused in all three games. Normally, under such circumstances, the enthusiasm of the fans was basically exhausted. But before the game started, In just one hour, the American Airlines Center was completely packed with Mavericks fans, even more people than the previous game. From this, we can see the enthusiasm of the Mavericks fans. Host the team.

After being abused for three consecutive games, the players of the Mavericks had already lowered their morale a lot, but when they entered the arena and saw the arena that was so cramped that it couldn't be packed anymore, they were all taken aback by coincidence, followed closely A fighting spirit rose involuntarily in their hearts. They could lose, but with such enthusiasm from the fans, how could they easily admit defeat!

"beep!"

With the whistle of the referee, the fourth game between the two sides officially started.

After the players of the Mavericks came on the court, each and every one of them seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and I don’t know if it was the old Neilse’s intentional instruction. The players of the Mavericks put a lot of energy in both offensive and defensive ends. When playing, considering that the game is four quarters, I have the idea of ​​​​retaining physical strength, and I will be selective, either on the offensive end or on the defensive end to save some energy, but now the Mavericks players are crazy. Regardless of these, it was like desperately fighting on the field.

The players of the Mavericks worked hard, and the enthusiasm of the fans on the scene was even higher. The deafening shouts were like a group of desperate people making their last resistance. With the initiative on the field, and the old Nelson boldly carried out a 10-man rotation in this game, so that the players maintained enough physical strength. As a result, the Mavericks did not trail the Nuggets at halftime for the first time, but took the lead. Although only 3 points, but for them, this meaning is completely different, especially their core Dirk Nowitzki, who scored 10 points on 8 of 20 shots in the first half, is definitely the number one of the Mavericks heroes.

At halftime, Karl also paid more attention to the Mavericks. During the rest period, he was analyzing the Mavericks' tactics in the first half, and then arranged the tactics for them.

Back in the second half, the two sides fought again in different places. The Nuggets obviously exerted their strength in the second half, but the Mavericks players were not only playing with skills and tactics, but with a spirit of energy. In the end, they were stunned to maintain the situation .

The two sides were so deadlocked until the last minute of the game, with more than 1 seconds left in the game, the Nuggets were still 30 points behind the Mavericks, and the ball was on the Tunneling team's side.

At this time, needless to say, the ball was naturally handed over to Anthony, and everyone else pulled away.

Anthony was holding the ball on the outside and wasting time little by little. Howard was defending him. After spending more than ten seconds, he began to break forward. Howard shrank back, and he jumped back suddenly. After a step back, he directly pulled out from outside the three-point line.

This action was done in one go, and Howard had no time to defend, so he could only watch Anthony make a move.

The ball spun and flew towards the basket. The cheers of the fans on the scene were choked up, and all of them looked at the ball.

Karl is also staring at the ball closely at this time. At this time, the difference between scoring or not scoring is really very big.
