Chapter 157 Challenge Between Men

This is an obvious provocation.

The NBA is like this, the players are like fighting bulls one by one.

When you don't use your strength to conquer the opponent, no one will take you seriously.

In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Fei took the team bus to the outside of the player tunnel of the Toyota Center.

The car is parked.

The players got out of the car one after another.

When Wang Fei got off the car, a large group of reporters rushed to take pictures.

The flash lights flickered.

"Wang, did you see that tweet from Griffin? He seemed to be mocking you for being too short. How do you respond to that?" a reporter asked loudly.

Wang Fei smiled, but he didn't answer.

Let's talk less and do more!
What's the use of talking so much before a game?

The most powerful response is to "slap" the face during the game.

Aren't you Griffin nicknamed "White Warcraft"?Then I'll be the beast tamer.

Pre-match training begins.

Wang Fei is warming up seriously.

In fact, it's just shooting the ball, looking for the feel or something.

At this time, there is still half an hour before the start of the game.In the stands, spectators have already entered the arena one after another.

Today's game was broadcast live by Houston's local TV station.

The two narrators are already in place.

They are Tracy McGrady and Jimmer Lambiel.

Tracy McGrady is considered a Rockets star. He once played a bright performance in the Rockets. He once scored 35 points in 13 seconds against the Spurs.

This also made him look good for a while.

His signature move is the pull-up jumper.

There is still a while before the start of the game, and the two commentators are still talking about some gossip.

"T-MAC, Wang Fei can be said to be the hottest young man in the Rockets now. He has caused a sensation in the entire United States in two games. He also broke your record of 35 seconds and 13 points. What do you think of him? What do you think?" Jimmy asked with a smile.

T-MAC is the abbreviation of McGrady.

McGrady shook his head and said: "This young man is very strong, and I am very optimistic about him. Now, many people are looking down on him, thinking that he has a vitreous physique and is prone to injuries, and that his speed advantage cannot be maintained for too long. But I want to That is to say, he really has a high IQ! Even if he doesn’t attack, he can help the team with his organization! As you can see, he had a beautiful stat of 20 assists in the previous game. He led the Rockets A bunch of subs played a really good game. With him, the Rockets' offense suddenly revitalized."

Jimmer said with a smile: "However, Michael said that he is likely to ruin his own career because of a serious injury. Many people also recognize this very much."

McGrady said: "Wang is very smart at playing, he knows how to protect himself. I don't think he will be so vulnerable to serious injuries."

Jimmer shook his head: "I don't agree. Wang is too short. If he wants to attack or defend, he has to do some difficult confrontation moves. These moves can easily cause him injury, don't you think? "

McGrady said: "But you should also see that he reacts very quickly, he is much faster than others, and he has a good grasp of the timing of offense and defense. He did not act recklessly. He is playing with his brain. He may not be a strong muscular man, but he knows how to keep himself safe in a confrontation."

Jimmer smiled and said: "You seem to be reasonable! However, I believe you have also watched the video posted by Fagan. Chris Paul actually blocked Wang Fei and let him miss the shot. Is this also true? A wake-up call: Wang Fei's speed advantage really seems to be losing. If Paul can guard Wang Fei, there are a lot of fast young guys in the NBA who can probably do it too."

McGrady frowned and said, "Jimmer, you may not know Chinese people well."

Jimer asked, "What do you mean?"

McGrady said: "It is very likely that Wang is just using this ball to save a little face for Chris."

Jimmer frowned: "You mean, that ball king is letting water? Did he do that on purpose? Isn't it?"

McGrady nodded and said, "Huaxia people don't have such a flamboyant personality. Chris is an old man, and Chris's personality may be a little narrow, so Wang chose not to use his full strength."

"God! I really can't figure out what these Chinese people think." Jimmer shook his head and said.

on the field.

Griffin and his teammates are also watching Wang Fei.

"His shooting is indeed very accurate. Until now, he has not missed a ball." Wayne Ellington said to Griffin.

Wayne Ellington is the guard of the Pistons and one of the main players of the team.

It's just that his statistics are really not very good. He averaged less than 10 points per game, and his assists and rebounds are also pitiful.

"As I said, we have to block his shooting route. As long as he can't see the basket, he will completely misfire." Griffin said, "If the video sent by Fagan is true, If Wang Fei’s speed slows down, no matter how accurate his shots are, he will not pose a threat to us. I think we should focus on Harden and Paul, this is the right choice.”

"Blake, you're right! We can't pay too much attention to that Huaxia kid. Maybe, he's just like Lin, who just exploded suddenly and then fell silent. You and Lin once played the All-Star together, you Do you feel that Wang is in the same situation as Lin?" Wayne Ellington asked.

Griffin nodded: "They do have similarities. However, Wang is better than Lin. Wang's speed and jumping ability are not comparable to Lin's."

"However, Lin also played very crazy back then. He scored more than 20 points in many consecutive games. Lin's physical fitness is much better than Wang's." Wayne Ellington said.

Griffin smiled and said: "I hope Wang's madness will pass as soon as possible. It's best to be able to slump in this game against us. I don't want him to continue the momentum of the last two games."

Wayne Ellington nodded: "Yeah, in the last two games, he really played very well. He scored 35 points in two consecutive games, and he still had a double-double. However, the video of Fagan has proved that Wang His crazy momentum will soon become a thing of the past. In this game, maybe he will no longer be amazing!"

Griffin nodded and said, "Well! I hope so."

The game is about to begin.

Now, it's time for players from both sides to play.

Wang Fei is still a substitute, but the order of his appearance is closely behind Chris Paul.

When Paul came out of the player tunnel, the spotlight hit him, and Paul's figure appeared on the big screen at the same time.

The audience immediately cheered.

A big round of applause for the return of the league's legendary guard.

Paul also raised his hands high, with a bright smile on his face, accepting his own moment of glory.

Wang Fei followed Paul to the sidelines.

The fans at the scene once again burst into applause, and many people called Wang Fei's name.

"Wang Fei!"

"Wang Fei!"

The formation seems to be bigger than when Paul played.

A cloud of gloom passed across Paul's face, and he felt a little uncomfortable.Because, he didn't want this rookie from China to overshadow his limelight.

However, he still turned his face, glanced at Wang Fei and said, "Wang, it seems that everyone likes you very much."

Wang Fei said with a smile: "The fans are all lovely, and I like them very much. I enjoy these wonderful moments in the Rockets."

Paul frowned and said seriously: "Wang, let's have a game."

Wang Fei was taken aback.

Contest?

than what?
Immediately, Wang Fei understood that this was Paul's competitive spirit, and he wanted to compete with himself on the court.

Of course, speak with data!
Wang Fei smiled wryly in his heart.

Chris Paul still wants to prove that he is better than himself!
Wang Fei then said: "Chris, how dare I compare with you, as long as the team can win, I think this is more important than personal honor."

He said he didn't dare to compete with Paul, but he was holding back his energy: Okay!Then let me use a more gorgeous data to announce the birth of the new king of the Rockets!
I don't want to argue with you.

But if you insist on fighting, then I will accompany you.

Chris Paul took a deep look at Wang Fei and said: "Wang, I don't like cowards. I think that a man should be tough! Don't be cowardly like a woman! Let's have a competition! Don't back down! "

This is aggressive!
Wang Fei put away the smile on his face and said, "Okay! Then I will accept your challenge! Chris, what do you think we will compare?"

Chris Paul said without hesitation: "Of course it is a comprehensive comparison! See who has contributed more to the team! And the data is the only criterion for measuring contribution! Let's compare the data!"

Wang Fei nodded: "Okay! I accept your challenge!"

"Ding!"

At this moment, a reminder sounded in Wang Fei's mind.

"Dear host, you have initiated a mission! You must completely overwhelm Chris Paul with statistics in this game, and then establish your position in the team!" The voice of the system sounded.

Did it actually trigger a mission?
Wang Fei smiled.

At this moment, he felt that he was full of energy.

His fighting spirit is high!
After the appearance ceremony was over, Wang Fei returned to the bench and sat beside Gary Clark.

In the live broadcast, the conversation between McGrady and Jimmer also revolved around Paul and Wang Fei.

Jimmer Lambiel asked with a smile: "T-MAC, what do you think Paul and Wang are talking about? They seemed to be discussing something during the appearance ceremony. Paul was a little arrogant, and Wang finally turned serious."

McGrady shrugged and said: "I feel that Paul must have said something that made Wang unhappy. Perhaps, Paul still treats Wang as a rookie. I think it is not wise for Paul to do so. He should be more broad-minded. .”

Jimmer Lambiel said: "I guess D'Antoni is also in trouble, right? Wang performed so well, he should have started, but Paul came back, and Wang was still squeezed to the bench."

McGrady said with a smile: "I think that Wang may be more effective as a substitute. He is the kind of person who can make his teammates perform better. Moreover, as a substitute, he has more possession of the ball, which helps him Play better."

Jimmer nodded: "It makes sense. Some people say that Wang is very similar to Lin Crazy. Many people are saying that Wang's outbreak is also likely to be periodic. Perhaps, he will disappear soon. Do you think, Can Wang Fei go crazy in this game?"

Lin Crazy, also known as Jeremy Lin.

When Jeremy Lin was in the New York Knicks, he couldn't play at the beginning, and was frequently sent to the NBDL to play.However, Jeremy Lin is a person who is good at seizing opportunities. On February 2012, 2, he came off the bench in the Knicks game against the Nets and scored 4 points, 25 rebounds and 5 assists in one fell swoop, starting the Lin crazy mode for the first time.Even, in the Knicks game against the Lakers on February 7, he played more beautiful statistics, scoring 2 points and 10 assists, which also attracted Kobe's attention, and Kobe also praised Jeremy Lin.

McGrady smiled and shook his head: "I don't think Wang is just crazy for a while! He has a much higher starting point than Lin! He played crazy in the first game, scored 38 points and was close to a triple-double, and helped the team. Victory. Wang Bilin's defensive ability is stronger. I think he will continue to go crazy in this game."

Jimmer said: "However, it seems that many people think that this game may no longer be crazy."

McGrady raised his eyebrows and said: "Everyone looked down on Wang Wang in the same way in the last game. The result? He not only scored 35 points, but also scored 20 assists! Once again, he created a record in the history of the Rockets! I firmly believe that he will have a good performance, or, let's take a gamble?"

Jimo thought for a while, then he shook his head and said, "No! I won't bet with you! However, let's wait and see how Wang's performance will be!"

McGrady smiled and said, "Okay! Then let's see whose prediction is more accurate."

The game started.

On the court, Chris Paul handles the ball.

His performance was very positive.

I have to say that Paul plays very steadily, and his overall view is also very broad.

Under Paul's needlework, the Rockets' offense is very smooth.

But the Pistons also played very tough.

The Pistons only have Griffin as an All-Star player, and they are considered a civilian team.But their team offense played very well.

Regardless of offense or defense, they have built an efficient offensive and defensive system centered on Griffin.

In the first quarter of the game, the two sides played inextricably on the court, leading the score alternately.

Because of this, the Rockets did not make any substitutions for the entire quarter.

Wang Fei sat on the sidelines for a while.

At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets entered the break with Paul hitting a three-pointer leading the Pistons by 2 points at the last moment.

In this section, Paul's performance is remarkable.

He scored 7 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds, and 2 steals.

This data is still very beautiful.

Therefore, when Paul left the field, he got a standing ovation from the fans at the scene.
