Chapter 15 Special Customs of the Clippers

However, imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

At the end of the second quarter, Wei Zhiming did not get a chance to play, which made Wei Zhiming very depressed.

The Nuggets' Mudiay was a big hole in the second quarter. As a new aid, he made five mistakes before the end of the second quarter. This allowed the Clippers to seize the opportunity and lead 56-42 by 14 points into the second half.

During the intermission, Reeves did not emphasize anything. In his opinion, as long as there is Paul, everyone on the field will play.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Clippers were misfired on the offensive end. The Clippers did not score for 2 minutes, which made Reeves' face a little dark. Just when he couldn't help but want to pause, Paul passed Griffin for a layup. Easily scored two points, which made Reeves look better.

Randy Foye, who made 2 of 0 shots in the first half, made up for the hole he dug in the second half. He scored two three-pointers and became one of the few offensive points for the Nuggets.

But the Clippers fought back crazily. In the middle of the third quarter, sharpshooters JJ-Redick, Paul and Pierce hit three-pointers one after another, and the Clippers led by 19 points.

During the timeout, Wei Zhiming looked at Reeves eagerly, hoping that Reeves would let him play.But Reeves seemed to forget about him. He glanced at the scoreboard and sent Rivers Jr., Richard Mbah a Moute, CJ Wilcox, Stephenson and Josh Smith.

"Hmph, a loser is a loser. Once the NBA starts, you will reveal your truth." On the contrary, CJ-Wilcox looked proud. He looked at Wei Zhiming, who was sitting on the bench with a frustrated face, He proudly raised his eyebrows at Wei Zhiming.

But Wei Zhiming didn't go to see CJ-Wilcox from the beginning to the end. He looked at Reeves with tears in his eyes, and wanted the head coach to send him to play.

"I don't want to play center, what the hell." Josh's face hurt, thinking of him as a former superstar, it's fine to play as a substitute for the Clippers, but he actually let him play the center he didn't like the most.

Wei Zhiming looked at Josh's bitter expression, his eyes glowed: "I think, Josh, tell the head coach to let me play center forward."

Josh looked at Wei Zhiming, then at the serious Reeves, and quickly shook his head: "Forget it, I think the center is pretty good."

Wei Zhiming sighed and continued to look at the court.

"Wei, don't worry, I will get the points you want for you." Lance Stephenson smiled, although he didn't play well this time.

Wei Zhiming shook his head, "It's okay, we have to trust the head coach."

When the substitutes came on the court, the Nuggets launched a crazy counterattack, but the Clippers' substitutes this season were far from last season's substitutes. Even if they were X**D, the Nuggets' substitutes still couldn't beat the Clippers.

With Nelson missing a three-pointer, the Clippers led the Nuggets 84-65 by 19 points into the final quarter.

In the fourth quarter, all the main players rested.Josh took 4 small players to fight the Nuggets on the court.

But Rivers Jr. is not Paul. He can only score by himself, not organize an offense. He called Josh for a pick-and-roll on the court, and then he went inside and was blocked.

Then CJ-Wilcox, who got the chance to play, got an open spot. He took a pass from Josh, made a long shot, and hit his first three-pointer.

"Yes!" CJ-Wilcox was triumphant, he stretched out three fingers, and then looked at the Clippers' bench with a constant smile on his face.

But at the next moment, Nelson, who was facing him, immediately responded. He hit a three-pointer to help the Nuggets continue their lives.

CJ-Wilcox scored for the first time and was the Clippers' only goal at the start of the fourth quarter.

The Clippers signed very well this summer, but now it seems that the ability to score off the bench is still not well resolved.Three consecutive rounds of missed offense allowed Reeves to replace CJ-Wilcourts and Richard Mbah a Moute.Put on Prigioni and Crawford.

But the two of them also seem to be affected by the players on the field, and they have no touch.For 5 minutes, the Clippers did not score a point, but the Nuggets pulled the gap to within 4 points.

Wei Zhiming sat on the bench watching anxiously. He turned his head to look at Reeves frequently, but Reeves still ignored him.

Fortunately, Josh deserves to be the strongest signing of the Clippers this summer. At the critical moment, he received a pass from Prigioni and broke through a dunk with a shoulder-shaking feint, resulting in 2+1.
"Oh!" Seeing this, Wei Zhiming immediately stood up from the bench and waved the towel vigorously.

"Tch, seeing him can only wave towels for the rest of his life." CJ-Wilcox didn't know why, just seeing Wei Zhiming was upset, he muttered in a low voice, his eyes rolling wildly.

The Nuggets are also tenacious. They cling to the score and cause trouble for the Clippers.

At the end of the fourth quarter, Josh stood up again. He hooked the net with a back single, then rushed inside to grab the rebound that Rivers missed, and made a tip-up.This key hit directly defeated the Nuggets, and the Clippers won a thrilling 103-96 victory.

The Clippers won, but Wei Zhiming was not very happy, because this game had nothing to do with him.

"How about it, I'm good." Josh came to Stephenson to show off his muscles. He scored 13 points, 8 rebounds and [-] assists in this game. Although the points are not many, a few are indeed crucial. ball.

Compared with Stephenson's 6 points, Josh is of course extremely powerful.

"10 out of 2 shots, I can do it!" Wei Zhiming teased Stephenson, Lance Stephenson's dark face was actually reddish: "Hmph, I just changed the venue, the hand feels bad, my level is not good It didn't work out."

"But you, Uncle Lance, are much better than you. You don't even have a chance to play." Stephenson said with a smile, Wei Zhiming's face darkened, and he decided to ignore him.

After the game, Reeves took the Clippers' Big Three to the press conference. Wei Zhiming came to the locker room with disappointment. He told himself in a low voice that this was just the first game, so he didn't need to worry.

In the locker room, although Wei Zhiming didn't play golf, he still chose to take a shower. After he got out of the shower, he found a group of people gathered around and didn't know what they were doing.

"What's the matter, what's the matter?" Wei Zhiming ran over to watch the excitement, and he vaguely saw that Paul seemed to be in the middle of the court.

"Oh, Chris, your dance is too bad." Wei Zhiming immediately heard Stephenson's voice, and he squeezed over to take a look, and found that Paul was dancing in the middle.

That small body, accompanied by rhythm, Wei Zhiming was drunk.

"What's the situation." Wei Zhiming laughed and asked Redick beside him, and Redick glanced at Wei Zhiming and said excitedly: "This is the custom of our Clippers. Whoever comes to the locker room last has to dance. , but I have to complain, Chris' dance is too ugly."

"I'll go, the Clippers still have regulations?" Wei Zhiming felt that he was lucky to return early. Paul's dance was already considered good in his opinion, but he was complained by his teammates.

"I must remember this rule, otherwise I will be in bad luck." Wei Zhiming secretly thought, does twisting yangko count as dancing?
