Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 507
Price's goal is indeed amazing, so many fans of the Warriors at home are full of praise for Price's goal.

For Price, the fans' hearts are very complicated. Although Price is the team that left the team voluntarily, as the champion of the championship, the fans are very sad, but they also know that Price is for better career development, so their feelings The boss was very reluctant, but reason told them that Price was not wrong.

And tonight, facing Li Weisi, using Li Weisi's technology to win the Magic's head start, this still gave the fans a ridiculous illusion.

However, what fans don't know is that this is just the beginning.

The next game almost became Price's personal show.

Different from Price's focus on organization in the past, tonight's Price turned into an independent force, rarely passing the ball, but kept scoring to prove himself to Li Weisi.

I have to say that Price's shooting rate tonight is really high and his condition is really good. No matter how Li Weisi defends, Price will always have a way to throw the ball in.

In this way, Price scored 18 points in a single quarter, almost catching up with his scoring average this season.

However, at the end of the first quarter, the score of the two teams was 30:31, one point behind the Warriors.

No way, even though the Warriors injured half of their starters, in terms of the overall strength of the team, they still have to beat the Magic by a lot.

Therefore, it can also be said that it was precisely because of Price's crazy performance that the Magic lost only one point in the first quarter.

Sure enough, in the second quarter, the Warriors took advantage of Price's rest on the court, and the Warriors' substitutes, led by Hornacek and Petrovic, played a 10-0 spurt and opened the gap to two in one fell swoop. digits.

Afterwards, Price, who only rested for 2 minutes, returned to the court, which prevented the team from widening the point difference and kept the 10-point difference until the halftime break.

Entering the second half, Price, who had regained his touch, scored consecutively again. However, this time, Li Weisi also stood up. Although he could not guard Price who exploded, Price also could not guard Li Weisi.

In this way, the entire third quarter almost turned into an exhibition match between the two, with all kinds of fairy balls being overwhelmed, making the fans hooked.

So throughout the third quarter, the two teams tied at 35, which can be said to be a tie.

However, Price's crazy performance will eventually come to an end. When the game entered the fourth quarter, as the Warriors began to exert their strength, the Magic's offensive system relying on Price alone was instantly fragmented.

Not only that, but following Li Weisi's order, the entire Warriors were like a wind-up machine, and suddenly their horsepower was fully activated, and they restricted Price through various auxiliary defenses and supplementary defenses.

And Price was already exhausted, and his shooting percentage began to decline. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the point difference between the two teams gradually changed from 10 points to 15 points, and finally reached 20 points.

The Magic did not surrender and played until the end. Unfortunately, they lost the game 117:132.

Price's performance tonight was impeccable. He made 24 of 16 shots and 12 of 8 three-pointers. He scored 48 points and 5 assists. This is Price's career scoring high.

It is shocking that a player who has never been good at scoring scored nearly 50 points.

Unfortunately, even so, the Magic still couldn't beat the Warriors.

Li Weisi didn't seem to put much effort tonight, and he played against Price in the third quarter, but looking at the statistics, he scored 36 points and 12 assists quietly, not much worse than Price.

After the game, Price didn't know how to face Li Weisi, after all, who made him speak harshly before the game!

However, Li Weisi gave Price a hug very generously, and at the same time congratulated: "Good job, Mark, you let me know you again. I really didn't know you had such a scoring ability before. I hope you can continue. keep it up!"

"Thank you! West!" Seeing that Li Weisi was fine, Price choked up.

After embracing Li Weisi, other Warriors players couldn't bear it anymore. Hornacek, Duckworth and others gathered around to congratulate Price.

Seeing these familiar faces, Price seemed to have returned home, greeting each smiling face one by one.

In the Magic, he got the status he wanted. In the team, every player respected him, and the head coach Guocas also trusted him, but until now, when he faced these former teammates, he Only then did I feel the warmth of a home.

For a moment, even Price himself had some doubts, was his choice wrong?

After parting with the Warriors players, Price walked out of the away player tunnel and came to the away locker room. Every Magic player also gave Price a high-five.

Although the team lost, Price's miraculous performance made them proud, as if they had scored so many points themselves.

After celebrating with his teammates, Price walked into the bathroom. After the warm water was poured from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, he gradually calmed down from his excitement.

Although I performed very well, the team still lost, and I still failed to beat the Warriors after all!
However, after this battle, Price felt that the burden in his heart had finally landed, and he was also full of hope for the future.

Although the Magic team is still lacking in all aspects, it has unlimited potential. He believes that under his leadership, the Magic will definitely be able to enter the playoffs and even become a strong team in the Eastern Conference.

Of course, he doesn't dare to think about the championship, and he even doubts whether he can win the championship in this life is a problem.

Coming out of the bathroom, Price finally regained his previous calm, walked out with wet hair, wrapped in a towel around his waist, and was about to change in the dressing room.

But when he walked into the locker room, he found that the atmosphere in the whole locker room was very weird.

Why did the air pressure in the locker room suddenly become so low?It's completely different from the atmosphere when I just entered the bathroom, it's a 180-degree turn!

"What's going on?" Seeing Seuss, Smith and others hesitate to speak, Price wondered.

At this time, coach Guokas came to Price and pulled him aside.

"What's the matter, Matt?" Price wondered again.

"Sorry, Mark, although I don't think this is the time to tell you, but I think you should have the right to know. Just now, I received a call from the general manager that you have been traded." Guocas looked embarrassed , After struggling for a while, he finally said it.

"What? What's going on here?" Price froze as if frozen in place, not even noticing that the towel around his waist fell off.
