You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 899 A Hopeless Match

After the big victory, the next morning, the 76ers officially announced that Allen Iverson would be reimbursed for the season.

This time it is no longer a smoke bomb, but an official announcement.

The only hope for the 1ers, who are 3 to 76 behind, is that the two superstars Duncan and Iverson continue to show off, but now it seems that they will be blocked by the Pistons again this year.

"What's it like to lose to the same opponent for two consecutive years?" - "Philadelphia Daily" issued a feeling of helplessness.

Regarding this issue, the Los Angeles media said: "Hello, that is definitely a heartbreaking feeling."

For a while, those teams that were repeatedly injured by the Pistons showed up one after another.

Philadelphia, Los Angeles, New York, Indiana.

These four cities all have the same feature, that is, they have met the Pistons in the playoffs at least twice in the past five years, and teams like the 76ers and Pacers in the East are even worse.

Since 1998, the 76ers and the Pacers have each been defeated by the Pistons three times in the playoffs.

At this time, the order of the draft in the 2002 draft has already been released. (I always felt weird, and suddenly remembered that there is still no water)

The New York Knicks, who had the bottom record in the league, got what they wanted, or in a situation the league was happy to see, and won the right to start in the 2002 draft.

The Memphis Grizzlies, a bad team in the West for many years, have the third highest probability of picking the second pick. Mo Mengchen wishes them to draw Jay Williams—as for why Mo Mengchen wants them to choose this person, we will talk about it later.

The Bulls, who have been rotten for five years after Jordan retired, won the third pick. They may think of the draft 18 years ago. They used this pick to select the best player in history. This time they can have the same good luck ?

The Celtics and Timberwolves ranked fourth and fifth respectively.

Others, needless to say.

The Knicks won the No. 2002 lottery. Fortunately, this year is 2003, not [-]. Therefore, for Mo Mengchen, the scariest scene is nothing more than Penny teaming up with Yao Huang, not Penny teaming up with the Chosen One.

Yao Huang can be regarded as an above-average No. [-] pick. Under Van Gundy, he will still embark on the road of substantial weight gain in his previous life. Partnering with Hardaway, he can be regarded as another version of Yao Mai combination.

It's hard to say how much noise these two can make in the Eastern Conference, and it's even hard to say whether the Knicks will trade this pick for instant combat power.

Mo Mengchen doesn't think about this. Unless the Knicks trade the draft picks, the Knicks won't worry about it in a year or two. It will take time for Yao Huang to become the low-post killer we are familiar with.

There are many things to watch this summer.

The draft, the soap opera of the Lakers OK, the upheaval of the Pacers—according to the known history of Mo Mengchen, Bird joined the Pacers this year, kicked off the smiling assassin who poisoned the good young people in Indian City as soon as he took office, and recruited people who are good at Carlisle, who trained the youth army, thus pushed the Pacers to the right path.

This is something for later, what will happen in detail remains to be seen.

The next day, the Pistons returned to Detroit.

Although they lead the 3ers 1 to 76, the series is not over yet.

Iverson is down, and they still have Duncan.If you think you can easily end the series at home without Iverson, the Pistons will suffer a lot.

On the way home, Mo Mengchen could see everywhere in the city the celebration posters about him winning the MVP again.

For seven years, he has become an indelible urban imprint on the Motown.

His Chinese descent from Australia has become a symbol of Detroit.Here, you may not know cars, the mayor, or the names of the teams in the four major leagues, but you must know Dor.Mo.

"I have put that trophy at 250." Madeira said.

Mo Mengchen responded softly, the MVP trophy meant nothing to him—he was referring to the trophy itself, not the honor of MVP—even if the trophy didn’t exist, he was still the MVP, and the only value of that thing was that it would last for a few years Finally, when he goes bankrupt, he can hold an auction and sell it to fans with stupid money.

Hope that day doesn't come.

Back home, Ephraim wasn't there, Adrian wasn't there, and the triplets weren't there either.

250 quiet and quiet.

Mo Mengchen originally wanted to sit down and rest, but Medela brought her pet, the golden retriever she picked up outside the apartment, into the house.

Seeing a living creature carrying countless bacteria enter his home, Mo Mengchen stood on his head and scolded, "Why did you bring it here?"

"Buddy, call the boss!" Madeira said.

Buddy really barked twice, but it's hard to say whether the two barks mean "boss" or "stupid".

"Boss, it's very clean, don't you want to touch it? Buddy is so cute." Medela said, letting go of the leash in her hand, and the familiar golden retriever quickly rushed towards him with a bright smile. Ahead - facing the terrified Dor.Mo.

Buddy should be proud of that.

In the past seven years, no matter whether it is Jordan or O'Neal, Penny or Kobe, Stone Buddha or Webber, Iverson or Carter, none of them can make Dor.Mo show such an expression.

Just this one dog, it did it!
Buddy enthusiastically licked Mo Mengchen's cheeks, his furry body left countless marks on his body, and finally jumped under the sofa contentedly, gently pushing up the plastic ball that the triplets could not play with yet.

Mo Mengchen wanted to take a bath, put on a chemical protective suit, and then bring dismemberment tools to send this golden retriever who is not afraid of death back to Wang Xing. The earth is too dangerous for it.

"I should have taken a picture of your terrified expression just now." Madeira regretted that she didn't develop the habit of carrying a camera with her.

"You said such a cute dog, should it be steamed or braised?" Mo Mengchen stood up and approached Medela like a killer, "Do you want to eat charcoal grilled dog meat?"

"Buddy is so cute, how can I eat Buddy?" Medela knew he was joking, but she still acted pitifully. She should have been an actress in the first place, and then Rachel McAdams knew that there was another person in the world. The woman who looks exactly like her, the frightening thing is that Medela, a pirated figure, can instantly kill the original version on the spot.

Mo Mengchen, who has personally inspected the goods, can guarantee this in his own name.

"Help me wash my clothes, and then let this damn stupid dog get out of my house." Mo Mengchen took off his shirt simply.

Madela took his clothes in her hands, gently pulled Buddy's leash, and walked out of 250.

"Buddy, I bet you that the boss will love you more than me one day."

Two days later, the time came to May 2002, 5.

Game [-] of the Eastern Conference Finals.

There was no sign of Iverson in the 76ers, which made the Pistons fans at the scene relieved.

It's not that the fans are afraid of him, but after all, Iverson has averaged 30 points per game in the past four games and is the number one offensive point in the 76ers. If he doesn't play, the fans will feel more at ease.

Only Duncan, nothing to worry about.

And today, Eddie Curry still bears the oath of "I'm going to slash 20+10 on Duncan's head."

In the first round of the game, Curry used a jump ball to win to prove that he was right.

Then, the Princeton system started to work at the beginning, the ball moved smoothly, and finally came to the free throw line. Duncan gave Curry three steps and forced him to shoot.

Curry made a decisive shot and made a hit.

A good beginning is half the battle.

However, this turned out to be Curry's only score in the first quarter.

For the next 6 minutes, Duncan blasted Curry while doing willful defense of "even if our penalty area is penetrated by your teammates, you can't even think about scoring".

At the cost of sacrificing Curry, the Pistons scored 76 points against the 37ers in the first quarter, including 20 points in the penalty area.

You know, this is the restricted area guarded by Duncan. Losing 20 points in the first quarter is basically putting the grandma of the fans in the restricted area of ​​the 76ers to protect the basket. The defensive effect will not be much worse than this.

Curry went off the court in a desperate mood, scoring 2 points and 3 rebounds in the first quarter.

"If the number of fouls and turnovers is not limited, you have a chance to win 20+10." Mo Mengchen, who went off the court together, did not forget to sprinkle a handful of salt on Curry's broken heart.

There is a difference between Curry and Duncan. Even if he can start in a good state, the seasoned Duncan can quickly bring him back to his original form.

The state is a very magical existence. Some people have no state at the beginning and feel cold. The coach replaces him to rest for a while, and the hand feels hot when he comes up.

The state comes and goes as soon as it is said, and the most important thing is to have continuity.

Sometimes, a timeout can take away a player's good form.

The method Duncan adopted was a bit rough. The way he treated Curry was to hit him hard on the offensive end, which made him lose his temper, and he also tried his best to restrict him on the defensive end, making it extremely difficult for him to take every shot. Curry lost his temper when he played. , let alone state?
The coaching staff expecting Curry is doomed to be disappointed. They cannot expect Curry to fight against the best power forward in history.Oh no, in this era, Duncan is not the best power forward in history. His current historical status is not only inferior to Malone, but may even be inferior to Barkley.

In the second quarter, Brown replaced Duncan and let him rest for a while.

This is the discovery of his conscience, and it is also his final attitude towards the unchangeable result.

They are destined not to win, no matter what Duncan's performance is, if this is the case, let Duncan take a break.

In the 5 minutes without Duncan, Watson, Ginobili, Reed, Jerome Williams and Miller blasted 20 points and opened the point difference to 18 points in one breath. In the game, you can't let the game be marked as garbage time before halftime.

Shi Fu had no choice but to stand up from the bench and continue to play an impossible game.

When he was on the court, he saw Curry on the opposite side, and he was also preparing to play.

Yes, they can't win, but he can ravage this young man to his heart's content. Who calls him the future of the Pistons?
