Please call me Ding Shenxian in the NBA

Chapter 191 188. Not Slaughtering Cows, But Slaying Dragons (Second Change)

Arenas is also a man who dares to speak. He couldn't help complaining, "I suspect that the chef in the hotel is a San Antonio Spurs fan."

The fact is that what he said was quite right. Everyone in the hotel, from the chef to the food delivery, was a die-hard Spurs fan.

They didn't poison him directly, but they didn't give Xiaoding fresh ingredients either.

Xiao Ding ordered a steak. As a result, they served Xiao Ding an expired steak that was going to be fed to the dog. In addition, Xiao Ding only asked for a 5-point thinner. The black pepper covered the peculiar smell of the steak itself, and then there was no more...

This matter did not cause trouble in the society, but Carlisle did not let go of the hotel's back chef. The chef who cooked this steak for Xiao Ding was directly fired by the hotel, and the police were still waiting for him to investigate.

So this is not a die-hard fan, but a brain-dead fan.

Xiao Ding has already led the team to win, there is no point in poisoning you any more.

Flying back to Dallas, Xiaoding has already shown signs of collapse.

Carlisle decided to let Xiao Ding take a rest.

But the opponent is playing the Miami Heat, and the team cannot live without him.

Xiao Ding rejected the coach's decision. He stood up and expressed his attitude of wanting to play.

Seeing Xiao Ding like this, Carlisle kept shaking his head.

"It's okay if you don't play the starter, don't rest me, I can't play the whole game, it's okay to play for a few minutes, just let me play!"

Xiao Ding spoke very sincerely, and his eyes were decisive.

He only has the option of winning in his mind, and he is willing to do anything as long as it can help the team.

Carlisle didn't want to interrupt Xiaoding's starting games, because with Xiaoding's personal ability, as long as he didn't play as a substitute in his rookie season, he might be able to break the NBA's record for consecutive starts, which is Malone's record of 1442 consecutive starts.

Carlisle's thinking is very conservative. Taking the example of Anthony and Paul, Ding is still younger. He was 18 years old when he played in the league for the 35th season.

Xiao Ding's goal is to play 20 seasons in the NBA like Corvo until he is 37 years old. Even if this consecutive start is interrupted, it will not affect his record breaking.

"Coach, this is the real preview of the finals. Don't you want to seize the only two opportunities to adjust your tactics against the Heat?"

Xiaoding just hit the heart of Carlisle.

Regardless of whether the Celtics still have power, the strength of the Heat's three people is not covered, and they will most likely rush out of the East when they get together.

The current record does not explain the problem.

And on the contrary, James, Wade and Bosh are not players who don't use their brains. They will soon find the password to win. This is an inevitable event.

As Yang Yi and the others said, the Heat came with a mission. It is normal for the record to fluctuate with the mentality, and the result will come naturally.

No matter how well the Celtics play, Garnett, Pierce, and Ray Allen are too old. They can't sustain a full season of 82 games. Even if they enter the upper half and enter the playoffs, what awaits them is a more difficult road to promotion.

In Carlisle's eyes, the Heat are their biggest threat to winning the championship.

Not to mention that the Mavericks have a feud with the Heat.

As they were talking, Cuban opened the door and entered the locker room. He looked at Xiao Ding anxiously, "I already know about you, and I will send a private detective to investigate that chef immediately!"

Cuban is not pretending to be a good person, he is really distressed.

Not to mention what he paid to get Xiaoding, but to say that he is really able to show 120% enthusiasm for his favorite player.

Seeing that Xiao Ding volunteered to play, Cuban and Carlisle exchanged glances. He felt that Xiao Ding could be allowed to play. After all, no one knows his physical condition better than Xiao Ding.

Of course, Cuban didn't say that he completely followed Xiaoding's wishes. He had a brief discussion with Carlisle.

"Ding, I know you want to help the team win, but the schedule is not friendly to us, so we will play well, but the result is not important, the important thing is to accumulate experience."

Carlisle deliberately made a detour, and then said, "You still continue to play the starter, but in the first quarter, I only allow you to play 2 minutes, you can play 3 minutes in the second quarter, 4 minutes in the third quarter, and 5 minutes in the fourth quarter. Add up a total of 14 minutes."

……

Xiao Ding showed a helpless expression.

14 minutes seems to be a lot for a patient, but the limitation means that you can't play to your heart's content. You always have to consider the time, and you may be replaced as soon as you feel good.

The three big brothers Nowitzki, Arenas and Kidd lined up to comfort Ding.

As a result, Xiao Ding smiled slightly. He digested negative emotions very quickly, "14 minutes is already very good. I will play it seriously and leave no regrets."

"Well, fight seriously!"

"We won't lose."

"Of course, we are number one in the league!"

The three of them were infected by Xiaoding's positive and optimistic attitude.

At first, the older stadium uncles were a little tired, but when their mood improved, their fighting spirit to win was also ignited.

For players, mentality is also one of the important factors that affect the outcome of the game.

Ding's performance made the atmosphere in the Mavericks locker room even more exciting.

In contrast to the Miami Heat, everyone was nervous to death.

Because James and Wade lined up and said, "We must win tonight. We must give the league the first blow and let them know who is the strongest team in the league!"

"And this is very likely a preview of the finals. It doesn't matter how you play in the regular season. I beat the Mavericks in the finals. Nowitzki is nothing special, and the Mavericks are nothing special!"

The two bosses both spoke, and the other younger brothers felt the pressure doubled.

Bosh couldn't figure out his position, so he took most of the scapegoat for the previous 7 losses.

This time he played against the Mavericks, he was very nervous, because if he lost, he might really have to go to work in the electronics factory...

James and Wade are the team's most wanted to win. Let's put it this way, the two top-ten scoring stars led the team to such a poor start, and they couldn't even forgive themselves.

In addition, James and Wade are very concerned about Ding.

The two of them still remember the scenes of playing against Xiaoding twice in the Olympic group stage and finals.

At that time, Xiao Ding was like a young dragon, showing his sharpness and not yet able to soar in the sky.

But when Ding ruled the NCAA and then entered the Mavericks to start the big kill mode, they knew that the once young dragon had grown into a giant dragon!

One of James and Wade is a king and the other is a hero. Of course, the two cannot tolerate Long running wild on their own territory.

So for Janeway, tonight's game is not about slaughtering a bull, but about slaughtering a dragon!

The former Dragon King Bosh said that I am just a backer, so I won't be slaughtered, right?
