Chapter 166: Trap
The All-Star Game ended with the Western Stars outscoring the Eastern Stars 139-130. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Merris scored 36 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks and was named the MVP of the All-Star Game.
This is a signal. The All-Star Game is not only a game for players to relax and fans to entertain, but also a clarion call. It means that the season is officially coming to an end, with those who can't make the playoffs having an offseason plan and teams that can make the playoffs consolidating their standings.
From now on, the strong teams will go into playoff mode, and the weak teams will play the game even uglier in order to secure the pick.
It's cold in Saravo in March, so if you want to go outside, make sure your clothes aren't warm enough, or you might get frozen.
The weather was cold, but the excitement continued as the Kings had their best season in franchise history. Not only is the style of play gorgeous, but also leads the league in the record rankings, and Wang Weiyu has ranked first among the MVP candidates for many issues.
Many years later, when people look back on this season, they will find that it is not only the Kings who shine in this season, but also a player.
He is the core player of the Celtics, Otard Bryan. He's had a great scoring season. The Celtics didn't have an entire lineup, but there were a number of games in which he forced his way to win games because of his fearsome attacking power.
Moreover, Otard is stronger, and when facing the league's top forwards such as Kant James, Toin Davide, Simon Oliver, and Wang Weiyu, he averaged 45 points per game on them, which is a terrible statistic.
As the top pick in the draft, people are looking forward to him. No one expected that his talent would be realized so quickly and his combat power would rise so violently.
He's no longer seen as a sophomore rookie. Because he did things that many superstars find difficult to do.
"Mr. Big Spectacle", "Superstar Reaper", "Away Ghost" and many other nicknames were placed on him. And the closest one is the "Jordan successor".
It's been a long time since a rookie in this league has been given this title, and that's the biggest compliment for a rookie. Who knows, Otard sneered at this title, "Jordan? He's fifty years old, why should I be his successor? I just be myself. β
The remark caused an uproar, and some media commentators who lived through the Jordan era began to attack Otard as being too arrogant. As a result, Otard scored an astonishing 50, 48, and 52 points in the next few games. Today, his scoring average has risen to 34 points per game.
Soon after, another outrageous remark was exposed.
"Los Angeles Lakers star Simon Oliver said that when talking to Kings star W, W said that he can keep Otard under 30 points."
These words stirred up a thousand waves, you must know that Otard has cut amazing scoring data against the top players in the same position, and now Wang Weiyu actually wants to limit him to score less than 30?
As incredible as it sounds, many reporters went to Simon for confirmation, only to get even more frightening news from him.
"I can limit Otard to less than 30 points and shoot no more than 40 percent." Speaking to the media, Simon said: "That's what W said, and there was Somo Felder there, and he could testify. β
Therefore, the reporter went to Somo again for confirmation. This guy didn't say a word, and directly took out the recording of that day, "I don't want to explain anything, the physical evidence is here, W did say it, and he also agreed with me to pass on this recording." β
As a result, the media heard Wang Weiyu's somewhat shocking remarks from the recording.
"I don't know why W said that, maybe he was just joking, but Otard is unstoppable this season, whoever it is, even the best perimeter defender of all time." -- The New York Times
"I always thought that Michael and Kant were two styles, these are two extreme styles, one is elegant and one is rough, representing two of the most popular court aesthetics, and Otard Bryan, I see those two things in him, and if you're a basketball fan, be sure to check out his game." - Charles Barkley.
"You're asking me to pick a successor from W and Ortaderi? I would choose W, not because he is better, but because I am not qualified to make Otard my successor, he will be the ruler of this era, and time will see everything. βKant James.
"Limit to less than thirty? No more than forty hits? Who is that man? Otard Bryan? Are you sure W isn't talking about Brian Ottard? Well, I heard that video, and I think W was joking, and if you guys are serious, it's not that W is crazy, it's that you guys are crazy. βChris Webb.
Such a thing will inevitably reach the ears of the parties involved, and the first to bear the brunt is Otard.
"Otard, I think you've already listened to that recording of W, do you have any ideas?" Questions from reporters.
"God gave us mouths so that we could say yes, I can't stop people from talking, but I can get people to take them back, and tomorrow night I'm looking forward to the Jacques Arena game," Otard said. β
"Are you going to whip up a whirlwind at Jacques Arena?" The reporter asked expectantly. "I could probably break the scoring record in that arena," Otard said. β
"Otard wants to break the single-game scoring record at Jacques Arena? He thinks too much, and he won't get more than thirty points. Wang Weiyu said;" Chris said I was kidding, actually, I wasn't. β
Wang Weiyu said: "I tell you very seriously, tomorrow night, Otard's score will not exceed 30 points, and the hit rate will not reach 40 percent. β
"W, that's Otard, he scored 50 points in front of you last time, where did you get your confidence?" The reporter asked.
Wang Weiyu smiled: "If you watched that game, you should know that he hit some ****-like god balls, I don't think that's his normal level, and I don't think God will always favor him." β
Both men were equally tough in the face of the media, making the match smell of gunpowder before it even began. The league began to hype up the matchup.
This is a more eye-catching battle than the finals, Wang Weiyu vs Otard Bryan.
That morning, the Celts arrived at Saravo airport on a connecting flight, and they refused to be interviewed by reporters, calling it a bus to the hotel.
"W, is that real?" Even though Wang Weiyu had admitted it, his teammates still didn't believe that he was so big and wanted to limit the scoring maniac's scoring and shooting percentage.
It seemed like an impossible thing to do. Wang Weiyu looked at them like this, with a helpless expression, "You look more scared than me?" "It's not wise to provoke a scorer, just as my opponent never wanted to provoke me." Raglan said.
"Are you praising Otard or praising yourself?" "Otard is not the kind of player who can't shoot when provoked, he gets angrier and braver. β
Wang Weiyu smiled, "Guys, we've been together for a long time, what kind of ability do I have, others don't know, don't you know?" "Butβ" Montgomery stopped talking.
"No, let's close our eyes." Wang Weiyu said: "Close your eyes. β
After speaking, the others closed their eyes one after another, and Wang Weiyu also closed them, and he said: "Don't treat the game as a heads-up between me and Otard. β
"I did boast about Haikou in front of the media, but I didn't treat the fight as a duel." Wang Weiyu smiled and said: "This is our chance to win. "How?" Raglan asked, closing his eyes.
Wang Weiyu said: "Hearing me say this, Otard will definitely attack like crazy at night, he will alienate his teammates, if his attack will not be able to drive others, even if he gets 60 points, 70 points, I believe that we will win in the end!" β
"But in that case, didn't you break your promise?"
"Who will remember?" Wang Weiyu opened his eyes, "People will only remember the winner, even if Otard scores 100 points, he will be laughed at by others if he loses the game." β
Everyone knows that everything was planned by Wang Weiyu.
The media people, Otard, all fell into Wang Weiyu's trap.
"W, this world is already so dirty, can't we have less routines and more sincerity?" Raglan asked with a sneer.
"Get out!" (To be continued.) )
