Chapter 192: The Best of Western Week

The legend of Ding Mo'an will forever be recorded in the annals of NBA history.

Because he did something that even Jordan, the basketball god, had never done. Let's say that Ding Mo'an scored 32 points in his NBA debut, breaking Allen in one fell swoop. After Iverson, the rookie's best debut battle, then the next two games will be seen by everyone as a signal for the birth of another legend.

Three consecutive 30+!

This is the difference between a star and a regular player.

It is also an insurmountable gap in the careers of many players.

It's just that this chasm is like a puddle in front of Ding Mo'an, a twenty-year-old genius.

I don't know how many people will be more emotional than popular after tonight's game.

And the Bulls fans at the United Center Arena have a very poor experience watching the game at the moment. Ding Mo'an felt like making a record on the bull, as if they had eaten X. But the wood is already in the boat, and seeing that Ding Mo'an has cut 30+ is already an established fact, no matter how uncomfortable the Bulls fans are, they can't change it.

However, they can still express their dissatisfaction with boos, and at the same time booing Ding Moan, praying that Ding Moan will not cut more points, otherwise the Bulls will become a typical case of the worst metropolitan team in history. Originally, the metropolitan team, everyone wanted to go.

But after Ding Mo'an, the most unreasonable super rookie, refused, the people of the Chicago metropolis felt aggrieved. Originally counting on the team's selection of another extremely talented super point guard, Rose and the Bulls gave this guy who dared to turn down the invitation of the Chicago people, and look and see.

However, now the 32-point difference is still firmly there, slapping the Bulls fans in the face. values a super rookie, but this super rookie, while not birding them, also beat their team, no matter how you look at it, it's a miserable one. Bulls fans were apprehensive and booed Ding Mo'an at the same time.

Head coach Hollins replaced the starting lineup with a substitute lineup. Because this game, whether it is the strategic significance of the team or the personal goals of the players, it has been achieved. Hollins doesn't want the joy and sorrow to happen to this young team that is now full of vigor and is about to do big things this season.

After all, the health of the players is the foundation for the Grizzlies to turn over, otherwise if they are happy and sad, let Ding Moan or let the starting lineup, like Kevin. The hope of the grizzly bear's revival was hurt, and Hollins didn't know where to cry. So when Hollins replaced the starting lineup after a dead shot, the Bulls and Bulls fans alike breathed a sigh of relief.

The next game also entered garbage time. On the Bulls' side, they naturally replaced their starting lineup and announced their surrender. On the other hand, it was also because the physical fitness of the Bulls players was not much better, so the game ended peacefully under the tacit understanding of the coaches of both teams.

The Grizzlies lost to the Magic in their last game and ushered in their second win of the season. However, the Bulls scored 24 points and lost two games in a row, swallowing two consecutive defeats. The final result of the game between the two teams can't help but make everyone start to face up to the strength of the Grizzlies' youth army.

At the same time, the love and killing of Ding Mo'an and Ross, two friends, has also become a topic of conversation among everyone. Of course, Rose belongs to the side of the vanquished, and in the end, even if Rose has quite bright data, 16+7+8, but when he encounters Ding Mo'an's 31 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals, and 1 block, he has to kneel.

What's more, Ding Mo'an has cut 30+ data in three consecutive games, and Rose's data is not comparable. If one is an accident and two are luck, then three in a row is strength. But Ding Mo'an only showed a strong scoring ability in the first three games of his rookie season, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it blinded everyone's eyes.

And under such a strong performance, many people's doubts about whether Ding Mo'an could continue his performance in the NCAA in the NBA suddenly disappeared. And many people who jumped out to question it before have swollen faces at the moment, and they all became turtles with shrunken heads. Actions are always more effective than verbal cannons.

This is also the reason why Ding Mo'an disdains to shoot back at them in the face of these doubts, because when the facts are laid out in front of everyone, any doubts will become the icing on the cake now. After coping with the press conference, the media reporter who sang praises to himself, Ding Mo'an walked out of the door of the press conference hall and ran into Ross who was waiting for him at the door.

Because there was no magnesium light and camera lens, and the competition was over, Ding Mo'an also laughed and went up to give his friend a hug, and said with a victorious smile: "Derek, I won this game." ”

"Hehe......" Ross was very dissatisfied, Ding Mo'an came to reveal the scars, and he had a new understanding of the sharpness of the honest man's poisonous tongue in his heart. So Ross slapped Ding Mo'an twice on the back, which was counted as revenge, and then let go and said: "The result next time is not necessarily, when the time comes, I will win!" ”

"I hope so!"

Ding Mo's expression of non-concern really made Rose so angry that he wanted to overturn the friendship boat between the two, but Rose came to Ding Mo'an, not just to catch up. So after chatting with each other about their respective situations in the new team, Rose also said apologetically: "Ding, tonight Joaquin. Noah hugged you, and I apologize to you. At that time, I acquiesced in this matter, I just wanted my teammates to stop you with fouls, I didn't expect him to do so much in the end, you see my face, don't worry about this matter with him. ”

"Well, but you owe me a meal, and I'll bring Kexin to you when the time comes. Remember, at least a three-star Michelin restaurant in Chicago, or you're waiting for my revenge. "Ding Mo'an didn't put Joaquin. Noah, that little person, put it in his heart, and said that those who should fight back are all fought back on the court, Ding Mo'an is not the kind of person who is entangled.

After all, things on the court have already been spoken with basketball, and off the court, what Ding Mo'an wants is a quiet life, and Ding Mo'an's attitude also fits the last word of his name. A quiet, stable, and undisturbed life is Ding Mo'an's life creed.

Of course, Ross didn't pay attention to the matter of entertaining, first, compared to money, Ross and Ding Mo'an are both the kind of people who are righteous, and friendship is much more important than money. Besides, the current salaries of him and Ding Mo'an, as well as the performance of the two, the problem of money is by no means a problem that Ding Mo'an and Ross need to worry about.

Because now there are many people waving checkbooks and trying to deliver them to the two of them. However, Ross still gave Ding Mo'an a roll of his eyes and smiled angrily: "Still Michelin three stars or above?" I helped you catch up with Kexin, you only invited me to drink three bottles of Gatorade, are you embarrassed? ”

"Don't say it, I'm embarrassed. It's settled, and I'm gone. ”

Boom! Let Rose reveal the black history, Ding Mo'an was a little embarrassed on his face, but he was able to kill Rose for a meal, and Ding Mo'an was never soft. Without giving Rose a chance to refuse, he rushed back to the away team's locker room as if he had fled, and Rose was stunned.

After a meal for Rose, Ding Moan and the Grizzlies rushed to the airport non-stop and took a special plane back to Chicago. Although Chicago, the third largest city in the United States, has more bustling and exciting entertainment than Memphis, the back-to-back games have exhausted everyone, and they don't have the strength to play anymore.

Exhaustion, describes the current physical condition of everyone on the Grizzlies. However, fortunately, after the Grizzlies finished their game with the Bulls, they also ended the entire schedule of the first week of the season, allowing the Grizzlies to get a three-day vacation to adjust their fitness and condition.

However, Ding Mo'an felt that during the three-day holiday, he needed to hold a party for the whole team. The reason for this idea is also because of the infighting between Milicic and Batum, which made Ding Moan feel that he needed to take the opportunity of the party to give his teammates a chance to communicate.

Party is the best way to provide this opportunity. After all, although everyone plays on the same team, in a way, they are all colleagues. Although the NBA is different from working in a company, it is essentially the same. After all, everyone has their own lives, and it is impossible for every teammate to be friends.

Because even if you work at a company, you can't be a friend. Therefore, Ding Mo'an has no plan and cannot make all his teammates friends with each other, but in terms of the relationship between colleagues, he will make his teammates become more intimate colleagues, so that the relationship between teammates in the team will be more harmonious.

Lest there be another infighting like Milicic and Batum. Then not only will the relationship between the team's locker room be tense, but even Ding Mo'an, the leader of the team, is to blame and is labeled as having no leadership ability. Besides, the NBA is different from working in a company, there will be sorority, and everyone will have the opportunity to hang out together.

So what the team leader has to do is create this opportunity.

Therefore, Ding Mo'an also closed his eyes and thought about the place and method of the party. First of all, let everyone get together, and never go to Uncle Zhang's house. Ding Mo'an didn't intend to cause Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang to work hard for themselves because of himself, so Ding Mo'an passed it directly.

Ding Mo'an doesn't like to cause trouble to others.

So in the end, Ding Moan decided to go to Memphis to find a place to host parties and a company that planned parties, and set up his first party with the Grizzlies. And when Ding Mo'an was thinking about how to make the party a good one in his mind, there was a lot of noise in the conference room of the NBA league headquarters.

"Mr. President, let Kobe take the best of the Western Week."

One of the vice presidents in the conference room said loudly.

When the president of the alliance, David. When Stern introduced two selections and asked his subordinates to choose the most suitable one, the original atmosphere of harmony in the conference room was broken, and everyone was expressing their opinions.

And when the vice president proposed that Kobe be the best in the West, another senior executive of the league objected: "Mr. President, there is no problem in letting Kobe take it." After all, Kobe Bryant's popularity is still seniority, and it is there. But now that there is a superstar like Ding in the west, shouldn't we consider it and praise a newcomer? ”

"Kobe Bryant is now at his peak, even if he is cultivating newcomers, there is no need to be in such a hurry! Besides, the Lakers' record since the start of the season this year has been three wins and zero losses, and Kobe Bryant has averaged 24 points per game. Another pro-scientist stepped forward and retorted.

And this person's words were immediately vetoed by another praising faction: "Kobe Bryant is at his peak, of course it is okay to use him as a banner, but we have to have a long-term vision." Now, it is time to set up his successor. And Ding is the successor who is very compatible. After the game with the Bulls, Ding has cut 3 consecutive 30+ games, and Ding's appeal in the Chinese market is far stronger than Kobe, even if it is local, Ding's popularity has begun to soar! ”

"But Ding's team performance is only 2 wins and 1 loss, how can he convince the public!"

"You let the Lakers play against the Rockets and Magic two games in a row! Playing against these two top Western powerhouses, Ding was able to win one of them, which already made me feel incredible. ”

“......”

David sitting at the top. Stern closed his eyes and listened to the bickering between the Touding faction and the Touco. How could the president of the league, who has been at the helm of the league for 24 years, not know about the current ideological quarrel between the two factions. The Ding faction is because of the strong potential shown by Ding Mo'an, as well as the reason why he can't wait to swallow the Chinese market, so he hopes that this Western Week is the best for Ding Mo'an.

The reason for Kobe Bryant's current popularity is that Kobe Bryant is currently the league's biggest popularity, as well as the league's current signature yellow-green battle and Los Angeles, the second largest metropolis in the United States, so he feels that he has to maintain the current situation. But it is undeniable that Ding Moan and Kobe Bryant are the two people that the league focuses on cultivating today.

Of course, if it weren't for Ding Moan and Kobe, the popularity and performance of the two are very similar to the team's attention. Stern didn't need this emergency meeting at all. You just need to look at who has better data to make a decision.

But in the current situation, who to give this week's best week, it is absolutely necessary to make a decision after careful consideration, otherwise it will cause twists and turns.

But David. Stern still favored Ding Mo'an in his heart. After all, Ding Mo'an's popularity in China was as early as the Chinese competition. Stern had a clear idea. Coupled with Ding Moan's three consecutive 30+ performances, he led the team to play a good performance from the top Western teams Rockets and Magic, which was enough to make David. Stern was tempted.

and David. Stern understands very well that the current share of the NBA in the American market has actually reached a bottleneck. At the very least, in recent years, the NBA has definitely competed like the NFL and MLB, the two major sports predators in the United States. Then the NBA can't stand still in the past few years, so the Chinese market is David. Stern's important breakthrough point to break the bottleneck.
