Chapter 355: Winning streak

Vagat Fernández, an immigrant of Mexican origin, has been in Saché for almost 20 years, where he is already a respected carpenter, and has even held his own private exhibitions in Saucasa on a small scale, featuring a variety of wooden works of his own making.

Unlike many of his fellow Mexicans, he did not have the habit of organizing gangs and drug trafficking, and his status as an artist gave him a very stable income and a happy family.

In addition to his job, Vagart is actually a loyal football fan, and it can even be said that Wagart is more fond of football to some extent, when he was unable to become a football player and eventually began to learn how to become a carpenter from his father, and now it turns out that Vagart's talent is indeed in the carpenter's profession.

Compared to the romantic style of South American football, Wagart actually likes the atmosphere of European football more, he does not always order tickets for the Champions League final, but Wagart still likes the "coquettish" Barcelona the most among European teams, which is also the team he dreamed of playing for when he was a child.

However, as a local resident of Sagart, he is also a small celebrity, and he has also read about the Runners in the newspapers, and he went to watch the Runners' second regular-season game at the invitation of an old friend.

So, after this game between the Runners and the Denver Nuggets, Wagart was crazy about this new young team.

With a swift offense, a variety of combinations, and a rain-like three-point game, Wagart, who originally thought that basketball was a tough confrontation between ten muscle sticks on the court, even felt that the Runners' style of play was so artistic at this time, which gave him a desire to create.

So Vagatte, who has always considered himself an artist, screamed like a normal Sachusetts fan in the prime first row of the Energy Balance Arena, and he also cheered for the Runners' brilliant goals like a child.

Just like Wagart, many Saskata fans returned to Energy Balance Arena after the first game, and in Game 2 of the regular season for the Runners, they regained the excitement of the Kings reaching the Western Conference Finals.

In the same way as the first game and the Trail Blazers, the Runners picked up speed as soon as they started the game against the Nuggets.

The Nuggets' defense and offense are not comparable to those of the Trail Blazers, who were taken aback by the Runners' swift play and fell into passivity at the start.

Although most teams in the league noticed the Runners' bizarre style of play after the first game against the Trail Blazers, and the Nuggets also made a tight defense before the game, they still underestimated the power of Wang's current style of play and the potential of this young runner team.

The players selected by Wang Lei before the start of the season seem to be the frustrations in each team, but the real situation is that these players have undiscovered shining points, and they do not play much role in the league's now popular tactical system, but in the hands of Wang Lei, their shining points are discovered and amplified one by one, and in the game, the opponent finds himself facing more than just five powerful starters, and the substitutes of the runners can also play gorgeous offense and quick counterattacks.

129-96, the Runners beat the Nuggets by 3-pointers.

Turgun focused on assisting his teammates in this game, playing 37 minutes and aspiring with 22 assists and 19 points on his account.

The top scorer in this game against the Nuggets was Salich, who scored 37 points on consecutive shots, along with six rebounds and four assists.

The entire fourth quarter of the game turned into garbage time, and the Nuggets dropped the game early.

After two big wins, the Runners shook the league by the way, their style of play, their three-pointers surprised all the teams in the league, and in the history of the league, no team has dared to shoot more than 40 three-pointers in a game, and hit a staggering 24 times.

Even Blair Bowman, who has been a power school in the past and is more adept at breaking, made three three-pointers in this game.

After these two big wins, the Runners' ball market immediately became popular, and the team's jersey sales began to soar, with Salich and Turgun's jerseys being the hottest sellers.

At the same time, in the eastern Asian continent, the new runner team also added hundreds of millions of Asian fans overnight, and these fans basically went for Turgun and Wang Lei.

After playing two consecutive home games, the Runners rushed to Indiana, where they faced the Pacers in the middle of the East on their first road trip of the season.

The Pacers are a strange team in the middle and east of the league, they have always gone against the trend, they play the inside offensive and defensive routine when the league is prevalent in organizing forward tactics, and they play playmaking forward tactics when center tactics are prevalent in the league now.

However, although the Pacers are the so-called "anti-trend", in Wang Lei's view, the Pacers' slow-paced style of play is not much different from the current popular style of play in the league, but the Pacers have weakened the role of the center and amplified the role of the forward.

In the face of such a team, Wang Lei also made appropriate adjustments, the Runners took the initiative to slow down the pace, cut off the connection between the Pacers' forward position and the guard in the defense, and at the same time pulled away from the four in the offense, and then let Blair Bowman completely release his heads-up ability.

The Pacers are frustrated at this point, they have faced a lot of strong opponents before, but they have never faced such a targeted opponent.

Defensively, Blair Bowman's constant offensive play alone has left the Pacers' core forward players struggling to cope.

And the Pacers didn't dare to wrap up Blair, because they had also studied the first two games of the Runners, and no one could guarantee that the Runners didn't have a touch today, and if they shot more than 20 three-pointers like they did in the last game against the Nuggets, it would be over.

So under the strong attack of Blair Bowman, the Pacers' forward players were directly abolished, and they had no time to organize the offense, and they couldn't even play, because Blair made the Pacers' starting power forward and starting small forward two fouls each in the first quarter.

At 112-88, the Runners scored a drop in points, but they allowed the Pacers, who had a decent offense, to score only 88 points.

After three consecutive wins, no one can ignore such a fast and windy runner team, who are tied with the Los Angeles Lakers and Houston Rockets for first place in the West with three straight wins.
