Chapter 403: Record opening streak
The NBA's blocks and steals statistics began in the '73-74 season, when the Knicks' all-time assists leader and world-famous defensive coach Walter Fraser had entered the second half of his career and was no longer as brave as he used to be. If these statistics had been counted earlier, perhaps the team's all-time record for steals per game would have been his old man.
Li Wei didn't have time to celebrate his team-time steal record, because after playing the Timberwolves on the 11th, they were heading to Boston on the 12th to play another damn back-to-back away game.
When he came to TD North Shore Garden Arena, Li Wei heard someone in the audience shouting at him.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Li!"
Li Wei looked back, isn't this Ren Youcai?
He actually came to watch the game while studying abroad in Boston!
Then again, this thing can't even understand English, what kind of ball to watch, it's a waste of tickets!
"Mr. Li, Mr. Li!" Ren Youcai came close and said in his Korean-flavored, bullshit English: "I saw Fuzhen!" ”
"Damn!" Li Wei sighed.
Although Li Fuzhen is pregnant, the child in her womb is only two months old, so she can't see it. She must accompany Li Wei to the away game and do her duty as a secretary, and of course Li Wei did not object.
But now that he came to Boston, Ren Youcai saw his wife watching the game, and pounced after saying hello to Li Wei!
Immediately afterwards, Li Wei saw Li Fuzhen leave Ren Youcai and run over.
"Master, that guy is so annoying, I don't want to talk to him!"
Li Wei had no choice but to say: "Then you go back to the hotel and wait for me first, and I will go to you after I command the game." ”
"Wang!" Li Fuzhen nodded happily.
Li Wei called the team's logistics director and asked him to arrange a car to send Li Fuzhen back to the hotel, and Ren Youcai squeezed over again.
"Mr. Li, you help me talk about it, let Fuzhen talk to me, I really can't live without her!"
Li Wei said: "Ahem, I persuaded her just now, but she didn't listen, you wait, maybe she will change her mind after a while!" ”
It took Ren Youcai a long time to understand Li Wei's words, so he had to thank him again and ask Li Wei to continue to persuade Li Fuzhen.
In this game, Li Wei took a break from Da Yao and Garnett, and he himself grabbed a game yesterday, and he was also tired, and he also did not enter the activation list.
The Knicks' starting five are Nash, Houston, Maddy, Nowitzki, and Big Ben!
The Celtics' starting five are Kenny Anderson, Adrian Griffin, Paul Pearce, Antoine Walker, and Vitaly Portapenko!
Pierce, a sophomore, has not yet grown into a full body, but he dares to fight, shooting a game-high 20 times. It's a pity that Maddie's defense is very good, resulting in him being very iron, hitting only 6 of 20 shots and scoring 19 points!
Antoine Walker finished with 22 points and 10 rebounds on 8-of-16 shooting, but he didn't limit Nowitzki at all on the defensive end!
The sophomore-German started the game today and exploded, scoring 30 points on Walker's head!
Houston 16 points, Maddy 16 points, Big Ben 3 points and 12 rebounds, Nash 10 points and 10 assists!
Knicks 95:80, big win over Celtics!
The Knicks' longest opening streak in team history is in the 93-94 season, set by a generation of famous coach Pat Riley, 7 consecutive wins!
That's right, the longest opening streak in the history of the NBA is only 7 consecutive wins, and now Li Wei has equaled this record!
It is worth mentioning that at the moment when the team equaled the team history record, Li Wei was not on the sidelines, he ate two technical fouls in the first quarter today and was ejected, and the rest of the games were all directed by the chief assistant coach Byron Scott.
The fans were not surprised, they all understood that Li Wei had a temper tantrum and was not used to seeing the referee and definitely ate technical fouls. But the real reason for Li Wei's appearance was that he saw that Ren Youcai was gone, and he was afraid that he would find the hotel, so he provoked the referee and left work early.
Back at the hotel, Li Wei found that everything was quiet and nothing unexpected happened. Li Fuzhen took a bath alone in the presidential suite, so Li Wei had a lively time, and the two returned to the bedroom an hour later.
was busy feeding the dog food in the bedroom, Li Wei's phone rang suddenly, and it was Ren Youcai again!
On the other end of the phone, Ren Youcai said in broken English: "Mr. Li, I'm at the hotel where your team is staying, can you help me arrange a meeting with Fuzhen?" ”
"Why is this nasty guy again!" Li Fuzhen was coiled in Li Wei's arms and muttered softly.
Ren Youcai was overjoyed when he heard this, and it took him a long time to straighten out a few words: "Mr. Li, Fuzhen is by your side now?" ”
"Ahem!" Li Wei coughed twice, "I'm trying to persuade her, but she still doesn't want to see you, you wait for news." Talented, some things are in a hurry! ”
After speaking, he didn't care if Ren Youcai understood or not, so he hung up the phone directly.
On November 13, the Knicks returned to New York, and on the 14th, they hosted the Heat.
The Heat are the Knicks' old enemies, and the two sides have been inseparable from the beginning.
Li Wei played again today, and when Pat Riley saw this, he immediately sent Tim Hardaway to beat Li Wei.
Surprisingly, Li Wei's performance on the defensive end today was very good, limiting to a certain extent the aging Tim Hardaway, who is only 1.83 meters tall!
However, on the offensive end, Tim Hardaway also didn't let Li Wei get cheap, and Li Wei only scored 4 points!
At the last moment, with two key shots from Houston and Maddy, the Knicks won, and the away Heat lost the game 94-98!
With 8 consecutive wins in the opening game, Li Wei led his Knicks to write a new team history record!
On Nov. 15, the Knicks boarded a plane to the Cordorado Plateau and began their five-game trip to the West.
The first stop in a five-game road streak in the West is Denver, where the Denver Nuggets just moved to a new arena this year, which is familiar to fans for generations to come.
The first four games of this five-game road trip were four games in five days, so Li Wei decided to rest Nash in the first round, and Hornacek served as the starting point guard.
Hornacek played as a starting point guard when he was with the 76ers and formed a superrun backcourt with another sharpshooter, Jose Hawkins, both of whom shot nearly 40 percent from three-point range, with shooting guard Jose Hawkins averaging 20 points per game and Hornacek averaging 19 points and seven assists per game.
It can be said that the data of both men are good, and this kind of run-and-bomb style of play is also suitable for them, the only problem is that it is not suitable for the league.
The 76ers have a 26-56 record and are second to last in the East, after which the coach was fired, the team's scoring champion Jose Hawkins was sold, and Hornacek returned to the shooting guard position.
By the way, that summer, the 76ers won the list of eyes, and they finally understood the truth that an inch is long and an inch is strong, so they did not choose pennies Anfernee Hardaway, Jamal Mashburn and other powerful players, but hand-picked the 2.29-meter bamboo pole Sean Bradley as the leader!
The big bamboo pole failed to save the 76ers, so this team got the Tanhua lottery in '95 and the champion lottery in '96!
The NBA is a league that sits in rows and divides the fruits, and the emphasis is on robbing the rich and helping the poor, the worse you are, the more likely you are to turn the buck!
