Chapter 160: 19 Consecutive Wins

In the second half, the Knicks players finally regained their energy and took the lead in the fourth quarter!

At 101:95, the Knicks won 19 in a row!

Jerry Stackhouse scored 34 points, Grant Hill had 20 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds, and the double stars still shined, but the team didn't win!

On the Knicks' side, everyone's scoring was relatively average, Garnett 15 points, Big Z 16 points, Hornacek 16 points, Nash 15 points, and Houston performed slightly worse, scoring only 12 points on 3-of-15 shooting.

"This can't be done, you can't be booed by people, and you won't be able to vote." Li Wei patted Houston.

"Hmm." Houston nodded.

He was originally a rookie drafted by the Pistons and is seen as the future of the Pistons along with Grant Hill. But in 96, when his contract expired, he signed with the Knicks, and since then, as long as he returns to the palace in Auburn Hills, he is greeted with boos.

It seems that you have to be stronger in the future, and you can't play abnormally as soon as the fans boo!

On January 25, the team traveled from Detroit to Boston.

Li Wei whispered to Chuck Daley: "Chuck, I feel that 19 consecutive wins is our limit, and 20 consecutive wins are too difficult to fight. Even if we can win 20 in a row, we will definitely lose the away game against the Heat. ”

Chuck Daley said: "The Heat have been on a good streak lately, and Pat Riley is one of the top coaches in the league, so it's really hard to win with our current form. But then again, if the league is over 20 so good, there won't be just one or two teams in the league that can achieve this.

You're now on a 19-game winning streak, breaking the all-time record and third in the league, so let it be! I think the team has lost one or two games now, and cooling down is good for the development of the new people. Blindly losing streaks is not good, and blindly winning streaks are not necessarily a good thing. ”

"The extremes of things must be reversed?" Li Wei blinked, "You're right, I'm just too competitive, and sometimes I'm easy to rush for quick success." In this way, after playing the Celtics, whether I win or not, I will take a break and go home for the New Year! ”

"Chinese New Year?" Chuck Daley blinked.

Li Weidao: "January 28 this year is the most important festival for our Chinese, and it is also the first day of the new year, which requires the whole family to reunite. So I won't go to the away game against the Heat, you come and lead the team, I want to go home for the New Year! ”

Chuck Daley said puzzledly: "Isn't the New Year on January 1st?" Which New Year is the 28th? ”

Li Wei smiled: "Haha, don't you understand?" The calendar you use in the United States is the Gregorian calendar, promulgated by the Christian Emperor Gregory XIII, and we in China have not believed in Christ since ancient times, and the calendar used is not the Church of Cedus. The New Year in our calendar is January 28 in your calendar. ”

Chuck Daley suddenly said, "Oh, so January 28th is New Year's Day!" ”

Li Weidao: "Wrong, only this year is January 28th, and I have to look at the calendar to know what day it will be next year!" ”

Chuck Daley was puzzled, "Why, you guys don't have the same New Year every year?" ”

Li Weidao: "Our calendar is a lunisolar calendar, which is different from your pure solar calendar, in our calendar, the New Year is the same day every year, but in your calendar, it is a different day." ”

Chuck Daley blinked: "I don't understand, but it feels so powerful." ”

Li Wei said: "I'll explain it to you when I have time, and you'll understand." Chuck, I'll take a leave of absence for you to lead the team, okay? ”

Chuck Daly smiled: "I can lead the team, but I don't guarantee victory!" ”

Li Weidao: "It's okay, if it's me, it's estimated that you will lose, and your probability of winning is higher than mine!" ”

If Li Wei is an ordinary NBA head coach, then the Chinese New Year's Eve will definitely lead the team outside and cannot go home for the New Year. Because of the New Year's holiday, the team owner had to fire him.

It's a pity that he's not an ordinary coach!

Leading the team to play in the NBA is just his personal hobby, and if he doesn't even care about his family in order to play, it will be too forgetful.

This year is the first New Year after the breakthrough in the relationship between him and Luo Wei, and the first New Year after Xia Cuirong came to the United States.

Of course, before going home for the Chinese New Year, he still has to command the away game against the Boston Celtics and strive for 20 consecutive wins!

Located on the Atlantic coast of the northeastern United States, Boston is one of the oldest and most culturally valuable cities in the United States, and its history is home to the Boston Tea Party, which eventually led to the famous American Revolutionary War.

Boston is also the center of higher education and health care in the northeastern United States, and is the most educated city in the country with the highest population, known as the "Athens of America".

Harvard University, which has produced 8 U.S. presidents, 133 Nobel Prize winners, and has been ranked first in various rankings for many years, has its main campus in Cambridge, next to Boston, just across the river from Boston, and its business school and Harvard Medical School are located in Boston.

Another world-renowned university, often ranked second in the world after Harvard's Massachusetts Institute of Technology, formerly in Boston, has moved to Cambridge, just across the river, like Harvard.

In addition to Harvard and MIT, which are among the best in the world, Tufts University, Boston College, Brandeis University and other prestigious universities are also located in the Greater Boston area.

As for schools in general, more so here. The Boston metropolitan area is home to more than 100 universities, and more than 250,000 college students are educated each year.

"Cui Rong, let's go, take you to see my alma mater!" Li Weidao.

"Oh." Xia Cuirong happily took Li Wei's hand downstairs.

For her, playing away games is really a very comfortable thing, that is, she can accompany Li Wei alone, and she can also enjoy the scenery everywhere. I just walked around the Detroit Museum of Art the day before yesterday, and today I am going to visit Boston's college town.

Walking on the campus of Harvard University, Li Wei asked softly, "Cuirong, do you want to go to college?" There are still many prestigious schools in the United States, and as long as you work hard, it will not be a problem to come here to study. ”

Xia Cuirong said: "Don't, I want to watch you for Sister Weiwei, as long as you don't drive me away, I won't take the initiative to leave your side!" ”

Li Wei smiled: "You still have a strong sense of crisis. ”

Xia Cuirong said: "Of course, if I can't look at you, what should Sister Weiwei do if she asks me to settle accounts?" ”

Li Wei said: "She can trust me better than me." ”

Xia Cuirong said softly: "Do you think I'm pestering you, a little annoying?" ”

Li Weidao: "How come, it's too late for me to love you, but I think it's a pity that a studious person like you doesn't go to college." If you don't want to be too far from home, then go to school in New York, the best university in New York is Columbia University, not as famous as Harvard University, in fact, you can also consider Princeton, which is in New Jersey, that is, in the direction of Philadelphia, and it is relatively close to New York. ”

Xia Cuirong said: "Why do you always think that I can be admitted to a prestigious school?" I'm not a genius like you! ”

Li Weidao: "There is no unified admissions test for universities in the United States, and when our team succeeds, you put your qualifications as the president of the team to ensure that they rush to be admitted!" ”

"Giggle." Xia Cuirong smiled like a silver bell, "How is it possible, you just fool me!" ”

The two wandered outside for an afternoon before heading back to the hotel and getting to work.

At the end of the work, Li Wei hugged Xia Cuirong, and at the same time squinted his eyes comfortably, and began to think about the possible problems of tomorrow's customs closing battle before the year.
