The cheers of the home fans at the Wells Fargo Center almost never stopped, and the players of the 76ers also tried their best, but as the game deepened, the lack of their own strength still made the 76ers gradually be pulled away.

106-88, after four quarters of competition, the Clippers defeated the 76ers bloodlessly, won the 21st win of the season, and continued to consolidate their fourth position in the West.

At the end of the game, the fans gave the 76ers a round of applause, and unlike the previous rout game, the 76ers players can be said to have done their best in this game, and the final loss is also due to strength, although the defeat is still glorious.

The 76ers' best performance was the two interior players, Noel recorded a double-double of 14 points and 10 boards, and Okafor scored a team-high 25 points, plus five rebounds.

On the Clippers' side, Tang Shuai's performance has declined, playing 28 minutes, shooting 9 of 16, and getting 26 points and 5 assists.

After the game, the fans left the stadium one after another, and the players of both sides were ready to go back to the locker room after shaking hands.

However, Tang Shuai ran towards the 76ers' bench, where several 76ers players were surrounding Iverson to greet him.

"You are very talented, work hard, rebuild the team, God will take care of you." As soon as I ran to the bench, I heard what Iverson and Noel and Okafor were saying.

"We will." Both Noel and Okafor nodded.

At this point, Iverson's words should be finished, and the 76ers players have said hello to Iverson. They all walked towards the locker room.

Iverson was also ready to leave the arena.

"Hey, AI!" Tang Shuai took the opportunity to shout.

Shouting is heard. Iverson turned around and saw that it was Tang Shuai. Suddenly smiled and said, "Hey, Don." ”

Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, although he had never met Iverson, but on Twitter before, when he was treated unfairly by celebrities and the media, Iverson @ him on Twitter more than once, expressed support for him, and it was not surprising that he knew him.

He followed and ran in front of him. With a hint of excitement, he said: "AI, it's really unbelievable, I actually met you!" ”

Iverson smiled: "You played very well, I saw it on the sidelines." ”

Tang Shuai shook hands with Iverson, but he still couldn't hold back his excitement and said: "Thank you, you don't know how excited I am, you are my idol." ”

"That's a real honor." Iverson seemed pleased, and unlike his unruly personality on the court, he was relatively gentle off the court.

"Let's take a group photo. I'm going to be so excited that I can't sleep tonight. After Tang Shuai finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that he was not allowed to bring his mobile phone into the game, and he happened to see a photographer next to him, so he directly pulled him over to help take pictures.

After asking for the photographer's private number and repeatedly telling him to send the photos to himself. That's when I put down the new one.

Seeing Tang Shuai smiling like a child after receiving an affirmative answer, the smile on Iverson's face became even stronger.

When Tang Shuai came back, he put away his smile. Said meaningfully: "You are doing a good job of handling the All-Star vote right now. Don't care about those people's doubts, and don't try to argue anything. As long as you do your best, you are the best response to the doubters. ”

Tang Shuai nodded, what Iverson said was all about experience.

The two chatted a few more words, and Iverson's friend came to call him, and Iverson waved goodbye to Tang Shuai.

It wasn't until Iverson disappeared at the exit that Tang Shuai turned around and went back to the locker room.

Playing with Iverson, this game is worth it.

The January schedule was still relatively easy for the Clippers, and aside from the mid-month battle with the Thunder, the other opponents were under the team.

Tang Shuai's continuous outstanding performances made celebrities and the media silent for a while, and Skyles' unexpected failure to be selected as the best coach of the month also made the opponent's coaches dare not be as obvious as before.

After playing the game against the 76ers, the Clippers flew back to Los Angeles the next day.

The team next faced the challenge of the Pelicans and Jazz at home, and the two games were relatively easy, and the team won three consecutive victories, although Tang Shuai's performance was not as amazing as before, but with the help of his teammates, he was able to maintain the score at about 25 points.

But when the results of the second round of voting came out on January 9, those celebrities and the media couldn't sit still again.

Because the results of the second round of voting came out, Tang Shuai did not retreat but rose, and even surpassed Westbrook! Ranked fourth in the West!

According to this trend, when the final results come out, Tang Shuai is likely to squeeze out his teammate Paul and successfully be selected as the starter of the All-Star Game!

The sky is full of doubts from celebrities and the media.

"Big O" Robertson: It's ridiculous and sad, Russell Westerbrook, who has five triple-doubles this season, has become another victim of the rules system, who will be next? CP3 as a teammate? The league joke continues, and I can already predict the outcome of the third round of voting.

Barkley: I admit Don played a great game, but is this kind of voting really fair to Russell, to CP3?

Phil Jackson: A very talented young man, but the league is not lacking in young people, and he's nowhere near the point where he can dominate the game, and now being an All-Star, it's not necessarily something to celebrate for the league.

Angie: Although the All-Star Game is just an entertainment game, if the standards are lowered again and again, maybe one day there will be an "All-Star player" who can't play on the team, but can rely on the support of domestic fans to be selected.

Barry: If that's the final vote, I'm sure the league will lose a lot of supporters!

……

Tang Shuai sat on the sofa in the villa, looking at these doubts and bombardments, he really couldn't cry or laugh.

He put down the tablet, turned to Duffy beside him, and said, "Jaime, what the hell have you done?" ”

Duffy's face was full of smiles: "Of course I did what I should have done, this is already the second round of voting, and your performance is becoming more and more stable now, according to this trend, the All-Star starter is already a sure thing." ”

After listening to what Duffy said, Tang Shuai looked at those comments again, and unconsciously smiled bitterly.

beat Willis and Paul to play as an All-Star, and then form the weakest All-Star backcourt in history with Kobe Bryant?

Thinking about the possible scenes, he has a big head for a while, and the ghost knows if those stars in the east will embarrass him fiercely. (To be continued.) )
