Chapter 319: Playoffs Round 1

"Taylor, what did you just say?" Wang Meng opened his mouth wide and looked at Taylor dumbfounded, he never dreamed that he would hear such words.

"I say! I'm pregnant! Taylor frowned, stared at Wang Meng fiercely, and then said with a flushed face.

At this moment, Wang Meng and Taylor were sitting in a café with a very wonderful atmosphere quietly drinking coffee, but Wang Meng heard such a sentence, how could he not be shocked?

"Really? When was it discovered? Male or female? Wang Meng said loudly in surprise, his voice was very abrupt, and it sounded in the originally quiet café and suddenly ushered in an angry gaze.

"Be quiet, don't make a fuss, okay?!" Taylor felt a fever on his face, as if all the eyes of everyone in the café were focused on this direction.

"How can this keep me from making a fuss?" Wang Meng said depressedly: "Besides, this kind of thing should be a good thing, there should be no need to hide it like this." ”

"You know what?" Taylor shook his head and said: "You underestimate American reporters too much, many of them have nothing to do every day, and they are very annoying to follow stars like us and record our private lives and expose them." ”

Wang Meng smiled, he said indifferently: "What's this, the relationship between the two of us The paparazzi in the United States have long known, and it doesn't make sense to secretly shoot us, even if they know that you are pregnant, so what?" ”

Taylor was stunned, "However, once this matter is exposed, whether it is you or me, we will be pestered by reporters, after all, this kind of thing is definitely big news for us!" ”

"It's okay!" Wang Meng shook his head and smiled at Taylor: "You just need to give me a little time, I can take care of everything!" As he spoke, Wang Meng suddenly leaned over and stroked Taylor's face with his hand, "I know that your pressure is much greater than mine, and I have worked hard for you, but don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter properly." ”

Taylor was stunned again, looked at Wang Meng in a daze, and stopped talking.

"By the way, who knows about this." Wang Meng suddenly thought of something, and said to Taylor: "Also, you went to the hospital for an examination, were you found by the paparazzi?" ”

"I've only told Liz about this, and even my parents haven't been informed yet, so I want to tell them face to face." Taylor said. "As for the paparazzi, you don't want to think about what I'm doing? I didn't wear makeup that time? The doctor I was looking for was a private doctor, and he was so tight-mouthed that it was impossible to say it. ”

"Okay." Wang Meng nodded.

I'm going to be a dad??!

At night, Wang Meng was lying on the bed, and Taylor next to him had already fallen asleep, but Wang Meng tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Every time he thought that he was about to become a father, Wang Meng thought more and more, and couldn't sleep for a long time.

It is true that Wang Meng is very young, but in China, there are many people who get married and have children at a younger age, so Wang Meng does not feel a little panicked about this, but only excited, the excitement of being a parent.

When Taylor said that she was pregnant, Wang Meng had already made a decision, he wanted to propose to Taylor, and after thinking about it, Wang Meng still felt that it made more sense to use the NBA championship ring to propose to Taylor.

"I must win this year's championship!" Wang Meng's eyes suddenly emitted a cold light, and he said resolutely in his heart.

On April 22, the first game of the playoffs between the Hornets and the Clippers officially kicked off at the New Orleans Arena, home of the Hornets.

The spectators who arrived today all wore the home cheering half-sleeves distributed by the stadium entrance to the stadium, which was similar to the color of the Hornets' home jersey.

"Wow! It's a great feeling, isn't it? Oden looked at the hornets in the audience and couldn't help but sigh, "Why didn't you see such a powerful scene last season?" ”

"We were all new players last season, even Wang Meng and Gasol, which are relatively unfamiliar to the Hornets audience." Wallace said on the sidelines: "And at that time, we didn't shine as much in the regular season as we do now. ”

At the beginning of the game, Oden and Jordan's jump ball, the duel between the two bouncing men finally ended with Jordan winning, after all, this guy has the same name as the flying Jordan, and the bouncing is somewhat powerful.

As the point guard of the Clippers, it is Mo Williams, he immediately wanted to hurry up after receiving the basketball, this season's Clippers can be described as the real Clippers, including Harden, Griffin, these players play very passionately, after all, they are all young and have enough momentum.

However, Mo Williams' quick fall was quickly stopped, because in front of him, there was a yellow-skinned Chinese point guard who blocked him.

"Wang Meng!" Mo Williams' heart tightened slightly, as the Clippers who belong to the same West as the Hornets, they have played 4 games with the Hornets this season, two away and two home, but Mo Williams has not had the upper hand in the confrontation with Wang Meng in a single game. Even though he won the last game against the Hornets, Mo Williams still didn't find the slightest chance to come back.

Now, he has some heartfelt jealousy of Wang Meng, in front of Wang Meng, he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to give the ball to Harden.

After Harden took possession of the ball, he did not hesitate to break through, he used the pace of his feet to shake off the defender of Tony Allen, burst inside alone, and threw the basketball into the basket with a high throw before the Hornets' Gasol came up to make up for the defense.

The Clippers scored the first point of the game, but the game is not about whether the first ball is played or not to decide who wins or loses.

Soon, the Clippers were completely crushed by the Hornets.

Harden has been entangled with Tony Allen, and his shooting percentage has plummeted, while the Hornets have Wang Meng as the core, playing unhurried blocking and dismantling tactics, and the efficiency is amazing.

By the first quarter, the Hornets had built a 15-point advantage.

Subsequently, Roy, who came on as the sixth man on the bench, led the Hornets' benches to once again break through the Clippers' bench line, and the score between the two sides was further widened, and the difference reached 23 points.

The Clippers couldn't close the score gap for a long time, and it wasn't until the third quarter that they relied on Harden's sudden outburst and played a wave of 12:2, and finally pulled the score gap back to about 10 points, and then the Clippers were easily stabilized by the serious Hornets.

In the end, the Hornets easily defeated the Clippers 109-98 at home, won the first game of the first round of the playoffs, and the Hornets players who won this victory all seemed very calm, because the Clippers and Hornets are not opponents at the same level at all, although the NBA is always full of unpredictable surnames, but in the end, strength still determines everything.

In this game, Harden scored a game-high 28 points, but the shooting rate was only in the early 40s, and the Clippers did not have a helper who could help him somewhat, Griffin may be counted as one, but Griffin is not a player who can help Harden, on the contrary, Griffin wants to play well, and he needs Harden to make the ball for him.

In contrast, the Hornets didn't have a single player who scored 20 points, but the terrifying efficiency of seven players scoring in double figures made it easy for them to win the game.

In the post-game press conference, Harden was interviewed and raised the question of whether the Clippers could be swept.

"How is that possible?" Harden said angrily: "The Clippers are a very talented team, we have a lot of powerful players, I have to admit that the strength of the Hornets is indeed strong, but it is completely impossible to sweep the Clippers in the playoffs and qualify for Nash!" We're definitely going to bounce back strongly in our next game! Win a game! No! We will do our best to win and advance! ”

Harden's last words were wisely ignored by reporters. Trying to make the cut? Are you kidding, not every team can casually play Black Eight.

However, Harden's so-called strong rebound in the next game and refusing to be swept in the playoffs have been recorded by many reporters.

And at the Hornets press conference on the other side, reporters also raised the question of whether they will sweep the Clippers in the playoffs.

For this kind of problem, both the Hornets players and coaches have kept a low profile enough to make a series of official polite remarks without making it clear whether they can sweep the Clippers.

However, whether it is head coach Monty, or players Wang Mengga Sol Wallace and others, in their hearts, they have a certain degree of certainty and swept the Clippers in the playoffs to advance.

When hearing Harden's declaration, both the head coach and the Hornets players showed a malicious smile.

"Refuse to sweep? A strong rally? It's a bit too loud! As the main defense of Harden's player, Tony Allen sneered disdainfully, "Just because of him, Harden and the Clippers he leads also want to take a victory in our hands?" How naïve! This is extremely arrogant, but to the rest of the Hornets players, it seems to be taken for granted, no way, the current Hornets are too strong, unless something unexpected happens, it is difficult to lose the game.

"Allen, next game, I'll defend Harden." Wang Meng suddenly had an idea and said to Tony Allen.

Tony Allen was stunned for a moment, then nodded, with a gloating expression on his face, "Harden is going to be unlucky!" ”

When it comes to defensive experience and skill, Tony Allen is naturally the absolute number one in the entire Hornets. But when it comes to defensive ability, Tony Allen doesn't dare to say that he is the first in the Hornets, Wang Meng, Wallace and Oden's defense is not weaker than himself, the three of them are using their physical talents with defensive skills to defend players, and they are even stronger than themselves, especially Wang Meng, who always bursts suddenly from time to time, and is very handy when defending anyone.

"Harden is going to come back at some cost for what he said!"
