Chapter Thirty-Six: Just a Shooting Star?
When a player enters the NBA, he has to be ready to be a man.
Every day of training, competitions, road trips, will crowd their lives.
After playing the Nets at home, the Pacers players boarded planes to New Jersey, where they will play the Nets back-to-back.
Li Cheng checked the "top basketball system" on the team's charter plane, and his 100% shooting rate in the first half gave him an experience bonus again, and he rose 2 levels in a row again, and he rose to 9 levels at the same time, and his experience rose to more than two-thirds before stopping.
"After playing this game again, you should be able to reach level 10, right?!" Li Cheng thought in his heart.
……
After the team's charter flight landed in New Jersey, they boarded the team's bus and headed to their hotel. Lying on the bed in the hotel, Li Cheng couldn't sleep a little, he had already slept on the plane, and now he only felt that he was very energetic.
Turning to look at Granger next to him, the cry was already ringing.
One night, Li Cheng tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep, trying to touch a cigarette to smoke, and found that since he was ordered by Granger to quit smoking that day, there was no such thing on his body. Looking out the window again, I saw that the sky was already dark, and the sound of birds had come in.
I don't know how long it took for Li Chengcai to fall asleep groggily, as if he hadn't slept for long, Granger woke him up.
Li Cheng got up from the bed in a daze, he found out for the first time that insomnia was such a painful thing.
It has been said that if a player doesn't get a good night's sleep, he can't find a match for his defense on the field, and then he stays half a beat slower. And if he doesn't sleep well for three days, he's like he's drunk on the field.
All day, Li Chengcheng was dizzy. Dizzy shooting training, dizzy to the Continental Aviation Center to warm up. Luckily, he took a nap before the game, but it didn't seem to work!
"Top of the Basketball World" can help him recover quickly, but he is now mentally exhausted and has nothing to do with physical fitness.
The players were waiting in the locker room for the upcoming game, and Granger had already noticed that Li Cheng was not in shape, he touched Li Cheng and said, "Lee, didn't you sleep well last night?" ”
Li Cheng nodded and said, "Now I don't want to play at all, I just want to take a shower and go back to sleep." ”
"It's nothing, just get used to it." Granger said, "I did this the first back-to-back game, so don't worry too much about your numbers tonight, just do your best." ”
"Hmm!" Li Cheng nodded and responded.
And the game started soon, this game Tianchao 5 did not turn, but Chinese fans still followed the game through various channels, and most of them watched the text live broadcast.
When Li Cheng was substituted in the ninth minute of the first quarter, he also yawned.
"." Li Cheng scolded secretly, then cheered up and began to run in a familiar way.
When the Pacers attack, Li Cheng usually keeps running. He's a guy who lives on the run, but today this guy is obviously not as good as the other day.
Tinsley dribbled the ball inside, burst under the basket, and then twisted his body to pass the ball to Li Cheng.
Li Cheng took a step with his left foot, and after a sharp stop, he immediately turned to face the frame, and at the same time he received a pass from Tinsley.
It's his favorite rhythm, and Carter, who was marking him, has been thrown half out of his position, and it's enough space for him to shoot. So, he no longer hesitated and rose from the ground.
But today, after he jumped, he found that his waist was weak, but because of the good training before, his hand shape has not changed. Forcing his balance, he threw the basketball in his hand.
The basketball smashed into the hoop and stumbled into the hoop.
"Li Cheng**'s run got another chance, he shot in the middle and hit!" Chinese fans are very happy to see such words. But they didn't arrive, and Li Cheng, who threw this ball, actually breathed a long sigh.
In fact, after the ball was shot, Li Cheng himself was not sure. When he saw the goal scored, he exclaimed, "Good luck." ”
But today, Li Cheng's little luck obviously couldn't help him to the end, and on the defensive end, he was simply hung up and beaten by Carter.
The Canadian Flyers, who were ready to take revenge at home, were not polite to Li Cheng at all, and Carter, who was full of energy to win at home, showed his All-Star strength from the beginning of the game.
Carter's strong body hit Li Cheng again and again, and after knocking Li Cheng completely away, Carter jumped and threw the basketball straight to the basket.
This is just the beginning of Carter's singles against Li Cheng, today's Carter is in full swing, breaking through the weak Li Cheng again and again.
On the defensive end, he was completely blown out by Carter, and on the offensive end, Li Cheng was also very out of shape, and he only hit 2 goals in 10 shots in the first half, scoring 4 points.
The game entered the halftime break, but the Chinese fans saw such a sentence. At the end of the first half, Li Cheng only hit 2 goals in 10 shots and scored 4 points. The Pacers trailed the Nets 41-55 on the road. In the first half, Li Cheng was completely out of shape, hoping that he could regain his touch in the second half. ”
The topic of Li Cheng was once again talked about by everyone on the Donkey Flutter forum.
"Li Cheng is not in the state at all today! Could it be that today is his true strength? "This is someone who has never believed in him.
"We have to believe in Li Cheng! Even Kobe Bryant can't guarantee 30 points per game, right? "These people are all loyal fans of Li Cheng, and they have believed in Li Cheng from the beginning.
"Li Cheng's outburst came very suddenly, but no one can guarantee that he will be like a meteor, beautifully streaked across the world, and then fell quickly." This group of fans has no ill will towards Li Cheng, but they don't believe in myths very much, and believe in reality that is too dreamy.
However, some American fans began to cry out again, "Back to nature? Luck doesn't always favor a person. ”
"China can't produce defenders at all, and only Yao Ming can play in China."
"In the past few days, there has been news about this Chinese every day, and Lao Tzu is tired of watching it, and now he can finally disappear from Lao Tzu's eyes."
In the discussion of the fans, the second half of the game began, and Li Cheng regained some form a little, but it was still much worse than the hot and hot feeling of the first two games.
He hit two shots in a row after he came out in the third quarter, but then he found it difficult to catch the ball from inside the three-point line.
The opponent really made a targeted arrangement, Li Cheng was replaced after missing two goals in a row, and O'Brien also knew that he was not in shape today, so he replaced Li Cheng, so as not to lose his confidence.
When Lee was down, the score was 62-78 and the Pacers trailed by 14 points.
