Chapter 718: Midnight Terror

Compared with the traditional giants, what a young team like the Bobcats lacks is toughness and endurance. Like the Spurs and now the Green Shirts, once they lead by double digits, they basically declare victory.

The Bobcats are the legendary nouveau riche, and now there is a special word for them, that is, the local tyrants. They were fast ahead and fast behind, and after Chamberlain, Iverson and Billups came on the field, they pushed flat to overtake the score.

Old Brown was in a hurry, and called two timeouts in a row to scold the players, but it was useless, the Warriors were different from them, like bloodthirsty wolves, once they bit the opponent, they would never let go until victory.

At the end of the game, Old Brown stepped forward to shake hands with Old Nelson with a gloomy face, and the latter was in high spirits, patted him on the shoulder affectionately and said, "Old man, did a good job today, your team almost won." ”

Old Brown grinned reluctantly, turned around and strode towards the players' tunnel, surrounded by reporters, who were pushed away by him irritably, and no longer had the handsome demeanor of the past.

At 98-87, the Warriors won their second three-game win by 11 points, and then they had to return home for Game 2 against the Celtics.

Between the eastern and western teams, there are two games per season, one played at their respective home stadiums.

The Celtics lost their last game in Boston to the Warriors, who also won by a narrow margin, 97-98, by just one point.

The Celtics had a chance to win that game, if Curry hadn't given up the chance to shoot in the last minute and opted for a more unsafe three-point shot and hit, if it wasn't for the last timeout, Nelson Sr. didn't call for the opportunity to arrange a strategy for Reaves, and if it wasn't for Chamberlain blocking Pierce's stunner, the Green Shirts had a good chance of winning.

But there are no ifs, and the reality is that the Green Shirts lose to the Warriors.

This time, the Greenshirts are here to take revenge, and they want to take out their opponents on the Warriors' home court and let the other side experience the humiliation.

The Green Shirts arrived in Oakland on the day of the Warriors' game against the Bobcats, in order to rest well and deal with the Warriors with the best body possible.

The Warriors are not underdogs, in fact they are the defending champions, and they currently have the best record in the league.

In order to have a better rest, the elder Nelson took Chamberlain to the press conference after the game, and asked the players to take the bus back, and he planned to take a taxi with Chamberlain to the hotel so that the players could rest a little longer.

The three-backing tactic is nothing short of torture for the players, and now it's a minute to be able to rest.

The atmosphere at the press conference was warm, Chamberlain did not gain momentum, praised the team that was being rebuilt, said that they were very good, their team won very lucky, the east is about to have a situation of separation, and he is glad that he is in the west, etc.

The reason why he was so friendly was because Chamberlain wanted the press conference to end early and then go back to rest.

The more anxious the more accidents, just as the press conference came to an end, a reporter answered the phone, and then got up anxiously and said: "Coach Nelson, Z first, your team bus has had a car accident, I think you should go and take a look." ”

Hearing this, the scene was in an uproar, and the old Nelson and Chamberlain were dumbfounded.

Players and managers are not allowed to bring mobile phones to press conferences, and reporters have to mute or vibrate.

"What's that? Got into a car accident? Old Nelson slapped the table and stood up, and the two hurried, and Chamberlain borrowed a reporter's phone to call West, but no one answered, but he did not remember the phone number of Billups or Iverson, so he could only do it in a hurry.

The reporter's newsletter was indeed even more powerful than that of the FBI and the CIA, and soon a reporter told them about the situation, saying: "You don't have to worry, your bus collided with a car, and no one was injured at the scene." ”

In this way, the old Nelson and Chamberlain could calm down, he ran back to the locker room to get his luggage and mobile phone, and called his teammates one by one, while the Bobcats prepared a Peugeot SUV for the two and drove directly to the place of the incident.

Curry's phone was connected, and Chamberlain and Nelson Sr. quickly understood what was going on:

It turned out that more than 20 minutes after they left the stadium, when they were traveling to an intersection in the center of the city by bus, a white car failed its brake system when turning, and the car crashed straight into the side of their bus.

The traffic police had arrived, and the front of the sedan was obviously damaged, while the side of the Warriors bus was recessed, but fortunately, there were no casualties.

The Warriors bus was also partly responsible for this incident, and the driver was told by Nelson Sr. to drive faster, otherwise he would have been able to avoid the car, but the main reason for this was that when the Toyota sedan, Chamberlain and Nelson Sr. arrived, the matter had been dealt with almost completely.

"I jumped out of the bus, went to see the car and opened the door," West told the police, "and there was smoke coming from the airbag and I immediately picked up a little boy out of the car, while my teammates, Evans and Ibaka, helped the lady get out of the car." ”

In a police car, a young white woman dressed as an OL was still in shock, she hugged a teenage child tightly, the child was not afraid, and stared at Iverson and the others with wide eyes.

Soon after, the young woman's husband arrived, and he comforted the white young woman, and then came over to thank West, saying, "Mr. West, my wife told me everything that happened, thank you, thank you for being the first to help us in this situation." ”

West waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, I think any man who sees a child trapped in a car in an accident has to take the initiative to rescue." ”

Surrounded by a large number of reporters, the spotlights 'crackled', illuminating the scene.

"But I have to thank you, I used to watch the game, and I heard the reporter say that you are a mad dog, I think that must be a rumor, you are a gentleman." The man said gratefully.

West is not allowed to sit on the table with dog meat, and everyone praises him so much, just say a few modest words, but the thing shook his head unhappily and said, "I'm a mad dog!" ”

The man's emotional intelligence was certainly not as low as his, so he said, "That's a good dog too." ”

If you watch American blockbusters or American dramas, you can find that Americans and dogs have a special relationship, and many people call a dog 'GOOD-BOY' or 'GOOD-girl' when they call it, and in most cases, calling a person with a dog is a compliment.

There are also many people in the NBA who use dogs as nicknames, the most famous being Robinson, the big dog.

The traffic police stepped forward to contact the elder Nelson and told him that the transcript had been recorded and that he could leave.

Old Nelson is physically and mentally exhausted, so don't go to fix the car, hurry back to the hotel.

Before West got into the car, the surrounding reporters and fans applauded, and many whistled at him, shouting, "Good dog! ”

Chamberlain pinched his shoulder and said, "Man, well done!" You're going to make headlines tomorrow. ”

He was right, and the next day many media reported on West's feat at the scene of the car accident, and the "Philadelphia Sentinel" commented: "Many people hide far away when they encounter a car accident, because some stupid Hollywood movies give people a bad impression that a car accident will explode, but some brave people will not do it." ”

"Last night, at the intersection of Charlotte's suburbs and downtown, a Toyota sedan with failed brakes crashed into a Warriors bus. West, a Warriors player, was the first to get out of the car, and when he found a child in the car that had been involved in the accident, he stepped forward to rescue the child without hesitation. Although there was no crisis in the end, his feat of rescuing the child from the crisis in the first place is still worthy of praise and admiration. ”

The California Journal also praised West, saying: "There was a time when everyone was questioning Delonte West's character, his teammates said he was mentally ill, his head coach didn't like him, and it seemed like he had been abandoned by the world." It turns out that this is a misunderstanding, he is just a good guy who is not good at expressing himself, and Mr. Evans, who pulled open the car door at the time of the car accident and rescued the female driver who was almost knocked unconscious, these are all good men! ”

A reporter followed the Warriors' bus, originally wanting to see if they could take photos of the players running to nightclubs to fool around, but the Warriors players were exhausted after back-to-back plays, and the little brothers under their crotches were soft all night, where was they in the mood to run to nightclubs?

However, they took photos of the first time of the car accident, and a photo of West carrying the little boy on his shoulder was well received, judging from the photos, West, who had a gentle expression at the time, and the usually arrogant mad dog is really a huge difference.

West's new girlfriend Wei Shengmei also said in an interview after participating in a golf game: "Delonte is actually a good man, but many people don't understand him, you can see him as a child, he is so naΓ―ve, childish and willful." But with such a man, you will be very relaxed, because he will never say one thing in his mouth and do another thing behind his back. ”

At the same time, Toyota's brake door has attracted attention, and after the repair shop, it is believed that the brake system of this Toyota car has a problem, that is, when you step on the brakes too quickly, the brake line will be tired, and the brakes cannot be carried out to the end.

After this result, Toyota's dealers in the United States were very unhappy, claiming that the repair technology of the auto repair shop was not up to standard, and also said that they would sue the auto repair shop.

However, the latter things made them anxious, because more of the same Toyota sedan had brake problems, which had not been blasted into the public eye before, so the impact was relatively small.

The U.S. Department of Transportation Management called up the crash vehicles in the last month, and found that the crash rate of Toyota vehicles had soared by 260% compared to the same period last year, and the owners invariably said that there was a problem with the brakes afterwards.

Now Toyota is depressed, the American media has been boycotting Japanese companies, and now that they have finally found an opportunity, how can they not go crazy and crack down? Toyota's brake doors suddenly became more and more noisy, and Toyota had to announce that it was recalling all vehicles of the same model released in 2010.

Toyota was depressed, and old Nelson was also depressed, he wanted the players to have a good rest, but when he returned to the hotel, it was two o'clock in the morning, and Blair's sleeper was simply confused, and when he got to the first room of the hotel, it opened, no matter whose it was, he rushed in first, hugged the bed and fell asleep.

The sound of snoring shook the sky.

The worst part was that they had to fly back to Auckland in the morning and then prepare for the evening game.

In the past, when taking a plane, the players chatted and talked nonsense together, but this time they slept non-stop one by one, and the old Nelson was old and young, looking at the tired expressions of his players, he was extremely sorry.

There's no way, old Nelson can only curse the bastard who arranges the schedule in the league, three backs, there is a kind of you who arrange me with a ten backs, and simply torture us to death!
