Chapter 342: Ready? "Son of Ohio", here he comes!
At the same time as the end of the game, the roof of the Age of Exploration Arena, several huge special searchlights, shot in all directions, and finally converged directly above the arena.
At the same time, the radio inside and outside the stadium was broadcast:
Tonight, we've discovered a new continent!
The sound is so loud and the radiation is so wide that it can be heard clearly even in "Li Wan Square".
Cheers filled the fan arena.
This was the idea that Griffin suddenly germinated after Li Wan named the arena "Age of Discovery".
In Staples, after every Lakers victory, the purple light sign in the Lakers parking lot lights up to inform all Lakers fans that the Lakers won the game tonight.
The Lakers' ability to sit at the top spot in Los Angeles forever is inseparable from the "Lakers culture" they have formed over time.
Here's what Griffin is doing right now:
Let Columbus hear the Explorers!
Li Wan, who was being interviewed, also heard this voice, and he subconsciously stopped what he was saying, followed the reporters with a smile, and listened to the end of the broadcast on the radio.
After Griffin had this idea, the first person to find was not the boss Gilbert, but Li Wan.
When he heard this idea, Li Wan immediately thought of "lighting that light" for the Kings in the future. It's really an exciting idea. So he agreed without hesitation.
Of course, the Explorers are very different from the Kings.
Compared to the Kings team with only 4 captains, the Explorers are undoubtedly more mature, and they have also experienced big scenes.
Like the Columbus fleet that sailed on a long voyage, they were a mature team that could travel far and wide.
Every victory is a new continent discovered......
until they finally found the "dream continent" they wanted to find. - That is, the O'Brien Cup!
When Li Wan said this victory slogan, Griffin's eyes lit up.
Because......
It's so much in line with the temperament of this team!
Li Wan turned his head to look back at the court, and he was blocked at the entrance, so he could still see the top of the court from his position.
Tonight is the night of "Ring Presentation".
It's just that there is no process for raising the championship flag.
It belonged to Cleveland, and along with all the honors, stayed in Cleveland.
The city needs a championship flag that is truly theirs.
"Now, we're on our way!"
Li Wan looked at the reporter in front of him again, and said this subtext very solemnly.
A reporter asked him to evaluate the performance of the two newcomers tonight.
Sa played 20 minutes and 13 seconds tonight, and for 10 minutes of that time, Tyronn Lue put him in the No. 5 spot.
He was already struggling at the No. 4 position, but in the confrontation with Howard, who can run and jump, the disadvantage was fully revealed, and finally the game was over, Xiao Sa scored 4 points on 2-of-5 shooting, in addition to 2 rebounds and 1 assist.
In addition, he made 3 turnovers.
As the 4th pick in the first round of this year, such a performance can be directly labeled as a "parallel import".
Well......
In fact, there are already reporters who think so.
Li Wandao: "He is still growing, some players need to be constantly tempered and adapted, in order to grow quickly, Domantas is undoubtedly such a player, this is only the first game of his career, he has the opportunity to look back on this game in the future, and say, 'Oh, I was still very thin at that time', let's continue to see what happens next!" ”
He didn't say much, and his words were full of protection.
Obviously, I was not disappointed in Xiao Sa's performance in the first game.
When talking about Brogdon, Li Wan's tone was much lighter.
Brogdon, who started the first regular season game of his career, received a pass from Chris Bosh at 2:14 of the first quarter and scored his first goal in the NBA.
At the end of the game, he scored 11 points on 4-of-9 shooting, 1-of-3 three-pointers, and 2-of-2 free throws, in addition to four rebounds and three assists.
As a second-round pick in his first game in the NBA, his performance was undoubtedly qualified.
"If I were him, I wouldn't hesitate to shout at the general managers of other teams that you didn't draft me in the first round, do you regret it?"
These words caused laughter from the reporters in the audience.
However, after thinking about it carefully, they found that Li Wan was ......
It's possible!
He wasn't a good guy in his rookie season!
Brogdon also smiled when he knew Li Wan's evaluation.
But in my heart, such an idea did pop up.
As Li Wan said, he wants to make other general managers regret not choosing him in the first round!
Of course, the 11-point performance in the first game alone is certainly not enough, he needs to keep working hard.
This fighting spirit was so burning that he couldn't sleep at night. Early the next morning, he showed up at the arena, and on the way there, he bought a copy of the Columbus Herald from the newsstand.
There was also a lot of praise for his professional debut.
It can be seen that his whole mood is even higher.
One day, he will ask the giants of the New York Times and ESPN to write about him in large paragraphs.
Once in the stadium, he was actively involved in training.
When Li Wan arrived, he was already soaked with an elastic vest, looking at his sweaty appearance, Li Wan smiled slightly, hiding his merit and fame.
There is always a reason to ignite the fighting spirit in the heart.
It's just that people are different from people......
The main thing to ignite Wiggins' fighting spirit is to let him see how much the fans love him.
At this point, after coming to Columbus, Li Wan still continued to exert his strength.
Come to think of it, Wiggins will soon feel the crazy "love" of Columbus fans piling up his locker room closet.
For Brogdon, it can't just be the love of the fans.
Counterattack is the ultimate goal of every second-round show......
This is the reason why Li Wan said that yesterday.
Look, how good it works.
Now, what Li Wan has to do is ...... Add another fire.
He slapped the ball on his hand and shouted at Brogdon, "That little guy over there who had a good debut, come over here and let me see if you're really adapting to this league!" ”
In this situation, Li Wan couldn't help but think of himself and Kobe Bryant back then.
At this moment, the roles are reversed, and there is one word in his heart:
Refreshing!
It's just that Brogdon is obviously much more restrained than he was back then.
Also, this guy's personality is very different from him.
One more ......
What has he achieved now, where can he compare with the "stingy snake" back then?
At the same time, a fat man in Los Angeles couldn't help but sneeze: "Strange...... Why did you sneeze all of a sudden? Got a cold? It shouldn't be! His gaze couldn't help but fall on his big belly, forehead...... With his physical condition, it seems that there is nothing that should not be done.
This retired is a bit self-indulgent!
I decided to work hard from tomorrow to get back to my old self......
"It's the same, Snake, you're going to start practicing! You're ......."
"2 years old" has not yet come out, Vanessa jumped out of nowhere and took her son away in a hurry. It is her life creed at this stage that she must not let her son stay with his "crazy father" for too long.
"Huh!"
Li Wan easily hit the shot, kept his shooting hand, and stood for about three seconds.
"Man, why don't you switch careers to become photographers? Your basketball skills are terrible! ”
Opposite him, Brogdon, who listened to Li Wan's mockery, had a collapsed face.
This was the first time he had a bullfight with Li Wan.
11 points and the final result was ......
11-0!
You know, this is still the rule of hair replacement.
Whether it is the offensive end or the defensive end, Li Wan made him feel what it means to be "suffocated"!
No wonder you can play "4 consecutive championships" with the New York Knicks......
Brogdon can be regarded as truly feeling the power of the "first person on active duty" at this moment. At the same time, I also understood how big the gap between myself and the top stars in this league is.
"Keep practicing, boy, at least, you can score a goal against me first!"
After speaking, Li Wan waved his hand and ran to warm up.
He didn't even sweat a bullfight with Brogdon......
Although this rookie is a label of instant combat power, it obviously has a way to go if he wants to adapt to the intensity of the NBA level. However, Li Wan is now speeding up his process.
Once Brogdon got used to his confrontation, no one in the alliance could lock him up completely.
No matter how many criticisms and complaints, Li Wan himself has to admit that the confrontation training with Kobe Bryant during that period really accelerated his transformation.
Even a player whose comprehensive ability can reach the passing line, has been playing high-end games, and the ability accumulated over time can also be crushed in low-end games.
For example, many players in the NBA water cooler have "killed all sides" when they go to the CBA, and there are many CBA players who have only experienced the NBA Summer League and have come back with a lot of changes...... That's it......
On Nov. 1, the Columbus Explorers continued their regular season run.
Their first game in November was at home against the Denver Nuggets.
The team has failed to return to the center of the league's spotlight on several rebuilds since Carmelo Anthony's departure, and they began to rebuild again last season.
They gave Jokic enough time to play in the second round to grow.
Jokic's final rookie season also lived up to the team's development, 80 games, including gradually settling into the team's starting position in the middle of the season, playing all season, averaging 10 points, 7 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game, in addition to averaging 1 steal per game.
This performance earned him the final "Rookie of the Year Formation".
After receiving the honor, Jokic said bluntly: "This award is an affirmation for me, and it makes me realize that maybe I'm not bad." ”
It's the kind of performance that made Nuggets management determined to rebuild with him, and they drafted Jamal Murray this summer, a more offensive finisher.
Head coach Mike Malone also said before the start of the training camp for the new season: "Nicola can do whatever he wants on the pitch in the new season, and I won't limit his talent!" ”
That's what he said, and that's what he did.
As you can see from the preseason, Jokic has become a ball-handler and operator on this team, and everyone in the entire Nuggets team gave the ball to him as soon as halftime.
Jokic, who averaged 18.4 points, 5.2 assists and 10 rebounds per game in six preseason games, also proved with his outstanding performance that he is indeed a typical European technical interior player.
He can act as a tactical initiator.
Li Wan watched him see the passes on the court one by one, and it was clear that it was from this season that Jokic began to metamorphose, taking one solid footprint after another towards the future regular season MVP.
Speaking of which, Li Wan once beat his idea.
When he was still in New York, Gobert was selected at that time, and D'Antoni gave him enough time, just to exchange Gobert for Jokic, who had not yet entered the league.
It's a pity that Dolan made a statement and ruined his plan.
By the time he fought hard in Cleveland, broke the "curse", and dedicated the championship to Cleveland, this guy was no longer a "thing in the pool".
Now this thought has also been left behind by him.
Because, he knows very well that after this season, Jokic's style of play will be fixed and become a "ball-handling core".
Not to mention that there is no chance of getting him over.
Even if there is such an opportunity, people who sit well in the position of the boss may not necessarily be willing to be the "second...... Just kidding, what do people want in the Nuggets, they are very free, come to sacrifice themselves and integrate into the team?
His current career has not yet reached that stage.
Now he should pay more attention to personal honor, hoping to shine personally.
For example, personal data, as well as personal ability to lead the team......
Of course, that's not to say Jokic is bad, it's nothing, every player has a period like that.
When this period passes, when he realizes that he can't lead the team to win the championship, and he is full of desire for the championship, he may be willing to take the initiative to surrender.
However, he is only 21 years old now, and Li Wan is already 28 years old, and when he thinks about it, at that time, Li Wan is afraid that he will have retired long ago......
Jokic performed well, playing all over the court, he cut down 17 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists, plus 1 steal and 1 block, and performed very versatile.
It's just that except for him, the performance of other people is not very good.
Especially the rookie Murray, facing Wiggins' defense all over the court, he shot 3 of 11, 0 of 3 three-pointers, and scored 11 points on free throws......
With such a performance, it seems that Jokic is a bit alone.
On the Explorers' side, Chris Bosh played very well, scoring 25 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks.
On the offensive end, you can hold the ball, open up space and cut down the air; On the defensive end, he is just as mobile as the perimeter, and he has excellent rim protection......
Chris Bosh played his second game in a row, fully showing him as the most current "No. 4 characteristic".
Wiggins also played well.
He finished with 24 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists......
The whole performance is also in line with the current trend: he can shoot suddenly, he can also pass the ball, he is personally on the defensive end, and he is also the leader of the whole court Jamal Murray, and welcomes him to the NBA with a domineering defense.
The silly smile after the game made Murray's mentality collapse:
Why am I not as good as a "fool"?
The Explorers have discovered a new continent!
Then with two straight home wins, they set off for Philadelphia to challenge them on the Philadelphia 76ers on their first road of the season!
To say that this Philadelphia, after selecting another "champion" Ben Simmons this summer, can be described as "the spring breeze is proud, and the Chang'an flowers are all night......
But what I didn't expect was that as soon as the closed training camp opened, the 76ers management announced a speechless news:
New section Ben Simmons has been confirmed to be out for the season due to injury and will not be able to make his "career debut" this year.
When the news came out, many media people were also stunned.
When Barkley talked to Kenny Smith about this on the show, he asked, "Are you saying the 76ers are lucky?" Or bad luck? ”
If they are unlucky, they will not be able to get the "champion sign", and it is impossible to be a "good sign" every year in the past few years.
But if you say they're lucky......
In the past three years, three rookies have been selected, but two of them have been "season reimbursed" in their rookie season!
One of them was even more ruthless, one "season reimbursement" was not enough, and two consecutive reimbursements!
However, the good news is that the rookie, who has been reimbursed for two consecutive seasons, is finally starting his rookie season after a two-year delay.
Although the outside world is not optimistic that he can play well.
But he himself was confident.
And on October 29, in the first game of the new season of the Philadelphia 76ers, Embiid really played an amazing performance......
In the 76ers' home game against the Thunder in a 97-103 loss, Joel Embiid started 22 minutes in his debut for the 76ers, scoring 20 points, seven rebounds and two blocks.
Although he lost the game, he was very efficient and could score 1 point in almost a minute.
At the same time, in the game, he also showed the basket singles skills that are almost lost in the league at the moment, and the "dream steps" simply stunned all the old irons.
In just this game, Ensai washed away the doubts on him.
proved with practical actions that he deserved the two-year wait of the 76ers......
Then the 76ers suffered a "three-game losing streak".
Coupled with this game with the Explorers, the 76ers suffered a "4-game losing streak" in the opening game......
Embiid is certainly impressive, but his current performance is not to the point where it can be linked to changing the tide of the game. To describe his performance in this game simply, that is: show but useless!
However, Li Wan watched Embiid's "gorgeous performance" on the court, and suddenly thought of the "regular season MVP" battle between him and Jokic in the future.
Now he found out that the two of them had a similar amount of time......
Suffice it to say that everything was arranged for the best!
Fate has long been invisible, and it has arranged a rival for you......
After beating Philadelphia, the Explorers continued their schedule and took the Bobcats from Charlotte for their fourth win of the season before they had yet to receive their first defeat of the season.
There's not much to say about the Bobcats this season, it's still Porzingis' path to relegation.
The only thing worth saying is......
Michael Jordan seems to have really gotten his head out.
Although the Bobcats' 16th pick in the first round in the summer was only Wade Baldwin, who disappeared after only three seasons in the NBA.
But in their second-round pick this summer, Jordan launched a "god hand" and actually selected Pascal Siakam, the future "inspirational man"! - Originally, Li Wan intended to choose Siakam, but he only considered that Xiao Sa also needed to level up. Hence the choice of Brogdon, which is more mature. The goal of the Explorers this season is definitely to win the championship, and it is impossible to have so much time for the newcomers to level up.
It's just that Li Wan didn't expect that he didn't choose Siakam, and the final result was...... Michael Jordan picked him over!
Seashell......
Why did it suddenly get through?
Michael Jordan: Again, I don't like this guy's small size, so I chose him......
"5 wins in a row, the Explorers without Leevan, and Chris Bosh and Wiggins!" 》
"Chris Bosh and Wiggins, who have not tasted defeat in the new season and are in better shape, are not "thin arms and thin legs"! 》
"Who dares to say that Li Wan has no helpers, Chris Bosh and Wiggins take the pressure and hit back hard!" 》
……
After defeating the Bobcats, the Explorers, who returned to their home court, cut off the Atlanta Hawks' "dog head" at the Age of Exploration Arena.
Five wins in a row to start the game!
More important than that......
Chris Bosh averaged 25.6 points, 10.4 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game in these five games, and Wiggins averaged 23.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game......
The two of them worked together to pick out four words towards Li Wan:
Team safety, don't read it!
Enjoy your "little long vacation", Li Wan!
Reporters asked Li Wan if he had ever thought that the two of them would play such a good performance in the new season, and Li Wan's answer was without hesitation: "Of course, Chris was the 7th guy in the regular season MVP that year, he let Mitchell win the best coach award in the first year of his debut, he knows how to lead the team, Andrew, not to mention, everyone knows what kind of talent he has, when he shows these talents, then ...... Only the sky is his limit!"
The league also announced the first week's "Player of the Week" award on the same day.
Chris Bosh and Wiggins are all named in it.
In the end, Chris Bosh also won the first "Player of the Week" award in the East, beating others, including teammate Wiggins.
When he knew the news, Kevin Durant, who had just gotten off the plane, couldn't help but sink his face. - The Bulls also won 4-0 in the first week, both in terms of his stats and Derrick Rose...... In his opinion, they are the most suitable candidates for the "Player of the Week". So in his prior understanding, he could lose the award, but it had to be his teammate Derrick Rose who beat him......
Right now......
Chris Bosh?
"Then let's see who will lose the first game of the new season tonight!" He doesn't have much ill will towards Chris Bosh.
If there is, purely because his teammate is Li Wan......
The reason why he was so excited was because of ......
He felt himself being underestimated by the Alliance again!
Kevin Durant hates the feeling of being underestimated.
Especially now that he's on the Bulls, it's even more annoying.
He showed his attitude from the very beginning of the game, and it can be said that he was full of firepower, and he scored 11 points in less than four minutes of the opening game...... With Derrick Rose and Jimmy Butler in check, Kevin Durant showed the firepower of his "strongest mercenary".
Tyronn Lue changed defenders twice, and neither Wiggins nor Chris Bosh could limit him.
From point to point, Kevin Durant's offense led the rest of the Bulls.
Derrick Rose and Jimmy Butler made their moves.
At the end of the third quarter, the Bulls opened up a 15-point deficit.
In the end, the Bulls, who played away from home, had the last laugh with a score difference of 118-99 and 19 points, breaking the "debut" of the Grand Navigation Arena.
"We have no opponents in the East!"
Leaving this sentence, Kevin Durant left without looking back, his back and temperament were full.
It's a big wave!
It's just that his words caused a huge discussion the next day.
It is true that his final statistics in this game were very good, with 38 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists, which simply embodied the words "human weapons" vividly. But......
Just defeated the explorer team without Li Wan, isn't it too crazy to say this?
Don't you think you're too handsome?
"Wait, wait for Li Wan to come back, give you some color!"
"Damn it, the season has just begun, don't think you're stable!"
"You know what? Kevin, you're not qualified to say such things, you've already lost Li Wan too many times! ”
……
Various attacks appeared under Kevin Durant's Twitter.
As Kevin Durant, who has been on Twitter for n years, he can see at a glance how familiar some of these IDs are, he taps the keyboard and faintly postes this sentence:
I was a Seattle-drafted rookie, not Oklahoma......
With just this sentence, these Oklahomans dressed as "Li Wan fans" stopped pretending and began to greet Kevin Durant and his family from various angles.
Kevin Durant was enjoying it, the keyboard was "crackling", and at the same time he couldn't help but muttered secretly in his heart:
Is this what it's like to be the enemy of the world?
Really......
Thai pants spicy!
He loves the feeling of being himself!
The 19-point loss was a big blow to the Explorers, who traveled to the San Antonio Spurs on Nov. 12 to play Game 7 of the regular season.
With Tim Duncan's retirement.
The core of this team is officially in the hands of Leonard.
On both offensive and defensive ends, he became the absolute core of the Spurs' tactical system.
It is also for this reason that Popovich can no longer limit Leonard's stats.
In the six games the Spurs have played so far, the "robot" has averaged 25.5 points, 6 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block per game...... The average firepower per game on the offensive end has come to the top scorers.
At the same time, the average shooting percentage can be maintained at 48%, 38% and 88% per game!
It can be said that it can fully afford the heavy responsibility of the Spurs' big core.
Under his leadership, the Spurs currently have a good record of 4 wins and 2 losses, which is certainly not comparable to the top Warriors and Hornets, but among the second-tier Western Conference teams, they are in fourth place in the West behind the Trail Blazers.
This shows Leonard's ability to lead the team.
You know, this is the first time he's done this role, and from that point of view, he's really done a good job.
In fact, the original ability and strength of his career at various times will not be questioned, he has no big problems, he is a player who can play and can play, the only problem is that he doesn't play......
At every turn, there are injuries and illnesses!
Of course, that's another story, and his attendance at the moment, who has just become the core of the Spurs, is still okay.
Even if there is an injury, I will continue to persevere. - Speaking of which, the Spurs colluded with the team doctor to adjust his injury estimate risk in order for him to play. Let's put it this way, a large part of the blame for Leonard's selfishness in the face of injuries came from Popovich and the Spurs.
The game was very anxious on both sides, and until the third quarter, the difference between the two sides was only 5 points.
In the fourth quarter, the Spurs suddenly changed lineup, limiting Chris Bosh with Leonard.
"Dragon King" faced "kawaii", and there was only one feeling, where is this guy "kawaii"? The whole thing is a rough man!
This "death entanglement" made him lose his temper at all.
The Explorers failed to score on three consecutive runs, and the Spurs steadyly stretched the deficit to 10 points.
Wiggins stepped up at this point and hit back-to-back shots, but only for a few rounds, and before Popovich could set things up, Wiggins himself died down.
This is Wiggins......
He can get the data he deserves in a game, and he can even step up and make a certain contribution at critical moments. But if you count on him to continue to output, it's really too much.
In one sentence, it is:
Born "two masters" and "three masters"!
With Chris Bosh restricted, the game ended up with the Spurs having the last laugh at 108-98.
Columbus bitterly swallowed the first "two-game losing streak" of the season......
After the game, Chris Bosh took the initiative to take responsibility: "I didn't do my duty, and when Li Wan is not there, I should play a tougher performance!" ”
If it was those rounds when Levan faced Leonard, Chris Bosh knew very well that he would definitely not drop the chain.
And this is also the biggest gap between him and Li Wan!
Wiggins also said after the game: "It was a game that should have been won, but we didn't take our chances and lost! ”
For the first time, Wiggins didn't feel anything during the "five consecutive wins" period, but the recent "two consecutive defeats" made him feel an unintentional pressure.
Originally......
That's how Li Wan supported me for two years!
The Explorers returned to Columbus overnight, and the next morning, in addition to Brogdon, Wiggins practiced hard.
After losing to the Spurs, Li Wan said: "I still say that only the sky is Andrew's limit, he hasn't reached his limit yet!" ”
Since Li Wan said that he has not reached his limit, then he has to work hard to squeeze out this "limit".
On Nov. 14, the Explorers sat at home and welcomed the Timberwolves to challenge. They easily won this game and avoided a "three-game losing streak". But on November 16, they tasted another defeat at home against the current third-place Raptors in the East.
While dropping to 5th place in the East during the regular season, they have a 1-3 record against the top four teams in the East.
In addition to beating the Nets in the opener, they next faced the Bulls, Spurs and Raptors, all of which ended in losses.
They lost to the Grizzlies, who are currently seventh in the West, on Nov. 18......
Of course, although the Grizzlies are ranked seventh in the West, their core roster is a team that has played in the Western Conference semifinals and belongs to the team that has experienced some scenes. When encountering a team like Columbus, which lacks the absolute core of Li Wan, it is understandable that it will burst out with resilience. What's more, the competition in the west is already greater than that in the east.
The sixth combat power in the west is equivalent to the fourth and fifth in the east......
But to put it this way, just like the Lakers who were seventh in the West later defeated the Grizzlies, who were second in the West, everyone knew that the Grizzlies, who were short of major generals, did not have an advantage in strength on paper in the face of the Lakers who were not injured, but the Lakers won, that is, the "Black Seven".
It's the same now, the Grizzlies are coming in sixth place in the West over the Explorers......
Chris Bosh and Wiggins' winning percentage against a playoff-caliber team is also worrying!
The good news is that the Explorers have played the first 9 games of the new season, and with one more game, Li Wan's "little long vacation" will be over.
At this moment, after Columbus experienced 1 win and 3 losses, he has long lost the spirit of the "5 consecutive wins" at that time, and he can't say anything "team safety, don't read", now they have only one thought:
Li Wan, come back quickly, our group of people can't bear it!
If you don't come back, the searchlight of the Age of Discovery will really become an ornament......
But......
"No matter what, we definitely can't welcome back Li Wan with a loss!"
In Game 10 of the regular season, the Explorers challenged the Sacramento Kings away.
The Western Conference rookie, who has Cousins inside and Evans on the outside, is currently in sixth place in the West, one pick above the Grizzlies. In terms of record and overall strength, it is a more difficult opponent than the Grizzlies.
What's more, it's still on the road.
However, Chris Bosh led by example after he spoke, showing his tough side from the very beginning of the match.
The same is true for Wiggins, who has pestered Evans on the outside.
The whole momentum is like playing in the finals.
This temperament made them "anti-customer-oriented" and played a leading position in Sacramento.
But the Kings did start to metamorphose from a belly team, and their counterattack was very fierce. Whether it's Evans' strong burst or Cousins' offense under the basket, the Explorers feel the pressure.
At one point, the score was reduced to within 3 points.
Only this time......
Every time there is a critical moment in the game, Chris Bosh or Wiggins will step up and pull the score back up.
Let's put it this way, this season, even against the Nets on the opening night, I haven't seen them so hard.
In the end, with the play of the two of them, the Explorers defeated the Kings by 107-100, 7 points on the road, gnawing this "hard bone" for them.
Welcome Li Wan's return with a victory.
They......
And it did!
Chris Bosh's stats in this game were fixed at 31 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks; Wiggins' stats were equally great, with 27 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists...... Until the whistle sounded, which symbolized the end of the game, their faces were still full of fighting spirit.
They haven't recovered from the mood of this game......
Li Wan looked at their appearance and knew very well that this was the awakening of the "champion bloodline" tonight.
Anyway, both of them have tasted the "champagne" of victory in the finals, they have experienced big scenes, and when their desire to win is at its peak, they naturally perform a lot better than usual.
For example, tonight, it has become a lot tougher at the critical moment.
Frankly......
This is what Li Wan has been looking forward to!
He expects that in these 10 fights, Chris Bosh and Wiggins will awaken the "championship bloodline" and enter another level.
In this last game, he waited......
Li Wan also said confidently after the game: "I believe that we will create a big scene this season, and everything is not a problem!" ”
His "right-hand man" is obviously more "thick" after experiencing the wind and rain!
On Nov. 22, the Explorers returned to their home court, this time against a tough opponent. - Portland Trail Blazers!
After recruiting Ruhr Deng in the summer, the strength of the Trail Blazers' starting lineup was recognized by the entire league.
And in the new season, they have also lived up to expectations, and they have won 9 and lost 1 of the 10 games they have played so far, ranking third in the West. In front of them, there is the Warriors, who are currently winning, and the Hornets, who are also 9-1. - The game they lost was given to them by the Hornets. So the Hornets were ahead of them.
But just losing to the Hornets isn't something to be ashamed of!
They themselves are the "big and small kings" of the west.
The Trail Blazers are strong and recognized by the entire league.
At least 4 "2" levels!
That afternoon, all Columbus television stations broadcast a preview of the game around 6 p.m.
After the preview, there are various wonderful goal highlights of Li Wan's career.
