You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 863
"That year should have belonged to us!"

"We deserved to win!"

After saying goodbye to Heinsohn, Wei Xia has been thinking about his words, not only because he said that the Warriors may also give up their previous efforts for similar reasons, but also because Havlicek in the old days is in the 1973 Heinsohn said.

He specifically mentioned "Hondo's injury", that is, the Celtics lost because of Havlicek's injury.

For some reason, it made him feel bad.

Perhaps it is because, since he acquired Havlicek's talent in 1999, the fate of the two of them has been closely linked.

Back at the hotel, Wei Xia called home.

It happened that Wei Mingliang answered the call, and Wei Xia took advantage of the opportunity to ask about the events of the year.

Although Wei Mingliang was still a child at the time, he also clearly remembered some things: "We won 68 games in the regular season. In the series with the Knicks, Hong Duo shoulder was injured -in the fifth and sixth games, he could only play on the left hand. In the seventh game of life and death, Fraser killed us. In the end, Knicks defeated the Lakers in the finals. Won the championship. In the next three years, we won the championship twice (74 and 76), but 73 years are our best team. "

Speaking of that year, Wei Mingliang had the same emotions as Heinsohn.

The 1973 Celtics were the best Celtics of the '70s without winning a title.

Wei Xia understood the situation, said good night and hung up.

He has to calm down.

Fans are actually this virtue.When you lose, you make excuses; when you win, you ignore them when similar things happen to your opponent.

If it is said that because Havlicek's injury caused the Celtics to suffer a great loss in 1973, the championship should be marked with an asterisk, then there are too many champions in the history of the NBA that should be marked with an asterisk.

Take the Spurs in the Duncan era.

The Spurs in 2007, in their series with the Suns, Horry knocked Nash into a billboard, which resulted in the suspension of Stoudemire and Diaw, and finally made them comeback. What if they didn't get suspended in Game [-]?
The Spurs in 2005, besides them, there were four competitive championship teams that year.The Pacers, the strongest team that year, were ruined by a group fight at the Palace of Auburn Hills; after the second seed in the Eastern Conference played their last elite season with the Sharks, Wade suffered a rib injury at the end of Game 62 against the Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals, which led to their exit. They were only one victory away from the final;

The Spurs in 2003, it must be said, that year was the worst season in the league after 1999. OK collapsed, and the Spurs' Manu Ginobili and Parker hadn't grown up yet. Their biggest competitors were not even the Nets that made it to the Finals, but the Kings and Mavericks in the West.But the king's core player, Chris Webber, tore his knee cartilage in the semifinals and bid farewell to the playoffs that year; the Mavericks, who won them and advanced to the Western Conference Finals, also injured Nowitzki's knee in the third game against the Spurs.

Because that season was so boring, apart from Duncan's quasi-quadruple double in the finals, fans couldn't even think of anything special about that year, and the knee injuries of Webber and Nowitzki were completely forgotten.

Then, the 1999 Spurs, the lockout + the fat league + the most ridiculous season since the 70s, needless to say.

Winning the championship requires not only strength, but also luck. Although the Spurs are always victims of famous scenes, their championship luck is undoubtedly strong.

Wei Xia has never considered these issues. Now, what worries him the most is the injury that Havlicek seems to be bound to suffer.

He was not simply sad for Havlicek, but also panicked.

Because their destinies have been closely linked.

Even, the trajectories of their careers are somewhat similar.

Join a famous team and play next to a great leader-Russell/Kobe;

They are the sixth person to enter the industry;
In the third year of their careers, they ushered in a glorious moment-"Wish/Havlicek stole the ball!"

When great leaders go away and they start to be called into question, everyone knows they are strong, but can you bring the team together?

It took Wei Xia five years to win the championship again.

It took Havlicek four years.

Now, Wei Xia is chasing his three consecutive championships, which will be the greatest achievement of his career.

What is the greatest achievement of Havlicek's career?Was it eight straight titles with Bill Russell?No, for a natural champion like him, who has won many championships in his career, it is difficult to say which championship is the most important achievement of his career.

But, if, if you have to say an if, then, if he can help the 1973-win Celtics win the championship in 68, then there is no doubt that this championship will be the greatest championship in his career.

It was at such a critical juncture that he was injured.

Even if he wins the championship twice in the next three years, it will be difficult to make up for the regrets in his heart.

Although nothing happened, and he didn't know what was waiting for him tomorrow, Wei Xia had reason to be anxious about it. The overlap between his career and Havlicek's was too high.

Will he face the same situation as Havlicek in the near future?

Will he, like Havlicek, fail due to injury in the most important season of his life?

Thinking of this, there was nothing but anxiety in his heart.

He fell asleep and came to the old time.

Havlicek in the old days is fighting for the regular season, and their opponent tonight is the Los Angeles Lakers.

As Wei Mingliang said, Cowens tore Chamberlain apart on the court.

Fist is afraid of the young, and Cowens' speed is too fast for the old Marshal Zhang.

Cowens also didn't talk about martial arts and was full of energy. He played the whole game and scored 39 points, 19 rebounds and 5 assists against Chamberlain, while Chamberlain on the opposite side only had 11 points, 13 rebounds and 4 assists.

The Celtics won smoothly and completed a four-kill sweep of the Lakers in the regular season.

In these four games, Cowens averaged 31 points against Chamberlain.As great as Chamberlain, he has also reached the age when his score is doubled by his opponent.

Other than that, there is nothing new to mention.

With his heart hanging, Wei Xia spent a day in the old days, and his consciousness left Havlicek's body and came to the arena.

He knows that the arena is like a mock exam, you can play past games, and you can also play future games.He just wants to feel in advance how Havlicek will play with a shoulder injury in the future.

He has to be prepared for that, and if he has a shoulder injury too, he can use it to practice.

He counted the light curtains carefully, and got it wrong the first time.

The game he picked was the Celtics' first-round game against the Hawks in 1973.

It just so happened that Pete Maravich was on the opposing team.

This is not a game. If you choose the wrong one, you can't quit halfway. Wei Xia has no choice but to clean up his mood and play a good game.

Maravich played awkwardly in the Hawks, he was never a core player, and he was not happy.

Wei Xia used Havlicek's identity to establish a close relationship with him. Maybe when his contract expires, he can use this relationship to contact him to play brother basketball in Boston.

In this case, history will be changed, and the NBA pattern in the 70s will be very different.

During the game, Wei Xia knew that the Eagles were not an uncompetitive weak team, and the Celtics did not play easily.

Although they didn't let Maravich become the core offensive player, several other star players in the team should not be underestimated.

Wei Xia only regarded this game as a pastime.

Even in the playoffs, Maravich made a set of offensive moves that shocked him.

It was high on the right wing, about the distance of the modern NBA [-]-point line, and the shot clock was running out. Maravich used a floating jump to push the ball far and one-armed.

The feeling of that ball is like Kobe's famous top-of-the-arc drifting three-pointer to kill the Heat.

"Boom!"

Fierce offense, elegant movements, without any flaws.

"Have you learned?" Maravich asked lightly.

In the next round, Wesha tried to replicate, but Havlicek didn't have Maravich's dexterous hands.

His shot ended with a strike.

"Hondo, what the hell are you doing?!" Heinsohn's roar followed.

"Sau Rui Sao Rui~~"

Weishhapi snapped, then turned back into pure Havlicek.

Focusing on cutting, running as the core, and catching and shooting as the main means of offense.

Even though Wei Xia has played hundreds of games with Maravich, the opponent will still bring him some new tricks that he has never seen before. His highly similar to Kobe, but elegant and extraordinary right-wing long-distance push, Wei Xia excitedly scored 44 points with Havlicek's body.

The eagle was knocked off the sky, and Wei Xia returned to the arena.

The game just now was considered a warm-up.

His heart was not as heavy as before. Human beings have never felt the same, but this time, he really wanted to empathize with Havlicek's most painful injury in his life.

He chose Game 1973 of the [-] Eastern Conference Finals.

Havlicek's injury occurred in the third game of the series.

The Knicks' iron-blooded defense is traditional. Riley in the early 90s just picked up what the Knicks had discarded.

This time travel was different.

In the past, as long as he walked into the light curtain, the dazzling light would make him close his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he was already in Havlicek's body, and the game was about to begin.

Today, he saw the pre-match conversation between Havlicek and Heinsohn.

"You're all dislocated, how can you still fight?"

"Left handed only."

Heinsohn was silent. He understood the temper of this old teammate. He also knew that all this was caused by the Knicks' "iron-blooded defense". At the end of the third game of the series, Havlicek was injured by the Knicks' Bradley. The diagnosis at the time was "dislocated", but Havlicek insisted on returning to the court.

Just because he knows what kind of person Havlicek is, he knows that if he makes up his mind, no one can stop him from returning to the court.Nobody can.

"Have you figured it out?"

Before Havlicek could reply, Heinsohn became impatient again: "Fart! You can't even put on your own clothes! Dave tied the fucking shoelaces for you!"
