Chapter 199 The most lucrative temporary task

12月4日晚，稍早一些进行的国王队和掘金队的比赛已经提前打完了上半场，半场14投6中砍下18分6篮板2助攻1盖帽1抢断的克里斯.韦伯正在接受着训练师的按摩。

For Webber, the offensive efficiency of 14 of 6 shots is certainly not high, but the Kings led by a big score of 56:42 in the first half. Webber was joking with the trainer while relaxing his muscles. Obviously he was in a good mood.

"Hey, Chris, what are you doing?" Divac suddenly said, "Turn the TV to the Michigan Sports Channel, it's live broadcasting the Pistons-Wizards game!"

Webb wondered, "What's so good about the Pistons versus the Wizards? The difference in strength between the two teams is huge?"

Divac said in surprise: "Don't you know yet? Tonight Michael has a big explosion, and Darling-Wang is fighting against each other!"

Weber blurted out, "Michael? Which Michael?"

Divac laughed and said, "Which other Michael is there? Besides that man, which other Michael do you think can go up against Darling?"

Weber couldn't help but swear: "Fuck! Isn't it?"

Divac quickly found a remote control board and switched the TV to the Michigan Sports Channel. Immediately on the TV screen was the extreme tie rod that Jordan leapt into Wang Dalin, Da Ben and Hamilton.

"Damn it! Isn't it?" Weber, Divac and the trainer swear at the same time.

……

At the same time, the Heat's game against the Clippers has just ended in the first quarter, and highlights of the Pistons' first-half game against the Wizards are being played on the big screen in the stadium.

Eddie House, who scored 6 points and 4 assist on 8 of 1 shots in the first quarter, looked up, and couldn't help but turn pale in shock: "This shit...Michael has completely returned to the top tonight! Is that brat Darling so fierce now? Can he even compete with the peak Michael?"

Grant, who scored 2 points and 6 rebounds in the first quarter, couldn't help but wondered: "Did Michael take the rejuvenating drug? The point is... Even so, Darling can still be on par with him. It's just crazy!"

At this moment, Pat Riley is probably the most surprised person on the Heat's bench... Of course, he is also the one who regrets the most!

"Darling, you are really good! In just one season, you have already become the strongest superstar in the league!" Riley thought silently, "I should have kept you at all costs last summer... Oh, I really regret it!"

……

In the distant "Energy Solution Center Arena" in Salt Lake City, the Lakers' away game against the Jazz had just finished the first quarter, and Kobe was looking up at the scene of Wang Dalin and Jordan fighting on the big screen.

Although there was no expression on his face, there was already a huge wave in Kobe's heart... "Darling, you kid... you actually fought so fiercely with Michael while I was away?"

On the other hand, O'Neal on the side smiled heartlessly and said, "Darling is so good, Michael is so big, and he can still lead the Pistons to the lead? Kobe, we can't be outmatched by Darling...Give me a few more good balls later, I must beat that old guy Carl tonight!"

Kobe said angrily: "Carl scored 6 points in the first quarter, how about you?"

O'Neill said unconvinced: "I also scored 5 points!"

Kobe sneered at him and said, "You only scored 5 points for 5 shots, and he scored 4 points for 6 shots. Who beat who?"

O'Neill said stubbornly: "How many more passes are you going to give me? As long as I can get the chance to attack, I will definitely blow him up...I promise!"

Kobe sneered: "I hope so..."

……

Although the game between the Pistons and the Wizards was not scheduled to be broadcast live across the United States, the ratings of Michigan Sports Channel, which broadcast the game live, suddenly soared, even higher than the two major TV stations, TNT and ESPN.

David Stern, who was watching the live broadcast, was so regretful that his intestines were almost green. He knew that this game should be broadcast live in the United States no matter what... How much money would it cost to save?
Mark Tatum on the side observed the situation and said in a timely manner: "Mr. President, I suggest that we should arrange more national live broadcasts for the Pistons next season. What is your opinion?"

"Very good, but we need to discuss with the broadcaster about the national live broadcast that can be changed this season!" Stern nodded. "As the defending champion, the Pistons should have more national live broadcasts. Our previous consideration was a bit wrong!"

The previous considerations... Stern is of course the main one to blame, but the Adam joke on the sofa is also inseparable. He is the person in charge of this part of the work.

"Mr. President, the results of the first round of this year's All-Star voting have come out. Michael's votes are a bit unsatisfactory, and he may not be selected for the starting lineup!" Tatum continued, "I suggest that the league should take advantage of his outstanding performance in this game to immediately build momentum for him and try to get more fans to vote for him. Do you think it's okay?"

Stern smiled and said: "Very good suggestion, just do as you want... This year is the last All-Star tour of Michael's career, we must let him enter the All-Star Eastern Conference starting lineup!"

Adam Joke interjected from the side: "Sir, I think... as long as we do something with the fan votes, it will be fine. Why bother?"

The smile on Stern's face disappeared suddenly, and he said with a serious expression: "Adam, you have to know that the fans are not fools, so don't use this little trick to fool the world...Mark, you should do it yourself to promote Michael. It must be done beautifully, understand?"

Tatum hurriedly said: "Sir, don't worry, I will definitely be able to handle it!"

……

The Pistons have played more than 8 minutes in the third quarter against the Wizards, and Wizards coach Doug Collins just called a timeout.

The head coaches of the two teams are in full swing to deploy their troops. In the past three minutes or so, they have let the main players take a rest, but judging from this posture, they are going to replace the main players again.

就在第三节这8分多钟时间里，乔丹7投3中砍下9分2篮板1抢断，王大林则是6投3中砍下7分3篮板5助攻……不论两队如何提升防守强度，两人的进攻效率依旧高得可怕。

In fact, Carlisle didn't want to replace Wang Dalin to take a break, but if the opponent didn't replace Jordan, he didn't dare to remove Wang Dalin rashly. Both of them were jealous tonight.

Stackhouse, who was sitting next to Jordan on the Wizards' bench, suddenly said, "Michael, I think you should trust us. You're so tired of playing this alone..."

Coach Collins nodded and said, "Michael, I think what Jerry said makes sense. After all, you are 39 years old, and Darling is only 20 years old. You don't have to push yourself so hard, do you?"

Jordan raised his head to look at his teammates, and saw Laettner pretending to be relaxed and said with a smile: "Michael, your score is indeed higher than Darling, but his assists beat you. Do you want the media to describe you as a selfish player?"

At this time, Laettner is probably the only one in the entire Wizards team who can talk to Jordan in such a relaxed tone, except for head coach Collins.

"Okay, I'll pass the ball to everyone!" Jordan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "But you have to throw that damn ball in, or I'd rather believe in myself!"

Stackhouse said with a smile: "Michael, don't worry, I will definitely score!"

Laettner laughed: "When I was emptied in the middle distance, you remember to pass the ball, trust me!"

Haywood also said: "I have a lot of opportunities at the basket tonight, as long as I can catch the ball, I will definitely score!"

……

On the Pistons bench on the other side of the field, Wang Dalin was taking a deep breath, his energy had been exhausted by more than half.

As long as the physical value of 91 is not encountered in an extremely difficult situation, it should be more than enough to play for 40 minutes, but tonight Wang Dalin and Jordan have been entangled with each other, and both offensive and defensive ends have to do their best. The physical exertion is really not small.

Wang Dalin probably didn't expect that he would encounter such a situation. The battle between him and Kobe in G1 of the finals a few months ago is still vivid in his memory, but at that time he had a "good condition BUFF" on his body, and his physical exertion was much slower than usual.

Fortunately, he still has a lot of physical strength left, otherwise, no matter how unwilling he is, he has no choice but to give up.

Thinking of this, Wang Dalin couldn't help admiring the peak Jordan's physical strength... This is simply a super physical monster. According to the system score, it must be 99 full value, right?
No wonder Kobe often wakes up at four o'clock in the morning to train... If there is no such abnormal training intensity, how can he develop enough physical fitness to score 81 points in a single game?
As the game continued, Wang Dalin found that Jordan seemed to have changed... He didn't continue to score points with Biao, but started to pass the ball to his teammates actively.

Of course Wang Dalin was very happy about this!
He already scored fewer points than Jordan tonight. If he continues to play like this, even if he can score a large triple-double of 40+, he will not be able to complete the task... Now that Jordan starts to pass the ball, his scoring momentum will slow down, and Wang Dalin's opportunity will naturally come.

So Wang Dalin no longer passed the ball, he put all his attention on the offensive end, and would attack directly every time he got the ball.

在第三节最后三分多钟时间里王大林4投3中，其中三分球3投1中，外加罚球2投2中，砍下了9分2篮板，而这段时间里乔丹2投1中仅得到2分，不过他却送出了3次助攻。

三节战罢，王大林总共砍下43分12篮板8助攻1抢断1盖帽，而乔丹只有40分9篮板5助攻3抢断1盖帽进账，王大林明显占到了上风。

But there was still a full quarter of the game, and the Pistons were only ahead of the Wizards by 5 points. The game was hard to tell, so Wang Dalin took the initiative to apply to Carlisle to play the entire fourth quarter. He didn't want to be overturned by Jordan at the last minute.

At present, Wang Dalin's first goal is to lead the team to win the game, and his second goal is to surpass Jordan in individual points... Before the game is over, these two goals are just goals!

Jordan's scoring average in the fourth quarter of his career is not low, and he can often stand up at the most critical moment... In other words, Jordan often believes in himself more at the most critical moment, and he probably won't continue the second half of the third quarter.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Jordan scored a difficult mid-range throw back against Wang Dalin's defense, and then Wang Dalin hit a "Golden Rooster Independent" with a tough "ANSWER-BALL".

Aside from the shocking point battle between Wang Dalin and Kobe a few months ago, it has been a long time in the league that two leading stars scored 40+ points in a game, so one can imagine how happy the home fans of "Palace of Auburn Hills" are...well, both happy and a little worried!

The two scored 10 goals each in the first 5 offenses in the fourth quarter, but Jordan scored all two-pointers, while Wang Dalin scored a three-pointer, so he scored 1 more point than Jordan in the fourth quarter.

The individual scores of the two have reached over 50 points, which is a rare spectacle in ten years. In addition to the major media competing for attention in this game, many NBA stars are also paying attention...whether they are active or have retired.

The "TNT Non-Famous Crosstalk Combination" which is broadcasting the game between the Celtics and the 76ers is no exception. Although they are explaining the battle between Iverson and Pierce, they still can't help talking about Wang Dalin and Jordan.

"Charles, who do you think will win tonight, Michael or Darling?" Smith couldn't help asking, "You know what I mean, besides the outcome of the game, I'm more concerned about who will win in their personal duel!"

Barkley smiled and said, "Of course I'm on Darling's side. After all, last season he took me to win the championship ring... But you also know my relationship with Michael. Tonight, this guy is like taking a dope. It's hard for me to determine who wins and who loses!"

Smith laughed and said, "Shall we make a bet?"

Barkley waved his hand and said: "Forget it, in fact, no matter what the result is tonight, neither of them is a loser!"

Smith nodded and said, "That's right...it's so rare, why did you suddenly become more in-depth today? Could it be because you got the championship ring, and even your ideological realm has improved?"

Barkley blurted out: "I'm already very deep, okay? Well, okay, I admit it! Since getting this championship ring, my ideological realm has indeed improved a lot. I don't think we should bet on players... I feel very disrespectful to them!"

Smith immediately replied: "Then why did you bet on Paul and Allen's personal performance just now? Don't you look down on Paul and Allen?"

Barkley: "..."

……

In the last few minutes of the game, Wang Dalin and Jordan's personal offenses were not very accurate. Both of them exhausted too much energy, which would definitely affect their offensive efficiency.

However, Jordan can still cause the Pistons players to foul by constantly attacking the inside, and then stand on the free throw line to continue scoring.

Wang Dalin is also attacking the inside of the Wizards, but his ability to draw fouls is obviously not as good as that of Jordan... Probably the referees are more willing to take care of superstars like Jordan, right?

At the critical moment, Hamilton suddenly stood up. He received two passes from McGinnis and hit the middle distance, continuing the offensive firepower of the Pistons.

With the last 38 seconds left in the game, the Wizards were still 6 points behind, so they had no choice but to implement foul tactics.

How could Wang Dalin miss such a great opportunity to earn points?

He directly grabbed McInnis's job, and was fouled by the Wizards after receiving the bottom line twice. He made 6 of the 5 free throws...

比赛终于结束了，活塞队以108:100有惊无险地战胜了奇才队，王大林也以59分14篮板9助攻2抢断1盖帽的数据击败了乔丹。

本场比赛乔丹39投20中，其中三分球4投1中，罚球19投17中，砍下58分11篮板7助攻3抢断2盖帽……不愧是巅峰乔丹，果然恐怖如斯！
Winning by only 1 point, Wang Dalin couldn't help calling it a fluke... But if Jordan's three-pointer is more accurate, or if he scores one more free throw, he will not be able to complete this task!

In fact, the fans are even more regretful that Wang Dalin was not able to hit a large triple-double of 50+ again. After all, he was only short of one assist tonight.

In the early morning of the next day, the overwhelming media reports arrived as scheduled, and TNT and ESPN also produced talk shows again.

The major media love Wang Dalin and Jordan so much... You two continue to fight like this, and we won't have to worry about running out of news material this season!

On December 12, the Pistons challenged the Eagles away.

In this game, Wang Dalin continued his good touch, but he didn’t take many shots. He mainly played high-post support. He made 15 of 9 shots, including 7 of 3 three-pointers and 6 of 5 free throws. He scored 26 points, 7 rebounds, 10 assists and 1 steal.

The Pistons also easily defeated their opponents 109:94, winning their 19th consecutive game since the start of the season.

打完这场比赛后，王大林以场均42.5分9.5篮板9.5助攻0.5抢断1盖帽的数据再次当选周最佳。

Just over a month into this season, Wang Dalin has won the best of the week three times... In the third season of his career, he finally touched his peak.

In the next 7 games, the Pistons went all the way... Although they experienced three back-to-backs during this period, they all won without any risk.

12月11日主场再战老鹰队，活塞队以101:80轻松取胜，王大林只打了三节半，得到24分7篮板7助攻1抢断1盖帽。

12月12日客场挑战公牛队，活塞队赢得更加轻松，103:76……王大林全场（实际上也就三节多一点）14投8中，其中三分球7投3中，砍下24分7篮板6助攻2抢断2盖帽。

After winning this game, the Pistons have won 21 consecutive victories, and the Lakers' 33 consecutive victories are currently ranked ahead of them.

On December 12, they played against the Sonics at home.

本场比赛活塞全队五人得分上双，其中王大林砍下33分11篮板10助攻2抢断2盖帽的大号三双，活塞队以101:78轻松获胜。

On December 12th, they played against the Nets at home.

也许是受到了背靠背的影响，王大林本场比赛手感不好，全场20投8中，其中三分球9投3中，罚球4投3中，“只得到”24分10篮板7助攻1抢断……不过活塞队以101:91胜出，倒是赢得有惊无险。

On December 12, they challenged the Cavaliers away.

这场比赛新科状元杰伊.威廉姆斯发挥相当出色，他全场19投11中，其中三分球7投4中，罚球8投7中，砍下了33分5篮板7助攻3抢断1盖帽。

In addition, Cavaliers small forward Ricky Davis made 21 of 10 shots and 8 of 7 free throws. He scored 27 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists. This former teammate of Wang Dalin has gradually become the leader of the Cavaliers this season.

王大林的手感比上一场还差，他全场17投仅7中，其中三分球9投2中，罚球4投4中……好在他还能传球，总算是砍下了20分11篮板10助攻2抢断1盖帽的三双。

活塞队能够取胜的功臣是奥库和布泽尔，其中奥库14投8中砍下21分，布泽尔也是14投8中，砍下19分10篮板的两双。

还有汉密尔顿，他的出手次数虽少可效率很高，本场比赛他11投7中砍下18分4篮板3助攻。

In the end, the Pistons defeated the Cavaliers 111:106 and continued their winning streak.

On December 12, the Pistons returned home to play against the Cavaliers.

这次杰伊.威廉姆斯神奇不再，他全场18次投篮仅命中5球，还是里基.戴维斯中球队老大站了出来……他全场25投13中，其中三分球5投2中，罚球15投14中，狂砍42分8篮板7助攻3抢断1盖帽。

活塞队这边王大林也针锋相对和他展开了对飚，他同样全场25投13中，其中三分球9投4中，罚球13投11中，砍下41分12篮板7助攻2抢断1盖帽，表现比戴维斯不遑多让。

In the end, the Pistons defeated the Cavaliers 109:107 and won the offensive battle with great difficulty... If Wang Dalin hadn't made a quasi-lore in the last 5.2 seconds, the outcome of the game would be really hard to predict.

On December 12, the Pistons challenged the Nets away.

Because Wang Dalin played too hard the night before, coupled with the huge impact of back-to-back, he felt quite sluggish in this game. He only made 18 of 7 shots in the game, including 8 of 1 three-pointers and 5 of 3 free throws. He only scored 18 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists.

还好汉密尔顿表现生猛，他全场21投12中，其中三分球5投2中，罚球6投6中，砍下了32分7篮板3助攻2抢断2盖帽。

此外，布泽尔砍下了15分8篮板，奥库13分6篮板，麦金尼斯13分4篮板5助攻……活塞队以118:100轻松战胜了篮网队。

Just after the game ended, there was a "ding" in Wang Dalin's mind, and the system issued another temporary task:
"It is detected that the team where the host belongs has reached 26 consecutive victories, which is very close to the NBA's historical winning streak record, so the system specially issued a temporary task 're-engraving the mark'!"

"'Re-engraving the mark': The Lakers' 33-game winning streak has been dusty for a long time. Heroic fighters, the record is close at hand. Muster up your courage and lead your teammates to break the old shackles and re-carve your own mark on the historical monument!"

"Specific requirements: The host leads the team to break the Lakers' 33-game winning streak!"

"Reward for completing the task: 'Copper Skin and Iron Bone Badge'."

"Bronze-skin and Iron-Bone Emblem: After assembling this emblem, the overall durability of the host will remain unchanged at 99 forever. No matter what kind of damage you receive, you will not be injured, but the pain when you are injured cannot be avoided. Please do not act recklessly!"

After reading the mission introduction, Wang Dalin couldn't help but take a deep breath, followed by uncontrollable ecstasy... Isn't the mission reward this time too cool?
He has long coveted the "copper and iron badge" for a long time, and it can be called day and night ... especially when he suffered a second-degree hamstring strain in the offseason.

Originally, he thought that he had to make crazy shots in a certain game to score 80 points in a single game, but he didn't expect the system to send the reward directly to his door!
Hmm... It can't be regarded as a door-to-door gift, after all, you have to win 8 more games to get this reward!

　Thanks to "Rexxxx" for rewarding 100 starting coins!
