I really play basketball

Chapter 178 The Warrior Comes Right!
“斯大28分8个篮板13个助攻3个抢断2个盖帽，只差2个篮板就三双了，那么，这2个篮板跑去哪了呢？”

"Look at Dennis Rodman's stat sheet, the guy dropped 19 rebounds in his Warriors debut..."

"In addition to 19 rebounds, in this game, Rodman also scored 24 points. In this game, he played a bit like Shaq."

"On the contrary, it was Shaq. This game was so dismal. He scored 18 goals in 11 shots. It seemed that he made a good shot, but he missed 22 free throws and missed too many opportunities to score."

"Maybe that's why the Warriors won this game so easily?"

At the end of the game, Marv Albert and Matt Gudica lamented that the game was abnormal.

It is understandable that the triple-double king missed the triple-double. After all, Rodman is here, and the rebounds are all his.

But Rodman scored 24 points, which is hard to understand.

Don't think that 24 points are very common. For Lin Xing, 24 points can be prefixed with the word "only".

But for Rodman, his 24 points can be used as "slash".

You know, the 24 points in this game are already the top five in Rodman's career.

Rodman's big double-double is amazing.

Looking back at the Magic, the Sharks missed 22 free throws, but no one would be surprised.

In the past two seasons, the Sharks have missed more than 20 free throws. There are too many games, and there is really nothing surprising.

But it is surprising that the Warriors won this game too easily.

After all, the Magic are the top two teams in the Eastern Conference and the top four teams in the league. Compared with the Warriors, they are not much worse.

But the result is that in this strong duel, the Magic were unilaterally beaten.

The two discussed for a while, and came to the conclusion that the Warriors played too well, Lin Xing played normally, and Rodman played exceptionally.

And, Sharks are so bad at fighting...

"Are we ignoring Anfernee Hardaway? He's the worst player."

After the game ended for a long time, the players of the two teams on the court finished their greetings, and Lin Xing was already standing on the sidelines, ready to be interviewed.

Matt Gutica just slapped his head, thinking of Penny, who played so badly in this game.

In this game, Penny took a total of 10 shots, hit 2 goals, only scored 8 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 5 turnovers.

With this statistic, no one would believe him, let alone Danzi's hand-picked successor, as an All-Star starter?

"I thought that Penny's poor performance was expected. When did he win against University of St. Louis?"

"Although he and Star were ranked in the top two of the 93 draft, the gap between the second and the first is too big."

On the court, Penny has already retired.

His face is ugly, although he understands that there is a big problem in this game.

But after the game, he still had a conflict with the Sharks.

One sentence: "I already passed the ball to you, but you missed 22 free throws, which is why we lost this game!"

As soon as the words came out, the shark was furious, but he couldn't refute.

Because of this game, he asked for the ball to be given to him.

When shouting "Give me the ball", the Sharks were full of confidence.

Who would have thought that he would lose this game on that damn free throw?

Penny's performance was not good, but he took few shots, so he didn't try his best and didn't play like a star point guard should.

To say that he robbed the victory of this game would be pure blame.

Shark is not a person who likes to blame, so after the game, he asked for a training hall and began to practice his free throws hard.

The regular season of the Warriors vs. Magic is a home and away game.

In other words, one day later, Magic will usher in a chance for revenge.

……

A day later, in a battle at the Amway Center in Orlando, the Magic failed to get revenge.

It's not that the Sharks' free throws got stuck again. In fact, in this game, the Sharks' free throws are no problem.

At the beginning, he was fouled, went to the free throw line, and made two free throws in one wave.

Old Nelson smelled something unusual, he stared at Langley and chopped another wave of sharks.

The Sharks went to the free throw line and made another wave of two free throws.

Without thinking, he blew a whistle from the sidelines.

It means that the shark hacking tactics are suspended.

After making two free throws in a row, this shark-slaying tactic had to stop.

Although the shark slashing tactic rarely worked, the Warriors still won this game.

因为林星的33分7个篮板14个助攻5个抢断3个大帽，对位完虐12中4、只得到11分4个篮板7个助攻7个失误的便士。

也因为罗德曼又一场22分20个篮板的表演，基本兑掉了这场比赛正常发挥得到32分16个篮板3个大帽的鲨鱼。

This game can be said to be a penny pit.

After all, the whole magic, if it is not performed normally, is only a penny.

If the pot is not his, who else could it be?
"The All-Star Game, the regular season, the current Stalin just say: Eat and sleep for pennies..."

……

The Magic won two games in a row, and after the All-Star Game, the Warriors' winning streak has reached 9 games.

After that, they faced the Heat back to back and won another wave of ten consecutive victories.

Although he won another ten consecutive victories, Lin Xing was a little unhappy.

The main reason is that he has not had a triple-double in three consecutive games, and even the media began to shout:
"With Rodman coming, Star's triple-double is gone, and he may not be able to break Oscar Robertson's record for triple-doubles in a single season."

That is to say, the advantages accumulated before are large enough. Now Lin Xing averages 27.2 points, 10.9 rebounds, 10.3 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.9 blocks per game, still averaging a triple-double per game.

But if the remaining games of this season continue to play like this, it is estimated that this triple-double will also be lost.

After returning from Miami, Lin Xing thought——

No, he has to talk to Rodman.

Rodman is quite rebellious.

Over the years of his career, he has served the fists of the big boys of the Bad Boys Legion, and also the Danzi who is expensive as GOAT. He is also obedient to the Zen master who can wear a ring full of hands.

But to the general, and to Popovich, who was later called Zhuge, he was not very convinced.

Lin Xing didn't think he could have Danzi's momentum and be able to directly overwhelm Rodman.

Therefore, facing Rodman, Lin Xing felt that he was no different from the general and Popovich.

If you want to persuade Rodman, you can only learn from bad boys and Zen masters.

Lin Xing doesn't like physical violence, so he decided to learn from a Zen master.

Why did the Zen master make Rodman obey?It's not because of his charisma, nor because of his five championship rings.

When it comes to rings, Rodman is not without one.

Zen Master let Rodman obey, relying on a deal.

That's right, it's a transaction. Simply put——

The Zen master gave Rodman respect and gave Rodman a certain degree of freedom.

In exchange for Rodman's dedication on the court...

Lin Xing is also planning to find Rodman to make a deal.

After training that day, Lin Xing didn't stay on the training ground too long.

Because he knows that Rodman is the kind of player who goes to work on time and leaves work on time.

He won't be late, but don't even think he's 1 minute early.

He won't leave early, but don't even think about him practicing for an extra minute.

Therefore, if Lin Xing wanted to talk to Rodman, he could only seize the time after training.

If he can't catch it, he can only find Rodman all over the Bay Area.

Maybe, he might meet Madonna again, that's not what Lin Xing thought.

In the locker room, Lin Xing blocked Rodman.

"Dennis, can we talk for a while?"

Lin Xing got straight to the point, but Rodman nodded as if he knew that such a day would come.

"Okay, no problem."

After responding to Lin Xing's request to chat for a few words, he also said: "Should I find a place where no one is around?"

"Can……"

So, the two left the locker room one after the other and found a corner.

Rodman stood against the wall, took out a cigarette-like thing from his pocket, and asked Lin Xing, "Do you want to have a sip?"

Lin Xing knew it wasn't cigarettes, but he didn't know what it was.

But he knew that he couldn't touch this thing.

So, Lin Xing shook his head: "No, let's get down to business."

"You want to talk about rebounding, right?"

Rodman obviously knew it well. During this period of time, it was not impossible for him to see the national discussions.

Lin Xing was not surprised, and smiled: "It's actually very simple. You just need to give me some rebounds when I'm rushing for rebounds. Don't be afraid to give up the rebounds and give up the rebounds to others in the end. My rebounding ability is still trustworthy."

"Also, it's good to give up the rebound... Simply put, if I can get the rebound in the first place, we can play an unstoppable counterattack."

"And, in exchange..."

Rodman kept silent, knowing that Reason came in exchange.

He was surprised and said: "Exchange? You mean, if I give you the board, what else can you do for me?"

"That's right, in exchange, in the following games, I will pass the ball to you as much as in these three games."

In these three games, Rodman got the number of possessions that were difficult to get in his entire career.

In two games against the Magic, one had 24 points and 19 rebounds, and the other had 22 points and 20 rebounds.

Playing the Heat, he scored another double-double of 19 points and 18 rebounds. In three games, he averaged 21.7 points and 19 rebounds per game.

Before that, any one of these three games, for Rodman, was considered eating dumplings.

But Rodman knew that he was not without this ability.

His scoring ability, guaranteed to average just over 10 points per game, is still no problem.

It's not like last season, averaging 4.7 points per game.

The main reason is that the Spurs teammates are not willing to pass the ball to him, and he himself is not interested in scoring.

But now, things are different.

He has Madonna, and every game, he wants to hear Madonna cheering and screaming for him from the sidelines.

Although Madonna doesn't know the ball that well, she still knows that it's just a rebound, and there's nothing to cheer about.

So in these three games, Madonna will only cheer and scream for Rodman when Rodman receives Lin Xing's pass and eats cakes.

Therefore, for Rodman, who is eager for Madonna's cheers and screams, Lin Xing's pass is really important.

For Rodman, it's just a rebound, and he can easily grab a bunch of rebounding champions.

He has missed a bunch of games this season and has missed the rebounding title.

So simply, let Lin Xing order the board, and listen to Madonna's cheers and screams a few more times, that is the enjoyment.

then--

"Ok, the deal has been concluded. In the next game, I will not only give way to you, but I will also help you get a place..."

……

At home, the Spurs will play again.

This game is also very important, the Warriors are first in the league, first in the Western Conference, the Spurs are third in the league, and second in the Western Conference.

Therefore, this game can be called a strong duel.

Of course, more importantly, this game is Rodman's first game against his old owner after his comeback.

The media is very concerned. After all, in the first half of the season, Rodman left the Spurs, and there were still some disturbances.

On the one hand, it is the contradiction between Rodman and the Spurs management.

Reporters don't pay much attention to this contradiction.

Mainly on the other hand, the contradiction between Rodman and the general.

The two quarreled fiercely, and Rodman with a big mouth even slammed the general in front of the reporters, he would only blame the general.

This also caused the reputation of the general to surpass the dream this season to plummet.

Don't underestimate the word wind comment, this thing will greatly affect the attribution of various honors in the regular season.

After all, honors such as regular season MVP and Dpoy are all voted by the media.

The general hated Rodman for telling the truth, and Rodman, after transferring as he wished, naturally wanted to prove himself in front of his old owner.

As a result, the game was fired up.

Lin Xing, who has always been the protagonist, became a supporting role in this game.

But when the game started, Lin Xing, who was always the protagonist, still became the protagonist.

At the beginning of the game, Lin Xing used frequent mid-range singles to blow up Sean Elliott's defense against him.

After scoring consecutively, the Warriors gained the opening advantage.

Although afterwards, the general also showed his power, blowing up the inside line of the Warriors.

But after all, the Warriors play with multiple players. On the contrary, on the Spurs side, Lin Xing switched to defend Sean Elliott, which killed the only strong point of the Spurs outside.

Of course, Lin Xing did not forget his commitment to Rodman.

In this game, he still passed the ball to Rodman when he had a chance.

Rodman is also much more active than in the past three games. Madonna only appeared on the sidelines to watch the game once.

More importantly, Rodman has to prove himself.

In this way, relying on Lin Xing's massive feeding, Rodman scored a season-high 27 points in this game.

But there are fewer rebounds, only 15, where are they going?

Of course it fell into the hands of Lin Xing. In this game, Rodman handed over the rebound, and Lin Xing also proved that he is capable of protecting the rebound when Rodman handed over the rebound.

26分11个篮板12个助攻2个抢断2个盖帽，林星重入下水道！
After the game, Dennis Rodman with 27 points, 15 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block was interviewed:

"I know that my Warriors career has averaged 23 points and 18 rebounds per game. I guarantee that the data in these four games is not a flash in the pan."

"Right now I just want to say, Spurs, I'm on the right track!"

"Warrior, I'm in the right place!"

After the game, media reports——

"Four consecutive big double-doubles, Rodman called out: The Warriors are right!"
