Chapter 38 MVP in the rookie season?

The first quarter is over.

Pistons 28: 20 Lakers.

Referee Lewis walked directly towards the Lakers dugout, saw the unfriendly eyes of the Lakers players, and chose to stop one meter away.

Wharton smiled and looked at Lewis, "What advice do you have?"

Lewis looked around and said in a low voice, "I hope you will control your fouls in the next time! This is the NBA, not a boxing match!"

Walton laughed directly, and other Lakers players also showed dismissive expressions.

This made Lewis feel contemptuous, "You want to be suspended?!"

Russell opened his mouth to retort, "You threatened us?!"

Wharton pressed Russell, put away his smiling face, "NBA you decide?"

"I'm the referee!"

"Cut a few!"

Randall stood up directly from his seat and rushed to Lewis, if Ingram hadn't grabbed his waist tightly.

Randall's fist was about to land on Lewis' face.

Fans around were also drawn to Randle's roar.

The Lakers players clashed with the referee!
The eyes of the audience all looked over.

Magic Johnson showed up.

The fans around were shocked. The Lakers had a conflict with the referee, and the general manager ran out!

Fans pulled out their phones and started recording.

Looking forward to recording the scene of the explosion.

"Calm down guys, I'll handle it, if you don't obey, you'll be banned from the team."

As soon as these words came out, the Lakers players who were ready to charge with fists at any time weakened.

In-team ban!

Representation means even more than a league ban.

After stabilizing the players, Johnson waved to Walton and Lewis, and the three walked into the player tunnel.

Viewers who held up their phones were disappointed.

Pacers coach Van Gundy, who was watching the situation not far away, frowned when he saw Johnson suddenly appearing.

Then, the call from the general manager of the Pistons came.

Van Gundy answered the phone.

In the player tunnel, Walton felt a little guilty. At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers trailed by 8 points, and all the main players were in foul trouble.

Although I said something at the time and carried it myself, the time really came.People are still a little scared, especially when facing leaders.

Of course, Wharton is not afraid to carry.There is still some bloodiness.

Everyone rides on their own heads to shit!
After walking into the player tunnel, Johnson handed the phone to Lewis, "Take the call."

Lewis took the phone with a puzzled look on his face.

"Hello, may I ask?"

"It's your mother's size! You idiot! Falk! Didn't you say that today's game is okay for you? It turned out like this! Pig! You are a pig!"

The phone is still on speakerphone.

Silver's scolding echoed in the entire player tunnel, Lewis hastily turned off the speakerphone, and put the phone to his ear.

Johnson and Wharton looked at each other without speaking.

Now is not the time to speak.

I don't know what Xiao Hua and Lewis said, Lewis was about to cry, as if mourning his concubine!

After returning the phone to Johnson, he gritted his teeth and glared at Wharton. Instead of heading towards the field, he walked towards the referee lounge.

Wharton, of course, stared back, then looked at Johnson.

Johnson patted Wharton on the shoulder and said succinctly, "Silver called me, and a new head referee will be coaching this game. Tell the boys to stop making trouble."

Wharton breathed a sigh of relief.Although it is not enough to relieve the anger, but at any rate, this game can continue to be played.

However, Wharton was still a little curious, and said, "I didn't expect Xiao Hua to make a move. Isn't he operating these?"

Johnson sneered, "An NBA with a team is the NBA. Everyone can tolerate slight interference. But this time Xiao Hua hired a fool, and the situation is getting out of control. Of course he has to take care of it."

Wharton was silent.Some things, as a young head coach, he has understood, but only on the surface.

Johnson, "Okay, let's take the players to play with peace of mind and win the game!"

Wharton wanted to ask a few more questions unwillingly.

Johnson interrupted Wharton, "Don't think too much, strength is the last word. In the face of absolute strength, no matter how much Xiao Hua interferes, it will not help."

"You are also a little childish in this matter, but I understand you. Like those players, you are also very young."

"Let's talk again when we have a chance, let's focus on the game!"

In fact, Wharton wanted to ask.

Why did Xiao Hua target the Lakers.

Before the start of the second quarter, the on-site host also announced that the referee had been temporarily replaced due to the physical discomfort of the referee Lewis.

The Lakers fans at the scene immediately applauded!After all, the blind blows in the first quarter are vivid.

As for the players on both sides, they have already learned the news from the coach in advance.

Of course, the Lakers players applauded excitedly!
"Then coach, shall we still fight?"

Walton said, "If the new referee is still biased, continue to play! If the whistle is normal, try to win the game!"

On the other hand, the Pistons players, especially the double-team duo, Pope and Smith, couldn't help but ask Van Gundy.

"Coach, how do we fight?"

Van Gundy was not in a good mood at this time, "Play normally!"

"But playing normally, the two of us can't stand that Zheng Long."

"You don't want to play anymore, do you?"

"No! Coach! I'll just ask casually!"

The second quarter started.

The players on both sides calmed down, and Pope and Smith still used off-ball double-teaming.

However, there is no blessing of "small moves".

The two couldn't restrain Zheng Long at all. Zheng Long's off-ball and variable speed running could smoothly get rid of the double-teaming of the two when his teammates found him.

Then, catch the ball.

Zheng Long, who was holding the ball, was completely clueless. Under the defensive pressure of the two, he firmly controlled the basketball in his own hands.

Or suddenly, or cast.

For Zheng Long, the only trouble is thinking about how to score.

Anyway, he would not choose to pass the ball.

That's it.

After Zheng Long scored 8 points in a row in the second quarter, Pope couldn't help but chose to directly pull Zheng Long's arm when Zheng Long received the ball.

Zheng Long hangs one arm domineeringly, but still catches the ball.

Beep--

But the referee's whistle sounded, indicating that Pope fouled without the ball!

As the new referee for firefighting, he dared not give any favoritism.

Before coming, the task Xiao Hua gave himself was to play the whole game normally.

Pope was very helpless, and looked at the head coach Van Gundy off the court.

If you don't pull it, you can't defend it, and if you pull it, you foul again.

What?

Van Gundy was also anxiously pacing on the sidelines.

The Pistons' interior defense is really good, with Drummond and Harris.

But the perimeter defense. Pope and Smith are already the best defense in the team at the guard position.

However, Zheng Long couldn't be restrained!
And the Lakers are blooming more.

In addition to Zheng Long, the outside touch of other players is also hot. In the second quarter, the team made 8 of 7 three-pointers.

He scored 32 points in the second quarter in one breath.

At the end of the first half, the Pistons 50:52 the Lakers.

The Lakers finally succeeded in overtaking the score!

The two teams seem to be close in score, but in fact, the momentum of the Pistons has been completed.

Drummond seemed to be a bit alone, and Tobilla Harris, the usual deputy attacker, was out of line in this game.

The Pistons players followed coach Van Gundy to the player tunnel silently.

Van Gundy completely lost the excitement of the opening.

At this moment, he felt the pain of Rivers and others.

When there is a player on the opposite side, you can only scold his mother when you can't limit his scoring by double-teaming.

Before Van Gundy walked into the player tunnel, he saw the bald back of Zheng Long wearing the No. 23 jersey.

Lost for a moment.

"Fack, it seems!"

During the last season of coaching the Knicks as an assistant and head coach, Van Gundy's Knicks lost to the Bulls several times in the playoffs
"Coach, what does it look like?"

"It's nothing, I'm blind."

I must have been beaten stupid, except that they are all bald, what do they look like.

In the third quarter of the game, when the Lakers players returned to the game, they showed their determination to solve the game in advance.

Especially Zheng Long.

Today, this matter is disgusting, I just want to leave this arena quickly, go back to have a good sleep, and relax.

Zheng Long went down to earth in the third quarter, scoring 21 points in a single quarter, leading the Lakers to a 41:21 offensive climax in a single quarter.

Entering the fourth quarter directly with a 22-point lead, when there were 8 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Lakers' lead had reached 30 points.

Wharton directly sent a substitute player and announced his dismissal in advance.

At this time, the Pistons' home fans couldn't stand it anymore, and more than half of them left the field.

But there are still a large number of spectators in the Little Caesars Arena, and these are Lakers fans.

Excitedly celebrating the Lakers' four-game winning streak!
It's been a long time, there hasn't been such a wonderful start!
The only thing that is not satisfactory is that Zheng Long scored "only" 39 points in this game.

场均得分，降到了43.5分，另外还有5助攻4篮板3盖帽3抢断。

Post-match press conference.

When the reporter asked Wharton, based on Zheng Long's current data, whether he was optimistic about winning the best rookie.

Walton replied, "Best rookie? I don't know if Zheng Long would mind comparing with rookies. His current performance is on the way to competing for MVP!"

Rookies competing for MVP? !
The last player to win the MVP in his rookie season was coach Chamberlain.

Moreover, there is only one in NBA history.

Two reporters stood at a corner of the press conference and discussed in low voices.

"Wharton is gone. At that time, Chamberlain won the MVP in his rookie season, but he had 37.6+27 rebounds."

"Zheng Long's data is indeed terrifying, but his scoring is declining, indicating that other teams in the NBA are studying ways to target him."

"Yes, it is normal for the data to be inflated at the beginning of the season. The teams are adapting to each other's offensive methods."

"Maybe Zheng Long will be completely restricted in the next game, and his touch can't be so hot all the time."

"Yes, the Lakers lack background. They can't win consecutively. Maybe in the next game, their winning streak will be broken."

"Who are they going to fight next?"

"I look like it's the 76ers."

"."

"It seems that the Lakers are going to win 5 consecutive victories."
