Chapter 135 Discrimination and MVP

Chapter 135 Discrimination and MVP
The rookie game itself is a platform for first-year and second-year rookies to show themselves, so there are frequent substitutions. Except for the starters who are already well-known in the league, the playing time of others is basically more than ten minutes, and Even for the starters in the rookie game, these future NBA stars play less than 10 minutes. This is a means for the league to maintain a relative balance.

If you want to get good statistics in such a short playing time, and even get the MVP of the rookie game in the end, you need the rookies who play to work harder to show their strongest strength!
With the help of Roy, Li Du scored 22 points at the end of the half. If he keeps this momentum, it is not impossible to score more than 40 points by the end of the game.But things didn't go as smoothly as he had imagined.

Just over 3 minutes into the second half, Li Du was replaced, but Roy and Rondo were put on the court at the same time.

Rajon Rondo is a rookie in the same class as Li Du. His body shape is very similar to Li Du, and his big hands are like a center forward like Li Du, and he serves as a point guard.This season, with the formation of the Celtics' Big Three, Rondo has grown a lot playing beside the Big Three, and his statistics are also very good, especially his assists are often in double figures, and he has been called "Little Nash".

It's a pity that in Li Du's opinion, Rondo is far worse than Nash. Not to mention the overall situation and passing ability, he can't pass the COSCO shooting alone.As a guard, Rondo's mid-range shooting percentage is less than [-]%, and his three-point shooting percentage is less than [-]%!And Nash's mid-range shots are very accurate, and his three-point shooting percentage has always been around [-]%!A guard who does not have the deterrent power of a long-range shot is destined not to be an MVP-level player like Nash.

Li Du didn't think too much at first. After all, everyone's playing time in the rookie game was balanced by the coach, and no one would have too much time.But in the blink of an eye, half of the second half passed, and the coach of the second-year team, Woodson, still had no intention of replacing him. Li Du was a little anxious.

In fact, Woodson’s practice of putting Li Du on the bench is normal for many people. Although racial discrimination has been expressly prohibited by law in the United States, it is difficult to eliminate the barriers and prejudices in people’s hearts.Chinese people have always been excluded and discriminated against in the United States. Woodson is like this. He doesn't want to see a Chinese person showing off his power in the NBA.

But Li Du can't go directly to Woodson to ask to play. After all, this is a rookie game, which is a performance game. If Li Du goes directly to ask for playing time, it is easy to be misunderstood by others. Had a lot of bad influence on him.In fact, everyone wants this MVP trophy, but it cannot be said on the bright side.

Looking at Woodson with hatred, Li Du clenched his hands tightly, wishing to punch this guy to death.Originally, he had scored 22 points at the end of the first half, and with the help of Roy in the second half, he had already scored 28 points. Li Du believes that as long as he has enough playing time, he can score 40 points today.

But it is different now. There are too many people who can score in the second grade, and Daniel Gibson has been focusing on three-pointers today. He has made eight three-pointers so far. It seems that he regards today's game as a goal. A preview of tomorrow's three-point contest!Li Du doubted that this guy would be able to continue to make shots like this. In that case, he would be the MVP in all likelihood!

Seeing Li Du sitting with a displeased face, Aldridge patted Li Du gently: "Li, don't worry too much, it doesn't matter whether you win the trophy for this kind of competition!"

Knowing that Aldridge was comforting himself, no matter how upset Li Du was, he still smiled at him.Aldridge is a very good person, with a gentle personality and polite to everyone, but he doesn't talk much at ordinary times.Li Du still remembers the day when he first arrived in New Orleans, all the stars who participated in the All-Star Weekend gathered. This guy bowed to everyone, and he was completely a good boy, which made Li Du and Kobe laugh out loud.

At this time, Li Du heard the sound of the "swipe" basketball hollowing into the net again.Looking back, Daniel Gibson made another three-pointer, and the number of three-pointers hit reached nine, which is very close to the record for the number of three-pointers made in the game!If Li Du doesn't play again, I'm afraid Li Du won't have a chance to win the MVP!
Looking at Woodson again, the old god was still watching the field, not paying attention to Li Du at all.Li Du was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do. He secretly hated in his heart: "Old boy, you wait! Don't let me find a chance, or I will definitely disable your team!"

Until the end of the rookie game, Li Du never got a chance to play again, while Daniel Gibson tied the record for the number of three-pointers scored in a single game by making 20 of 11 three-pointers and won the championship in one fell swoop. Rookie Game MVP.

After the game, Roy and Aldridge comforted Li Du and walked out of the court. Li Du gave Woodson a vicious look, turned around and left without saying hello to the interim head coach.

After the game, Li Du publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with Woodson. He said in an interview with reporters: "Congratulations to Daniel for winning the MVP of the rookie game. He hit eleven three-pointers tonight, tying the NBA single game. The record for the number of three-pointers scored, this is a great record! Unfortunately, I basically didn't play in the second half, and I couldn't have a good exchange with him about the experience of shooting three-pointers!"

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Du only played for more than three minutes in the second half before being replaced, and never played again. As the official starter of the rookie game invited by the NBA, Li Du played only 18 minutes in the entire game , Not to mention that compared with other starters, even Gibson, who came off the bench and won the MVP in the end, is much worse.This is clearly Woodson's intention to suppress Li Du and prevent Li Du from having a chance to perform!
A reporter asked Li Du at the right time: "Mr. Li, are you dissatisfied with Coach Woodson not letting you play the entire second half?"

Li Du looked at the reporter kindly. He knew that reporters liked to provoke troubles, but since Woodson was so insidious, don't blame him, so Li Du nodded and said: "Yes, I Not to mention that his playing time was greatly reduced, he replaced me in just over three minutes into the second half, and then he didn't communicate with me for the whole game. Those who didn't know thought I made a big mistake, As a result, I can't play in games that have nothing to do with the record like the rookie game! I think, if there is a chance, Coach Woodson and I should have a good chat."

In fact, Li Du was resentful in his heart: "Talk? Woodson, you old boy, you can chat with my fist!" But the reporters were happy. Li Du, the most popular and famous rookie, publicly bombarded Coach Woodson. !This is destined to be the headline news tonight, more exciting than Gibson's eleven three-pointers.

After the reporters dispersed and Li Du returned to the hotel, he received a call from Kobe.Kobe didn't say much, and only said one sentence: "Turn the anger in your heart into motivation and strength, and let's shock the world tomorrow!"
