Chapter 35 Limbo's Chance

On November 11, the Cavaliers played back-to-back away games against the Washington Wizards.

After last night's disastrous defeat and the non-stop flight to Washington, the Cavaliers were so depressed that even the head coach was distracted.

Ling Bo finally returned to this familiar yet unfamiliar stadium.The Limbo who was half a year ago often appeared on this court, picking up the ball for the Wizards players when they started their pre-game training, but now, he will never go to the sidelines to pick up the ball again, he is as a guest Visit the Washington Wizards.

Most of the fans at the scene today are wearing the same white clothes as the home team, and the whole stadium is a sea of ​​white. Among these fans, there is a teenager wearing the Cavaliers away yellow jersey with the number 3 printed on the back of his jersey. The number looks so abrupt in the sea of ​​red and white.

But this person didn't care about other people's eyes. His eyes were all on the Cavaliers' bench. He looked forward to the appearance of Cavaliers No. 3 more than anyone else.

This person is Xia Liu, as the guide and best friend of Lingbo's basketball journey, Xia Liu did what he said, and he really appeared on the scene of the game.It's just that Ling Bo's playing is not something he can decide.

One side's morale was high, and the other's mood was low. The head coach of the Cavaliers insisted on going his own way and did not follow LeBron's suggestion to let Limbo play. He still sent Ira Newbell, LeBron James, Darius Miles, Carlos - Boozer, Ilgauskas starting lineup.

The starting five of the Wizards: Gilbert Arenas, the point guard known as No. 0 agent, and the NBA's first high school draft pick, center Kwame Brown, and the rest are Larry Hughes, Galvey Hayes, Brandon Haywood.

Most of them are familiar with Ling Bo, and of course they all have some impression of Ling Bo.

Ling Bo sat on the cold bench and became the manager of the water dispenser. He watched Big Z's feeble jump and scrimmage, shook his head helplessly, and thought to himself, how can such a handsome bald man be so soft?

General Arenas is the core of this Wizards team and the team's top scorer. A second-round pick is better than the No. [-] pick. This is something that no one in the Wizards team expected. It is simply a treasure.Arenas is still very young now, and being young means having unlimited momentum. He made an iconic pull-up jumper in the opening game.

The previous Cavaliers didn't have an absolute core player, they were like stragglers, and they didn't have a real point guard.

The addition of James has become the core of this team. In just five games, James has become the Cavaliers' top scorer, and the coaches and teammates also rely too much on his personal ability.

This caused James to be very tired after a game, but he was even more tired when he was so tired and lost.

It was James holding the ball again, James playing singles again, and James relying on his physical fitness to force a breakthrough and break the scoring shortage.

This continued to play for half the game. James became more depressed as he played more and more. It’s okay if his teammates are not good enough. The Wizards also studied the Cavaliers’ previous games and knew that LeBron was the engine of the team. This time they locked LeBron very tightly. .

Although the personal data is still good, but James has already received his fourth personal foul of the game, and the entire second half, what should the Cavaliers do?
42 to 55, 13 points behind.

In the midfield, in the lounge, when Paul Silas emphasized defense again, James flicked the towel around his neck and said with full of indignation: "Defense, defend, keep defending, we need to score, we need to catch up They didn't score, what's the use of blindly defending? We've lost five straight and are at the bottom of the league, should we continue?"

In a team, especially a rookie player, openly provoking the authority of the head coach like this usually has no good fruit.

Paul Silas was taken aback for a moment, apparently not expecting James to suddenly go mad.

Taking advantage of the head coach's stupefaction, James continued: "Why don't you let Ling play, his scoring ability, his defensive ability, which one is worse?"

"I've been fouled four times, and when I'm double-teamed, I want someone to come and help me, instead of standing like a wooden man like in the first half."

James' words not only pointed the finger at the head coach, but even his teammates were sprayed.

Paul Silas slapped the table, and the authority of the head coach was challenged. How can he not be angry?
"LeBron, pay attention to your attitude. Our team is still in the running-in period, and you have just entered the NBA. It is understandable to lose now. As the season progresses, we will get better and better."

"Also, I didn't say not to use Ling, I still said that, he has no experience, he needs to wait."

James also stood up from his seat, almost staring at Kobe Bryant, staring at the head coach with horror.

"A person who can beat me heads-up, you say he has no experience, you say he needs to wait?"

Ling Bo sat in the last row of all his teammates. He didn't speak. He watched the tense situation. All of this was Paul Silas' own fault.

At this time, Limbo really needs to stand on the sidelines. LeBron is fighting for himself to play. At this time, Limbo can't stop him. Once Limbo is subdued and James is subdued, then Paul Silas will still not give him a chance to play. Chance.

Ling Bo can't add fuel to the picture, he is now a marginalized player on the team, once he really falls out with the head coach, it will not end well either.

James is different, he is the team's new core, the son of Akron, the team needs him, and his occasional waywardness will be forgiven.

The debate was fruitless, and the head coach still did not promise to let Ling Bo play this game, but only asked the players to strengthen their offense, move more, and create more opportunities for LeBron.

At the end of the intermission, Ling Bo came out of the player tunnel and saw the excited Xia Liu. This may be the most heart-warming scene Ling Bo has seen today.

Due to the number of fouls by James, he could only sit off the court temporarily at the beginning of the third quarter.

The Cavaliers without James would be a completely different team.

The Wizards seized the time when James was away, and rushed to the basket frantically. In just 2 minutes, they opened the point difference to 18 points.

The head coach pointed to James and signaled him to play again. James turned his head as if he hadn't heard it, and completely ignored it.

Paul Silas was furious, and James slowly walked to the sidelines, waiting for the next dead ball substitution.

James' play prevented the Wizards from further expanding the point difference, but that's all.

With a mistake made by James in the third quarter, Paul Silas, who was already full of anger, pointed out the country on the sidelines and encouraged the words.

em
At this time, the referee blew his whistle and gave Paul Silas a T.

At the end of the third quarter, James received another foul, and the real danger was in the fourth quarter.

The atmosphere in the Cavaliers team was abnormally tense. Ling Bo sat on the sidelines like an outsider and hadn't played for five consecutive games. What is it if he is not an outsider?
After the start of the fourth quarter, the Wizards double-teamed James again. During a breakthrough by LeBron, the referee gave James an offensive foul, and James angrily smashed the ball directly on the floor.

Paul Silas on the sidelines rushed directly into the field to ask the referee to argue, and took the opportunity to greet the eighteenth generation of his ancestors.

The majesty of the referee is even more intolerant of provocation, but the tiger's butt cannot be touched.

A series of whistles from the referee directly gave the head coach of the Cavaliers a plane ticket—expulsion from the field.

Without their head coach and key player LeBron James, the Cavaliers seem poised for their six-game losing streak.

The fans at the scene booed all over the sky, and the opponents laughed unscrupulously. How can a team with discord between generals and generals win.

James walked to the bench and kicked the seat hard, venting his depression.

With the expulsion of the head coach, the temporary position of the assistant coach is logical. Because Mark Osorski discovered Ling Bo and successfully recruited Ling Bo, he became the first assistant coach. At this time, he will completely take over the work of the head coach and guide the completion of this games.

Mark Osorski didn't even want to pause, he just gave Ling Bo a look, little brother, here's your chance.Whether you can grasp it is up to you.

Ling Bo nodded towards him, took off his coat, and prepared to go on stage.

Mark Osorsky whispered a few words in Ling Bo's ear: "Ling, give it a go, no matter what method you use, try your best to win the game."

"In this game, you need to prove yourself to the head coach, you need to prove your existence to the thousands of Chinese fans who support you, and you need to prove to the world that you will light up the sky over the Cleveland Cavaliers."

Ling Bo nodded his head and glanced at James. LeBron calmed down, forced a smile, and said to Ling Bo: "It's up to you, I tried my best."

Ling Bo smiled slightly, gave James a reassuring look, and walked towards the field while looking at the unique yellow uniform in the auditorium.

Come on, bro!
　Thank you for your recommendations and comments, your support is the motivation for my codewords, thank you, thank you!
　　Give me a free recommendation ticket, I am not afraid of pain, hahaha!

　　Ling Bo is about to usher in his first show, brothers, let's get dry!
