NBA: I am the card dealer

Chapter 145: Losing face? Hit once after meeting

The other two giants of the Cavaliers.

Irving missed the fourth quarter and scored 18 points on 8 of 23 shots. He finally looked like a giant.

General Guofu didn't even play in the fourth quarter. He made 13 of 3 shots, 4 of 0 three-point shots, and scored 11 points, as well as 8 rebounds. Just because his touch on the outside was too cold, James struggled. .

This pot must be carried steadily.

None of the remaining players scored in double figures.

The Cavaliers' overall shooting percentage is abysmal, only about 36%.

The three-point shooting rate is even worse. He took 28 shots and only hit 4 goals, which is only 14%.

With such outside accuracy, how could the Heat not attack like crazy?

How can this kind of outside accuracy create space for James?

no doubt.

Except for Irving, all CBA should be taken to the execution ground and shot.

what?

You want to ask me how James performed?

Bold!

我大詹皇虽然25中6，命中率只有24%，三分球更是7中0，只拿到了18分，再加4助攻4篮板的数据。

But I, King James, am very lethal!

Made 10 of 6 free throws, effectively damaging the Heat's inside line.

How could the team lose so miserably if it wasn't for you guys who were useless and couldn't make three-pointers repeatedly and couldn't open up space for James?

A full 45 minutes!

What a shame!

and so.

I, Big Zhan, tried my best, you feel free...

Heat here.

薛连城浅浅拿下31分13助攻的两双数据，投篮是19投10中，三分6中4，命中率还算可以。

The assists were basically concentrated in the first quarter, but in the rest of the time, only 7 assists were sent out.

fail……

Compared with my big Zhan Huang's explosive performance, overall, it can only be regarded as barely good.

——Anyway, there is absolutely no problem in beating up our emperor.

韦德17投8中，拿到了22分5篮板5助攻，也相当勉强。

Luol Deng showed off his power in this game, shooting 16 of 10 and scoring 25 points and 8 rebounds, completely replacing Bo Erye.

The remaining Anderson scored 11 points, but unfortunately was eliminated midway...

Sean Williams also scored 10 points.

The rest of the people also didn't get double figures.

But they defended very actively, even sparing no effort, and made an outstanding contribution to the team's victory.

The game is over.

Players from both sides came over to hug and greet each other.

I, James, went straight to Wade, while Irving went to Xue Liancheng.

Irving: "Xue, you are great. I apologize for the prejudice I held before."

Xue Liancheng: "You are also great, your dribbling is so dazzling that I can't even figure it out."

Although he had no feelings for Ou Shenxian, and even the other party dissed him on social media, he naturally couldn't be sullen if someone came to him.

The most important thing is that Owen's words made him feel comfortable.

From being dismissive to actively apologizing, does this count as being convinced?

Irving: "You are incredible, you deserve to be an All-Star."

Xue Liancheng was even more impressed: "Thank you, you are also the best player of the Cavaliers in my mind."

The two entered into business bragging mode.

But both of them told the truth.

Owen said that he is worthy of being an All-Star, which is a complete recognition of his strength.

And when he said that Irving is the best player on the Cavaliers, he was right.

At least for this game, Irving is the best player of the Cavaliers, not one of them.

Irving: "But this is not the end. I look forward to the next encounter. It would be even better if it was a playoff. I won't let you take away the victory so easily."

Xue Liancheng raised his eyebrows, "LeBron probably doesn't want to meet us in the playoffs."

Owen was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "Let's see, this is something that is impossible to tell."

Xue Liancheng: "Maybe!"

Owen: "Merry Christmas, hope you have a nice night."

Xue Liancheng: "Same for you."

He is definitely happy, and the entire Heat team should be happy too. They slaughtered the Cleveland Cavaliers with 45 points. The Heat have completely proven themselves.

Especially the group of old people represented by Haslem.

After losing in the finals, James felt that his teammates were not good enough and turned around and left without hesitation.

What now?

Ok?

Turns out, they're okay without you James.

He even grabbed your James by the collar, including your new teammates who James thought were good, and slapped them wildly.

Won a full 45 points.

This achievement is enough to keep them excited for a whole year.

Especially in recent years, the media has described them as a pile of rubbish and a hindrance. Judging from the current results, who is the rubbish? Who is the burden?

It's self-explanatory.

What a breath of bad breath!

How could they not be happy?

So happy that I want to fly.

But for Xue Liancheng.

The fruits of victory in such a game also excite him.

Didn't you James say you don't know me?

After this game, we must have known each other, right?

This kind of slap in the face feels very good, and what's even more exciting is that he is hitting the face of the league's number one player.

In addition, haven't the outside world always said that he is not worthy of the All-Star?

Is it ready now?

Is this performance enough to silence the doubters?

so.

How could he not be happy?

I just don't know, will anyone be unhappy because of this?

He guessed there should be.

Anyway, this is an unspeakable Christmas for the entire Cavaliers team.

As for James?

It's probably even harder to be happy.

but……

When Xue Liancheng glanced at James, he noticed that I, Emperor James, was smiling and interacting with Uncle Wei.

There is no sign of being unhappy at all!

It feels a bit like a young couple reunited after a long separation. The two grown men flirting there makes people feel chilling...

Xue Liancheng did not leave. After hugging the Cavaliers one by one, he always paid attention to James.

He slapped me, James, in the face, but he felt it was not enough.

You should come forward in person and introduce yourself, that's enough!

By the time.

He can enjoy the epic face-changing performance up close.

It took a while.

James finally finished chatting with Wade. He turned around and found that most of the old people he had fought alongside were gone?

Haslem, Chalmers, and Norris Cole were all gone. Even Bosh, who was watching the game, left without saying hello.

Only Justin Hamilton is still there.

In addition, there are some new people signed this year.

James's expression suddenly darkened.

This doesn’t give him any face at all!

Originally, he wanted to show off with his old teammates in front of the world's cameras, so that the fans could see his authority.

Ok……

Even after leaving Miami, he can still be respected at American Airlines Arena.

He is still the king here.

In his imagination, everyone would line up waiting for him to hug and greet him, and then everyone would talk and laugh, and make some wisecracks about how your beard looks nice, you have gained muscles, and your body is getting stronger.

result.

The old guys just didn’t give him any face.

This is so...

It made his already bad mood come to a head...

It's so embarrassing...

Being slaughtered for 45 points, that's all.

Even his former teammates didn't care about him.

He couldn't even imagine what would be written in the news tomorrow.

But this is the case.

He still put on a strong face and hugged the new Heat players one by one.

Just a hug, no extra words.

I just said a few words to Luol Dundo. After all, this is also a famous person.

soon.

Seeing that it was Xue Liancheng's turn.

And at this time.

Xue Liancheng was also secretly gearing up, thinking about the tone he should use to introduce himself later, so that he would not appear too abrupt or too petty.

result.

After James and Shannon Brown hugged, he walked past Xue Liancheng and headed towards Granger.

like……

It was as if Xue Liancheng was not seen at all.

The most hateful thing is that when I hugged Shannon Brown, I, James, was still smiling, but when I turned my head and passed by him, his face immediately dropped.

Then when he walked to Granger, he returned to his smiling look.

this moment.

Xue Liancheng raised a question mark: "..."

The hand that was about to reach out was put down angrily.

How embarrassing!

It’s so embarrassing!

Fortunately, he didn't go up to him. Otherwise, if James ignored him, then he would not only lose face, but he should consider finding a crack in the ground to get in!

After all, once this kind of shot of a hot face touching a cold butt spreads, it will be very social.

Ok……

correct……

I don't know if there is a camera to capture this scene?

subconsciously.

Xue Liancheng looked up, ahem... everyone was very busy, so no one should have noticed him.

At this moment.

He didn't know how to describe his mood. It was like dust forgotten by the world, unable to feel the meaning of existence.

Besides.

Still a little empty.

He didn't know what Emperor James was thinking, and what kind of mentality made Emperor James pretend not to see him.

Maybe it's because he led the Heat to beat the Cavaliers so badly. After all, the 45-point defeat really made me, King James, lose face.

Maybe it's because he warned King James, "I advise you not to do anything, I will beat you to death", which made King James feel humiliated. After all, it is true that the number one player in the league was so harshly criticized. No face left at all.

Maybe it's because my great James once said "I don't know him at all" and he has never been mentioned to the outside world, which has caused an irreparable rift between us. James' hostility towards him can no longer be taken back.

But no matter what it is, it can't change the fact.

I, Emperor James, simply ignored him and even embarrassed him.

Ok……

Not even given a chance to get to know each other?

King James is really domineering!

What the hell...

I'm giving you face...

If you don't give a chance to know each other, then you don't know each other.

What can be done?

Why don't I just massacre you and ride for 45 points?

Why does this debt fall on him alone?

Xue Liancheng adjusted his mentality slightly and stopped delving further.

after all.

Even if he doesn't know me, King James, he won't be short of meat.

soon.

The reporter found him for a post-match interview.

Reporter: "Xue, let's talk about Anderson first. What impact will his unfortunate injury have on the team?"

Xue Liancheng: "We have lost the barrier inside."

Reporter: "Do you think LeBron is suspected of being a criminal?"

Xue Liancheng: "Please remove the suspicion. This is an extremely dangerous flagrant foul and a very unnecessary action."

Reporter: "You mean LeBron did it on purpose?"

Xue Liancheng: "I just stated the fact that this was a flagrant foul, but I don't know whether it was intentional or not. Only the person involved knows this. If you must find the answer, you can watch the replay twice more."

This question is too subjective. Although the replay is very clear, what if LeBron really didn't notice Anderson?

If he really said it so bluntly, it would be a malicious slander.

inappropriate……

Still have to keep room.

After all, the person involved, Anderson, didn't say anything. If what he said is conclusive, if Anderson overturns his intentional remarks later, then he really is not a human being inside and out.

The reporter did not continue to pester: "Xue, what does this big victory mean to the team and you?"

Xue Liancheng: "It means that we are not as weak as we thought, and others are not as strong as we thought. It means that I am gradually getting better, and everything is moving in the right direction."

Reporter: "I just saw that you were about to say hello to LeBron, but LeBron passed by you and ignored you. It seems that he really doesn't know you at all. How are you feeling at this time? What's wrong with you? What do you want to say?"

The reporter was very humorous, and secretly embellished James' famous saying of "I don't know him at all".

Xue Liancheng almost blushed, but he was seen!

However, his psychological quality was not bad, and he answered calmly, "Yes, I want to solemnly introduce myself to LeBron and formally let LeBron get to know me, but obviously, after losing a full 45 points, it can be seen that He was not in a good mood, and I understood it, so I didn’t bother him.”

Although this wave of forced respect was a bit harsh, it finally earned some face.

He has to give himself an A+ grade.

Ok……

I beat you half to death and beat you by a full 45 points. It is understandable that you are unhappy.

After all, as a winner, he should be more generous and show his grace and not care about it.

As for losing face?

That would also be a loss of face for you, Emperor James.

narrow! mean! Can't afford to lose! Disrespectful!

The reporter saw the excitement and said, "Aren't you angry at being ignored so directly?"

Xue Liancheng smiled: "Why should I be angry? My team finally won an exciting victory. My performance was excellent. This is undoubtedly a beautiful Christmas night. As for who is angry, that I don't know."

It’s obvious!

I'm a great James.

After losing, he lost the data, and finally he even lost his style.

With that dead face on your face and scorning him, isn't this a sign of anger?

Thinking of it this way, he felt much more relieved.

It shouldn't be him who is angry, but the big Zhan Huang.

What is he angry about?

What's there to be angry about?

Reporter: "So the next time you meet LeBron, will you respond?"

Xue Liancheng: "Every time we meet in the future, I will show my 100% attitude and go all out to beat him up. I will beat him again and again until he gets to know me."

It's kind of crazy to say that.

But this is what he thinks.

To shame him?

Don't respect him?

Ignore him?

Then he must respond and ask for a face-saving project first. I don't care whether you can bear it or not.

After all, he is also a human being, and he has emotions as a human being.

Being so insulted, if I can still smile and express to the reporter that I look forward to the next meeting, I must work hard and get a chance to introduce myself to my big brother James.

That's not grace.

That's mean, that's flattery.

What about being the first player in the league?

Respect is mutual.

I respect you, and if you don't respect me, I won't hold you back.

Do you still want to save face?

Not even a hair will be left for you.

of course.

He thinks the most important thing is that LeBron is the best in the league. How can he increase his popularity if he doesn't hammer LeBron? How to sign a big contract? How do you get endorsements?

Only by defeating me, Emperor James, is the only way to become the king.

After all, the King of Six Asia.

If he defeats the runner-up, isn't he the champion?

As a bad guy, he actually didn't have much ambition at the beginning. He just wanted to become an All-Star.

Seeing that the All-Stars are no problem now, then he has to raise his goals. Winning one or two championships should still be delusional, right?

After all, it seems good to leave a name in basketball history...

The reporter was immediately shocked, his eyes widened, thinking he heard wrongly, and asked in disbelief, "You said you wanted to beat LeBron?"

Xue Liancheng replied firmly: "Yes!"

Simultaneously.

He also added to the questions missed by the reporter, "Every time we meet in the future, I will use all my energy to smash him, every time I see him."

The reporter was stunned: "Xue, your answer shocked me. He is LeBron! Do you know what you mean by saying that?"

Xue Liancheng said: "Being bombed by the Internet even affects daily life..."

What he said was no exaggeration at all.

It is not uncommon for fans of various teams to fight each other in the playoffs.

There are countless superstar fan groups blasting other players or live broadcast commentators on the Internet, which has caused many commentators and hosts to be careful when speaking.

And active players...even retired players try to say good things about superstars when they are interviewed.

You didn’t see a certain No. 2 pick, but you just said that the GOAT in your mind is not LeBron James, but Paul George.

Ruined!

Immediately, it was sprayed overwhelmingly, not only by fans, but also by famous commentators, and even the media stood up and said that the No. show was crazy. Anyway, it was just a spray until you suffocated.

In the end, the No. 2 pick had to stand up and make statements one after another, which eventually evolved into this summary: Jordan is an ordinary person, and I am a James fan, but Paul George is the GOAT in my mind.

That's right!

After saying that Danzi was an ordinary person, the matter calmed down.

otherwise……

Haha...the consequences are disastrous!

There are even some fanatical fans who will actually come to trouble him because of his remarks.

But does I care?

As a person who spends all day in the arena, he doesn't care about these things. When he grows up, fans will naturally support him.

As for the Internet explosion?

He just watched it for fun, and his mentality was very good in this regard.
