Basketball: The Chosen Victim

Chapter 274 The score is significantly behind!

In the early morning, Wu Di's suite was covered with white grass.

Not a drop of the two recovery essences was wasted, and he established pure friendships with people from more than ten countries.

He stood up energetically, walked to the window and lit a cigar.

Yes, he can walk normally.

Most of the swelling on his ankle has subsided. After all, he took three recovery essences yesterday. Plus the natural recovery time, his injury is equivalent to five days of recovery.

Wu Di even felt that he should be able to play in tonight's game without any injections!

After sorting out his clothes and leaving the cell phone number he wanted to keep, Wu Di kicked open Turner's door.

"Brother Ni, what's wrong with you? We've only been here for a day! And you can't..."

Turner lay on the bed with two dark circles under his eyes and said, but looking at the radiant Wu Di, his face gradually turned into shock:

"Wait! Your feet are healed? Hou Li Crab! What kind of top-notch abalone did you eat last night?"

Wu Di spread his hands:

"Do you want to come see me play or not?"

Turner gets a cock out of bed:
"Yes, of course! Hahaha! The Heat guys are going to cry! OMG, how could you miss such a famous scene!"

However, while they were on their way to the airport, Turner was holding his cell phone and his expression changed:

"Oops, some idiot posted your photo online last night!"

"Check it out quickly, this matter is very hot and you may be in a crisis of public opinion!"

Wu Di glanced at the screen of the mobile phone he handed over. The photos were not large, just a few scenes of him laughing and chatting with the Miss Universes at a party.

But the reporters wrote short essays based on these photos:
"The attitude is worrying, the star of the Cavaliers is not recovering from his injuries, and he was still having a passionate party the night before the game!" ", "Knight Emperor?Wheelchair God of War! ", "The competition can be stopped, but the girls can't be stopped, large-scale photos of Wu Di and Miss Universe flow out"...

With the help of certain forces, this incident has evolved into a "wheelchair door", and it is getting worse.

But Wu Di didn't panic at all, and looked at it with interest.

"My God, my dear brother! Why do you seem to be watching Tiger Woods' gossip? That's your gossip... Didn't you see the netizens scolding there?"

Turner panicked when he saw this. At this point in time, Heihong hadn't said that yet, so when he saw such a raging curse, he was completely confused.

But Wu Di had an indifferent expression on his face:

"It's okay. These people are fans of the opposing camp. They would scold them even if it didn't matter!"

Turner's expression was stagnant, but he quickly retorted:
"Why are you not in a hurry! You know, we have to carry out image management and take care of the fans on the street. Otherwise, the fans on the street will easily be fooled by seeing so many negative comments!"

Wu Di's lips curved slightly:
“If I get anxious whenever there are negative comments, then I’ve become so anxious!”

He looked at Turner's expression and still had doubts, and continued to mention:
"Okay, like you said, you will be brought up to the rhythm, but what about after you are brought up to the rhythm?"

Turner responded:
"They will hate you, expect you to capsize, expect LeBron to lead the Heat to knock out the Cavaliers...Ah, wait, no, but you will come back tonight and maybe even win the game...Wait, my God! They This is to bury myself in it..."

After Wu Di's point, Turner quickly showed an expression of enlightenment, but he couldn't stop:

"Crab is not meat...you are not responsible for these topics, are you?"

Wu Di poked his head:
"Damn it, you offending guy! Look at the reporters who published the report. They are all famous journalists raised by Nike. Which one is not a mortal enemy?"

Turner came to his senses, thought for a moment and then nodded:

"Don't eat the sour radish! These people are so bad. If it weren't for your strong recovery ability, we wouldn't be able to get rid of this wave even if we jumped into the Pacific Ocean!"

After all, thinking of the origin of the photo, he said angrily:
"But who took the photo? Have fun, have fun, don't take photos at a party. Do you need to be taught this truth..."

Wu Di straightened his collar and said:
"I'll find out soon!"

Say whatever you want, the marimba cell phone rings, it's Donald Duck.

"Brother, I'm sorry about the photo. I sent someone to investigate immediately after the accident. Judging from the monitoring at the scene, there is a high probability that it should be those guys from Oklahoma City..."

"But it's not necessarily a bad thing if this matter is handled. I can announce to the outside world that you have always been the producer of the show, and coming here is a long-term plan. What do you think?"

Wu Di declined, as the producer of the program was not free of charge. He had to provide people or finance, and regardless of whether he provided people or finances, he would be bound to Old Tang later on.

Considering Lao Tang's future development, he didn't want to wade into this muddy water.

The two exchanged pleasantries again, and finally Wu Di thanked him and ended the conversation. After all, Old Tang was very particular about being able to offer those people in Goose City.

……

Back in Cleveland, Ariana, Scott and others who came to pick up the plane did not ask anything about the "Wheelchair Gate" incident, because Wu Di got off the plane running!

The group was frightened, but after seeing Wu Di's "slender" ankles, they went straight to the Cleveland Medical Center for examination.

Mancini couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the test results, and even secretly wanted to buy a ball.

Ariana, who came after hearing the news, also sighed repeatedly, what kind of physique does Wu Di have?
Does the legendary Chinese method of harvesting yin and replenishing yang really exist? !
Old Downey, Wu Di's training director, had doubts in his eyes. He had long thought that something was wrong with Wu Di and needed to be sliced...

Only Scott looked calm:
"I knew it! That's what Magic was like back then. The harder he worked before the game, the harder he performed during the game! When he found out he was sick and couldn't work anymore, he retired immediately!"

And put forward the exit strategy of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger:
"You might as well stay in the wheelchair later and let me motivate those young guys and tap out their potential! And this can also paralyze the Heat. When the critical moment comes, you suddenly come on the court and they are unexpectedly beaten by us. I was caught off guard..."

Wu Di nodded. Although Scott's actions are a bit silly, why not do it to add some fun to the game?
"In the first three quarters, if you are behind by double digits, you will play, otherwise you will stay until the fourth quarter..."

After taking the doctor's opinions into consideration, Scott finally finalized Wu Di's next playing strategy.

Although Wu Di can play with the injury, after all, the foot injury has not fully recovered, so there is absolutely nothing wrong with being careful!

……

At 04:30, a group of people appeared at Quicken Loans Arena pushing Wu Di in a wheelchair.

"Oh! Look who's here, Cleveland's great diplomat!"

"Wheelchair God of War, I wish I could be half as cool as you!"

"Boss, why don't you call me when you go out to play!?"

A lot of Cavaliers players gathered around to joke and joke, but no one criticized him like they did online.

In fact, if you think about those abusive remarks carefully, you can understand that Wu Di has always been a Neptune. True fans and supporters can only have opinions on the appearance of a female partner, how can they have an opinion on finding a female partner?
"Cough cough!"

Scott coughed twice, summoned everyone and said:
"You should all have heard about the so-called Wheelchair Gate incident... You can choose to believe those reports, or you can believe the person who is standing, no, sitting in front of you at this moment!"

"Now, please ask yourselves two questions. If it were you, would you go, and would you stay there..."

Everyone's expressions froze. Scott's question was very straightforward and realistic. The players who originally didn't show it but had some opinions lowered their heads at this moment.

Scott continued:

"He played a closed game last time. Needless to say, you all know how much risk he took! But he was willing to pay and bought us a rare victory!"

"But now, we were once again sniped by the insidious beasts in Miami on the sidelines! We lost the first two games like this, but we successfully adjusted our state and won three games in a row!"

"But if we lose this game, there is no doubt that our front man will be questioned like never before, and our team will be criticized by thousands of people, because this is a slap in the face of all of us!"

"Everyone is prosperous, and everyone suffers! We must never let this happen!"

"Wu Di can fight for us. Now, do we have to take practical actions to prove that we are worthy of being treated like this?"

Everyone clenched their fists and shouted in unison:
"YES!"

Scott nodded:
"It's time! Don't give them a chance in G7!"...

Seeing the overwhelming momentum from the Cavaliers, James frowned.

He is afraid of losing.

Even if Wu Di can't play, he is still afraid.

After all, it's already 3-2. If we lose another game, we'll say goodbye.

James knows very well that he is not good at fighting against the wind, otherwise he would not bring his talent to the Miami group "Galaxy Fleet".

Of course, who is good at fighting against the wind, even if it is an old hooligan, didn't he lose more and win less against the Pistons, and only won once?
James comforted himself.

"LeBron, you can organize everyone to shout a slogan later!"

The starting ceremony is about to begin, Wade touched James and said.

James came to his senses and nodded towards Wade.

"Wait no longer, the king is back!"

Soon, the starting ceremony began. The Heat players gathered together and chanted loudly, and James even performed a little:
"It's time to take down our piston!"

……

"Guys, let's have some fun today!"

In the TNT live broadcast room, Kenny Smith raised the microphone and said without interest.

"Yeah, he's right. As my teammate, I guarantee that this game will be a one-sided massacre. The Flash and the Little Emperor will not give Cleveland any chance!"

O'Neal, who has retired and joined TNT, answered.

Barkley touched the ring he won from Kenny Smith and struggled for a while. He wanted to say something dirty.

For example, "The last time someone said this was when I won the ring" and "No matter how bad the Cavaliers are, I will not choose the Heat as a team."

But he was afraid that the two would seize his words and ask him to gamble with his hard-earned ring, so he held it back and explained directly:

"The big screen on the field shows the starting lineups of both sides. For the Cavaliers, point guard Irving, shooting guard Butler, small forward Jamison, power forward Love, center Joe..."

However, before he could finish his explanation, he was stopped by O'Neal who directly grabbed the microphone:
"What are you afraid of, Lao Cha!"

Kenny Smith also laughed and said:

"Yes, don't you want to comment? Mr. Champion!"

Barkley listened to Kenny Smith's seductive tone and couldn't help but gestured to stop and said:

"Damn it, stop it, we are a serious program without age classification!"

However, this move caused the two of them to laugh:

"Come and play, Charles! You know what the audience wants to see! You stand as the knight. If you win, we will each give you a ring, and then we will lick your bald head!"

But Barkley only replied to them with one word:

"roll!"

On the court, as the jump ball whistle sounded, Jordan gritted his teeth and jumped up hard, bang!
As the audience screamed, the two of them actually took pictures of the basketball being thrown into the air by the referee at the same time!

The two were wrestling in the air, neither of them giving in. They both touched the ball and dropped it at the same time.

Although this situation is quite rare, experienced referees quickly make a judgment and re-jump the ball!
beep!
This time Jordan was half a beat slower, and Bosh successfully pushed the ball into James' hands with a faster bounce.

"Oh, 2-0! James broke through like a tank as soon as he came up!"

In the TNT live broadcast room, Kenny Smith passionately explained the game:

"There's no solution at all! Let's watch the slow-motion replay. James pushes Jamison and Love at the same time. OMG, it's so exciting! Welcome to the visual feast!"

"How will the Cavaliers respond? Without Woody, will anyone else step up? Is there anyone? This is the Quicken Loans Arena. Don't make the fans of Kremlin sad. WOW! Kyrie Irving! A layup!"

"You have to fight like this, so you can fight vigorously! The scene came alive!"

"Wait, damn, two plus one! It has to be The Flash!"

……

On the field, the Heat's Big Three took turns, while the Cavaliers used all their strength to cling to the score!
But in terms of offense alone, without Wu Di, the Cavaliers seem to have been disarmed. They can fight back, but their efficiency is less than a star and a half!
Soon, in less than 3 minutes, the Cavaliers fell behind by 13 points 7-6!
Seeing this situation, Scott decisively called a timeout, put more weight on defense, and deduced tactics to start betting on touch!

After the timeout, the Cavaliers successfully completed the corner screen tactics. Love threw half of his body and hit a strong three-pointer against James in the corner, successfully chasing the score to 13-10!

Quicken Loans Arena instantly transformed into a sea of ​​cheers!

And in the next round, the Heat instantly felt the pressure on the Cavaliers' defense increased dramatically!
James was double-teamed as soon as he broke through, but when he passed the ball, the Cavaliers players burned themselves to complete the defense. They were very energetic!
As the defensive slogans of the fans became louder and louder, the Heat were cornered by the 24 seconds that were about to be lost!

Wade missed the shot, Jordan got stuck, Love made a rare roar and grabbed the rebound before James!
But the Heat are not soft persimmons. In the battle of life and death, no one dares to neglect!

Irving wanted to make a fast break, but was intercepted by the fierce Mario before he could reach the midfield!
Wade immediately stepped forward to double-team!

At the critical moment, Irving's wrist flew and he passed the basketball back to Butler dangerously!
Butler rushed forward, but was blocked by James before he could get very far!

He was too thin in his rookie season, and he is not the current opponent of James at all. He was blocked a lot and his strength was not smooth. If he didn't pay attention, he was taken away from the basketball!

James pushed back quickly with the ball, and Jamison gritted his teeth and chased after him——

beep!
The whistle sounded!

Even though Jamison grabbed James' shoulder tightly, James still completed the layup!

Two plus one!

"The game is over! Let me tell you, the game is over!"

O'Neal's mouth formed an "O" shape, and he waved his arms and said:

"LeBron's eye of death has appeared! He is more serious than ever. The Cavaliers have been targeted by death!"

28-20!

At the end of the first quarter, the Cavaliers trailed by 8 points!
"Fight! Beat me hard! This is the decisive battle we have been waiting for! Let them see what the Iron Curtain is..."

Scott drank another wave of chicken soup during the break:
"More than 2 fans are watching, they can't even survive the second quarter!"

The answer is that I really can’t survive it!
The Cavaliers played resolutely, but the Heat played ruthlessly!

As the outside world said, they have been pushed into a corner!
In a life-or-death battle with a big score of 3-2, Wu Di was not on the court again. The Heat's Big Three simply could not bear the consequences of losing to the Cavaliers again!
Although the Cavaliers had the ball at the beginning of the second quarter, they did not last for 6 minutes. The Heat used their more ruthless attitude and experienced experience to cut the score to 42-31!

And James also has free throws!
"FXXK LBJ!"

"FXXK LBJ!"

"FXXK LBJ!"

……

The fans at the scene were yelling, but James made a sure hit!

43-31!

The Cavaliers are significantly behind!

Wu Di is not on the court, now is his great time to prove to the people of Cleveland who is the real emperor!
