Chapter 241 Are you really going to trade?

"Super God Pickled Pepper: The unique secret skill of the former Indiana Pacers star Paul George. This skill is an active skill. After using it, the host will randomly increase all the abilities of the game by 2%-5%. However, after 3 consecutive games, the state will be sluggish. Please use it with caution!"

Thinking of this wonderful setting of "one game with ghosts and three games with ghosts", Wang Dalin couldn't help but feel full of satisfaction.

That's right... If he uses this skill now, it's not certain whether he can win tonight's game. After all, it's just "a random increase of all personal abilities by 2%-5%".
And the most frightening thing is... the next three games may be cold, and if you are unlucky, you may even lose three games in a row.

If he was still in the Pistons last season, he wouldn't have to worry too much. After all, the overall strength of the team is strong enough, even if he is in a slump, it may not have much impact... But now, with the strength of the Clippers, once he is in a slump, it is estimated that he will see who loses.

If his lateral agility could be a few points higher, he would use this move without hesitation, because he would most likely meet the minimum requirements for "Hao Zhi Long Shot"...With "Hao Zhi Long Shot", he couldn't believe that he couldn't win tonight's game!

But now his horizontal agility plus equipment bonus is only 85, even if he can trigger the maximum 5% ability increase of "Super God Pickled Pepper", it is absolutely impossible to directly increase it to 90, so it is impossible for him to meet the minimum requirement of "Hao Zhi Long Shot".

The Pacers' offensive was still unstoppable, and Wang Zhizhi, who was sent by Dunleavy, was also closely watched by the opponent, basically there was no chance to make a move.

Wang Dalin had to do his best every time he attacked, and he could only hold on to the score, so that the point difference would not continue to expand. It would be tantamount to wishful thinking if he wanted to catch up or overtake the score.

Until he was replaced in the second half of the third quarter, the Clippers were still 11 points behind, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up.

"Damn! Die is dead!" Seeing his teammates struggling on the field, Wang Dalin finally made a decision, "'Super God Pickled Pepper', I hope I can really be super god tonight, right?"

He decisively used "Super God Pickled Pepper", and in an instant he felt a sense of strength all over his body. After the "climax", he seemed to feel that he suddenly became a little stronger.

Checked the ability values... Sure enough, all the ability values ​​have increased by 2-3 points!
Now that the "big move" had been released, Wang Dalin quickly took the initiative to ask for a fight. Although Deng Lewei felt a little surprised, he still satisfied his request and quickly replaced him on the field by taking advantage of the dead ball.

The Pacers were obviously not prepared enough, and Carlisle didn't expect Dunleavy to replace Wang Dalin at this time.

According to Carlisle's estimation, Dunleavy should replace Wang Dalin in about three or four minutes in the fourth quarter, and let him play now...is it too early?

But after thinking about it, Carlisle felt that it was the best choice and the only choice to replace Wang Dalin at this time... If it was delayed for a few minutes, it might really be too late!
No matter how strong Wang Dalin's personal ability is, it is still too difficult to lead the team to catch up with the double-digit point difference in about 8 minutes... unless he can turn on some "bug" such as 100% hit again.

Obviously... Although "Super God Pickled Pepper" is powerful, it's not that powerful.

……

At the end of the third quarter, Wang Dalin quickly contributed a wave of 3-of-2 shots after returning to the court, and finally chased the point difference to single digits... The score between the two sides was 75:66, and the Clippers were still 9 points behind.

During the intermission, Wang Dalin kept taking deep breaths. He had to recover more of his physical strength, even if it was only a little bit more, it might be able to affect the outcome of the game at a critical moment.

Fortunately, after he used "Super God Pickled Pepper", his physical strength improved a little, and his original physical strength was as high as 93, so he felt that his physical strength should be enough to fill the audience.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Wang Dalin scored 5 goals in the first 4 offenses, and he also stormed the inside and made Foster 3 fouls and went to the free throw line... Not only did he lead the team to close the difference between the two teams to only 1 point, but also directly beat the Pacers' starting center to 6 fouls.

Everyone has seen the Clippers' hope of winning, and even Barkley has danced and celebrated in the TNT live broadcast room.

But the good times didn't last long... Carlisle directly pushed O'Neal to the center position and arranged for Artest to move to the fourth position. Wang Dalin's offense suddenly encountered a major obstacle.

Moreover, Reggie Miller and Jr. O'Neal continued to show off. Artest, who has always been punctual, even scored two key three-pointers in this quarter.

Although Wang Dalin still maintained a high offensive efficiency, he could only watch helplessly as the Pacers opened up the point difference to 8 points.

Since then, the point difference between the two sides has been hovering between 4-8 points until the last moment... In the end, the Clippers lost 101:105, ending their winning streak.

整个下半场王大林13投9中，其中三分球5投4中，罚球10投9中，半场就砍下了31分12篮板3助攻1抢断，比大多数人全场的数据还强！
And he grabbed a full 19 rebounds in this game, directly breaking his single-game rebound record once again.

If he wins this game, it will become an extremely bright masterpiece in his career. It's a pity... he scored 52+19+7 in a single game and still lost. It's too bad!

After the game, Wang Dalin, Reggie Miller, Jermaine O'Neal, Ron Artest and others hugged and greeted Carlisle before returning to the locker room.

As soon as I returned to the locker room, I saw my teammates laughing.

Wang Dalin didn't know why, and he couldn't help laughing when he saw the slow motion of Smith kicking Barkley's ass on the TV in the locker room.

"Okay, everyone... Now that everyone is laughing, we should sum up tonight's loss!" Dunleavy clapped his hands and greeted the team members, "Except for Darling-Wang, I think everyone of you should review yourself!"

Everyone was ashamed, even Wang Dalin was no exception... The main reason for him was that he still lost after using the trick of "Super God Pickled Pepper".

This is also normal... When you play a "small trick", you feel like you are awesome, but it is entirely possible for the other party to suddenly have a "small explosion" from a certain star.

What's more, tonight, the Pacers team is not just a certain star "small explosion", but almost the whole team is "small explosion"... With the ebb and flow, how can a mere "Super God Pickled Pepper" be enough?
To be honest, if he hadn't used "Roaring God" and "Roar of the Wolf King" before, they would have lost at least 15 points tonight.

As for the auxiliary S-level star skill "touch your head"... He has already used it for Maggette, but he doesn't see any effect at all.

Considering Maggette's terrible state tonight, let alone "touch your head", even if you turn him into Xu Zheng, it is probably useless.

On November 11, the Clippers lost another 22:102 away game against the Timberwolves.

其实这场比赛队友们的表现都不错，尤其是马盖蒂和理查德森两人合砍了49分11篮板6助攻3抢断3盖帽……不过很可惜，王大林拉胯了！
他全场20投仅8中，其中三分球7投2中，罚球8投6中，“只得到”24分10篮板7助攻1盖帽，完全被砍下37分19篮板8助攻3抢断4盖帽的凯文.加内特给压制了。

"Hard special" finally got tough in front of Wang Dalin. After the match, he was quite proud of himself and boasted to reporters at the press conference.

他本赛季开赛以来场均可以得到26.1分14.4篮板6.1助攻1.9抢断2.8盖帽，投篮命中率50.4%，罚球命中率87.3%……确实很有自吹自擂的资格！

In the entire Western Conference, only Wang Dalin can surpass him in terms of personal data. Even O'Neal, Duncan, Kobe and others are much worse than him, and the current record of the Timberwolves is 8 wins and 5 losses, which is obviously better than the Clippers' 5 wins and 4 losses.

上一周王大林凭着场均41分11篮板11助攻1抢断1.7盖帽的恐怖数据拿到了西部周最佳，这一周他自然是跟这个奖项无缘了。

上周快船队好赖不济还是打出了2胜1负的战绩，这周直接1胜2负，哪怕他场均依然有36.3分13篮板8.7助攻0.7抢断0.7盖帽也无济于事……没办法，球队战绩太差了！

……

After playing the Timberwolves, the Clippers finally ended this wave of road trips and can return to Los Angeles to take a good rest.

On November 11, the Clippers played against the Rockets in the Western Conference at home, and Wang Dalin collapsed again.

There is nothing he can do about it... The side effects of "Super God Pickled Pepper" are too powerful, if it makes you depressed, then it must be depressed, and it is very depressed.

这场比赛他全场17投仅6中，其中三分球6投1中，罚球5投4中，只得到17分9篮板8助攻。

Fortunately, he doesn't have a header, so if he knew he was in a bad state, he would pass the ball more to his teammates, otherwise his performance would be even worse... Just looking at his personal data, a quasi-triple-double doesn't seem like a big deal, does it?
And the Clippers actually won?

王大林虽然状态低迷，可是“二当家”马盖蒂却表现得非常神勇，他全场23投13中，其中三分球6投2中，罚球8投7中，砍下了35分7篮板4助攻2抢断1盖帽。

上一场打森林狼队他也砍下了28分7篮板4助攻1抢断2盖帽，连续两场都有出色发挥。

Maggette continued to perform bravely, but Wang Dalin hesitated... What he said to Carlisle before was not just for fun. He really wanted to suggest that "Lord Baylor" use Maggette to trade Artest.

So after returning from Minnesota, he was going to find an opportunity to chat with "Lord Baylor", but before he took action, Maggette gave him another big surprise, which made him a little embarrassed to go to "Lord Baylor".

"Should we go to Elkin?" Wang Dalin hesitated.

To be honest, Maggette is pretty good as a "secondary player". Although the defense is a little bit worse, the offensive strength is better than the current Artest. The small forward with an average of 20+5+3 per game is not a cabbage that can be seen everywhere!
Among other things, among these rookies this year, even LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony have not yet reached this kind of data!

And looking at Maggette's entire career, this gentleman's state is extremely stable. Even if he has already played as a substitute in the Warriors, Bucks and Bobcats in the later period, he also has very impressive offensive firepower... Although there are two sluggish games this season, it is actually mostly because it is still the beginning of the season and the state has not been adjusted to the best.

In the NBA, not every player trains hard like Kobe during the offseason. He often gains more than ten pounds in one summer, and it is enough to lose weight after the training camp.

For example, O'Neill is like this. The annual training time is his time to lose weight. Otherwise, how could he slowly grow from about 135KG to the current 150KG?

Wang Dalin thought over and over again, and decided that he should go to "Lord Baylor" to discuss it. After all, the team is not short of offensive firepower, but lacks defensive champions like Artest.

With the current lineup alone, it is extremely difficult to reach the playoffs in the West, and there is no way to go any further, unless the defensive strength can be raised to a higher level.

On the afternoon of November 11th, Wang Dalin came to the office of "Master Baylor" alone. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that besides "Master Baylor", the head coach Deng Levy was also there.

"Darling, I didn't expect you to come here too. Come and sit down!" Elgin Baylor was very enthusiastic when he saw Wang Dalin's arrival. He immediately got up and asked him to sit down, and then ordered his secretary to bring him a cup of fragrant tea. "This is the good tea that Mr. Li Ning brought me from China. You should try it!"

Wang Dalin took a sip carefully, feeling that the tea was quite bitter, but after only two or three seconds, he felt a burst of sweetness, and the tea fragrance was extremely mellow.

"Good tea!" Wang Dalin couldn't help admiring loudly... In fact, this guy doesn't understand tea at all.

Seeing Wang Dalin's appearance, "Master Baylor" couldn't help showing a smile: "If you think it's good tea, then you can't be wrong...By the way, why are you here today?"

Wang Dalin looked at Deng Lewei, who smiled and said, "What do you think I'm doing? I'm here to discuss with Elgin about reinforcements in the middle of the season."

As soon as Wang Dalin heard that he was interested, he hurriedly asked, "Mike, are you here for this too? That's fine, I'm here today for this too!"

Dunleavy smiled and said: "The team's current record is not good, I knew you would not be able to sit still! Tell me, what do you think?"

Wang Dalin blinked his eyes twice, and asked back, "Mike, can you tell me what you think first?"

Dunleavy said with a smile: "Forget it, anyway, I have already told Elgin a lot just now, so let's talk about it again!"

After finishing speaking, he took a sip of tea, cleared his throat, and said, "I think the most important thing about the team is the lack of defense, so we should use some offensive players to trade some defensive players back."

Wang Dalin asked again: "Who do you think we should trade with?"

Dunleavy laughed and said, "Anyone is fine...as long as you, Corey, and Quentin are kept, everyone else can be put on the shelves!"

Wang Dalin narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Mike, if I suggest sending Corey away, will you object?"

Dunleavy was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Why? Corey did a great job, why do you want the team to send him away?"

"Lord Baylor" was obviously taken aback, and asked, "Yes, why?"

Wang Dalin smiled and said, "What if I propose to exchange Corey for Ron Artest?"

Dunleavy immediately stopped talking... These two people are not ordinary people, and their strengths are comparable. Even the most astute general manager has to weigh it over and over again before making a judgment.

"Master Baylor" was silent for at least ten seconds, and finally asked, "Darling, are you serious?"

Wang Dalin nodded and said: "Of course, you should know from Mike's expression that my proposal obviously moved him!"

Dunleavy smiled wryly and said, "Nonsense! How can you not be tempted? But will this deal work? As far as I know, Ron just signed a four-year, $4 million contract with the Pacers this summer, and Corey is the same. This season is still the first season of his new contract!"

"Lord Baylor" also said: "Yes, from the contract extension between the Pacers and Ron, it can be seen that they value Ron very much, and they will definitely not trade him easily!"

Wang Dalin smiled and said, "Even if we use Corey to trade, won't they talk to us?"

"Master Baylor" frowned slightly and said, "Darling, you have to know that we also attach great importance to Corey. This level of importance... can be said to be second only to you in our team!"

Wang Dalin smiled and said: "Of course I know! But I can also tell you very bluntly, if the team has the current lineup, we can make a fortune if we can reach the playoffs, and it is almost impossible to go further. But if Ron comes... Maybe we can think about how far we can go in the playoffs!"

"Master Baylor" turned to look at Dun Levy, only to see the old man nodded and said: "Darling is right, if Ron can join, our strength can indeed be improved."

"Master Baylor" bowed his head and pondered for a long time, finally raised his head and said: "This matter is very important, I need to think it over carefully, can you give me a few days?"

Wang Dalin nodded and said, "Okay, no problem!"

Dun Levy also said: "You have to think about it carefully, but I think Darling's suggestion is very good, please think carefully!"

After coming out of the office of "Lord Baylor", Wang Dalin declined Deng Levi's dinner invitation and returned to his home alone.

The design plan for the mansion in Beverly Hills was approved by the city government in September, and it has been nearly two months since construction began... Due to the large amount of work, it will take at least half a year before it can be completed.

At that time, it will take several months to renovate, and if you move in...at least by the end of next year.

……

On the evening of November 11, something embarrassing for Wang Dalin happened again.

在主场对阵篮网队的比赛中，他全场19投仅6中，其中三分球7投1中，罚球6投5中，只得到18分9篮板7助攻。

Not surprisingly, the Clippers lost the game 86:92.

Scoring less than 20 points in two consecutive games also set Wang Dalin's lowest record since the second grade.

If this kind of quasi-triple-double data were replaced by other people, the media might write articles to praise him, but this target was Wang Dalin, and the reporters would not be polite to him, and criticized him one after another.

其实王大林本赛季的场均数据并不差，至今他场均可以砍下34.7分11.9篮板9.5助攻1.5抢断1.7盖帽，投篮命中率52.3%，三分命中率43%，罚球命中率84.2%。

Compared with last season, his personal data this season is actually slightly stronger, but what do the reporters care about this?

They only saw Wang Dalin's relatively sluggish performance in three consecutive games, and they began to pick and choose him, almost describing him as a cancer of the Clippers.

To this, Wang Dalin just said—"Hehe!"

就在11月29日主场迎战掘金队的比赛中，王大林全场20投12中，其中三分球7投4中，罚球14投13中，砍下41分10篮板10助攻3抢断3盖帽，率领快船队以102:98力克对手。

The side effects of "Super God Pickled Pepper" were finally exhausted. Wang Dalin used a long-lost 40+ large triple-double to announce to the world that he is still the terrifying "Grim Reaper".

That's not the only good news. That night, he received a call from "Lord Baylor"... The deal between Maggette and Artest is about to start!

The Clippers offer Maggette and a 2004 second-round pick, while the Pacers need to send Artest and some cash.

Maggette and the Clippers signed a five-year $5 million contract, the same $3500 million per year, while Artest's annual salary this season is only $700 million, so the Pacers need to add some cash to balance the difference between the salaries of the two.

Although the deal has not been finalized yet, "Lord Baylor" told Wang Dalin that "King King" Larry Bird has verbally agreed, and Artest will join the Clippers soon.

This is really great news!
For this reason, Wang Dalin even took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, opened the bottle cap and blew it down in one gulp.

With Artest's iron-blooded defense, even this season, Wang Dalin feels that he can slightly improve his final goal...

　Thanks to "Rabbit Spirit", "shh", "You are poisonous, are you?" for sending monthly tickets for encouragement!
