Chapter 259 How can a pile of change compare to a whole bill?
During the warm-up before the game, not only Wang Dalin and his former teammates hugged each other, but also the head coaches of the two sides, Deng Levy and Larry Brown, clasped their hands and chatted happily. The atmosphere between the two sides was quite harmonious.

Uh...at least on the surface!

Wang Dalin has a good relationship with Da Ben and Hamilton, after all, they are sworn brothers; he also has a good relationship with Battelle, Boozer, McGinnis, Okur and others, and they must be closer than ordinary teammates.

But the new members of the Pistons, such as Elton Brand... Wang Dalin and him could only be regarded as acquaintances before, and they were far from being friends, so they did not have any interaction with him in this round of "old friends reminiscing about old times before the game".

Brand was also happy and relaxed. He never liked this kind of "social" greetings. In his opinion, as a professional player, it's over after seeing the real story on the court, and the pre-match greetings are superfluous.

他本赛季的数据比上赛季差不多，目前是场均20.7分9.1篮板2.7助攻0.8抢断1.4盖帽，投篮命中率51.2%，罚球命中率79.8%。

With a strong rebounder like Da Ben around him, he can still average 9.1 rebounds per game. He is worthy of being one of the top ten power forwards in the Western Conference... Well, he should be the No. [-] power forward in the Eastern Conference now, if Jermaine O'Neal is counted as a center!

In fact, he is still a little dissatisfied, because he used to play fast in the Clippers, so his average data per game will be correspondingly better.

Now in the Pistons, Larry Brown's team is notoriously slow-paced, and it's not easy to average 20+10 per game under his hands.

He can play such an average stat this season, which is the result of Larry Brown's "fucking the main force". His average playing time is more than 39 minutes per game!
In the TNT live broadcast room.

Barkley grinned and said, "Hey, viewers and friends in front of the TV, welcome to TNT Sports Channel. You are here tonight. First of all, I have to grandly introduce our special guest Larry Bird..."

Bird smiled and said, "Thank you Charles for your warm introduction, but I believe that there are no audience friends in front of the TV who don't know me. You should focus on introducing the one next to you!"

Jordan beside Barkley laughed loudly and said, "Larry, do you think the audience friends don't know me?"

Smith hurriedly said: "Impossible, they don't know me, and it's impossible not to know the 'great Michael Jordan'. Are you right, Charles?"

Barkley laughed jokingly: "Who knows? Anyway, I don't know this guy!"

Jordan smiled and said, "Charles, it seems that you are holding grudges again, right?"

Barkley narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Remember grudges? Do I have any grudges against you?"

Jordan smiled and said: "Well, let me think about it, it should be 1993... That time I led the Bulls to beat you in the finals, the big score was 4:2, am I right?"

Bird added: "That's right, the MVP of the regular season that year was Charles, so he was very unconvinced!"

Smith also added a knife: "He still kept saying that he was the best basketball player on the planet... Hey, Charles, what did you say when the reporter interviewed you later, how about telling us again?"

Barkley's dark old face flushed, and he said angrily, "I said—'I am the best basketball player on Earth...As for Michael, he is not from Earth at all!' Yes, that's what I said at the time, how about it?"

Bird laughed and said: "In terms of strength, you are so-so. The only championship was won by hugging Darling-Wang's thigh... But when it comes to shame, no one here can compare to you!"

Smith nodded and smiled, "That's right! That's it!"

Barkley turned to look at Jordan, who smiled and said, "What do you see me doing? I'm not from Earth!"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience burst into laughter, and even Barkley himself couldn't help laughing.

After laughing, Smith still had the best professionalism, and said in a timely manner: "Guys, who do you think will win this game tonight?"

Jordan thought for a while: "It should be the Clippers!"

Both Bird and Barkley were taken aback, and Barkley asked, "Isn't it? Even Ron was injured in the Clippers, and Quentin, Alonzo, Bobby, Pedrago and other generals were unable to play. Although I have always had confidence in Darling, but... can he do it alone?"

Bird also said: "Yes, the strengths of the two sides are not at the same level at all!"

Smith laughed and said, "Michael, I don't dare to stand with you this time. Let me express my opinion first. I am optimistic about the Pistons!"

Jordan smiled: "It seems that you are all optimistic about the Pistons tonight, aren't you?"

Bird nodded and said, "That's right, I'm definitely optimistic about the Pistons!"

Barkley hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said: "Yes, I am also optimistic about the Pistons!"

Jordan smiled and said, "Well, why don't we make a bet? Let's bet a little bit, how about $10000?"

Bird and Barkley looked at each other and immediately agreed, "Okay, no problem!"

Old Smith blushed and said, "You are all rich people, I don't dare to bet so big anymore, I have lost to Charles several times during this time!"

Jordan smiled and said, "Okay, if you lose, you can give me $1000, is that all right?"

Smith nodded and said, "No problem!"

Barkley asked: "Michael, can you talk about it specifically? Why are you so optimistic about the Clippers? Is it just because they have Darling King?"

Jordan smiled and said: "It seems that you still don't understand the concept of a pile of small change and a single bill! Well, I'll explain it to you!"

After finishing speaking, he took a sip of the coffee on the table, and continued: "The current Darling-Wang is like a big $100 ticket, and a few people on the side of the Pistons are equivalent to $10, $20, or $50 in change, so they can't compare to Darling-Wang alone!"

Bird retorted: "It can't be compared like this? Elton is an All-Star power forward. Even if Darling-Wang is better than him, it's not that much better, right?"

Smith also said: "Yes, the Clippers also have Big Ben and Richard, and they have also been selected to the All-Star team this season!"

Jordan sneered and said, "Maybe what I said may sound harsh to you, but that's the truth... The gap between All-Stars and All-Stars is not as small as you think! Just like back then, I was an All-Star, and Charles was also an All-Star. Can he compare with me?"

Bird and Smith nodded and said, "Really!"

Barkley said angrily: "Just talk about things, why use me as an example? Fuck! Michael, I won the MVP of the regular season at least once. Why can't I be compared with you?"

Jordan smiled and said, "I have won the regular season MVP 5 times, and Larry has won 3 times. What's so embarrassing about you only winning 1 time?"

Barkley said angrily: "That year, I fought you six times in the finals. It can be said that although the defeat was glorious, why can't you be smug?"

Jordan smiled and said, "It's an honor to lose asshole! If you lose, you lose. What excuses are you looking for? I was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs in the Eastern Conference for three consecutive years, and then I was eliminated by the Pistons for three consecutive years. Did I find an excuse?"

Bird nodded and said, "That's right, if you lose, you lose. People only care about who the winner is, and no one cares about whether the loser is an honor to lose!"

Although Barkley was extremely wronged, he also knew that these words were "rough words but not rough", so he had to keep silent.

Smith said rhythmically: "By the way, Michael, you should explain the change and the whole money, the explanation just now is really not convincing!"

Jordan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll just say a little more! Let's take this season as an example. Kenyon Martin and Michael Reed are both All-Stars, but do you think they can be compared to Tim Duncan or Darling King together?"

Bird and the others shook their heads: "No!"

Jordan continued: "So, All-Stars like them are what I call change. To put it bluntly, they can't even be considered pseudo-superstars. Compared with real superstars, they are certainly far behind!"

Barkley asked: "Even so, the Pistons have three All-Stars in the starting lineup, while the Clippers only have Darling-Wang. No matter how strong they are, it's hard to beat the opponent, right?"

Jordan laughed: "So I'm betting that Darling-Wang will blow up tonight!"

Smith muttered in a low voice: "You dare to bet $30000 just to bet on his explosion?"

Jordan smiled and said, "It's only $30000, and it's no big deal if you lose!"

Smith gave him a thumbs up: "You are a local tyrant, I admire you!"

……

Wang Dalin didn't know that Jordan and Barkley had another big gamble, and he had done everything he could to win tonight's game.

First of all, he dedicated "touch your head" to Korver, not because he is the strongest, but mainly because he expects him to be in good condition and make a few more three-pointers.

Then he decisively turned on "Super God Pickled Pepper"... Compared with other teammates, he should be the one who most wants to win this game, even if the next three games are in a slump, he can't care about it.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned on "Buddha's Radiance"... Since it can only be used once a season, and it can only be used during the regular season, why not use it tonight?
When this skill was turned on, Wang Dalin felt that his whole body was full of strength... At this moment, he felt that he could easily score 60 points in this game tonight, and even 70 points or 80 points might not be impossible.

It is worthy of the "Buddha's light", a super "BUFF" that can only be enjoyed once a season, this effect is really amazing!
In the game, the effect was really good. Wang Dalin made 6 of 5 shots in the first quarter, including 2 of 2 three-pointers and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 14 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.

Just looking at this statistic seems to be quite impressive, but in fact this is just his worst performance in this game!
第二节王大林就像打了鸡血一样，单节10投7中，其中三分球6投3中，罚球4投4中，砍下21分4篮板2助攻1抢断1盖帽。

半场就砍下35分7篮板4助攻1抢断1盖帽，不论换到谁身上都可以称之为超常发挥了吧？

Even Kobe, who scored 81 points in a single game, "only scored" 26 points in the first half.

As for Chamberlain on the night when he scored 100 points in a single game... It's been too long. At this stage and even later generations, the only impression of that game is that he was holding the blank paper with "100" written on it.

As the saying goes, "Where there is a picture, there is the truth", he doesn't have any video of the game... just a photo after the game is useless?
That fellow Chamberlain was not very good looking, and he was still holding a piece of white paper with "100" written on it and giggling, just like Ronaldo who was holding a "Golden Throat Throat". This thing... Are you sure you are not from the Liaoning Provincial Folk Art Troupe?
Wang Dalin's performance in the third quarter was even stronger, especially when Elton Brand was facing him, he almost exploded every time.

It was also... When playing against Big Ben or Boozer, Wang Dalin would be more or less scruples about brotherhood, even if he played singles with the ball, he would not press his opponent to death.

But Brand... what the hell are you?do i know you

What's more, Brand is a typical short power forward in the NBA. With his strength and this short and stocky attribute, even if he defends Garnett, he may not suffer a disadvantage.

In fact, Garnett suffered a great loss under the Rockets' super short center Chuck Hayes. He was indeed much taller than Hayes, but his physical strength was much worse. As a result, Hayes affected his stability in the lower plate many times in that game, and his shooting percentage was frighteningly low.

But how can Wang Dalin's strength be compared with "hard special"?

To put it bluntly, the entire league is now competing with Wang Dalin, except for O'Neill, who is really less than a handful!
When Wang Dalin played 2K games in the previous life, every time he played the center role, he would choose the fastest one, because in that era, power was really not important anymore, and speed was king!

Some people say it's wrong, isn't Antetokounmpo just a powerful player?
That's right, Antetokounmpo is indeed a powerful type, but how fast is he?
As a player with a height of 211cm, Antetokounmpo's speed is almost as fast as most swingmen, even if he is as strong as Kevin Durant, he may not be faster than him.

So don't think that Brother Antetokounmpo relied on his strength to play this country, he mainly relied on his shamelessness to step up... Uh, it's speed!

(When writing this sentence, Pharaoh himself felt so strange... He was obviously relying on a stepping stone!)
Or back to the game!

Wang Dalin's performance in the first half was already extremely bad, but looking at the score, the Clippers are still a little behind... The absence of several main rotation players has too much impact, especially the absence of Artest, which means that Wang Dalin is exhausted on both ends of the offense and defense.

Therefore, at the beginning of the second half, Wang Dalin raised his head to the sky twice, and directly released the two big moves of "Wolf King's Roar" and "Roaring Tianzun"...
