The world of basketball

Chapter 54 Victory
Mu Xiaobei and Popovich were watching the game on the TV in the locker room, and Mu Xiaobei was a little moved.

At this time, there are 2 minutes left in the game, that is, it has entered the final period, but at this time the Spurs did not have the collapse in many people's minds, but firmly bit the score.

One minute and 40 seconds, the score came to 89:90, and the Spurs were one point behind. In the absence of Popovich, the team still played very disciplined, with clear goals and styles of play.

Now the Spurs do not have a center in the traditional sense, but Ade took the fifth position, Kuzma played the fourth position, Gay, who returned from injury, played the third position, and Mudiay played the second position Jeremy Lin plays the first position.

This is usually the Spurs' final lineup, um, when Gay is replaced and Mu Xiaobei is replaced.

Jeremy Lin's bleeding had stopped, and he seemed to be the most calm commander of the Spurs, sorting out the Spurs' offense.

Adelaide mentioned the high position, Mudiay made a cover for Kuzma, Kuzma made an empty cut from the bottom line, Jeremy Lin passed the ball in time, Kuzma turned around after receiving the ball, and did not sway to switch defenses Robertson, a base pass to Jeremy Lin who cut over.

Shuhao got rid of Westbrook with Ade's cover, and made a catch and throw.

Westbrook dribbled the ball at the top of the arc. After two dribbles, he used Adams' pick-and-roll to accelerate directly, and then suddenly slowed down to make an emergency stop zombie jumper.

Bang——

The ball reached the front of the basket, but the rebound was caught by Adams. Adams scored the ball with a high rebound, and the front board Mamba was terrifying.

Mudiay holds the ball, and if there are two ball-holding points on the field, there are two ball-holding points, but more is still for Adelaide, let Adelaide play at a 45-degree angle.

Adelaide didn't even dribble this time. After pushing Adams away with his back and hips, he turned around and hit the board.

Three possessions later, with 44 seconds left in the game, the Thunder trailed by one point and requested a timeout.

At the last moment, I still gave the ball to Westbrook, Pickled Pepper came out to catch the ball, stepped back and made a three-pointer after continuous crotch left and right, thinking about making a quick one first, and then keeping it in my own hands at the last time.

However, the ball did not soar, and Adelaide grabbed the rebound desperately and handed the ball to Jeremy Lin for stability.

Jeremy Lin quickly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, stopped the ball one step outside the three-point line, and made a dry pull.

shhhhh--

A super long three-pointer hit!

Do you want to grab one?Coincidentally, me too!

The Spurs' lead was extended to four points.

The Thunder only had the last timeout left, so they didn't request a timeout immediately. They quickly served the ball in the backcourt, and Westbrook quickly pushed forward and wanted to make a fast break to get a quick two points.

Ade couldn't resist, and it took only six seconds for Westbrook to make a layup.

With 28 seconds left in the game, the Spurs led by two points.

Jeremy Lin stayed on the outside and dribbled the ball to kill time. When there were eight seconds left in the attack time, Mudiay came out and Jeremy Lin passed the ball.

Mudiay failed to deceive Robertson with a false shot. Mudiay was very uncomfortable with Robertson's defense and returned the ball to Jeremy Lin.

With four seconds left, Jeremy Lin took his time and suddenly made a shot, but Westbrook predicted it.

The ball was shot, but it didn't look like it was going in at first glance. The ball bounced on the basket and bounced far away. Adele was stuck behind Adams and felt very uncomfortable.

However, at this time, Kuzma, like a god descended to earth, got the ball and poured it into the basket fiercely!

kill the game.

In the end, the Spurs defended their home court and won the game with 98:94 in the absence of the team's starting center and the team's coaches Mu Xiaobei and Popovich.

"Hey Wood, didn't we win?" Popovich patted Mu Xiaobei on the shoulder.

"Boss, do you think I was too impulsive? But I saw that Jeremy's nose was bleeding, and I was really angry." Mu Xiaobei said.

"I know, I know you respect Jeremy and you like him a lot, and sometimes as a leader you need to do that, you need to stand up for your teammates, but you have to remember, this league gave you Jobs, you can protest, but don't fight the league, you know what I mean?" Popovich said.

Mu Xiaobei nodded half-understood, he didn't know why Americans like to talk in circles when they are old, can't they speak clearly at once?

"I mean, you can bash the referee, but you must not rise to the height of the league, because because of the league, we can have food, understand? Don't do things that are harmful to the league. "Popovich said earnestly.

He knew that Mu Xiaobei was a young and energetic person, he looked very shy, humble and polite, um, it was all just pretending!

Many times people's humility does not mean that he is really humble, it is just a manifestation of his self-cultivation, or that he hides a lot of disdain for the outside world very well.

Two technical fouls, a fine of [-] US dollars, Mu Xiaobei could only hold his nose and pay it. Although he felt that the referee was disgusting, he really couldn't insult the referee, otherwise the rules would be broken.

Usually, if the rules are broken and the breakers are not punished accordingly, it will be difficult for the rules to have its credibility. Therefore, as a person who works for the alliance, it is impossible for Mu Xiaobei to fight against the rules of the alliance. , it is even more impossible to fight against this alliance.

Well, so he obediently paid the fine.

Although the process has been tortuous, the first victory in March is indeed a good start for the new month for the Spurs, which is a good sign.

However, in the game against the Nuggets two days later, Mu Xiaobei seemed to be "cared for" by the referee.

Less obvious fouls are basically not blown, and obvious fouls are basically not blown. Mu Xiaobei doesn't know whether it is his foul language in the last game or his own skin that provoked the referee's revenge.

Mu Xiaobei's mentality was a bit broken, so he didn't perform well in this game, and it looked like he was blown away by Jokic.

Mu Xiaobei was a little frustrated, of course it wasn't because of the upcoming criticism from the so-called experts, nor was it because of a mistake in this game. Of course, it must be a pity to lose a game, but what bothered him was the things he was about to face in his career.

What if those referees really targeted themselves?
Of course, he believes that most of the referees are fair and impartial, and they all have professional ethics in their hearts, but thinking about Jeremy Lin's unfair encounters in the league, and thinking about those games that were obviously misjudged and missed, this shows that There are scum everywhere, even if it is a symbol of fairness and impartiality.

Then what should I do?

He felt that if he admitted his mistake and bowed his head in public, he would definitely not suffer such unfair treatment, but could he really swallow this breath and bow his head?
This is wrong, what is wrong is wrong, and what is wrong should not be compromised with him.

At this time, Karlin called and told Mu Xiaobei that he was invited as a guest on a talk show.
