Chapter 628 Spring Battle, Gracie Throws the Ball? Wang Xiucheng and Doncic Battle for the Ball at t
Ben Sullivan shook his head and smiled, picked up the basketball and threw it to Wang Xiucheng, shouting, "Try doing it again if you dare."
"Bring it on, who's afraid of who!" Wang Xiucheng caught the basketball with a disdainful look, took a step forward, and stood outside the three-point line.
He patted it, spun around, lowered his shoulders, jumped, and made his move...
Bang!
The ball, which had been prepared for a good ten seconds, slammed directly into the rim.
Ben Sullivan yelled at Wang Xiucheng, "You still dare to say you didn't fool me?"
"Bring me the ball!" Wang Xiucheng shouted defiantly.
Sullivan threw the basketball over again, and Wang Xiucheng took another ten seconds to prepare before shooting...
With a thud, the basketball slammed against the rim again.
Even the location is the same as last time.
Seeing that Ben Sullivan was about to attack him again, Wang Xiucheng lowered his head, turned around, and walked directly to the bench.
I'm not even warming up yet!
Ben Sullivan could only smile wryly as he watched Wang Xiucheng throwing a tantrum.
Swish!
A basketball swished through the net, and Ben Sullivan looked up to see Choi Young-seok.
In recent games, Choi Young-seok has rarely had playing time in regular time due to Thomas's presence.
So sometimes Choi Young-seok would play some games for the Long Island Nets, a team in the G League.
Choi Young-seok, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying running between the two places.
Sullivan then looked at Wang Xiucheng, the player and owner.
It's actually quite difficult to get along with people who have a dual identity.
We can't be as harsh as we are with other ordinary players, nor can we be as overly official as we are with management.
Fortunately, Wang Xiucheng himself didn't put on airs and treated Roy Ivy and Wang Xiucheng the same, which made the work of the coaches much easier.
Of course, Wang Xiucheng was always absent from training, and no one knew what he was busy with all day.
Fortunately, given Wang Xiucheng's status as the boss, no one showed any dissatisfaction.
After glancing at the time, Ben Sullivan clapped his hands, calling everyone back to the bench to begin final preparations.
"Welcome everyone to join us for this match early on Lunar New Year's Eve."
In the Penguin Live room, which was decorated with the same festive atmosphere as the Spring Festival, Wang Meng began his work for the day.
"The game started quickly. There were no surprises in the starting lineup. The Nets still had Wang Xiucheng, Westbrook, Dillon, Durant, and Towns."
"The Mavericks' lineup consists of Doncic, Irving, Kleber, Derrick Jones, and Josh Green."
"In addition, the Mavericks' rookie Lifeley is out due to injury, which will cause some problems for the Mavericks' interior defense."
"Today, on Lunar New Year's Eve, besides myself, there are also Coach Yang Yi and Sister Na watching the game with everyone."
Yang Yi greeted Meina.
Then Wang Meng said directly: "For the Nets, all the games during the Spring Festival are tough, especially today's game against the Mavericks."
"Whether the Nets' Big Three are stronger or the Mavericks' dual stars are better, let's wait and see."
"In addition, one of the referees assigned to this game by the league today is a female referee, Gladys."
Wang Meng's voice carried a hint of amusement, "Alright, after the commercial break, we'll hand the scene over to the competition venue."
Barclays Center.
There were still many celebrities at the game today. In addition to the usual few, Sylvester Stallone brought his daughters to the Barclays Center again.
Perhaps it was what Wang Xiucheng had said to him last time that made him frequently appear at Wang Xiucheng's competitions, as if reminding Wang Xiucheng not to forget his words.
Two of the three referees from tonight's game went to the two benches and whispered something to Udoka and Kidd respectively.
Wang Xiucheng and Doncic were immediately called over by their head coach, who looked completely bewildered.
Then, the fans at the stadium noticed that the players from both sides had entered the field.
The players standing in the center circle, ready to contest the ball, were not Towns or Kleber.
Instead, it was Wang Xiucheng and Doncic!
Moreover, the referee standing next to the two with a basketball, ready to throw the ball, was actually Gladys!
The fans in the stadium went wild instantly!
The story of Gracie, Wang Xiucheng, and Doncic is known to all fans in the league.
Wang Xiucheng and Doncic are the only two players who can flirt with Gladys and still get away unscathed.
No matter who the other player is, if they make even the slightly inappropriate joke to Glassie, they will receive a technical foul.
Of course, players of James Curry's caliber have pride and didn't try it, unlike Wang Xiucheng and Doncic who are shameless.
"Haha, I love this scene, and I'm sure the fans watching on TV will love it too." O'Neal laughed and slapped the table in the broadcast booth. "The NBA is an entertainment league, no doubt about it."
The fans in the stadium started clapping and cheering, and some even blew whistles.
Glacy shook her head helplessly.
There was no other way; today is the Chinese New Year, and the Alliance Office, for the sake of Chinese viewership ratings, was willing to abandon all pretense and create this kind of program effect.
She herself doesn't really care; her current fame in China is already comparable to that of some NBA players.
He was even invited to participate in a basketball program in China during his vacation last year, where he explained the NBA game rules to fans.
Of course, the labor costs were considerable.
It should be said that it is quite remarkable.
Gracie took two steps forward and came to Wang Xiucheng and Doncic.
Seeing the two men's smiling faces, Gracie wished she could throw the ball in their faces.
"Throw it this way..."
"Throw it this way..."
Wang Xiucheng and Doncic looked at the basketball in Gladys's hand and started muttering to themselves.
Gracie pretended not to hear, nodded to her two colleagues, and then tossed the basketball high into the air.
With a snap, the basketball was undoubtedly slapped by Wang Xiucheng, who had better jumping ability and speed.
In fact, Doncic didn't jump at all; he knew that even if he jumped with all his might, he wouldn't be able to touch the ball.
Westbrook received the ball and dribbled it up the court.
Westbrook knew what everyone wanted to see, so he didn't come himself, but waited for Wang Xiucheng to come over and then passed the ball to Wang Xiucheng.
Wang Xiucheng used Westbrook's screen to get into the paint, and Towns pushed and shoved Kleber out of bounds.
Wang Xiucheng took a step and leaped high into the air!
With a loud thud, Wang Xiucheng completed a one-handed slam dunk!
He gently jumped off the rim, and the Nets scored the first point of the night.
Kleber pointed to his waist at the referee outside the baseline, seemingly complaining that Towns's action was too aggressive.
However, the referee clearly ignored him.
This is the Spring Festival! Could there be a better way to start the game with Wang Xiucheng's powerful dunk?
Kleber picked up the basketball and saw Wang Xiucheng and Doncic standing together, so he passed the ball to Irving.
Irving dribbled the ball across half-court, and Doncic shoved Wang Xiucheng, took a step back, and created space to receive the ball from Irving.
Then Doncic used his rhythm and body to get inside past Wang Xiucheng and passed the ball to Irving on the perimeter.
Irving took a step to the side, creating some distance between himself and Westbrook, and then quickly launched a three-pointer.
Swish!
The Mavericks' first basket went in!
Irving clenched his fist and gave Doncic a high five.
He was extremely familiar with this arena, even more so than with the Mavericks' home arena, the Airline Center.
But everything has changed.
The fans at the stadium didn't seem to have any negative feelings towards Irving. Although some people booed him a few times at first, their boos were quickly drowned out by applause.
While Kyrie Irving was the source of the Big Three's breakup, he cannot be entirely blamed for this.
To put it another way, since Irving ultimately got Wang Xiucheng in return, Irving didn't owe the Nets anything.
If we have to say who owes whom, it's probably Harden and Durant.
