There is a saying that "the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked!"
When a team's management is thinking about how to make the team lose, no matter how hard the coach and players try, the result is destined to be a tragedy.
No, it seemed like the Trail Blazers didn't win much in tonight's game, but in fact, they really beat the Magic throughout the entire game, leaving the latter with no chance to even fight back.
Facing a group of losers, Wang Zelin played passionately tonight. At the end of the three quarters, he scored 21 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists. He did not take off any thermal clothing in the final quarter. He sat on the sidelines honestly, waiting for the moment the game whistle blew. .
Fortunately, the presence of Magic No. 5 added a touch of excitement to this numb game, allowing Magic fans to still have fun in the midst of hardship.
"Player: Victor Oladipo
Location: sgpg
Height: 1.93 meters
…
Overall rating: 76”
Not bad, the future bitter mamba.
Wang Zelin recited something in his heart.
The player he is paying attention to at this time is the Magic's No. 5 pick and the second overall pick in this year's draft - Victor Oladipo.
At the same time, he is also the famous Mamba in the future!
From the moment the game started, everyone underestimated Oladipo's desire to win and the indescribable passion that showed throughout his body.
At the beginning of the final quarter, the Magic were 63:88, trailing the Trail Blazers by 25 points. Magic head coach Jacqui Vaughn made the decision on the spot and announced that he would give up the game.
At this time, only Oladipo stood up and said "NO!"
Later, when the audience in the stands saw Oladipo come on the court, the first thought that flashed through their minds was: Increase points?
Yes, it's already garbage time, and Oladipo, who is the starter, is still on the field. What else can he say if he is not preparing to score points?
The habitual thinking made the audience look at Oladipo with contempt and disdain for a while, until the latter showed tireless running time and time again, giving his body to the sky again and again, and scored. Insider foul...
Only then did everyone realize that he really wanted to win!
Finally, the game came to the last three minutes of the countdown. Oladipo faced Connett Lee's defense on the outside, hit a difficult three-pointer, and also caused a foul...
When Oladipo scored another 1 point on the free throw line and successfully hit 4 points, the scoreboard showed, 97:96, that the Magic overtook the Trail Blazers by 1 point.
This is the first time they have overtaken their opponent in this game!
The next second, applause poured from the stands. Magic fans stood up for their players for the first time in this game and cheered crazily...
Then, there is no more
When Coach Terry called a timeout, he replaced the starting five players and played the last three minutes.
After this pause, the outcome is already decided...
The Trail Blazers were like a storm, scoring 11 points in just three minutes, allowing the Magic to score only 2 points at the last minute.
However, after the buzzer that symbolized the end of the game sounded, there was an extremely warm applause from the sidelines. The Magic fans at the scene had the same eyes and locked in one direction:
Standing in the court, Oladipo is wearing the No. 5 jersey.
He gave the fans on the sidelines the hope of the Magic rising again.
After the game, both sides conducted post-game interviews as usual.
Over there with the Magic.
Oladipo sat on the bench and covered his head with a towel. His eyes were already red, but he was still trying hard to hold back the tears.
Seeing this scene, "Big Baby" Glen Davis came over, sat down, patted Oladipo's head, and comforted him with some sadness:
"Victor, raise your head and straighten your back. You have done a good job."
Tonight, Oladipo's performance not only conquered the fans on the sidelines, but also conquered the teammates playing alongside him.
His never-give-up spirit and temperament infected every player.
Seeing this, other Magic players came over one after another to offer words of comfort.
At this time, Magic head coach Jacqui Vaughn also came over and pulled Oladipo up: "Kid, don't be depressed! Look at the audience and listen to the applause. Many people are proud of you. Therefore, you should also be proud of yourself..."
Encouraged, Oladipo finally raised his head, looked around the court, and saw countless pairs of eyes. The fans on the sidelines were indeed applauding him and cheering him on, just as the coach said!
At this moment, Oladipo's depression and unwillingness to lose began to slowly dissipate.
…
The pioneers.
Wang Zelin, who was elected the best player in the game, has finished the interview and is really ready to leave.
Suddenly, he felt something in his heart, stepped across the crowd, and found Oladipo's position.
After walking over, Wang Zelin smiled: "Hey, Victor!"
Oladipo raised his head in surprise and glanced at who was talking to him. The voice was unfamiliar.
At first glance, I didn't expect it to be Wang Zelin.
In tonight's game, this Chinese center completely destroyed his team's interior group.
Don’t hit the smiling person with your hand!
The visitor had a good attitude, and Oladipo replied: "Hello, King!"
Wang Zelin smiled: "Your performance tonight was great. I would like to exchange jerseys with you, is that okay?"
"Ah, exchange jerseys with me?" Oladipo opened his mouth in disbelief.
The guy in front of him is a super rookie that the league is actively promoting. He is far more famous and powerful than himself, but in the end, people want to exchange jerseys with him.
Wang Zelin nodded and replied affirmatively: "That's right!"
Knowing that the next words were a bit rude, Oladipo still couldn't contain his curiosity and asked: "King, can you tell me why? Don't get me wrong, I'm just a little... surprised!"
Wang Zelin said seriously: "Because I have always believed that those who work hard will not be let down! I always feel that people like you will never be buried like those mediocre people."
Oladipo smiled happily after listening to Wang Zelin's sincere words.
"I believe that day will come!"
Afterwards, Oladipo hugged Wang Zelin, slapped Wang Zelin on the back with his hand, and after changing his jersey, he was about to turn around and leave.
"Hey, there's one more thing!"
Wang Zelin's voice came from behind.
"What?"
Oladipo turned around confused.
Wang Zelin suddenly thought: "If you are free in the summer, can we train together?"
"train?"
"That's right, there are a few guys like you, how about it?"
"Remember to call me then!"
…
The scene of Wang Zelin and Oladipo exchanging jerseys was recorded on his camera by many reporters at the scene. After the game, these reporters posted the video on their respective Twitters.
The title is as follows:
The man favored by the king!
