I am Really an Insider

The Pacers defeated the Suns, the No. 1 team in the Western Conference, which was indeed beyond most people's expectations.

In the eyes of many people, even if the Pacers, who are not doing well recently, can win, it will definitely be a narrow victory.

As everyone knows, they were stunned that the Suns, who averaged 110 points per game, couldn't even score 90 points.

After the game, Artest said in an interview in the locker room: "In front of a team with the best defensive player, any offense is in vain."

Although Artest's words were extremely pretentious, he did guard Richardson badly enough.

But the next day, the headlines of major newspapers in Indianapolis had nothing to do with Artest.

"New PG+PF combination! Seattle model reappears in Indianapolis!"

"Payton 12+8, Wayne 20+9, the Pacers are reborn."

"The new player made a perfect debut, and Wayne scored 20+ points in a row for the first time in his career."

Gangtai looked at the front pages of every newspaper in his hand. However, it was either Payton or Wayne, or Wayne or Payton + Wayne.

Finally, after reading all 11 newspapers he bought, he gave up.

"Without me, there really is no me!" Artest is unwilling to give in. Is this how you treat the best defensive player?

In fact, Indiana fans have not forgotten Artest's contribution to the victory yesterday.

No, in the tofu block box in the lower right corner of the second page of "Incheng Sports News", Artest's heroic performance on the defensive end yesterday was described in less than 100 words.

Artest regrets that. If he hadn't been so timid at the Palace of Auburn Hills that day, his status in the team wouldn't have improved so quickly.

Forget it, this locker room leader's status is recognized anyway. The last game was just a chance to give the younger guys a chance to perform.

As for me, I just do my own thing well and hide my merit and fame.

Where can you find such a leader?

In an instant, Artest felt that his strength was rising.

"Hey, here comes Wayne!" At this time, Wayne opened the door and walked into the locker room, and Tai immediately greeted him with a smile.

Well, he doesn't have the airs of a locker room leader at all, but he is really a leader who is close to the people.

"Morning, Ron, why are you earlier than me today?" Wayne glanced at Artest warily, this guy wouldn't secretly put a bunch of weird things in his locker again!

Wayne thought it would be inappropriate to leave the box of sports protective equipment in the locker room from last time, so he moved it back home a few days ago.

I was too lazy to clean it up after I got back, so I put it in the living room.

As a result, the two of them spent five awkward seconds during Aunt Jenny's last visit.

Wayne explained for a long time before finally making it clear that he was not doing business in this area.

It also ensures that no multi-person sports gatherings will be organized during the lockdown period.

A last-ditch effort to convince Jenny that this box of stuff was a debut gift from his teammates

"What day did I not come early? Who is the most talented player on the Pacers? It's you. But who is the hardest-working player? It's me!"

Artai was right in his words. In fact, he came so early because he wanted to buy all the newspapers in advance. If he's in the headlines, he'll put a copy in front of all his teammates' lockers.

A low-key reminder of who the real core of the Pacers is.

"Hey, okay, okay, it's okay if I cough when I hear what you say." Wayne waved his hand and opened the locker and took a look at it warily. After finding that everything was normal, he sat down and prepared to change clothes.

Then, Wayne was stared at by Artest for 10 seconds.

"What happened to you? You broke up with the beautiful tennis girl? Or did you make her a bastard, a scumbag? She is only 17 years old! If you do this, I, as a senior, must condemn you. At the very least, you have to wait until you are 18. "Artest frowned when he saw Wayne coming today, and the little theater in his head became active again.

"You know what I'm thinking Ron, I'm wondering if you would still talk so much if I kissed your forehead with my elbow."

"Hahahahaha, you are so funny." Artest smiled awkwardly and moved his buttocks to keep a safe distance from Wayne.

At this time, Wayne took out the schedule and looked at it, frowning even more tightly.

"Oh, right. In the next game, our opponent is the Charlotte Bobcats. I understand, you must want to compete with No. 2 Okafor, but you are afraid that you can't beat him, right?

Indeed, during the suspension period, he seems to have overtaken you in the rookie rankings. "

Artest touched his chin, I am indeed a master of logic.

So what are you waiting for? This is an opportunity to regain Wei War God!

Think about it, when Wayne surrenders to me wholeheartedly, how can that little thief still dare to say that he is the leader of the locker room?

Bullshit captain, I’m robbing him of the captain!

"Wei!" Artest then sternly patted Wayne on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I will do my best to help you in the next game! Together, we can take back your position as the best rookie!"

Wayne looked at Artest, his expression softened a lot: "Really?"

"Is there still a lie?" Artest said and patted his chest hard.

"Ahem, so what? Isn't it easy to beat the Bobcats? If I make more breakthroughs and pass the ball to you, things will be settled."

Wayne nodded, Artest finally said something human.

In fact, Wayne is not afraid of beating the Bobcats, nor is he afraid of not being able to beat Okafor.

The reason why Wayne frowned when he came in today was because he received a new task as soon as he got up today.

"Task: Competition for Rookie of the Year 1.

Mission goal: interrupt Emeka Okafor's record of 14 consecutive double-doubles.

Mission reward: Badge upgrade essence (500 points). "

Well, as soon as this mission came out, Wayne became worried.

Because he really didn't notice that Okafor was so tough.

They have scored double-doubles in 14 consecutive games.

Madan is such a happy person in Charlotte.

Anyway, no one cares about whether you can win the game, just grind hard every day.

Wayne couldn't help but think that if he was on a bad team where he could take shots at will, he wouldn't be able to take off.

Thinking about it this way, in Wayne's previous life, KD was basically in a state of casual play and casual play in the SuperSonics.

In his rookie season, he averaged 17.1 shots per game. Even if his three-point shooting percentage was only 28.8%, he could still shoot as much as he wanted.

Wayne now directly doubted whether this guy had a system exactly like his own. But because he brushed it too hard, his ability value increased very quickly.

This damn guy must be kidnapped and investigated!

Looking at Okafor's data, the league's No. 1 player who just defeated him suddenly doesn't look good.

Hey, forget it. How could I, the mighty Chinese God of War, tolerate such low-level fun as brushing up on data?

If I can’t brush it up, then no one else can even try!

Wayne couldn't remember how long Okafor's consecutive double-double record lasted in history. Anyway, in the next game, Wayne would do his best to ruin Okafor's good deeds.

Uh, why do you feel more and more like an evil villain?

No, no, no, it's all for the mission, the mission.

It doesn't matter what the Rookie of the Year award is, it's mainly about completing the mission, really.

During afternoon training, Wayne became extra motivated.

Also playing vigorously is Gangtai, who is bound to make Wayne burst into tears in the next game!

At night, many TV stations were already playing ads for the Pacers VS Bobcats.

It stands to reason that the appeal of a game between a team like the Pacers and a bad team like the Bobcats should be very limited.

But because of the presence of Wayne and Okafor, this game has become a much-anticipated game.

T.N.T TV station also started to make things happen. Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley respectively selected the best rookie candidates in their minds.

Lord Barker chose Wayne, while Smith chose Okafor.

Don't care whether this choice comes from the heart or whether the TV station asked them to choose it. In short, it just needs to be a gimmick.

"Wei? I thought you would choose Dwight Howard."

Kenny Smith was a little surprised when he saw Barkley's choice, "Do you really think he can win the Rookie of the Year award despite being suspended for 15 games?"

"Is there anything strange about this? He is very strong!" Buckley spread his hands.

What's the problem with selecting Chinese players? Is that donkey’s ass not kissed enough?

"Well, Wayne is indeed very strong, there is no doubt about it. But Emeka Okafor, he has scored a double-double in 14 consecutive games, 14 games. Do you know what this concept is? Michael Jordan The record for consecutive double-doubles is only 15 games."

"If Michael Jordan were a center, his record of consecutive double-doubles would be more than 15 games. It makes no sense to compare him like this. Wayne basically has the upper hand in battles with top power forwards. This is a fact. "

Garnett, Rasheed and Stoudemire said that was not the case.

On the TV, Barkley and Kenny Smith were having a lively quarrel.

The program's effectiveness is combined, and its ratings remain high.

Okafor watched the TV, but got caught up in the drama.

"Wayne can't beat me!" the second overall pick shouted in his heart.

This season, because Howard has not fully adapted to the NBA game. Therefore, Okafor is basically the strongest rookie and has not left.

Unexpectedly, a No. 12 Wayne came out.

It was only while Wayne was suspended that Okafor regained his No. 1 spot on the rookie list.

Now, you are going to ask me to give up my seat as soon as you come back?

Do you really think you are Brother Wei?

The next game is not just about Rookie of the Year for Okafor.

The MOP in college and the NCAA championship were all gone because of Wayne.

His beautiful youth was shadowed because of Wayne.

So in the next game, he must win back a victory!

Paul expressed his praise!

Beat, must beat hard!

Wei Shen is all bluffing.

Anyway, it’s not me, Paul, who fights on his own, so what should I be afraid of?

Just like that, on December 29, Wayne came to the Bobcat Arena in Charlotte with the team.

That's right, the home court of the Bobcats is the only arena in the NBA directly named after the team.

Because this new arena has just been built, it was specially prepared for the Bobcats. Therefore, since we have not yet found a title sponsor for the arena, we will just call it the Charlotte Bobcats Arena.

It wouldn't be until 2008 that it would be renamed the Time Warner Center that fans are very familiar with.

Although this game is known as the battle of the best rookies, when Wayne entered the court

"The attendance rate is too low." Wayne looked around the stands. The attendance rate was estimated to be only about 60%.

Why do I suddenly feel unmotivated?

Looking at the Bobcats' starting five, except for Okafor and Gerald Wallace, Wayne didn't recognize any of them.

this

Okafor, on the other hand, showed that he wanted to fight Wayne to the bitter end.

On the Pacers side, everyone was very relaxed, as if the next step was just a warm-up match.

Wayne felt that Okafor seemed to be too optimistic about this game.
