“Tread!”

Davis, Rondo and others rushed up to stop Cousins.

There was only one game off the court, and if an angry Cousins missed to hit the referee, it would be a big deal, and the Pelicans players quickly surrounded Cousins.

Side.

Ingram pulled Meng Chen up, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of the latter’s mouth, and the scene where Cousins was sent off was the scene he wanted to see.

Or…

It was the result of Meng Chen’s preparation for a long time.

That’s right.

From the beginning, from Meng Chen spraying trash talk to Cousins, forcing Cousins, shaking Cousins, and deliberately shooting behind, etc., it was nothing more than to provoke Cousins.

Georgetown University meritorious coach John Thompson once commented: Cousins is a talented player, but… If he doesn’t control his emotions and personality, it’s hard to survive on the NBA stage.

Yes.

Although Cousins is an All-Star-level center and has very good statistics, he has a rather short temper, often fights with his coach, disagrees with his teammates, is a maverick, and goes his own way.

Meng Chen knew his violent temper, used trash talk, and finally let him set himself on fire.

Trash talk.

This is not a pejorative term.

Passionate stadiums require emotional changes in order for the game to be exciting enough and the charm of competitive sports to fully bloom.

Trash talk is not too much to say is a tactic.

Many great historical superstars such as Joe Gang Master and Kobe Bryant are also masters of trash talk.

Trash talk is too normal compared to bad physical behaviors such as elbow strikes, foot pads, and kicks.

And a great player, in the face of trash talk, if he cannot rationally control his emotions, every time his emotions will get out of control, then such a player, after all, will not appear on the stage of history, can only be unknown for a lifetime.

Cousins has had an emotional riot on the court, not for the first time, but many times.

But no doubt.

Today’s party, Cousins’ impression in Gentry’s heart is definitely greatly reduced again, and it may even fall into a trough.

Because….

This crucial victory for Coach Gentry, who had a chance to win, is now almost out of chance because Cousins was sent off.

Cousins, led by insiders, walked angrily to the locker room.

“Shhhh

The audience left booed and saw Cousins off.

“Beep beep!”

Because Cousins was ejected, Coach Gentry called a timeout to calm the player’s condition.

Lakers bench.

Meng Chen sat on the chair to rest, and Davis and Cousins were so confrontational, even if he already had 75 points of physical strength, he felt a little overwhelmed.

Coach Wharton came over at this time, sat down next to Meng Chen, and said, “Is that why you don’t want to block the demolition?!” ”

“Yes.”

Meng Chen nodded, undeniable.

Wharton was slightly shocked in his heart, and immediately shook his head and smiled: “You really don’t look like a rookie who has just entered the league.” ”

“Coach, is this praising me?!”

Meng Chen blinked, Coach Wharton stared sideways at Meng Chen, with a look of liking in the corner of his eyes, nodded and smiled: “Of course, you will definitely be an excellent player.” ”

I’m really glad to be able to get such a good player when the Lakers are in crisis.

Wharton said inwardly.

“Beep beep!”

Soon the suspension ended.

With 48 seconds left in the second quarter, both sides had an offensive chance, but neither scored, and halftime ended.

Lakers (66) :(60) Pelicans.

The Lakers took a six-point lead and went into halftime.

Throughout the second quarter, Meng Chen suffered from tight bags, resulting in only 6 points in this quarter, which is also related to Meng Chen’s lack of desire to attack and more desire to drive the state of his teammates.

So….

Meng Chen, who had only 6 points in a single quarter, contributed 7 assists, including 4 assists for Ingram.

In the half, Meng Chen scored 23 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.

“Meng Chen can still get such good data when he encounters Davis and Cousins’ tight baggage, Meng Chen, as a rookie, is really too strong.”

Intersessional breaks.

In the rear studio, Amy John couldn’t help but praise Meng Chen again, and Kenny Smith nodded and praised: “Yes, Meng Chen’s performance is too perfect, and there are only a few players who can be beautiful with this rookie.” ”

Section III.

Easy to fight again.

The Pelicans who lost Cousins, Davis alone, it was difficult to limit Meng Chen’s attack, and the Pelicans were all … The army was defeated.

Meng Chen didn’t want to continue wasting time.

Another 17 points fell in a single quarter, helping the Lakers lead the Pelicans by as many as 26 points in the third quarter, and Meng Chen clocked in in the third quarter and also announced that the game was no longer in suspense.

In the fourth quarter, Davis also wanted to lead the Lakers to a rally.

Just….

Driven by Meng Chen, the Lakers players are in good shape, especially Ingram, who was sluggish in the first half, showed a hot hand in the second half, cut 26 points in the whole game, and scored a new single-game scoring high this season, resisting the counterattack of the thick eyebrows.

There was no suspense in this game, and the Lakers finally defeated the Pelicans, ending the Pelicans’ 6-game winning streak while also winning 8 in a row!

And the most valuable player in the game is none other than Meng Chen. Meng Chen, who clocked in in the third quarter, slashed wildly: 40 points, 7 rebounds, 12 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, and it was another full-court performance.

The 40 points per game is also a new career high for Meng Chen.

After the game.

Meng Chen was interviewed by the beautiful reporter, and the beautiful reporter asked: “Mr. Meng Chen, may I ask why you kept choosing to pass to Ingram, who felt bad?!” ”

“Does he feel bad?”

Meng Chen smiled lightly and asked, “Ingram scored 26 points tonight, if he hears it, he may rush over and hit you.” ”

The beautiful reporter smiled, and Meng Chen continued: “In my opinion, those balls I pass are all good balls, whether my teammates can shoot is his problem, I unconditionally believe in my teammates.” ”
