Chapter 436 The last three minutes
As soon as the fourth quarter started, Eddie Curry and Eddie Robinson of the Bulls immediately staged an extremely exciting double-player cooperation. In the inside of the 76ers, basketball kept shuttled through the hands of the two. Several players of the 76ers stepped forward to intercept, but they didn't even touch the shadow of the ball.
This cooperation fully demonstrated the strength of the Bulls' core combination. When Eddie Curry easily scored 2 points with a rebound, the Bulls fans naturally gave them a little chance to completely defeat them!" Looking at the goal, referee Scott shouted excitedly.
Seeing that the Bulls had reached the fourth quarter, they were still playing so fiercely, Hank's uneasy expression on his face became even bigger. Now the score on the court has expanded to 20 points, and nearly a minute has passed in the fourth quarter. The situation is very unfavorable to the 76ers. The players seem to have seen failure waving to them.
"Damn it, why didn't Lu Wei play?" Brand, who took the ball, cursed in his heart, but his feet did not stop. He cooperated with Willie Green, quickly dribbled the ball to the opponent's basket, and then a free dunk was also a relief for the 76ers.
However, in the fourth quarter, the 76ers' players were obviously exhausted. From the beginning of the game to now, there have been these five people on the court. Coach Hank did not even make a substitution. He felt helpless. He knew that playing like this would be very unfavorable to the players' health. However, although the 76ers are an old team, the depth of the bench is far from comparable to the Bulls. The players on the court are now the core lineup of the 76ers. In this case, they are more than 20 by their opponents. If they replace a player with a worse level, they don't have to play this game. It's better to admit defeat directly.
Of course, Coach Hank also has Lu Wei to replace, but Lu Wei is different from other players. Coach Hank wants him to play depends on his mood.
In fact, Lu Wei is not arrogant, nor is he arrogant, nor is he a lone hero or a savior. The reason why Lu Wei is still watching the fun is actually considering the 76ers. From the day he promised coach Hank, Lu Wei knew that the 76ers were not a top team. In the NBA, it can only be considered second-rate. Because of this, Lu Wei knew that even if he helped them win the game with his extraordinary ability, it would be just a temporary stopgap. When he left the team, the 76ers were still a first- and second-tier team. In this way, even if he won the game, what's the role?
"It's better to rely on the heaven, the earth, and the ancestors!" Lu Wei thought to himself, and as the score opened little by little, there was still no trace of anxiety in his eyes.
Coach Hank next to him was already anxious as the ant on the hot pan was running towards 30% as the score gap was seen. Lu Wei next to him was still looking like an old god. Sweat had faintly oozed from Coach Hank's forehead.
"Oh, I thought I could compete with the Bulls. I didn't expect this to be the result." Looking at the situation on the court, many players of the 76ers who had hope at the beginning of the game were wilted like eggplants. At this point, they knew in their hearts that there was no hope of turning the tables. More than three minutes left. The score on the court had expanded to 32 points! Looking at the huge electronic timing card on the court, the fans were already desperate. However, they did not mean to blame their team. From this score alone, the fans knew that their heroes had done their best. From the beginning to the end, these five veterans were fighting on the court, and they could score 90 points. Even if they didn't win the game, they were enough to win their respect.
On the other hand, the thousands of Bulls fans were already in their seats, waiting for a while for bald referee Crawford to blew the whistle to the end of the game, and then stood up to cheer.
"Oh. I thought Lu Wei would play. It seemed that he was so happy. He could do it here. It was probably just to come and see the fun. But even if he did, coach wouldn't generously let him wear his team jersey and sit in the player's seat to watch the fun." Although Zhang Li was a little disappointed, Lu Wei did not play in the final. However, he was still a little puzzled when he saw this situation.
"Fight! Even if you lose, you will have to play the momentum of 76 people." Brand, sweating all over his body, had completely soaked his sports vest and shorts. He wiped his face hard and sweated. He thought fiercely.
"Green!" turned around and shouted at Willy Green to the place where he was about to serve. Brand was determined to make another forced layup. Although his physical strength was vaguely exhausted, he still revealed a strong and unyielding belief in his eyes.
"Oh, the 76ers should strengthen their exercise. After playing for a while, they are exhausted. Coach Hank, please be careful. Call me a timeout." Lu Wei sighed, then stood up lazily from the player's seat and gently moved his hands and feet.
"Ah!" Coach Hank heard Lu Wei's words as if he heard a rustle. He thought to himself, my little ancestor. You agree to go on the court. He quickly made a pause gesture to the head coach.
"Yeah? The 76ers called a timeout? What are you doing when you call a timeout?" Zhang Li in the stands thought strangely. However, his eyes swept over Coach Hank and fell on Lu Weidi.
"Is Lu Weita doing a preparation event? Is he going to play?" Zhang Li shook his head again, but then he shook his head.
"What are you doing when you are on the court? You will definitely lose the game. Is he trying to experience the NBA feeling in this garbage time? But even if the 76ers don't care about the win or loss of the game, they won't let Lu Wei play like this." Zhang Li said in confusion.
There are many reporters who have the same idea as Zhang Li, and even the fans of the 76ers can't figure out what Coach Hank is doing at this time. Is he trying to give the players a rest? But even if he recovers some physical strength, what's the use? Can he turn the tables?
When thinking of a comeback, even the fans of the 76ers thought it was just a joke. If they could comeback in such a situation, unless the five players running on the court were Jordan or Johnson, it was obvious that this was just a delusion.
However, just when everyone couldn't figure it out, Coach Hank did something that surprised them even more.
"Yeah? Is it a substitution?" the fans thought in confusion.
Under the instructions of Coach Hank, Lu Wei, wearing the No. 66 jersey, ran to the field easily and replaced Willie Green.
"Oh, Lu, you finally got on the court, but it's a pity that it's a bit late. Play well. Even if you lose, you have to score two more goals to let them see how powerful you are!" Willie Green said unwillingly. Although he had some objections to Lu Wei's appearance so late, his heart was full of thinking that Lu Wei would fall into the Bulls' majesty.
"Don't worry, Green, we won't lose." Lu Wei said with a smile, his tone was so relaxed, but it revealed an unquestionable smell.
"Well? Who is this player? Why haven't you seen him before?" A fan of the 76ers said in surprise.
"Asian? Can you play basketball when he looks so low? Coach Hank is not kidding, right?" said another person.
"I know him. He is from the Curtis Conservatory of Music. He was the one who participated in the Universiade a few days ago!" One of the fans shouted loudly.
"Oh? A student from a music school participating in the Universiade? It's so irritating." The fan who was the first to speak just now covered his forehead and said.
"Tsk, you don't care about other sports news except basketball. This Lu Wei broke three world records and is now awesome!" said the third fan who spoke.
"Really? He can't play basketball."
Seeing Lu Wei on the field, the Bulls fans began to burst into laughter. Although some of them knew Lu Wei, they still felt aroused when they saw that the 76ers actually replaced him.
"Haha, why did the 76ers send a kid to the court? Did he think this is a children's basketball game?" "You can't play basketball if you run fast, go home quickly."
"Are you insulting the great Bulls to send such a player on the court?"
Standing on the court, Lu Wei turned a deaf ear to the mockery and laughter outside the court, and slowly ran to a familiar position.
"Hi, kid, why are you here for the stage? This is not a children's playground!"
"Haha, that's right, go home quickly, I'll knock you away."
I just heard that the 76ers were suspending the timeout, and I thought they had some tricks but didn't use them, but I didn't expect that they would change into such a player. Although there are people who know Lu Wei here, no one takes him seriously. What can a world champion who runs on the NBA arena do? Can you compare to who can run faster?
Listening to the mockery of the Bulls, Lu Wei smiled with angerless look: "Are you just talking nonsense? You can't win the game like this."
Unexpectedly, this Asian spoke fluent English, and his mocking expression made the Bulls players stunned.
"Hmph, are you talking nonsense? It's not up to you. Boy, don't cry if you lose later!" Eddie Curry said contemptuously.
