Chapter 23 Old guy, keep your hands clean

There are only the last thirty seconds left before the first quarter.

Coleman stayed on the court throughout the first quarter, but failed to score a point.

It's not that Larry Brown doesn't want to substitute, but that there is really no one to replace. The situation on the court has been crushed. If substitute players with weaker abilities are replaced, the point difference will only be further widened.

In the 76ers' last offensive round of this quarter, Coleman reached out for the ball again.

Iverson is only a sophomore now. Faced with Big Brother's request for the ball, he passed the ball over.

The moment Coleman was about to catch the ball, O'Neill turned sideways and used his long arms to intercept the ball directly.

If it were the beginning of the game, this steal might not be so easy to succeed.

But now that Coleman has played the entire quarter, his physical fitness is at its lowest, and coupled with being suppressed by Camby and O'Brien one after another, he can't concentrate at all.

Seeing that his last offensive opportunity was destroyed, Coleman's long-term alcoholic nerves began to short-circuit.

He directly pushed Xiao Ao's chest next to him.

This action is quite common in the NBA. In fact, most brawls in the NBA start from this action.

Some players are soft-tempered. After being pushed, they will just curse at them and be done with it.

Some players are very tough and may throw their fists immediately.

After Xiao Ao was pushed, he was a little at a loss. After all, he is still just a child.

When he entered the draft, he was the youngest player in NBA history, not even eighteen years old.

He is only nineteen years old now.

Kongbu on the sidelines did not jump up and yell like last time. The reason why he did that last time was because Levi's actions were extremely dangerous.

This time it was a common provocation, and Kongbu believed that the Raptors players on the court could handle it well.

Of course, Kongbu may also be worried about the fine.

Three seconds after Coleman pushed O'Brien, Ben had already sprinted up.

He pulled Xiao Ao behind him, and pushed Coleman directly with a pair of arms as strong as a silverback gorilla.

This push was so powerful that Coleman was pushed backwards and almost fell to the floor.

"Old man, keep your hands clean!"

Ben pointed at Coleman, his eyes were cold and solemn, and he said fiercely.

Wu Sheng and Mashburn also immediately came over and surrounded Coleman with laughter.

"What? You can't beat me in basketball, but you think you can beat me in a fight?"

"I don't mind being suspended for a few more games."

The two looked like little gangsters teasing high school girls, sneering and teasing Coleman.

Coleman's scalp was numb at this moment, and the short-circuited nerves were immediately frightened and returned to normal.

He knew about the brawl that occurred in the Raptors' first game of the new season. A super big guy like Levi was knocked down in less than ten seconds.

How many seconds can my body withstand this? It probably won't even take five seconds.

Especially the ferocious-looking Daben, whose terrifying power made people unable to resist at all, put great pressure on him.

Coleman was stunned for a moment.

But he couldn't give in. After all, his qualifications in the alliance were there, and he was once a proud leader.

This is like the black boss who once dominated the world and was beaten up by two energetic young men while walking. It is impossible to swallow this breath.

In Coleman's eyes, Da Ben or Wu Sheng are such spiritual young men.

"Fight? Are you the only losers with a combined annual salary of less than half of mine?"

Coleman scratched his head and shouted unconvinced, trying his best to regain ground for himself.

What he said was a bit exaggerated, but not outrageous.

For those on the Raptors court, Ben and Wu Sheng both have a base salary of 240,000 US dollars. Ou's situation is better. After all, he is a first-round pick. His annual salary this year is 950,000 US dollars.

Mashburn came to the Raptors on a sign-and-trade basis. His annual salary this year is 3.8 million.

Coleman's annual salary is as high as eight million US dollars!

In terms of salary, these people combined are indeed not as good as Coleman.

It's just that when it comes to competing on the court, it falls into the inferior category.

Daben sneered, "What does this mean? It also proves that you are just a useless old thing who only takes money and does not work?"

"This is the first time I'm warning you, and it's also the last time."

"If you dare to put your dirty paws on Jermaine again, I don't mind letting you taste these fists."

Xiao Ao, who was standing behind Ben, was already trembling. He was not frightened by Coleman, but moved by Ben.

Da Ben, who is only over two meters tall, is almost ten centimeters shorter than Xiao Ao, but his image is extremely tall at this moment.

In his career of more than a year, Xiao Ao has never enjoyed this kind of care.

He is even more convinced that becoming a part of the Raptors will definitely be a turning point in his career.

Playing in such a team, not to mention having ample playing time and shooting opportunities, he is willing to be hidden like the Trail Blazers.

Coleman wanted to continue shouting, but was stopped by Ratliff on the side.

The referee quickly blew the whistle and gave Coleman and Ben a technical foul each.

A push like this would not result in being ejected.

Since both sides received technical fouls, there were no free throws.

Then there are only ten seconds left in the first quarter, the Raptors' offensive round.

Xiao Ou positioned himself in the frontcourt, received a pass from Wu Sheng, turned over again and made a mid-range shot. His touch was still so hot, and he scored another goal on Coleman's head.

"Dudududu!"

After the ball was scored, the referee also blew the whistle to end the first quarter.

Xiao Ou, who had just arrived, only played four minutes, but he had already made five of five shots and scored 10 points in a row.

Kongbu stood on the sidelines to welcome the players off the field.

"Yes, he is becoming more and more like the big brother of the team."

After Da Ben came to his side, Kongbu patted Da Ben on his arm.

After saying this, Ben's face turned red with embarrassment, and he still had the same ferocious look on the field just now.

"You two played well, and you were very impressive on the offensive end. Keep up the good work."

Kongbu praised the two martial saint monster brothers again.

Not to mention, the two brothers' current cooperation is to hang a thermos on their buttocks and have a water bottle.

After counting, it seems that no one in the league is stronger than these two brothers, except for the Qiaopi duo.

The Bucks have a forward and defensive line combination of Big Dog Junzijian. Their offensive firepower is definitely not inferior to that of the Wushou brothers, but their defense is much worse.

As for the Pacers' combination of Miller and left-hand Chris Mullin, Mullin is too old, which reduces the strength of the combination.

Logically speaking, if the two Wushou were taken out alone and played on a weak team, the team might be able to advance to the playoffs immediately.

"Tracy, your defense is good."

Kongbu encouraged McGrady again.

Under McGrady's defense, Iverson had already scored 9 points in the first quarter, which was actually not a few points.

But McGrady did not give Iverson a chance to get to the basket and draw a foul. Only Ben and Camby of the Raptors' inside three committed a foul.

The last one to leave was Xiao Ao, and Kong Bu enthusiastically stepped forward and gave him a big hug.

"My child, it seems that my vision is correct. The pioneers are indeed committing a crime."

"Your performance on the court was perfect."

"But I still hope that next time you can open up and fight."

Kongbu said earnestly.

Xiao Ou's face was startled, and he opened up the ball. He had almost taken over half of the shots in the last four minutes of the first quarter, so how could he open up the ball?

"Coach, they all take good care of me. I already have enough ball rights."

Xiao Ao lowered his head and whispered.

"Huh? When I say open play, it's not just about playing ball."

"In my team, if someone pushes you, you'd better return it on the spot."

"Weakness is probably the only flaw in a player that I can't tolerate."

Kongbu's words were resounding, and Xiao Ao nodded solemnly, remembering every word in his heart.

A new week has begun, brothers are giving away recommendation votes and monthly passes.

In addition, I would like to thank Lao Yang 1979, Dahan, childhood sweethearts, and Dandan’s Sorrow for their rewards.
