Chapter 173
Chapter 173
The improvement that Mullin brought to the Warriors is not just as simple as 1+1=2.
He has brought a huge improvement to the Warriors in terms of starting point, offensive point, and lineup depth.
In the month when Mullin was absent, the Warriors' games were often very anxious, and there were very few big wins over their opponents.
Fortunately, with Mullin's return, the Warriors are finally on the right track again.
After defeating the Trail Blazers, the Warriors took another day off. On the 20th, they went to Sacramento to face the Kings. On the 21st, they went to Denver to face the Nuggets.
I have to say that it is really difficult to beat the Nuggets on the Denver Plateau.
Especially the Warriors are still the second back-to-back away game.
The day before, in Sacramento, the Kings resisted until the last moment before they made a key mid-range shot from Mullin to seal the victory. In the end, the Warriors defeated the Kings 123:114 with difficulty.
Although they won the Kings, the Warriors used their lives. Five of their starting players played more than 35 minutes.
With no time to rest, the Warriors had to face the Nuggets again with altitude sickness.
Mullin, who dreamed of breaking Denver last time, played well again in this game. He made 16 of 12 shots and scored 29 points, which can be regarded as a proof for himself.
It's a pity that the team finally lost to the Nuggets 112:129.
This is not over yet, with just one day off, the Warriors have to go to Utah again to challenge the Jazz.
In the cold Utah, the Warriors encountered Waterloo again, losing 110:123 to the Jazz.
In this game, the main contributor to the Jazz's victory was not Karl Malone or Stockton, but Darnell Griffiths who came off the bench.
This guy's body is quite powerful, regardless of his height of 193cm, but his maximum jumping height can reach an astonishing 122cm, what kind of concept is this, Jordan is only 116cm.
It's just that the 20+ points in four consecutive seasons were terminated last season. The reason was naturally injuries, which directly caused him to miss the entire 85-86 season.
There is no way, these jumping men throw themselves in the air all day long, if you don't suffer injuries, who will suffer injuries?
As a result, he returned from injury this season, but his scoring average fell off a cliff. Not only did he score a career-low 15 points, but he also failed to keep his starting position.
However, even if he suffered a serious injury, his style of play is still very strong. The typical style of remembering to eat and not remember to play is not enough. With this style of play, he was able to make him vote for the Western Conference All-Stars. Tenth place in the West.
You know, no one else in the Jazz has as many votes as Griffith. You say he is a substitute, how annoying!
But in this game, this nasty Griffith made 19 of 14 shots and scored a Jazz team-high 9 points in just 25 minutes of playing time.
In addition, a total of 5 players from the Jazz scored in double figures, and 12 players played, all of whom scored.
This kind of comprehensiveness can no longer fully blossom, allowing Li Weisi's 28 points and 8 assists to successfully join the empty cut group.
I have to say that after entering the second half of January, the good days of the Warriors are gone forever. Don’t think that this 4 days and 3 away games are already abnormal. Will experience the next 4 days and 3 games.
In short, if you don't beat the Warriors to death, let the Warriors rank the game to death.
Finally ushered in a three-day holiday, but Li Weisi didn't have the slightest rest.
On this day, although he got up early, he unexpectedly didn't go to the arena, but waited at the door of his house.
In just 2 minutes, the familiar Mercedes-Benz G stopped in front of Li Weisi.
Li Weisi sat up directly.
"Aha..." Frank in the cab yawned and said weakly, "Morning!"
Seeing Frank's appearance, Li Weisi, who was about to put on his seat belt, suddenly stopped, opened the door and got out of the car.
"What's the situation? What are you doing?" Frank wondered.
"What time did you go to bed last night?" Li Weisi asked solemnly.
"It's 12 o'clock! What's wrong?" Frank rolled his eyes and casually reported a number.
"No, you definitely fell asleep after 2 o'clock!"
"No, why do you care what time I go to bed? If we don't start, it will be too late." Frank said anxiously.
"No, you can't drive, you're fatigued driving!" Li Weisi said resolutely.
"Then what should we do? Are you driving?"
Hearing Frank's words, Li Weisi ignored Frank, closed the car door and ran back.
"Damn!" Frank suddenly lost all sleepiness, so he could only get out of the car and look for Li Weisi, "It's just a mess, what are you going to do?"
About 40 minutes later, Li Weisi's dilapidated Chevrolet drove in.
When Li Weiguo got off the car, he happened to meet Li Weisi and Frank who came out together.Li Weisi had a calm expression, while Frank looked hopeless.
"What... what's wrong?" Li Weiguo felt that something was wrong.
"It's okay, let's drive!" Frank said angrily, and then got into the co-pilot of his car.
However, as soon as he got in the car, he realized that something was wrong. Looking at Li Weisi's "resentful" eyes outside the car, he quickly got out of the car and sat in the back seat.
Poor Frank's fat body, it's really exhausting after such an operation.
After the three got into the car, the car was finally ready to start this time. Li Weiguo, who was already a veteran driver, drove away from Li Weisi's mother's house smoothly.
Collapsing in the back seat, the bored Frank suddenly asked, "For the country, is your uncle starting to prepare lunch now?"
Li Weiguo looked ahead, and said quickly: "Yes, I bought good vegetables early in the morning and ate the noodles."
"I know, seeing off the dumpling and Jiefeng noodles, today, it's time to eat noodles!" Frank laughed.
"Hey, Frank, do you even know this? You really deserve to be a Huaxia Tong." Li Weiguo looked shocked, because even he didn't know this particularity, a white-skinned and big-nosed American, but it was really shocking. .
"Of course, I'm not bragging, just everyone here, one counts as one, who can understand Huaxia better than me? Your uncle can't compare." Frank said confidently.
"Eating dumplings to see off is good luck.
Dumplings have stuffing, which is said to mean "having a stomach". A person has to deal with many emergencies when he goes out alone. Having a stomach means having a heart and wisdom.
In addition, dumplings also have the meaning of "whole and complete", implying the earnest expectations and best wishes of relatives, so sending off dumplings is of far-reaching significance. At this time, Li Weisi, who was sitting in the co-pilot, suddenly babbled for a long time, which directly confused Frank.
"What did you say?"
"What I mean is that your knowledge of Huaxia may not be as good as mine!" Li Weisi said loudly.
Seeing the competitive Li Weisi, Frank rolled his eyes and thought to himself: Good guy, I have to fight for the victory, why do I have nothing to say?
