Basketball: The Chosen Victim

Chapter 154 Don't think about the people on the shore when you get on the boat, and don't mention the things on the boat when you get off the boat, babies have worked hard!
With the conclusion of this battle of focus, the Cavaliers successfully dismounted the Celtics and climbed to third place in the Eastern Conference!

But the impact of this game is far from over.

In addition to the gossip that Pierce lost his luxury yacht to Wu Di and caused a wave of heated discussions, the regular season MVP rankings also ushered in a major update that night!
Overnight, Wu Di's name appeared on the MVP ranking list and broke into the top five!
After all, the Cavaliers' record has reached the third place in the Eastern Conference. As the head star of the Cavaliers, Wu Di is definitely qualified to compete for the MVP.

But the problem is that Wu Di is still a rookie player!

It is not unprecedented in NBA history that a rookie player is elected MVP, but there are only a handful of them, only two.

One is "Basketball Emperor" Chamberlain, and the other is "Bone Crusher" Wes Unseld.

However, these two are stars of ancient times. After the millennium, there has never been a rookie who has entered the MVP rankings.

Even the so-called 03 Platinum Generation's many talents, none of them entered this list in their rookie season.

The Cavaliers fans cheered for this, but the fans of other teams overturned the vinegar bottle!

Especially when Wu Di overwhelmed Wade, Durant, Howard, Nowitzki, Duncan, Anthony and other super giants and ranked fourth!
Behind each of these super giants, there are thousands of diehard fans, but the No. 1 in their minds is surpassed by Wu Di, a rookie player from China...

How can this be tolerated?

You must know that the regular season MVP ranking list is the most valuable list in the middle of the season!
And this list not only considers the data of the stars, but also comprehensively considers multiple factors such as the dominance of the stars, the team record, and the team's contribution. Even off-court factors such as reputation and word-of-mouth will be taken into consideration.

It's fine for Wu Di to lead the rookie village list like the best rookie list. If the MVP list ranks so high, it's too contemptuous of those superstars who have been famous for many years!

In addition, there is another very important reason, that is, this award can only be awarded to one person in the end, and most stars can only get one ranking.

Many fans will compete with each other in the circle of friends according to the ranking of their stars.

Wu Di entered this list when he was a rookie, and he ranks higher than so many stars. It is really a big deal for the league to poke a hornet's nest.

His black fans on the Internet grew exponentially in an instant.

Countless people began to question the rationality of this list, questioning that the league deliberately favored Wu Di with resources:

"Last season, the Cavaliers ranked first in the league in regular season record. Now they are only third in the Eastern Conference. Both record and ranking have dropped. Wu Di can still enter the MVP list?"

"That's right, what a bullshit! Besides, Wu Di has missed so many games during the season. Now that he has played 60 games, it's a hurdle. He can still make it into the top five. The league doesn't want any shame!"

"Wu Di also scores higher. His rebounds and assists are relatively mediocre, and he makes more mistakes. He is just a steroid who was fed by the Cavaliers Twin Towers in turn. It is doubtful that the rookie list surpassed Griffin's 20+10. Running to the MVP list, is there a darker story than this?"

And this undoubtedly touched the backs of Di fans:

"The league has banned Wu Di's signature tricks, do you call this tilting resources?"

"Average of 35+ per game, average of less than 5 free throws, do you call this tilting resources?"

"Are you a disgusting person who uses rankings to say that things are not pure? This season, the four main players of the Cavaliers have left. At the beginning of the season, the probability of mocking 75% was the last. Now Wu Di not only made it to the playoffs, but also rose to the third place. , actually began to use last season's record to beat Wu Di, really double standards..."

The two groups of people were arguing, and there was a tendency to gradually expand.

The stars ahead of Wu Di are No.3 Kobe, No.2 Rose, and No.1 James.

I won’t talk about Kobe and Rose. Although Lao Zhan’s ranking is number one, many people can’t understand it. Although the Heat’s record is the first in the league, and Lao Zhan also got close to triple-double data, Lao Zhan betrayed his hometown. Huantuan, isn't it just a joke to rank first?
At this time, Jamie went out collectively again:
"Other rankings are different, the number one is absolutely deserved, the data is top, the record is top, the character is top, LeBron is firmly No.1 in the league!"

"That's right, leading the team with a winning rate of more than 80%, surpassing the No.2 Spurs' 74% and approaching 10%. This result can't even rank first on the MVP list. That's a big deal!"

"Little blacks, don't rubbish our Zhan Huang's traffic anymore, it makes me sick! Isn't it the MVP? Our Zhan Huang has won the MVP in a row, and we will win the MVP three times in a row this season! Break all doubts with the results, this is Big Zhan The emperor's creed!"

"In the middle of the season, the league canceled the 012 rule against Zhan Huang, but Zhan Huang still strengthened the entire league with his own strength, and scored 28+8+8 dominant data. Haven't the sunspots seen his progress? "

"I haven't watched Jordan play. James is my god. Watching James keep improving his footsteps and shooting every day, life also has motivation. I won't allow you to black him like this again!"

……

The outside world is full of quarrels because of the MVP rankings, but the Cavaliers players are very busy because of sailing back to Cleveland.

In the early morning of March 3th, when it was still daylight, Wu Di took a group of teammates to Boles Wharf.

Before arriving at berth 34, their eyes were already attracted by the nearly 30-meter-long and 7-meter-wide yacht Truth.

There is no way not to be attracted, the extremely elegant modern design and sense of movement make her different from all the yachts around her, once the smooth and sexy appearance lines are unveiled, they set off unprecedented waves in their hearts.

Turn the hatch of the cockpit with a key, and the hidden LED lights are activated step by step, first illuminating the two steps on the ship, and then illuminating various areas on the ship.

Truth presents an atmosphere that is both dynamic and mysterious and romantic in an instant.

"Wow, this is purely a sea villa with unlimited vision!"

"It's amazing, this cockpit is bigger than my living room!"

"Oh my gosh, I can't wait to start it!"

The cockpit of the Veritas can no longer be called a cockpit. In addition to the two comfortable driving seats at the front porthole, there is a living room, a bar, a dining room, and even an LCD TV and a PS 3 game console at the back.

The Italian Modernist interior looks pleasing to the eye and touches with luxurious materials, and Pierce clearly spent a lot of money.

The area of ​​the entire main deck must be at least 150 square meters, and there are comfortable sofas and lounge chairs everywhere. There is ample space for 15 NBA burly guys to hold a party!

There is also a smaller unsheltered flybridge deck above the main deck. Feeling the refreshing sea breeze and the warm sunrise, the fatigue caused by yesterday's game was instantly swept away!

There is also a lower deck below, where four suites are arranged for rest.

It is simply a villa on the sea that can move quickly!

After checking that there was no problem with the yacht, 15 people began to divide the work and cooperate. Those with a boat certificate made sailing plans and checked the status of the yacht.

Speaking of fuel, this "Ferrari at sea" is really not built. It is equipped with two MTU M96L 2600 horsepower engines and consumes 2500 liters of fuel per [-] kilometers!
Yes, you read that right, the fuel consumption per 2500 kilometers is [-] liters!
This figure can be regarded as an oil tiger level in the yachting circle.

In contrast, a typical 30-meter-long yacht consumes about 1500 liters of fuel per 20 kilometers, but the cruising speed of an ordinary yacht reaches 30 knots, and the cruising speed of the Truth reaches [-] knots. Improvement is inevitable.

Fortunately, the fuel capacity of the Truth has reached 9500 liters, and it is enough to run 380 kilometers once it is filled up.

Marine diesel oil costs 0.7 US dollars per liter in the United States, and it costs 6650 US dollars to refuel at offshore gas stations.

But this is still a small cost. Buying champagne, cigars, ingredients, and inviting yacht babies are the most expensive things, but they are all made by teammates. Wu Di doesn't know how much they spent.

Wu Di is taking a boat license test. The boat license does not require on-site study. It can be simply understood as a collection of subjects 1 and 4 of the domestic driver's license test. The purely theoretical test is still online.

There are several people here who already have a boat certificate. Wu Di doesn't even need to look for the question bank, just click to start the exam, and he passed the exam and issued a certificate in one morning.

After doing all this, Wu Di always felt that there was something wrong with it, and he realized it only when he saw the American flag on the mast of the yacht.

This number of truth belongs to him, and there must be some mark that belongs to him.

So I made a special trip to Chinatown in Boston and bought a few Chinese flags to put on.

The feeling came in an instant!

Then set sail towards the blue Atlantic Ocean!
The first battle, no, I was wrong, the first stop, New York!

We must realize this freedom of navigation for him today!

Otherwise, I'm sorry for the name of this ship!
In the evening, after refueling at an offshore gas station, the group finally drove the yacht to New York.

A group of high-drinking players didn't think it was a big deal, they all wore Chinese national flags and shouted at the Statue of Liberty!
And also ordered "My Chinese Heart" with the yacht's sound system!
Wu Di can only say that it is not without reason that this group of people became crazy and made terrorists afraid.

Entering the broad Hudson River, just in time for the famous EZOO electronic music festival to be staged in Randall Park in New York on the bank, the boat could hear it clearly, and everyone stopped to dance on the deck.

"Wow, that yacht is so beautiful!"

The handsome men and women at the music festival all said with envy when they saw the Veritas gracefully moored on the Hudson River.

"It's great to have a yacht, and you can listen to the electronic music festival without buying a ticket!"

"Yeah, there's no need to squeeze around, and Bar..."

"The life of the rich is exciting!"

"I'm envious..."

However, everyone on the yacht decided to leave after listening for a while for free. The reason is simple:
"This song is not good, it is far from "My Heart of China"!"

So, "My Heart of China", "Descendants of the Dragon", "Serving the Country with Loyalty", "Start Again", and "True Heroes" began.

……

The yacht sailed along the Hudson River to Albany, New York, then turned around and headed west into the Erie Canal.

To say that the Erie Canal is also a historic river that changed the fate of the United States.

The United States did not plan to dig this canal at first, because the Great Lakes themselves have outlets to the sea, and the navigation conditions are quite good, so they can directly do business with European porridge.

In addition, the poor in the United States at that time were even poorer than the Qing Dynasty, so the canal project was slandered as "Klindun's Ditch". Klindun was the governor of New York State at that time, and Ditch means that ditch.

But the problem is that the mouth of the Great Lakes is in Canada.

The United States, as Ying Jiang, liked to make troubles since he was a child. In 1812, he declared war on the then empire on which the sun never sets. As a result, he was quickly attacked by the Canadian British army directly to Washington, and even burned the White House.

The White House used to be gray, but it was burnt black, and the eagle sauce was painted white with white paint, so it was renamed the White House.

The history is really unbearable, Ying Jiang never thought that he would still have this day.

As for the outlets of the Great Lakes, Daiying is directly closed to the United States, and merchant ships come and detain one.

At that time, trains were not yet popular, and Ying Jiang, which had no access to the sea, could only be transported by land, but the cost of land transportation was more than a hundred times that of shipping. Ying Jiang's products suddenly lost their price advantage, and the business could not be done.

Therefore, Ying Jiang could only mobilize the power of the whole country to dig this "Klindun's ditch".

This ditch eventually successfully connected cities such as Chicago, Detroit, and Cleveland on the Great Lakes with New York Harbor, and the United States was able to export grain and rough-processed industrial products from the hinterland to European porridge.

Because of this, New York has skyrocketed, and its population has exploded. It soon left behind Boston, Philadelphia and other cities that were originally inferior to itself, and became the leading metropolis in the United States.

And later developed Wall Street, and began to do things more sinister.

Taking a yacht to cross this canal, Wu Di was quite emotional. It is not reliable to take Ying to do things, so why did Ying Jiang leave a sigh of relief.

If he had the chance to travel back to the era of Red Dead Redemption, he would absolutely have to put this blue star patch on.

Let's talk, let's talk, don't make fun of the big brother's raising his head.

On the morning of March 3th, the group returned to Cleveland. As the boss of the team, Wu Di kindly sealed a red envelope of 6 dollars to each of the dozen yacht babies on behalf of the crowd, as travel expenses back to Boston:
"Don't think about the people on the shore when you get on the boat, and don't mention the things on the boat when you get off the boat. Thank you for your hard work!"

Yacht babies said they didn't want to get off the boat.

After this voyage, Wu Di inexplicably felt that the tacit understanding of his teammates had improved a lot, and even the tactics were executed more smoothly, and the effect felt better than the three-day training.

At home against the Mavericks that night, Wu Di decided to give up the game strategically, but the Cavaliers easily won the game 99-113!

It made Wu Di think about whether it would be better to go to Miami on a yacht to fight the Heat later.

However, during the video analysis after the game, Wu Di and Scott quickly found the real reason. Their magic ball system restrained the Mavericks' zone defense very much!
Wu Di couldn't help shaking his mind. Others don't know, but as a reborn person, he knows very well——

This is a calf!

This year's championship!

In this way, isn't the Cavaliers' last door to the championship already open to them?

He seemed to see the badge of innocence beckoning to him kindly!

The entire Cavaliers seemed to have heard his voice, overcoming obstacles all the way, winning consecutive victories, meeting gods and killing gods, meeting Buddhas...

The good times didn't last long. On March 3, the Cavaliers challenged the Spurs away.

Shifu Duncan put up an iron bucket again, leading the GDP combination to 97-106, and defeated the Cavaliers who had won 13 consecutive victories at home.

Misfortunes never come singly. On March 3, the Cavaliers challenged the Heat away and lost again with 21-110...

Just when the outside world thought that this young Cavaliers team would sink for a while, on March 3, the Cavaliers played against the Magic at home. 23-49 big score to win!
21 points in a single quarter, wouldn't it be more than 84 points in four quarters?
Kobe, who is far away in Los Angeles, said that he has read Do not Q.

Howard felt bitter. Whenever the morale of the Cavaliers was low, his magic had to be pulled out as a stepping stone...

They are all teasing Wu Di for eating, sleeping, and playing World of Warcraft, but who knows about Warcraft babies?

In fact, Wu Di really didn't mean that. Although the Cavaliers lost the match between the Cavaliers and the Heat, his mentality was still stable.

After all, he still has a trump card specially reserved for Riley, which is useless, just wait for the playoffs!
