Chapter 84 The smell of gunpowder(1/2)
This game against the Jazz in early December was a away game.
So, the Warriors who left Detroit had to go to the Utah Plateau immediately.
The night after leaving Detroit, Lin Xing in the hotel turned on the TV and switched to the channel that was broadcasting the weather forecast.
Lin Xing likes to look at the weather forecast very much, not because the host of the weather forecast is very beautiful.
Instead, away games always have to cross the United States.
Every time you arrive at a place, the climate and temperature will vary greatly.
Just like this time, the away game of Salt Lake City in Utah Plateau-
"Damn it, minus 20℃? This is to freeze someone to death!"
After all, it is the city to host the Winter Olympics in the future, and the temperature at minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius is too normal.
A certain king who was greatly influenced by the version has tweeted and complained about the coldness of Salt Lake City.
“wooo~!”
Before the person arrived, Lin Xing couldn't help but shivered.
Then he turned around and asked Mulin who was in the same room as him.
"Chris, have you brought a thickened cotton jacket with velvet?"
Mulin looked like a fuss when he saw Lin Xing like this, and he smiled:
"If you stay in this league for a long enough time, you should get used to bringing enough clothes for the whole year before every guest trip."
“All seasons?”
Lin Xing was surprised. Is it so exaggerated? It’s still all year round?
"That's right, it's all year round. The temperature in Salt Lake City tomorrow will be minus 20℃, right? But at this time, the temperature in Miami will most likely be more than 10℃."
It's more than 10℃, so it's time to wear spring and autumn clothes. Lin Xing thought so, and Mulin said that this is not over:
"What's even more exaggerated is that Phoenix, located in the heart of the desert, is likely to rise at 20℃!"
When you go up 20℃, you have to wear summer clothes.
"So, except for those separate away games, even away schedules, you have to bring clothes for the whole year."
"What if I didn't bring it?"
"Generally speaking, the team's special plane will have some spare cotton jackets, and you can borrow one."
With Mulin's words, Lin Xing breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the bed safely, waiting to set out in Salt Lake City tomorrow.
But Lin Xing missed a little bit—
There is indeed a bunch of spare cotton jackets on the special plane, but it does not have his code.
There is Xiao Chong's cotton jacket, which is prepared for the team staff.
Lin Xing can't wear this size at all.
There is also the cotton jacket of Longli, and the staff believe that the NBA is full of giants like Longli.
Lin Xing can wear this size, but if you wear it, the headlines of the next day will definitely be-
"Pictures of life before the game, the tyrant's funny clothes."
After thinking about it, Lin Xing refused the staff's proposal to "take a large size to keep warm, no one can laugh at me" and turned around and left without being warm.
He is willing to transform into a triple pair, dress and dress, etc., so let it go...
...
In this way, the Warriors flew from Detroit to Salt Lake City.
As soon as I got off the plane, the cold wave came. Although I was wearing a cotton jacket, Lin Xing was really not thick enough and shivered from the cold.
He was about to rush towards the Warriors' bus, but halfway through, he was stopped by a group of fanatical reporters.
Since Lin Xing's comeback, as long as it is a Warriors' game, there will be a bunch of inappropriate reporters on the sidelines.
Why do they say they are not serious?
Although they played serious basketball games on the court, what they wanted to watch was a sport with more fierce adrenaline.
But obviously, these games after Lin Xing’s comeback have disappointed them.
In a fight against the Lakers, the second-rate players of the Lakers even struggled to play basketball, let alone fight.
Regarding the Nuggets, Lin Xing was hated by the African mountain, and the African mountain also shook his finger at Lin Xing.
But after the game, the two of them communicated in a friendly manner and fought? I really can't fight!
For the 76ers, Ledel had a bit of an old grudge with Lin Xing, but he kept avoiding Lin Xing throughout the game.
For fear of meeting Lin Xing, Lin Xing settled his old debts for him.
In the game against the Pistons, the most inappropriate reporters went there.
They wanted to see what kind of sparks Lin Xing could create when he faced the Bad Kids Legion.
But as a result, the Bad Children's Legion proved with practical actions that times have changed and they have grown old.
In this way, in the four games after Lin Xing's comeback, he not only did not play a single game, but he even did not even have a slight stadium conflict.
It was like, seven games before, the tyrant who picked four in the Auckland Stadium, the Demon God.
Once the game is suspended, he becomes a good boy.
This disappointed this group of unfair reporters. In order to see an MMA battle on the basketball court, they gradually turned the NBA pre-match interview into the MMA pre-match interview.
The same is true before this vs. Jazz regular season.
At the airport, the group of reporters who stopped Lin Xing and raised ridiculous questions one by one.
"Star, Karl Malone will be your opponent in this game. Do you know he is an elbow master?"
"Like Carl Malone uses elbows to you, will you fight back against Stera?"
"Everyone is saying that although you beat Charles Oakley and Anthony Mason, many people in the NBA are afraid of you, but Carl Malone is not on this list. Do you think about this?"
“…”
Faced with this inappropriate problem one by one, Lin Xing spread his hands and quickly left.
It’s not that he refused to answer, it’s really too cold.
If I really have to answer one by one, I am afraid that Lin Xing will be taken to the crematorium to thaw on the spot.
But the reporters didn't think so. Lin Xing hurriedly left and even took action when he left.
At this time, silence is better than sound. Doesn’t this mean that he despises Ma Long?
I despise it to the point where I was reluctant to answer these very nutritious questions.
So, on the other side—
Carl Malone, who appeared in the training hall before the game, was stopped by reporters and he was in a bad mood.
Because recently, a woman named Gloria Bell has been threatening him:
If she doesn't pay a hundred thousand dollars in child support, she will announce her relationship with her son and Malone.
Ma Long, who was afraid of this, has been worried about this for a while.
However, the reporter stopped him for an interview, but he did not refuse.
He knew that at this time, he had to deal with the reporters so that in the future, he could ensure that public opinion would not attack him one-sidedly.
"Carl, do you know your opponent in the next game, the tyrant Stalin, who is known as the tyrant, made a move when he talked about you, expressing his disdain for you?"
When he heard this, Ma Long frowned. Is this crazy person named Stalin?
He has never heard of Lin Xing’s legends.
The best rookie in history far away, Malone, who was the No. 13 rookie in 1985, was not intimate about it.
Anyway, no matter how you rank the best rookie in history, you can't rank him.
The one-on-four knocked down Charles Oakley and Anthony Mason, Malone paid attention.
Mainly Oakley is the same class as him and is as fierce as him.
But at that time, Ma Long was paying attention to this matter with a gloating attitude.
He didn't expect that Lin Xing would stand opposite the Jazz and him with the Warrior who came to challenge him so soon.
"Disdain? I can only say, young people, don't be too arrogant. If you come out and make a fortune, you will have to pay it back sooner or later!"
This time, Ma Long seemed to be angry, and the reporter who interviewed him also lit up, and then went further:
"Will you teach him a lesson with your elbow?"
But Ma Long suddenly returned to normal, pretended to be innocent and shook his head:
"Eel? I never use that thing..."
To be continued...
