Chapter 127 This melon is a little sweet(1/2)
In the Oracle Arena, the fans did not leave immediately.
They were very dissatisfied with the result of this game.
Warriors fans did not expect that Ellis' return would not improve the team's strength, but would instead hinder it.
When the two stars of the Warriors are targeted for defense, as the team leader, he should take the lead.
But Ellis' performance at critical moments made Warriors fans extremely disappointed.
Instead of helping the team win, this guy actually had side effects.
Fans suddenly felt as if Ellis was dispensable.
They feel that Sun Yi and Curry are the future of the Warriors.
It can be said that Ellis's poor performance virtually made Sun Yi and Curry gain a wave of fans.
Because Ellis, the "Jade", is in front, it overshadows the performance of the Warriors' twin stars.
Under Iguodala's strict defense, Sun Yi's data declined and he was unable to perform as brilliantly as before.
In the 35 minutes he played, he scored 15 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 blocks.
If it weren't for Ellis's random hit, Sun Yi might have another triple-double.
Curry's performance was ordinary and could be considered a normal performance.
After Ellis came back, he was robbed of the ball a lot, and he was targeted on defense, so he did not produce good data.
Curry played 30 minutes in this game and only had 8 shooting opportunities. He scored 14 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.
For a rookie, this kind of data is already pretty good, and it is data obtained under the opponent's defense, and there is no water in it.
As for the small public lift, Ellis showed some crotch stretching and became the "Best Sixth Man" of the Numbers Team.
Although he got good data, his shooting percentage was very poor.
In the 40 minutes he played, he made 8 of 22 shots, including 1 of 6 three-pointers and all 6 free throws. He scored 23 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
On the other side, the most outstanding player of the Numbers Team is Lou Williams.
In the 30 minutes he played, he scored 21 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists.
Iguodala, the boss of the Digital Team, devoted all his energy to defending Sun Yi, and his statistics were quite satisfactory.
In the 42 minutes he played, he scored 14 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals.
After the game, Iguodala stepped forward to shake hands with Sun Yi and express his gratitude.
"Boy, you guarded me badly tonight. Look at these bruises, they were all caused by you." Iguodala deliberately lifted his jersey and said jokingly.
"Andre, I've already shown mercy. Look at what you pinched for me. Older ones are still hotter than old ones!"
Sun Yi knew that Iguodala meant no harm, so he replied with the same teasing tone.
"Hahaha, kid, you really like me. Next time I come to Philadelphia, I'll treat you to a big fruit plate."
After hearing this, Sun Yi suddenly had such an idea in his mind.
Is this fruit plate serious?
Afterwards, Sun Yi exchanged a few words with Iguodala, exchanged phone numbers, and walked towards the player tunnel.
When Sun Yi walked to the sidelines, reporters from the media swarmed in and surrounded him.
"Sun, your data has declined in recent games. Is there a problem with your status?"
"I feel that my condition is very good and there are no problems. It is very normal for the data to decline in a short period of time. No player can perform at a high level all the time." Sun Yi answered truthfully.
"Before this game, the Warriors had won three consecutive games and were gaining momentum, but they lost the game after Ellis came back. Does this mean that the Warriors are a better team without Ellis?
?”
After hearing this, Sun Yi frowned slightly.
The reporter who asked this question is trying to sow discord!
"I don't think so. This is just a game. Monta is the core of the team and an indispensable part of the team. And Monta has just returned from injury. I think he will rebound strongly next."
Sun Yi said everything on his mind, very openly and without hiding anything.
Although Ellis played a bit alone in this game, the Warriors' strength is indeed greatly reduced without this guy.
When Sun Yi and Curry are targeted for defense, there must be an offensive strong point, and this is none other than Ellis.
"But there was no Ellis in the previous games. The Warriors played like a team team and were still able to win. However, after Ellis came back, he added some unnecessary singles, which led to the loss of this game. How do you do that?
What do you think of this matter?"
This reporter was also a fool. He didn't ask for the answer he wanted, and he didn't know how to restrain himself. He kept asking questions.
"The loss in this game is not the fault of one player, it's just that our overall performance was not good. I believe that after adjustments, we will play even better."
After Sun Yi finished answering, he pushed through the crowd and walked towards the locker room.
After returning to the locker room, Sun Yi noticed that the previous harmonious and harmonious atmosphere in the locker room was gone.
The other Warriors players sat in silence in front of their lockers, with various thoughts on their minds.
Seeing this, Sun Yi was too sensible to say hello and went back to his locker to pack his things.
Not long after, Nelson and his coaching team pushed in through the door, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
Old Nelson saw the expressions on the players' faces and knew what these guys were thinking at this time.
So, he instilled some chicken soup for the soul to get the players back on their feet.
After hearing Nelson's words, the Warriors players gradually regained their fighting spirit.
Seeing this, Nelson nodded with satisfaction and continued his post-game summary.
After finishing the post-game summary, Nelson sent the players to take a shower, and specifically stopped Ellis and asked him to go to the head coach's office after taking a shower.
No third person knows the contents of the exchange between Nelson and Ellis that night.
But after that night, Ellis changed a lot and gradually integrated into the Warriors' new system.
…
Early the next morning, after Sun Yi washed up, he ate breakfast and started reading some newspapers on the table.
This time he found that the content in the newspaper was somewhat different, and he saw a black draft about him.
"A flash in the pan? Sun Yi's performance has been ups and downs, or he may encounter the rookie wall again!"
"No key ball ability! Take stock of Sun Yi's poor performance at critical moments in recent games."
"Evans surpassed Sun Yi to reach the top of the best rookie rankings!"
…
After Sun Yi read the newspaper, he smiled, which did not affect his mood.
These media reporters are just outsiders. He realizes this deeply and it is not worth getting angry.
After breakfast, Sun Yi tidied up, then went out to meet Curry and drove to the arena.
After arriving at the arena, Curry angrily reported to Sun Yi.
"Those media reporters really bullied us and put us both in a bad light. It's really irritating!"
"Stephen, these guys are just wallflowers. They report on whatever topic is hot. There's no need to get angry with them." Sun Yi replied calmly.
"Sun, I don't have a good temper like you. I hold a grudge. I wrote down these reporters who slandered us in my notebook, waiting to slap them in the face."
After Curry finished speaking, he looked at Sun Yi as if he was begging for praise.
Sun Yi was speechless when he saw this situation.
This primary school student’s behavior is a bit inappropriate!
"Stephen, you are really a genius. This is a good idea. Remember to copy a list for me." Sun Yi suppressed the embarrassment in his heart and said with a smile.
"No problem." Curry smiled and nodded.
After arriving in the locker room, Sun Yi and Curry changed into their training clothes and walked towards the training ground to complete today's daily training.
