Cummings didn't understand what Wei Guo meant, but he still ran towards the locker room.
The situation in the stadium is becoming somewhat uncontrollable...
Wei Guo walked to the center of the field and simply made a quiet gesture. The stadium instantly fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.
Who is the master of this stadium?
Wei Guo asked loudly.
"It's you!"
The audience responded loudly to Wei Guo.
Who is the master of this stadium?
Wei Guo asked again loudly.
"It's you!"
The audience responded loudly to Wei Guo once again.
Who is the master of this stadium?
"It's you!"
......
Wei Dafa leaned close to his wife's ear and said, "Why does Wei Guo look like he's about to eat someone alive?"
......
The Spurs were stunned by the atmosphere in the arena as overtime began.
The referee felt remorse...
With the Suns' momentum, the Spurs wouldn't be able to win even in overtime. I should have just called a foul on Nesterovic earlier and ended the game sooner.
Why offend the audience? Why offend the Suns? Why offend Weiguo?
The Spurs were on offense, and Parker's layup was blocked by Marion.
Nash got the basketball, and Wei Guo had already run towards the frontcourt. Nash made a long pass, and the basketball came to Wei Guo's hands. When Wei Guo received the ball, he was still three steps away from the three-point line. He pulled up for a jump shot!
"Whoosh!!!"
The basketball went into the net.
115:112!!
The Suns lead by 3 points.
Nesterovic walked to the baseline to inbound the ball. Before Parker could receive the ball, Wei Guo appeared like a ghost and brought it down.
Nesterovic stood under the basket, his face filled with panic.
Wei Guo jumped a step away from him, slamming the ball into the basket over Nesterovic, accompanied by a shout that Nesterovic could understand: "Fuck!!!"
117:112!!
Less than 30 seconds into overtime, the Suns were already leading by 5 points.
The Spurs were completely stunned...
For the next four and a half minutes, even the referees couldn't save the Spurs.
Nash, Johnson, Marion, Stoudemire, Weiguo... they seemed to be venting all the frustration of the entire game in these 5 minutes. 5 minutes... 2 minutes longer than 3 minutes, that's enough!
Whenever the Suns get the ball, they pass it to Wei Guo.
Wei Guo's shots are very decisive. When he receives the ball inside the three-point line, he drives to the basket and dunks. When he receives the ball outside the three-point line, whether it's one, two, or three steps away... he just shoots as soon as he receives the ball!
Popovich couldn't bear to see Duncan and the others humiliated on the court!
He substituted all his starters before overtime was over, but the Suns didn't do that, and their starters played until the last minute.
The audience is also responding to the defense of the country...
This was a release of pent-up emotions that had been building up for a long time. "Extremely satisfying" was not enough to describe the audience's feelings. Every time the Weiguo team made an attack, the audience would shout "MVP".
"Beep!!!"
The five-minute overtime period has finally ended.
133:117!!
The Spurs scored only 5 points in overtime, while Wei Guo scored 21 points alone.
He lost one record, but then set a new one. His 21 points were the highest score in overtime, and this small, insignificant record in Wei Guo's career remained unbroken until many years after his retirement.
......
Match statistics:
Wei Guo: 60 points, 17 rebounds, 12 assists, 5 steals, and 7 blocks
Nash: 21 points, 3 rebounds, 19 assists, 2 steals, 0 blocks
Ginobili: 43 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals, 1 block
Duncan: 19 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 3 blocks
......
Duncan's low scoring was related to Popovich's tactics. It can't be said that he was once again outplayed in his matchup against Wei Guo, because the two had very similar rebound numbers. Ginobili played very well, and the Suns' perimeter defense could hardly contain Ginobili. This player, who entered the league later than Wei Guo, has already made a name for himself.
This would have been a very exciting match if the referee hadn't tried to control it.
After Gentry was woken up by Cummings, he still didn't understand what Wei Guo meant by "Tell Old Gentry I want some soup" before overtime ended and the Suns won the game.
After the game, Wei Guo realized one thing: the Suns being targeted by the league was only just beginning.
Before Wei Guo joined the team, the Suns were a bottom-ranked team in the Western Conference. Although they acquired Nash through a trade, they also lost their star player Marbury. No one thought the Suns would make waves in the league until they were acquired by a mysterious Chinese tycoon and Wei Guo joined the team, which brought them to the league's attention.
But it's merely a matter of valuing...
Wei Guo joined the Nets after the season before last. At that time, the Nets were the top team in the East and had even made it to the Finals. When Wei Guo joined, almost the entire championship team was retained, and strong players such as Mourning, Hill, and Stockton were added. However, with such a lineup, they still lost several games after the start of the regular season.
However, the Suns have been on a winning streak so far, remaining undefeated in the regular season.
Someone felt that the Suns had disrupted the balance of the league, which is not only a sports league but also a business league, and that it was not what this person wanted for the Suns to steal the spotlight.
......
Back in the locker room, Gentry listened to the players recount what had happened in the game.
Gentry was greatly annoyed...
He took the blame upon himself, feeling that the situation was caused by his failure to cook soup for the team.
"Old Jin, this has nothing to do with you."
D'Antoni offered a word of comfort, then complained, "The referee is clearly biased towards San Antonio, and this is our home court!"
Cummings sighed, "Unfortunately, Wei's record of 100% game-winning shot percentage has come to an end."
Hearing this, Lao Jin wanted to slap himself twice. He wanted to find Wei Guo to apologize, but Wei Guo waved his hand gently and told Lao Jin that it had nothing to do with him. He was just a little hungry and wanted to have some soup.
"I'll go make some soup right now!"
Gentry immediately got up and went to the kitchen.
Wei Guo laughed and said, "We're just waiting to have some soup. To hell with the post-game interviews! If the league doesn't give us an explanation for this, we won't even play the next game!"
This isn't just talk; Wei Guo genuinely wants to seek fairness in the competition through this method. He has his father and uncles behind him. If all else fails... he'll just buy the league and clean up this malpractice.
In competitive sports... referees can determine the outcome of a match, but they cannot influence it.
......
Post-match press conference.
In an interview, Popovic stated that from his perspective, he could not see any physical contact between Nesterovic and Weiguo, and he believed in the referee's impartiality.
The Suns are different...
The media reporters waited for a long time, but no one from the Suns appeared.
