Chapter 118 - Season 03



[Squeak...squeak...squeak...]

[Error...Error...Error...]

[Editing failed...]

[Beep...]

Wei Guo's words, "Stop," seemed to have crashed the system.

But it doesn't matter anyway. If the coach cards are really canceled, Wei Guo will be the one who suffers. Wei Guo still wants to collect all the skill packs of those legendary coaches.

"System, are you still there?"

[...]

"System, are you still there?"

[...]

"System, are you still there?"

[...]

Oh no, Barbie Q is dead... Wei Guo slapped his thigh. This system must be from the last century, right? It even crashes.

......

The Rockets did not play on the first day of the regular season.

However, the 76ers have a game...

Wei Guo received an invitation from the 76ers before the game, hoping he could attend because they would be presenting the championship rings.

Wei Guo and Cummings arrived at the competition venue together.

The atmosphere both inside and outside the stadium was excellent; not a single extremist fan burned a national team jersey. The banners they held all read:

Welcome home!

Thank you, Weiguo!

Philadelphia will always be your home!

Philadelphia Hero!

(All the banners above are in English)

When Wei Guo arrived, the fans chanted 'mVp' to express their gratitude to him.

......

This is Iverson's first championship ring.

Many players couldn't help but shed tears when they put on their championship rings.

Things have changed, people have changed...

The roster that won the championship this summer is less than half of what it was after Wei Guo decided to leave. Cummings went to the Rockets with Wei Guo, Mutombo went to the Nets, and even Harpring and Coleman will not be able to play in the first game of the regular season.

The team that won the championship last season only had Allen Iverson and Ed Snow left in their starting lineup.

Tonight they face the Magic, with Hill returning from injury to form a Magic duo with McGrady.

Starting lineup for this match:

76ers: Snow, Iverson, McLoach, Van Horn, McGee

Magic: Armstrong, Hill, McGrady, Horrys, Burke

Weiguo and Cummings watched the game from the sidelines; this was their first time participating in a 76ers game as outsiders.

"Beep!!!"

The match began with the referee's whistle.

The Magic got the ball first. McGrady received a pass from his teammate, faked out Van Horn, drove to the basket, and made a layup, putting the ball in the hoop.

2-0!!!

"The league today... has four great shooting guards."

Wei Guo said to Cummings, "McGrady, Kobe, Carter, Iverson... these four players each have their own offensive strengths, but they all have exceptional scoring abilities."

"I know all that."

Cummings asked, "So, Wei, who do you think is the strongest among these four?"

"I am the strongest."

Wei Guo smiled and gave his answer.

Cummings, “…”

What you said makes so much sense, I really can't refute it.

Wei Guo added, "Old Mu and I have left, and Coleman isn't here either. The only hope for winning this game is Iverson."

Damn it... watching my former teammates fight on the court while I can't play is really painful."

Cummings suddenly felt like he had met a kindred spirit.

Wei Guo is absolutely right. Last season, he felt that way most of the time, seeing his teammates fighting on the court while he couldn't play. You know... whenever he was on the court, the 76ers' winning percentage was 100%, something even Wei Guo couldn't do.

......

Brown kept glancing at Wei Guo, and he himself seemed quite uncomfortable with it.

Several times, Brown couldn't help but want to call a timeout and bring Weiguo back on.

19:13!!

Seven minutes into the first quarter, the 76ers were already down by six points.

Brown called a timeout, and Iverson returned to the sidelines. Wei Guo said, "Allen, you need to attack more and carry this team!"

And then there's Van Horn. We're not close, but we've played against each other before. The Magic don't have a power center.

You have a significant advantage inside, so don't hesitate to take a shot when you have the chance!

He only gave a brief explanation; saying too much would be overshadowing the main event. After all, Wei Guo had already joined the Rockets and was returning to the court. Wei Guo was just a guest, albeit a more distinguished one, and the fans were more enthusiastic about him.

......

The timeout has ended, and the 76ers are on offense.

Iverson drove to the basket, but his layup attempt missed.

Van Horn grabbed the offensive rebound, took a step forward, jumped, and launched a high-arcing shot.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went through the net cleanly.

19:15!!

This attack was launched with great determination.

Wei Guo told Cummings, "Iverson can draw most of the defense, which makes it easier for other players to score."

To put it bluntly...

Last season's 76ers were invincible, but Iverson and Weiguo both made some sacrifices.

After Wei Guo left, Iverson once again carried the team on his own, and could fully unleash his offensive capabilities, making the competition for the scoring leaderboard this season extremely fierce.

Then, McGrady hit a pull-up jumper from beyond the three-point line!

......

This was a duel between two top scorers, and the score was very close in the first half.

Hill has just returned from injury, and he is not in great form. He has not taken up a lot of shot attempts. However, Hill was once called the "successor to Jordan". Not only is his scoring ability strong, but his playmaking and defense are also quite good.

The game went all the way into the fourth quarter.

Led by McGrady and Hill, the Magic went on a mini-run.

77:89!!

The 76ers are down by 12 points.

There are 6 minutes and 39 seconds left in the game.

Iverson bit his lip; this game was absolutely crucial, they couldn't afford to lose!

Wei Guo was sitting on the sidelines. If they can't even beat the Magic, does that mean the 76ers aren't a strong team without Wei Guo?

Superstars are all arrogant!

Iverson dribbled past McGrady with a crossover step, then brought the ball together with both hands and drove towards the basket.

Burke lunged forward, pressing down with both hands to try and block Iverson's layup. The two collided violently in mid-air, and Iverson twisted his body to throw the ball toward the basket.

"Rolling around~~~"

The basketball circled the rim seven or eight times before finally falling into it.

"Beep!!!"

The referee blew his whistle and called a defensive foul on Bock.

As Iverson stepped to the free-throw line, he glanced at Wei Guo sitting on the sidelines. Wei Guo was gradually changing the league.

The first change is...

Players who used to enjoy playing during the offseason were secretly training, such as Shaquille O'Neal, Allen Iverson, and Kobe Bryant... They all wanted to defeat Wei Guo.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Iverson dribbled the ball a few times, looked up at the basket, and released the shot.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went into the net.
