NBA: Goat is actually me

Chapter 47 Barkley smashes the locker room!
In the middle of the second quarter, Meng Jin came on the court again.

Meng Jin kept a clear head and did not get carried away by his outstanding performance in the first quarter. His shooting choices were very reasonable.

这一节他依旧高效，3投2中拿下4分2篮板1盖帽。

In the last minute of the first half, Meng Jin also gave Roy Hinson a head-on block.

Roy Hinson was beaten so hard that his head was dizzy. He didn't expect that he would be taught a lesson by a rookie.

But Barkley next to him was even angrier than him. The team used the No. 1 pick to trade for this thing?
The 76ers traded the No. pick for Roy Hinson last year in order to improve the team's immediate combat effectiveness. As a result, this guy's immediate combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the No. pick Doughty.

Dougherty was able to score 15+8 in his rookie season.

At the end of the first half, the Bulls and 76ers were tied at 58-51.

Although the 76ers fell behind in the first half, the disadvantage was not big and they were still able to play overall.

Entering the second half, the situation was completely different.

Jordan scored 8 points in the third quarter by shooting from inside and outside.

Barkley was not to be outdone and responded strongly to Jordan with consecutive singles in the interior.

A few minutes later, Meng Jin came on the court again, and he and Jordan began to take turns attacking the 76ers' inside line.

Paxson also got into good form, hitting two three-pointers in the third quarter.

Oakley also fought for the offensive rebound and scored a tough goal under the basket.

Barkley was still efficient. After scoring 12 points in the fourth quarter, he looked up at the scoreboard.

Oh shit!

How come we are 15 points behind!

Where is my helper?

This score difference remained until the second half of the final quarter.

With three minutes left in the game, 76ers head coach Matt Guaukas waved his hand.

Come on down, boys, the game is over, don't waste any more time.

巴克利下场后怒摔毛巾，他这场比赛18投12中，轰下35分11篮板7助攻4抢断的超级数据。

I have done my best.

At the end of the game, the Chicago Bulls defeated the 114ers 95-76 at home and got off to a good start.

乔丹正常发挥，全场25中15拿到36分5篮板3助攻。

Cyrus had 14 points and 4 rebounds.

Paxson had 9 points and 7 assists.

Oakley had 12 points and 17 rebounds. Although he failed to limit Barkley on the defensive end, Oakley did a good job in protecting the rebounds.

孟进14投10中，罚球4中2，拿到22分11篮板2盖帽1抢。

People always fantasize about the story of a small person's counterattack, but obviously such a plot is not suitable for Meng Jin, who scored 20+10 in the first game of his career.

"Perfect debut stats, very, very perfect debut stats. Meng's performance exceeded everyone's expectations," Hubie Brown commented after the game.

"Not only the statistics, Meng is also the player who impressed me the most on both teams tonight. I announce that he will receive today's Tommy Award," said Tommy Heinsohn.

This is Tommy Heinsohn's commentary style. In each game, he will select a player who he thinks performed the best, and then give the award to this player with his mouth.

"Not Michael? He scored 36 points tonight?" Hubie Brown asked.

"No, no, Michael performed very well, but he didn't surprise me. Meng opened my eyes and left a deep impression on me. Maybe when I go home at night I will dream about him dunking over Barkley with both hands." Tommy Heinsohn laughed.

Hubie Brown pretended to exclaim: "OH! Poor Charles!"

The two commentators teased Barkley to their heart's content. They had no ill intentions, as it was part of their job.

What was Barkley doing at this time?

"boom!"

"boom!"

"Bang!"

Barkley was venting his childish temper in the locker room.

"Michael what helper? What helper am I?"

"Shit! Shit!" Barkley's performance tonight was perfect, impeccable both in terms of statistics and shooting percentage.

After such a perfect performance, the team lost by nearly 20 points.

This was unacceptable to Barkley.

A complex emotion of anger mixed with powerlessness arose in his heart.

All these emotions broke out after Barkley returned to the locker room!

Barkley couldn't understand why Jordan was so lucky, and why Oakley, Paxson and even the rookie who just played a game were so strong.

Look at the bunch of rotten fish and shrimp around you.

Center Tim McCormick played 24 minutes and scored 4 points and 2 rebounds.

That's right, a starting center got 2 rebounds.

Power forward Roy Hinson had 6 points and 8 rebounds.

Is this the big guy the team got in exchange for the No. 1 pick?
The feeling Roy Hinson gave people all night was just two words: weak legs.

Barkley didn't know what this guy did last night. He only knew that if there were no legal constraints, he would have wanted to shoot him to death.

David Wingate's stats tonight were 17 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds. At first glance, this transcript is good, but then look at the shooting percentage, 24 of 8.
With so many shots, people who don’t know him would think he is the absolute core of the 76ers!

首发控卫奇克斯全场13中5拿到14分2篮板1助攻，就这已经是巴克利身边最得力的帮手了。

After this analysis, I suddenly understood why Barkley angrily smashed the locker room after the game.

It was a different story on the Bulls side.

We won our first victory with a big score and everyone was in a good mood.

In the locker room, everyone was pushing and joking with each other.

"Wow! Look! Our all-star players are here!"

John Paxson teased as he saw Meng Jin walking in from the locker room door.

"Meng, good job." Gilmore acted like an older brother, sitting there and high-fiving Meng Jin.

Although Gilmore played badly in this game, he is an absolute Bulls legend and no one in the entire locker room disrespects him.

Jordan laughed at the side: "This rookie just dunked on Charles Barkley! You really should watch the video and see Charles' expression!"

After simply saying hello to his teammates, Meng Jin immediately went to the shower room.

The dressing room had a great atmosphere but it smelled terrible.

One can imagine how excited these men with raging hormones felt after such a thrilling game.

At best it smells like a wild animal, at worst it's like farting in a stinky sock.

Grant followed Meng Jin into the bathroom.

"Horace, take it slow and steady, and your future will be fine."

Meng Jin did not forget to encourage Grant while taking a shower.

Grant played for 13 minutes tonight and got 3 points and 1 rebound. He was a complete nobody.

He was feeling a little disappointed at first, but he suddenly regained his spirits after hearing his brother's comfort.

That’s right, take it slow and steady, there are 82 regular season games in a season!

Grant believes that one day he will be able to match Meng Jin's numbers tonight.

Just when Grant was feeling full of confidence, he inadvertently turned his head to look at Meng Jin who was taking a shower next to him.

Grant frowned.

Turn your head slowly.

Then he looked down at his little brother.

Grant suddenly realized that the biggest gap between him and Meng Jin was not their performance on the court!

Grant fell silent for a moment.

You can work hard on other aspects, but not this one.

After all, hardware problems cannot be changed by hard work.
