Chapter 324: Missed due to injury

California, Anaheim, 28 miles from Los Angeles, there is an NBA team here called the Clippers!
On the evening of April 1, the Clippers will face the Philadelphia 76ers, the number one player in the league, at the Honda Center Arena at home.
The Clippers have not beaten the 76ers for more than four consecutive years. They lost seven games in a row. The last time they won the 76ers was in 1994.
7 losing streak! Although the Clippers are used to losing, they are very happy to wipe out some shameful records.
But, where are the Clippers' opponents for the 76ers?
It's better to lie down and let someone kill you.
Lose a lot this year, and grab another champion this summer!
The Clippers management believes that the next champion will definitely not miss it!
However, there was media coverage before the game.
"Philadelphia Gemini is out due to injury!"
"Allen Iverson has a sore shoulder and will miss the game against the Clippers."
"The calf muscles are sore. China Li will not play against the Clippers today."
"Even without the Philadelphia Gemini, the Clippers can't win!"
...
Before the game started, Clippers head coach Chris Ford received a call.
"Chris, this game can be won, Michael will take a 30+10!"
Toot toot~
The call came suddenly, and I was caught off guard.
On the phone, the head coach Chris Ford muttered to himself:
"Can you win? Michael scored 30+10? Boss, isn't your tone too relaxed? We are the last in the league? Do the 76ers say that they win? And, Michael's strength..."
"Even without Li and Allen, we the Clippers can really beat others?"
"Besides, today is April Fool's Day? Boss, are you not afraid that this is someone else's prank?"
Chris Ford shook his head. He had to bow his head under the eaves.
"Oh~~"
"Since the boss is letting go, fight hard."
Before the game, Chris Ford walked into the locker room.
In the locker room, the boys are making a fuss.
Some are singing, some are swaying and dancing to the melody, some are clamoring for MP3,
"Michael, if you don't return the MP3 to me, I want you to look good."
"Murray, I just borrowed it to listen. Are you so stingy?"
Michael Olowokandy is taller, he is playing with the small red MP3 machine with one hand up.
"Asshole!" Murray came directly with a elbow.
"Hiss~~" Olowo Kandi suffered from pain, and even more refused to pay it back, enduring the pain of being beaten a few times, he just wanted to listen to the song. He has been obsessed with this little machine for a long time.
Murray also jumped up awkwardly, and as a result, Olovokandi slipped away.
"Stop, you idiot! Give me back the MP3!" The little Murray rushed to catch up with him.
Seeing Olowokandy having a good time with his teammates, Cross Ford was also embarrassed.
Olowokandi originally studied at Brunel University in the United Kingdom, specializing in athletics and rugby, and later transferred to the University of the Pacific to study. He was only exposed to basketball at the age of 17, and he performed well in college basketball for two years in the United States. Therefore, he was noticed by NBA scouts and considered him a talented center player.
Nowadays, big men like Olajuwon, Karl Malone, and Alonzo Mourning are getting old, while young big men like Kwame Brown, Eddie Curry, Tyson Chandler, etc. The big genius is not yet old. The whole league is looking for suitable substitutes.
And Michael Olowokandy is recognized as the best big man in 1998.
However, no one thought that this guy played well in college.
But when I arrived in the NBA, it suddenly stopped working.
Even many media and fans call him the "parallel importer."
Originally, the Clippers intended to train Olowo Kandi as the next Olajuwon, but the wishful thinking was lost.
"The same genius from Nigeria, why is the gap so big?"
Moreover, not only Olowo Kandi, but also a group of very energetic guys. Isn't it all good before being selected? But why do these people fail when they get to the Clippers? Why are they so weak when they get on the court?
Cross Ford couldn't figure it out, he had many, many questions.
"Is it my problem as a coach?"
Seeing the head coach Cross Ford walk in slowly, he didn't even say a word, so he looked so determined, not knowing what he was doing.
This is not a good sign.
Everyone also slowly quieted down.
"Coach, is this going crazy?"
Everyone is cautious.
After a while, Cross Ford woke up. Seeing everyone looking at him, he was also slightly embarrassed.
"Ahem, um, today we are going to fight the Philadelphia 76ers, are you confident?"
Quiet!
In the huge locker room, no one spoke.
Cross Ford was a little disappointed, these guys are really used to losing, they are afraid of losing.
His eyes condensed, and his tone suddenly became solemn.
"We have lost 7 games to the 76ers in a row. The last time we won the 76ers was 4 years ago. Today, we have to wipe out this shameful defeat for whatever we say!"
Everyone still had nothing to say.
The Clippers played against the 76ers in the past two years. Wasn't that bullied? Especially those two guys, like wolves and tigers, played too fiercely. This time, I will definitely lose again.
Cross Ford could only bring out his boss at this time.
"The boss just spoke. If anyone can't play well today, just wait and sit on the bench."
Sure enough, this trick is very useful.
"Beat them!"
"Beat the 76ers!"
"We will definitely win!"
Although these voices were false, Cross Ford was satisfied.
At this time, he also strikes while the iron is hot.
"I forgot to tell you, Allen and Lee won't play today."
Cross Ford found that when he said this, the eyes of those guys immediately appeared different.
"Oh! We have won this game!"
"Yeah, without those two, the 76ers are nothing at all!"
"Everyone said that our Clippers are big belly, we will prove it to them today!"
Everyone is very excited when you say a word to me.
Cross Ford is very satisfied with the current morale, and his heart is full of pride.
"Okay, very good! Not only do we have to win today, we have to win beautifully!"
"Oh!"
The Clippers raised their arms and shouted.
...
"Now I have the Philadelphia 76ers players, they are Frank King..."
…
The 76ers entered the field one by one ~EbookFREE.me~ When Iverson and Li Nan entered the field, the scene suddenly screamed.
"Wow!"
"Lee! Lee! Lee!"
"Allen! Allen Allen!"
The Clippers players who were ready to enter the tunnel looked at each other.
When the Clippers players entered the field, the cheers received were not as high as those of the visiting team.
"There are seventy thousand people in the stands, aren't there more fans than usual? Why don't the voices be loud?"
"Is this our home court?"
"Heh~ Those two guys are also wearing training uniforms. Didn't the coach say that they are not playing? Why are they still?"
The game hasn't started yet, and some people panic when they don't know what's going on.
