Chapter 8: The match ends, and Kate's heart flutters.
Kidd turned to look at Lauren Holtkamp, forcing himself to calm down.
He remembered what Paul had gone through, so he chose to keep quiet.
He just kept shaking his head to express his protest.
Wang Xiucheng was pulled up by the team, and as he passed Kidd, he saw Kidd's face, which looked like he had eaten shit.
"Kid, how dare you make that free throw?" Kidd covered his mouth, trying to influence Wang Xiucheng.
Wang Xiucheng shook his head with amusement, without replying.
Given his current physical condition, it is indeed impossible for him to complete a poster dunk.
But they still did it because they wanted to know if male referees could be considered "star referees".
The result was good, of course, which made Wang Xiucheng realize that "charm" should be effective for everyone.
Wang Xiucheng went to the free throw line, ready to shoot a free throw.
The two technical fouls were combined into two free throws and possession.
Wang Xiucheng scored a goal.
Rockets serve from the center line.
Wang Xiucheng ran to the backcourt, shook off the defender, and received the ball.
Brock, who was substituted back into the game, defended against Wang Xiucheng this time.
His approach was to keep a slight distance from Wang Xiucheng to prevent Wang Xiucheng from making a breakthrough.
Not using close marking is tantamount to letting Wang Xiucheng cross the halfway line.
After crossing half-court, Wang Xiucheng made a crossover dribble and directly handed the ball to Christopher, who had come to screen for him.
Christopher completely ignored the defender in front of him, and pulled up for a shot even when he was still a step away from the three-point line.
Swish!
The basketball goes hollow into the net.
116:105.
"nice shot."
When Wang Xiucheng heard the voice from the sidelines, he knew that Silas was encouraging Christopher again.
That shot was absolutely illogical.
But they did make it in.
If they continue fighting like this, Christopher will still leave with Silas.
The Mavericks inbounded the ball with little time remaining. With 24 seconds left, Bullock attempted a three-pointer, but it missed.
Garuba grabbed the rebound and immediately passed it to Wang Xiucheng on the outside.
With 30 seconds left, Wang Xiucheng had no intention of running out of time before stopping.
Brock attacked first, so Wang Xiucheng can finish the attack without anyone criticizing him.
Wang Xiucheng received the ball and charged forward, turning and accelerating to instantly get past the defender in front of him.
A few steps later, with a crossover and a behind-the-back dribble, Brock was left behind.
Then a hand grabbed Wang Xiucheng's arm from behind.
beep!
The whistle blew, and Brock raised his hand, admitting the foul.
Brock just shot a three-pointer to try and keep the score in double digits.
Unfortunately, he missed the shot himself. If Wang Xiucheng had made that shot, the score would have been down to 6 points.
Then those substitute players will lose face big time.
Although it will obviously force Wang Xiucheng to take free throws, at least it gives them a chance to keep the score.
Wang Xiucheng looked at the future Rockets player with his outrageous hairstyle and was speechless.
Wang Xiucheng made only one of his two free throws.
The Mavericks grabbed the rebound and then ran down the clock.
The whole game is over.
116:106.
The Mavericks easily defeated the rebuilding Houston Rockets at home.
Jalen Green had a poor shooting night, going 4-for-16 for only 10 points.
致力于成为休斯顿传奇的小波特,10中4拿到13分8助攻,却有高达6次的失误。
只有老戈登发挥稳定,11中7,其中3分球5投3中,拿下了22分。
Doncic, who was off the court, stood up, came onto the court, and greeted Jalen Green and a few others.
After exchanging high-fives with Christopher Garruba and the others, Wang Xiucheng walked toward the players' tunnel.
Doncic stared at Wang Xiucheng's back, but spoke politely to Jalen Green.
"Is shooting your weakness?" Doncic thought to himself.
Wang Xiucheng had four free throw attempts in the last three minutes of the game, but only made two. This is clearly unacceptable for a point guard.
Moreover, Wang Xiucheng did not shoot a single basket.
From Doncic's perspective, Wang Xiucheng's ball-handling skills are absolutely top-notch in the league; he can't even do that kind of speed-changing ball-handling ability.
So he can shoot after dribbling past his opponent whenever he wants.
However, Wang Xiucheng didn't shoot a single shot; he passed the ball the entire time.
What does this mean?
This shows that he has no idea how to shoot.
What puzzled Doncic even more was that even if he couldn't shoot, with such ball-handling skills, he would be more than qualified to be a rotation player on a championship contender.
How could a player like that be unknown?
Doncic had even more questions in his mind.
Kidd also had questions in his mind.
After a friendly handshake with Silas, Kidd hurriedly returned to the locker room.
"Go check on that number 12. I need all his information, everything."
The coach who was assisting with data analysis nodded, then took his phone and left the locker room.
Wang Xiucheng had just entered the players' tunnel when he saw a beautiful woman standing not far away.
It seemed somewhat familiar, but Wang Xiucheng couldn't quite place it for the moment.
"Hello."
Wang Xiucheng, who was about to walk over, heard the beautiful woman calling his name.
"Call me?" Wang Xiucheng pointed to himself and asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Hello, could you please sign your autograph?" The beautiful woman seemed a little nervous, her face slightly flushed.
sign?
Wang Xiucheng was taken aback. Someone actually asked him for an autograph?
"Of course." Taking the black notebook from the beautiful woman, Wang Xiucheng turned to a blank page and asked, "What's your name?"
Wang Xiucheng saw that every page of the book had a signature, although he didn't recognize any of the flamboyant handwriting.
“Dallins, Kate Denlins.”
Kat Dennings' voice trembled slightly, as if she were a little nervous.
She was afraid that Wang Xiucheng didn't know her, and even more afraid that if Wang Xiucheng knew her, he would laugh at her.
Wang Xiucheng paused, slapped his forehead, took a step back, and looked the other person up and down.
“I remember now, Max Black? 2 Broke Girls?” Wang Xiucheng said a little embarrassedly, “You’re prettier than on TV, I didn’t recognize you, sorry.”
Hearing Wang Xiucheng say that, Kat Dennings blushed even more, her big eyes not daring to look at him. "Thank you for liking...my work."
Wang Xiucheng signed his name on the notebook and wrote a special blessing wishing Kat Dennings to become more and more beautiful. Below that, he wrote the date and the location of the signature - the Dallas Mavericks player tunnel.
“Thank you,” Kat Dennings said happily as she accepted the autographed book.
“I’m thanking you. You’re the first person to ask me for an autograph.” Wang Xiucheng smiled, nodded to Kat Dennings, and then walked towards the locker room.
Kat Dennings, clutching her laptop, stared unsteadily at Wang Xiucheng as he walked away. She felt her face burning hot, like a ripe apple.
Her heart was racing, her thoughts were in turmoil, but she wouldn't blink, afraid of missing even a second of this man who had captivated her.
She was no longer a little girl; she even knew she was at least ten years older than this boy, but she simply couldn't control this feeling.
Kat Dennings knew she was doomed!

"I know what you're going to ask: 3 assists, 2 points, 1 rebound, 0 turnovers, plus/minus +6."
"I'd like to know what Silas has that Porter Jr. can get his hands on? 8 assists and 6 turnovers, are you kidding me?"
"Is that number 12 one of our Chinese people? He just came in and only stayed for a minute."
"So handsome, come back to acting, why are you playing basketball? You'll never make the national team anyway."
"To be honest, Wang Xiucheng's ball control skills are undeniable. I hope he doesn't join the national team; he'll be corrupted by it."
"I think you shouldn't be too optimistic. If he were really talented, he wouldn't have been an undrafted player."
"Shut the hell up, where did you come from? Get lost."
