Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 176 Birthday Night
After defeating the Suns at home, the Warriors rushed to Phoenix overnight to challenge the Suns away.

In this game, the Suns star Larry Nance finally ushered in a comeback, but it was useless and still unable to bring victory to the Suns.

Because the Warriors' bench ushered in a big explosion in this game, to be precise, it was Price and Hornacek, the backcourt partner.

Tonight, the two contributed 20 assists together and became the key to the Warriors' victory.

It is worth mentioning that there is God's will in the dark. In this game in the original time and space, Hornacek played 30 minutes as a substitute for the Suns and scored 6 points and 18 assists.

But now, it broke out again, but this time, it stood on the other side of the court.

In the end, the Warriors beat the Suns 131:104 and retreated from Phoenix.

Since it was New Year's Eve, Li Weisi was in Phoenix and could not return to San Francisco, so after the game, he returned to the hotel and had a phone call with Li Wantang.

The sound of firecrackers came from the phone, making Li Weisi frown when he was on the phone.

very noisy!

Chinatown still has a strong New Year flavor. Whenever Chinese New Year comes, there are lanterns and festoons, dragon and lion dances. It seems that there are more celebrations than in China, but at this time it is only limited to Chinatown.

At least, Li Weisi, who was far away in the Phoenix Hotel, did not feel the taste of the year around him. Even, because today is New Year's Eve, there are many fewer Asian audiences in the arena.

You know, as long as there is a Warriors game at this time, there will be a significant increase in Asian audiences, and this has attracted the attention of the league.

"What time will you be back tomorrow?"

"Available to San Francisco around 11am."

"That's okay, come back and eat dumplings before leaving. It's made with beef stuffing. Don't worry, beef tendon meat is pure lean meat. Anyway, tomorrow is the Spring Festival!"

"okay, I get it."

After setting the itinerary for the next day, Li Weisi hung up the phone. It seemed that since childhood, except for going to his father's house for dinner, his father never appeared in his life at other times.

And most of the time in life, it is Antoine who has no blood relationship with him who plays the role of father.

Under such circumstances, it is really a miracle that I have always thought that I am a Chinese instead of a Jew. Perhaps Frank has more credit for this.

After returning to San Francisco the next day, Li Weisi ate beef dumplings at Baiweiju at noon, and then returned home to rest for a day.

On the 30th, the home game against the Sonics.

Originally, this was just an ordinary home game, but when Li Weisi appeared on the field, the audience, led by the host, sang birthday songs. As for the object, it was the big screen The figure above is Li Weisi wearing the No. 99 jersey.

That's right, today is Li Weisi's 20th birthday.

And the instigator of all this is Frank.

He came to the home court ahead of time, and when the players were still in the locker room for a meeting, he walked to the logo area in the center of the court, and hoped that the audience would cooperate with him and bring Li Weisi an unforgettable birthday night.

Most of the fans who came to the arena were fans of the Warriors or Li Weisi himself, so of course everyone actively cooperated with Frank's proposal.

Then, a very touching scene appeared.

Tonight Li Weisi was the last to appear on the stage. When he entered the stage, the dark lights of the audience suddenly became brighter. At the same time, more than 15000 spectators sang in unison. The scene was extremely shocking.

And this scene was transmitted to all the TVs watching the game through the camera, which moved the audience watching the game.

When Li Weisi came to the middle of the court, he was still looking around in a daze. At this time, Donnie Nelson was pushing a small cart with a nine-story birthday cake on it, and Frank followed behind the cart.

When they came to Li Weisi, they first hugged Li Weisi affectionately, and said at the same time: "Happy birthday, West!"

"Thank you, Frank!"

Seeing such a scene of loving each other, not to mention the audience, even the teammates of the Warriors on the side, forgot their jealousy, immersed in the "brotherhood" of the two, and raised in their hearts, "I got this boss!" , Husband what to ask for” thought.

After the hug, Frank said to Li Weisi: "Come on, let's blow the cake!"

Li Weisi nodded and came to the cake. On the cake was not only his No. 99 jersey, but also candles in the shape of a "2" and a "0".

When Li Weisi blew out the candle, under the leadership of Frank again, the audience burst into applause.

Immediately afterwards, Frank took the microphone and said: "Thanks to the active cooperation of the audience, I can't express it enough, so every audience, after the game is over for a while, at the exit passage, can use the ticket for tonight's game to exchange with the staff. A piece of cake, thank you everyone! Please rest assured that these are all paid for by me personally and will not take up the funds of the team, please rest assured to enjoy!"

Then, there was another burst of warm applause.

It has to be said that Frank's marketing is really over. Just spent more than 1 cakes, which made the fans have a more sense of belonging to the Warriors and Li Weisi.

And before the start of the game, Frank had already negotiated with the league and CBS TV station, demanding that no matter what tonight's game, it must be a full-meter live broadcast. For this reason, he did not hesitate to give up other huge benefits.

But it's all worth it, at least, after tonight, there will definitely be a lot of media reporting on this matter, which will not only make the Warriors famous, but also continue to hype up their good boss personality, which kills two birds with one stone.

But everything has advantages and disadvantages, and the show celebrating Li Weisi's birthday is no exception.

For the Supersonics players who came to the away game, they felt very uncomfortable in their hearts, with sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty and five flavors in their hearts, so that they watched the entire show with a Sima face.

So, they vented the discomfort in their hearts through the game.

In the first quarter, Tom Chambers showed his strong offensive firepower. Facing Smith's defense, he made sudden shots, ignoring Smith's defense as nothing.

Under the leadership of Chambers, the entire Sonics team became more and more courageous, which caused the Warriors' defense to suffer a major blow.

However, this operation was as fierce as a tiger, and he turned his head and saw that he was standing still.

The Sonics played very well, but after looking at the score, they were still behind. What a ghost.

The reason is that although the Sonics performed well, Li Weisi performed better.

After all, Li Weisi is the protagonist tonight, and tonight's limelight is doomed to be only Li Weisi who has just turned 20 years old.

In the first quarter alone, Li Weisi showed his full strength. He made 7 of 6 shots in a single quarter, 5 of 4 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 20 points. The Warriors led the Supersonics by 36:30. Team.

In the first quarter, the Supersonics were almost blown away by Li Weisi alone.
