"22 points, 14 rebounds, including seven frontcourt rebounds, 10 assists."

Rookie Chen Mu, who played 28 minutes off the bench and cut down an efficient triple-double!

After the 76ers' away game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, this eye-popping statistic quickly spread on the Internet.

"The best, there is no doubt that the best player in this game is the Chinese boy!"

In the post-game commentary, Kenny Smith asked Barkley whether the best player of the match should go to LeBron or Iverson, but the latter gave a different answer.

"I mean, yes, LeBron has 33 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists, very versatile, superstar performance, impeccable. When the team was out of scoring, it was LeBron who supported the team's offensive firepower. ”

Barkley shook his head and said: "On the 76ers' side, Iverson also played well, with 31 points, 11 assists, and 4 steals, which knocked the Cavaliers' backcourt out of shit." ”

"But if you want to say who the best player in this game is, I still have to tell you without hesitation, it is a Chinese boy, Chen!"

Although Barkley has always exaggerated his rhetoric, this time, his views have been recognized by many people.

Chen Mu's wonderful performance in this game soon spread on the foreign Internet, and many fans began to share their thoughts about this game on Facebook, which had just become popular. There were even Cavaliers fans who watched the game live and proudly said that they had just watched a "great rookie solo show".

In the motherland on the other side of the ocean, Chen Mu's wonderful performance has gradually aroused heated discussions.

Different from the discussion of Chen Mu last time when he was in power with the Suns, many domestic fans at that time still had doubts about whether Chen Mu could gain a foothold in the NBA. As most commentators say, Chen Mu's offensive methods are clumsy, and it is really difficult to adapt to the increasing pace of the NBA.

This time, Chen Mu shined again in the 76ers, not only maintaining the demeanor of a rebounding maniac, but also showing all-round potential.

Videos and video materials of Chen Mu's game scene began to spread on the Internet, coupled with Chen Mu's special background from China, the No. 5 player of the 76ers began to have a certain degree of popularity all over the world.

"[Rapid rise] Can Chen Mu become the main player and start the game?"

"[Overdrive Evolution! One by one, Chen Mu, you are so good, do your parents know? ”

"[All-round rebounding idiot] came off the bench to get a triple-double!"

Posts about Chen Mu appeared on the Internet, and all kinds of discussions emerged one after another.

Gradually, a topic came to the fore.

"Chen Mu, can you win the award of the best player in the NBA East this week?"

Although in the history of the NBA, there are not too few players who won the Weekly Championship in their rookie season, and there are even monsters like Big Shark O'Neal who won the Weekly Championship in the first week of their careers.

However, as an undrafted rookie, it is rare to win the player of the week in his rookie season.

In three games in a week, he averaged 21.6 points and 14.3 rebounds (including 5.3 frontcourt rebounds) in 27 minutes per game, in addition to averaging 4 assists per game with 10 assists in the final game.

Can such data be a candidate for the best of the week?

Chen Mu also wanted to know.

Philadelphia.

In the 76ers training hall, the day's intensive training has ended, and the players have scattered in all directions, each starting to practice for a specific event according to their own situation.

"Chen, what do you want to practice?"

Iguodala came to Chen Mu's side and asked in a friendly manner.

"Oh, I'm going to practice the equipment, after all, my strength is still too poor."

Chen Mu responded.

"That's right, I'll go to the equipment room too, let's go together!"

Iguodala patted Chen Mu on the shoulder, and the two walked into the instrument room together and began their respective exercises.

During the practice, Iguodala and Chen Mu chatted with each other, especially when a group of training sessions was over, and both of them would take advantage of the break to chat a few words.

As a player who entered the NBA a year before Chen Mu, Iguodala has a lot of experience to share, and although this honest and honest Illinois man, although he has a very strong body, at least he can be an All-Star attacker, but he always seems too selfless.

Looking at Iguodala, who was still immature, Chen Mu's thoughts couldn't help but drift to the original timeline.

Iguodala, you know what? At the end of this season, the 76ers are going to fall apart, and you're going to have to take the lead on your own!

The last time I communicated with Iverson in the bar, Chen Mu was a little uncertain about his future.

If the timeline doesn't change much, then this season will be the farewell performance of Iverson, the son of Philadelphia.

In order to get fresh power through drafts and trades, the team will massively clean up old players. Not only Iverson, but most of the veteran players who have been with the team in the playoffs in the past few years will be cleared out.

The rest is the future of the 76ers.

It's just that from the perspective of Chen Mu, a person who has crossed over, this "future" is really a bit far away.

“…… Chen, did you hear that? ”

"Hmm...... Well?? ”

Iguodala's voice sounded in his ears, Chen Mu came back to his senses and looked up, only to see that the former's trademark thick lips were about to touch his face, and he frowned and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?" Why did you suddenly stop talking? ”

"Eh, I'm going to ......!"

Chen Mu was almost scared, thinking that this big man wouldn't have Long Yangzhi, right? hurriedly pulled away and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I was a little distracted just now, what did you just say?" ”

"I said, are you alone in the United States?" Iguodala said seriously: "No family or friends or anything? Every time a game or training is over, I see that you go home silently alone, as if no one comes to pick you up, or have an appointment with you or something. ”

"Oh, this......"

Chen Mu shook his head and sighed: "I came alone, my family is in China, and I don't have any relatives or friends here, so I usually don't have anything to do at night, so I go home alone." ”

"To be honest, I also don't like going to bars and stuff like that with AI a lot."

Iguodala deliberately lowered her voice and said, "I'm a Christian, I'm not used to those places. ”

"However, it's not a solution to be bored all the time, and after a long time, there will be mental problems."

Iguodala returned to the apparatus and said loudly as he prepared for the next set of exercises, "I've seen a lot of players, both in college and in professional basketball, just like you, living alone and paying a lot of money alone. I don't know what to do after a long time, you know, in this society, anything can be bought with money. ”

"Without a source of stimulation, life becomes boring, running around all year round, and I can't go home a few times a year, you think, if it's you, what can you do?"

Chen Mu didn't quite understand what Iguodala meant, and asked tentatively, "Uh...... ...... reading online novels, voting for recommendations, rewarding or whatever? ”

"It's not." Iguodala waved his hand, then turned his head sideways to look at Chen Mu, his eyes glared at the boss, and pretended to be shocked: "DRUGS, have you touched that thing?" ”

"No, of course not!" Chen Mu's head shook like a rattle, and he resolutely denied it.

"That's good, don't touch that thing." Iguodala said earnestly: "Once, just once, you will be wasted, you will not be able to come back, your body will get worse and worse, you can't do the original simple technical movements, your spirit will always be in a trance, and you may short circuit at any time." ”

"Baias, Rombaias, have you heard of it?"

Chen Mu nodded slightly and said, "The legend is a super rookie who can be compared to Jordan." ”

"That's an exaggeration." Iguodala said: "Rumbias and Mike have never been bargained. But he is indeed a genius, there is no doubt about it. ”

“RUINED－BY－DRUGS，HAH~”

Chen Mu knew the story told by Iguodala, and Rumbyas, who had high hopes that he could become a superstar, eventually died due to excessive use of illegal drugs after being drafted by the Celtics.

This accident directly caused the revival of the Celtics to be delayed for an unknown number of years.

Iguodala found that Chen Mu was always alone and didn't seem to have any friends, and he was worried that Chen Mu would be contaminated with bad habits, so he came to talk to Chen Mu, hoping that he would not go astray.

"Iguodala, what a good-hearted and good person, worthy of deep friendship!"

Chen Mu looked at Iguodala gratefully and nodded secretly in his heart.

"By the way, Chen, it's been a few months since you came to the United States, and you haven't had a girlfriend?"

After another set of exercises, Iguodala smiled playfully: "You Chinese won't be conservative to this extent, right?" Ha ha! ”

"No, no, it's just that there is no chance to meet a good girl."

Chen Mu smiled awkwardly, thinking of the two stunners that Iverson sent to him that night, that night ** was indeed very comfortable, but this kind of girl who was too open and willing to be with many people, Chen Mu was still a little unbearable.

"Haha, don't be shy~"

Seeing Chen Mu's embarrassment, Iguodala said: "I'm just kindly reminding you, if you have the opportunity, let's find a girlfriend quickly!" It's hard to be alone in a foreign country~"

"Doodoo Doo"

At this time, Chen Mu's mobile phone rang and said hello to Iguodala, Chen Mu walked aside and took out his mobile phone to see that it was an unfamiliar number, and he picked it up without paying attention.

"Hey, is it Chen Mu?"

On the other end of the phone, a familiar and unfamiliar voice rang, and this title made Chen Mu a little stunned.

This voice, could it be......

"Is it Chen Mu? Don't play dead, I know it has to be you! As soon as you exhale, I know it's you, speak! ”

It's still a fiery temper, it's still a momentum that can't be forgiven, and it's still the momentum that may swallow the other party at any time.

These few words suddenly brought Chen Mu's thoughts back to that youthful memory not long ago.

"It's me, Mo Fei!"

On the other end of the phone, the familiar voice was still talking, and outside the instrument room, Salmons suddenly rushed in excitedly, and when he saw Chen Mu, he shouted loudly: "Chen! Come and see the news! Sports News! ”

"Hmm...... Yes? ”

Chen Mu didn't react at once, he didn't know which way to respond, he raised his eyes and looked blankly, his face was full of confusion.

"Turn on the TV and watch the news!" Salmonds excitedly shouted, "Best of the Week!" You've got the title of Player of the Week in the East!! ”
