At the end of the All-Star Weekend, the 76ers adjusted their mentality in time and they had to charge towards the ultimate goal as quickly as possible.

Currently they have 49 wins and 5 losses, and there are not many teams that can make them lose.

What's more valuable is their chemical reaction.

Derek Ross, who had been silent for a long time, entered another state after the holiday.

At this time, it happened that Teodosic was out of the game due to injury, and someone on the team's back line needed to stand up.

Ross stood up.

Jay Wright tried to let Weschels play the third position to relieve the pressure, and they needed an impactful point guard to share the offensive firepower.

Ross is certainly the best choice.

The season started over and Ross scored 21 points in the first match against the Pelicans, which was a small warm-up.

With him playing, Wei Xia and Kobe can be more comfortable.

Two days later, Ross played a triple-double.

The last time Rose won a triple-double was seven years ago, with the Bulls, the first triple-double in his career.

That year was his MVP season.

Seven years have passed, if the Chicagoans were told that Ross was no longer with the Bulls seven years later, he was not even the All-Star seven years later. In the spontaneous ratings of fans, he only scored 4 points (out of 10), which is a normal rotation score.

If you really told the Chicago people at the time that way, they would think you were crazy.

At 76ers, Ross changed to wear No. 25.

Because, for him, his past self has passed away.

Now he is just an ordinary player who needs to use all his strength to make a living in the NBA. The halo of the former MVP is no longer an honor, but a burden. He has reached that level, so even if he is a rotation player, people will demand higher.

The 76ers are undoubtedly a championship team. Due to Ross' mismatch in his style and his serious lack of self-confidence, his life in Philadelphia was very painful.

Some time ago, he left without saying goodbye. The reason for his disappearance was that he needed to find a quiet place to think about how to move forward in the future.

76 people chose to understand this "unprofessional" approach.

They did not hold Ross accountable, and the external reason was that Ross had to deal with private matters, so he had a quit indefinitely, but his teammates had always given him a lot of care.

Especially Wei Xia, who was lobbying by him. Ross believed in him and was willing to join the 76ers to chase the championship with him. When Ross fell into a trough, Wei Xia called him and chatted every day.

Finally, he came back, and his mental outlook was very different from before.

A triple-double to the piston is like a prophecy in a big show.

Rose's outbreak prevented the 76ers from losing until the end of February.

In the final match in February, the opponent is the Wizards. The 76ers are currently 54 wins and 5 losses, leading the second-place Lakers in the league with 7 wins.

At this time, they have entered the stage of letting the core rest and prepare for the playoffs.

The Wizards are one of the worst defense teams in the league, and Wright lets Kobe take a rest.

Perhaps this is why Kobe was resting, and the 76ers lost the firepower point of 20 points per game, and others had to bear more.

At the beginning of the game, Wei Xia originally wanted to play more aggressively, and it would be best to get the opponent in one wave. No one expected that the protagonist tonight would be Rose.

The Wizards attacked Wei Xia and gave Rose three-pointer.

Wei Xia passed the ball to Ross and he made a three-pointer, which was a good start.

After a while, Ross and Wei Xia fought back and made a layup with one of the worst defense inside players in the league.

When many of the Wizards entered the league, Ross was already injured, and these people didn't know much about how Ross dominated the game before the injury.

Wei Xia saw a familiar figure.

The MVP, who led the Bulls to eliminate them in the 2011 playoffs, seemed to have returned briefly.

With this beginning, Rose's energy came up, and probably his physical reaction suddenly returned to the Bulls era. He found Cousins ​​to cover the counterattack, and a signature cross-step changed direction, jumped, stagnated, and hit the board with his left hand in the air 21.

This is the monster that doesn't pull the rod and feel uncomfortable.

When Wei Xia went down to rest, Wright asked Rose to continue playing.

Kobe was not present, Cousins ​​was not excited when he looked at it. At first glance, the 76ers actually regarded Ross as the core of the offensive, and he did not hesitate.

Because the core players of the 76ers took the initiative to paddle, Ross's stage became much bigger, but many of the things he did in the first half were just the category of role players, and there was no surprise.

So at the end of the midfield, Wei Xia told him: "You can play better."

In the second half, Ross came up and called a pick-and-roll, and swept into the inside line like lightning, facing Polish hammer Gott to score a goal.

After that, it was another terrible step to pass the defender and pass the ball to Wei Xia. Wei Xia got the scoring opportunity created by his teammates' personal abilities for a long time.

From then on, he found that Ross was a little different.

Before he was injured in 11 years, when he was most explosive, he had spring legs and full of energy and had nowhere to vent. He always jumped and took steps on the field, as if he was about to ignite the fire and take off the next moment, but after leaving the Bulls, there were fewer and fewer shots like this.

Wei Xia did not waste the opportunity Ross gave him and made a three-pointer.

The Wizards' defense is very poor, but the 76ers are obviously driven by Rose at present, so they will increase the defensive pressure on Rose.

Ross was fearless and jumped to the right with a quick stop shot from behind the cross step. His shooting posture was not for those mediocre three-pointers, but for making such moves.

This is a movement that only superstars can master and be proficient in.

The more he played, the more excited he became, the more excited he became. The instinct to dominate the game was activated. The shots in the penalty area changed backwards in the opponent's center's hand - the end of the penalty area that was so familiar that it was used around 10 years ago, and the fence of the mortal world could not stop him.

Then he accelerated and swept the three-man basket after pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, and then took a quick turnaround attack under the crotch, and then scored on the top of the Wizards' inside line.

This team with extremely poor defense just made Ross recall his courage back then.

Wei Xia knew whose game this was, so he stopped quickly and basically didn't do anything except eating the cakes given by Ross.

Ross' explosive power and speed did not decay too much, but since he left the Bull, he cherished his speed and body more and more, and became cautious and did not dare to move forward with all his strength, just like a deliberately hypnotic master who wanted the world and himself to forget all this.

After that, everything came.

Three points to take a step back;

One dozen four air levers to find the board;

The 76ers set up double covers for him to attack, and directly accelerated against Gotat, and used a fake move to shake off the Wizards' best defensive player and made a layup;

Then he used the cover to break into the basket, raised his hand and pulled the ball, turned around and shot in half.

He was so energetic that he held the game in his hands.

He was originally born for these things!

All his skills reunite with his soul, and at the right night, he turned back to his youthful self.

He finally scored 50 points on the free throw line, leading the 76ers to win the 55th win of the season, defeating the Wizards.

The game was over, Ross covered his face and cried, his teammates came to him to encourage him, and his emotions had disintegrated inside his eyes.

Rose's scoring record was set in the MVP season, and he couldn't imagine it would break in such a way seven years later.

Most players may have retired when encountering his things, and not many superstars can face their mediocre selves.

Wei Xia looked at Ross silently for a difficult interview, and the touch he received was huge.

This is Rose's outbreak, and his teammates will be motivated by this.

"This is not fate's favor to Derek, I hate this statement." Wei Xia told reporters, "This is how a man faces his answer in the long darkness and setbacks. We must pay tribute to him!"

The 76ers are not just a team leading the record.

They are even a team with strong centripetal force.

The whole team is up and down, everyone is willing to fight for each other.

This was perfectly interpreted on Rose's 50th night.

The Lakers' talent seems invincible, but the top-down unity and selflessness of the 76ers may condense into greater strength.

The 76ers' sixth defeat was won after they won 60 wins.

60 wins and 6 losses.

There are 18 regular season games left, and they need to win 15 games to break the record set by the Warriors several years ago.

But they don’t aim for this, just let it go, the record is a cloud of clouds.

They won 12 of these 18 games because in the final stage, they carried out a large-scale rotation rest strategy, giving the main players enough rest time, and also tied the second record in the history of the 96 Bulls.
