Chapter 389

On October 17, the Blazers were at home for their first regular season game of the season.

It's not the Lakers who are the favourites this year, it's the Spurs.

This season, the Lakers are seen as a team that is really qualified to shake the Trail Blazers, because their lineup is too luxurious.

History's most dominant interior O'Neal, history's youngest double MVP Kobe Bryant, all star MVP Glen rice, Wang Dynasty's dominant Ron Harper!

Such a super lineup, it's frightening!

But now the Lakers are not as optimistic as people think

Kobe Bryant just joined the Lakers, but he and O'Neal were named OK.

"I think it's more appropriate to call Ko combo, combo o o, combo of Ko opponents!" Bryant said at a pre-season press conference.

The reason why Kobe said this is simple and clear

That is, he felt that the combination of OK was an insult to himself

Why is my name behind O'Neill?! Why can't Lao Tzu put his name in front of O'Neill? It's called Ko group?!

O'Neill has a championship?! No,

O'Neill has a regular season MVP?! No!

does O'Neill have a finals fmvp? ! no!

He doesn't have anything in his hand. He's the most dominant internal name in his colorful history. Why is it called OK combination?!

Kobe is such a real man

Before in the pioneer, that is, there is Richard this evil star to suppress Kobe Bryant, let him restrain his temperament!

But now to the Lakers, Kobe Bryant is really going to start grudging, who can subdue him?!

Jackson Jackson? He can't suppress Kobe at all, he doesn't even care about Jackson.

……

People don't waste their youth, let alone Kobe Bryant, a 21-year-old boy who gets double MVP, who is almost frivolous to heaven.

But the Lakers have no choice but to coax Kobe and make him happy. Otherwise, the devil knows what can happen to him who is not happy.

I'm afraid the Lakers will be able to pack and sell other 21-year-old players overnight

But Kobe? The Lakers can't sell, even if Kobe Bryant is riding on the Lakers management, they can only bear

It's up to Kobe to win this season

……

Richard, of course, also knows about Kobe Bryant's presence in the Lakers. He's a bit of a wet blanket.

Today's Kobe Bryant is not Kobe Bryant in the normal history. Under normal circumstances, Kobe Bryant may restrain his temper because he hasn't played out yet

But now? Kobe is fully qualified to break a wrist with anyone. Will he restrain himself? Does he make himself uncomfortable?

It's totally impossible!

how the goods must be so comfortable and how they come? They are completely unbridled.

So I don't know if it's a good thing for the Lakers to recruit Kobe

……

"Richard! Portland law enforcement! "

"Our hero!"

"Super MVP in coaching!"

Tonight's game is about to start. Players from both sides start to enter the stadium. When Richard enters the stadium, there are waves of cheers.

The whole stadium is crowded with people, and the number of spectators is comparable to the playoffs!

Now Portland's Blazers' market has improved a lot due to their fierce performance in the past two years and a series of exciting events.

In terms of market value, in just three years, it has increased by at least 50%!

Last season's profitability, second only to the Knicks and Lakers, ranked third in the League!

the development of the pioneers is awesome.

……

"The Spurs are our old rivals. Relax. They have one more Bowen outside this season, but nothing else has changed!"

"Take care of their twin towers and we will win the game!"

Before the game, Richard encouraged a number of pioneers.

The Spurs' lineup hasn't changed much. It's still dominated by two towers, that is, there's more Bowen on the outside

But Bowen defense oriented, offensive ability is not strong, the league's medium level, so the Spurs offensive end of the help is limited.

Richard is going to win this game!

Winning the Spurs proves that the Blazers are still the super team, but if they lose, things will be a bit troublesome

"Jermaine, I want you to win David Robinson in all respects!"

"For you, I gave up Kobe. If you can't win even a 35 year old man, it will disappoint me!"

Richard looked at xiao'ao with bright eyes and said loudly.Xiao'ao nodded with a dignified face. "Coach, don't worry. I'll knock that old guy out tonight!"

Against David Robinson, Xiao Ao is quite confident. In last season's western competition, he has won David Robinson in the match!

And now xiao'ao continues to grow, while David Robinson continues to grow old and his strength continues to decline. Xiao'ao feels that he has a good chance to blow up the other side!

"Ben, you are the captain of our team. Remember, anyone can lose in the match, but you can't!"

"If you lose, it means our pioneers lose..."

"So I don't care if you are facing the biggest power forward in history or the most dominant internal line in history, you have to carry it down!"

Richard yelled at Big Ben again.

Big Ben thumped his chest. "Coach, look at me!"

"Driver, you must be Bruce Bowen!"

"But don't worry, his defense won't have much effect on you. Come on!"

"On the defensive side, all you have to do is follow Bowen and don't give him a three-point chance to shoot in an empty position. As for the offensive side, I hope you can take more responsibility!"

At present, a lot of drivers with cheerful personality nodded and said: "coach, what I can do will not let you down!"

……

"Tracy, I don't need to talk to you too much. Fight well..."

McGrady's heart tighten. Is Richard too lazy to talk to himself?

In the previous preseasons, McGrady started all the games, but he didn't have much time to play. The most time was only 25 minutes. On the contrary, Ginobili on the bench had more time to play

……

"Doodle doodle!" The referee whistled the start of the game.

The starters of both sides began to appear.

Trailblazer starting lineup: Big Ben, small Austria, driver, Robinson, McGrady.

Spurs starting lineup: Duncan, David Robinson, Elliott, Bowen, general.

The two teams are quite familiar with each other. Bowen and Big Ben greeted each other after playing.

After joining the Spurs, Bowen directly got the chance to start. Now he's better than in the Blazers. After all, in the Blazers, he can't get the chance to start, but more as a substitute.

But even if he did well in the Spurs, Bowen was very grateful to Richard

If Richard didn't bring himself back from Europe at the beginning, he would not know when he would play in the NBA, let alone whether he would have the chance to get a four-year contract of 17 million US dollars.

……

The small Austrian jump ball has won the ball right of the first attack round for the pioneer.

McGrady gets the ball, the ball is in front

He didn't dare to pull like he did at the beginning. When the ball came to the front court, he immediately found the position of Nowitzki and passed it at the first time.

In Richard's lineup, Nowitzki is the main output point of the offensive end. In daily training, Richard also requires more mobile phone meetings for Nowitzki.

So even if McGrady is facing a little general who is a whole head shorter than him, he doesn't hesitate to pass the ball to Nowitzki.

……

After Nowitzki received the ball, the Golden Rooster made a long-distance middle throw.

It is the same sentence that can prevent Nowitzki, only his own feeling

Nowitzki on the offensive side, as long as he feels comfortable, there is no solution at all.

"Shua!" Even in the face of Bowen's defense, it was easy to score.

If Bowen shakes his head and sighs, he is quite helpless

He can't defend the ball at all. It's useless for him to step forward even though he doesn't care about his friendship.

Nowitzki did take off a little bit when shooting, but that's not enough for Bowen's feet

With the front cover, Bowen has no chance at all, unless he is 15 centimeters taller and has a higher jumping ability

Popovich stood on the sidelines and sighed.

He's really helpless. I don't know where Richard got these strange players

It's really weird. Whose seven foot man is such a playboy?!

Shouldn't it be on the inside

Now Richard is ready to put a seven foot man on the outside line. It's just a sin to be used as a swing man of chengfengwei!

Popovich thought about it. It seems that players like Nowitzki really have

That's Wang Zhizhi, a 76er from Philadelphia. This guy is also a seven foot man, but he also plays outside!

The key is that Wang Zhizhi is also a player trained by Richard

It's just shameless!Popovich couldn't say he was helpless. He thought that after Rashid and Kobe left, the strength of the Blazers' outside line dropped dramatically, while the Spurs had more Bowen

Maybe this season, I can break my hand with the Blazers. It seems that I am not so optimistic when I see the situation on the field.

……

It was Spurs' turn to attack.

General's routine is to hang the ball into the hands of the twin towers. Big Ben firmly blocks Duncan behind him with his own muscles, and doesn't give Duncan a chance to catch the ball easily.

When the general saw this, he directly hoisted the ball to David Robinson.

The Admiral turns around to score on xiao'ao's head, but the ball he just shot is out of bounds by xiao'ao's slap

Richard sits on the sidelines and shouts, "as long as Xiao Ao has an advantage in the match with the admiral, the Spurs will never be the opponent of the Blazers!"!

……

A few rounds have passed. Big Ben really explains why his blue collar can get the top salary!

Now, Big Ben has really entered its peak period!

Even stronger than the normal peak period!

Rebounds, even more than Duncan some advantages, in addition to that, a strong and incomparable muscle, has not given Duncan a comfortable shot under the basket.

Xiao'ao's confrontation with the admiral has shown great advantages

This made Richard quite satisfied. In the first two seasons, the Blazers' two towers on the inside were opposite the Spurs' two towers, but in fact, they had no advantage.

In the 97-98 season, the Auburn team is at a great disadvantage.

In the 98-99 season, i.e. last season, the disadvantages have been basically eliminated, but there is still a slight disadvantage.

But at present, we can't see the disadvantage at all, and we can even play the advantage.

How could Richard not be satisfied

I spent a lot of money on Auburn group. The salary of these two goods accounts for more than half of the total salary of the pioneer!

If he can't beat the Spurs, Richard really can't explain

……

It's mainly because both Auburn and the Spurs are in the peak period, and Duncan in the Spurs twin towers is in the peak naturally, but the admiral, 35 years old, obviously has more than enough heart and less power

In the face of a calf like xiao'ao, the admiral has no advantage at all.

……

In just half a quarter, Nowitzki and xiao'ao scored 16 points hand in hand, leading the team four points ahead of the Spurs.

The difference of four points must not be too much, but the situation on the field is that the pioneers have taken the advantage, and the Spurs play quite passively.

……

Popovich's face is red. He can't afford to lose, but this situation makes him despair.

Anyway, it's not to lose to the pioneers. If you lose, you lose

But he can't find a way to win the pioneers at present, which makes him very angry!

Last season's Blazers are extremely strong, the strongest team in history, and it's quite normal for the Spurs to lose!

And this season, Popovich feels his spurs should be qualified to tie up with the Blazers.

But the situation on the field, it is Popovich poured cold water, the Spurs are still weak side.

……

Halfway through the first quarter, Richard called for a pause, replacing Robinson with Artest.

Now Robinson is not young, 33 years old

Although Richard will still give him the starting position, but it is unlikely to let him play too much time, the new players still need to exercise.

In Richard's opinion, it is a good choice to let Robinson play with the team's second team.

……

Artest came on stage with a grin, as if he had a nuclear reactor hidden in his body. He was full of energy at all times.

At present, his offensive ability is quite bad. Although Artest has been the team leader for a short time in his career, he is actually a senior 3D player.

The two-point goal hit rate is quite bad. As a striker, the average hit rate of career field is only 41%, which is definitely quite unqualified.

As for the three-point ability, it is not particularly reliable. In some seasons, it can reach the level of about 40%, but in some seasons, it can be as low as only more than 20%

This is Artest's rookie season, Richard did not expect Artest's three points how good, let him play, in order to play his defensive role.

Up to now, Elliott has a good offensive feel in the back of the Spurs, and Richard feels it is necessary to let Artest limit it.

……

Before the show, Richard and McGrady chatted again.Let him not be so tight, some hand rounds, in the case of a single general, you can still shoot, there is no need to share the ball to teammates every time.

Richard's attitude towards tmac is basically the same as that towards Kobe

You can do it, but you can't do it casually!

Opportunities can be given to you, but after opportunities are given to you, you must gain something

Li Chade did not want to go too far to attack Maddie's desire to attack. Now, taking advantage of the Spurs' defensive position, he is not too awesome, so that he can make Maddie feel for himself.

Mainly to find confidence

In the trailblazer team, T-Mac really has no bright spot. In addition to the ability of first-hand transmission and control, there is no advantage compared with his teammates in other aspects.

……

After the suspension, both sides return to the stadium.

There is no replacement for the Spurs. In fact, there is no replacement for them. Popovich on the bench can get a shot, that is, a cole

Cole is also an old man now. It's not suitable for him to come on the stage at this time.

Trailblazer's right to the ball, McGrady control the ball to the front court, eyes on the eyes of the little general.

Next, I saw T-Mac start to back up, not as hard as Kobe Bryant did when he was playing general. He just started to shake his back and jump shot.

In terms of aesthetic feeling, McGrady's back beating is the best

Kobe Bryant's high-level back play, is often desperate to the direction of the basket to squeeze, has been squeezed to their comfortable position, and then shot.

This kind of boar back beating is not as natural as that of McGrady.

Most of McGrady's back play is to control or catch the ball by himself. He only made a fake move of shaking, then he directly turned over and threw back.

However, it's not efficient for Tracy McGrady to play this way

At the moment, I'm lucky to make a shot. I hit it directly.

……

In the next few offensive rounds, McGrady could pass or throw, and the presence on the court was good.

But it's not t T-Mac, it's Artest.

……

"Boom..." Elliott received a pass from the general, trying to break through Artest, the result was quite miserable.

Artest, with all his strength, directly collided with Elliot

Think of Artest who broke Jordan's ribs during the rookie period, not to mention Elliot the glass man.

After a loud noise, Artest seemed to have nothing to do with him, but Elliott flew backwards and lay on the ground in agony.

To say that this defense, Artest is running to hurt people, that's not

The main reason is that Artest is too energetic. How can he not work hard when he finally catches his chance.

As a result, he may have overestimated Eliot's tolerance.

This guy's brain is estimated to be as big as a walnut. He really didn't think so much. Many of his actions are spontaneous. It's not like Bowen's old Yin X. many of his hurt actions are purposeful

……

The referee whistled wildly.

The young general looked at his teammate who had just been hit by Artest. He rushed towards Artest with red eyes and pushed Artest hard.

Think about the gap between the young general and Artest

Artest fought back and threw the general on the floor.

……

Richard is a fool. Are you kidding? How can I get back to work with the Spurs

The Spurs on the field really suffered. Elliott's injury was unknown. The old and small generals in the team's dressing room were pushed to the floor by the pioneer's new melon eggs. There was no face left!

Although the general's strength is not good, he is actually the leader of the dressing room of the Spurs. Even Popovich and Duncan have said more than once that the general's position in their dressing room

That's probably why the Spurs retired from the uniform.

……

Richard has some pain. Good guy, this little general will become a manager in the future, and he will be a very successful manager. He has made enemies again for no reason?!

The situation on the field did not allow Richard to make further moves

The main reason is that their trailblazers and Spurs have no grievances and no hatred. It's really unnecessary to expand the conflict.

Besides, the trailblazers didn't suffer at all. Artest, like a fool, stood on the court with a confused face

If the opponent of this game is the enemy, or the trailblazer has suffered losses on the field, Richard must have been unable to help

Call on the players to fight

……

Seeing his teammates suffer losses, Duncan and David Robinson are rushing from the forbidden area, ready to find the court.Duncan is definitely not the kind of player who likes to fight on the court. He is now running out of the penalty area with David Robinson. He is probably trying to reason with Artest

Throughout Duncan's entire career, although he was a big man and practiced boxing, he never shook his fist on the court.

There have been two conflicts, but Duncan is the loser.

One is the conflict between the Spurs and the coyote. Duncan's back head beats Garnett. Duncan turns around and sees that Garnett opens his hand and looks like he wants to keep fighting

As a result, Duncan didn't fight, but opened his mouth and asked Garnett, "what do you want to do?"

The second time is the Spurs and thunder game. Duncan meets Ibaka and Perkins' wallet. Perkins pinches Dunn's stupid neck and has turned his eyes

Later, when he was pulled away, everyone thought Duncan could fight. As a result, stone Buddha said, "what do you want to do?"

……

If you don't say stone Buddha, this kind of Buddha nature is not what ordinary players can have.

For example, in the case of Garnett's "* *" behavior, in the case of Big Ben, Big Ben may be able to tear Garnett's head off

"What do you want to do?" Duncan rushed to Artest and asked in a low voice.
