Basketball: Dayao Reopened

Chapter 166: Why is it so difficult?

The media open day is over, and the pre-season games are also coming. The teams have practiced for a month and finally have a chance to test results. However, this is only a pre-season game. Although the main players of the teams will play, they will not play too long. For example, the Rockets, some of the main players have the longest time on the court, and Mobley, he has to play more than 25 minutes in each game, and when he is on the field, he has the right to shoot, like Tom It is also to cultivate his offensive desire. After saying that he can enjoy unlimited firepower on the bench in the new season, he naturally has to encourage him to keep making shots from now on!

  

   Last season, Mobley made a big sacrifice for Yao Ming. He barely played with the ball, and his ability to hold the ball was so deprived.

  

   Fortunately, this season is not too long. Looking at these preseason games alone, Mobley's offensive ability with the ball has not been wasteful, averaging 16 points in 25 minutes per game.

  

   Mobley can also be considered the joy of finding the core of the bench!

  

  He is the Rockets preseason best.

  

   Others, including Yao Ming and the others, are pretty mediocre just by looking at the data. Yao Ming averaged 15 points and 8 rebounds in 6 games, and Francis also averaged 14 points and 6 assists.

  

   The Rockets' preseason results were not too good, with 3 wins and 3 losses, and the winning percentage barely exceeded 50%.

  

Compared to the core performances of their two Rockets, Cleveland’s new hope LeBron James’ performance in these six preseason games can be said to be exceptionally eye-catching, averaging 21 points and 4 rebounds in 32 minutes per game. 6 assists, no high school students feel uncomfortable after entering the league. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers' record in the preseason was not good, they only won two games, but the problem is, what record do you tell a newcomer! Yao Ming's team record last season, uh... well, it's pretty good, but the player is different from the player, LeBron... he's only 18 years old! What kind of bicycle is needed to have such a performance?

  

   Anyway, Cleveland's media has exaggerated more!

  

   What "nba genius once in 20 years", what "this guy doesn't need to adapt at all, he can perform well in this league"...

  

   In this wave of crazy flattery, LeBron James is coming to Houston with the Cavaliers!

  

   On the morning of the game, Tom was asked what he thought of LeBron.

  

  He said bluntly: "This is an incredible newcomer. He will achieve great success in this league. I am very optimistic about him because he is not like a newcomer at all!"

  

   Yao Ming also said: "We will not underestimate him just because he is a newcomer, I know very well, that is not right!"

  

   The "dread" of everyone on the Rockets made Cleveland fans very satisfied. They felt that people from other teams should have this attitude towards LeBron James...

  

   Obviously, they don’t know what a polite talk is.

  

   I don’t know...The more polite people are, the more ruthless they will be when they get to the game field!

  

   The evening comes soon.

  

   The Toyota Center, which had been quiet for a few months, gradually became lively.

  

   Many fans arrived at the arena early.

  

   They can’t wait to see the Rockets’ new lineup!

  

Before the closed training camp of the new season had not started, Tom and Thibodeau felt that they had never played such a wealthy battle, and this feeling was more than that of them. This group of people who watched the Rockets for more than ten years The fans also feel the same way! In terms of fame, it is estimated that the “Three Old Rockets” headed by Olajuwon, Drexler and Barkley can be compared with the fame of this team, but the problem is, even if it is. That team, only the three "old men" and other ordinary main players, can the configuration of the substitute players compare with this team?

  

  Really, it's not the same level at all!

  

   The home team is so strong, can they not be active?

  

   It's just that, everyone on the Cavaliers who entered the game early, including LeBron James, suffered a bit. They were surrounded by huge boos as soon as the goal hall.

  

   The boo was so loud that LeBron James was stunned in an instant.

  

  Originally, after playing a few games before the preseason, he still felt that the NBA auditorium was nothing more than that. Until this moment, he realized that he was wrong, and he was wrong!

  

   It's not that the NBA's auditorium is not good, but that the preseason is not good. No one takes the preseason seriously.

  

  He is stunned here, and Ricky Davis has already called to him over there: "Boy, give me my sneakers!"

  

   LeBron James ran over and passed the Nike in his hand to Ricky Davis.

  

   As soon as LeBron James became the No. 1 pick this summer, Nike signed a seven-year 93 million contract with him. He also became the first high school student in Nike history to get such a large contract.

  

   Needless to say this attitude, Nike is cultivating him as the face of the future!

  

   It’s just this moment, Nike’s future facade, handing shoes to others... It can only be said that NBA’s "rookie culture" is really useless for anyone to experience. Novices should experience it, and everyone has to experience it.

  

After putting on his shoes, Ricky Davis stomped his feet with satisfaction, and then walked towards the court. By the way, he also "pointed out" LeBron James: "Listen to the kid, don't ignore these boos. You will soon discover that these boos can't affect you at all!"

  

   LeBron James nodded seemingly.

  

   Ricky Davis was very satisfied with his reaction. At this moment, he thought of Michael Jordan and Scotty Pippen. That's how Michael Jordan guided the rookie Pippen, right?

  

   With the Cavaliers’ main players warming up, the time for the Rockets’ home players’ entrance ceremony has also arrived.

  

   Almost every player who played has received a lot of cheers, including Battelle. He also felt the enthusiasm of Houston fans.

  

Of course, from the time Karl Malone played, the cheers on the scene suddenly went up to a new level. Now Houston fans know that he sacrificed to play the bench for the championship. It can be said that they are all touched. So at this moment , The fans all spontaneously sent a huge cheer.

  

   Karl Malone can't help but chant again: This is my home!

  

   He regretted not coming to Houston earlier.

  

   I blame Stockton!

  

  Stockton: So love changes, right?

  

   It was Yao Ming who received the most cheers.

  

   When he played, the cheers were so loud that it really almost overturned the roof of the arena!

  

   On-site dj yelled desperately in his voice, introducing the words of Yao Ming, but was still drowned in cheers...

  

   "Enough time!"

  

   "Enough time!"

  

   "Let us give an outstanding performance tonight!"

  

   In this kind of huge cheers, Yao Ming pulled all the Rockets and carried out a pre-match mobilization. With the voice of all the members of "gogogo", the opening game of the Rockets for the 03~04 season officially began!

  

   Rockets start: Francis on the first position, Lagabeel on the second position, Sean Battier on the third position, Kevin Cato on the fourth position, Yao Ming on the fifth position;

  

   Cavaliers starting: Ricky Davis at the first position, Jeff McGinnis at the second position, LeBron James at the third position, Carlos Boozer at the fourth position, big z at the fifth position;

  

   Big z successfully jumped to the ball.

  

Ricky Davis grabbed the ball and slowly moved to the front court amidst the boos of the audience. At the same time, he motioned to his teammates to help him open. The first goal of the new season, as the Cavaliers boss, of course he wants himself. Come to fight.

   Faced with Francis, Ricky Davis made a stop jumper after a dribble...missed.

  

   Kevin Cato under the basket caught the big z in time to prevent him from jumping.

  

Yao Ming confronted the "enemy of life" Carlos Boozer, took a firm foothold, and took the ball off the latter's head. It turned out that there was no Okur to make trouble by the side. Boozer wanted to take possession of Yao Ming. It's cheap, it's a bit dreamy.

  

   At this moment, the Cavaliers' "Oku" is being stuck in place by Yao Ming's "Yu Qian"!

  

   Boozer touched his head awkwardly.

  

   Yao Ming's pick on top of his head is really not harmful and very insulting...

  

   Yao Ming, who got the ball, gave it to Francis the first time. Francis dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. He didn't rush to do it on his own, but waited for Yao Ming to pass halftime.

  

   Other people also stand in their respective positions, and the two high positions are vacated... There is no doubt that this is the embodiment of status!

  

   Yao Ming did not slow down to the high post, and Francis immediately gave him the ball.

  

   Big z made it up early.

  

   Yao Ming is not in a hurry.

  

   He glanced at Boozer behind Da Z.

  

But this is not the reason why he didn't have his own attack... It was just a Boozer. He turned around and jumped past the big Z. He broke through with the ball in his right hand. After attracting Boozer to make up for it, he moved across by a large margin. , And then switch to the left hand basket, you can definitely put the ball into the basket.

  

   There is already a picture of scoring the ball in his mind.

  

It’s just that he didn’t deliberately fight against Boozer as he did last season. As for the reason, the first season may be too successful. Without Deron Williams and Okur’s Boozer, Yao's name is a bit of a point of view. Not on it!

  

   In the first game of the new season, he put more energy on the team's running-in.

  

   directs his teammates to move.

  

   Then when Francis cut, he gave the ball to the latter.

  

  Ricky Davis carries the bad ailments of most bad team bosses: not defending!

  

   When Francis successfully opened his position with him, the guy's choice was to watch Francis rush towards the Cavaliers' basket.

  

   "Bah!"

  

The Rockets’ first goal in the first game of the new season came from the cooperation between Yao Ming and Francis. If the second second dubbing of the "Best Five Balls" is used, the ball should look like this: the big devil should send a second pass. , Spider-Man soars into the sky and completes the thunderbolt!

  

   This explosive one button naturally made a huge cheer on the scene.

  

   Ricky Davis continued his offense, and the face he lost on the defensive end, he planned to find it back on the offensive end.

  

   "Bang Dang!"

  

   It's a pity that he finally got rid of Francis' defense, but was blocked near the free throw line by Lagabe. Seeing that the time was approaching, he could only make a hasty shot.

  

   The ball missed again.

  

  Hu~

  

   Two consecutive misses, Ricky Davis dangling his collar back to guard, wiping sweat to cover up his embarrassment.

  

   No, I can’t fight like this!

  

   He realized that he had to change his style of play...

  

  Where is my Pippen?

  

   He looked at LeBron James, he felt that he had to let LeBron James play two first to attract defensive firepower!

  

   "Boy, it's up to you!"

  

   Ricky Davis didn't hesitate to do it. The Cavaliers' next attack, he gave the ball to LeBron James.

  

The first time LeBron James held the ball, he slammed on the accelerator and rushed past Battier. Battier didn't seem to expect that the explosive power of the senior high school student in front of him was so terrifying. He was just about to send. When the force came up, the latter had already rushed past him.

  

   This speed, this explosive force!

  

   What's so special!

  

   Tom was also a little surprised.

  

   In terms of physical fitness alone, he has to admit that the Rockets have one of them and they are not the opponents of LeBron James.

  

Although this guy’s physical fitness is surprising, he has a direct layup. Even Kevin Cato accurately predicted his position. He successfully topped him in his breakthrough. After the contact, this guy was stunned that he was not knocked into the air, but squeezed Kevin Cato away, took a big step, raised his hand and sent the ball toward the basket.

  

   This domineering physical quality!

  

"Snapped!"

  

   There is a saying, LeBron James's breakthrough has indeed fully demonstrated his terrifying talent. The only problem may be that the Rockets really restrained him on the defensive end!

  

Kevin Katoka, although he didn't stop him, still let him unload and let him take the last step before the shot, which is equivalent to saying that LeBron James at this time is inevitable. No, no, It was directly covered by Yao Ming...

  

   Not to mention Yao Ming, as long as it is an insider who is not too bad in defense awareness, he can easily interfere!

  

   This hot pot is a welcome to you...

  

   Yao Ming blocked the shot and held the ball firmly.

  

He was going to say "Welcome to the NBA" towards LeBron James, but after he took the ball, he saw the opportunity for a fast break, and he didn't care about talking rubbish, so he gave the ball and shouted. "start running"!

  

   "Bah!"

  

   This fast break finally ended with Francis's another burst.

  

   LeBron James watched the Rockets complete the fast break, with some regrets in his eyes. He thought he should be able to score the goal just now!

  

   Ricky Davis "saw" the pity on LeBron James's face~www.novelmt.com~The next offense he still gave to LeBron James.

  

Keep going!

  

   He saw the momentum of LeBron James, and he believed that if the kid rushed twice, the Rockets' defensive center of gravity would completely move toward that guy.

  

   LeBron James got the ball and didn't hesitate, he really wanted to continue attacking by himself.

  

But this time, Shane Battier defended him as soon as he got the ball, and all sorts of "fudges" on him, which made LeBron James not dare to dribble for several seconds after he got the ball, and in the end Pass the ball again.

  

   "Bang Dang!"

  

   He wasted these seven or eight seconds. The Cavaliers' offensive formation didn't spread out at all. He suddenly passed the ball, and the remaining time was due to the Cavaliers' tactical qualities, and he could only fight one indiscriminately.

  

   "Bang Dang!"

  

   The ball is missed again.

  

   Yao Ming, with the help of Kevin Cato, once again protected the rebound.

  

   The Rockets immediately turned into a fast break...

  

   Unknowingly, the Rockets started 8-0.

  

   Cleveland's "Jordan" and "Pippen" after the Rockets scored another goal, both kicked the waist and looked helpless. They seemed a little confused. It was so difficult to score a goal!
