I Don’t Want to be the Boss

Vol 18 Chapter 1942: Do not be discouraged

"Is Radmarcus' injury? We just take it as a rotation. We will wait patiently for him to come back. He will take care of the injury. Our three consecutive championships depend on his inside dominance."

"No problem, with the third brother here, we can get through all the difficulties."

"We did a very good job in the offseason. It should be said that we have done a good job in the offseason over the years. Since I joined the team, we have always been the favorites to win the championship, and we have won 4 championships... I only played 6 seasons in total. Is there anything better than this? I think Chris should be the best manager every year."

"Are there two rookies? They are better than you think. In a few years, you will find that our head coach has two more disciples. Well, the most powerful one is the third brother."

"The NBA will add 10 new players to the 70th Anniversary 70 Superstars? Will I be selected? Maybe or not, but I don't care if I am a historical superstar. Winning the championship is what I care about most. The championship will My name is inscribed in NBA history."

"Three brothers? He is the best in history!"

"..."

"..."

Paul George has become more and more proficient in dealing with the media. Just follow James to learn how to talk to the media, plus a little Grizzlies temperament, that is, the temperament of a No. 3 player, not too much... Learned from James, he was taught by the No. 3 player, and later, he figured it out.

Paul George was being interviewed by the media. At the end of the interview, a warm-up Buddha appeared next to him: "I have only played 5 years and have 4 championships, which is a little better than this guy."

"..."

Paul-George looked at the shameless camera, but he couldn't refute it because they were telling the truth.

Paul George suddenly discovered that Klay Thompson had learned the essence of the third brother! You pretend to be honest, and do what you say.

The former Paul George thinks he can learn, the latter is... so difficult!

After Paul George was interviewed, his entry time was almost up. Paul George followed the group of teammates who had left the boss behind and walked into the player channel together...

...

Seeing the defending champion team members on the opposite side walk out of the player channel, Owen felt a trace of despair. He has such an excellent teammate as Anthony Davis, and this year Anthony Davis is obviously better than him. Stronger, but their overall strength does not rise but falls!

In the past summer, they fought for Durant and Love failed. The Pelicans owner was unwilling to give Howard and Horford a maximum salary. Not only that, Eric Gordon and Ryan Anderson were also poached. The head coach was robbed by the Grizzlies. Of course, Kidd was kicked out by the general manager because he wanted to serve as the CEO. If it weren’t for the 4-year 70 million premium contract, they would have been okay this summer. Count the crash!

In terms of the free market, apart from using a 4-year 50 million contract to dig a 3D player from the Bulls to rely on Wan Moore, and 4 years 30 million to dig Langston Galloway for the Knicks, there is nothing to gain.

This summer their Pelicans smashed $150 million and their strength dropped a lot.

Even Anthony Davis almost refused to renew his contract, and in the end he only signed a three-year contract renewal of 70 million. He did not accept a 4-year maximum salary of 98 million or a 5-year maximum salary of $129 million.

However, Irving understands the mentality of Anthony Davis that almost collapsed. He regretted the 15-year contract extension for 5 years. It was not because of the salary cap increase. His endorsement fee was not low. What he regretted was not seeing through this team. When the management started in Tianhu, they were able to play to the current situation.

Think about the 2012 draft, they have his core combination of Irving, Eric Gordon, Moreau, Aminu, Ryan Anderson, Anthony Davis.

As long as this develops steadily, waiting for the summer of 2015, when his new contract with Irving has not yet taken effect and Anthony Davis is still a rookie contract, he can sign Love with the rookie bonus.

But they themselves eliminated Aminu, Jr. Lopez, and Moreau, and turned into a team that relied purely on double champions. Only if Love is willing to come is there a ghost.

Love at the time was not inferior to Anthony Davis at the time. In terms of talent, the Timberwolves despised all teams in the league except the Kings. Over the years, the margins of the bench are all former geniuses. Why can’t they play? come out? Isn’t the management operation too magical?

Love has gone through so much, how can he not see that their Pelicans management is as wise? After watching their Pelicans' operations over the past two years, everyone knows that their management is not that good.

Irving didn't expect a superstar to come this summer, but he didn't expect that not only did the superstar not come, the team couldn't even get a star on the edge of the All-Star, and his own high-quality role players were let go.

It's mainly what Anthony Davis thinks. Irving doesn't know very well, and he doesn't understand what the management thinks.

Irving is at a loss here, Sun Ce on the other side is also sorry for Irving and Anthony Davis.

"Owen S-, Davis S-... Davis is a bit more powerful than Owen, this seems to be almost S grade, right? The rookie contract has just ended! In addition to Griffin today, who is better than David Is it amazing? I didn't expect that these two teams would make the first round or even the playoffs all year round... Wait, Yao Ming and McGrady, I didn't expect them to make the first round or even the playoffs forever.

Yao Ming needs world peace, Davis also needs Long's guidance to open the correct way of using it, but it's better for Long to play with James..."

Sun Cezhen feels that the stronger Anthony Davis is, the less suitable he will be with Irving. It is just like Yao Ming's peak season, averaging 25 points, 9.4 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks. The season is not the same as Tracy McGrady. Tracy is suitable for double guard Swingman's style of play, and Yao Ming is suitable for positional and center-based play; for the Pelicans, Irving is suitable for positional and singles play with a core organization, while Anthony Davis is suitable for brisk play. The more advanced and stronger the person is, the less he can cooperate with each other, and he will win the game by his personal ability. However, there is a gap between the two people's personal abilities and Westbrook. There is only one ball. The combined effect of the two is also the same as that of Westbrook. Brook is about the same, leading the team at the level of the second half of the playoffs, and his teammates are not as good as Westbrook.

"The one who can save this team... is James? These two people add James, James and Davis play the core, and Owen is responsible for singles scoring to help James share the ball... Or my grandson? Or Pinnacle Pakistan Tum? The peak Kirilenko also plays."

Apart from this idea, Sun Ce couldn't think of any way for the two to make the pair of double champions fit together.

A simple analysis of the opponent, apart from the double champion's personal ability, the Pelicans has nothing to be afraid of. The opponent can't make it to the playoffs in the Wild West. Even if they meet in the first round, Sun Ce is confident enough. Beat each other easily.

The strength gap is too big.

After coming to the opposite bench and greeted some of the other players who are more familiar, Sun Ce hugged and chatted with the other's coach Gentry. Originally, the first goal of their Grizzlies tactical coach this summer was not Kidd. It was the Warriors' offensive and defensive assistant combination Gentry and Mike Brown. They talked very well. Mike Brown came and Gentry was ready to come, but the Pelicans sent Gentry a head coach invitation.

The Grizzlies management must let go and not hinder their future. Not everyone, like Pat Riley, will take the big disciple Da Van Gundy as a video editor and prevent Van Gundy from leaving.

Anthony Davis looked at Sun Ce and Gentry, whose relationship was still very good, and his eyes flashed...This is his last chance for the team.

Since it is a chance, Anthony Davis has to work hard to show his ability! He gave the team a chance, his own chance, must rely on strength to fight for it!

...

After the players and coaches on both sides greeted each other, the championship ring award ceremony began.

After the staff made the arrangement, the lights on the spot dimmed.

This year, the technology of the Grizzlies Arena has been updated. The soft screen that surrounds the big screen 360 degrees lights up, and it starts to show the highlights and classic moments of the Grizzlies last season. With the video, fans on-site There were cheers.

In the end, it was Sun Ce who announced in advance that his goal for the new season was to create a dynasty after winning the away game last season.

"Let's do it again!"

With Sun Ce's dynasty declaration, the cheers of the fans on the scene reached a boiling point!

Next, Chris Wallace, on behalf of the team's usually unreliable boss, thanked the fans and looked forward to the new season.

Then the championship ring was awarded. At this time, the boss Robert Pella came out, sending the ring and home opener to win the championship trophy. He will not miss this scene...

A series of pre-season activities ended. At 7:58 in the evening, the two teams started on the court under the sign of the referee.

The Grizzlies sent a combination of Sun Ce, Brogdon, Klay Thompson, Paul George and Gobert.

The Pelicans sent a combination of Irving, Yiwan Moore, Solomon Hill, Anthony Davis, and Valanciunas.

Valanciunas, who was envious of the team that had been on the opposite side for half a season and won the championship again, saw Sun Ce put on his hand strap and armguards, and then walked to the middle circle. He was taken aback... Looking at the opposing lineup, Sun Ce and Anthony Davis face up tonight?

Anthony Davis regrets that he knew he would jump the ball!

But it was too late to regret. At this time, running to let Valanciunas get out of the way, it was too shameful for the players who jumped on both sides.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game and threw the ball into the air. Sun Ce overpowered Valanciunas to win the jump ball amidst the cheers of the fans at the scene. The Grizzlies attacked!

Finally, he was able to win the jump ball happily. Although Sun Ce is not as good as those sporty centers, his jump ball winning percentage is better than half, unlike the starting centers of these years.

Gobert listened to the cheers... He was in love with each other, but people are incomparable. In the past two years, he has been the starting center next to Sun Ce. He has been playing next to Sun Ce for three years. He knows how much Sun Ce is. Amazingly, before entering the NBA, he never thought that there would be players like Sun Ce, Jordan + Magic? That's it!

Paul George took the ball to the frontcourt. The first goal of the new season must be given to Sun Ce. Paul George passed the ball to Sun Ce, who faces Anthony Davis on the right side of the top arc.

Sun Ce received the ball and made a cross step to the left without hesitation.

I didn't expect Anthony Davis to keep up! Sun Ce turned and leaned against Anthony Davis in a high position on the left, and did not continue to push to the basket. There was Valanciunas guarding the frame. Anthony Davis was chasing behind. Sun Ce knew that he would be caught by jumping in. Pinch.

It’s a rare matchup with Anthony Davis. In the past two seasons, he didn’t need a pick-and-roll for the Pelicans. Sun Ce really didn’t expect that compared to the first and second grades, Anthony Davis’s defensive progress can be used. Feiyue to describe! This season the center's first defense position does not seem to be a joke in people's eyes anymore.

However, when Sun Ce, who was leaning on Anthony Davis, looked sideways on Anthony Davis’ defense, he suddenly noticed a problem. He didn’t pay much attention before, but now he suddenly realized that Anthony Day was only one or two centimeters taller than him. Weiss, it seems to have jumped over this summer, using his Sun as a reference, this guy is at least 198 cm to two meters!

As expected to be called the most potential center in the league today, this guy is only 23 years old now! There is still a gap between Griffin and Griffin in terms of strength, but young! Although the explosiveness and jumping are not as good as Griffin, but the movement speed is better. The key is this defense. The ability to defend against big and small is absolutely perfect. In this era, it is no problem to defend the 3-5 position. There is a suitable center at the 1-2 position. Cooperation is also very powerful... Really feel the progress of Anthony Davis, Sun Ce discovered that the media and experts in the original time and space touted Anthony Davis is not unreasonable. This is really a use of five or six. Young talents are superstars who won't lose in exchange for them!

These thoughts were fleeting. Sun Ce kept observing the running position of his teammates. Paul George used the Klay Thompson pick and roll to cut in from the center. Sun Ce quickly grabbed the ball and passed it from behind to the center. Paul George cut into a reasonable collision zone. After receiving the ball, he has the advantage in the position competition with Relying Wan Moore, but Paul George has just received the ball outside the reasonable collision zone. Anthony Davis, who has judged Sun Ce's passing intention, has made up. In place.

However, Paul George has a strong sense of organizing offense, and he is always observing the surroundings by relying on his visual advantage. This point, in the past few years, he has focused on development, and he has not lost to Sun Ce, who focuses on organizing offense. In Anthony- After Davis made up the defense, Paul George dropped the ball to the left of the basket.

Valanciunas under the basket was about to get close to Gobert, but he saw Gobert quickly put aside. Valanciunas reacted instantly and avoided in time. Then he saw Sun Ce rushing in from the middle distance and jumping. Catch the ball in the air, slip across the basket from the left side of the three-second zone, slam the ball into the basket with both hands back!

"Phenotype Level 4" trigger!

Compared with last season, Sun Ce has a better grasp of the timing of dunks this season!

This time the dunk, the fans on the spot cheered wildly; Klay Thompson was heartbroken, why is the bounce gap getting bigger and bigger?

The Grizzlies started off beautifully this time, but then Anthony Davis' offense is equally beautiful! Cut into the low layup that held Sun Ce, as agile as a small forward, and hit the rebound with a low-handed layup that was even better than Gobert's wingspan.

It is too difficult for Sun Ce to defend against Anthony Davis alone. The weight advantage is gone, and the opponent's advantage in height and wingspan is more obvious. Sun Ce has no choice but to increase the confrontation with the opponent.

However, the trouble for the Grizzlies in the start is not just that Anthony Davis can’t prevent it, but also that the offensive coordination of their new lineup has gradually stagnated, mainly because one of the outside holding points. Gordon.

Rao is Brogdon with strong combat power and adaptability. The first time he played a formal game, he was still a little confused. Every time the ball was in his hands, the whole offensive rotation stopped. Because of the tension, there was no chance in a moment. Grasp it!

The overall strength of the Pelicans is not very strong, but it is also a team in the Western Conference playoffs. The Western Conference has no underdogs, and the Pelicans can have the strength of the Western Conference playoffs. They rely on their starting, Anthony Day. Weiss, Yiwan Moore, Solomon Hill, Valanciunas, Owen, this lineup is not bad defensively, they are just hollowed out from the bench.

The starting lineup lacked Aldridge and became Brogdon~www.wuxiaspot.com~ For the first time with this starting lineup, the Grizzlies attacked Sun Ce and Paul-George's duo in the first game. Their offensive efficiency was very good. low.

Moreover, this lineup lacks the tonnage of the inside line, and Randolph is missing this point in the basket. In the face of Anthony Davis, who has gained weight and improved skills this summer, he really can't help it.

Everything else is fine, that is Anthony Davis!

Anthony Davis started with full offense and defense, tried his best. I don’t know that he thought he was playing in the finals, but he really did it. He showed his ability to help the ball in two consecutive defending champions. The team started 12-6 and stopped the Grizzlies!

Entering the timeout, coach Hollins began to change, and the opening offense stopped, so the offense must be opened first, and the defense will not be discussed.

A combination of Sun Ce, Carter, Klay Thompson, Nance Jr. and Yi Jianlian played.

Coach Hollins is not the kind of pedantic coach. He only played for more than 4 minutes. It is still a long time and slowly adjusts. In any era, the team with the higher score wins.

It's just that he really thought that the big and four small lineups could play, and the defensive end could not prevent the fateful Anthony Davis. This was no way, but the offensive end was indeed a big problem!

Listening to the rotation of coach Hollins, Brogdon made his debut on the regular season stage for the first time and made his debut. The result was messed up and his mood was very depressed.

At this time, Brogdon was slapped on the head and turned around to see that it was Sun Ce.

"Don't be discouraged, you are still a rookie, look at how the old players play, remember the pitcher's position, remember when to pass and when to come by yourself, believe me, you are the best rookie this year! I said of!"
