MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 1027 There is only one rose!

   Chapter 1027 1027. There is only one rose!

  Obviously playing against a 'new' team, but the opponent gave the Trail Blazers players the feeling that nothing changed except that the jerseys changed from green to white, and the team name changed from Sonics to Thunder.

   "Oklahoma City Thunder...founded in 2008...one championship..."

   Liu Xiu looked at the team information on the opposite side and didn't know where to complain for a while.

   Judging by the appearance of the Thunder, this season will continue to be poor.

   Ibaka has not entered the NBA yet, and he still has a one-year contract with the La Liga Manresa team. The liquidated damages are 6 million dollars. His rookie contract is not so much before tax.

Except for Rose and Durant, Liu Xiu glanced at the opposite side, and only Krstic, Nick Collison, and Desmond Mason are good. people.

   Desmond Mason was acquired by the Thunder in exchange for Ridnour, who was unwilling to move to Oklahoma City with the team.

  Mason, on the other hand, has really become a painter. When he turned 30 last season, his state collapsed immediately.

   But not because of injuries, he was healthy and played more than 75 games in each of the first 7 years of his career.

  He spent a lot of time last year drawing and participating in art exhibitions.

  Portland’s Rose Charity Art Exhibition, Mason participated in. His painting "Lovers and Fire" was sold at a high price of 550,000 US dollars and donated to the Children's Welfare Fund.

   Last season's slam dunk contest, Beast's "Superman Slam Dunk" and Liu Xiu's "Slam Dunk King" were all drawn by Mason. They were acquired by the NBA at the auction and are now hung in the NBA headquarters.

   Liu Xiu wanted to buy back the latter pair, but was rejected by the NBA...

   This is not the first time the NBA has acquired Mason's paintings. In the past 8 years, the NBA headquarters has acquired 11 of his paintings, with a total value of more than 3 million US dollars.

  Mason, who is obsessed with art, has changed from an outstanding player with first-class offense and excellent defense to a garbage contract, and is now being sold to the Thunder.

The reason why the Thunder traded Ridnor for him was simply because he was in his contract year and could clear up space or be traded to a team that wanted to clear up space in the middle of the season. A late first-round pick.

   After a while, when the game was about to start, Liu Xiu received a system prompt to copy the talent.

  “…

Teammate: Goran Dragic, match rate 65%, characteristic conversion talent: long drive, bonus effect: when the host maintains a fast speed and enters the inside attack frame, strength +1, layup +1, when encountering inside confrontation , the resistance ability is slightly improved.

   Opponent: Derek Rose, match rate 75%, characteristic conversion talent: Shuttle, bonus effect: When the host obtains the opportunity to continue to break through by changing direction during the breakthrough process, start again and start at the fastest speed. "

  Ross's...comparatively speaking, Liu Xiu prefers Dragic's characteristics.

   Rose's features look like they don't want knees and ankles anymore.

   The talent of 'Shuttle' is very powerful, but sometimes you can't use it, because it doesn't fit well with his warden's style of play.

  Due to poor early start speed, he didn't develop skills in the direction of destroying knees and ankles.

  At 8:00 p.m., the first preseason game in Thunder team history begins!

   Thunder starting: Rose, Durant, Mason, Krstic, Nick Collison.

   Trail Blazers starters: Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, Hill, Randolph, Kwame Brown.

  Kwame Brown leaps high and takes the ball away from Kostic's head, and the Trail Blazers go first! The whole team is pressing!

   Liu Xiu advanced quickly, and after passing the middle circle, the speed reached the fastest speed, and rushed to the three-point line.

  The rest of the Thunder team saw Liu Xiu's speed and gave up immediately. This is something they can't defend against... But there is one person who doesn't!

  Ross bravely pressed towards Liu Xiu. With his extreme lateral movement ability, he successfully blocked Liu Xiu..."Pa"..."Pa"...

   First the sound of muscles fighting, then the sound of Rose falling to the floor...

Liu Xiu was hindered a bit, but not too much. He rushed into the inside and leaped high, the 'flying man' was triggered, and the dunk bounced +5. He took off with all his strength and his head surpassed the basket, and he dunked the ball with a tomahawk style Hit the hoop!

  The audience is boiling!

   Rose, who got up from the floor, ignored the pain, looked at Liu Xiu who had landed, and swallowed his saliva.

  This is too horizontal!

   When he was hit, he thought he was hit by a car!

   After a confrontation like this, this guy can dunk over the frame!

   Wait, here he comes!

  He came towards me!

  What is he going to do? !!!∑(Дノ)ノ

   A gentle voice came—"Rookie, you are blocking my way."

  Ross looked at the smiling warden, and quickly stepped aside. It turned out that he was going to retreat...

etc!

   With such a wide court, do you have to retreat from the small area where he is standing?

Bullying!

  ヾ(｀Д)彡

   Switching offense and defense, an angry Rose received the serve and quickly advanced halfway...then stopped two meters away from the three-point line.

  Sexy Rose is hot online—the speed of the twin towers is too slow!

   Liu Xiu, who was one step inside the top arc, stood straight on his hips, and read the player detection reports of Krstic and Nick Collison... two centers with a speed of more than 70, the speed of the little giant is faster than these two.

  But the most genius thing about the little giant is that he is more than ten centimeters taller than ordinary center forwards, but has a speed that exceeds the average center forward.

  The speed of these two people is obviously below the average line.

   But this pair of twin towers also has advantages-both can shoot and pass.

   When the two were close to the three-point line, Liu Xiu lowered his focus again and devoted himself to defense.

   It’s the first game of the new season. Defense against the No. 1 pick in the new division. Let’s see how much your single defense has improved.

  Ross has been paying attention to Liu Xiu's actions, and is extremely angry!

   Waiting for the twin towers to enter the three-point line and pull away to both sides, Ross immediately started to change direction and break through... The warden is pressing up!

  Ross withdraws a step and pulls to change direction. Liu Xiu predicts it and sticks to Rose. Rose fights and retreats, changes direction continuously, and finally seizes the opportunity to break through the space by dribbling under the crotch.

   But just as Rose slapped the ball hard to start a breakthrough, Liu Xiu, who was about to be passed, turned around and reached for the ball... First, he slapped Rose hard and took away the fast bouncing ball!

  Ross changed directions continuously under Liu Xiu's super strong confrontation. This wave of offensive energy wasted too much, and he was a bit slower, but Liu Xiu seized the opportunity to steal it!

Liu Xiuqi counterattacked, and Ross quickly turned around to chase, but Liu Xiu, who relied on his strong body and predictive defense, consumed much less energy than Ross. They were also separated by Liu Xiu's arms.

   Originally just wanted to counterattack for a layup, but Rose stuck to the defense... Liu Xiu slowed down after entering the three-point line.

  Rose, who was exhausted for a short time and couldn't keep up with Liu Xiu's footsteps, was ready to give up his defense. He became excited again, and actively pressed towards Liu Xiu, interfering with Liu Xiu's attack.

  The two confronted each other and came to the basket. Just when Rose was ready to interfere with Liu Xiu's layup, a completely irresistible force came...

  Liu Xiu stepped on the arc of the reasonable collision zone and overturned Rose who was pressing him, pulled the green onion on the dry land, jumped high, and smashed the ball into the basket heavily!

  The referee blew his whistle, Rose blocked the foul, Liu Xiu's goal was valid, and he got an extra penalty!

   Rose, who fell down again, looked at Liu Xiu who fell, and woke up suddenly.

  He was as stunned just now, he actually felt that he restrained the warden's counterattack! He actually felt that he stuck to and held the warden's attack frame!

   And the reason why he had such an illusion was because this man did it on purpose!

   It's clear that I want to bully him!

  Why? He never messed with this guy!

  At this time, the fans near the baseline shouted at Rose in unison: "Rookie, there is only one Rose in the NBA!"

  …

  In the first round of the opening round, Xinke's No. 1 pick was hanged three times on both offense and defense.

  Durant is fortunate that he is not a small guard. After the warden participated in the Olympics and won the world championship, he has made considerable improvement on the defensive end.

  As an offensive genius, Durant saw that Liu Xiu added Kobe's outside pressing skills and dog-skin-like defensive attitude to Liu Xiu's defense.

  He feels that his new teammate is really miserable, just because the surname is 'Rose', he was bullied so badly...

   After bullying Rose in the first round, Liu Xiu stopped focusing on the rookie No. 1 pick.

Rose, who has never played a real 'adult game', is too weak and has too little experience in the game. She has not even started to attack in singles, and she can be consumed to that extent. The key is that she hasn't noticed... The main reason is that the team is busy now, the team's affairs are important, and there will be opportunities to bully in the future.

  As the game progressed, the Thunder found that the Trail Blazers were not quite what they expected.

   What about the Trail Blazers going to fight after D'Antoni was introduced?

  The promised Trail Blazers went astray?

Indeed, the pace of the Trail Blazers has improved a lot, and the offensive speed has improved significantly compared to last season. The flank penetration + top arc three-point opportunity creation + sideline response movement... are all better, so good that Durant said in his heart Can't beat it.

   But it is not running and bombing, but a fast-paced offensive and defensive battle.

  There are not many fast breaks, and fast breaks are only started when there is a counterattack opportunity. If there is no counterattack opportunity, the Trail Blazers will choose to fall into positional warfare and play brisk positional warfare to cooperate.

   More things, the Thunder players can't feel it.

The Trail Blazers' "organized and disciplined" style of play, although it was only the first actual game, was not something the Thunder could handle. They were pulled away after only two or three points, and entered a game of "everyone bullying Little Rose together" middle.

The coaching staff of the Trail Blazers can't emphasize the need to play well. The opponent is a bit weaker, and the opponent has no offensive and defensive system at all in order to play badly + cultivate two talents. ; The defensive end is even better, a posture of letting you ask for it.

  Anyway, judging from the cooperation in the first half of the first quarter, they played well, which proved that they can fight in actual combat. More will be left to the later games for inspection.

  This game should be used to let the players get familiar with the game again. Seeing that the players are so happy to bully the new champion, the coaches are also very happy. The team atmosphere is very good.

   At 9:55 p.m., the abuse time ended, and the Trail Blazers beat the Thunder 116 to 95, winning their first preseason victory.

  Durant played 39 minutes, made 9 of 22 shots, scored 27 points, and performed well.

  Ross is miserable...

   Played 31 minutes, 1 of 8 shots, 4 of 6 free throws, 6 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 4 turnovers.

  7 strikes, 3 times were capped.

  I didn’t know, I thought Ross was the apprentice of the mine bandit leader and the warden.

  But the Fox Sports commentator who broadcast this preseason game spoke highly of Rose—good physical talent, strong ability to resist pressure, and tough personality.

  Rose retired early due to injuries in the Las Vegas Summer League and the Orlando Summer League, and his performance was average. Even though he was the 'beaten champion', he was looked down upon by the major media.

  Tonight he showed very strong resilience. He was bullied like that, but he didn't give up. It reminded the commentator of Durant last season.

  Durant was also targeted when he played against the Trail Blazers, but he couldn't beat him. He threw more than 30 throws in a single game and scored more than 20 points.

  …

   On the second day, the Trail Blazers continued training.

  The training this morning is mainly defensive, and what is going on is the position movement training that integrates defense switching, pinching, and supplementary defense.

  Bu Shuai directed the training, while the vice president and other members of the coaching staff watched from the sidelines.

  Seeing the skillful movement of some players, the coach said: "In last night's game, we did a good job defending."

The vice president responded: "Well, the offense still doesn't show anything, but our fast-paced retreat, positioning, and pressing defense are much better than last year. The progress of the defensive system is faster than the offense... Mike, is it not Blame you, you're building an offense that never existed before, starting from scratch, it's going to be harder, it's okay, we have time."

  Hearing this, the red face with a mustache began to fade.

   I still know that it is difficult for him!

   He is really difficult!

  If it is just to build an offensive system, even if he is required to come up with a complete running and bombing tactic, it will not take that long.

  The key is that the team must not only guarantee defense, but also want to play offense. The requirements for the lineup are too high!

   But even if they spend money like water, the lineup does not mean that everyone can attack and defend well. Therefore, under the premise that the team is based on defense, he can only create fast offensive tactics based on the existing lineup.

   It is more difficult... But it is good to have money, even if it is difficult, it is still feasible, and there are several bargaining chips that can be used for trading, as long as there are not enough people to trade.

   Just, a precious experimental game wasted last night.

  Moustache felt that the Thunder team was too annoying, how could it be so weak!

  They don't need to play any tactics, and they can push the Thunder evenly by relying on the lineup. The test effect of the offensive system last night is basically zero.

Colleagues just mentioned last night's game in passing, and didn't think as much as Moustache, the vice president continued: "Grant is really surprising, the antique record player in my house seems to be moved by our congressmen. "

The coach laughed: "Haha, did you really agree to bet with him? Boss, he is not a gambler. He must be sure to bet with you on this kind of thing... No, you have been cheated by him again." Taste."

"He tempted me with the first version of Elvis Presley's disc..." The vice president's expression was desperate for a moment, but he immediately adjusted back, "Let's not talk about this, maybe Grant will be the one who adapts to the new system the fastest in our frontcourt. We don’t need to worry about both offense and defense...Mike, don’t be so anxious, our progress is already much faster than expected. At first, we thought that the current progress would not come until the end of the preseason.”

  The mustache began to swell again, and the face faded again.

  What can he do? Every time he adjusts, the warden 'adapts in seconds', he's under a lot of pressure, okay?

  However, what hurts him more is 2003... If the Suns traded Marbury to the Knicks for the No.

   After getting in touch with him during this period, Mustache found that the warden's wife is too suitable for beating away!

   After the system is established, give the warden a small treat?

  Mustache's eyes lit up at the thought.

  However, he quickly suppressed his excitement. If he let his colleagues know that he wanted to 'lead' the warden, he might be beaten to death.
