God of NBA point guards

Chapter 596 Damn guy, be careful that Yao will steal your position in the future.

The Kings have Chris Webber, Peja, Divac, as well as a bunch of good role players such as Doug Christie, Bobby Jackson, Hedo Turkoglu, etc., and they also traded White Chocolate Jason Williams from the Grizzlies Here comes the white devil Mike Bibby, whose strength has steadily improved. Last season, he ranked fourth in the Western Conference. This season, he is highly anticipated by the media.

At almost eight o'clock, everyone in the visiting team's locker room had finished dressing up, and it was almost time to announce the starting lineup.

Arenas also wants to start, but he knows it's impossible. He plays point guard. Should he let the Iron Fist King give up the starting spot to him?He would never have dreamed of it.

So I feel a bit bad. Will I have to play as a substitute in the future and have no chance to start?However, he feels that he can try to grab the starting position at No. [-] in the future.

Rashard Lewis's mood is very complicated. For two seasons, he has been able to start the regular season. Last season, he started more games, as many as 74 games, but he was not trusted once he entered the playoffs, which made him very distressed. .

His rookie contract was US$58 for two years, and the second contract was US$7 million for seven years. He thought of leaving, and his agent also advised him so. After all, he had a championship, and he needed more opportunities. Not sitting on the bench as soon as the playoffs come.

At this time Nate McMillan came in, looked at everyone, and then said: "Guys, now I announce the starting lineup for tonight."

"No. [-], Ben Wallace. No. [-], Rashard Lewis..."

Lewis was not excited when he heard his name being called.

"No. [-], Bowen."

Bowen smiled when he heard his name.

Contrary to Bowen, Desmond Mason, the 00th pick in the first round of 17, was a little disappointed. He did not get the starting position and could not compete for an undrafted pick. He was very unwilling because his offense was much better than Bowen.

“No. [-] Corey Maggette.”

After hearing his name, Corey Maggette was not excited. If he doesn't start at the second position, who will start? The team doesn't have a second shooting guard at all, and he is the only one.

Arenas looked around at his teammates in the locker room. Corey Maggette actually didn't have a competitor. He was the only shooting guard, not even a substitute. During the preseason games, he was the one playing for Maggette. As a substitute, he determined in his heart that he must strengthen his training and strive to steal the starting position at the second position. He didn't believe that he couldn't play shooting guard. Wasn't he just a few centimeters shorter?
Even Corey Maggette plays a small forward. Because he is only 198 centimeters tall, he plays the second position. However, as a shooting guard, Maggette still plays the small forward style and does not have three-pointers. , and his shooting is not good, so it is not that he has no chance, and he has a great chance.

As the game approaches, the system also issues season tasks for this season.

"If the host completes the second three consecutive championships and wins the MVP and FMVP consecutively, it will be rewarded with [-]% enhanced kidney function."

"Ha ha!"

Guessing correctly is the best reward.

As professional athletes, high-intensity training and competitions consume a lot of their bodies. Except for a few extremely talented people, 90.00% of athletes age faster than ordinary people after retirement.

The system strengthens his heart, lungs, and kidney functions through rewards, and his ability to resist injuries is at full level, which means that after he retires, he should not age as quickly as other athletes.

At eight o'clock, the two sides announced the starting list.

SuperSonics: Ben Wallace, Lewis, Bowen, Corey Maggette, Zhou Quan
Kings: Divac, Scott Pollard, Peja Stojakovic, Doug Christie, Mike Bibby

The game was broadcast live nationwide on TNT, with Barkley and Kenny Smith as commentators.

Kenny Smith said: "The SuperSonics' lineup has not changed much. They left two irrelevant veterans with basic salaries and brought in two meat shield centers and a rookie at the end of the first round. There is no big change in strength.

But with the presence of the Iron Fist King, the SuperSonics are still the most popular team to win the championship in the new season, even the only team in the league.

If the Sonics successfully defend their title again, it will be the second three-peat dynasty, the only one in the league, and the Iron Fist King should also reach the No. 1 position in league history. "

"Russell has [-] championships, including eight consecutive championships. If the Iron Fist King wants to surpass Russell's historical status, he must win eight consecutive championships." Barkley immediately retorted.

"Eight……"

Kenny Smith opened his mouth, then closed it.

He understands very well that the Iron Fist King is not an American and will be naturally at a disadvantage when competing for the honor of being No. 1 in history. That is to say, unless the Iron Fist King achieves a record that shuts up everyone, no one will say anything. Four, otherwise someone will definitely find fault, just like guys like Barkley.

In the CCTV commentary box, it was the first time to explain the NBA, and it was a live commentary. Yu Jia was very nervous, even very nervous. His lips were trembling, and his hands and feet were trembling.

Zhang Lili glanced at Yu Jia and said: "Dear viewers, we meet again. The new NBA season is about to begin. Everyone is welcome to watch this game.

Oh, by the way, let me introduce a new friend to you. He is our new NBA commentator Yu Jia from CCTV.Come on, Yu Jia, say hello to everyone. "

Seeing that Yu Jia didn't respond, he kicked Yu Jia from below. Only then did Yu Jia react and said hurriedly, "Big, good evening, everyone. I am, Yu... Jia."

"Yu Jia was so excited. It was the first time to commentate on a game, haha! I think it was the same way when I was commentating on a game for the first time. Not long after I retired, I was still sitting in the CCTV live broadcast room as a guest basketball commentator, and Song Shixiong We have been partners with teachers for more than 20 years in a flash." Zhang Li said with a smile.

"Indeed, yes, I'm very excited. I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that I would be able to come to the United States to commentate on the King of Iron Fist game. I'm so happy!"

Yu Jia said that after opening the door, the situation became much better.

After talking for a while, Zhang Lili said: "The Bulls also have a game tonight, playing the Pacers at home. I don't know if Yao Min will have a chance to play and what kind of performance he can perform. As the person with the highest draft pick in the country, Yao's performance is very exciting. ah!"

In this game, the Kings lacked core Chris Webber, so Zhou Quan clocked in three quarters and scored 25 points, 14 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks. He prevented the White Devils from making 10 of 2 shots and only sent out two assists. He led the team to achieve the goal. A good start.

That night, the Bulls' opening game was against the Pacers at home.Before eight o'clock, the Bulls head coach announced the starting lineup. Yao Min came off the bench and the starting center was Brad Miller.

After the starting lineup was announced, the substitutes got up to warm up when Elton Brand went to the bathroom.

Charles Oakley joined the Bulls as a free agent this season. He glanced at Brand's back, pulled Yao Min into the corner as he was about to leave, and whispered:
"Boy, you know, the management was going to trade Brand and use him for the Clippers' No. [-] pick, Tyson Chandler."

"..."

Dayao's English is not bad. After understanding this sentence, he couldn't help but be very surprised. Brand is the No. [-] pick, and the Bulls are willing to trade him?

Oakley whispered again: "Now you understand your situation. If you can't play here, you can't help the team win more wins, or your performance is not as good as Tyson Chandler, in two seasons at most, you Will also be traded.”

Yao Min nodded muffledly. He didn't understand why Oakley told him this. Could it be because of Brother Zhou?
His agent, Mr. Zhang, had given him some information about his teammates. He knew that Oakley was one of the four villains and had had conflicts and fights with Brother Zhou.

Originally he was a little worried that Oakley would cause trouble for him, but now he was a little surprised.

"Yao, go warm up." At this time, Brad Miller waved and shouted.

He was a little anxious when he saw Oakley calling Yao Min to the corner, because the Iron Fist King had contacted him and asked him to take care of Yao Min. He was afraid that Oakley would cause trouble for Yao Min. Oakley had been beaten by the Iron Fist King. , so he shouted in a hurry.

In fact, Oakley didn't want to cause trouble for Yao Min. Instead, because of Ewing and Ben, he wanted to betray the Iron Fist King and take the initiative to take care of the Iron Fist King's compatriots.

"Ah, here we come." Dayao quickly replied.

After the substitutes went out, Oakley sat down next to Brad Miller and said to him: "Boy, what are you worried about?"

Brad Miller had been with Zhou Quan and was not afraid of Oakley at all. Although he was honest, he also had a temper and was a man who dared to take action. He said coldly: "Charles, the Iron Fist King told me to take care of him." Yao, don’t take advantage of him.”

Oakley's face twitched and he said angrily: "Fake Oil, which of your eyes saw me touching him?"

"That's best," Miller said.

Oakley was very unhappy and cursed: "Damn guy, be careful that Yao will steal your position in the future."

Brad Miller shrugged and said: "It's not like there's no team that wants me, but it really doesn't work out. I'll go back to the SuperSonics and join forces with Ben Wallace to help the Iron Fist King win a few championships."

"You idiot, you are my little brother, you have been eating and drinking from me before joining the league." Oakley cursed angrily.

"Really?"

Brad Miller was startled, and then he realized that Oakley really didn't look like he was causing trouble for Yao just now. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, Charles."

"I'm sorry!" Oakley cursed.

Soon after starting the game, Reggie Miller walked up to Yao Min, stretched out his hand to him, and said: "Hey, rookie, how are you? I am an alumnus of the Iron Fist King at UCLA and also his good friend, Reggie Miller , you can call me Reggie.”

"Hello, Reggie?" Dayao quickly leaned over and held Reggie Miller's hand, with a smile on his face.

"If someone bullies you, just call him Iron Fist King, you know?" Reggie Miller said after leaving.

"I thought you asked me to tell you your name." The honest Dayao complained in his heart.

这场比赛姚民替补出场25分钟，面对小奥尼尔，6投2中，2罚2中，得到了6分8篮板1助攻2犯规。

His performance was average and he didn't play well offensively, but his rebounding was okay and he made no mistakes. The Bulls did not jump to conclusions about his performance.

After the game, he received a call from Zhou Quan, who had also just finished the game.

"How's the data?"

"Brother, just average..."

After hearing Dayao's statistics, Zhou Quan encouraged: "It's okay, the rebounds are good, keep working hard. This is the first game, a little nervous, right? There's nothing nervous, you can win even the Dream Team [-], and Mourning These top centers have also played, so it’s nothing special.”

"I know, brother, I will try my best."

"Strive to get the starting position as soon as possible. Compared to Brad Miller, the Bulls definitely want you to play the main position. This is why they chose you. If you can't grab the starting position, the Bulls management will be very disappointed and will trade you sooner or later. .So as long as you perform, they will definitely support you, train you, and give you more opportunities."

"Ah."

It was also the opening game, and the Wizards' game attracted more attention than the Bulls. One was the first show of Jordan's comeback, and the other was the first show of Kwame Brown, the No. [-] pick selected by Jordan himself.

Jordan started for 37 minutes in the opening game. He made 21 of 7 shots, a shooting percentage of 33.3%, 3 of 0 three-pointers, and 6 of 5 free throws. He scored 19 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals, 3 turnovers, and 3 fouls. His performance was outstanding. It's not great, but it was his first game after retiring for more than three years, and the media spoke highly of his performance.

Kwame Brown, another focus of attention, came on in the second and final quarters. He played 12 minutes, made 2 of 1 shots, 1 of 0 free throw, scored 2 points, 3 rebounds, 3 blocks, 1 turnover and 2 fouls. Apart from blocks, there was nothing else. The outstanding performance was far from the expectations of the media and fans for the No. [-] pick. He was questioned by the media immediately after the game.

In this game, the Wizards also lost the opening game by two points with a score of 91:93.
