Chapter 97

The Los Angeles Lakers arrived at the arena two hours early, but the owner of the arena was a little late.

It seems that the driver was a little confused and went the wrong way.

Is there anything more outrageous than this?

If it is written as a novel, no one will believe it, right?
This made Embiid, who was already nervous, dumbfounded. TMD still has such a pre-match meal, what is this all about!

And just when the 76ers entered the arena together, Embiid walked at the end alone, looking a little bad.

He should come, he will always come.

Be brave enough to face yourself now!

The super urban Los Angeles star wearing the No. 8 jersey is currently warming up in the arena.

The team's second-year rookie Mike Way, who saw Embiid's thoughts, took the initiative to help him take the backpack, and patted him on the shoulder to encourage him: "Joel, don't worry, we will go all out today to help you defeat that hateful guy!"

"Then what if you are defeated by the opponent?" Embiid said helplessly.

At least from the record ranking point of view, the Lakers are now ranked sixth in the West, which is much better than the third-to-last in the East.

McAway looked at Embiid in surprise, why is this kid so pessimistic today?

"The opposite side is also a youth army, and we are fighting at home, so we have a better chance of winning!"

McAway has been feeling more and more distressed about Embiid recently, because the kid's training is so crazy that he is almost bewildered.

"It doesn't matter, no matter what, I will definitely adjust myself as soon as possible. Today, I will definitely play some decent things in the paint."

Thinking of his performance in the last game, Embiid felt angina.

too much.
Recently, there seems to be something wrong with me.

However, under the comfort of McAway, Embiid's mood is not so bad.

Heh, come on, Sue, let me see how amazing you are, the No. [-] player on the rookie list!
After changing the equipment and warming up before the game, Su Mu finally met Embiid.

Compared with him before, Embiid's small cropped hair has grown some hair, and his complexion looks a little haggard, and he has no spirit at all in college.

Embiid, wearing the No. 21 jersey, is the most conspicuous in this team. The core team of the 76ers in the future is an inside big man that the management has high hopes for. He has strong offensive skills and can also play well on the defensive end. Restrict opponents, no matter from which angle, Embiid's future is bright!

However, Embiid is still not the star player of this team at this stage.

Because of McAway's appearance, he stole everyone's attention.

A man who was at his peak when he debuted, but his journey to the NBA was not as smooth as he had imagined.

McAway's talent is visible to the naked eye. He is an extremely rare tall point guard. He has a height of 1.98 meters, a wingspan of 2.01 meters, and excellent athletic ability. He can jump up to 1.04 meters in run-up. There is no disadvantage in the position.

In the first year of his career, McAway showed his advantages in physical talent to the fullest. In his first show, he surrendered a "quasi" with 1 points, 22 rebounds, 7 assists and 12 steals in front of the Heat's Big Three. In NBA history, no rookie has ever played such a comprehensive performance in the first game of his career. Even Jordan, James, and Durant have never done it. After 9 games, McAway is still brave, scoring 69+ 24 times, and getting double-doubles 20 times. Except for February, he won the best rookie of the month.

After "Magic" Johnson and Robertson, the first rookie to average at least 16 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists per game, and also the first three (points, rebounds, assists) technical statistics in the past 38 years in the NBA, all The first rookie, after the end of the season, McAway also won the best rookie with an overwhelming advantage.

Whether it is data or records, they are telling the outside world: McAway is very likely to become the next superstar point guard.

However, who would have thought that this kid's peak experience card is only 70 short games. Before the second season is over, he has been excluded from the future development plan by the 76ers. , but McAway is not worried about work, the Bucks, Bulls, Hornets, Rockets, Magic, they are all confident that they can train McAway well, but after 7 years, he has not made any progress except for a little bit of weakening. Change.

Regarding the fall of McAway, many people think it is due to injuries, but in fact, what really made the 76ers decide to give up is McAway's rebellious character. It has to be admitted that he is indeed a piece of jade in the rough. However, the advantages and disadvantages are too obvious, and it must be carefully crafted to become a priceless treasure. The 76ers have the intention to do so, but McAway does not cooperate. No matter what tactics coach Brown arranges, as long as the ball reaches McAway. Always do what you want with the ball.

Poor shot selection, even though he scored a lot, but his true shooting percentage in the first two years of his career could not even reach 2%, making him one of the least efficient players in the league.

Passing the ball carelessly, even though he has a lot of assists, his turnover rate is also not low. He is one of the worst 20 players in the league almost every year, and his assist-to-turnover ratio is only about 1.7;

So, when the ball is concentrated in the hands of this level of organizer, can you still expect the team's offensive efficiency to be high?
When McAway is on the court, the team always loses a lot of points per 14 rounds on the offensive end. For example, in the 15-6.8 season, it will score 15 points less, in the 16-0.9 season, it will score 16 points less, and in the 17-1.1 season , will be 17 points less, 18 points less in the 4.3-18 season, and 19 points less in the 16.2-[-] season.
In the small ball era, the emphasis is on perimeter efficiency. When a point guard has been unable to improve his shooting level for so many years, the career of McAway is the epitome of his skills and personality.

Although after joining the Magic, he increased some team value by reducing active offense, and won a two-year "long contract", but the ankle injury that followed, like a critical illness notice, killed McAway's continued stay. In league fantasy, he hasn't been back on the court since.

Waking up too late?

Maybe so, but players who have really experienced the peak, wanting them to get down from that position and asking them to correct their mentality is much more difficult than cultivating a star.

"Su, aren't you going to say hello to your little brother?" Aaron Gordon poked Su Mu and asked curiously.

"No need, go and say hello to him now, he will think I'm provoking him."

You must know that Embiid's eyes have been wandering in the Lakers' half court just now when Su Mu is warming up for shooting.

Thinking of Embiid's irritable mood, Su Mu felt that once he walked over, this aircraft carrier of friendship would sink completely!
Embiid's petty character is completely inversely proportional to his huge body, and he burst into tears at every turn. Who can resist this shit?
The lofty words of the two when they graduated, Su Mu is going further and further on this road, while Embiid seems to be a little behind.

Although the friendship between the two has been fully drawn, the problem of personal self-esteem has nothing to do with the friendship. Brothers are still clear about accounts, not to mention that this is in competitive sports, who doesn't want to win.

On the other side, Embiid naturally discovered the scene of Su Mu talking and laughing with Aaron Gordon. Now he is in a complicated mood.

On the one hand, he didn't want Su Mu to come over to say hello to him, but on the other hand, he felt that Su Mu was a bit uninteresting.

Not interesting enough!
What a shame!

Looking at the basketball in his hand, Embiid threw the ball out bitterly.

Tonight, I will let you understand what is three days away, you should look at it with admiration!

As the night wore on, so did the Sixers crowd at Wachovia Center.

There were no big-name celebrities, but in the audience in the front row, Su Mu saw that familiar figure.

Kendall Jenner, why is she here again?
European and American women are generally more courageous. Although Jenna is just an adult, she still boldly expresses her feelings to Su Mu.

That pair of charming eyes stayed on Su Mu's body all the time, staring intently at the man who was shining on the court.

Of course, Su Mu didn't care about Jenna's series of actions at all. On the court, Su Mu would only focus on basketball wholeheartedly, and generally didn't bother to talk to these coquettish women.

If Su Mu is really hungry and thirsty, the last time Jenna and Kelly surrounded her, Su Mu was very confident that he would be able to take down the sisters together.

but!
The Kardashian family is not vegetarian, and getting involved with them will inevitably cause a mess.

When you are ready to let yourself orgasm, you must also be mentally prepared to be exposed to unlimited exposure.

Wachovia Center Stadium, with the big screen showing tonight's first game, the atmosphere of the whole scene reached a climax in an instant.

"Sure enough, the stickiness of Philadelphia fans is still very high."

76ers: McAway, Jason Richardson, Mbah a Moute, Jakar Sampson and Embiid
Lakers: Jeremy Lin, Bogdanovic, Gordon, Boozer and Su Mu
But from the perspective of the lineup, the Lakers are no different from the stronger side.

McAway is nothing to worry about. A point guard player with extremely low offensive efficiency, so what if he scores points, anyway, it's just like that, and he can't catch Su Mu's eyes.

Jason Richardson, this guy is quite famous. One of the creators of the "Black Eight Miracle" in 2006. He was selected by the Warriors at the fifth place in the first round in 2001. He also played several games in the Warriors. In the 5+ season, despite the team's poor strength, Richardson has not been selected as an All-Star, but Su Mu was deeply impressed by his explosive scoring methods and precise mid-range shooting.

The only pity is that Richardson's defense is bad enough, otherwise, his achievements will definitely be improved to a higher level!

Mbah a Moute, this guy is the crown prince. He is strong enough on the defensive end, but his offense is too hip. A striker who knows nothing. How many teams can give you a place in the small ball era?
As for power forward Sampson, Su Mu doesn't know him, so let's skip it for now.

Then there is the newly promoted insider of the 76ers. Embiid must be prepared today. Su Mu is gearing up and is ready to deal with him!
The inside jump ball, the two face each other for the first time.

"Hey, Joel, has your phone been stolen recently, why is it always turned off?"

Su Mu said jokingly, Embiid did not speak with a gloomy face, don't argue with this guy, this is one of the wise words that Embiid summed up after being bullied for more than a year.

There is no doubt that Su Mu crushed Embiid and helped the Lakers win the first wave of offensive opportunities.

"Come on, give me the ball!"

Su Mu directly asked for a position on the inside, and the two had already prepared for the first round of the contest!
On the court, there is no so-called brotherhood.

The romance between men is not only reflected in the tacit cooperation on the court, the eyes meet, and the fighting spirit of the two skyrockets!

Little Didi who loves mopping the floor, you brother Su Mu will love you well!
Hit back!

In the first round, Su Mu used all his firepower and chose the safest way to attack.

"What, this man doesn't talk about martial arts!"

Embiid worked hard to defend. Although his physical fitness has been growing since entering the NBA, it is very difficult to resist Su Mu's post-up singles.

Pushing into the paint area, the 76ers assisted defense very quickly. Sampson spread his long arms, trying to interfere with Su Mu's offensive line.

In the next second, Su Mu threw the ball directly into the sky.

Boozer responded and completed the attack with a dunk!
Not to mention, partnering with an All-Star power forward really saves a lot of trouble.

Well, if the Houston Rockets had provided Yao Ming with a strong power forward and a reliable substitute earlier, they would not have wasted their youth in those years. Not to mention winning the championship, wouldn't it be more than enough to play in the Western Conference Finals?
In the Sharks East Tour, which team in the Western Conference could limit Yao Ming in one-on-one defense?
Jazz?

Zhuo, you fucking brought Boozer to the Rockets, the Jazz is a scum, and he is not a random thing!
Paying a luxury tax can really make you bankrupt or what?

Seeing the tacit cooperation between Boozer and Su Mu, Embiid's face turned pale.

"Fuck! Isn't this a copy of me and Su Mu in college?"

That's how the two played on the court in Kansas.

Now, if the newcomer replaces the old one, I will become your Mrs. Niu?

Holding back a lot of energy, Embiid's first attack was a bit over the top.

This is Embiid's old problem of carrying explosives to the inside. He doesn't have the life of a point guard, but wants to work as a point guard.

You are a powerful center. Instead of going inside to get a position, you are active at the basket. Instead, you want the ball from the outside, shoot from the outside without thinking, or take the ball and charge from outside the three-point line. ?
Su Mu will not be used to Embiid, with his super jumping talent, he flew Embiid's offense out of the court.

76ers coach Brett Brown covered his head, just for your opening performance, you also want me to give you 40 minutes of playing time?
"Hey! Joel, calm down!"

McAway gave a reminder, trying to calm the latter down.

"Sorry, mine."

Taking a deep breath, Embiid calmed down.

When facing Su Mu, I can't control my emotions well, it's really terrible.

Serving from the sideline, it is quite easy for McAway to hit Jeremy Lin, after all, he has an absolute advantage in body shape.

In post-up singles, McAway also used extremely efficient offensive methods. After a few blind operations, he really sent the basketball into the basket.

"It doesn't matter, you are still the best, believe in yourself, you can find a way to limit the opponent."

After being easily hit by the opponent, Jeremy Lin looked depressed, and Su Mu poured down a meal of chicken soup, no, brother Jeremy Lin is not a young player, right? He got the wrong target.

Today, the Lakers' offense is very simple, that is, Su Mu and Boozer play a pick-and-roll. No matter what defensive lineup the 76ers send out, they can't stop the strong cooperation between the two.

Embiid can't guard against Su Mu, Sampson can't guard against Boozer, Noel on the bench, with such a small body, doesn't need two people to play, Gordon can hit him [-]-[-] scattered.

Unstoppable, the most efficient way for the Lakers inside the twin towers played an extremely smooth offense on Wachovia Center Court.

After the first quarter, the Lakers led the 32ers by 22 points at 76:22. While Subu scored 6 points together, they sent [-] assists and blocked three shots.

On the other hand, the 76ers struggled extremely.

Embiid's restless way of handling the ball caused him to be replaced by Brown in the middle of the game, and he could only sit on the bench and watch Su Mu and Boozer's double performance.

Unwillingness came to my heart again, and Embiid wanted to vent, but he was powerless.

They fit together so well, maybe Boozer is a better fit.

And I have been abandoned.

However, during the intermission, an accident happened on the field
