NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 20 The Regular Season Begins

Su Tian came on to replace Waiters,

When he played with James at the same time, Su Tian could afford to carry the big and small kings.

Su Tian only needs to be a good off-ball shooter, and Su Tian has only just drawn Wadeka, and his ability to hold the ball is not that strong yet.

If you play off the ball, James can play comfortably, and Su Tian can also play comfortably.

Su Tian played the rest of the first half, almost 5 minutes, and made two of three three-pointers.Also get an assist.

Su Tian was quite satisfied with his performance, and James was also very satisfied.

Seeing Su Tian running without the ball and shooting posture, it inevitably reminded James of his former teammate, Ray Allen.

During the intermission, James also patted Su Tian on the shoulder to express his encouragement.

Su Tian actually discovered after playing with James that James' passing vision and passing ability are really good.For a player like him who plays off the ball, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Moreover, James' ability to attract double-teams is first-rate, and the ability of former teammate Randall to attract double teams is not at the same level as James.

In short, for these 5 minutes, Su Tian was very comfortable, and James was also very comfortable.Both are very satisfied.

At the beginning of the second half, James rested off the court. It seemed that he would no longer play and had already put on his training clothes.

Irving led the team on the court. In fact, when he was on the court with Irving at the same time, Su Tian wanted to play with the ball at first, but he didn't dare to fight against Irving in the first game. timely.

And Owen didn't pay too much attention to Su Tian. After all, he was just a rookie, and he was still at the end of the first round. How can he compare with the top pick like me?

Can't compare, you know, he doesn't have this ability.

Therefore, Su Tian still focused on off the ball, shooting when he had the opportunity, passing the ball when he had no opportunity, and hit a layup during the fast break.

最终全场结束，苏天全场18分5助攻3篮板，三分球6投4中。

After the game, Tyronn Lue also chatted with Su Tian alone, affirming Su Tian's style of play, and asked Su Tian to stick to this style of play, and the first start is just around the corner.

After all, there are already Irving and James in the starting lineup, not to mention there is Love, no one needs to hold the ball, what is needed is an off-ball master.

Su Tian is just right.

On October 10, the Miami Heat struck, and the two teams fought in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Although this game was a battle of focus, James still didn't play seriously. Su Tian still performed well. He made 5 of 4 three-pointers, 16 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds.

Moreover, in these two games, Su Tian showed his toughness in the last quarter, and his shots at critical moments were not soft at all.

Others just regard it as another player with a big heart, but only Su Tian knows that this is the effect of the king of the final quarters of the purple badge.

In addition to this focus game against the Heat, the Cavaliers will face two NBA opponents at home in Ohio State.

分别是10月14日对阵雄鹿，与10月17日对阵小牛。而在10月15日，还有一支球队将成为检验骑士硬实力的试金石，那便是印第安纳步行者队。

However, due to Paul George's accidental injury in the training team, the strength of the Pacers in the new season has been greatly reduced.

The continuous game schedule also caused Su Tian's state to fluctuate. The game against the Bucks on the 14th was not bad, and he made 5 of 2 three-pointers. However, facing the Pacers on the second day, Su Tian's state was affected. Big impact, 4 of 1 three-pointers, only 9 points in the game.

In the game against the Mavericks on the 17th, due to a day off in the middle, Su Tian's state has recovered, and he made 6 of 3 three-pointers and scored 15 points in the game.

But then, against the Bulls on the 20th and against the Grizzlies on the 22nd, Su Tian performed so-so.

If it wasn't for the support of the purple badge king of the last quarter, Su Tian's performance would be worse than this, but the key is that the coach didn't know that Su Tian had such a thing as the king of the last quarter!

Often, if the performance in the first three quarters is relatively hip, the fourth quarter will not be allowed.Su Tian wanted to talk to Tyronn Lue and let him play in the fourth quarter!

But Su Tian didn't dare, rookie, he was afraid.

In fact, the meaning of Tyronn Lue is easy to understand. In his opinion, the first three quarters failed to adjust, and the fourth quarter will only stretch his hips more, because it will be affected by physical and mental exhaustion. Adjusted, it's not realistic.

Tai Lunlu was actually protecting Su Tian.

But Su Tian didn't know Tai Lunlu's good intentions, so he could only draw circles beside him.

Not reconciled?What to do if you are not reconciled, then practice.So Su Tian started extra training after the preseason.

In his first year in the league, Su Tian didn't ask much. He only hoped that he would not stretch his hips in the first three quarters, and had a stable playing time in the fourth quarter. Then he waited for an opportunity, an opportunity to prove himself.

The Cavaliers' first regular-season game of the new season is at home against the Knicks.At this time, the Knicks, you can’t say that he is strong, and you dare not say how weak he is. You can’t say that he is strong because the Knicks can’t even make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference. You can’t say that he is weak because Melon is still there.

On October 10, Quicken Loans Arena, the Knicks struck.Before the start of the game, the team's starting players were introduced. When James was read, the entire arena burst into cheers, as if they were welcoming their emperor.

James, as usual, threw chalk in front of the technical stage.

When the camera shoots from the back of James, in the picture, there is still James wearing the No. 23 jersey, and there is still flying chalk.

Nothing seems to have changed, and everything seems to have changed.

Su Tian is still not starting this game. In fact, there are two games in the preseason, but Su Tian also knows that there are too many preseason games.

At the beginning of the game, the Cavaliers started with point guard Irving, shooting guard Waiters, small forward James, power forward Love, and center Varejao.

Irving controlled the ball and pushed forward. Facing Calderon's defense, he dribbled the ball in a burst of unpredictability. He easily broke through Calderon and scored a layup.

James saw it and clapped his hands to encourage him, as long as he scored, it was a good goal.

The Knicks attack, Anthony gets the ball, three-threat start, James defends himself.

During this period, James was still at his peak, and when he met Anthony, it was his first game back in Cleveland. James was still willing to defend.

Under James' defense, Anthony shot and hit the iron.

Su Tian sat off the court, watching the starters on the court play back and forth a few offenses and defenses.

Both James and Irving have a strong desire to attack, and Anthony also has a strong desire to attack and can score, but the efficiency is low.

Five minutes into the first quarter, the Knicks called a timeout.Because the Knicks are already 5 points behind.

For the Cavaliers, Tyronn Lue replaced Waiters and Su Tian.

Su Tian sighed, finally appeared!I never want to be a cold bench again!
Then Su Tian went up and struck a shot.

Well, listen to my explanation. .

In fact, there is nothing to explain. It is normal for Su Tian, ​​who is defended by Iman Shumpert, to hit an iron.

After that, Su Tian played much smarter, and Su Tian's spiritual running position was brought from the NCAA arena to the NBA arena.

Relying on various screens, Su Tian received the ball at the top of the arc and shot directly.

The catch-and-shoot badge lights up and the [-]-pointer hits the net.Su Tian successfully scored the first goal of his NBA career.

James also happily received an assist.

Well, we all have a bright future ahead.
