NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 35 James Returns

After the game against the Warriors, JR Smith and Mozgov were completely integrated into the team.

The two are also constantly working hard to get along, and get along very well with everyone.

After all, among the Cavaliers players with names and surnames, there is no one who is not here for the championship.

The team was training normally on this day. Su Tian looked at Dellavedova who was practicing defense, and suddenly had an interesting idea in his mind.

"Matthew, I have a way to improve your defense and stealing ability, do you want to try it?" Su Tian looked at Dellavedova expectantly.

"Ah? Me, of course!" Dellavedova hurriedly asked for advice when he saw this.

When the team trained together, Dellavedova could also feel that Su Tian's defense was quite good. With Su Tian's help, his defense should improve.

Maybe.

"Matthew, where I played before, there is a man named Alvarado. He is in a similar situation to you. He is not tall, but he has a strong defense, and he has a unique stealing skill."

Su Tian taught the stunt with a mysterious face. Dellavedova was very excited at first, but the more he listened, the more something went wrong, and the more he listened, the more something went wrong.

In fact, this kind of technique appears more frequently on the football field. It is to take advantage of the opponent's serve and not pay attention, go to the blind spot of the opponent's player's line of sight, suddenly attack from behind, and complete the steal. Netizens call it the "old six".

"Su, is this really alright?" Dellavedova looked constipated.

"Is it true that you won't be beaten?"

"Well, maybe, but if he wants to hit you and run away, he'll definitely get a technical foul."

Dellavedova looked at the confident Su Tian, ​​but he felt unconfident in himself.

"Okay, then I'll try it, hope it works."

Su Tian looked at Dellavedova who looked embarrassed and patted his shoulder, encouraging him to practice hard.

Su Tian thought, you don't even know that Alvarado averaged 1.3 steals per game, ranking 28th in the league in steals. This is not low, let alone just a role player.

Moreover, Alvarado also gained a lot of traffic with this circle of followers.

But you have to pay attention to Paul, and if you are not careful, you will be warned.

After playing the Warriors, the league also announced last month's Rookie of the Month.

Unsurprisingly, Wiggins is still in the west, and Su Tian is still in the east, but Su Tian has surpassed Wiggins on the best rookie list.

Wiggins seems to have become more healthy since Jabari Parker was injured. This kind of healthy play is understandable, but everyone obviously hasn't realized it yet.

As for the best of the month, the bearded James Harden is in the west, and Kyle Lowry, the small steel gun in the east, is in the east.

After James was absent for so long, he finally made his comeback against the Suns on January 1.

And this injury is also the longest continuous absence of James in a single season so far.

Missed 15 consecutive days of injury and missed 7 games.In these 7 games, the Cavaliers lost 3 games. Of course, there are also reasons for strong enemies, but the biggest reason is that no one can fill the vacancy of James.

The importance of James to the Cavaliers is self-evident.

It can be said that the current Cavaliers, James' injury and playing, determine whether the team is at the playoff level or at the championship level.

In the next few games, James also gradually recovered his form. Although he also lost a few games in the middle, he always maintained the number one position in the Eastern Conference.

Among them, the game against the Lakers was particularly thrilling. Su Tian didn't expect that the old Lakers Kobe, even at the end of his career, could still play more than 30 minutes.

Thanks to the last moment, Su Tian locked up Kobe by relying on the physical strength recovered by the king of the final quarter, otherwise it would really be possible for Kobe to take him away.

Obviously I will retire from the tour next season, and I am still playing so hard this season, the Mamba spirit really does not deceive me.

After the game, Su Tian went to find Kobe and asked for his autograph and exchange of jerseys.First of all, Su Tian is not Comey, mainly because it is too difficult to get jerseys and autographs for the next season.Yes, it is like that.

Kobe also recognized Su Tian very much, he was full of praise for Su Tian's defense, and even recruited a wave of Su Tian.In his later years, Kobe's temper has indeed improved a lot, and he has shown more care for young players.

As everyone's schedule continued, the All-Star voting was gradually coming to an end, and Su Tian didn't expect to be voted in, even though he was backed by the big market.

If there are no accidents in the All-Star starting lineup, it should have been confirmed, but the position of the vote champion has not yet been determined.

Originally, James has been leading the votes list, but he was injured for a period of time in the middle, and coupled with a crazy performance by the Golden State Warriors, Curry is now quite ready to overtake.

On January 2015, 1, the NBA officially announced the East and West starters for the 23 NBA All-Star Game.Curry successfully surpassed LeBron at the last moment and became this year's vote leader.

Eastern team:
John Wall (Washington Wizards)
Kyle Lowry (Toronto Raptors)
LeBron James (Cleveland Cavaliers)
Carmelo Anthony (New York Knicks)
Pau Gasol (Chicago Bulls)
Western team:
Stephen Curry (Golden State Warriors)
Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles Lakers)
Anthony Davis (New Orleans Pelicans)

Blake Griffin (Los Angeles Clippers)
Marc Gasol (Memphis Grizzlies)
Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue and Warriors coach Steve Kerr became East and West coaches.

The Gasol brothers were also selected as the starting lineup, which is also a good story.

After the All-Star starting list comes out, the Cavaliers will usher in another focus battle.

On the 26th, the Cavaliers will face the Thunder.

The matchup between James and Durant, the matchup between Irving and Westbrook, and the matchup between Love and Ibaka.

And Su Tian, ​​​​against Dion Waiters, who was traded away by the Cavaliers.

Originally, Waiters' deal had nothing to do with Su Tian, ​​but Waiters didn't think so.

Waiters believes that it is precisely because of the existence of Su Tian that the Cavaliers have the confidence to trade themselves away without feeling that it is their own problem.

This kind of blaming others for all the faults, Su Tian said that he has seen this kind of boxing a lot, and he doesn't panic at all, and even thinks this boxing is quite immature.

With the continuous integration of Wideka, Su Tian can now maintain an average of about 18 points per game, and his three-point shooting percentage is 41.3%.It's just that affected by the few games at the beginning of the previous season, the official scoring average is only 16.3 points per game.

This is still a situation where there are not enough ball possessions. If you go to a bad team, it is not a problem to average 20 points per game, but obviously Su Tian doesn't want to waste his life on a bad team.

On January 1, when the Thunder visited Cleveland, Waiters returned to Quicken Loans Arena for the first time after being traded.

It's just that Waiters' traffic is obviously not comparable to that of Wiggins, and no reporter wants to interview him.

Basically all reporters gathered around Durant and Westbrook, and the two teams obviously have other more interesting topics.

For example, Durant played against James in the Heat in the Finals in 2012.

Westbrook and Love were UCLA alumni in college.

Both of them still have huge traffic, of course it is not Waiters' turn.

After Waiters came to the Thunder, his playing time has increased, and his average data has also increased, but the increase is very small, averaging about 14 points per game.

With the whistle of the referee, the game began.
