NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 37 Selected to the rookie game

Su Tian took advantage of the thunder to call a timeout, and performed an impromptu dance to celebrate.

Take off, wave your hands, shake your shoulders, all in one go, like a dancer who has been practicing for two and a half years.

Brooks urgently arranged his tactics. As the head coach of the Thunder, he had shared honor and disgrace with the Thunder for many years. Brooks didn't want to be swept out at the last moment.

Although he was indeed replaced by Donovan in the end, Brooks obviously didn't want to just go away.

The timeout ends and the game restarts.

Brooks put Durant on the court again, but now Durant's state is obviously not good enough.

Durant came up and made a shot himself, and the shot was hard, but he missed.

Turning around, Su Tian received the ball, faced Westbrook's defense, broke through and scored the ball, and gave the ball to Marion on the outside.

Marion caught the ball and made a three-pointer, but was interfered by Durant and made a shot.

The two sides fought each other, and the choice became cautious.

Facing Su Tian's defense, Westbrook has become less daring to break through and gave the ball to Waiters.

Waiters didn't have any singles strength, and transferred the ball to Durant's hands.

Durant received the ball and began to observe the formation, did not shoot rashly, and suddenly broke through violently.

Sean Marion, who defends Durant, is too old to keep up with Durant.

Durant easily broke through to the inside and was about to dunk when he saw that Tristan Thompson of the Cavaliers had come to help defend and turned the dunk into a layup.

Durant stuck to Thompson's body and made a layup.

87-80, 7 points difference.

Su Tian received the ball and started to attack. This time, he didn't pass the ball again. Westbrook, who was defending against the defense, made a layup.

89-80, reopening the point difference.

Su Tian responded with a goal.

Not to be outdone, Durant made a direct jumper after receiving the pass.

Looking at Durant's straight body, this guy's dry jumper is really a foul!
But at this time Durant was already panting, and his movements and rhythm were obviously a beat slower.

When he made another jump shot, the shooting arc was already crooked.

With the last 2 minutes left in the game, the point difference remained stable at 7 points, and Durant was already sitting on the bench and couldn't move.

Westbrook is also tired enough. Although Westbrook is a famous hunk, he can't stand the devastation of the audience.

Tyronn Lu looked at the situation on the other side, stopped?No, I want to take advantage of your illness and kill you!

Irving, Love, James, the Big Three play!
The Big Three who had rested, plus Su Tian who was kicking in the last quarter, Thunder was beaten to the ground.

In the end, the whistle blew at the end of the game, and the Cavaliers beat the Thunder 110-98 by 12 points. This was the last moment for the Cavaliers to show mercy.

Su Tian scored 24 points in the game and scored 11 points in the last quarter, which once again deepened everyone's impression of him in the final quarter.

杜兰特拿到32分6篮板9助攻，威少22分9篮板11助攻。

Dion Waiters also scored 14 points.

骑士这边，詹姆斯28分7篮板5助攻，乐福19分13篮板，欧文21分2篮板6助攻。

The Cavaliers ushered in a big victory, and Su Tian also got the second highest score in the team, and returned to the locker room happily with the big team.

-

After playing the Thunder, on the 29th the league officially announced the roster for the Rookie Challenge, and Su Tian was on the list.

The rookie challenge this time is divided into international teams and local teams. Interestingly, Wiggins and Su Tian, ​​the strong contenders for the best rookie this year, are both in the international team, which makes the local team a bit bleak.

Other well-known people in the international team: Antetokounmpo, Gobert, Schroeder, Adams, Nurkic.

The local team includes: Pope, Noel, Zeller, Oladipo, LaVine, Plumlee, McAway.

There are still some gimmicks that can be explored in the restructuring of the rookie game, such as the combination of Su Tian and Wiggins.

Just a few days after the roster came out for the rookie game, on February 2, the Cavaliers went to Minnesota to play against the Timberwolves.

This is Love's first visit to Minnesota since the new season, and he naturally became the main interviewee of the media.

Wiggins and Su Tian were also chased by reporters for interviews, but the topics were in completely different directions.

"Kevin, it's your first time to play Timberwolves. Do you have any special feelings?"

"Kevin, will you miss your youth when you see familiar venues?"

"Andrew, for this year's All-Star rookie game, you will team up with Su Tian of the Cavaliers. Do you have anything to say?"

"Su, you will team up with champion Wiggins, do you think you will be a good fit?"

The reporters scrambled to ask questions, but most of the questions about Wiggins and Su Tian were related to the rookie game, while Love was related to the Timberwolves.

But both Love Wiggins and Su Tian knew how to deal with these reporters and didn't give them any chance.

With the whistle of the referee, the game began.

Su Tian still played soy sauce in the first quarter, running tactics and shooting shots, which was very easy.

He made two of three three-pointers and perfectly completed his work as a tool man.

However, Wiggins played quite vigorously, and Timberwolves fans have rarely seen Wiggins working so hard in recent times.

At the end of the first quarter, the Timberwolves led 30-21 by 9 points, and Wiggins scored 11 points in the first quarter, playing very proactively.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Su Tian went to the first position as usual, Smith came up to play the second position, and the team was controlled by Su Tian.

Su Tian and Love played the pick-and-roll first, and the Timberwolves center Pekovic moved slowly, did not follow, and guarded the basket.

Su Tian saw that the opponent's center wasn't following, so he used the screen to shoot a three-pointer.

Swah——

When the three-pointer hit the net, Su Tian felt it, and the feeling remained pretty good.

The Timberwolves attack, Wiggins catches the ball and plays singles, and it is Mike Miller who defends Wiggins. The old Miller is a bit old and can't keep up.

Wiggins easily broke through Miller's defense with the ball. Love at the basket looked at this posture and thought Wiggins was about to dunk, so he quickly stood firm and raised his hands high.

Who knew that after Wiggins broke through with the ball, he didn't go inside and made an emergency stop and made a two-pointer.

Although both points are two points, the feeling of this sudden stop really makes people a little aggrieved, as if something was about to be released, but Wiggins pressed it back abruptly.

Wiggins smiled contemptuously as he looked at the disappointed eyes. Heh, what do you know? I don’t want to be a glass person. I have a 30-year career plan.

How can ordinary people know what we think.

Su Tian is not interested in considering Wiggins' ideas. There are not many opportunities to control the ball, so he must grasp it well during this period.

Su Tian continued to hold the ball and Love picked and rolled, Pekovic had no choice but to come out to defend, but still the same sentence, the pace was too slow.

Su Tian directly broke through Pekovic with the ball, because the center forwards of both sides had been stretched outside, so the inside line was quite empty.

Su Tian received the ball directly, jumped high, and the roc spread its wings.

boom--

Su Tian made a dunk!

After Su Tian succeeded in dunking, he didn't roar or pretend to be aggressive, and quickly returned to defense.

You ask why are you so cowardly?Pekovic's family background is enough for Su Tian to obediently call him big brother.

He may not be that good at playing basketball, but he is first-class in doing things.

In this case, don't pretend to be aggressive, just play well, eh.
