NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal: Chapter 1190 Is this really just preseason?
Latest website: Coach Terry ignored the strange expressions of the surrounding players, but turned to look at Jokic and Aldridge, and continued: "Nikola will play 5 in a while, and LaMarcus will play 4!"
"Damien and Lee, you continue to be the starting backcourt."
"Do you understand?"
After that, he yelled at the bench.
"clear!"
At this time, everyone realized that Coach Terry was using the magic weapon they used to win the championship last season and responded quickly.
"OK! Let's play then!"
"receive!"
Interpretation seat at the imperial court.
"Hey, what's going on on the Trail Blazers bench? Is Coach Terry planning a new tactic?"
Yu Jia glanced at the Trail Blazers bench and said with some surprise.
"They should be planning to change tactics," Zhang Liyi nodded next to him, and continued, "We noticed in the first quarter that the Trail Blazers tried many lineups, but the results were not very good. It seems that Coach Terry is I plan to use my trump card."
Yu Jia echoed: "Let us look forward to their performance."
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle brought the two men back from their conversation.
When the starting players from both sides came on the stage again, the audience was stunned, followed by cheers!
Because of this lineup, the Blazers fans at the scene were extremely familiar with it. This year's team was able to overcome many obstacles and win the championship thanks to this three-high lineup with Wang Zelin as the core small forward.
The Warriors players on the opposite side were also dumbfounded. The Splash Brothers, Green, McGee, and Ariza who had just appeared turned to look at Cole on the bench. They seemed to be asking:
"Coach, are we really just playing a preseason game?"
Cole scratched his head and cheeks. He was also confused by Coach Terry's operation. At this time, he also had some doubts about life:
Is this really just a preseason contest?
By the way, why don't you be so sensitive? Aren't you just 7 points behind? As for opening up as soon as we meet in the new season...
Cole was speechless, but he couldn't call a timeout at this time, he could only force the players to fight.
As soon as the second quarter started, the Warriors took the lead.
Facing this three-high lineup that shaved their heads 0-4 in the Western Conference Finals last season, Green and McGee are both familiar and afraid.
Fortunately, as a leader, Curry spoke in time to stabilize the morale of the army.
"Don't be nervous, let the other side see that our hard training this summer was not in vain!"
The month-long hard training with Wang Zelin and the others this summer not only improved Wang Zelin's strength, but also Curry and Thompson.
Moreover, Curry also has a better understanding of Wang Zelin's terrifying strength!
But even so, Curry still has strong confidence in his own strength and the teammates behind him. He is not the kind of player who will shut down after encountering some setbacks.
Curry looks baby-faced on the outside, but inside he lives a powerful warrior!
Even if his opponent was Wang Zelin, who had suffered a losing streak for several years, he had never been afraid.
Feeling the fiery fighting spirit coming from Curry, Wang Zelin subconsciously held his head high and immediately recalled a fiery look in his eyes:
If you want to fight, fight over there!
Green advanced with the ball in the backcourt. Curry used Thompson's screen to create an opportunity, and Green released the ball in time.
"Snapped!"
As soon as he received the ball, Curry faced Wang Zelin who came to defend him, but he still chose to force the shot.
Needless to say, Curry's shooting speed is really exaggerated. It only takes 0.3 seconds, which is enough to complete the facial shot in front of any defender.
Wang Zelin rushed over immediately, but he was still half a beat too late. The basketball finally passed through his fingertips and flew towards the basket.
"Uh-huh!"
The ball hit the net hollowly and made a splash.
At 24:14, the Warriors led by double digits.
“Stephen Curry!!”
More than 2,000 Warriors fans at the scene immediately roared and danced excitedly.
In this battle that only Curry and Wang Zelin know about, Curry wins first!
"I'm in, now it's up to you?"
After Curry scored, he raised his head and looked directly at Wang Zelin, and his meaning was self-evident.
"Humph!" Wang Zelin laughed, then turned to look at Jokic and yelled at him: "Give me the ball!"
"Ah...oh!"
Jokic was stunned for a moment, then quickly bent down to pick up the ball and sent it to Wang Zelin.
Looking at the back of Warrior No. 30 who had retreated, Wang Zelin was thoughtful.
Before the game, he asked the system to check the overall ability rating of the Warriors' current lineup.
Among them, Curry and Thompson's ability ratings are the most dazzling, and both have made breakthroughs compared to last season.
Thompson's ability rating reached 89, just one step away from the superstar realm of 90.
As for how long it will take for him to take this crucial step, it is unknown.
On the contrary, Curry's ability rating has reached 98. In the system's internal database, this is already the peak personal strength that Curry can achieve in the original time and space.
In the system's internal database, as of 2023, there will be no more than 15 players in NBA history who can reach an ability rating of 98 at the peak of their careers!
And the elementary school student happens to be one of the 15 strongest people in history!
According to the system, people are not machines after all. They have ups and downs in their long careers. Some players were able to become gods last season, and next season there will be fans who want him to be buried quickly.
In the system's judgment, Curry's personal ability rating in a single season reached 98 only twice in his entire career!
The first time was the 2015-16 season. That season was definitely Curry's career year, and his status in all aspects ushered in a major explosion.
In the 15-16 season, Curry averaged 30.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 6.7 assists, 2.1 steals and 0.2 blocks per game. His 50.4% field goal percentage was the highest in his career, and his 45.4% three-point field goal percentage was also among the best in his career. Also as high as 90.8%.
The second time was the 2020-21 season when Curry led the team with a single core after the Golden State Warriors dynasty collapsed in history.
When the Warriors were at their lowest point, they forced Curry into his strongest form. Curry in the 20-21 season proved one thing to people: as long as he wants to take action and has enough power to take action, he is the NBA A super scorer with second-to-none offensive firepower!
And now, Curry has once again reached the peak of his career several seasons earlier than Wang Zelin remembered. He is sure that a large part of the reason is to blame on himself!
Some people fell into confusion after losing consecutive battles and finally chose to escape.
There are also people who become more frustrated and courageous after consecutive defeats, and finally achieve self-sublimation.
Obviously, the Stephen Curry in front of him is the latter!
It seems that this season is not as boring as he imagined. Curry brought him such a surprise, and maybe others did too.
As for everyone, why Curry has never been able to break through the ability rating of 99, this involves a very critical issue.
That is, raw talent!
When they were children, most people must have heard a famous saying from their teachers or elders: Genius is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration!
As everyone knows, there is another half to Edison’s sentence: But sometimes the 1% of inspiration is more important than the 99% of sweat!
Among the top 15 or even top 20 players in NBA history, Curry's raw physical talent is definitely not ranked. Not only that, he can even be ranked at the bottom.
That's not right. Curry is still a black player after all. If we really want to say that among the top 15 superstars in history, the physical talent ranks at the bottom, it has to be Larry Bird!
But even so, elementary school students are basically ranked second only to Big Bird.
It is that 1% inspiration gap that prevents elementary school students from reaching the NBA's ceiling.
Accidentally, my thoughts wandered away again and returned to the topic.
Amid the MVP cheers from the fans at the scene, Wang Zelin slowly advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.
Facing Ariza's one-on-one defense, the other Blazers players pulled away one after another, because they knew that next would be their boss's showtime!
Looking at Trail Blazers No. 36, who was a full 10 centimeters taller than him, Ariza almost couldn't help but burst into tears!
Wang Zelin's shot is different from Curry's. Although it is not as ridiculously fast as the latter, the visual effect is even more unsolvable!
Just because... he is not only fast, but his attack point is ridiculously high!
As long as he has space to shoot, the defender can only resign himself to fate.
Regardless of whether he is attacking with the ball or playing without the ball, Wang Zelin has practiced to perfection. He is an expert in shooting, but his defensive ability is definitely one of the few top wing defenders in the league.
But unfortunately, he met Wang Zelin now.
Wang Zelin stopped the ball, ignored him, and took a jump shot.
What's even more unfortunate is that... Wang Zelin's hands are so hot now!
As long as he feels good, no matter how many defenders are standing in front of him, Wang Zelin can kill the opponent with a jump shot.
If Durant is already unsolvable enough, then Wang Zelin, who is better than Durant in height, wingspan, and jumping, and does not have to worry about physical problems at all, can be called an epic enhanced version of Durant!
The real God of Death did not flee to New York in the East, but still stood in Portland in the West!
At least in front of Ariza, Wang Zelin is the real **** of death!
At 17:24, the point difference remains the same.
"it's your turn."
Wang Zelin ignored the lost Ariza and looked at Curry again from the air.
Green dribbled the ball across half court, and the Warriors opened up the space and created a singles opportunity for Curry.
Curry's scoring method is in sharp contrast to Trail Blazers No. 36. His main focus is efficient without the ball!
With the help of the Warriors' team-wide tacit understanding of the pass-and-cut system, Curry found an opportunity to misplace a small to hit a big one, and completed a lightning-fast shot before Jokic could react.
Curry made two shots and scored 5 points in a row!
Turning heads, the Blazers attack.
Wang Zelin continued to pull up from the outside. This time Ariza took off hard, but still only looked up to Wang Zelin to complete the freehand shot.
"Uh-huh!"
20:26.
Back in the second quarter, the Blazers also scored in the first two attacks.
Curry suddenly held the ball in the backcourt and launched a fast break. Just when everyone thought he was going to attack the frame, he suddenly stopped on the outside and shot a chasing three-pointer.
Only this time, Curry's shot missed the basket. After Big McGee protected the rebound, he almost suffered from symptoms and launched a second attack against the two defenders.
Fortunately Curry stopped him.
Elementary school students can understand myboy's desire to express himself, but tonight the Warriors' opponent is the Trail Blazers.
Even if it’s just a preseason game, don’t be careless!
In Wang Zelin's previous life, after Durant and the Warriors turned enemies into friends, the topic of "who is the boss of the Warriors" never stopped.
Obviously, Curry's leadership ability is underestimated!
Just imagine, if a primary school student wants to prove himself as paranoid as a high school student with an ever-rising hairline, how could Durant win the FMVP for two consecutive years with the Warriors?
Before Durant joined, no one questioned Curry's status as the Warriors boss.
As the boss, Wang Zelin is very familiar with the privileges of the boss.
If he really wants to improve his statistics, Curry can be a little willful at certain moments, and he can complete the harvest of honors with more than 100 million shots. Why wait until the 2022 finals.
After all, for a long time after Durant joined, Universe Yong was the only player in the league in pure strength. As long as there were no major accidents, the championship would basically be locked in advance every year.
Even if Curry's occasional willfulness will not affect the overall situation of the team, he has never done that.
Perhaps in the mind of a primary school student, when he is in good condition, he should be versatile, and when he is in bad condition, he is willing to sacrifice for his teammates. This is the law of basketball in his perception!
And this is his most important contribution to the Warriors universe system.
At the same time, having the courage to make sacrifices is often a prerequisite for a player to become a winner!
In order to comfort their teammates, the Warriors reorganized their offense.
After Curry and McGee set a high screen, they passed the ball to McGee. Myboy pulled a green onion from the ground and easily performed a two-handed dunk.
From the brain down, he is a perfect match. This is really true to describe McGee.
After scoring the goal, McGee proudly showed off to Wang Zelin.
Wang Zelin immediately became happy, what level are you at, and you can actually provoke me?
Ariza on the side became worried about McGee.
"It's over, that stupid guy is going to be beaten by the other stupid guy on the opposite side!"
Wang Zelin: "..."
Fortunately, Wang Zelin didn't know that Tie Zha actually described himself like this in his heart, otherwise he would have to let the latter know why the flowers were so red.
The Trail Blazers attack in the frontcourt.
Wang Zelin stood up against Lillard in the high position.
However, the Warriors were not fooled, and the two cars quickly completed the defense switch with Curry.
Looking at the elementary school student who slipped away to chase Connett Lee, Wang Zelin felt quite regretful. He originally wanted to use Curry as a backdrop to prove that ankle terminators are not exclusive to outside players.
I didn’t expect primary school students to be so clever, alas...
Curry looked back and saw the regretful expression on Wang Zelin's face, and a chill rose inexplicably behind his back. He suddenly felt lucky for his choice to take the initiative to substitute.
On the court, Lillard encountered Thompson's death entanglement. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com did not seriously hurt Tang Shen before, and his defense was really good, which made Lillard a little overwhelmed for a while.
Lillard handed the ball to Wang Zelin. Wang Zelin took a tentative step to attack after holding the ball in the high post. Ariza took a step back, but still stretched out his long arm to interfere with Wang Zelin's sight.
At any rate, Ariza had high hopes from the Mosaic management back then and was trained as the next Tracy McGrady. His talent is absolutely outstanding.
But the next moment, he suffered a dimensionality reduction blow at the talent level.
I saw Wang Zelin suddenly kick up his calves after crossing, throw away Ariza in one step, forcefully walk to the left to overtake, and go straight to the basket.
At this time, McGee happened to be in the penalty area. After hearing the movement, he turned around quickly. Before he could react, an unstoppable force suddenly hit him and knocked him directly off the baseline.
"boom!"
After falling to the ground, I looked up and saw the figure of Trail Blazers No. 36 hanging on the basket. (End of chapter)
