NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O'Neal Chapter 315

Nearly an hour before the game started, the Oracle Arena, home of the Golden State Warriors, was full.

The game at 7:30 pm is a live broadcast from all meters, because there are too many things to watch in this game.

The Warriors' main point guard Stephen Curry, who just reached a contract with the Golden State Warriors champion last season, has completed a magnificent transformation this season.

The first is that various data have improved to varying degrees compared with the rookie contract year, especially the scoring. The average of 24 points per game is a career high, which is infinitely close to the first-class scorers in the league with an average of 25+ per game.

24 points, 8 assists, 4 rebounds and 1.6 steals - Curry's performance so far this season.

The biggest change brought about by the good performance is that during the first round of voting in the All-Star voting system, Curry was second only to Kobe Bryant in the Western Conference guard vote. The current cumulative votes are 347,600, ranking second in the Western backcourt.

Of course, this also has something to do with Curry's excellent play this season.

When the Warriors played against the 75ers in Game 4 of the season, he had a triple-double of 18 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds, and contributed 5 steals...

This baby-faced killer has ushered in a year of soaring career!

The Warriors are currently ranked fifth in the West, and the outside world just regards them as a "just changed core" ordinary playoff seeding team.

Including other players of the Blazers think so too.

However, Wang Zelin did not dare to take it lightly, because this team has created too many miracles in the future and brought too much shock to the fans.

No one would have thought that Stephen Curry, with a baby face, would become the greatest point guard in the new century!

Even when ranking the NBA's historical status in the future, Curry, who has not yet retired, has reached the level of sitting two and three, ranking second only to the first NBA point guard "Magic" Erwin Johnson.

To a certain extent, Curry's appearance has epoch-making significance, and the Golden State Warriors team he led also has epoch-making significance.

After all, this is the first team to break the "no jumper can't win an NBA championship" rule.

Players from both sides have entered the field and are warming up.

Wang Zelin, Curry, Aldridge, Lillard, and David Lee appear on the big screen from time to time. Because all five of them are players who received a higher number of votes in the first round of the All-Star voting, they are very likely to attend this year's New Orleans All-Star Game.

In the 2013-2014 season, the deadline for the first round of NBA All-Star voting is December 13, and there is still half a month before the results of the first round are released.

But at 3:00 pm this afternoon, the NBA officially updated the number of votes for the players that day, and Wang Zelin became the first player with more than 500,000 votes. The second LeBron James has just reached 390,000 votes, and Wang Zelin has 110,000 more votes than James...

As we all know, the development law of All-Star voting is fierce in the early stage, and tends to be dull in the middle and late stages. The stage where players get the most votes is basically concentrated in the first round.

This is why, in the original time and space, the number of votes James won in the first round has exceeded 600,000, and the following three people came down, and the total votes only stayed at 1.41 million, which is far from the 2 million mark.

According to the current trend, the number of votes Wang Zelin won in the first round is very likely to exceed 1 million... The first-round vote king is waving to him!

No, it should be said that the All-Star ticket king is locked in advance.

Back on the field, a brief look at the lineups of both teams.

In light of the lineup, the Trail Blazers seem to have achieved a crush.

Wang Zelin and Aldridge are both players who have been selected to the All-Star team. Although David Lee of the Warriors has also been selected to the All-Star team, no one thinks that he can take any advantage of the Blazers' interior defense.

Of the remaining players, Curry, the head of the Warriors, also just made his name last season, becoming a scorer with an average of 20+ per game in the league.

Everyone agrees that even if there is progress this season, he will not be able to reach the sky in one step and become the active superstar in the league.

Aside from the main focus on the bench, the gap between the Warriors and the Trail Blazers is even greater. The Blazers have Mo Williams and Garnett, who can consistently contribute two scoring points of 10+.

What about the Warriors?

The players in the bench rotation who can barely see the past, the first is Maris Speights, who scored 8.3 points and 4.9 rebounds last season. After coming to the Warriors this season, the playing time has been reduced by 4 minutes, and the data of 6+3 can be obtained at present.

In addition, the Warriors' bench also has Jermaine O'Neal signed for 2 million meters a year, which is the former All-Star O'Neal Jr., Jordan Crawford and Drummond Green, who is in a wretched developmental stage.

From the offensive end to the defensive end, especially the defensive end, the Warriors are completely incomparable with the Blazers.

The future all-around warrior Dream Chasing Green is still a complete rookie. Kerr has not coached the Warriors yet, and at this time he has not been valued by head coach Mark Jackson in the team, so until now, the average data per game is only 6+5+1, which is not a cause for concern!

The only thing to watch out for is that number 30 - Stephen Curry!

Curry's long-shot attribute value remains unchanged at 97 from last season, but Wang Zelin estimates that it will only take these two seasons for Curry to break through to the ceiling level of 99.

The ultimate ability of 99. At present, Wang Zelin has only seen it in the CIC attribute value of Kobe's strength section.

However, the improvement of Curry's other abilities still moved Wang Zelin: 89-92 mid-range shots, 78-84 passing, 80-82 breakthroughs, 85-89 comprehensive rating...

It is not far from the time line when Kurt Ritian landed on the stage of NBA history!

In addition, there is Klay Thompson, whose long-shot attributes have broken from 94 to 95, and the comprehensive rating has broken from 78 to 80. This guy is also not to be underestimated. After all, starting next season, Thompson will officially become a regular in the NBA All-Star Game.

Brother Splash, it's about to usher in the blooming moment.

In the scrimmage, the Trail Blazers won the first attack without any suspense. For example, with Wang Zelin, Bo Gte will never try to win once in his life.

The Blazers attacked, and Wang Zelin supported him from a high position. Matthews ran out of the opportunity and received a pass. Duang made his first shot.

Terry Stotts was chewing gum on the sidelines, his expression unchanged. Because of this ball, Matthews got a chance to move without the ball. There was no problem in tactics, and the opportunity came out, but he didn't score... Then it can only be attributed to the player's own feel.

Bo Gte is about to take off to protect the defensive rebound, but there is already a first mover...

"Zeling grabbed the offensive rebound...he took off...dunk with both hands under the basket...the shot was really beautiful! It fully reflects the tacit cooperation between the Blazers players, it doesn't matter if you don't score, and Someone else will wipe your **** for you."

Zhang Lili explained loudly.

Yu Jia said: "Cough, teacher Zhang, calm down, let's calm down. For the king, this is just a basic exercise."

"Don't worry, I have everything!" Wang Zelin said to Matthews when he was retreating.

"Got it, man, I'm not that easy to knock down."

Matthews nodded.

Warriors attack.

The Blazers have a balanced attack and defense, and they retreat and defense very quickly. Curry did not find the opportunity to quickly break, so he could only land on the ground.

On the home commentary stand.

"Chris, how do you think Stephen will play this ball?" Warriors legend Rick Barry asked.

"It goes without saying that it must be his best three-pointer. This little guy is the hottest three-pointer in the league right now!" Another famous Chris Mullin laughed.

Because it was broadcast live in all meters, ESPN paid some price and specially invited Rick Barry and Chris Mullin, two former Warriors legends, to comment on the scene.

One is the originator of the free throw posture of holding the urinal, Kobe was the strongest No. 24 player in history before entering the league; the other was "God's Left Hand", who was also a superstar in the league at his peak.

The coffee position of the two is not too big.

When the two of them officially decided to explain the game, both the Warriors players on the court and the Warriors fans in the stands seemed to get a natural morale boost. From the moment the game started, cheers resounded throughout the arena. .

Since Monta Ellis was traded away, the Warriors' ball control has generally been in Curry's hands.

Don't look at the hype in the pre-game media's portrayal, when Curry knows that unless his team has an explosive feel, or the opponent is in a normal state, he will definitely not be able to kill the Blazers when facing them.

Therefore, Curry, who is bent on winning, chose to press down the rhythm and hit the success rate.

Yes, you heard that right! Although he was on the side that was not optimistic before the game, Curry still did not give up. In order to win, he racked his brains, how could he give up easily.

At the top of the arc, Lillard tried desperately to entangle Curry, but the latter was unmoved. At this time, David Lee took the initiative to do the pick-and-roll. Wang Zelin followed and left the basket, ready to switch to Curry.

The pick-and-rolls of Curry and David Lee are the most important offensive tactics for the Warriors right now.

Sure enough, Curry used the cover to break through, and Wang Zelin immediately moved to the right to re-fire.

However, Curry just pretended to make a breakthrough, took a step in, then retracted his right foot, stood outside the three-point line, and raised his hand to score a three-pointer.

Damn, the speed of this shot is really outrageous!

Wang Zelin didn't even have time to reach out, Curry's shooting was over.

Don't go in! Be sure not to enter!

The only thing he can do now is pray that Curry feels as bad as Matthews.

But God is not willing.

As soon as Wang Zelin turned around and was about to rush for a rebound, Yu Guang had already glanced at the whereabouts of the basketball and stopped.

"Shh!"

Splashes rose and a three-pointer hit.

3:2.

"Stephen ~ Curry!!!"

The home DJ roared wildly, driving the fans in the stands to cheer together.

"Hahaha, what did I say? Stephen will definitely respond with a three-pointer." Mullin laughed.

Barry sighed: "I have to admit that the three-point talent on this little guy is the first person I have ever seen in my life! I really didn't expect that such a weak body contains such a huge amount of energy."

Indeed, in the third year of his career, Curry, who was plagued by injuries and only played 26 games, when everyone thought that the star of hope was withering, he returned to the game with a stronger attitude.

Through that baby face, people can see Curry's perseverance and persistence in the face of difficulties. Perhaps this is the reason why he has a large number of fans.

The courtroom live broadcast room.

"Yo! The first three-pointer was hit. Today, Stephen Curry, the head of the Warriors, should feel the same." Zhang Lili shouted.

Trail Blazers attack.

Wang Zelin did not enter the basket and moved on the right flank in order to open the paint area to facilitate Lillard, Matthews and Batum to break through.

At this time, the ball arrived, and Bo Gt behind him quickly got on his body.

Bogut was 2.13 meters and weighed 118 kilograms last season. In order to resist Wang Zelin, he gained another 3 kilograms in the offseason to 121 kilograms.

This makes his movement slower, but does increase his strength.

However, the tonnage of 121 kilograms is far from enough in the face of Wang Zelin's domineering power.

"Bang!"

With a collision, Bo Ge took a big step back in an instant, and arched again, Bo Ge was knocked directly into the reasonable collision zone.

Outside the window, Mark Jackson shook his head. This scene was very similar to last season. He had to be double-teamed to solve the big guy.

In the elbow area of the left wing, seeing that Bo Gte couldn't hold it, David Lee kept coming over to double-team, grabbed in front of Wang Zelin, stretched out his hands, and blocked his passing route.

With that, Aldridge is free, he cuts inside, and takes the ball.

Obviously, the Warriors underestimated Wang Zelin's passing ability and broad vision. I saw him slammed into the top, and after knocking back Bo Gte, there was a short and obvious gap in Bogut and David Lee's original airtight defense.

He grabbed the ball with his right hand and threw it back, and the ball passed from the gap between the two.

"Snapped!"

Aldridge has already stood at the basket, caught the pass, and dunked with one hand to score two more points for the team.

4:3

"This passing skill is too delicate, and the timing is also accurate."

"It can't solve the king's point. It is estimated that it is a little difficult for the Warriors to win."

When the duo of the court platform explained, the warriors launched a counterattack.

After Curry smashed to the free throw line, he made a sudden pull-up jumper and scored 2 points for the Warriors.

Curry scored in two consecutive rounds~www.mtlnovel.com~ In addition to showing his status in the team, it also shows the lack of coach Mark Jackson's tactical system.

After watching the previous Warriors game, the Blazers coaching staff knew that the Warriors' offense mostly relied on Curry's pick-and-roll with the ball, and the tactical changes were definitely not rich.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Mark Jackson will be dismissed in the future.

Not only because of the bad relationship with the team's management, but also in terms of player usage, he is far less than the future Kerr.

Suffice it to say that Mark Jackson changed the Warriors' culture, infused it with a defense and a team that was no longer the chaos of the old Nelson days.

But this is like building a house. He has laid the foundation. As for how to construct a warrior into a skyscraper, he does not have the ability.

Therefore, although Curry scored two goals in a row, coach Terry Stotts was delighted when he saw this scene.

If the Warriors let Curry follow them to compete on offense, Coach Terry Stotts believes that the last laugh must be his own team.
