Pick Westbrook

Chapter 77 Another Melee Fight

Ok? !

Xiao Hua who heard these remarks was almost stupid, why did he still rely on him while talking?

Li Lai explained: "If under your management, the entire NBA is full of vigor, fairness and justice, who would like to criticize these referees in front of the media?
So, the decision whether the fans or I will complain about these referees is not up to us, it's up to you. "

Xiao Hua was silent for a while, agreeing with this point of view from the bottom of his heart.

It is true that sports events will look better only if they are based on fairness.

Originally, during the Christmas game, he had already wondered that Li Lai was not as ignorant and fearless as the rumors said, and even looked more like a qualified team coach.

And the words just now made Xiao Hua completely change his view of Li Lai.

He believes that the other party is a person with a high degree of thought and depth, and making good use of it may be of great help to his future career.

"Li, I agree with your point of view, I will read the referee report later."

"However, if something like this happens again in the future, you can submit the materials to the alliance headquarters or call me directly."

"I will deal with these matters fairly and justly."

On the second day, all members of the Bucks boarded a plane to Portland.

The devil's four-way trip is still going on, and next they will challenge the Trail Blazers, who have a remarkable record this season.

"Last season's Trail Blazers were only tenth in the Western Conference record, but this season they scored No.4 in the Western Conference where there are many heroes!"

"The reason is that they finally waited for their No. [-] pick, Greg Oden."

Tyronn Lue opened the pre-match report and talked about the current situation of the Blazers.

Greg Oden, this is a player Li Lai has always been very curious about.

Fans in the previous life once boasted about him, and some people even said that if this guy can develop healthily in the NBA, then he will definitely be the No.1 in the future league and the existence of the top ten superstars in history!
Of course, fans have always been the most bloody when they see a very unfortunate player.

However, because of this, in his previous life, Li Lai went to watch the video of Auden in college.

"The ability to grab rebounds is amazing, especially on offensive rebounds. Even Horford and Noah can't limit his rebounds."

"On the defensive end, his contribution to the team is even more exaggerated. No matter single defense or assist defense, Oden is the top existence in the college league.

Therefore, in terms of team leadership, he is also better than the University of Texas team with a better lineup led by Durant. "

"On the personal offensive end, Oden's two-handed hooks on the left and right waists are very threatening, and his low-post backs are extremely efficient. The biggest shortcoming is that his mid-range shots are very unstable."

Li Lai breathed a sigh of relief.

No wonder Durant's player report clearly stated in the draft that year: If this guy appeared in the past ten years, he would have been directly selected as the No. [-] pick about nine or eight times, but unfortunately he appeared in the This year.

The expectations of the fans are not entirely groundless.

But even so, Li Lai is still cautious about Oden's ability, because the later Andrew Wiggins is a typical example.

That guy was even proclaimed as a rare basketball genius during the draft, and his talent was even higher than Joe's.

But in the next 8 years, such a talented and outstanding genius has not even been to the All-Stars.

"Of course, many people have blamed the Huskies, but if the Warriors still can't develop him into an All-Star, then many excuses may not be justified."

In addition to Oden, Li Lai also saw two of the future Blazers, Nicholas Batum and LaMarcus Aldridge.

Batum is the same type of player as George Hill. It is definitely not realistic to want him to be the cornerstone of the team or the second or third head of the team.

But because this type of player has balanced plug-and-play abilities, coupled with good basketball IQ, and particularly good tactical effects, they are very popular with coaches.

"Batum is definitely the most important part of the Trail Blazers' tactical system."

And the other Aldridge is much more powerful. The future 7-time All-Star, a top offensive player, and his mid-range and low-post singles skills have caused many teams a headache.

Tyronn Lue continued: "In addition to the above players, the Trail Blazers also have a very fierce young leader, Huang Mambaroy."

call!
Li Lai let out a long sigh.

"Roy, he is indeed a ruthless person."

Rose Garden Stadium.

The fans of Tear City were extremely excited, cheers and shouts were endless.

Because their team is No.4 in the Devil's West.

When Li Lai came to the court, he immediately spotted the players of the Trail Blazers, so he looked over them curiously.

【Greg Oden】

【Height 213cm, Weight 124kg, Armspan 224cm】

【Speed ​​82 Strength 80 Layup 75】

[Short shot 85, medium shot 60, long shot 20]

[Dunk 80, Pass 70, Control 60]

[Defense 88 rebounds 96 blocks 85]

[ability value 85, potential value 95]

"It seems that Oden's reputation is not for naught. He has such ability in his second year as a rookie, and his potential value has reached an exaggerated 95."

Under the protection of the Trail Blazers this season, Oden averaged only 21 minutes of playing time per game, which is equivalent to only two-thirds of the playing time of normal starters.

But even so, Oden averaged 9 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block per game in a limited time.

If it is converted into a standard 35 minutes, that is a proper double-double average per game.

More importantly, in terms of high-level defensive efficiency, with Oden on the court, the Trail Blazers' points per 7 possessions were [-] points higher than when Oden was not on the court.

This is his personal influence!

And Roy lived up to the reputation of the Yellow Mamba.

[ability value 89, potential value 90]

"The Trail Blazers now have twin towers inside, with Aldridge as the main attacker and Oden as the main defender."

"There are Huang Mambaroy and the tactical initiator Batum on the outside."

"Plus a qualified starting point guard Steve Blake averaging 11 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists per game."

"With such a perfectly matched lineup, it's no wonder that they can make such a name in the West."

Tyronn Lue looked at Li Lai with some concern, because the Blazers' lineup restrained the Bucks.

Especially those two terrifying inside twin towers, the lethality to the Bucks' inside line may be even more terrifying than Yao Ming and Duncan when they were pounding in the penalty area.

Game start.

Regular starters for the Bucks: Westbrook, George Hill, Artest, Villanueva and Yi Jianlian.

Trail Blazers starting: point guard Steve - Blake, shooting guard Roy, small forward Batum, power forward Aldridge and center Oden.

Midline jump ball.

Oden took the first wave of the ball with an absolutely terrifying bounce.

Yi Jianlian, who jumped the ball with him, was dumbfounded. This is the highest jumper he has ever seen among the center forwards, and he looks very strong with his tendons.

Captain Yi Jian sighed, "Looks like tonight's game is another hand-to-hand fight."
