NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 612 A Destructive Offensive
Starting the game, Wang Zelin led his team to the exit to meet the Wizards.

"Hey, Wang, welcome to Washington." John Wall took the initiative to greet.

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, Wang Zelin looked at the opponent's lineup and asked with a smile, "John, tell me, how many points do you plan to lose?"

"..."

Wall took a look, this guy really is still so arrogant.

But I can also understand that if he can achieve the same achievements as Wang Zelin in the first four years of his career, he will probably be even crazier than his opponent.

"Humph!"

On the side of the Wizards, someone snorted dissatisfiedly.

Wang Zelin took a look, it was Paul Pierce, but he ignored it.

The current alliance is no longer the era of those old guys.

Then wait until the game, he will let Pierce have a clear understanding.

At the start of the game, Wang Zelin and Gortat jumped the ball, and they stood together.

"You can stay away from me, and be careful not to be accidentally injured."

Before the referee tossed the ball, Wang Zelin suddenly spat a trash talk at the Polish hammer in front of him.

This sentence shocked Gortat, and he couldn't help recalling his first encounter at the London Olympics in 12. Wang Zelin, who was a fledgling at that time, scored 35 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks under his own defense. After that, he was out of control in the NBA.

Every encounter in the NBA, without exception, ended in a disastrous defeat, and a sudden trash talk made him feel terrified.

At this time, the ball was thrown into the air by the referee, and Wang Zelin jumped up to push the ball away.

Gortat didn't move at all, and hadn't reacted at all.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

In the live broadcast room of the court station, Zhang Lili laughed so hard that he bent over.

"What are you doing on the other side? Hasn't the Polish Hammer woke up yet? Forgot that this is a game..."

After laughing, Yu Jia couldn't help complaining.

On the court, Wang Zelin was not polite, and rushed past Gortat after landing.

He has always been known as a tough guy, so he made a timely supplementary defense and rushed to Wang Zelin's side.

Even though he knew that the player on the opposite side was the best center forward in the league today, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to give the opponent a blood cap!
Wang Zelin rushed to the basket with Nene on his shoulders.

At this time, Matthews, who was holding the ball from the outside and was about to walk away, suddenly noticed Wang Zelin's position and gave the ball in.

Perhaps because he hadn't played for a long time, the pass of the ball was a bit obvious, and the direction seemed to be high.

As soon as he passed the ball, the rest of the Wizards returned to the basket to double-team Wang Zelin.

"I go!"

Seeing this scene, Zhang Lili swears directly.

Including the civil war, the five Wizards players who suddenly rushed up all rushed around Wang Zelin and began to encircle him.

The overly obvious passing target gave them a chance to double-team.

Wang Zelin never expected that the Wizards would have a Super Spurs today, no, even if they played against the Spurs, they would not have been treated like this.

At this time, his back was facing the basket, one meter away from the basket, without any hesitation, he immediately pulled it up on the spot.

At this moment, Nene behind him and Pierce next to him were secretly pulling his jersey.

But even so, it didn't stop him from getting up!

boom--!
The ball hit the rebound and bounced back, just in time to be caught by the other Wang Zelin, and then slammed into the basket.

"Xie Te! This fucking can catch it..."

"I'm afraid you are not a precious thing!"

On the sidelines, the Wizards' substitute players and head coach Randy Whitman were all moved, holding their heads in their hands in disbelief, watching this scene on the court.

"Fuck!"

"NB!"

"This ball is too hard!"

On the other side, the court duo and the Chinese fans on the other side of the ocean also immediately uttered beautiful Chinese words.

……

"Special meow!"

One fell to the ground and couldn't stand firmly. Wang Zelin fell to the floor. Fortunately, he landed on his back and took protective measures in advance. In the end, there was nothing serious except for a little numbness in his buttocks.

The referee didn't blow the whistle either. After all, the Wizards were surrounded by five players just now. Pierce and Nene's small movements of stealing the jerseys close to each other couldn't penetrate their eyes.

Most importantly, under such circumstances, Wang Zelin actually scored!

The referee is also a human being, everyone was dumbfounded this time, and forgot the punishment for a while.

The Trail Blazers players rushed up one after another. After seeing Wang Zelin signaled that he was fine, Aldridge and Batum pulled him up, and everyone retreated quickly.

After reacting, Wall looked at Wang Zelin's leaving back, and complained about "animals" in his heart, but he served the ball and pushed forward with the ball crazily.

After crossing the center line, Lillard's block was ushered in.

At the top of the arc, Lillard opened his arms and was just about to get close to the body. Unexpectedly, Wall suddenly accelerated, and he was suddenly passed by.

Needless to say, as a rare player in NBA history who was selected as a point guard with the No. [-] pick, his physical fitness is definitely at a historical level.

Before suffering the two almost devastating injuries of a torn cruciate ligament and a torn Achilles tendon, Wall, who was at his peak, could be said to be the fastest player in the active league.

Especially the speed of his first step is jaw-dropping!
The reason why Wall was undisputedly selected as the No. 10 pick in the [-] NBA Draft is that in addition to his speed, his body control and coordination ability are also top-notch in active service.

Breaking through, as soon as he rushed to the three-point line, Wall encountered Batum's supplementary defense.I saw that he was calm in the face of danger, stopped suddenly, slowed down, slapped, dribbled the ball under his crotch, and swayed left and right very quickly, and then cheated Batum's defensive center of gravity with a fake move, and passed another person from the right.

Then, look directly at the Blazers basket, and continue to attack the basket with the ball fearlessly!
"what!!!"

Accompanied by a roar, Wall took a heavy step, jumped on one foot, and punched a tomahawk that couldn't be more standard...

"Driving to the rim from John Wall, he's flying, he's going to dunk, he's going to..."

Suddenly, the Wizards' on-site commentator seemed to be choked by someone, and his voice stopped abruptly.

But at this moment, Wang Zelin suddenly burst out from the flank, jumped on his back heels, top-notch bullet speed, super long arms, and finally locked on to Wall...

With a slap, the ball flew out of bounds with his slap, causing the surrounding audience to scream incessantly.

"Beautiful chasing cap! Wang stepped forward and defended John Wall's almost guaranteed dunk!"

At this time, Barkley couldn't help roaring.

"This……"

Turning around, Wall's face was full of shock.

How could it be possible that he was hated?
How can this guy Wang Zelin's assist defense data be so fast?

This unscientific!

Seeing Wall who was speechless in shock, Wang Zelin, who had successfully blocked the shot, still pointed at the opponent: "Listen, the basket is my territory! If you are still obsessed with it, you are welcome to continue to challenge!"

"Hmph, I don't believe you can maintain such a high-intensity defense all the time, just wait and see!"

The passionate dialogue opened by the bosses of both sides is almost the epitome of this game.In the next few minutes, the two teams played back and forth, and the scores rose alternately, but the Blazers gradually opened up the score with a stronger starting lineup.

After the 8th minute of the first quarter, both sides made substitution adjustments.

Terry Stotts took Beverly, Connet Lee, Anthony Morrow and Jokic, and replaced 4 starters, leaving only Wang Zelin to stay on the court.

Since the Wizards' strongest point is that John Wall's best offense is to attack the basket, keeping him on the court can effectively contain Wall's attack to the basket.

On the Wizards' side, Randy Whitman kept Wall and Bill's outside two-gun combination on the court, and then took on Raschel Butler, Kevin Seraphim and Drew Gooden.

On paper, the Wizards seem to have more firepower from outside.Both Wall and Bill have a firepower output close to 20+ per game.

Now the score is 19:24, and the Wizards are only 5 points behind their opponents. If the two of them can open up on the outside and equalize the difference, then Randy Whitman is confident of winning.

Well, I don't know where he got his confidence.

It's a good idea, after all, you can't just sit around and dream about others.

The result was that, on the first ball after a timeout, Wall hit the iron outside the three-point line, and the trajectory was ridiculously crooked.Offensive and defensive transition, 2 meters 08 substitute center Drew Gooden was dunked by Wang Zelin, and he scored 2+1.

Then, after Bill's pick-and-roll, he broke through to the middle distance and hit a jumper with an emergency stop, barely stopping the bleeding for the team.

Trail Blazers attack.

Wang Zelin supported from a high position, assisted Beverly to cut in without the ball, and made a successful layup, opening the point difference again.

Immediately after the next round, Drew Gooden was given another block, and he turned around and made a fast break.

In the end, Connett Lee, who ran out of the open space, was found. The latter caught the ball decisively outside the three-point line in the right bottom corner and pulled it up, hollow into the net.

Randy Whitman found that the momentum seemed to be a little off, and the game plan seemed to be deviating.However, the Blazers launched a series of devastating offensives after adjusting their strategy.

At the end of the first quarter, at 34:23, the Blazers took an 11-point lead.

首节最后4分钟，开拓者全队6投5中，其中三分球3中2，相当高效的砍下了10分。

Moreover, they did an excellent job on the defensive end, allowing their opponents to only score 4 points at the last minute.

"Wang Zelin's performance was terribly stable. In the 12 minutes of the first quarter, he scored 5 points on 4 of 10 shots! 10 points in a single quarter! Well, I admit that this kind of performance may not be surprising to him, and everyone is even used to it. But because of this, I think that Wang Zelin's performance on the court this season is too stable, almost reaching the point of inhumanity!"

"Hey, you seem to be missing something."

"Oh yeah, almost forgot, he also grabbed 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks..."

In the commentary seat, Kenny Smith and Barkley kept expressing emotion while looking at the data sheet.

In the first quarter of the game, the Blazers' starting five all scored. Wang Zelin scored 10 points, Lillard scored 5 points, Aldridge scored 4 points, Batum and Matthews also scored 3 points each.

In addition, Beverly, Connet Lee, and Jokic on the bench also had their own scores.

In other words, in the first quarter of the game, a total of 8 players in the Trail Blazers contributed scoring data on the court.

In this case, it is not understandable why they led by 11 points in the first quarter.

"Damn it, is the gap with the other side really that big? I don't believe it..."

After the first quarter, Wall, who was on the bench, cursed to himself.

During the intermission, Terry Stotts emphasized defense, while the opposite Wizards coach Randy Whitman emphasized offense.

At the start of this quarter, both sides have a full starting lineup.

"Steady guys, don't forget, our goal this year is the playoffs! This is our home court, we must not just let the opponent take away today's victory!"

Seeing his teammates depressed, Wall shouted.

From the perspective of the team leader, Wall is actually a good boss. The team is in crisis at this time, and he is determined to start fighting like a leader.

At least on this point, Wall is indeed much better than Irving next door.

However, facing the huge gap in the lineups of the two sides, Wall did not play the perfect heroism performance he dreamed of, let alone lead the team to make a comeback.

After the first three quarters, at 93:65, the Wizards fell behind by almost 30 points.

On the bench, Wall covered his forehead, and Bill on the side didn't know how to persuade him. He could only stare blankly at the huge score difference on the scoreboard just like Wall.

截止现在，沃尔在场上19投9中，拿到了22分5助攻3板1抢断。

At the same time, he is also the only player in the Wizards to score 20+ points.

In less than three quarters, he scored a quasi-20+5+5 data, which shows that he is really in excellent form today.

It is a pity that he still lacks a strong helper, and the Wizards have not had a second strong point to stand up for a long time.

Bill, the team's second-highest scorer, currently made 11 of 3 shots and 5 of 1 three-pointers. With free throws, he was in double figures and scored 11 points.

Apart from the two of them, the Wizards did not have a third player who scored in double figures today.

When the Wizards will face the pressure of the league's top defense from the defending champion Portland Trail Blazers, only Wall can match the intensity of this game.

As for Bill, it can barely count as 0.5.

Then, there will be no more...

Into the last quarter.

The Trail Blazers set up a full lineup as soon as they came up, and they are going to strike while the iron is hot and win tonight's game in one fell swoop.

For the Wizards, the pair of Wall and Bill naturally continued to play. In the starting lineup, in addition to the veteran Pierce, the insiders Nene and Gortat also stayed on the court.

It seems that the Wizards have not given up on this game.

It just didn't last long.

The first attack in the last quarter was the Trail Blazers. Although Wang Zelin, who handled the goal, failed to score against the double-team, it also allowed Gortat to receive the last foul of the game and immediately fouled out.

The lack of the Polish Hammer made the Wizards' already weak inside even worse.

Less than 3 minutes into the final quarter, Lillard hit a three-pointer from the outside, widening the point difference to 30 points, and the Wizards immediately called a timeout.

Then, under the destructive offensive of the Trail Blazers, the game quickly entered garbage time.
