Chapter 31 Crush the basketball dream!
At 5:58 in the evening, the two sides made their debut.

Trail Blazers starter: Rhodes, Hawkins, Harvey Grant, Clifford, Malone.

In this game, Hawkins, who had just been transferred, was directly put on the starting shooting guard.

First of all, Hawkins is much stronger than Aaron McGee. With him defending on the outside, the defensive system is stronger.

Secondly, the Grizzlies have just been formed, and there is a rotten fish and rotten shrimp, which is suitable for the team to run in.

Facing the Grizzlies, which were predicted to be the bottom of the league before the season, the coaching staff of the Trail Blazers directly used it as a training partner, wanting to try this theoretically balanced offensive and defensive lineup, and how it works.

The Grizzlies' starters are Greg Anthony, Theodore Edwards, Christopher Donnell King, Kenny Gardison and Benjamin.

They're all little-known tricks.

The only famous player in the Grizzlies is Byron Scott.

However, this player is at the end of his career, and there is no fuel in the tank, so he can only play as a substitute for the Grizzlies.

At 6:[-] p.m., the opening match officially began.

With the whistle of the referee, the ball was thrown into the air, and Malone easily won the jump ball with a small jump.

Pioneers strike first!
Recently, powerful new teammates have arrived, and the strength of the team has become stronger visible to the naked eye. Rhodes is in a good mood, and according to the arrangement of the coaching staff, he firmly controlled the ball to the frontcourt.

The other four started to run.

Hawkins, Clifford and Harvey Grant all pulled their opponents beyond the three-point line.

Although the Grizzlies are weak, they still have basic qualities, and they all follow their opponents.

With such a pull, the space is suddenly pulled apart.

The space inside the three-point line is wide enough to accommodate Barkley and O'Neal for ballroom dancing.

Malone ran to the waist, leaning on Benjamin with his back.

Glancing from the corner of the eye, the nearest defenders were all a long way away from him, and only one Benjamin guarded him.

It feels so cool to have only one personal defense!
Malone felt refreshed and made a gesture.

Rhodes immediately dropped the ball to Malone.

Malone jumped up to catch the ball.

By the time it lands, the distance between the feet has become larger, and they can directly and seamlessly connect with large strides and turn around.

While turning around, Malone's big elbow pinned to Benjamin's waist.

Benjamin, who had a tonnage difference of more than ten kilograms, was completely stuck by Ma Long's big elbow, and it was difficult to turn around!

Malone successfully turned to face the basket, straightened his right hand and put the ball into the basket.

Swish!
The Blazers easily scored 2 points.

Malone scored the first goal of his career just a few seconds after the opening.

The Huaguo reporter on the sidelines said excitedly: "This is the first goal of the Huaguo in the NBA!"

"At the same time, Malone broke many records!"

"Ma Long, who was born in November 1977, broke the records of the youngest player and the youngest starting player at the age of 11 years and 17 days!"

"Malon is making history!"

"This is one small step for Ma Long, but one giant leap for Huaguo basketball!"

The live DJ was also shouting record-breaking things.

Breaking the record made the fans enter the state and cheered wildly.

The decibels of the Rose Garden Arena are like waves, and the waves never drop.

In this environment, the Grizzlies have not been affected.

Anyway, it is the worst team, no matter how bad it is, it will go almost anywhere.

Grandpa is lying flat, what else can I do?
With this mentality, the Grizzlies played surprisingly well.

Grizzlies point guard Greg broke through Rhodes, faced Hawkins' pincer attack, and passed the ball to Theodore.

Theodore pulled up a jumper against Clifford, who had switched defenses.

2:2.

Carlesimo stood up and shouted: "Switch the defense faster!"

This ball has actually been defended very well.

Clifford has been switched to the front, and it is really hot for Grizzlies shooting guard Theodore to be able to score.

But if it is done better, Clifford has a chance to block directly or make it difficult for Theodore to even make a shot.

Tactics have to be worked out.

Carlesimo thought.

Facing the coach's call, Clifford gave an OK gesture.

After receiving Malone's serve, Rhodes "cut" and nodded reluctantly.

Advancing to the frontcourt, Rhodes made a false fax this time, broke through Greg's defense in one step, and went straight into the paint.

Benjamin was in excellent condition tonight, and he responded very quickly to make up for it.

Against Benjamin's defense, Rhodes jumped up, but received the ball in mid-air.

'Speed' Rhodes passes the ball from Benjamin's armpit to Benjamin's back.

The unguarded Ma Long received the ball, tiptoed to a windmill dunk in place!

boom!
The basket shakes.

2:4.

The Blazers are the home team, and the home team is behind the score.

Malone scored the second goal.

Watching Ma Long stepping on the ground to complete such a "super difficult" "fancy" dunk, the fans at the scene were all made to laugh.

This dunk is so personal!

The citizens of Wonderful City love it!
Malone put down the basket and returned to defense, brutally beat his chest muscles on the way, and high-fived Rhodes.

"It's beautiful."

"You look good too."

Rhodes suffocated a smile.

Ma Long didn't care about Rhode's ridicule and the fans' whistles.

Since his wingspan has gone through a long development period and has grown to 246cm, Malone can touch the basket while standing, and he only needs to tiptoe to dunk.

Since you can dunk dunk standing, why waste your energy to jump up?
Anyway, it's a slam dunk.

Perhaps this can become his personal characteristics.

Offensive and defensive transition, the Grizzlies attack.

After Greg broke through, the ball was given to Benjamin in the waist.

It may be that he felt a little embarrassed by being held up for a while, so this time Benjamin took the initiative to turn his back.

I can't stand it!
The little giant behind him was extremely tough.

His small back is not enough to soften the little giant.

The immobile Benjamin didn't give up, and tried to turn around and sway.

Embarrassing feints, stiff feet, and zombie jump shots
Ma Long couldn't stand it anymore, stretched out his long arms, and relying on his height advantage, he directly snatched the ball from Benjamin's hand!

Grab the hat on the front!

It's not a super insider.

Just a blue-collar center forward, what are you waiting for?

Grabbing the basketball, Rhodes and Hawkins quickly ran forward.

Malone aimed at the point, imitating Sabonis, grabbing the ball with one hand and throwing it to the frontcourt.

The basketball flew over the halfway line, over Hawkins' head, and landed directly on the rim.

duang~
The basketball bounced back.

Fortunately, the Grizzlies reacted very slowly, and there were only Hawkins and Rhodes in the frontcourt.

After Rhodes caught the ball and faced an empty basket, he didn't shoot and passed it to Hawkins next to him.

Hawkins made a layup.

Hawkins scored +2
Rhodes assist +1
Rhodes smiled with big white teeth.

Malone has a tactical retreat, and it is okay to maximize the data.

Isn't it afraid that the Grizzlies will explode after being extremely angry?
Uh, well, I'm really not afraid.

It turns out that in time and space, the Blazers' opening game was overturned by the super belly Grizzlies.

But with the addition of Malone and Hawkins, the Blazers' defensive strength has been reborn.

Come back?

Let me continue to lie down!
The Grizzlies couldn't defend.

Benjamin defends Malone alone, which is an open space for Malone.

The two of them flanked each other, Malone passed the ball back directly, Clifford made a three-pointer with a wide open space, and slashed the Grizzlies' big bear's paw.

Wanting to play a confrontation, the Blazers' quick flank attack completely suppressed the Grizzlies' outside line.

The addition of Hawkins has brought the strength of the perimeter defense to a first-class level, which is not something that players like the Grizzlies can break through.

Even if it breaks through, there is still a little giant with both height and speed behind it.

Count on Benjamin?
Ma Long single-handedly defended Benjamin, and sent out blood shots continuously, beating Benjamin with a look of doubt about his life.

He feels like his basketball dreams are shattered
Malone: ​​Basketball dream?My basketball dream is to break other people's basketball dreams!

It can't be prevented.

The outside line and the inside line can't get in.

After the first quarter, the score on the field has reached 16 to 36.

After just one quarter, the Blazers already led by 20 points.
