I'm not really a brutalist striker

Chapter 237 237. Deal!Reinforce the flaws!Suter has a new helper!
That night, a lot of sports news about Souter was published all over the world. He also won the wonderful five best balls launched by ESPN that day. Today he is the only protagonist in the sports world.

30 points in a single game can no longer be called a high score, and it seems too overshadowed by Suter's 71 points in a single game.

The first four of ESPN's five best shots were all dunks. Suter dunked two of his own and assisted teammate Josh Smith to dunk two.

The best goal of the game that day was quite different. It played all of Suter's goals throughout the game, especially the 10 three-pointers from the outside line, which were played one by one as the finale of the video.

The current NBA single-game three-point record is created by Raptors power forward Marshall. In that game, he made a total of 12 three-pointers. Suter was only two goals away from tying the three-point record. This is true in the eyes of outsiders. Some regrets.

In addition, Nuggets center Marcus Camby has also been questioned by many people, because he once won the league's block leader, and before the start of this season, he also told the media that he wanted to win the honor of the best defensive player , The paper lineup configuration of the Nuggets is also considered a strong team in the West. As a result, the game was played so that many people felt that Marcus Camby's defensive efficiency was seriously overestimated.

Except that this guy can block shots, his defensive efficiency is not as strong as people see.

Many media also compared Souter with the "big shark" O'Neal. They believed that Souter's 71 points in a single game was not only more efficient than O'Neal's 61 points in a game, but even crushed O'Neal in many aspects. Pressure, except rebounding.

O'Neal grabbed seven offensive rebounds at the time, and in addition to many second-chance points, O'Neal also got 7 free throw attempts. O'Neal took more shots than Suter, because Suter took half as many free throws as he did.

There are many media comparing Souter's 71 points in a single game with O'Neal and Jordan, but no media compares Souter's 71 points with David Robinson, thinking that the two are not comparable at all.

The whole world knows that David Robinson is a pure stat brush, and it was done in the last game of the regular season to compete for the scoring champion. The defensive intensity and offensive efficiency encountered by the two sides on the field are not at the same level. Take David Robinson Comparing with Suter is more like a mockery and insult.

那场比赛大卫-罗宾逊全场一共出手了41次投篮，另外还有25次罚球，最终才勉强砍下71分14篮板5助攻2封盖，还有全场最多的8次失误。

If Suter took 41 shots and 25 free throws, he could even score more than 90 points.

Suter will never check the data in the last game of the regular season. He must do it early. He thinks it is best to check the data to a relatively high number before the All-Star Weekend. , to avoid injuries, prepare in advance for the upcoming playoffs, and help teammates find their offensive feeling by the way.

At that time, if someone wants to compete with him for the scoring title, and his performance in the first half is mediocre, but the second half starts to explode, there is a high probability that he will be regarded as a data brush by the outside world.

After all, at the end of the regular season, everyone is recharging their energy for the playoffs, and each team will arrange for the main players to rest for random reasons. It is hard not to be caught in this kind of game intensity that is not as good as the preseason. The outside world thinks it is a brush.

Moreover, if Suter plays with a high ball possession rate throughout the season, his teammates will easily develop the habit of relying on him when entering the playoffs, and he will not be able to stand up to help the team at critical moments.

Although personal statistics are important, Suter must also take the Eagles as a whole into consideration. If the team wants to win the championship, it is impossible for the team to rely on him alone. Only when more people stand up to help him can Suter lead the team. The team won the game more easily.

At present, he has taken the initiative in public opinion. Unless O'Neal can also play a performance close to 70 points this season, the No.1 position in the league is destined to alternate between the old and the new.

In addition, Suter also learned from general manager Rick Sander that the league is currently holding an emergency meeting, and the content of the meeting is to lift Suter's suspension for the All-Star Weekend to see if it can be replaced by The huge fine gave Suter the opportunity to participate in this year's All-Star Weekend.

Since Souter made a big shot with Artest and others in the All-Star game last season, this incident caused quite a stir at the time, and the league immediately made corresponding penalties. Ster and Suter have been suspended for one year. Even if they are selected for the All-Star Game this season, they are not allowed to appear on the All-Star Weekend.

At that time, some people felt that the punishment given by the league was too light. In addition to the fine of tens of thousands of dollars, they only suspended the three players from the All-Star game, but did not issue any punishment for the regular season.

But looking at it now, this matter still has some impact on the three, because Souter, O'Neill and Artest all have the opportunity to be selected for the All-Star team again this season.

Up to now, Artest's personal performance is average, and whether he can be selected is still open to question, but O'Neal and Souter have basically reserved the Eastern All-Star seats. For these two young players who like to show off, Not being able to participate in the All-Star Game is indeed a torment.

The most important thing is that Suter's current popularity is ridiculously high, and his growth rate has far exceeded the expectations of league president David Stern. No one thought that Suter would have such a big change in just two seasons. The change, from a second-round pick to a super giant who can compete with "Shark" O'Neal for No. 1 in the league.

In addition, Suter's playing style on the court is very popular, and has already created a lot of income for the league. If he can participate in the All-Star Game, the tickets will definitely sell better and the attention will definitely increase. higher.

From the perspective of interests, league president David Stern naturally hopes to lift the All-Star suspension imposed on Souter and change it to a huge fine of [-] US dollars, which can be regarded as an alternative version of killing chickens and monkeys.

However, this matter still needs to be approved by the board of directors, so Stern is currently discussing with the board of directors to see if this matter can be achieved.

If Souter can really lift the All-Star ban with the help of David Stern, he will have a very high chance of becoming the final All-Star vote king this season.

The next day, the North American media continued to report news related to Suter. Even Stern, the president of the league, expressed surprise in an interview. He was really surprised. Needing the guidance of the league and the tone of the media has already suppressed all the favorites of the same draft.

As much as those geniuses disappointed him, Suter's performance surprised him as much. It seems that the alliance can only concentrate its resources on Suter now, promoting the slogan of the new king taking over and waiting for others to challenge, because other people seem to challenge Su Te No special qualifications.

The only thing that makes Stern regretful is that Suter is neither black nor white, otherwise the league will definitely devote all its publicity resources to him, and there is no need to hype other stars.

In this situation, Stern can neither deliberately suppress Suter, but also must find a way to support several other local stars, otherwise the league will enter an era ruled by Suter, which is extremely detrimental to the future development of the NBA. .

In the evening, the influence of Suter's 71 points in a single game began to ferment, because reporters from all over the world would interview some stars who had a match today, asking them to comment on Suter and his personal performance of scoring 71 points in a single game.

Kobe, who was ravaged by Suter in the finals last season, said: "He is the best young player I have ever seen. I have seen two vulture 60+ performances. It is hard to imagine that this is just him. The second season of his career. The vultures will show fearlessness in the face of any opponent, and I am very optimistic that the eagle can defend the title this season."

Kobe's praising Souter in front of the media is a bit of a broken pot. The Lakers started off extremely hips. They have already suffered three consecutive losses in the season, and they just lost to the underdog Utah Jazz today.

He couldn't figure out what the team was playing, and there were no teammates on the field to help him. All he could do was take the ball one-on-one and witness the team's losses with his own eyes.

When the striker Odom is on the court, the Lakers still have someone who can organize the offense, but in the game against the Utah Jazz, Odom accidentally sprained his ankle and is expected to be absent for a period of time in the future. It is definitely a fatal blow.

The team has no tactics at all on the offensive end. The famous coach Rudy Tomjanovich has been emphasizing defense. The offensive end is to let Kobe play alone, and the others are constantly interspersed and covered to find opportunities. The key is that the Lakers still defend. Can't help but played very badly on both ends of the offense and defense.

The San Antonio Spurs, a traditional strong team in the Western Conference, also lost. They lost 82 to 91 to the Golden State Warriors in an upset, starting with three wins and one loss.

The process of this game was very exciting. "Big Beard" Baron Davis and "one of the troika" Tony Parker exploded on the field. Baron Davis finally scored 37 points, while Tony - Parker also scored 35 points, but the Spurs still lost the game in an upset when other Warriors players played better.

After the game, in addition to asking Tony Parker to talk about his feelings about the matchup with Baron Davis, the reporters asked the Spurs players and coaches to comment on Suter.

Argentine star Manu Ginobili is the starting shooting guard for the Spurs. He has played a very strong performance this season, and all the statistics are career highs. He was the subject of key interviews and expressed a lot of pressure.

Facing the camera, Ginobili, who still has hair on his head, sighed: "I am surprised that the Vulture can play this kind of data. I feel a headache when I think that I am likely to face him against the Eagles. Last time When the Vulture was still playing power forward this season, we were not very successful in defending him. This season he is stronger and has transformed into a swingman. I can only do my best to prevent him from playing explosively. data."

Spurs coach Popovich said that he has always been very optimistic about Suter, believing that Suter has become one of the most difficult super scorers in the NBA.

However, Popovich did not look down on his own team other than praising Souter. He even said that the Spurs have the strength to beat the Eagles. If the two teams can really meet in the finals, the Spurs will definitely be the winner with the last laugh .

今天的重头戏是热火客场103：98击败了克里夫兰骑士，“大鲨鱼”奥尼尔出战39分钟，个人狂砍46分12篮板2助攻3封盖。

Since O'Neal didn't have a single assist, the reporters felt that he wanted to compare with Suterby, wanted to score high points, and don't lose face in front of Suter.

But O'Neal's scoring is obviously not as high as Suter's. There are too many singles at the basket. High, even the "Flash" Wade, who ushered in the small pinnacle of his career, only scored 17 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

When O'Neal occupies too much possession on the offensive end, other Heat players naturally don't have many opportunities to perform.

Wade also implicitly expressed dissatisfaction with O'Neal's style of play after the game, thinking that O'Neal's style of play was hurting the team, and the Heat should play more teamwork on the court.

Originally, the Heat could have won the game more easily, but they let O'Neal's strong hits at the basket dragged until the last moment.

"Shark" O'Neill commented on Souter in an interview: "The Vulture is indeed very strong, he is a difficult guy to deal with, but if he thinks he has won us, it is definitely a big mistake. The Heat are also very strong. We I will find a way to deal with him, and let him know that blind arrogance will only lead to humiliation!"

The reporter asked: "You didn't even have an assist today, and you played solo under the basket many times. Is it to compete with the vultures?"

"No, it's not, I don't know why you guys have this idea, I just help the team when they need me to stand up and score, this is the way I lead the team to win. I don't deliberately compete with the vultures , Winning is the first, because the championship is more important than personal data."

O'Neal was very stubborn, and he firmly refused to admit that he had the idea of ​​​​competing with Suter on the court to score.

In fact, O'Neill has no idea in his heart. Suter is an undead beast. He has already experienced the horror of Suter in the finals last year.Although joining the Heat this year has changed the environment, O'Neal still does not have 100% confidence to lead the team to defeat the Eagles.

Even the second-year rookie Wade averaged 26 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists, 1.5 steals and 1 block per game in the first few games of the season. Still not confident, I don't know if the Heat can beat the defending champion Eagles.

Because his physical strength has dropped a lot since his peak period, the more games he plays, the worse it will be for the Heat. If he reaches the tiebreaker like last year, O'Neal thinks that he will probably "get on the bed", and the vulture will be fine. Running would definitely kill him.

But O'Neal, as No. 1 in the league in name, must not say anything that affects the morale of the team, so he must choose to be tough in front of the media.

Now he is under a lot of pressure. From Los Angeles in the west to Miami in the east, if he fails to lead the team to achieve results, the outside world will question his current ability to lead the team, and let the ambitious Suter take advantage of it in vain.

On November 11, when the league was still immersed in Suter's unsolvable performance of 6 points in a single game, the high-profile Atlanta Hawks suddenly announced an official news.

The Eagles officially issued a document saying that the team has officially reached a deal with the Chicago Bulls. In this deal, the team will send the sixth man Al Harrington + Boris Diaw + Smash Parker + 05 The first round of draft picks in exchange for the Bulls' potential rookie Kirk Hinrich + veteran Lawrence Fonder Burke.

The news of this transaction made many people in the outside world know that they could not understand the operations of the Eagles management.

You know, Harrington is a bench gangster who averaged about 15 points per game, and Boris Diaw, who was once called a parallel rookie by Eagles fans, also fulfilled his potential in the second half of last year, proving that Knowing that he is an outstanding potential rookie.

As for Smush Parker, although he was just an undrafted player signed by the Eagles with a low contract, the young "Grim Reaper" Parker also proved that he is a "professional streetball king" capable of competing in the NBA league. Even in a mid-range team, he can play the role of the team's sixth man and take on the offensive firepower of the bench.

As a result, the Eagles management packaged these three players with the 05 second-round pick in exchange for the Bulls' second-year rookie Kirk Hinrich not long after the start of the season. This made many people think that the Hawks general manager Rick - Sander is a lunatic, he would rather dismantle his winning team than gamble on Hinrich's potential.

即使二年级的辛里奇在新秀赛季就打出了场均12分3.5篮板7助攻和1.3抢断的数据，且高达39%的三分球命中率同样证明了自己是一位出色的外线投手，但辛里奇在新秀赛季的投篮命中率却只有38.6%，可以说是非常的低效。

After the start of the new season, although Hinrich has proved to the outside world that his personal strength has further improved in recent games, his shooting percentage still has not exceeded 40%, and he still cannot get rid of the label of low offensive efficiency. Last season's high 39% three-point shooting rate fell to 35.5%.

As for the veteran Lawrence Fonder Burke, no one cared about him at all, because everyone knew that this guy was a side sale, and it had no trading value at all if it was taken out alone.

The 34-year-old Fonder Burke's average personal data last season was as low as 2.7 points, 2 rebounds and 0.4 blocks. This kind of player basically does not have much commercial value except as an addition to the transaction.

Some experts believe that the Eagles will reach this deal with the Bulls, and even take out Boris Diaw and the sixth-man level Al Harrington to get Hinrich. With Hinrich's excellent perimeter defense and stable three-point shooting, I want Hinrich to play the role of the third master next to Souter, which can be regarded as a super enhanced version of Tyronn Lue.

It's just that Hinrich's ability to hold the ball is much better than that of Tyronn Lue, and this is only the second season of his career. Hinrich is still very young, and he still has a lot of potential to tap.

It seems that the Eagles are very confident in their ability to train rookies. They are confident that they will train Hinrich, who was traded with a big chip, into a better point guard than the Bulls, and even have a chance to become an All-Star player. .

Moreover, a player like Hinrich is very suitable to play next to Suter. He can shoot suddenly on the offensive end, top the outside line on the defensive end, and can even switch to the third position who is taller than himself. It can greatly improve the backcourt strength of the Eagles' starting lineup and make up for the defect that the starting players of the new season rely too much on Suter.

Kirk Hinrich is 1 meters tall and weighs 93 kilograms. His playing style is a bit like the "glove" Payton when he was young. Both are excellent perimeter blockers, but Hinrich's three-point shooting ability is better. However, the finishing efficiency at the basket is not as stable as that of Payton when he was young. He often has a ghost game and his performance fluctuates slightly.

In his peak season, Hinrich averaged 16.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 1.3 steals per game, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 41.5%. It reached 2.1%. He is a point guard who can attack, shoot, and defend in the true sense.

In a parallel world, Hinrich was selected to the All-Defensive Team in the 06-07 season, and was the best defensive player in the league at the time except Kidd and Paul.

The Eagles management just fell in love with Hinrich's excellent defensive ability, and his offensive ability of both shooting and shooting. They think that Hinrich is the "super enhanced version" of Director Lu, and he is very suitable for Suter's side. play ball.

His joining can just make up for the weakness of the Hawks' starting lineup in the new season, making the defending champion Hawks more star-studded.

In addition, the Eagles have a very deep lineup for the new season. Even if Al Harrington and Boris Diaw are traded away, they still have the sixth man Derek Anderson, veteran Armstrong, Brent - Several great players are available, including Barry and Chris Crawford.

It can be said that after the completion of this deal, although the strength of the Hawks' bench has been weakened, it is far from the point where the strength of the bones is broken. On the contrary, the strength of the starting lineup has been improved visible to the naked eye.

The Eagles hope to improve the team's starting strength in the new season, to liberate Suter in a certain period of time, and prevent Suter from being so tired during the regular season.

The reason why the Bulls chose to trade Hinrich is because the team just got the talented guard Ben Gordon in this year's draft. Although the two have little influence on style, the team obviously wants to tilt resources. To Ben Gordon.

In addition, the general manager of the Bulls, Parker Johns, has just taken office, and he is eager to make some achievements. Parker and others have such a big appeal to the Bulls.

In this transaction, the Eagles and Bulls can be regarded as a win-win in the true sense. Both sides get what they want, and they both get what they want. It makes up for the team's current shortcomings and has the opportunity to play a better team in the future. Performance.

The transaction happened suddenly. Even Suter didn't expect that general manager Rick Sander's execution ability would be so strong.

The night before the trade took place, Suter booked a hotel for the likes of Boris Diaw, Smush Parker and Al Harrington, especially Diaw and Parker, both of whom were part of the team. One of the heroes who won the championship last year, the NBA, as a business league, naturally has a banquet, but Suter still sincerely bid farewell to every teammate who left the Eagles.

At the same time, Suter also greeted Hinrich after he reported to the team the next day. In addition to the players and coaching staff, even the general manager Rick Sander and the team's vice president of operations also came. , showing the importance of new aid Kirk - Hinrich.

Hinrich was flattered by the cards played by the Eagles. He didn't know how he could be so valued by the defending champion Eagles.

Especially the "Quasi-League No.1" in front of him is not at all pretentious, which made Hinrich quickly integrate into the atmosphere at the dinner table. I am glad that I can join the defending champion Eagles in the golden rising period of his career. team.

And Kirk Hinrich, who is also only a sophomore, will also become the right-hand man next to "Quasi-League No.1" Souter in the new season, and join hands with the Eagles to attack and defend the title together!
