Reboot McGrady

Chapter 92

(Thank you Libra? for the 500 rewards, and thanks for the rewards from the sunrise, the east and the west!)
In the NBA 2001-02 season, Atlanta's first regular season game officially started on October 2001, 10. They first played an away game and collided with the Mosaic team.

Carlisle's starting lineup is led by McGrady's core, with Billups, Jason Terry, Rasheed Wallace, and Ben Wallace.

On the side of the mosaic, Steve Francis held his head high, "This is our home field, we have to defend the home field! Guys, follow me, go!"

He was a scoring point guard, partnered with "Old Cat" Cutino Mobley, Glenn Rice, Kenny Thomas and Kevin Cato.

These players, if they were Rockets fans back then, should be familiar with them.Sadly, times have changed.The rocket became a mosaic, and everything was different.Looking back, it was actually Yao Ming that the fans supported.

Daben and Cato jumped the ball, and Daben actually won the 211cm Cato, and was the first to touch the ball. I don't know how he did it with his bounce speed.

Kevin Cato was a rookie in the same year as Tracy McGrady. He was picked by the Mavericks with the 15th overall pick in the first round, and later moved to the Portland Trail Blazers and came to Houston last year.

The offense started, and Billups controlled the rhythm of the advance.

He knows that the overall feeling of the first 20 games is to drive the team to run in and must play out the chemical reaction. Only when the ball can run smoothly can the team have a record.

With a rigorous tactical run, McGrady took the lead, moved as an ordinary player, and stretched the space.

Terry was very excited. After holding the ball, he wanted to attack directly, but Rasheed roared, persuaded him to come down, and gave the ball to Ben's position again.Big Ben moved to the center of Rashid.

Rasheed immediately shifted again, continuously mobilizing the opponent's defensive players. In front of McGrady, Glenn Rice didn't know where to go.

McGrady took his time, aimed at the basket and shot, and made a hit!
The first wave of attack took nearly 22 seconds. I was very patient. In fact, I had several chances before, but I didn't choose to make a move.

Carlisle expressed satisfaction with Billups' control for the first time, and looked at Thibodeau, "How is it? Mosaic is a pretty good opponent, just sharpening our rhythm."

"The next step is to look at the defense."

Facing Billups, Steve Francis wanted to use his strength to force him, but Billups was not slow and stronger, and directly blocked Francis' position.

No way, pass the ball.It fell into Rice's hands, and Rice raised his hand to cast, but was slapped out by McGrady.Terry received the ball, rushed forward frantically, and succeeded in a fast break layup.

Back at halftime, he quickly thanked McGrady, "Boss, beautiful block."

"Fine, go ahead. Play defense."

Terry's defense is okay, league average, but his offense is significantly better.

This time, being broken on Terry's side, Mobley made a beautiful mid-range shot to break the duck egg for Mosaic.

Billups looked at McGrady, and when McGrady pressed his hands, he understood the meaning of the boss and continued to be steady.

Slowly polish the running tactics, and then try to get to the open space before shooting.This is the process of running in, and only in the official competition will it be quickly absorbed.Become a conscious player.

Carlisle and Stotts looked at each other, and they all had the same thought in their eyes, this Billups is worth it.

McGrady didn't attack much. He made a few beautiful pull-ups, and when he couldn't open the situation, he broke through to the inside. He rarely saw the crazy breakthrough moves of last season, and even played tricks with defensive players inside.

"McGrady's arsenal has been enriched again. His current inside footsteps are very smooth. As long as he polishes it for a while, he can become a regular scoring method. It's really amazing." Barkley praised, "I'm looking forward to seeing McGrady's back. For singles, before the media quietly spread the news about Tracy McGrady, almost all of his vacations are in special training."

"Oh? It seems that McGrady wants to achieve results in the new season. Think about it, the Eagles almost replaced the entire team for him. If he can't lead the team to achieve results, he will be nailed to the pillar of shame."

While speaking, McGrady received a long pass from Billups.This is a backcourt rebound, and the fast break is the first time. The team has trained many times before the game.

When McGrady received the ball, he was already within the three-point line of Mosaic's half court. He made a three-step layup and leaped high without dribbling at all.

The battle ax smashed, and the atmosphere at the scene was ignited.Even in Mosaic's home court, there are still many fans cheering for him.

"McGrady's movements seem to be more chic. Every movement of his holding the ball makes people feel beautiful. This is a lot of hard work."

In this game, the head coaches of many teams are paying attention.

Pat Riley's face was ashen, with a little unwillingness in his eyes, "Stan, do you think McGrady has been injured? He recovered too well."

Larry Brown is also paying attention to McGrady. Other laymen don't know the potential of the Eagles, but he can see through it at a glance.If the Eagles play worthwhile, it will become their biggest obstacle to dominating the Eastern Conference.

"McGrady's skills are more refined. And he can drive his teammates to improve. This is the most amazing thing. If he is given time, he will create a new dynasty."

He thought about his own players, none of them could stop McGrady.Trarif, who defeated McGrady last season, has been sold to the Heat and has become a new opponent.

In the west, the old Zen master is there, and he doesn't know what to think.Popovich couldn't care less about watching the game, and reminded his assistant to help him edit McGrady's performance, which is a difficult opponent.

However, after the Eagles took the lead in the first quarter, they continued to adjust the lineup, with different staffing and different tactics.Many tactical moves are not even familiar to the players, and they are easily intercepted by Mosaic.

The opponent took the opportunity to counterattack, and the two sides fought fiercely, with you coming and going.The Eagles also made a lot of mistakes, many coordination mistakes.

McGrady had 3 turnovers in the half, but he was not in a hurry and continued to pull his teammates.The scores of both sides rose alternately.

Steve Francis made explosive moves and scored several consecutive high-difficulty scores. He actually overtook the score at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Moreover, the cooperation between him and Mobley expanded the point difference to 5 points, full of hope of winning.

The Marseille team, not to be bad, is such a belief.

They wanted to win, and Francis' performance made the entire Compaq Center stadium boil, and many fans screamed Francis' name loudly.

Hearing the deafening shouts, Francis raised his head, like a general returning from victory, very majestic.

Carlisle didn't want to give up this victory, and made player adjustments again, McGrady and Billups appeared again.

The main force basically returned, Terry rested off the court, and Jackson replaced him.He has only one task, which is to stare at the opponent's Mobley.

"Guys, let's bring the victory back." McGrady looked at the court, winning.

The team's performance today is still immature, but the potential can be seen.As long as everyone releases their characteristics, it will be a top team in the league.
