God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 500 True Core

Although Roy looked calm on the surface, he was very restless in his heart.In this young team, he is undoubtedly the one with the most junior qualifications. The league gave the Bobcats a second pick and it is over. In other words, he is the only rookie in this team.However, his treatment is different from most rookies, the team actually wants him as the core!
Before joining the NBA, it is not that Roy has served as the core of the team. Every time he has completed the task brilliantly, he has also done what the team leader should do.But he is now a professional player. Although he vowed before that he can take on this responsibility, he didn't know if he could lead the team well before he actually appeared in the game.

The only thing that reassures him is that under the hints of Jackson and Chang Wei, his teammates have no objection to him being the team leader. Even Rahim, who has played for 10 seasons, has no objection. .But this also made Roy feel a lot of pressure. He felt that only by doing the best as required in the game can he live up to the expectations of his teammates and coaches.

I have to say that some people are born with the ability to be a leader. Although Roy is just a rookie, with the help of the coaching staff, he quickly took over the core position of the team, and he played very well in the preseason. good.Of course, the intensity of the preseason games cannot be compared with the regular season, and more opponents are still playing soy sauce, and no one cares about the outcome.But Roy regards this place as a battlefield and the beginning of his career. He definitely doesn't want to let himself have any regrets.

I don't know if it's the bad taste of the league, but the Bobcats met the Pistons led by Wade in the first preseason game, which made Chang Wei feel a little embarrassed.However, he also wanted to see who was stronger, Roy or Wade. In his previous life, Wade naturally had higher achievements than Roy, and his career was much longer than Roy's, but in Chang Wei's view, the two Guys are still hard to tell.

Wade deserves to be a star who has been in the league for several seasons and won three championship rings. Now, whether it is technology, physical fitness or experience, he is at the peak of his career.Roy was deflated on Wade at the beginning, and he felt very humiliated by being intercepted for two consecutive rounds.But Roy has one advantage, that is, he is calm enough. If it were someone else, he must be thinking about getting back to the field, but he was able to stabilize and continue to organize the attack.

Originally, Wade was just going to play for fun, but now he is very interested in Roy.This made him look at the Bobcats' bench. Chang Wei sat there as if nothing happened. Wade had to admire Chang Wei's vision for picking rookies.Although Roy still looks good now, Wade sees himself in him.

Of course, Roy's style is very different from his, but he has a general style on the court, which is still very similar to himself.While thinking shamelessly, Wade exerted all his strength to fight Roy on the court.In fact, before the start of the game, Brown hoped that Wade would take it easy, and there was no need to play the preseason as a regular season, but now Wade is itchy and can't control so much.

In Wade's view, Roy's dribbling is not as dazzling as his own, but he is very stable, and he is good at playing the time difference, and uses fake moves well. For a rookie, having such a level is enough to be proud of.

However, Wade didn't expect that Roy's surprising thing is still to come. Logically speaking, as a shooting guard, he should try his best to collect statistics in the game, especially scoring. Otherwise, you, a shooting guard, will be useful. for what?However, Roy did the opposite. He played more like a point guard.Because of the existence of Big Ben, Roy seldom directly attacks the basket after the breakthrough, but likes to pass the ball to teammates who are in the open. Of course, his passing does not have so many fancy moves, just simple straight passes, The crotch or the fake shot, but the effect is quite good.

Driven by Roy, the Bobcats played impressively offensively, but their defense was not flattering.In terms of inside, Milicic still has a lot to learn. It takes time to digest and absorb what Big Ben and Brand taught him before. Raheem is relatively good, but he is still scratching his head when facing Wade's breakthrough , does not guarantee that he can protect the basket every time.Not to mention the outside line, the defense is almost entirely on Ariza alone. You must know that he has not grown up yet, even if he will become the top 3D player in the league in the future, it will not be of much use at this time.

Therefore, the Bobcats obviously beat the Pistons in shooting percentage, but they were still behind the opponent by more than double digits at halftime.And this is the result of Brown's release of water. He didn't pay much attention to the preseason. The main players played for a while, but the substitutes got a lot of playing time. Even so, the Bobcats were still at a disadvantage most of the time. .

During the intermission, Jackson sighed at the door of the locker room, not daring to speak too loudly, for fear of damaging the morale of the team.Chang Wei patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Damon, you have to see clearly what kind of team they are and what kind of team we are. Do you think it is possible to beat the Pistons so easily? Can you gain something in the game? One point, it’s something to be thankful for.”

Seeing that Jackson was still looking depressed, Chang Wei smiled and said, "Didn't you find that Brandon played really well? Let me tell you some news, Dwyane also praised him very much. His core is finally The first shot was fired."

Jackson couldn't help but open his mouth. Wade is now the core of the Pistons, a championship team. How bad can the people he is optimistic about be?Besides... It seems that Roy played really well in the first half!Thinking about it this way, his mood improved a lot, and his expression softened a lot when he looked at the statistics. It seems that he really picked a baby with the second pick!

In the second half, Roy became more and more courageous. Under Brown's deliberate release, the Bobcats struggled to win the game. Roy scored 35 points, 27 rebounds and 5 assists in 8 minutes. The comprehensive data led a total of six players in the team to score in double figures.Of course, the Bobcats also had a lot of problems during the game, and it will take time to correct these, but Roy doesn't need it, he just needs to fulfill his talent step by step, and now the whole team is convinced by him .

But the preseason is still training after all, if you want to prove yourself, see you in the regular season!
