The strongest basket king

Chapter 109 The New Season Begins

"Dude, I admire you very much, I gave you a thumbs up." Farid said to Xiang Chu when he came to the arena.

Xiang Chu was not afraid of embarrassment, he responded: "You have to put some pressure on yourself."

"That's true. In fact, my goal is also to be an All-Star, but I dare not say it directly, so you are amazing." Farid laughed.

"You young people just have ideas." Chandler joked on the side.

"It sounds like you're very old," Farid said contemptuously.

"You are only in the second year, but I am in the sixth year." Chandler said with a heck.

Chandler is also a bit sad to say that he was also ambitious when he first entered the league.

The last game of the Nuggets preseason is at home, and the opponent is also the Clippers.

Paul is back, the Clippers are completely different this time, and the Nuggets are not opponents.

It can't fully reflect the real strength, after all, the main players will not play for so long in the preseason.

If the score is close or ahead, the Nuggets can basically win the main force in the last few minutes. If the opponent is ahead of the score, it will be a little hanging.

Before the start of the regular season, the team also took two days off to make adjustments.

Last season was a shrinking season. Xiang Chu felt rushed, but this season is different.

Xiang Chu also went to find George Karl to talk about the tactics of passing the ball inside, "Coach, my finishing skills at the basket can't be wasted, especially when encountering a team that is not strong inside."

"Boy, you are too anxious." George Karl said with a serious face.

In fact, he didn't expect Xiang Chu's growth at all before, and now he is also considering the team's tactics.

"Basketball is a team game. The power of five players is stronger than the singles of superstars. You need to change some concepts. The Lakers didn't lose in the playoffs."

Xiang Chu wanted to say that the Lakers killed the Nuggets before they lost, but he was afraid that the old man would get mad.

George Karl also thought of this, and was a little embarrassed, "I said don't worry, I have coached many excellent insiders, you work hard, and I will arrange everything else."

George Karl is not lying. As the coach of Qiansheng, he has a lot of experience.

But the team's adjustments can't be so fast. He still needs to observe, first to see Xiang Chu's performance in the regular season, and to take into account the emotions of other players.

The Nuggets have always focused on the perimeter, whether it was during the Anthony period or the civilian basketball period he advocated after Anthony.

Of course he will use a good insider, but to what extent he will definitely not make a decision so quickly.

It can only be said that Xiang Chu has grown too fast, and the Nuggets are not ready yet.

At the end of October, the regular season begins, and the Nuggets will go to the Eastern Conference for the first game.

It's been a season since he entered the league, and Xiang Chu has gotten used to it. If he flies to the east, he can fly to the east.

Their opponent in the first game was the 76ers. According to international practice, Iguodah must be let out of the limelight.

The 76ers are also unlucky. Now the team has two salaried players, one is injured and the other is amnesty. They can only focus on Jrue Holiday, who is still in his rookie period.

Their best scoring player last season, Louis Williams, jumped out of the contract in the summer and became a free agent. The 76ers can only win Nick Young, who has a similar nature, through a trade.

Their operations can only be like this, there is no salary space, who knows that the bet on Bynum's immediate combat power will become an unknown chess game.

For the Nuggets, Gallinari did not play with a minor injury, and the player replaced Jordan Hamilton in the starting lineup.

Ty Lawson is quite savvy, and he kept passing the ball to Iguodala at the beginning of the game.

It's just that Iguodala's playing with the ball is really average, and he hits the iron continuously after hitting a ball.

When Ty Lawson wanted to play on his own, he realized that Jrue Holiday at the same level seemed to be getting more and more difficult.

The two are in the same class, in the same position, close in picks, and they have been used to compete. Ty Lawson feels a little uncomfortable when his offense is blocked.

Xiang Chu couldn't wait any longer. On the opposite side, Holiday scored assists and revitalized the entire team. What is the team doing with his strength.

You must know that the 76ers are now a small lineup, and it is fine to save face for Iguodala before, but now the team is behind.

Xiang Chu took the offensive rebound and jumped up to dunk.

He communicated with his teammates as he ran back, "Pass the ball in, I can handle it."

Iguodala was a little embarrassed, he didn't start well.

He simply put his energy on defense and support, and then passed a good ball to Xiang Chu.

Xiang Chu's opponent is Lavoy Allen in the same class, a stocky insider.

After Xiang Chu has the iron-blooded titan skills, the general short and strong insiders will definitely be crushed. As long as he reaches the offensive area, Lavoy Allen can't interfere with him at all.

After being beaten by Xiang Chu several times in a row, the 76ers could only adjust and replaced with the tall Spencer Hawes.

Hawes has height, but this buddy was born as a guard and doesn't like confrontation. On the defensive end, he still can't cause the biggest trouble for Xiang Chu.

His role is on the offensive end, he can pull out and shoot.

In this regard, Xiang Chu is really difficult to defend, because he is not in the Lakers now, and there is no big inside to help him defend, and he was also shot by the opponent for a three-pointer.

But this is not a big problem. The situation of the Nuggets is relatively late.

Whether it's the substitute or the main force, except for Xiang Chu, they are all suppressed by the opponent.

It should be the reason for the away game. Everyone's state in the preseason is actually not bad.

Of course, one of the reasons is that Gallinari didn't play. He is a stable point for the Nuggets when he is shooting.

Xiang Chu scored a double-double of 16+10 in the half, but the team was still behind.

During the halftime break, George Karl looked a little bad. The Nuggets have ideas today. How can they be beaten by the 76ers.

Moreover, Xiang Chu's explosion is not in the plan. The team's tactics are still mainly team-based, and Xiang Chu will completely play as a star after half a quarter.

"We must be aggressive on the offensive end. Are you soft on the road?"

George Karl said that he would take out the tactical board and arrange a few inside tactics. The 76ers must use it now that they have no inside.

The 76ers did better than them in the playoffs. Didn’t that happen before the trade? Now the 76ers’ lineup has changed drastically. There is no Brad, no Iguodala, no Lou Williams, it’s not fishy, ​​it’s What.

"Brothers, leave the second half to me. Their inside defense is like paper." Xiang Chu patted his chest and smiled.

Ty Lawson's face changed slightly, and now he felt that Xiang Chu was robbing him of his speaking time.

Forget it, as the boss of the team, we must tolerate new players and help them integrate.

After a season of growth, Ty Lawson has regarded himself as the leader of the team, and he hasn't thought about anything else yet.
