Excellent view!
Good big picture!
Calmness that is not greedy for success!

This is the compliment of the three people in the TNT studio to Dragic, a rookie who has just entered the NBA professional league.

Although it is obvious that Dragic, a second-year rookie, is very uncomfortable with the intensity and rhythm of the NBA game, and the Bobcats' chaotic tactical system and messy player running positions make him want to organize the team's offense A wish, turned into an out-and-out dream.

But they can still see some of Dragic's excellent qualities as an excellent point guard. At first they were full of doubts about this genius who is also from Europe, but now they have long seen the previous kind in their eyes. With skeptical eyes in the scrutiny, although whether Dragic can adapt to the confrontation in the NBA is still a matter worth pondering, but at least this genius has been able to shut up all those who doubt him in terms of offense.

Just waiting for garbage, the talent shown in offense now will make many teams ignore the various shortcomings that he will appear in defense. Of course, now I want to judge by Dragic's performance in this month or so His future is really a bit arbitrary.

So it may be observed in one season to see whether Dragic can adapt to the confrontation intensity of the NBA, and whether he can continue to grow, may be the most important thing for a team that lacks a defender with the ball.

Dragic's performance is certainly good, and in the next round, he played quite steadily, but Rose, who was facing him, seemed unstoppable. His surging breakthrough surprised everyone. Dragic is like paper to Rose, without any defense.

But most of the defensive players in the league may be like paper to Rose, because they can't make the next step of the screw at all, or they can predict Rose's next move, but they find that their body Can't keep up with Ross's speed at all.

No one knows how Rose, who played 40 minutes, scored 30 points, 8 assists and 5 rebounds, is feeling at the end of the game, because this data is certainly a new career high for him, but the Bulls he led lost.

And Dragic, who was facing him, was like a hero and was cheered by all Bobcats fans. This rookie played 28 minutes in this game and scored [-] points and [-] assists. It seems as if Dragic should be the MVP of this game.

Rose won the personal data, but Dragic won the game!

From the cheers of the Bobcats fans at the scene, we can know how much they love Dragic. This white man who fights tenaciously on the court and is not afraid of Rose, who is much stronger than him, has completely won the respect of the Bobcats fans!

Everyone can feel his desire to win the game from Dragic's desperate scrimmage on the field. This is the most important reason why they really respect and love Dragic.

"Derek's performance tonight is amazing, but I think all of us must give this second-round pick enough respect!"

"Dragic used his own actions to interpret what is called a game. His attitude towards the game is what really shines in this game, so that everyone can feel the warm characteristics."

Scott Pippen's comments on Dragic became the theme slogan of the major portal websites the next day. Originally, Shanmai has always been one of the focus teams of all media attention, especially when the Bobcats, or When a team is very good at developing new players, when they drafted Dragic in this year's draft, everyone was still wondering why they would look at this mediocre, very thin player What about the white point guard?

What is there in him that can be valued by the Bobcats?
After all, for the Bobcats, they have no shortage of point guards at all. The only possibility for them to choose this player is that this player does have great potential. Later, they are confident that they can train a player like Dragic.

And now, after more than a month, Dragic, who has been silent and playing very ordinary statistics, showed an amazing performance against his fellow champion Rose in this game. No one in this game would think that the point guard who scored his career-high ten assists would be an ordinary point guard.

His spirituality when playing is too much like his predecessor Steve Nash.

Although not many people are optimistic about Dragic's ability to grow into a two-time regular season MVP player like Nash, there is no doubt that Dragic does have this potential.

"Thank you! Thank you coach, thank you for your trust in me..."

As the game ended, Dragic's face was filled with excitement and happiness. He really never thought that he could get so much playing time in such an important game, especially when the fourth quarter, he He couldn't believe it when he learned that he had been on the court for almost the entire game.

If it wasn't Stotts who told him, but someone else told him, he must have thought it would be a complete joke, but he watched Stotts put on a sincere look, and he couldn't help but accept that it was a good idea Reality.

Especially when he saw Gao Tian sitting on the bench nodding at him and gesticulating with a smile, he finally reluctantly accepted this reality.

So when Dragic left the field, he really thanked his teammates and his generous coach. In his impression, NBA coaches are all rigid and mean people, and they would not choose to trust a man easily. A rookie, especially a second-round pick like him, is ready to sit on the bench for a season with the Bobcats.

But he didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly. He really didn't expect to get such an opportunity in the game against the Bulls, and the most important thing was to free up the ball for him in the fourth quarter. Did not play, only Sun Yue was on the court to help him face Rose on the defensive end.

Originally, Dragic didn't have any sense of belonging to the Bobcats. After all, the Bobcats were really not a good place for him, but is there any way to do it now? This is what his predecessors have always experienced.

However, today's game really made his heart start to use a new attitude to treat this place where he will live here for at least a year, and his teammates who will fight side by side with him. His face seems cold, In fact, the warm-hearted captain who made him feel warm, and the coach who would smile and encourage him.

At the moment just now, he really thought that he had returned to Europe, back to his own team, that kind of warmth made him familiar yet strange.
