Chapter 77 Change of Times

But what about Totoro's dribbling ability?The outside world does not have a specific concept of this, but the Rockets have an intuitive understanding of Totoro's dribbling ability.

Arranging flowers with both hands, changing directions in advance, dribbling behind the back, touching fish under the crotch, butterflies piercing flowers, etc. Chinchillas are very skilled. The action is very 6, but the difficulty of these dribbling skills is that few players can combine them at the same time, and use them as continuous skills in actual combat. It has nothing to do with hard training, but has something to do with a player's sense of the ball.

The ball feel is a talent, similar to the height and wingspan. It is an ability that can hardly be trained the day after tomorrow. Naturally, it cannot be adjusted in 2K games, but what is interesting is that Totoro’s own ball sense is historical. , This is one of the few basketball talents he has.

So the lama is tragic.

Totoro, who broke through to the left, suddenly took a step back, dribbled the ball under his crotch, pulled the basketball back, and then bowed to Buddha to break to the right. Odom was also very powerful. He forcibly stabilized his center of gravity to stop the castration, and then destroyed his knee Moved laterally to the right, but when Totoro pulled the ball back again with the same retreat step, the weak ankle of Lama, who was dizzy, finally couldn't support his body, and his feet went soft." Plop" and fell to the floor.

Totoro took the ball and adjusted its posture, then shot a very beautiful mid-range shot. With the crisp sound of "swish" when it touched the net, the brown-red ball obediently got into the net bag.

"Dragon! Dragon! Dragon!"

The Rockets immediately pulled up a red banner at home. Now the Rockets fans have completely accepted Totoro. Even the fans who used to be soft wheat have slowly turned black into fans. Totoro has proved it with its continuous excellent performance on the court. Everything, he is exactly the same as McGrady who just entered the league, even stronger!
Domineering slam dunks and blocks, lightning steals, unpredictable passes, precise shots, and now gorgeous dribbling that dazzles the eye, what else does this rookie not know on this court? ?
Although he now has more turnovers, sometimes reckless fouls, is not stable enough when being double-teamed, and will also perform abnormally when encountering experienced defenders who are at their peak, but his potential makes him It is clear at a glance that his future is so bright, maybe only 6 games have passed since now, but now no one says that Totoro is arrogant.

The day before yesterday, he beat the No. [-] pick Rose to win the Rookie of the Week. Doesn't this mean something?Some people who are still not convinced will say that success or failure cannot be judged by a week's performance, but at least Totoro will definitely not be worse than Ross, which is understandable.

"I said, Kenny, I have followed the Totoro 6 games, although this is the second time our TV broadcasts the Rockets, but he really brought me a very deep performance, who do you think he is like? Or Who is his template?"

Big butt Sir Barkley sat in the live broadcast room again in a suit and leather shoes. As a superstar who can enter the top 25 in history, coupled with his unscrupulous big mouth and explosive remarks from time to time, big butt is always tn丨tbasketball Guarantee of live ratings.

It is not easy to get the praise of Barkley. This man dares to go up and spray a few words. Chinese fans know him because he mocked Yao Ming and kissed the ass of the donkey. Hinting that he is not worthy of being No.1 in the league, and also saying that the mighty Warriors are just a group of softballs who shoot outside jumpers, and they are not worthy of winning the championship. It's really harder to get him to boast a few words.

"Your question can stump me. Many Rockets fans think he is like McGrady, but he has not shown McGrady's creativity, but he is more dominant on the defensive end than McGrady. Many fans think he is like McGrady. James, but I don't think his body is as good as the little emperor, but his mid-range and long-range shots are even better. Some people think he is Kobe's successor, but he doesn't have Kobe's explosive and critical moment scoring ability, but He is more of a team than Peter Pan, and to be honest I don’t think who his template is, he is a unique player.”

Kenny Smith said after thinking for a while.

"I agree with your words very much. Generally, players who can become superstars are unique. Although these few games can't prove anything, it can be seen from this goal that he has a bright future. He has all the qualities to become a leader. Conditions, here I have to envy Alexander's luck. In 2002, he found Yao Ming, who brought him wealth. This year, he used the No. 6 pick to select a player who can bring the market and improve the team's record. What a lucky old fellow."

The big ass sighed. In fact, Barkley is not some arrogant and surly guy. The reason why he will criticize so many players in the future is because the basketball concept of his era is completely different from the current basketball concept. In the interior and front line, and rely more on superstar personal performance to determine the success or failure of the game, but with the reform of the rules, the current basketball style is gradually shifting towards the direction of the small ball, and the team creates more attacks by passing and receiving the ball. Opportunities, the status of three-pointers has become more important than two-pointers, and the role of individual superstars has been weakened, so that they have become superstars created under a certain system.

And there was no such thing as a group of superstars in the past. Some people may talk about Jordan, Pippen and Rodman of the Bulls, but apart from the old hooligans, the horse-faced man was selected for the school team in his senior year before entering the NBA. The pheasant college students who couldn't even play in the NCAA in college averaged less than 8 points per game in the first season of the NBA. Before the Bulls came to the Bulls in 95, they were just a grumpy 35-year-old man, but Jordan created them and made them into Dynasty teams and dynasty players.

And the most important thing at that time is that no matter how many times those superstars lose, they will not go to play with superstars of the same age who are still at the peak. This is true for Magician, Bird or Smiling Assassin. When they are old, they will form a certain f4 or f5, but when they are young and strong, they will never find their opponents as teammates.
