NBA: I'm really not a point guard god

The first quarter is over.

Celtics head coach Doc Rivers looked very ugly.

35: 31.

The Celtics are clearly in the lead.

But Rivers was not happy at all.

……

In the first quarter of the game, strictly speaking, the Bobcats still had a lot of problems.

As an inside pillar that the team focuses on cultivating.

Oden's performance can only be described as unsatisfactory.

4 points, 3 rebounds.

As a rookie's first regular season game, it was pretty good.

However, he already had three fouls in the first quarter.

If Zhou Yao is smart enough.

Oden probably won't be allowed to play again in the second quarter.

Let him go back to the bench and calm down.

At the same time, it should be regarded as a kind of protection for him.

However, if Zhou Yao returns to the field by himself.

Who will comfort Oden who remains off the court?

Another rookie, Durant, is somewhat unable to let go.

6-of-2 from the field.

Only got 4 points.

And also looks stupid.

This isn't college basketball.

Not high school basketball.

So tall.

I don't want to go inside to fight.

They will only hide outside and shoot cold arrows.

Just hide outside.

The hit rate is pretty good.

But it's still unclear how much he can do.

And that Rajon Rondo.

Last season he was also considered a good organizer of offense.

Just played the first game this season.

However, his passing seems to have regressed from last season.

The point is, it also completely exposed his inability to shoot.

It seems that the outside world's evaluation of him is still too high.

Last season, people said he was Zhou Yao who couldn't shoot three-pointers.

Watch now.

His passing was average.

So-so ball control.

The defense also matched up.

But it’s true that he can’t shoot.

In comparison, Drew Gooden, who was traded from the Cavaliers, really performed well.

3 rebounds in the first quarter and 8 points scored.

It can be said that without Gooden, the Bobcats might have been defeated in the first quarter.

By the way, there is JR.

Now it seems that he is the most suitable second boss next to Zhou Yao.

However, he is just the second in charge.

Just like Pippen who was next to Jordan back then.

He has the ability, but he can't support a team.

However, with the Bobcats playing like this, the Celtics only led by 4 points.

To a bobcat, this is no different than scratching an itch.

As long as Zhou Yao is still sitting on the sidelines, it means that the Bobcats still have strength left.

Moreover, it is only a mere 4 points.

Zhou Yao came on the field and took two random shots and recovered them.

……

Rivers said he felt bitter.

He took over the Magic in 99.

Rivers has been the head coach for eight years.

This is his 9th season.

His team had never made it past the second round of the playoffs before.

Last season, the Celtics' winning percentage was less than 30%.

Fortunately, Danny Ainge was planning a big deal this summer.

For the team management, they don't particularly care about the record.

This season is different.

The team is an unprecedented Big 5 lineup.

For the Celtics, if they can't win the championship, it's a failure.

When that time comes, Rivers will definitely be the first to be thrown out and take the blame.

Rivers doesn't want to be the one taking the blame.

Moreover, he often goes to the Sportsman's House.

He has heard it.

The fans gave him the nickname "The Reversed Essence of Humanity".

It is said that this nickname was first used in China.

Gradually it expanded to the whole world.

To this day, fans only have to mention him.

"It's him!"

"He's the man who will always be reversed no matter how much he wins!"

"I don't know how he did it!"

"I wish she was on our opposing side."

"This way the team I support will be stable!"

Rivers has heard this so many times.

Just yesterday, Danny Ainge was joking about this.

Rivers wanted to beat him up.

But he also knew.

It's not completely unreasonable for fans to say this.

When he led the Magic, their 3:1 start was reversed by the Wizards.

But people at that time were relatively tolerant of him.

Fans will only say that the Magic lost to the final championship.

Also understandable.

Some people may even think that the magic of that year was very sad.

After all, they were the only team to beat that Wizards team in the playoffs.

But later.

Being reversed again and again.

Fans are becoming less and less tolerant of him.

Even, on Sportsman's House.

Some fans believe that Rivers is the Celtics' biggest weakness.

Even if the team reaches the finals, the team will still transport the ball because of his bad luck.

On the contrary, I really made it to the finals.

In all likelihood, they will face the Lakers.

The Lakers have Tyronn Lue this year, who has won eight consecutive championships.

The Celtics have a bad star, and the Lakers have a lucky star.

This game is simply unplayable.

……

The second quarter started quickly.

Just like many people guessed.

Zhou Yao left Oden on the bench.

And people also saw that Zhou Yao had taken off his suit.

And did a simple warm-up.

Now, Zhou Yao has indeed appeared.

Not just replacing Oden.

All five starting players were rested.

The center was replaced by Wang Zhizhi.

The power forward was replaced by Luis Scola.

The small forward is Steve Novak.

The shooting guard is JJ Redick.

"Is this the real strength of the Bobcats this year?"

Like many people, Rivers is quite skeptical about this.

In the first quarter, the Bobcats' players included JR, the team's second in command.

However, that may also be to allow him to lead others and use it as the Bobcats' second lineup.

Of the five Bobcats currently on the court, only Redick was proven to play poorly last season.

It depends on whether Bobcat really has the ability to turn stone into gold.

The few remaining people.

Wang Zhizhi and Scola were both players when the Wizards won the championship.

Novak's defense is not good, but his offensive power is still quite high.

Rivers was secretly grateful.

In the first quarter, several main players had some rest time.

Although it's not much, they should still have plenty of physical strength.

The point is, the five people on the court now are also the Celtics' main players.

Although I didn’t expect Zhou Yao to play so soon.

But that's okay, let's let the two teams fight with real swords and guns.

It depends on who is the real master of the king.

……

At a position that Coach Rivers isn’t paying attention to.

Durant clenched his fists hard.

He was not satisfied with the first quarter of the game.

He is still a rookie and this is his first official NBA game.

As for other people, he is not yet qualified to evaluate them at will.

What really dissatisfied him was his own performance.

"Be ready to get back on the field at any time."

"You are the player I specified."

"You need to prove my vision to everyone now."

Before playing, Zhou Yao whispered in Durant's ear...
