NBA: I really just want to make money
Chapter 63
In this game, the Mavericks were obviously well prepared. The team’s pre-game arrangements were very specific. Terry was not prepared to fight Chen Hao at all. When he saw Chen Hao stepping forward to prepare for defense, I ran away immediately.....
He seemed extremely decisive and immediately lost the idea of controlling the ball. Adrian Griffin controlled the ball for half the game.
Immediately passed the ball to Nowitzki, and Odom pressed forward directly.
Looking at Odom with a malicious look in front of him, his mind couldn't help but think of the opponent's shameful defensive method in the last game. Nowitzki couldn't help but tighten his legs....
He did not choose to shoot directly, but unexpectedly rushed to the inside and hit two points off the board. His style was very tough and caught Odom off guard.
In the next few rounds, Nowitzki still played in this style. After several sudden advances, he suddenly became independent. Moreover, he did not attack continuously. He always took over when his teammates could not find scoring opportunities. He has the ball, helps the team score, and his state is ridiculously stable.
It can be called the ultimate pot catcher!
However, in a basketball game, no matter how powerful a king is, it is difficult to lead a group of bronze players to defeat powerful opponents.
The God of Basketball still needs Pippen!
Although Nowitzki was in excellent form, he hit six goals in nine shots in a single quarter and made two free throws, scoring 14 in a single quarter.
But they couldn't stand up to the rest of the Mavericks players, who were in average shape. Terry made zero of two shots, Josh Howard made one of eight, Dampier made zero of one in a single quarter, and Adrian made one of three.......Except for Nowitzki, everyone else on the team seems to be lost in the luxuriant city of Los Angeles.
The Mavericks only scored 18 points in the first quarter!
On the other hand, for the Lakers, Kobe was in extremely good competitive form. He made 7 of 8 in a single quarter and scored 15 points. He actually gave up his promising career as a blacksmith.
Chen Hao hit two three-pointers and scored 6 points, Odom 4 points, Mihm 4 points, Cook 2 points, and the Lakers scored 31 points in a single quarter.
In just the first quarter of the game, the Lakers opened up a 13-point lead, and the point difference was not small.
This is undoubtedly a psychological blow to the Mavericks who wanted revenge, and the impact on their morale is obvious.
In the second quarter, Chen Hao took the initiative to fight as usual and went on to guard Devin Harris.
The latter took advantage of his speed and explosive power to break into the interior again and again, causing damage.
Keith Van Horn also performed well. Although he didn't score any three-pointers, his mid-range shooting percentage was good.
The Lakers did not let Odom play for the first time. For the first time in the new season, Chen Hao led the team alone, with four substitutes: Kwame Brown, Bynum, Vujacic and Walton.
With the help of Kwame Brown's high-quality pick-and-roll, Chen Hao did not encounter much trouble on the offensive end. He was able to calmly control the ball and break through, or shoot by himself, or assist his teammates.
Vujacic's shooting percentage was good, 2 of 4 three-pointers. Walton took advantage of his organizational forward advantages, constantly cutting in to catch the ball, attracting the defense, and then passing the ball out in time, acting as Chen Hao and his teammates. between people.
Commonly known as tool man.
With Bynum and Kwame Brown on the court at the same time, the Lakers' interior height is at least two levels ahead of the Mavericks. After all, their backup center is not even 2.10 meters tall, and his wingspan is average.
In an area like the penalty area, which is one inch high and one inch strong, the competitiveness is really average.
With the twin towers on the inside, Odom was resting off the court again. As the commanding tower and ball handler on the court, Chen Hao began to increase his shots while organizing. As long as there was an opportunity outside the three-point line, he would directly shoot without hesitation. Take action.
With a lot of secondary attacks, Chen Hao took 6 shots in half a quarter and hit two of them. The efficiency was not too high, but it was enough to help the team steadily improve its advantage on the court.
When the main players of both sides came on the court, the Lakers' lead had reached 16 points.
The key is that Chen Hao's physical fitness is very good and he can continue to be on the court. With Kobe and Odom on the court, the energy required on the offensive end is greatly reduced, and he can focus more on the defensive end.
It immediately made Jason Terry miserable.
Phil Jackson, who was watching all this, was very satisfied with Chen Hao's performance, especially after seeing Odom return to the game after a few minutes of rest in the second quarter and in equally good condition. He was even more determined to let Chen Hao play in the future. The idea of leading the team alone in the first half of the second quarter.
This is a super rookie who has a big heart and plays very smart.
Not only does he know how to play to his own strengths, but he can also bring out the talents of his teammates. This is enough when facing the opponent's substitute lineup.
As long as the score is not overtaken, it is actually a victory.
Because they have Kobe.
This new season is a scoring machine that can average 40+ points per game!
Thinking of the new contract that the team and Chen Hao's agent were about to negotiate, Phil Jackson suddenly became more and more happy.
Chen Hao can be kept in the Lakers to continue to partner with Kobe, and Odom has all-round abilities, as well as many role players in the team. If we can get another super player with the ability to connect the team at a high level, Odom can be liberated. , making him the best sixth man, then the Lakers will definitely be a contender for the championship.
But such inside players are not easy to come by, and there are not many players in the league with matching abilities.
Tim Duncan of the Spurs, Kevin Garnett of the Timberwolves, Dayao of the Rockets, Pau Gasol of the Grizzlies......Fei Jackson kept thinking about the information and feasibility of players in each team who met his requirements.
After all, the Lakers really don’t have many chips to offer.
"If it doesn't work, then we can only trade him~" Phil Jackson looked at a certain figure on the field.
The game continued....
The team is in a leading position and has a huge score advantage. Naturally, it does not need to maintain such a fast pace of the game. Understanding this, Chen Hao consciously slows down the offensive and defensive rhythm to improve the team's overall scoring success rate, allowing the team to maintain a consistent pace on the field. Stabilize the Mavericks.
After halftime, even though Nowitzki performed steadily and scored 27 points in the half, he still could not lead the team to overtake the score, and the point difference remained at 15 points.
"Why didn't I realize before that Hao's ability to control the field is actually very good? It's really reassuring to have him control the ball.~"
"Yes, Hao controls the ball, Bryant becomes the terminator, and Lamar serves as the coordinator and attacker. The division of labor is clear and the efficiency is very high, but it always feels like something is missing.~"
"By the way, have you noticed that several times Kobe asked for the ball and wanted to play one-on-one, but Hao didn't pass the ball. The key is that Kobe is not angry. Can you believe this?"
"The two people have a very good relationship in private, and Hao actually doesn't restrict Kobe's shots too much. He just chooses to pass the ball when his condition, feel and timing are better. This makes Kobe's efficiency more efficient. The value is obviously improving~"
"There are really too few point guards who can perfectly integrate with Kobe. Hao has proven that he can coexist with Kobe for mutual benefit on the court. Unfortunately, Hao only signed a one-year contract with the team. It feels very unsafe. Other teams will definitely be early. Just keep an eye on him~"
"That's for sure. Hao's price/performance ratio is too high. I hope he can renew his contract with the team as soon as possible.~"
"yes......"
While there was a lot of discussion, the halftime interval ran out and both sides took the field again, undoubtedly with their main lineups.
The Lakers had the ball. As soon as Chen Hao received the pass, a series of cheers and applause suddenly erupted in the arena, which made him very confused:
"Did you all take the wrong medicine? I haven’t done anything yet~"
Immediately afterwards, the two rows of spectators closest to the stadium began to shout:
"Hao, stay, we need you!"
"Hao, stay!"
"Hao, stay!"
"Hao, stay here and I will give you a baby!"
"Hao, as long as you stay, I will spend the night with you!"
"....."
Hearing these shouts, especially the last few sentences, Chen Hao expressed his heartbeat...Nonsence....Everyone was confused:
"Can you be more serious? I am an honest person. I have to be responsible for such ambiguous words." He secretly followed the sound and looked at the aunt's face, which made him feel energetic.
Fortunately, he was not too distracted during the period, and he was light-hearted. Dribbling the ball under his hip, he dodged Old Coin Terry's stealing action, rushed straight to the frontcourt, saw the right moment, and passed the ball to Kobe who was stationed in his position.
"Bang~"
After receiving the pass, Kobe looked solemn. He knew that whether the ball could be scored was directly related to whether Chen Hao would pass the ball to him again in the first few minutes of the third quarter.
With Adrian Gerry behind him Fen directly showed the consciousness and attitude of the finals. He swayed his opponent in a flash and calmly hit the mid-range shot, adding two more points to the Lakers.
Chen Hao waved at the fans. He waved his hand to indicate that he should stop shouting.
This is the fact. The fans were originally focused on the game, but the fans made such a fuss that they felt at odds with the team and wanted to leave the team.
And those words were really too easy to make people laugh. I was distracted.
Anyway, the faces of those black aunts still appeared in my mind from time to time, and I felt that my mood was very beautiful from time to time.
Terry, who was afraid of the world being in chaos, even directly asked in a low voice which team his next team would be.
What a god, I want one person for one city!
Well, two cities are actually acceptable, but three cities......
Back to the game~
Although it was not stated clearly, seeing Chen Hao's actions and demeanor, the fans knew that his behavior just now was somewhat inappropriate, so they stopped talking and started cheering for the team.
This made Chen Hao sigh in relief.
At the same time, I feel warm inside, which shows that I already have weight among the Lakers fans, and I am even willing to sell my body to keep him. This is really....Damn it, the picture of the aunt’s face is out again!
The game continued, and the Mavericks still focused on the outside. Since the Sharks traveled east, Dampier, who has become the most vocal center in the West, really can't handle the big task on the offensive end, but his ability to rebound and block positions is still above the standard. Got some support from the team.
But being unable to take shots closer to the basket, coupled with the fact that his condition was only average, the Mavericks' performance in the third quarter still did not improve much. Nowitzki is very stable, really stable, but his scoring explosiveness is There are some shortcomings~
It is really impossible to bring four teammates who are at the bronze level today.
On the contrary, after entering the final quarter, Devin Harris, who came on as a substitute, gave Nowitzki some support in this game.
Unfortunately, facing the Lakers, who were in full form, had a steady rhythm, and extremely high efficiency, everything was in vain. The score difference of more than ten points lasted until the end of the game.
The Mavericks' state in this game is very abnormal. They don't look like the third-best team in the Western Conference at all.
On the other hand, the Lakers, after completing 24 regular seasons, all the players on the team have been integrated into the tactical system. Personally Although the state has had some ups and downs, it is all within a controllable range. With the two powerful perimeter defense tools of Kobe Bryant and Chen Hao, the team's record can be said to be outstanding.
After winning 11 consecutive games against the Mavericks, their record of 22 wins and 3 losses continues to lead the league!
In terms of individual player honors, Kobe's scoring average remains at a level of 40+, which is shocking.
Chen Hao's personal scoring average increased to 1.3 points per game due to a significant increase in the number of shots he took. He also averaged 9.8 assists, 9 rebounds, and 3.7 steals per game.
Brevin Knight, who ranks first in the steals list, ranks second with only 2.3 steals per game.
He ranks second in the league in assists, just behind Steve Nash of the Suns.
Such an outstanding performance enabled Chen Hao to surpass Chris Paul for the first time on the list of the best rookies, getting rid of the second best status and ranking first!
If this ranking lasts until the end of the season, then he will be the best rookie!
By achieving such an honor as a non-draft player, Chen Hao undoubtedly attracted a lot of attention.
Unfortunately, the dense regular season did not give Chen Hao a chance to reflect on this go-ahead moment. The day after the game against the Mavericks, the Lakers flew to Orlando to challenge the Magic away from home.
This team has outstanding players such as Grant Hill, Steve Francis, Hedo Turkoglu, and last year's No. 1 pick Dwight Howard. Although the team's record looks average, it is an unstoppable team. underestimated opponent......_Feilu reminds you: three things about reading-Collection
