Chapter 185: Undercurrent
Immediately after winning the game, the Hawks flew back to Atlanta, and three days later, they had a home game to play. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
On the second day back in Atlanta, Nguyen Er Niu received good news, he once again won the Pow (Player of the Week) in the East, from January 13 to January 19, Nguyen Er Niu led the Hawks to consecutive victories over the Bulls, Nuggets, Bucks, and Raptors. Last week's record of four wins in four games, coupled with the super average data of 33.1 points, 20.8 rebounds, and 6.1 assists, also made Ruan Erniu's POW deserved.
In the West, the Pow was also won by a UCLA-produced player, the bearded Byron Davis of the Clippers, who led the team to a 4-1 record last week, averaging 26.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 6.8 assists per game.
On the Hawks' side, there is also good news that the ankle sprained will come back in this game, in fact, the Eagles himself said that he could go to Toronto to play, but the Hawks still let him stay in Atlanta to recuperate quietly for the sake of insurance.
Now the morale of the whole team is high, and Embarrassment is indeed entitled to enjoy two more days of rare vacation.
This was something that he could not have imagined two years ago when he led the immature Marvin Williams and Josh Smith alone to play the match.
Ruan Erniu also made a special trip to visit him after returning to Atlanta, and this cool man was playing 2K games at home.
In the real heads-up, it is already difficult to find a cheap embarrassment in Ruan Erniu, and he brutally abused a popular fried chicken in the alliance in the game. On the contrary, Ruan Erniu was very depressed.
"Kraft, I didn't expect you to be so good at playing games. Embarrassed Sen scoffed.
"Hey, I'm just a newbie, and when I get familiar with the operation, I hope someone can still be so arrogant. However, I am relieved to see that you are in a good mood. Ruan Erniu replied with a smile.
Embarrassed Sen nodded and said, "Have you heard any rumors lately?"
Ruan Erniu shook his head and asked, "Rumors, haven't you heard of them, do you mean...... Billy Knight over there......"
"Do you know what the closing date is?"
Ruan Erniu hurriedly took out his mobile phone and began to check it, he looked at the rules while rummaging through the calendar: "The first Thursday after the All-Star break, that is, the Thursday of the 16th week of each season, that is, ...... February 20th, less than 1 month away. ā
It is difficult for Erniu to have words to describe the eyes of Embarrassment at that moment, which seemed to be looking forward and sighing.
"As an alliance veteran, I have to give you a piece of advice, you have to get used to saying goodbye and getting used to accepting, because that's part of the business. ā
Ruan Erniu nodded and said, "I have been mentally prepared, but I don't know if I can really accept it when it comes to the end." ā
"You will accept it, because you are destined to be the face of the team." Unless something happens, the Hawks will never trade you away. ā
Erniu still shook his head and said: "This kind of thing, who can say it clearly." At the end of the day, business is business. ā
Compared to the last trade turmoil, the whole Hawks team is calm now.
Except for leader-level players such as Ruan Erniu and Yu Yusen, no one else has learned about the relevant news.
Everybody is working hard to prepare for their home opponents, the Portland Trail Blazers.
In the preseason, the Atlanta Hawks lost to the Portland Trail Blazers. This is the first time the two teams have met in the regular season this season.
Predictably, this is bound to be a game full of gunpowder.
Both teams are both young teams, the Portlanders are still struggling for a playoff spot, and the competition in the West is too fierce.
However, after getting Ruan Erniu, Atlanta was directly promoted to the Eastern powerhouse and became a team that could break its wrists with the top team in the league.
As Ruan Erniu's performance this season has become more and more terrifying, Trail Blazers general manager Kevin Pritchard has once again become the target of ridicule from the media.
No matter how he portrays Auden the Great's comeback, the Trail Blazers sit on the youth triumvirate of Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge, and Greg Auden.
The reality is that the Celestial Empire is already the No. 1 center in the league in the eyes of most people, and Auden the Great is still riddled with injuries and doesn't know when he will be able to realize his talent.
Pritchard didn't personally oversee the game, but he did coach Nate McMillan instructions to take down the Hawks.
On January 21, at Philips Arena in Atlanta, the Hawks hosted the Trail Blazers.
Nguyen's opponent is 7'1" (216mc) Joel Pulzbilla.
This big white tall man is obviously old, and he lost to Erniu in the jump ball.
After playing for almost half a season, Ruan Erniu also found that height is not an absolute advantage in the jump ball link, and the speed of the bullet is the most important.
Anthony Johnson was rested for this game, and Assilao got the goal as the team's starter.
He dribbled quickly across the half court and then passed the ball into the hands of the embarrassed man.
In the face of Brandon Roy's defense, after a false shake, he went straight to the basket and scored a goal against Roy.
Steve Blake, dribbling across the half, also gave the ball to the team's position.
Roy didn't have to block and dismantle, and after breaking through directly, he pulled back with a quick stop, and then hit a mid-range shot.
Did the two get the wrong script?
Under normal circumstances, the pull-up jump shot should be embarrassing, and it should be Huang Mamba who breaks through the basket.
The two leagues started with a spark.
Erniu didn't mean to attack in a hurry, after receiving the pass in the low post, he used his hips to compress the opponent's defensive space, and then passed back to Embarrassment for the first time.
He also lived up to Nguyen's pass, hitting a 2-pointer from 20 feet out.
Huang Mamba still dribbled the ball unhurriedly, and then suddenly accelerated and disguised, and then accelerated to the basket, causing a foul on Marvin Williams.
The whole process is like a cloud of peers, and Huang Mamba's breakthrough rhythm is really good.
It's hard to think that this guy had a serious knee injury in college, but did his use of shifting and emergency stops so often really have no effect on his injury?
It doesn't matter if he's on another team, but he's on the Portland Trail Blazers.
Trailblazer Veterinarian ...... No, the level of the medical team's business, one of which is widely "touted" in the league, Roy's style of play, while not violent, still has a considerable impact on his knee.
Most of the first quarter of the game was a duel between Embarrassing Sen and Huang Mamba.
Ruan Erniu even had time to chat with Aldridge: "Hey, LaMarcus, there are two guys who have already turned the game into their bullfighting show, don't you have anything to say?"
Aldridge suddenly shook his head and said, "I don't talk to Taurus men, you guys are all liars." ā
Ruan Erniu is a little inexplicable, what's wrong with him being a Taurus?
During the break, Ruan Erniu talked about this topic with Tyronn Lu next to him.
Lu is worthy of being a veteran driver of the alliance, and he revealed the truth in one sentence: "Don't forget that guy in San Antonio is also a Taurus!
Ruan Erniu was suddenly depressed: "This is too stupid, look at what Aldridge has stimulated, isn't this ruining the reputation of Taurus?" (To be continued.) )
