Chapter 135: The Only Persistence
Before I knew it, it had come to December, and the NBA regular season had begun for more than a month, and Wei Zhiming had experienced a lot and gained a lot.
And on December 1, Wei Zhiming officially became the Clippers' starting small forward, which is Reaves' expectation of him and a reflection of his strength.
It's a pity that the tsundere system has nothing to say about Wei Zhiming becoming the starter, and the system seems to be able to improve Wei Zhiming's strength only by releasing tasks by itself.
For the Clippers, the starting lineup is point guard Paul, scoring guard JJ Redick, small forward Wei Zhiming, power forward Griffin, and center Jordan Jr.
The Trail Blazers started point guard Damian Lillard, shooting guard CJ McCollum, small forward Al Farouk Amino, power forward Noah Vonleh, and center Mason Plumlee.
Last year, the Trail Blazers left four of the Tigers, leaving only one Lillard, and this year everyone is not optimistic about the Trail Blazers, believing that they may not make the playoffs, and are estimated to be 9-10.
This one, the fans feel like they have won, although the last game against the Trail Blazers, the Clippers lost the game, but that one was back-to-back, and the Clippers players were physically exhausted.
And in today's game, the Clippers are not only sitting at home, Wei Zhiming is the first to play, and the strength is different before.
When Wei Zhiming came out in the fourth position, he actually heard the cheers of the Clippers fans, and it seemed that his performance was accepted by the Clippers fans.
After receiving the cheers, Wei Zhiming felt his blood boiling, and he stood outside the three-point line and began to practice three-point practice.
Wei Zhiming's training during this period of time is almost dominated by mid- and long-range shooting, and he was mentioned by Reaves as a starting small forward, and he can keep up with the defense at the moment, and if he has a three-point hand, it will make it more difficult for others to defend.
Wei Zhiming's shooting touch is still very good, and his empty three-point shooting rate is not low, but it is not high.
Wei Zhiming's player in this game is Al Farouk Aminu of the Trail Blazers.
Al Farouk Aminu is a standard wing 3-and-D player who is excellent defensively and has a three-handed hand.
Therefore, Wei Zhiming's defensive pressure today is not very great, and El Farouk Aminu is average compared to other 3D players.
When Wei Zhiming stood in position and Jordan Jr. and Mason Plumlee jumped the ball, the synthesized sound sounded again.
"Optional Mission 1 - The Only Perseverance!"
"Mission description: Poor Trail Blazers, a team that has lost four starters in a year, this is the only team in the league that is so pitiful. Damian Lillard, now the Trail Blazers' only starter from last season, deserves respect. ”
"Mission Requirements: This is the year Damian Lillard proves himself, but the economy has no mercy and will mercilessly slaughter the Trail Blazers."
"Reward: A gorgeous slaughter with a score starting at 10 points. If you win more than 10 points, you will shoot +3 from a distance, and for every 5 points you will win, you will have a +1 from a distance. ”
"Mission Punishment: It's sad if you can't even defeat a Trailblazer. Long Throw -5."
"Deadline: Today."
When Wei Zhiming saw this task, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he shot from a distance, and he is currently practicing. To be a wing 3-and-D player, the three-point shot has to be dangerous.
"Optional Mission 2 - Portland Vet Team!"
"Mission description: The Trail Blazers' coaching staff is inexplicable, and so is their vet team. The young players of the Trail Blazers can't seem to escape the erosion of injuries. ”
"Mission description: The Trail Blazers have players to envy, but also veterinarians to fear, a former genius, Manmba Brandon Roy. A player who is not inferior to Kobe Bryant, under the erosion of injuries, retired gloomily. The former Auden the Great, Greg Oden, is known as a once-in-a-century insider, but unfortunately because of injury, he has not yet shown his talent, so he left silently. ”
"Mission requirements: to incarnate the Auden the Great of the year, ruthlessly ravage the inner line, and complete five station buckles! When O'Neill and Olajuwon are one, God, Lao Tzu didn't dare to think how terrifying it was. ”
"Rewards: Strength +2, Standing Buckle +2, Bounce +2!"
"Task Punishment: If you don't complete it, you will be retaliated by the veterinarian, and the injury resistance value is -10 points."
"Mission Deadline: Today and Today!"
"Note: You can only choose one of optional missions 1 and optional 2!"
"Auden the Great!" Wei Zhiming smashed his mouth, Oden was a terrifying existence back then, and now a superstar, Kevin Durant was the second in the draft that year, and the first place was no suspense for Oden.
And the nickname that the Americans gave to Auden was the Great, and James was a little emperor.
One can imagine what a terrifying existence Oden is if he is not injured.
"It's a pity that the rules of the league are now skewed to the outside, otherwise I can consider becoming the existence of O'Neill and Olajuwon." Wei Zhiming touched his chin, if O'Neal's free throws were as accurate as Yao Ming, I really couldn't imagine that picture.
Wei Zhiming chose optional task 1 this time, and he thought that his internal strength was not so strong.
Jordan Jr. and Mason Plumlee, Jordan Jr. wins, Griffin gets the ball.
The Clippers attacked for the first time, still looking for Redick first, and Paul did not change his tactics because Wei Zhiming became the starter.
Redick took CJ McCollum crazy running, Wei Zhiming made a block for Redick, Redick appeared vacant, the ball in Paul's hand immediately came to Redick's hand, Redick raised and fell, and duang hit the iron.
The Clippers' lineup this time is a three-high lineup, so when Redick hit the iron, he didn't return to the defense as quickly as usual, but three tall players rushed into the interior together to compete for rebounds.
In the past, the Clippers could only say that rebounding was very average, Griffin attacked more than defended, and many times only Jordan Jr. grabbed the rebounding ball alone.
But since Wei Zhiming arrived, his level of interior and his ability to grab rebounds have given the Clippers a great guarantee for rebounding.
Wei Zhiming's last game against Downs, he grabbed 12 rebounds in a single game, which said it all.
The inside twin towers composed of Wei Zhiming and Jordan Jr. made Clippers fans very excited, in the past, because of Griffin's small short hands, the Clippers inside twin towers could only be one tall and one short. And now, the twin towers composed of Wei Zhiming and Little Jordan are both tall towers.
So, when Jordan Jr. jammed Mason Plumlee and Griffin and Noah Vonleh entangled, Wei Zhiming pressed Al Farouk Aminu and took the rebound off his head.
Subsequently, Wei Zhiming threw the ball directly to Redick, who shot three points again, and this time, the three-point shot steadily, and the Clippers started the game 3-0.
