Chapter 427: Hidden Mission Accomplished!
November 22, 2007 is Thanksgiving Day in the United States.
There are no games in the NBA this year's Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving is a unique family reunion day for the American people, and it feels a bit like the Chinese New Year.
Because of Thanksgiving, the Seattle SuperSonics have a day off.
Thanksgiving is a holiday for the American people, and Yees has little interest in it.
However, during his years in the United States, he also celebrated Thanksgiving every year.
No way, that's what his high school head coach, Coach Floyd, requested.
When Yees first came to the United States, he was considered a lonely man, and Coach Floyd was afraid that he would be lonely, so he invited him to his home for Thanksgiving.
Originally, Ye Si didn't want to go, but Coach Floyd had a heart for his fists, and he couldn't refuse.
Finally, Yass spends every Thanksgiving in the United States at Coach Floyd's house.
This year's Thanksgiving is no exception.
And just like last year, on this year's Thanksgiving, Yaes also met Roy and Conroy in Seattle.
However, the two did not stay in Seattle for long, and left directly after meeting Ye Si after dinner.
Tomorrow the Rockets will take on the Heat away, and the Lakers will take on the Celtics away.
"Ye, every Thanksgiving Day in the future, Brandon and Will will envy you."
Getting fatter and fatter, the fat spherical No. 1 who couldn't recognize it didn't know if he said to him with a smile.
"It's really a blessing to be able to stay in Seattle to play, but for Ye, this is really what Ye deserves, and I'm afraid only Ye can make Seattle SuperSonics give it all."
The spherical No. 2 creature next to Ye Si seemed to nod and said.
Since graduating, the two have looked more and more like basketball.
"Ye, are you thinking about something rude?"
"Nope."
In the training hall at Garfield High School.
Ye Si, who was sitting on the floor, looked at the big man who was shooting not far away and said calmly.
Every year on Thanksgiving, the Garfield Five Tigers return to Garfield High School.
This year's Roy and Conroy came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
However, this year there is another newcomer here.
"Yi has been outstanding with the Timberwolves this season."
Seeing that Ye Si's eyes have been on Yi Jianlian's body, as Yi Jianlian's agent, the star creature named Anthony Washington said to Ye Si with satisfaction.
As the No. 4 pick in the draft, Chinese, and a compatriot of Yao and Yes, Yi's performance has been one of the most talked about of all rookies this year.
It can be said that in addition to Durant, a rookie with the world's malice on his back, the next is Oden and Yi.
With so much pressure on his back, Yi has performed well with the Timberwolves.
Of course, Yi's outstanding performance with the Timberwolves is not only his own efforts, but also the fact that the young players of the Timberwolves are really friendly to him.
Rudy Gay, the boss of the Timberwolves, is a good friend of Ye.
Yi's inside partner with the Timberwolves, Al Jefferson, is Ye's brain-dead fan.
The Timberwolves' point guard, Randy Foye, is also a fan of the Leaf.
After knowing that Yi could live in the Ye family, those young people of the Timberwolves were simply not too good to Yi Jianlian.
Yi is a very introverted and shy person, and the environment of a team is really important to him.
Thankfully, the Timberwolves are the best place for Yi to grow up.
Here he can get care, protection, friendship, and the exciting sense of chasing dreams of young people.
The only bad thing may be that Minnesota is too cold.
Let Yi, a person who is used to the hot environment, a little uncomfortable.
Yi Jianlian's performance and data in the Timberwolves, Ye Si can also know from the public statistics.
In every game between Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue, Ye Si has paid attention to the data after the game.
Not only Ye Si is concerned, Ye Si knows that Yao Ming is also concerned.
Both Ye Si and Yao Ming are well aware of what the growth of Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue means to them in 2008.
Judging from the data, Yi Jianlian's growth is very good.
Judging by the speed and consistency of his shots that he is now practicing here, his growth is not just statistical.
I have to say that the Timberwolves do have a set of ways to cultivate the interior line.
Yi Jianlian's interior partner Al Jefferson was just a potential interior with an average of 8+5 per game when he left the Celtics.
After Jefferson went to the Timberwolves last season, the data was 16+11, if it wasn't for Milicic's progress last season, the fastest improvement award last season probably belonged to Jefferson.
This season, Jefferson has directly grown into an interior player who averages 20+10 per game.
Let's not talk about whether Al Jefferson's real strength has reached the standard of 20+10, in terms of data, Al Jefferson's data is indeed very bluffing.
This is a superstar stat at the level of Garnett, Duncan and Yao Ming.
For young players, sometimes it's not good to be too data-driven.
But sometimes, the numbers mean a lot, if not all, to the young players.
Regardless of the current strength, being able to brush up on the data is an excellent source of confidence for young people.
Yi Jianlian is doing well with the Timberwolves.
Sun Yue on the other side is not doing so well in the Wizards.
Ye Si could get calls from Arenas every day, about calls to Sun Yue.
Arenas is a bit neurotic and a bit like Afralo in this regard.
And more like Afflaro, the thief likes to call him.
Quite annoying.
That's why Yes also likes to hang up Arenas's phone very much.
Arenas is also really persevering, no matter how he hangs, Arenas is right.
And there is no one outside, as if we know each other very well.
Ye Si felt that they didn't know each other that well, and that he just regarded Arenas as an ordinary friend!
It's just that Arenas doesn't think so.
So from time to time, he even complained about why Ye Si hung up on his best friend.
GodTM's best friend!
One day, Arenas suddenly talked about Sun Yue on the phone, and found that Ye Si, who liked to hang up on his phone, did not hang up on him, but listened carefully from the beginning to the end, and Arenas seemed to have discovered a new continent.
Yes pays attention to Sun Yue very much, more than his best friend!
Discovering Arenas in this new world was quite exciting.
In the subsequent training, life, and even when going to Harbin beer together, Arenas will always have Sun Yue by his side.
Yes not interested in my business? It's okay now, because Yes is interested in Sun Sun's affairs!
As long as Sun Yue's affairs have my affairs, and my affairs are mixed with Sun Yue's affairs, Yes is interested in Sun, so naturally he will be interested in me?
Arenas, who has a very witty brain circuit, forcibly made Sun Yue his 'friend'.
And the kind of 'good friends' with whom you can visit his arsenal.
For Arenas, the relationship is not good enough to let anyone know how powerful his arsenal is.
Every time he went to Arenas's house to visit the weapons in Arenas's arsenal that he didn't know how many times he could swoop him, Sun Yue always felt that every time he left Arenas's house, his back was cold and his clothes were soaked.
It's horrible, it's really horrible!
Arenas was already funny, such a funny person, and there are so many guys on his hands, it's scary.
At least Ye Si heard from Arenas' words, and Sun Yue was scared enough.
Sun Yue wanted to escape from Arenas.
Sun Yue, who was taken by Arenas all the time, let alone escaped from Arenas, Sun Yue didn't even dare to be a little different from Arenas, Arenas trained for 12 hours, and Sun Yue didn't dare to train for 11 hours and 59 minutes.
I really don't dare!
From Arenas's words, Ye Si could clearly feel how frightened Sun Yue was now.
Who knows one day when this guy with a bit of a funny brain gets angry, and this guy is so angry that he doesn't know where to take out a weapon and make him burst out.
Normal people can't do such things, Arenas can do it!
Sun Yue had seen Arenas bring a submachine gun to the locker room as if nothing was happening!
This is something that no team is allowed, but even if the Wizards know that Arenas is so arrogant, no one dares to care.
After Arenas led the Wizards to the Eastern Conference Finals last season, he was a god-like presence with the Wizards.
In short, every time I heard Arenas talk about the friendship between him and Sun Yue, Ye Si always had a feeling that he didn't know what to say.
These two goods really didn't find Sun Yue's fear.
Sun Yue made friends with Arenas at the Wizards, a friend who terrified him, a friend who made him want to run away but couldn't.
Sun Yue's current 'situation' in the Wizards is not very good, but although he is threatened by Arenas' life, Sun Yue is quite reused by the Wizards on the court.
This draft template is the Magic + Pippen guard who has started all of them with the Wizards this season.
He averaged 28 minutes per game, 6 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.2 blocks per game.
Well, 27 percent from the field and 11 percent from three-point range.
Sun Yue is also one of those fallen Jordans and magicians, and he now has a new nickname, the Iron King of the Imperial Capital, Washington Rondo.
Arenas is quite iron in the Wizards, and as a player modeled after Magic + Pippen, Sun Yue has received a lot of attention in the United States.
Sun Yue is the 20th pick, but he is the second Asian guard to enter the NBA in the first round after Yes.
When the draft was approaching, Sun Yue was even the biggest favorite on the list for a while.
The attention of such a player is definitely more than just a 20th pick can explain.
The media's expectations for such a player are definitely not just perfunctory with the 20th pick.
Sun Yue responded to these concerns and expectations and handed over this answer sheet.
Sun Yue naturally received a lot of ridicule in the NBA.
Sun Yue's data is a little better than Longduo in the same period.
Rondo received a lot of criticism because of Yes by his side, and directly climbed to the first place on the garbage list.
Sun Yue was not so criticized because he was Arenas by his side, but now Sun Yue is still on the garbage list.
Right now, the American media hates Rondo-style point guards the most.
Sun Yue is now in ninth place on the garbage list, one place below the Lakers' point guard Kidd.
As far as Sun Yue's current treatment in American public opinion is concerned, the average team would have been put into the cold palace a long time ago.
But with the Wizards, they are still starters every game.
This surprised those media reporters and experts.
Rondo, Kidd and Sun Yue, why are these Rondo-style point guards hacked so badly by them, but they are still reused by the team?
Don't you know that they are cancer?
Or is there really a lot of shining points on their bodies that can hide their cancer points?
Let's not talk about Rondo and Kidd, for Sun Yue.
Sun Yue's cancer points are not so important.
The Wizards don't need Sun Yue's offensive ability, what the Wizards want is Sun Yue's defense and height vision on the guard line.
Just help Arenas share the defensive pressure and give Arenas the ball at the right time that he can't pass with his average height.
Compared with Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue is quite bad in all aspects of the wizards, but that is only compared to Yi Jianlian.
As the No. 20 pick in the Class of 2007, he was the eighth-most player in the Class of 2007 and ranked third in blocks per game, third in steals per game and third in assists per game.
Coming back to his senses from Sun Yue's condition, Ye Si once again set his eyes on Yi Jianlian.
After looking at it for a while, Ye Si got up and prepared to leave.
Seeing that Ye Si was about to leave, Yi Jianlian came out of the state of training hard.
"Hard work is important, but protecting your body is even more important."
After Ye Si said this to Yi Jianlian behind him, he walked out of the training hall of Garfield High School.
"Yi, I think Ye is right, you need a more scientific training plan."
In fact, Anthony Washington has long wanted to change Yi Jianlian's training plan.
But Yi Jianlian never agreed.
This is a player who has worked hard in his bones.
It's not much worse than the original leaf.
"Yi, if you want to hurry, you will have more important tasks next year."
There are more important tasks for next year......
Yi Jianlian, who was hesitating, finally nodded.
"I see."
Some players, you need to worry that once he relaxes, he won't be able to tighten up again.
Some players, you don't have to worry about him being lazy at all.
After the Thanksgiving holiday, the Seattle SuperSonics will host the New Jersey Nets, who are now second-to-last in the East.
Now the bottom of the East is the Heat, who just lost to the Rockets and lost all 12 games.
The penultimate is the Nets, who are now 2-10.
The Cavaliers had just beaten the Raptors hard, giving up the penultimate spot to the Nets.
For the Nets team, Yes has really been looking forward to it for too long.
Yes's expectations for the Nets are not expecting a win from this team.
An ordinary victory, it really can't be worth his expectations.
Yes is looking forward to the arrival of the Nets, mainly looking forward to the strength of this team!
This is a team that can allow Yace to accomplish that task with Durant!
Hidden mission: I just don't score
Requirements: Shoot more than 50% from the field in an NBA game where you take more than 30 shots
Mission Reward: Reward Durant for his three-point shooting potential
Durant's task is very difficult to accomplish.
Shooting 30 times in a game and shooting more than 50% is very difficult for Durant now.
Durant's matchup was too poor, and after the matchup, his shooting was inconsistent.
If you break through the basket, you can improve the shooting percentage, but Durant doesn't have enough ball-handling ability.
And yes is also afraid that Durant will get injured in order to complete his mission, which is not something he wants to see.
Yes wants to complete this task as soon as possible, and if he doesn't wait for Durant to grow up and complete this task, he can only expect to play a team that is really weak enough for him to do whatever he wants.
The Heat are now the team with the worst record in the league.
But the Heat are definitely not the weakest team in the league!
The weakest team in the league right now is the Nets.
The Nets, who lost Kidd and Carter, like the Heat, traded all their valuable players in the summer for a complete rebuild.
The teams are all a rebuilding team with a pile of garbage, with Jefferson at the heart of the Nets' rebuilding and Wade at the heart of the Heat.
And although the Heat's interior line is not so good, the partnership of Haslem and Vallejo is still very pressure on Durant to go to the basket.
But the Nets are different.
The Nets are really pretty bad in every way.
This team is almost nothing but Richard Jefferson.
On November 23, 2007, in the long-awaited game, Yees led the SuperSonics to a 106-98 home victory over the underdogs New Jersey Nets.
In the eyes of Seattle SuperSonics fans, this should be a game with little suspense.
With the strength of the Nets, no matter how you look at it, they don't have any spectacular games at the home of the supersonic speeds.
But in this game, the Nets and the SuperSonics really have a little bit of grandeur.
In the games before this season, Yes did his best to create opportunities for Durant.
But compared to this game, it's really a drop in the bucket!
Durant in this game looks like Yes's 'little Bebe' who needs to be taken care of in all aspects.
Under Yes's careful care, Durant played the first game of his career in this game with a shooting percentage of more than 50%.
In this game, Durant scored a career-high 48 points on 18-of-36 shooting.
A second before the game, Durant's stats were 17-of-35 shooting, and Yes originally thought that this game would also be a failure.
Unexpectedly, in the last second of the game, Durant threw Jefferson's defense outside the three-point line and actually scored.
Just 50%!
It's really scary, Jefferson defends well, and Yes doesn't even know what Durant relied on to get in.
Is it really metaphysics?
However, no matter what, Durant's hidden mission of 'I just don't score' has finally been completed.
Hidden mission: I just don't score
Requirements: Shoot more than 50% from the field in an NBA game where you take more than 30 shots
Task Status: Completed
Mission Reward: Reward Durant for his three-point shooting potential, 90.
Ye Si looked at the stats panel, his three-point shot stats had changed.
Three-point: 40 (90)
