Chapter 136: Machine Gun Garnett
Tonight, Davidson boldly gave each of these newcomers a red envelope of 500 evolution coins.
After all, they are shouting with a big mouth, and it's really inappropriate not to send a red envelope.
"Hey, hey, why didn't you kid send it to me, I want it too!" Sledgehammer rolled his eyes directly......
"You also want an old brother, everyone is a newcomer, you old man is making a lot of fun!" Davidson said speechlessly.
"I don't care, I want to ...... too"
Davidson could only send a red envelope to Sledgehammer, no wonder Sledgehammer can get along with newcomers, he doesn't have the appearance of an old buyer.
"I'll have a game tomorrow night, so I'll leave first."
"Xiao Gao, if you run into Brother Tiezhu and them going online in a while, tell Brother Tiezhu about tonight's events, and let them come to the club later tomorrow night." Davidson instructed Gao Xinyu.
Gao Xinyu is two years younger than Davidson, so there is naturally nothing wrong with calling Xiao Gao.
For those older rookie buyers, Davidson directly called his name.
"Don't worry, Brother Dai, I'll wait for them tonight, and I'll definitely relay your words to them." Gao Xinyu nodded and said.
……
The next night, the Kings played the final game of the four-game home game.
The opponent is the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The Timberwolves are still quite concerned because of Garnett, a high school student.
It's just that Garnett's performance, at least in terms of the opening situation, can't be said to be outstanding.
He scored 8 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist in his debut, and 0 points and 3 rebounds in the second game......
It wasn't until Game 6 that Garnett finally hit a good game that matched his fifth pick.
19 points, 8 rebounds and 1 block.
Six games on this one double-double, to say how outstanding this high school student is, it is certainly impossible to say.
Anyway, it's definitely not as good as Moses Malone, you must know that Malone averaged 18.8 points and 14.6 rebounds per game in his rookie season.
However, although Garnett's performance is not very good, the team still has great expectations for him, after all, the season has just begun, and a young man who has only played in the high school league has just played in the professional league, and can play such a performance, at least the Timberwolves management can accept it.
The '95 draft has now played six or seven games, and some clues can be seen in general.
Judging from the current situation, the overall strength is not as good as the rookie in '94, but this has to be the situation of removing the bug of Battle.
Battle is so buggy, so buggy that it overshadows all the rookies in recent years!
'93, '94 and '95 rookies, there's no rookie who can compare to Battle.
I'm afraid that O'Neill, the champion of '92, can be compared with Battle.
Battle has only played four games since the start of the season, scoring 43, 33, 27 and 30 points respectively.
With an average of 33.3 points per game, if it can be maintained, it will definitely be an existence that shocks the past and the present!
The only player in NBA history who averaged 30+ points per game in his rookie season was Chamberlain.
Even if he is as strong as Jordan, he only averaged 28.2 points per game in his rookie season.
It is foreseeable that if Battle can really maintain this average of points per game until the end of the season, let alone be the best rookie, as long as the King's regular season record can be justified, he is qualified to compete with Jordan for the regular season MVP!
……
In this game between the Kings and the Timberwolves, not many fans are looking forward to Battle vs. Garnett, after all, these two are not players of the same grade at all......
At least now, it seems that the two are not in the same grade.
What foolish fan would expect a player who averages 10 points per game and a player who averages 30 points on the battlefield, which is definitely full of food.
For some reason, the Timberwolves didn't let Garnett play too long, only playing 11 minutes in the whole game, and then he was pressed to the bench all the time.
Davidson wondered if it was the Timberwolves and was afraid that Garnett would anger Battle during the game and then be beaten up by Battle......
Think about it.
Although Mourning has only been suspended for two games, he has not returned until now and has been on the Heat's injury watch list.
Even a big muscle stick like Mourning has been hammered into the injury list, and it is not impossible for the skinny bamboo pole Garnett to be hammered.
The Timberwolves didn't expect to win anyway, so they simply didn't let Garnett play......
They knew very well that Garnett, a high school student, was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and that mouth was like a machine gun.
Battle scored 31 points in this game, the Timberwolves were too weak, and Davidson was really embarrassed to let Battle go to the court to abuse vegetables.
After playing the first eight games, the Kings have a record of six wins and two losses, which can be said to be outstanding.
Tied with the Seattle SuperSonics for the first spot in the Western Conference standings.
The strong teams in the west expressed their helplessness......
This season, the Bulls are rising again in the East, and they are worried about the Bulls, but the backyard of the West is on fire, and the Kings, who have been fishing, suddenly become extremely powerful.
Originally, the teams in the West that had a chance to reach the Finals were the SuperSonics, Jazz, Spurs and Rockets, but now there are more kings, which is really messy.
With five teams in place, the first round of the Western Conference playoffs is sure to be a tough one.
The rise of the king seemed to them to be too sudden, without any warning at all.
This season's Kings, compared to last season, actually didn't make any major changes, that is, Davidson came, and then Davidson brought Muressan.
I don't have any high-pick picks like the top three picks on hand......
As a result, it rose out of control.
It makes the teams feel a little unreasonable, if they want to rise, they have spent countless energy and time, and finally put together a set of strong lineups.
And so the king caught up with them.
The future prospects of the key Kings look even better than they are, as their inner twin towers are all young......
……
Many teams have regretted seeing the king's grand occasion.
I think if they had been more sincere in inviting Davidson, maybe their team would have become a second king now
With an inside twin tower like the Muba combination, and a casual outside star, it is a championship-level team!
And the outside star, as long as it is not for the special existence of Jordan, in fact, the difficulty of trading is not particularly great.
Wilkins, Drexler, Glen Rice and other outside stars have been traded in the past two seasons.
……
It's too late to say anything, the good things have already been taken up by the Kings, and unless the Kings go crazy, Davidson's position as the head coach of the Kings will definitely be secure.
