In the summer of 2008, a high-spirited Roy was in training camp with Greg Oden, the first-choice center he had drawn a year earlier, and LaMarcus Aldridge was able to welcome his new interior partner.

Although the Trail Blazers lost a lot of players in the summer, none of those departures had as much impact on the Trail Blazers as Miller's arrival.

The former assist king has greatly relieved Roy's possession pressure on the offensive end, making Roy's new season more comfortable on the offensive end.

And the likes of Howard and Pendegraf will undoubtedly greatly enhance the strength of the fourth position. Compared to last season, the strength of the Trail Blazers has increased significantly.

Trail Blazers summer get: Miller (PG), Juwan Howard (PF), Udoka (SF), Pendegraf (PF/Rookie), Cunningham (F/Rookie)

Summer lost: Rodriguez (PG), Frye (PF), Diogu (PF), Shawick Randolph (PF)

Speaking of pioneers, Li Forest was most impressed by two things.

The first is to beat Durant in the 2007 draft to become the top pick, and Oden was destroyed by injury and the Wizards.

The second was in their fifth game of last season, when Huang Mambarroi beat a fateful opponent - the Houston Rockets by 0.8 seconds.

Yao Ming hit a shot before the end of that game, 99-98,

The Trail Blazers were left with only a brief 0.8 seconds.

At the end of the timeout, Roy cleverly ran outside the three-point line, caught the ball and shot instantly, while Artest on the side and Maddie on the front had no time to block, and the basketball hit the net with an arc.

At that moment, the Rose Garden Stadium was in a boil, and Roy hugged his teammates in celebration.

The call for "MVP" resounded throughout the audience.

The shock that that shot brought to Rockets fans was huge!!

Yao Ming's career number of kills has reverted to 0.

Overall, last season's Trail Blazers were eye-catching, not only did the Trail Blazers have an excellent record of 54-28 (the best record in the last nine years), but they also returned to the playoff stage after a six-year hiatus, but they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs due to their lack of experience, which also fulfilled the Rockets' wish to break the first-round curse.

Roy had a career-high finish last season.

On December 19, 2008, Roy turned into a nightmare for the Suns, Roy showed his individual offensive power perfectly, scoring 52 points on 14-of-27 shooting, as well as a staggering 19-of-21 free throws, averaging 22+5+5, per 24.1 per game from 08 to 09, 26.7+4.8, per 25.9 in 6 playoff games, and was selected to the All-NBA Second Team.

Roy's ball-handling and high-post jumpers are in full swing, and his left and right hands are basically the same when he lays up, and he doesn't have flashy crossovers, but he can mix five or six feints in a dribble escape.

This season, even though Roy's speed has decreased slightly compared to the 08-09 season due to injury, he has a better grasp of the time difference and is the only reliable ball-handling breakthrough player on the Trail Blazers.

…………

The clock was fast approaching the night of the game.

The audience at the Ford Center was still full, and after this game, the Thunder were going to play away again.

The Trail Blazers fielded a luxurious starting lineup: PG: Miller, SG: Roy, SF: Batum, PF: Aldridge, C: Oden

Li Linlin's expression instantly became more bitter than bitter melon after seeing the familiar faces on the opposite side, the Trail Blazers did not have a weak starter, and the Trail Blazers were still sitting on the bench: Bayles (PG), Blake (PG), Fernandez (SG), Oterlow (SF), Pulzbilla (C), Webster (SG), Howard (PF) and other powerful rotation players.

They now have a roster depth far beyond the Thunder, and it is not easy for the Thunder to play if all the starters are there, not to mention that there are three fewer starters in the five major starters.....

Or the most important brother three.

Even though the No. 8 branch is possessed, Li Forest also knows the difficulty of this game.

The Thunder's lineup is: PG: Forest Lee, SG: Harden, SF: Sephorosa, PF: Collisson, C: Ibaka

After the start of the first quarter.

Roy showed his personal attack ability vividly and exquisitely.

Roy hit a layup, Roy hit a three-point shot, and Roy hit a catch-and-shoot jumper to score seven points in a row.

Lee Forest was taken care of by the Trail Blazers, who sent Outlaw-James Jones-Roy to use wheel tactics to defend Lee Forest, and Lee Forest's opening hand was also not good, and he missed three consecutive shots.

The Portland Trail Blazers opened the game with a 7-0 run to the Thunder.

Brooks immediately shouted to stop!!

Rearrange tactics, activate contingency plans, and if the Thunder fall too far behind, they simply can't catch up.

After the pause.

The Trail Blazers continued to launch an onslaught against the visitors, forcing Lee to focus on defense, and Lee drew a foul on Roy on the defensive end after a timeout, and Roy hit one of two free throws.

For the time being, Harden and Ibaka are mainly responsible for the offensive end of the Thunder, and at this time, Harden took advantage of the Trail Blazers' unfamiliarity with him to reluctantly diversify the Thunder's offense.

With 10 minutes left in the first quarter, Sefrosa broke the ball and quickly passed the ball to the fast Lee Forest.

In the face of the opposing defender, Li Forest did not choose to go directly to the basket, but passed the ball back to Ibaka, and Ibaka's layup was fouled by the opponent and hit both free throws.

Immediately after the next round, Ibaka reciprocated Li by passing the ball to the fast-inserting Li Forest on the inside, and Li Forest made an easy layup to score the first point.

After that, Li Linlin's performance on the offensive end was not good, and the tall and long-arm Otrau effectively limited Li Linlin's play.

Li Forest only made 1 of 7 shots in the first quarter, and at the end of the first quarter, Li Forest only scored 6 points and made 1 steal.

After the start of the second quarter of the game, the Trail Blazers more effectively limited the play of Li Forest, and they kept pressing the Thunder to play.

Lee came on the court three minutes into the second quarter, and it was difficult for Lee Forest to get a chance in the face of the Trail Blazers' tight defense.

With 6 minutes and 40 seconds left in the second quarter, Li Forest faced Otlaw's defense, forced a breakthrough layup and caused the opponent to foul, but unfortunately missed two free throws.

After that, the Trail Blazers continued to send James Jones and Roy to defend Lee Forest, a very successful wheel defense tactic, Lee Forest shot just 2 of 7 in the second quarter, and scored 6 points and 2 assists.

In addition, on the defensive end, Lee Forest did not play well.

Before the end of the first half, Lee Forest also failed to prevent Roy's breakthrough layup, which not only allowed the Trail Blazers to maintain a 10-point lead, but also damaged his face at home.

The biggest advantage of the Trail Blazers now is that they have gathered all the young talents into a team, from the No. 1 to the No. 5 positions, whether they are the main players or substitutes, they can find strong players or potential players.

Trail Blazers coach Mike McMillan doesn't have to worry about the lineup, and even if the main players are plagued by injuries, he is fully able to find the right players to make up for the lineup.

In addition, the addition of Miller will greatly enrich the offensive tactics of the Trail Blazers.

In addition to the same routines that revolved around Roy and Aldridge last season, the Trail Blazers have also played a more fluid offense under Miller.

The former NBA assist king greatly eased the pressure on Roy's possession on the offensive end, and the interior controlled by Aldridge and Oden got plenty of easy scoring opportunities in the first half.

Miller's outburst allowed every player in the Trail Blazers to grow their scoring stats, and throughout the first half, the former assist leader was on full display.

Li Linlin's most depressed thing was that he met the Great Emperor Oden, who had just recovered from injury in this game......

At halftime, 56-46.

The Trail Blazers lead the Thunder by 10 points on the road.

Lee scored just 12 points on 3-of-14 shooting in the first half.
