Chapter 137: Data Maniac

The two of them chatted as if no one was talking, never thinking that Chen Shu might not necessarily want to join the Rockets, but in the eyes of these team management, players can be classified as commodities, as long as they come up with enough chips, anyone can be exchanged.

"Haha, when it comes to data, this rookie is even more powerful! I studied his stats and he played 10 games for the Suns with 7 wins and 3 losses! With the strength of the Suns, this is a remarkable achievement... Talking about data, Morey, a data expert, was immediately interested, Morey's basketball philosophy relies heavily on data analysis, he prefers three-point shooting over mid-range, and created his "magic ball theory".

"Is the Suns' performance directly related to him as a rookie?" However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the owner, and it was clear that Alexander didn't pay much attention to the situation of other teams in the NBA.

"Hehe, yes, after Nash's injury, this rookie became the offensive core of the Suns! In these 10 games, he averaged 17.4 shots per game, hitting 8.5, and the shooting rate reached 48.9%, including 10.3 shots per game and hitting 5 of 5 on the 3-point court, and the 3-point shooting rate reached an astonishing 48.5%, ranking first in the league in terms of average shots and hits per game! averaged 24.5 points, 7.6 assists, 3 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 3.2 turnovers per game! He's a phenomenal player! Boss, believe me, this is a phenomenal player, his three-point is not only accurate but also prolific, even more threatening than his two-point point, so he can open up space and better dribble the whole team. And it fits well with my basketball theory, and China Chen is definitely a player not to be missed by the Rockets! ”

Morey said a lot of things with some excitement, but Alexander's expression gradually changed from a hint of joy just now to a little tangled. Obviously, as the boss, he did not regard Morey's praise of Chen Shu as a good thing, not that he didn't believe in Morey's vision, on the contrary, he believed in Morey's judgment very much, which is why Morey has been able to sit firmly in the position of general manager since 07. What really made him entangled was his willingness: since Chen Shu is so good, then other teams can see that it is difficult for the Rockets to get Chen Shu, even if they can really get it, then they will definitely have to pay a big price, after all, no team is a fool.

"How is Chen Shu's current contract?" Alexander was silent for a moment.

"It's still a one-year contract with a final salary, but I think the Suns should have reached a contract extension agreement with Chen Shu in private, but there is no official announcement, and I think the value of this contract will not be low." Morey also put away his excitement at this time.

The discussion between the two was interrupted by a cheer from the audience, and it turned out that Parsons of the Rockets took advantage of the Suns' defensive holes, received a pass from point guard Dragic, and dunked under the basket, allowing the Rockets to score 2 points first.

Looking back, Chen wrote the defense of Dragic, after a few shakes, moved a step sideways, and made a strong 3-point shot from the outside, but Dragic did not lose position, stretched out his arm to interfere in place, and the 3-point popped out of the frame.

The basketball bounced to the right side of the low post, and instead of squeezing into the basket, Scola picked up the rebound and counterattacked with a one-handed long pass, Dragic, who passed the half, decisively played the ball to Martin, who had already arrived on the right side of the front court outside the three-point line.

After Martin received the ball, the Suns defenders were about to shoot their horses, Martin looked at the basket with both eyes, made a shooting feint, and immediately buried his head in dribbling to break through, shaking off Brown, who had not had time to stand firm, and then a stop-and-go jump shot, 2 points long-distance shot!

Basketball hollow into the net, 0:4. Martin rubbed his hands with some relief, the shooting bag that had been lost in several games in a row seemed to be back today.

Chen Shu, who rushed all the way over, saw Martin's shot, although he had fought with the Rockets once before, but in that game, Martin's presence was not high, and he kept playing iron, and Chen Shu didn't pay much attention to his shooting posture.

Martin's shot has an upward push and a small angle of arms opening, so that the shooting point is low, but Martin shoots quickly and jumps high to avoid being blocked, and Martin's shooting posture has always been so weird, but throughout his career, the shooting percentage is still good. It seems that Martin must have gone through a long period of practice to develop such a bizarre position with a high hit rate.

Chen Shu received the ball in the backcourt, quickly rushed to the front court with the ball, missed a shot before, Chen Shu also felt that this game didn't seem to feel very good. Facing Dragic's defense again, Chen Shu did not continue to shoot strongly, but called Morris to block and dismantle, Dragic couldn't catch up, so he could only choose to change the defense, so that 2 dislocations were formed, Chen Shu broke into the 3-point line, and it was obvious that Scola could not keep up with Chen Shu's footsteps.

After Chen Shu dribbled for a pause, the rhythm changed, and he immediately rushed forward, instantly shook off Scola, took 3 steps and made 2 no, inserted into the restricted area, made a 2-point layup, and scored easily. The score is 2:4.

Chen Shu's attack, one by one, the rhythm is very good, and he can get rid of the misplaced defense in an instant. Kitry nodded with satisfaction, and Chen Shu's on-the-spot experience has improved again, this is the most improved rookie he has ever seen.

In the rematch, Martin tasted the sweetness of the attack and quickly made a mutual cover with Scola on the outside. Martin has been in the league for many years and will not always make strong shots like Chen Shu. After covering, Scola quickly went down to the left low post, pulling the defense on the one hand, and receiving it at any time on the other. Martin got to the top of the arc with a cover and Dragic's pass was in place, jumping vertically before Brown staggered to the chase block.

Martin's shot was as swift as a Western cowboy duel, his hands flickering around his waist, his arms not extended, his eyes not blinking, and he was in the heat of life. The ball does not leave the waist, like a dagger and a revolver, and the murder weapon is contained in the sheath, and the murderous aura is overflowing, only in the snap of the fingers.

Although the shooting posture was a little ugly, Chen Shu actually saw a little elegance in it. In fact, Martin and Maddie have some strange similarities: they are thin, have long limbs, have superhuman bounces of more than 40 inches, are dexterous, fast, and the first step is unbelievably fast. They all have a strange sense of the ball, and they can easily pull out finger-twisted layups, and shoot from all angles as light and subtle as a bird feather trembling.

"Huh!" Martin scored three outside points, too!

2:7。

After the 3-point rush, Martin, who was a little excited, straightened his rocket-red hairband, glanced at Chen Shu, who was a little stunned, smiled slightly, and turned to retreat. Apparently Martin thought his brilliant projection had stunned the Asian rookie. But in fact, Chen Shu was just surprised that Martin could play such an ugly shooting posture with a sense of elegance, which had to make people feel good. Admire.

Looking back, Chen Shu continued to block and dismantle Morris, still playing small and big with the old routine, but the Rockets, who had suffered a loss, were obviously prepared, Parsons's assistance defense was very timely, and Chen Shu broke through and was caught by 2 people. However, Chen Shu has encountered a lot of this scene, and he can already seize the opportunity well and play the ball quickly.

Parsons's defense was very resolute, Chen Shu did not try to accelerate through the closing of the two, but took 1 step, holding the basketball, and threw it to the side and back in the back, at this time Dudley, who was in the vacant position, received the ball, and immediately broke through to the bottom line to make an emergency stop, and the 2-point shot was also hit! The beautiful no look pass startled a commotion in the audience.

4:7。
