Post-match press conference.

This time, the reporters finally got to a different topic.

Because... The list of slam dunk contests is out!

It's just that before the slam dunk contest list was announced, this group of trouble-provoking reporters obviously wouldn't be idle, and they first asked a other question: "I don't know what Li Ming, in your opinion, what does it mean that this league lets you participate in the slam dunk contest instead of the three-point contest?" Although Redick didn't make it to the three-point contest either! ”

I still can't get around Redick!

"It's okay... Next season continues... As long as Reddick speaks, he can make an appointment in private! "Li Ming didn't have much to say about Reddick.

It's hard steel, and bloody men are hard steel, don't say it!

"Then what do you think of the opponents in this slam dunk contest?" The reporter received a satisfactory answer and turned the subject back to normal chat.

"Uh-huh..." Li Ming hadn't seen the list of this slam dunk contest yet, so he asked the staff for one.

The list above is, naturally, four.

Mitchell, Nance Jr., and Mavericks Smith. And Li Ming... There were four people in total.

Three of these four are rookies this year, and one is Larry Nans, who is also a 15-year rookie and hasn't had a rookie contract yet!

However, although it has not been a few years since it entered the league.

It doesn't mean that the quality of this slam dunk contest is not good!

Li Ming, naturally, needless to say... The league's new superstar in the limelight.

Mitchell... The hottest newcomer under Li Ming...

Smith is also the new successor to the Mavericks after Nowitzki's retirement...

Including Nance Jr., his old father, Larry Nance, who was the winner of the first Slam Dunk Contest!

Other words... The title of the first slam dunk king was worn from his head!

After such a round, it can also be seen that although this session is all newcomers, the star flavor is not low at all.

Some media even called this slam dunk contest a battle of the future.

It can be seen that the evaluation is high and the expectations are high!

。。。。。。

Of course, no matter how high it is, that's for later. The next priority is the regular season game!

Next stop, Linson, they went to the Washington Wizards!

As a team owned by the capital, the Wizards are in a tepid and embarrassing situation in the league. It's not strong, it's not strong, but sometimes it's very strong.

So no NBA team would underestimate the Wizards.

Including the Bulls.

Although they are first in the East, while the Wizards are sixth in the East.

But Hojberg still had a tactical drill before the game!

Hojberg's tactical drills are not common, at least if the opponent takes him seriously!

The basketball atmosphere in Washington is still very strong, after all, the previous president was famous for his love of basketball.

With the leader taking the lead, the basketball atmosphere created is naturally needless to say... I can't hold it down when I get up.

In the midst of a frenzied shout.

Wizards players played, they... It is the young talent of the Alliance... It should have been to a higher height, but I don't know why ... I've never been in the middle of the stream!

The game entered the final stage of preparation with the buzzer...

The Bulls' starters, needless to say: point guard Li Ming, shooting guard LaVine, small forward Pounddexter, power forward Mirotic, and center Lopez.

On the Wizards' side: point guard Wall, shooting guard Beal, small forward Porter, power forward Morris and center Gortat.

John Wall, the first pick in the first round in 2010, not to mention how good that talent is!

Entering the NBA, he posted a triple-double in the second game of the regular season, becoming only the second rookie after Magic Johnson to score a triple-double and deliver six steals in the second game of his career.

It is also worth mentioning that John Wall's assists in the first six games of his career are also the first among any rookie in history, with a total of 61 assists.

It can be seen that he is born with the ability to read NBA-level defense, and he does not need to adapt to it at all.

At the same time, he averaged 16 plus 8 per game in his first season, and maintained this number for four seasons, achieving a season double-double in his fifth season, and 20 plus 10 per game in the next two years.

is a truly talented point guard.

Beal is another talented guard picked by the Wizards, who entered the league two years after Wall and was the third overall pick in the first round in 2012.

The talent may be worse than Wall's, but he is also a scoring guard who can average more than 10 points per game in his rookie season.

At small forward is Porter, who entered the league a year after Beal and was the talented small forward selected by the Wizards with the third pick in the first round in 2013.

However, he is more miserable!

With such a high pick, he can only have an average of 8.6 minutes per game in his rookie season, and his performance is extremely poor.

Fortunately, he continued to persevere, and finally last season, he made a different change, averaging 13.4 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2 assists in 32 minutes per game.

It can be said that ... It's a quasi-first-class performance of the striker.

After all, in the Wizards, the two on the guard line are the core, and the others will not have a lot of shots and ball handling.

The power forward was Morris, the No. 13 pick in the first round in 2011.

His physical fitness is not great, but his strength and offensive ability are acceptable, and his hard-working attitude has helped him establish himself in this league!

Sometimes that's the case!

Whether you can stand firm or not is not determined by talent, but by attitude!

The fact that he can now be the starting center of the Wizards is the best proof of that!

The center of the Wizards is Gortat, this is a real veteran, a 05 show, and a 05 second round pick, with a poor background and low talent, but people can stand on the NBA stage for more than ten years.

This is a real counterattack!

At that time, in his first season with the Magic, he averaged 6 minutes per game and only played 6 times!

In the second season, he played more games, but he still played less than 20 minutes.

It was such a bad upbringing, but he still took the opportunity of Howard's injury to get up.

This is the so-called opportunity for those who are prepared!

He caught it and never fell again!

He stayed in this alliance for thirteen years.

Recently, there have been some small floats, and they dare to ridicule the core of the house!

But fortunately, the two sides haven't really fought yet!

It's just that it can be seen that at the end of the season, two people will definitely have to go! It's unlikely that Wall will go, if Gortat does.

It is estimated that the starting position will be lost forever!
