On October 27, the Heat ended all of their preseason schedules, and Addison played eight preseason games with the team, averaging 9.3 points, 7.5 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 2.3 steals in about 26 minutes per game, shooting 46.4% from the field.

As this year's No. 8 pick, Addison's performance should be worthy of his draft pick in addition to scoring, but he still has a lot of problems.

For example, the number of shots he takes from 10 feet out of the basket, for example, his negative stats of 3.1 turnovers and 2.5 fouls per game, for example, he can't come up with an effective way to crack the defense......

In the Heat's away game against the Golden State Warriors, the Chinese boy almost lost his way in the face of his hometown team's small-ball tactics and quick offensive rotation.

His opponent Stephen. Curry used his barely stoppable off-ball runs to shake Addison away again and again, and then found open space to shoot accurately. Until the end of the game, Addison didn't find a good way to defend, so he could only desperately follow up or quickly switch positions with his teammates to defend.

That game Stephen. Curry scored 28 points in 25 minutes and shot 5-of-7 from three-point range to easily blow out Addison, who was on the opposite side. Although the Chinese rookie assisted in the double, he still couldn't hide the reality that he was blown up.

Not only Addison, but the whole Heat team has a lot of headaches against the crazy lineup of Golden Statemen who shoot well from beyond the three-point line except for the center, and the Warriors are often able to use a few blocks and open cuts to find good shooting slots, which makes the Heat's defenders tired.

In that game, the Heat lost to their opponent by nearly 25 points, and Spoelstra switched to a dry water caretaker at the beginning of the fourth quarter and announced his surrender.

In his final preseason game at home against the Memphis Grizzlies, Addison got his first taste of what it means to be an 'NBA-level suffocating defense'.

The Grizzlies let Mike. Conley and Tony. Allen took turns defending Addison, and the two Defensive Team selections gave the boy a nightmare for the entire game.

Mike. Conley doesn't look particularly strong, but he's one of the best in the league in terms of physicality, as muscular as Addison, and very good at running and jumping. Even if his first step was slightly less explosive than Addison's, after being broken by the boy, Tony . Aaron will also come up in time to make up for it. The key member of the Celtics' championship period was only better than Conley in terms of defensive ability, and he was very good at juggling close pressing and appropriate clearance, both limiting the opponent's breakthrough and trying to avoid being fouled by the opponent.

The whole of Addison felt like he was confined to a swamp quagmire, and each time it was several times more difficult to get rid of than usual. With just four assists and six turnovers, the rookie wouldn't have been able to sneer at him if it weren't for the Grizzlies' poor offensive end, and Addison's late fourth-quarter layup for the layup, the rookie wouldn't have known how he would have been ridiculed by the media who didn't like him......

Even so, after the preseason, there are already some people who can't wait to jump out and pour cold water on the Heat.

"If you just look at the stats, it seems that Miami has selected a decent point guard who ranks first among rookies in the class of 2014 in assists. But I don't think this Chinese is the best of the rookies, and looking at his embarrassment against Stephen and Mike, he looks like a newborn baby offensively and defensively. In my opinion, either Dante. Exum or Zach. LaVine was enough to shake him off an entire North American continent. ”

That's ESPN review expert Nick. Wesley's comments on his profile about Addison, a Chinese boy who has faithfully played the role of 'Ai Hei' since his college days. Of course, he is better known as Yao Ming's full-time satirist, and in his eyes, everything the little giant of the East moves is 'stupid', which can prove that he cannot establish himself in the NBA, although Yao Ming has been selected to the league's best team at that time, and has been starting the all-name star game for several years in a row......

The various evaluations of Addison have not affected the Heat's expectations for the new season, and both the general manager, the head coach and the team's boss Wade have praised Addison's performance in the preseason and unanimously believe that the rookie will have a bright future.

Now that the team's attention has shifted to their first game of the new season, the regular season schedule has been released, and the Heat's first game opponent is intriguing Addison.

The Washington Wizards, led by All-Star point guard John Brown. Wall's capital team.

In the first game of entering the NBA, he encountered such a high-level opponent, which made the media in Miami sweat for Addison. Wall lost confidence by blowing up the outside and losing confidence, and the future of the Heat team was ruined.

However, Addison himself is very excited about the upcoming game, and he is now eager to play against Wall on the court, and in the preseason, due to the manager's limited strategy, the boy has not been able to show 100%, which makes him quite uncomfortable.

So he couldn't wait for the day the regular season started, so much so that the boys' excitement and anticipation were already showing in the team's training.

"Damn, when is this guy going to be able to shoot three-pointers??" The team was responsible for defending Addison's Norris. Kerr gritted his teeth and cursed, just now Addison received Wade's breakthrough ball on the right side outside the three-point line, usually boys will use the defensive gap to quickly break through the basket at this time, but this time he actually jumped up and shot outside the three-point line without hesitation.

Then the ball went through the net safely......

It was Addison's second three-point shot of the day, and his first hit. Spoelstra couldn't help but smile on the sidelines, in his opinion, restricting Addison's shooting in the preseason not only did not wear down his crosshairs, but made him train harder and improve his shooting percentage harder.

What pleased Addison's coaching staff the most was not his talent or spirituality, but the improvement that this kid was able to observe almost every day.

Spoelstra was relieved, at least Addison was not defeated by the upcoming powerful opponent in his heart, but became more and more full of fighting spirit.

"You look excited." In the locker room, Wade looked at Addison, who was changing clothes, and suddenly laughed, "The first official game made the fire in your body burn, didn't it?" ”

Wade has the best wardrobe in the locker room, and on his side is Chris. Bosh's wardrobe, on the other side was originally LeBron. James', which has been vacant since James' transfer this season, was recently designated by Wade to Addison.

This is also a privilege to be taken care of by the boss of the team......

The Chinese boy was wiping his wet hair with a towel, and he raised his eyebrows indifferently, acquiescing to Wade's guess.

'It was the same when I was a rookie, when I was shivering with excitement in the dressing room and Alonzo [Mourning] kept telling me to calm down." Wade remembered his rookie year, and his eyes gradually narrowed, "But you behaved much better than me, at least you didn't tremble." ”

Addison rolled his eyes, shrugged his shoulders, and trembled all over his body at this time, what should he do in the playoffs, convulsions and pass out?

"But you have to be careful, that point guard in Washington is not simple, that guy is the best in the league in terms of body and technique." Wade admonished the boy, John. Wall's strength should not be underestimated, and among these post-90s point guards in the league, although he is not as good as Ricky. Rubio and Carey. Irving is as popular as the media, but everyone knows this guy is one of the most underrated superstars in the league.

With an explosive body, a shooting star-like sprint, and increasingly sophisticated ball handling skills, he is the No. 1 template that combines the sharpness of a modern point guard with the all-round style of a traditional point guard.

The corners of Addison's mouth curled, he reached out and tapped his chest lightly, and then pointed at Wade, his face filled with calm and unhurried.

Of course, he knew Wall's strength, and he also knew that this guy was a well-known physical fitness man and a scud in the league. But if he didn't fight because of that, he wouldn't be Addison.

What's more, he himself is the first lightning-level guard to win the NCAA, and he has never feared any opponent in terms of ball control skills, not even a superstar in the top league.

- The victory will be ours, Dwyan.

"Specialized... Interview? Lin Yanmo's expression was a little dazed, and she looked at Uncle Qi who was smiling in a daze, "To Addison. Ann do an interview? We?? ”

Lao Qi coughed twice deliberately: "To be precise, it's me, not us, girl." ”

This ridicule made Lin Yanmo sober up from her daze, and subconsciously put on a tsundere disapproval: "However, our magazine has a really big face...... Now almost all basketball people in China are discussing Addison, and the club can actually win the right to his first interview in the NBA. ”

"Not to mention anything else, our club is also the most influential basketball professional magazine in China, as long as you give enough money and choose the right time, there is nothing impossible." Uncle Qi pushed his glasses, and his smile showed a hint of pride, "This time, the club directly contacted Addison's agent and the public relations department of the Heat team, and they also welcome Chinese media to do an interview with Addison." After all, Addison is not a superstar like Kobe and James...... Yes, yes, Curry, your Curry is a superstar too, okay? ”

The young woman wrinkled the bridge of her nose coquettishly: "...... So, Uncle Qi, are you planning to go by yourself this time? Don't take me anymore? ”

"It's not that I don't want to take you there, girl, aren't you not very interested in this Chinese rookie?" Uncle Qi deliberately raised his tone slightly, "When I have the opportunity to interview Curry one day, I will take you there." ”

Lin Yanmo pursed her lower lip slightly and thought about it, and her sweet smiling eyes slowly widened again.

"I don't care, I'm going to go this time! I finally met an exclusive interview, this is a good opportunity to increase experience, Uncle Qi, you must take me there! ”

"But, girl—"

"If you don't take me...... I'm going to call my dad......"

"Don't, don't......!!! Oh my God, little ancestor, you have spared me...... Can't I take you there?! ”
