In the months since entering the top league, Addison has become accustomed to the urgency of back-to-back schedules, not to mention the fact that the game against the Lakers didn't take much energy, so he woke up early the next day.

"Add, would you mind talking to me...... What caused your aphasia in the first place? I remember you got sick, right? As he ate breakfast, Spoelstra asked Addison. The manager did not dare to use too direct words, for fear of touching the sore spot in the young player's heart.

Addison's movements paused slightly, and there seemed to be another terrible gunfire in the depths of his mind, and the figure of the man falling in his field of vision. The Chinese rookie's body shook unconsciously, but he immediately controlled himself.

- When I was younger, something bad happened...... It irritated me......

Spoelstra looked at the other party's words on his phone, and then looked at Addison's obvious reluctance to reveal more, and he had to give up the topic.

Team management is considering hiring a psychiatrist for Addison to treat his aphasia, and they've been working with Sam. Bernie communicated, but had not yet consulted Addison.

The Chinese rookie has sealed all the things and memories about aphasia in his heart, and he usually never talks about it with anyone, and he will mention it by chance in time.

Let's wait until we get back to Miami and talk to him about it officially......

***

Since the previous night's game against the Lakers was not over-consumed, the Heat players looked in good spirits and showed no signs of fatigue on their faces.

Even so, Spoelstra did not arrange high-intensity training in the morning, but only let the players do some adaptive exercises, which were mainly focused on recovering their physical fitness.

Spoelstra wasn't too scared of the Kings outside in this game, and the key was DeMarcus. Cousins, this center, although he has a bad brain from time to time, he is really strong.

Weighing in at more than 270 pounds, Cousins is a big tonnage, strong and good at back-to-back singles, and Spoelstra worries that Whiteside, who weighs less than 110 kilograms (235 pounds), will not be able to withstand the attack. He motioned to Chris. Bosh can let go of opposing power forward Derrick when necessary. Williams is packed, and as long as the big man of the Kings doesn't explode like crazy, then he has the confidence to win this game.

As for Rudy. Guy and Darren. Collison, Spoelstra believes Ruhr. Deng and Addison can handle their opponents.

And Mario. Chalmers, alas, is not on the list of top priorities of the coaching staff.

Whiteside himself was excited about the upcoming game, and the Kings were the starting point of his career, and it was here that he couldn't compete with Cousins before being snubbed by the uniform and eventually eliminated.

Now that he's back here, and the opponent is still the big black and stout guy, all of which makes Whiteside's fighting spirit burn sharply. He's going to use the game to tell the Kings uniform crew how wrong it is to let himself go, and he's no worse than Cousins!

Driven by this thought, Whiteside behaved very aggressively in pre-game training, and even took the initiative to pull Addison to practice shooting in the high post.

"Addison. Quiet? First Meeting...... "Before the game, Addison was checking his knee pads on the sidelines when a man walked up to him and offered to say hello.

The Chinese rookie looked up and found that it was Mario who walked up to him. Chalmers. The former Heat point guard didn't have a kind look on his face, just indifference and contempt.

"Tell you in advance, I'll be staring at you tonight, rookie, get ready." Chalmers said in a resolute tone, "Don't let anyone else bear my wrath for you." ”

Addison blinked and watched the other walk away without looking back. He remembers that Chalmers was not the starting point guard for the Kings this season, and that it had been Darren in previous games. Collison took the starting position.

- When you have time to play, then you can provoke me......

Sure enough, the Kings starting list on the big screen did not have the name of Chalmers. Collison has a firm grip on the starting point guard position.

The two sides jumped the ball in the center circle, and Cousins' bounce was much worse than Whiteside's, and the Heat center grabbed the basketball first and shot it directly to Addison.

Darren from UCLA. Collison is only 183 cm tall, and his physical fitness is only average in the NBA, although his defensive motivation is high, but the overall defensive quality is not good.

Addison didn't get tangled with Collison at the top of the arc, and directly used Whiteside's cover to rush into the three-point line. Cousins came up from under the basket to block the block, but Addison switched to his left hand and moved from the right corner to the left end of the free throw line. The pace of the Chinese point guard meant that Cousins had to keep up so as not to leave room for Addison to shoot.

Addison, who came to the left end, pulled the ball with his left hand, made a breakthrough, and handed the ball to his right hand when Cousins' footsteps moved, and sent the basketball down the left side of Cousins's body into the penalty area.

Whiteside, who had escaped Collisson, strode down just in time to receive a pass from Addison. He jumped to his feet before Cousins could turn around, slamming the ball into the basket with both hands!

"I'm no worse than anyone else!! Anyone!!! ”

Whiteside, who had won the dunk, shouted at the sky, and the boos of the audience could not hold down his arrogant and violent momentum. As for who Whiteside shouted this sentence to...... The benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise......

The referee glanced at the behavior of the Heat center, thought about it and still didn't award him a technical foul, perhaps he felt that this level of arrogance was within the tolerable range.

But Cousins was so angry that he choked, this guy just dunked on his head, and he dared to provoke like this?! He had long forgotten that Whiteside had been teammates with him, and he didn't remember that this guy had ever been eliminated by his own competition.

Offensive and defensive conversion, Darren. Collison took half the court only to find that it was not Addison who was at the top of the arc, but James who started in place of Wade. Ennis.

This was a defensive strategy discussed by Addison and Spoelstra before the game, and the Chinese rookie took into account Cousins' huge tonnage and offensive ability with the ball, as well as Darren Bush. Collisson's excellent outside projection, once the block is changed, the less than 80 kilograms Addison will definitely be easily crushed by Cousins. So the Heat simply arranged a substitution defense, with Ennis defending the No. 1 position and Addison marking Ben. McLemore.

Kings head coach Tyrone. Corbin glanced at Spoelstra and then turned his gaze back to the court, wanting to see how the team could perform against such a targeted defense.

Corbin still trusts Cousins' ability, and while the big man often makes mistakes he shouldn't make, his offensive ability is enough to rank in the top five of all centers on the roster.
