"I'm going to play Carey. Irving? You know, Mr. Cole, Irving and I are very different point guards. Addison was stunned for a moment, then smiled noncommittally. It's not because he doesn't want to be a sparring partner for the Warriors, anyway, at this time, it is estimated that everyone will spend fifty or sixty percent of their energy as a warm-up during training.

"But you and Owen are both very destructive, and Stephen and they have been hard to find such a pressure opponent in training these days, maybe you can help them get back to where they were when they were under pressure." Kerr patiently explained to him, even though such an explanation made Leandro, who served as a backup point guard, a point guard. Barbossa and Justin. Holiday had mixed expressions, but they all acknowledged what the manager said. The Warriors mostly play the opposing team off the bench in tactical training, which is understandable from a tactical standpoint, but Barbosa and Holiday can put very little pressure on Curry, especially on the offensive end. In the finals, Curry has to face Carey, who is a god who blocks and kills God and Buddha blocks and kills Buddha as soon as he feels his hand. Owen, he can't find that feeling right now.

Addison thought for a few seconds before shrugging his shoulders, "Don't expect too much from me, guys, I haven't played in an official game for over a week...... I don't even know what I'm in right now. ”

"Don't be presumptuous, buddy, and besides, you can just get me excited!" Curry smiled and patted Addison on the shoulder, but this sentence made the young Chinese can't help but feel a chill down his spine.

"My God, Stephen, can you please stop saying things that make me creep...... If I can get you 'excited', then Ashaye is probably going to kill someone......"

Addison's complaint caught Curry off guard and had to roll his eyes, but the Warriors' coaching staff was neat and ready to start as soon as they decided. This simple intra-team grouping is clear, that is, the bench lineup plays the role of the opponent team against the main lineup, but the original backup point guard Barbossa is now replaced by Addison. His backcourt partner is Sean. Livingston, with Andre on the front line. Iguodala, David. Lee and Festus. Azeli, I have to say that the Warriors' rotation roster reserve is really the top level in the league, and this kind of roster thickness is enough to make countless teams salivate. In Addison's opinion, the Heat's rotation lineup is already very good, but there is still a significant gap compared to the Warriors.

– These talented bench players are likely to play a crucial role in the Finals...... Especially against the Clevelands' sloppy rotation......

Addison, who was thinking to himself, looked at a few of his temporary teammates around him, moving his limbs to make it feel like he could get back on the court. The first attack of the main lineup is more casual, Stephen. Curry made a run around the post under the cover of the center's uplift, and immediately took the shot after receiving the ball 60 degrees from the left side of the three-point line. Addison didn't chase very closely, but Curry's three-pointer missed and bounced off the back basket. Lee protects the rebound.

Addison dribbled unhurriedly towards the frontcourt, and the lack of a formal game for more than a week did not seem to have made him feel unfamiliar, and the sense of competition that had become instinctive instantly returned to every nerve in him. Since you want him to play Carey. Irving, then he simply moved his offensive style as close to the Cavaliers point guard as possible, and it just so happened that with players like Andreas Iguodala and Livingston on the bench, he could put his heart and soul into firepower.

At the top of the arc, the ball was passed to Iguodala on the wing, and the opponent immediately understood Addison's intentions, and the two of them quickly passed the ball back after the two crossed runs very tacitly, allowing the Chinese point guard to chase Stephen on the wing. Curry. The rest of his teammates were very clever enough to run to the other side, creating an empty weak side for Addison's singles.

"Be careful at 60° to the right, this is Carey. Irving's favorite singles area is also his most efficient offensive hotspot. Addison lowered his center of gravity and whispered to Curry, "There's LeBron anyway. James is here, don't treat Irving as a point guard...... His position in that team is clear, he is an absolute scorer. As long as there are no injuries, his task in scoring is even heavier than that of LBJ. ”

"Thank you for the guidance, Mr. Addison, it seems that the series with the Cavaliers has left a deep impression on you......" Curry looked at Addison with a smile, and the other party's rigorous performance also made him gradually restrain some of the remaining relaxation before, he knew that Addison wanted him to enter the finals as soon as possible.

"Of course, that's why I'll tell you everything I know. After all, I still prefer my hometown team to win the championship compared to the Cavaliers. ”

Before the words fell, Addison's right hand holding the ball suddenly increased the strength and slapped the basketball, and then the center of gravity quickly pulled up and rushed forward towards the right side. Curry hurriedly followed his opponent's sideways, and Addison's right hand took advantage of the situation to slap the ball from the front of his body to the left side of his body, shifting his center of gravity to the left.

Curry, who was prepared, took a half-step back with his right leg, and his explosiveness was nowhere near as explosive as Addison, so it was crucial to give himself a cushion. However, Addison was waiting for Curry to retreat, and his left hand that took the basketball slapped from behind again to the right side, and the second change of direction was quickly broken by Curry's front leg! Curry, who didn't have time to turn back to his position, was immediately wiped by the opponent, so he had to turn around and chase back as soon as possible! But Addison didn't plan to rush to the inside line at all, but suddenly pulled the ball in his right hand towards the baseline near 18 feet, moved a step to the side lightly, jumped up directly on the spot, and held up the basketball with a slight back!

"!!Shh The sound of the net being brushed was crisp and pleasant, Curry's block from the left didn't help, and no other player on the weak side of the empty side could come over in time to make up for it.

“See？ That's not enough to deal with the Clevelands, and LBJ will be able to open up more space on the weak side than your bench lineup, and you'll have less defensive support at that point. Addison raised an eyebrow at Curry after the goal, "Trust me, the Cavaliers will definitely give Irving a lot of solo opportunities, he's the kind of monster who is more efficient at scoring when he has a defense in front of him than when he doesn't...... If you can't even stop me now, then what are you going to do to stop Carey tonight. Irving? ”

Curry's eyes narrowed slightly, and the previous playful expression finally became completely serious: "...... Makes sense, Addison...... I'm really going to get serious, it's the finals, I'm going to face Kyrie. Irving. ”

Steve standing on the sidelines. Cole and assistant coach Luke. Wharton glanced at each other, and he looked at Addison with great admiration as he ran back to the backcourt to prepare. The young man under the age of 20 is accurate and sharp in predicting the game to the point that Kerr's heart is cold, Curry still does not understand Addison's words thoroughly, what he really wants to tell the Warriors is not how strong Irving is, but that the Cavaliers are likely to target the Finals to open up the strong and weak side of the way to frequently let Irving single Curry. Curry's individual defense ability is at least average among many point guards in the league, but his less explosive power and lean physique limit his defensive ceiling.

- A player who is constantly on the pitch can analyze the opponent's predictions so accurately, coupled with his own good strength...... Once this young man has grown to the peak of his individual ability, and combined with a good squad of the team, what can he achieve? Will he be the Warriors' most formidable opponent in the future?

***

Addison's 5vs5 was over after just over 20 minutes, and the Warriors coaching staff didn't want to let the players waste too much energy on the morning of the game, and the reason why Addison was invited to play an intra-team game was just to let the players find their groove. However, even so, Addison was still addicted to being a scorer, scoring 15 points on 7-of-11 shooting in 20 minutes, quite successfully playing the role of Kyrie. Owen's character.

After training with the team until about 10:00 a.m., he temporarily said goodbye to Curry and the others, leaving Oracle Arena for Oakland Airport to prepare for the pick-up. Yes, the person he was going to greet this time was still Jersey, a friend he had made at Duke University. Granger, an NFL supernova who plays for the Baltimore Ravens. This guy knew that Addison lived in Oakland, so he ordered two more tickets to the front row of the Finals, and he was going to bring his girlfriend to the NBA Finals.

- Hopefully this guy's girlfriend will be the same person as the one from two weeks ago......

Addison, who was sitting in the corner of the airport hall, couldn't help but sneer, perhaps because the NBA Finals G1 is about to start, and the passenger flow of Oakland Airport today is not ordinary. Addison even saw a number of families or groups dressed in Arab costumes come out of the passenger tunnel, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it.

INTERVIEWER Has the NBA's global strategic influence been so great? That's the kind of sensation that only the top leagues can cause!

Jersey. Granger and his girlfriend finally struggled out of the crowd, and they saw Addison standing at the back of the pick-up crowd at a glance and hurried to meet him.

"I will never take any public transport in the summer again, never! Wait and see, Add, and when I get my max contract, I'm going to order a private jet! Sweaty Granger grumbled in a gruff voice, he was prone to sweating, and his T-shirt was almost half wet. However, to Addison's surprise, the girlfriend who was with him was still the same one he had been two weeks ago, named Erin. Graphic model of Clytz.

"Oracle Arena isn't my home stadium, so I can't book a VIP in the first row. But I still booked a front row seat, and Joe would come with us in the evening. Addison gave the tickets to Granger and Clyz, and he liked the feeling of friends and family going to the game together.

"Joe will go too? Doesn't your dad like basketball very much? Granger's eyes widened in surprise, he still knew something about Addison's adoptive father.

"But it's the finals after all, isn't it? Once many things reach a sufficient level, attraction will break our usual confinements and preferences. The corners of Addison's mouth curled upward, ready to leave the crowded airport with the Grangers.

At this moment, another group of people came out of the passenger passage, and unlike most of the passengers who came out in twos and threes, these people were obviously a team. There were four men in charge of security at the very end, and two or three young men and women with school bags behind them, and Addison, who was protected inside, could not see clearly from a distance, he frowned and ignored it. The reason why he looked at it twice was because all the members of the team were black-haired and yellow-skinned Asians, which attracted his curiosity.

"Probably a well-known person from Asia, looking at it like a rich businessman or an entertainment star...... or something," said Jersey. Granger looked at him with interest, "Obviously I'm here with a team of agents, and I'm quite aware of security." ”
