Chapter Fifty-Eight: The So-Called Stars

Whether a player can become a star or not, the most important thing is to look at four aspects: physical talent, basketball skills, ball sense and leadership temperament, of which you have three that are proper all-stars, and four that are superstar-level figures.

The first is how physical he is, which is necessary for almost every player to stand out and become a star, Nash, Thomas Jr., Paul, Iverson all have inhuman speed, Kobe Bryant has an unnatural stagnation, Wade has excellent explosiveness, O'Neal and Howard are powerful, Yao Ming, Nowitzki and Gasol are the best in static talent (height, reach), and James is strong in every physical condition.......

Stars always have one or a few physical talents that surpass other ordinary players, and Artest has an exceptionally strong body, which is barely qualified.

But in terms of two techniques, the beast is far behind.

Atai's mid-range shot is not very stable, and you can look at it when it's on time, but when you don't feel good, you can't throw it, and the breakthrough skills are even more miserable........

Do you have a collection of beasts that see the beast dribbling in disguise or using dexterity to turn past someone else's? Have you ever seen a beast with a skillful back-to-body skill, a hook or a big dream to score? Anyway, Totoro said that he had never seen it, and Artest's only reliance on scoring was to use his body to open a bloody path or to score by catching the ball in an empty position, and he could play like this when he was young, but Atai, who was getting older and degraded a step further, was a little unable to play.

In the end, in terms of ball sense and leadership temperament, I am afraid that no one thinks that the beast can have it, and fighting for the players does not represent the leadership temperament of a player, this is a basketball arena and not a boxing arena.........

Durant is thin and thin, but the height and arm span are placed there, even if Artest squeezes him out of the way, the schoolbag Du's raised hands can still affect the beast's shooting, and on the other hand, when Durant shoots, the beast has no way to stop it except for fouls, which is the gap in physical talent, and it is also the fundamental reason why Tiedu can finally become a superstar in the league but Artest is only a quasi-All-Star.

The beast shot three times in a row, but the Rockets were not opened up by the SuperSonics, because the Rockets' strong interior finally showed their power in this game, Yao Ming was in charge of the middle, Randolph and Totoro were in charge of one side, and the Rockets had an advantage in height and weight in almost every position, as long as the basketball was not bounced very far or very low, it was almost in the Rockets' bag.

Artest and Brooks missed a total of five shots, which was the only five they have conceded since the Rockets opened, but the combination of Little Giant + Rotten Tofu + Dragon grabbed a total of four frontcourt rebounds and rescored the lost bullets, which was a bit unbearable for the SuperSonics.

During the official timeout, Adelman didn't say a word, didn't set up a tactic or criticize the players, he just pressed the beast that was out of shape and a little out of the mood to the bench, replaced Battier and put Totoro back into the small forward position, and that's all he did in 60 seconds.

The corners of Totoro's mouth curled slightly, he didn't do anything, Artest was demoted to the bench by the coach because of his arrears IQ, black and hard, he was really a creature with developed limbs but a simple mind.

The old coach regards the Princeton system as more important than his own life, you actually hold the ball blindly on the court, there is no conduction and no running, the most important thing is that you miss the three shots, and the coach doesn't you.........

Now that the beast has stepped down, it's time for its turn to perform.

For Durant, especially Tie Du, who is in explosive form, Totoro said that he has no good way.

The jump shot is like being shot on the balcony on the second floor, and the most important thing is that after the first summer of hard work, Durant has not practiced this point with the ball, but the emergency stop jump shot is not accurate, and Totoro cannot completely limit Durant.

But when Yao Ming deliberately handed over the ball to Totoro, the situation of the Rockets' offense was completely different.

My Neighbor Totoro is so strong with the ball that the SuperSonics send someone over to wrap Totoro like they did against Artest, and then they find that the basketball is missing from Totoro's hands.

My Neighbor Totoro doesn't care that there is a huge gap between himself and Durant in scoring data, although this ordinary regular season game before the game was rendered as a matchup between the league's strongest first-year SF and the second-year strongest SF, but Totoro really doesn't care about his short-term backwardness in data.

The basketball was passed by him to the weak side of the unguarded, the superSonics players were refilled, and the Rockets players continued to rotate.

SuperSonics is undoubtedly a young team with full potential and no limits to youth.

But no matter how fast the young players are, they can't really run a running basketball.

After the Rockets players wore the ball from the bottom right corner and ran around the three-point line like dogs walking around the SuperSonics, Battier, who was ambushed in the left bottom corner, finally had a chance, and the president made a decisive move, and the three-point shot smashed into the front of the basket and missed.

Although the attack did not work, Adelman stood up from the bench and applauded the players on the field.

This is the basketball philosophy he wants to see, through constant interspersed running, through continuous sharing of the ball to create open opportunities, empty shots are something that every coach cannot blame, but not playing according to the tactics formulated by the coach is something that every coach cannot forgive.

However, Totoro, who jumped high, used an earth-shattering slap to tell the old handsome that you applauded a little too early this time.

Durant's height is a little taller than Totoro, and his arm span is a little longer than Totoro, but in terms of bounce power, Du Ke, who has a schoolbag with a vertical bounce of only 85cm, is not as powerful as Totoro who bounces 100cm in place.

First of all, the physical contact when the card was stuck, Durant and the small bamboo pole were a little out of balance by Totoro arching in the back, and as soon as the body contact was made in the air, Durant was even less of an opponent........

My Neighbor Totoro descended from the sky and pressed the bag from behind to pour the basketball into the basket, while Tie Du fell from the air to the ground because of stumbling.

"Boom!"

The air defense alarm sounded in the arena above the Toyota Center, and all the Rocket fans who came to the scene were stunned for a moment, and then tried their best to shout out the excitement in their hearts!
