Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Raptor, the Thunder Beast
Reggie Evans, an official 2.03-meter-tall short interior player who may actually be shorter, is a complete interior coolie player who was born out of the draft, and judging by the above, Evans is too likely to gain a foothold in the league. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
But with the adversity of his growing up, Evans' strength, brutalist style and strong rebounding ability have earned him a place in the league.
After Bosh left the Raptors and Banjani was righted, the Raptors traded Reggie Evans from the 76ers with Jason Capo, the "three-point king", to assist the Italian top pick.
Evans has almost no jumping ability, and his career-high block per game stat is only 0.2, but he doesn't need to bounce at all to grab rebounds, and he can easily pick up rebounds by relying on his strong strength to jam opponents competing for rebounds with him. Although Evans' best career rebounding average in the first 9 years was only 9.6, Evans' playing time that season was only the most average of 23.8 minutes per game in the previous 9 years, and Evans' average rebounding rate per game ranked first in the league that season! He is the only alternative player in the league other than Dennis Rodman who has scored 0 points and 20 rebounds!
When Yuan Shu stood on the court, his ears were filled with the cheers and cheers of the enthusiastic Raptors fans.
At the start of the game, Vallejo fought for the ball with Baniani's jump ball, and the Cavaliers had their first offensive opportunity, and Mo Williams took advantage of Vallejo's clean mid-range shot to score two points.
The Raptors' Kreza's offensive shot was deflected by Jamison's interference, and the very confident Yuan Shu immediately stuck Evans behind him and took the backcourt rebound into his arms!
Although it was the first confrontation with Evans, and Yuan Shu stuck the opponent behind him in advance, but in the process of confrontation, Yuan Shu, who only relied on his own attributes to fight against Evans, almost lost the rebounding position because of the opponent's push behind him.
"Sure enough, it's a rebounding beast, it's really not easy!" Yuan Shu rubbed his waist that was supported by Evans's iron elbow just now, fortunately he was still young!
The players of the Cavaliers were really suffocated, and Jamison did not hesitate outside the three-point line after receiving the ball, and directly pulled out his hand, and the ball hit a clean hollow shot. The Cavaliers opened the game with a 5-0 run!
When Jamison excitedly raised his shooting arm after scoring a goal, Scott, the Cavaliers coach on the sidelines, seemed to have entered the excitement in advance!
"Hey, boys, let's run~~~!" Scott shook his hand as he shouted at Anthony Parker, who was a little slower to step back.
DeRozan, a second-year player for the Raptors, was in his prime at the moment, and after being righted by the team, he was eager to make a difference, and after receiving the ball, he ignored Calder's wave of the ball and singled out Parker with the ball.
DeRozan's first step was fast, young and physical, and he threw off Parker, who was mediocre, and used his explosiveness to go straight to the basket.
Vallejo, who was guarding the basket, faced DeRozan's breakthrough and jumped in the air to try to envelop DeRozan's layup in his defensive range, but DeRozan went directly around one side of the basket to the other, and at the same time changed hands in the air, handed the ball to his left hand, and prepared to dunk directly with a backhand! If this goal can be scored, it will definitely enter the top ten goals of the day!
When DeRozan dunked the ball to the basket with his left hand, in an instant DeRozan's ball was completely exposed to his protection, and Yuan Shu, who was originally fighting with Evans under the basket, immediately turned around and put the ball under the hat cleanly!
Yuan Shu didn't expect that he would be able to cap this goal, but he just thought that he couldn't score such a morale-boosting goal for DeRozan, so he blocked it with the idea of blocking this attack rather than fouling, but Yuan Shu forgot that after he was promoted to level 10, his bounce attribute suddenly increased by 10 points, and the speed and height of the jump reaction were almost 5 levels higher than before! Of course, coupled with some luck, Yuan Shu actually managed to press DeRozan's backcheck in the air!
Yuan Shu, who was waiting for DeRozan in a big hat, just breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt shocked that he had been stuck behind Evans!
Evans picked up the ball that was dropped by Yuan Shu's hat and wiped the board directly under the basket, Yuan Shu wanted to jump up the block, but the opponent's ass stuck himself behind him, and Yuan Shu, who was unstable, couldn't jump up at all, although he raised his arms high, he still couldn't stop Evans from making up for the ball.
"Damn!" Yuan Shu looked at Evans, who glanced at him with disdain after scoring the goal, and scolded in his heart.
Evans deserves to have two brushes, and in the next time he competed with Yuan Shu for rebounds, he actually pushed Yuan Shu away with his strength, grabbed the rebounds in the front court under the basket twice in a row, and the last time not only made up for the ball, but also caused Yuan Shu's foul!
Yuan Shu gasped for breath, feeling a little apprehensive, because in the battle with Evans just now, Yuan Shu had used the "Thunder Beast Rebound" twice in a row, but he didn't grab the opponent.
In the interval between Evans' free throws, Scott replaced Yuan Shu with JJ Hickson.
"Day!" Yuan Shu sat down on the bench, feeling a little angry, he didn't expect that when the skill met the master, the power would be completely unable to be exerted!
However, Yuan Shu, who sat on the sidelines and calmed down for a while, quickly figured out that the "Thunder Beast Rebound" he used was Evans' own stunt, and every time Evans grabbed the board, it was equivalent to using the "Thunder Beast Rebound", and of course he had no advantage in using this skill!
Yuan Shu, who understood, silently sat on the sidelines to recover his strength, watching Evans once again grab the rebound in the front court and then split the ball, Baniani hit a three-pointer, and the cheers of the fans at the aviation center immediately exploded, and the Raptors had overtaken the score with this goal.
Yuan Shu looked at the purple epic item "Raging Magnesium Powder (1/3)" that could only be used for the last time in his pendant space, which was originally intended to be used in the next game against the Celtics, but now he had no choice but to do so, because his "Thunder Beast Rebounding" skill was completely useless in front of Evans!
Yuan Shu, who was sitting on the court, watched the rest of the game in the first quarter, and watched the game on the court off the court, Yuan Shu's feeling was more objective, for Yuan Shu, who has good observation and thinking skills, when he saw how Evans dealt with JJ Hickson, he also had a new understanding of grabbing rebounds!
At the end of the first quarter, the Raptors, who were fighting at home, ended the first quarter with a 31-27 lead, and Evans played the whole quarter in the first quarter and grabbed 8 rebounds in a single quarter! In addition, I got 4 points! It was the absolute hero of the Raptors from falling behind in the opening to overtaking in the first quarter!
"Ginger is still old and spicy!" Yuan Shu has to admit that his current rebounding ability is indeed inferior to the Raptors' rebounding monster, but his ability is not as good as home, and it is difficult to say who will control the next rebounding! A confident smile appeared on Yuan Shu's lips.
After 3 minutes in the second quarter, the two sides sent the main players back to the court again, and Yuan Shu before going to the court took out the "furious magnesium powder" and sprinkled it in the air, accompanied by the boos of the Raptors fans, and appeared again!
