Chapter 92: The Champion Show Duel

What Yuan Shu didn't expect was that Webb, who had reached the pinnacle of the king, was most memorable when he was in the bullets, and the reason was simply because he had memories of playing with Juwan Howard there.

But when you think about it, this idea is actually quite reasonable. If it weren't for the Magic's insistence on sending Maddy's friend Mike Miller to the Grizzlies, Maddie wouldn't have insisted on asking the Magic to trade him out, which made the Rockets' MM combination.

It's a plot that everyone has.

"Happy basketball, I like it too." Yuan Shu couldn't help but be touched by Weber's emotions.

Back to the game itself, this game is very crucial for the Cavaliers. Although the Cavaliers have won 13 consecutive victories, and today's opponent, the Washington Wizards, is obviously inferior to the Heat, Lakers and other teams that the Cavaliers faced before, the record of 13 consecutive wins is a threshold for the Cavaliers.

Although he has been defeated and defeated in this position repeatedly, and even considered a curse by Cleveland fans, in the hearts of today's Cavaliers, they are very sure that this record will be broken by their own team today, on this court!

This season's Washington Wizards have entered a complete rebuilding phase, and in the post-Arenas era, the team has put the responsibility of rebuilding the team in the hands of sophomore John Wall.

The team is now completely under Wall's own world, all the players are playing with Wall, and the coach also allows Wall to be the team's commander on the field, and everything is up to Wall.

Although Wall was given enough free space to play, Wall's various statistics did not rise but fell compared to last season, the average points per game dropped from 16.4 points to 16.3 points, a decrease of 0.1 points, rebounds per game dropped from 4.6 to 4.5, also decreased by 0.1, and the assists dropped from 8.3 to 8.0, a decrease of 0.3, although the blocks increased from 0.5 last season to 0.9, but the steals also decreased from 1.8 to 1.4 per game last season.

Wall's stats accurately reflect the overall state of the Wizards, and the team's rotten mentality has made every player on the team listless and miserable.

However, for Wall, this game is still worth looking forward to, after all, although Wall played 16.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 8.3 assists and 1.8 steals last year, but in the end he lost to the second-round pick Yuan Shu and handed over the "best rookie" to others.

Therefore, Wall, who was a little unconvinced, was ready to play well in this game and challenge Yuan Shu's knights.

Before the start of the game, Scott was in the team's locker room, mobilizing his players, after all, whether he can win this game is directly related to whether he can leave his name in Cleveland's history as a coach.

The Cavaliers players are also gearing up and eager to try, and the current atmosphere of the team is very good, and everyone is on the same mind, which also makes Scott feel very satisfied.

Scott, who was staring at Yuan Shu, thought to himself, but he didn't expect that in less than two years, Yuan Shu would become the absolute core of the team, and rely on his affinity and influence to unify the team's locker room and become the spiritual pillar of the entire team.

Thinking of this, Scott remembered that when Yuan Shu first came to the Cleveland arena from Miami to report, he even regarded him as a staff member of the stadium. Scott couldn't help but smile, fortunately, he watched Yuan Shu's performance at the time and did not easily cut off the star who is now shining.

Before the start of the game, the two sides announced the starting list, and the Cavaliers' roster did not change, as before, the Washington Wizards' starting roster has changed greatly from last season.

The center forward is a 2.13-meter-tall comic center Javier - Selling Chicken, oh not selling chicken, it should be Javier McGee. McKie has played well this season, averaging 11.9 points, 8.8 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game, all career highs. It's just that sometimes the head is hot, the movements are uncontrollable, and some headaches. No, just before the game, McGee was digging his nose next to the referee and smearing it on the opponent under the referee's nose...

The power forward is started by Trevor Booker, who is also a sophomore player, and compared with Bracher, who started last year, Booker averaged 8.4 points and 6.5 rebounds per game at all. Booker is a qualified blue-collar player at best. However, what impressed Yuan Shu was the scene where Booker and himself participated in the game on the eve of the 10-year draft, but no one thought that the two who were still making trouble on the court back then would now have such a big gap in their performance on the court.

At the small forward position, Chris Singleton, who was selected by the Wizards with the 18th pick in the first round this season, started the game, and since the team is going to be bad, it is better to let more potential rookie players play more, which will help the team quickly improve its strength after rebuilding.

The scoring guard is none other than Nick Young, the outside nerve knife Nick Young, Nick Young continues to play the role of the second leader in the team this season, although he only averages 16.6 points per game, but fans watch Nick Young's game, it is easy to score, because the score of this guy is not evenly distributed around the average points per game, but it is possible to score 30 points in the previous game and 1 point in the next game, and the output is extremely unstable, which is considered the X element of the team.

The playmaking guard is naturally led by Wall, and there is no dispute.

The rebuilding Wizards had a 1-9 record in the first 10 games of the season, and after that, the team went on a three-game winning streak before losing to Howard's Orlando Magic in their last game.

In this game, the focus of everyone's attention is on the duel between the two top picks, Kyrie Irving and John Wall, but in fact, the most exciting should be the confrontation between Trevor Booker and Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu's grace back then, let his nose bleed in front of everyone, this account has not had time to be calculated, and now he has the opportunity to directly clash on the court, Booker is determined in his heart to make Yuan Shu look good.

"Whether you've scored 82 points or 27 rebounds, you're just a basketball player in my eyes, and I don't believe I can't kill you if I give it my all." Booker had already set himself goals for this game before the game.

"Yuan, let's see, I must make you look good in this game." Before the game began, Booker stood behind Yuan Shu and said viciously.

"Who is he?" Webb asked.

"I don't know." Yuan Shu didn't respond to Booker, and he didn't even bother to reply.

The game officially began, the Cavaliers got the ball, and after Irving held the ball, he didn't wait for the two teams to fall into position, and rushed directly to the Wizards penalty area with the ball, and hit the board with his left hand after dodging in the air under Wall's defense, scoring the first point for the Cavaliers!
