Chapter 22: What's That Boy's Name?

"Jumping ball in the middle circle, we saw Heywood and ...... Oh, it's that newcomer, that number 24, and it's not Ilgoskas? ”

"Come on Kenny, can you stop playing with your ignorance." Barkley was full of disdain in the face of his partner's uneasiness: "Everyone knows that Ilgoskas has long been unable to jump, and unless he jumps with Nash or Nate Robinson, it is absolutely impossible to win." That rookie kid is also seven feet long, and the bounce should be okay, maybe he can win. ”

"Oh, sure enough, the rookie won the jump ball, and the first ball was the Cavaliers' possession."

"I'll just say it." Buckley said triumphantly, rejoicing that his prophecy had succeeded.

Damon Jones dribbled the ball to the front court, and then, as Barkley said, handed the ball to LeBron James without saying a word, which naturally caused a burst of cynicism from Barkley in the commentator's seat.

Others naturally pull away, and the first ball is handed over to the boss to play alone, which can be regarded as an unwritten rule in the NBA, generally speaking, the team's first ball is handled by the team boss.

James dribbled the ball a few times from the three-point line, and then carried Caron Butler directly to break inside.

The current LeBron has not yet mastered the back-to-back technique, and most of his offense is face-frame type, but there are fewer long-range shots, and more options are breakthroughs.

LeBron's breakthrough is not skill, nor speed, but crushing. That's right, it's like a moving steamroller, all the way to the restricted area. If you want to stop him, you have to have at least no weaker than him, and today, as LeBron is gradually maturing, it is really hard to find outside players who can stop him, and most of them can only hinder.

Caron Butler, who averaged 19.1 points and 7.4 rebounds per game last season, is also a good guy at the small forward position, but in terms of strength, he is too far from James, and there is no way to stop James' breakthrough.

crushed Caron Butler all the way into the three-second zone, seeing that Jamison was about to come over to wrap the clip, James immediately dribbled and made a three-step layup, Jamison's bag was a little slower, and Caron Butler couldn't do anything with James at this time, but unfortunately just at the beginning, James's hand was still very cold, and the layup bounced out on the basket.

Zhang Kong, who was let go by Jamison, easily won the rebound without hindrance, brushing off his first stats on the court. Jamison was shocked at first sight, because Zhang Kong was now under the basket, and it was completely empty, and even elementary school students could score the ball in this position.

In a panic, Jamison hurriedly rushed to the inside, and at the same time, center forward Heywood saw that Jamison had leaked, and hurriedly came up to block.

But...... Unexpectedly, Zhang Kong chose to pass the ball at this time. A ground-hitting pass, the basketball was handed to the empty Ilgoskas, and it was too late for Haywood to defend it, and Ilgoskas gently tossed his feet and threw the ball in with a soft touch.

"Oh, the Cavaliers didn't hit the first ball badly." Barkley, who saw the Cavaliers' first goal scored like this, was a little surprised, and then flipped through the information in his hand: "That rookie looks pretty good, let me look for it, oh, No. 24 empty Zhang, the name of this twister must be Chinese, sure enough, the nationality says Chani, let me see...... Show No. 30 in the second round, damn it, No. 60 in the second round! Make no mistake! ”

"Just look at the pass just now, this rookie is not only the second round of the 30th!" Barkley said dissatisfiedly: "Now the management of the alliance is still as unreliable as before!" ”

"Ha, maybe he has some other shortcomings, let's see." Kenny Smith laughed and snorted, Barkley could spout nonsense because the audience liked him to do it. But he couldn't.

At this time, on the other side of the ocean, countless fans who got up late at night to climb over the wall to watch the game were stunned when they heard those keywords, and then suddenly became excited.

"Well done." When he retreated, Ilgoskas came up and high-fived Zhang Kong to celebrate: "Actually, you can attack by yourself just now, don't worry, even if you lose a few, it's okay, just get it back on defense." ”

At Ilgoskas's age, to be honest, he doesn't care about any stats anymore, his basketball career is only in the last few years, he has made enough money, and now he just wants to enjoy basketball to the fullest. For Zhang Kong, a potential and polite potential center, he has a good feeling and wants to cultivate him.

In this regard, Zhang Kong just smiled and nodded to recognize it. But in his heart, he felt funny, Ilgoskas actually thought that he passed the ball because he did not have the confidence to attack. How did he know that Zhang Kong was not interested in attacking at all, and when he used to play NBA2K12, he would just score a double-double every time he played and would not attack, unless his teammates suddenly couldn't shoot.

If possible, his interest in five doubles is well above a hundred.

Back to it, just as the Cavaliers' first shot was given to LeBron James, the Wizards' first shot was also attacked by their boss, Agent Arenas No. 0.

Slightly different, though, Arenas is a point guard......

Arenas held the ball in front of Damon Jones' defense, pretending to move to the left, and then suddenly changed direction and quickly broke through along the right side, Damon Jones was experienced and was not deceived by Arenas's feints, but he barely kept up, but just in time to see Arenas suddenly jump up and shoot.

This is his strongest move, dribbling and pull-up jumpers. This move is basically all the scoring guards in the league, and even the vast majority of point guards and small forwards will have it, and many skilled power forwards can also master this trick.

But Arenas' dribbling pull-up jump shot is different from the average person. His dribbling-and-dribble pull-up jump shot is almost the best in the league, with realistic feints, fast bounces, high and unusually supple shots, strong upper body strength, and excellent balance in the air after taking off.

These characteristics make Arenas's simple jump shot a little incomprehensible. The only thing that can stop him is his own touch.

In fact, Arenas in his heyday is really inexplicable, because you have almost no way to defend him, you can only pray that he doesn't feel good today, and if he happens to have a bad hand today, then whoever defends it will be just his score bank.

What's more, while being a super scorer, he's also a good playmaker.

The speed of the shot made Damon Jones have no way to interfere at all, but in vain he stretched out his hand, Arenas has already thrown the basketball in his hand.

However, James didn't feel good in the opening game, and Arenas didn't seem to warm up yet, and although no one interfered, his shot was still deflected off the basket.

Zhang Kong stepped sideways, stuck Jamison, who wanted to grab the rebound in the front court, and then jumped lightly and accepted the rebound. Wanting to pass the ball, he found that there was no chance of a fast break, so he directly handed the ball to Damon Jones.

When it came to the frontcourt, Damon Jones still handed the ball to the James organization as usual, and then waited for an opportunity at the three-point line, it seems that no matter which point guard the Cavaliers are, this is their job, and the only exception may be Mo Williams, who will transfer to the Cavaliers in the future.

Once this guy hits the hot head, all that is left in his eyes is the basket.

James received the ball, and this time he didn't choose to break through on his own, but handed the ball to Ilgoskas, who was already stuck on the inside.

Ilgoskas received the ball, carried Heywood behind him and bumped it twice, then turned and jumped.

In other words, who said that the turnaround jumper is Yao Ming's patent, and Ilgoskas is also a turnaround jumper in 80% of his offensive options......

When Ilgoskas shot, he was interfered with by Heywood's outstretched hand, the ball was a little off, the ball was still in the air, Zhang Kong looked at the arc of the ball and knew that the ball could not go in, and directly stuck Jamison behind him, sure enough, the basketball pop-up frame was out of the way, Zhang Kong once again easily accepted the rebound, the basket in front of him, there was no one around, Jamison was still stuck behind him and couldn't move, Zhang Kong thought that the ball would not attack anymore, so he jumped lightly, and put the ball into the basket with a layup.

This is a pain for Charles Barkley, just saw Zhang Kong holding the ball in that position, he almost thought that Zhang Kong would come to a strong dunk, just half of the weather, but saw Zhang Kong end the battle with such a fluttering layup. This feeling is like your wife wearing a transparent lace nurse outfit to play sex games with you, making you angry, taking off your pants and telling you that her aunt is here, and there is no way to do it today......

Completely suffocated!

Barkley's black face turned red, and he spoke half-loudly: "It's all like this, it's all like this, you're all like this, damn international players are like this!" Slam dunk, slam dunk, don't you know that the beauty of basketball lies in violence, and the beauty of violence lies in slam dunk! Give me a fucking slam dunk! ”

Sir Charles, who was teased, was completely berserk at the moment.

"Eggs, eggs, Sir Charles, eggs, this is in front of the whole American audience." Kenny Smith's snickering and seeing Charles Barkley deflated was one of the few pleasures he had in the rest of his life.

PS. Is there any god who can help you check the list of NBA players and head coaches in '07, and it would be better if there were league management and referees. The otaku weeps and begs, this chapter is for you.
