I’m Really Playing Basketball

The 2005-2006 season was another painful season for Jay Williams, the head defender of Houston Mosaic.

Because Mosaic did not trade Francis this season.

Therefore, this season, he will continue to watch and hate Francis.

To be honest, the two of them really seemed to be delaying each other.

Therefore, for this season, Jay Williams feels that it may be another extremely wasted season.

Looking back at himself as one of the hottest prospects in the 2002 NBA draft, he was already very, very far behind among the most popular rookies in the 2002 class.

Among the four most popular rookies in the 2002 class, Yao Ming, Wade and Chen Xiao have all achieved real success in the NBA.

In his three seasons in the NBA, Chen Xiao has won two championships, one MVP, and two Finals MVPs, and has become the number one player in the NBA.

In the three seasons of Wade and Yao Ming, although they were not as successful as Chen Xiao, they were still in the best lineup and all-stars.

One of the two is now the fourth player in the NBA, and the other is a top 20 player in the NBA.

It can be said that Wade has secured his position as a superstar, and Yao Ming has also become a true NBA star player.

And him?

He was the player who competed with Wade and Yao Ming for the No. 1 pick, and was once the No. 1 player in the NCAA. After three seasons, in addition to improving his statistics, he has not even entered the playoffs once, let alone the All-Star or the best. Approved by the best lineup.

Perhaps, for him, the biggest gain in coming to the NBA is getting a beautiful wife and a lovely daughter.

Because of the motorcycle accident, he lost a junior brother and killed a Celtics deputy general manager. After sacrificing these two lives, he gained a happy family and became peaceful and productive. With a sense of responsibility, there is no waste of talent in the NBA like Francis.

Therefore, in the competition with Francis, he received the official support of Mosaic. Compared with being a child who has not grown up, he is indeed more suitable to take on the future of this team.

As a rookie in 2002, it only took three years to become the future and hope of a team. This is actually a very big achievement.

However, you need to look at who you are comparing yourself to.

If he wasn't a rookie in the 2002 class, if he wasn't one of the four major rookies in the 2002 class, he would be satisfied with this achievement, but...

Before the start of the 2005-2006 season, Jay Williams had been paying attention to Chen Xiao because he made a very, very brave decision when the whole world was shocked.

As the first player in the league, he actually went from a championship team to a rebuilding team full of rookies.

It made it seem like Jay Williams saw an opportunity, a chance to beat and catch him.

Therefore, after the new season's schedule was released, Jay Williams has been looking forward to the opening game between Mosaic and the Bobcats.

After entering the NBA, it may be embarrassing to say that he has never enjoyed a victory in front of Chen Xiao.

He has never enjoyed a victory in his career, including the NCAA.

On the brighter side, like O'Neal, he has never been better than Chen Xiao in his career.

But can this be said in a better way?

Of course not!

This is very embarrassing!

Therefore, after Chen Xiao made this brave but failed decision, he must seize this opportunity!

In this game with the Bobcats, he will try his best to win the game!

To be honest, the Houston Rockets are not a very strong team, but they have great hope of defeating a mere Bobcats team.

Now that Chen Xiao is in the Bobcats, it has given Jay Williams a lot of confidence.

And this kind of confidence is also the reason why Chinese fans are very worried about Chen Xiao this season.

Chen Xiao has been so successful in the past three seasons.

How many people have you offended?

Although Chen Xiao has a high emotional intelligence and basically has no enemies, who can't be jealous of Chen Xiao's achievements?

Even McGrady, Chen Xiao's good friend, wasn't he very jealous and said that to Chen Xiao?

To be honest, the challenge for Chen Xiao this season is huge.

Chen Xiao is very strong, but the Bobcats are too weak!

On the evening of November 1, 2005, the entire Charlotte Bobcats Arena was already packed.

In the home base of the NCAA, the Bobcats' first regular season game of this season was able to have such an attendance rate, really thanks to Chen Xiao, and also thanks to the arrogance of Bogut, Ha Shengzhen and others.

It is precisely because of their arrogance that this game is very popular in the United States and China.

In China, as long as it is Chen Xiao's competition, it must be full of enthusiasm.

Especially after Chen Xiao led the Cavaliers to win the championship last season, Chen Xiao's status in China was really too high.

Therefore, this season, CCTV once again broadcast Chen Xiao's 82 games with the Bobcats live.

As there are more and more Chinese players in the NBA, there are also more and more fans of other stars. Now not every NBA team with Chinese players can get a lot of live broadcast treatment.

After all, there are only one, two and five channels used by CCTV to broadcast the NBA live.

One and two of them are not live broadcast every day, they are only part-time.

Therefore, time is very limited, and CCTV can only broadcast 20 NBA games during the week due to its full schedule.

The NBA regular season lasts for less than 20 weeks in total. In other words, CCTV can only broadcast less than 400 regular season games in a season.

Chen Xiao occupied 82 games by himself. According to the contract between CCTV and the NBA, every game played by Chinese players must include a game involving non-Chinese players. In other words, to broadcast Chen Xiao's 82 games, CCTV would have to pay the cost of 164 games. .

For the rest, CCTV can only broadcast 200 other games live.

The heat between Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi.

pug grizzly

United's Jazz.

Piggy spurs.

These four teams will split the remaining 100 games.

Therefore, according to what Teacher Zhang told Chen Xiao, CCTV will not broadcast the entire Dayao game live this season.

There will only be more than 50 games between Dayao and the Heat broadcast live this season.

There are quite a lot of these events.

But it is definitely incomparable to the past. After all, from now on, Chinese fans must be able to bear not being able to see every game of Dayao.

Because there are more Chinese players in the NBA, because the Grizzlies where Bago plays have a big boss, and the Spurs where Xiaozhu plays are not weak, Yao became the one who was sacrificed.

After all, Chen Xiao cannot be sacrificed.

Even Dayao himself never thought that Chen Xiao would be sacrificed.

While the total number of CCTV live broadcasts remains unchanged, with the rise of UAE and others, Dayao's live broadcasts may become less and less in the future.

Back to the Bobcat and Mosaic game.

Because many NCAA fans in Charlotte wanted to see whether Chen Xiao would show off in this game and be beeped instead, they all came to the scene with expectations.

For Charlotte basketball fans, they really don't love the Bobcats at all.

The Bobcats led by Chris Cannon didn't attract any fans last season.

After all, why do Charlotte fans, who are accustomed to the world, look at you Bobcats with such poor results?

Let's look at North Carolina and Duke. Isn't he good?

Do you know how strong North Carolina's four young men were last season?

It can be said that the attendance rate of the Bobcats last season was really terrible. It was only 50% on average, which set a record in NBA history.

The Bobcats' worst record in history last season coupled with the worst attendance in history really gave league commissioner David Stern a headache.

But this season...

Looking at the huge crowds of people on the TV, David Stern showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"President, the Charlotte football market seems to have changed!"

The assistants next to him were also a little excited.

All David Stern's assistants know how eager David Stern is to break into the NCAA.

Charlotte is the capital of the NCAA, and it cannot be said to be an ordinary interior.

There is not a single day that David Stern doesn't want to make it in Charlotte.

Only if the NBA succeeds in Charlotte, can the NBA become the No. 1 basketball game in the United States.

Otherwise, the NBA will always be in second place, and it will only be the one that will be suspended on the day of the NCAA finals.

David Stern thought of many ways before, but they all failed in the end.

Even the Charlotte Hornets were forced to go to New Orleans, and this year there was a hurricane in New Orleans. The Hornets couldn't even stay in New Orleans and had to move to the Goose City.

It can be said that the Hornets are definitely the worst team in NBA history, and the Hornets' misery is due to their failure in Charlotte.

If the Hornets can gain a firm foothold in Charlotte, a fool will leave such a good place in this ball market.

Charlotte's basketball market is great, but it has nothing to do with the NBA.

And this time, forming the Bobcats in Charlotte, and getting Jordan back, is already the last card he can use.

What David Stern didn't expect was that the card he used this time actually played Wang Bo.

After Chen Xiao announced that he would join the Bobcats, Jordan actually announced that he would become the head coach of the Bobcats.

This is great.

Chen Xiao, the No. 1 player in the NBA, the killer of Duke, defeated nine Duke players in one NCAA game, and it is still a pain in Duke University’s heart forever. Even now, Duke has not left Chen Xiao’s shadow. come out.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Charlotte fans to ignore Chen Xiao, at least for Duke University fans.

David Stern is willing for Duke fans to go to the Bobcats to scold Chen Xiao every game.

Scolding is better than ignoring.

As long as they are willing to watch the Bobcats and watch Chen Xiao's games, they will be converted into Chen Xiao fans sooner or later.

After all, Chen Xiao is a magical boy. He is one of the most magical and attractive players in the NBA!

At the same time, Jordan announced that he will become the head coach of the Bobcats, which will also attract a large number of Jordan fans to return to the NBA. Being a head coach and being a general manager have completely different appeal to fans.

So, these two things that David Stern didn't expect have now caused this game to be such a beautiful spectacle.

NBA arenas are packed with fans, which is really nothing to other NBA teams.

But for the Bobcats, it's really a luxury.

Therefore, David Stern is really looking forward to the Bobcats bringing good news for him in Charlotte this season.

Under the loving eyes of David Stern, Chen Xiao on the court was smiling and saying hello to his good friend Jay Williams while listening to the boos from the Duke University fans. .

"Jay, welcome to Charlotte."

"Chen, I should be the one to say this. Charlotte, this is my kingdom."

Jay Williams pointed to the fans on the sidelines who cheered for him and booed Chen Xiao and said with a smile.

Chen Xiao was also a little embarrassed to hear that Jay Williams was so 'not giving face'.

To be honest, coming to Bobcat this time is really a challenge in all aspects.

When he was with the Nets and Cavaliers, he had never encountered such a scene.

I have to say that when he came to the Bobcats this time, he really started from scratch. Even the fans need his training from scratch.

"Wonder Boy will definitely feel embarrassed when he sees many fans cheering for Jay Williams. This is a scene he has never seen in his career, but this is Charlotte, this is the graveyard of NBA teams, and That's why I say he made the worst possible choice."

"If the Wonder Boy were not in Charlotte now, but in Los Angeles or New York, then he would be cheered and worshiped like a king!"

"But now, he is in such an imperial cemetery!"

On the sidelines, Barkley, the commentator of TNT for this game, was really heartbroken.

He was really heartbroken.

Originally, he expected Chen Xiao to catch up with and even surpass Jordan in terms of historical status.

But now, the opportunity has completely disappeared.

Barkley felt that since Chen Xiao had already surpassed him by winning the MVP of the regular season, since he had surpassed me, let's pass Jordan along the way.

In the NBA, there are completely different levels of players with regular season MVPs and without regular season MVPs.

With the regular season MVP, you are qualified to talk about historical status.

Pippen also wants to talk about his historical status with Barkley, but do you think Barkley likes him?

Only MVP, championship and FMVP are important.

Chen Xiao had the MVP of the regular season last season, so many people talked about his historical status in the NBA.

Barkley and many Chen Xiao fans in front of the TV were heartbroken when they saw the audience booing Chen Xiao. The Bobcats and Mosaic players completed their pre-match warm-ups.

At this time, the starting players of the two teams for this game were shown on TV.

For the home team Bobcats, the starting center for this game is Chen Xiao, the starting power forward is Randolph, the starting small forward is Barnes, the starting shooting guard is Monta Ellis, and the starting point guard is Chris Paul.

In yesterday's heads-up competition in the team, the runner-up was Monta Alice.

So the Bobcats rookie guard will get a one-week starting job.

On the court, Monta Alice was very excited.

As the second highest high school student in the United States, after entering the NBA, he finally got his chance to perform!

As the second highest high school student in the United States, Monta Ellis is as famous as Oden, and he is very famous in the United States.

But in China, he is really not famous.

For Chinese fans, they already know the NCAA, but they really don't know the high school league.

They really don't know which onion Monta Ellis is.

So Teacher Zhang and Xiao Su on the sidelines were popularizing Monta Ellis, but it would be okay if they didn't popularize the knowledge. Once they did, it would really make the Chinese fans even more uncomfortable.

"Isn't this just a child?!"

For Chinese fans, Monta Ellis is really a child. In China, isn't a high school student a child?

Anyway, you are a college student, and everyone can admit that you can already take responsibility.

Therefore, the more Chinese fans look at the Bobcats team, the more awkward they feel, it's so fucked up!

On the Houston Mosaic side, the starters for this game are Bogut, Juwan Howard, Ryan Bowen, Francis and Jay Williams.

To be honest, the Houston Mosaics are a two-star team rated by USA TODAY after all. Judging from the hard power of the team, this team is indeed not weak.

If the run-in is better, Samsung is also possible.

And this is why Bogut and He Shengzhen are so arrogant.

Ha Seung-jin, who was sitting off the field, looked at the ten players on the field with anticipation on his face.

As far as the strength comparison of the two teams is concerned, to be honest, the Houston Mosaic is a spike against the Bobcats!

Point guard, Jay Williams kills Chris Paul in seconds, no problem, right?

Shooting guard, Francis kills Monta Alice in seconds, no problem, right?

Even as a small forward, Ryan Bowen is also an NBA veteran for many years. Not to mention spikes, there is no problem with 50-50, right?

As for power forward, Juwan Howard is better than Zach Randolph, right?

It can be said that in other positions, Mosaic wins.

Even at the center position, Chen Xiaoqiang is strong, but when playing center, height is very important!

How tall is Bogut?

And how tall are you?

Under the trend of stronger mosaic, Chen Xiao's personal ability is of no use no matter how strong it is.

Therefore, even if Chen Xiao's statistics in this game will be very good, the victory will definitely belong to me. As long as I can win this game, then...

Ha Shengzhen has already thought about how the Korean media praised him after this game.

But at this moment, there was a sudden exclamation on the court!

He Shengzhen looked at the court and saw that Chen Xiao, who was 2.03 meters tall, actually beat Bogut, who was 2.13 meters tall, with a jump ball!

This is a difference of ten centimeters!

To be honest, it was quite surprising that Chen Xiao defeated Bogut with a jump ball.

While He Shengzhen on the sidelines was shocked and Van Gundy frowned, Chen Xiao had already started running away on the court!

Chen Xiao's jump ball is average, and he doesn't even have the awakening attribute, but this Bogut is too bulky!

He gained weight!

And gain a lot of weight!

Facing Chen Xiao's fast-break style of play after jumping the ball, Bogut has to chase, and he needs to chase like crazy!

I have to say that Bogut is fast, even if he gains weight, he is not slow.

Unexpectedly, after Paul pushed across half court and passed the ball to Chen Xiao, Bogut actually followed Chen Xiao.

Paul's current passing is not traditional enough.

So Teacher Zhang on the sidelines also felt regretful.

"If it were Xiao Zhan, Chen Xiao could already dunk!"

It’s just that Teacher Zhang finished regretfully!

On the court, Chen Xiao, who received Paul's not-so-timely pass, did something that shocked everyone!

Facing Bogut's defense at the basket, Chen Xiao didn't shoot as usual, but!

"Wonderboy wants to dunk!"

"And it's a buckle!"

To be honest, even Bogut was shocked by Chen Xiao's unusual decision.

His defense never thought that Chen Xiao would choose to dunk him, okay?

On the court, in the Bobcats' first attack, the 2.03-meter Chen Xiao jumped high and directly met the 2.13-meter Bogut in the air.

Look at the Bobcats' No. 11 flying in the air on the court.

That extremely stretched and explosive figure silenced almost all the spectators nearby.

This is a tomahawk chop!

This game was so exciting from the beginning, which is really incredible.

Even Barkley and Kenny Smith were a little stunned.

Can the Wonder Boy really dunk?

Wonder Boy has dunked like this before, right?

Can such a dunk be scored?

Bang!

When Chen Xiao rode on Bogut's waist and used his long arms to slam the basketball into the basket, James, Kobe, Carter in front of the TV and Jordan on the sidelines all widened their eyes!

This is a dunk that makes the NBA dunk kings widen their eyes.

"Shocking!"

"Wonderboy dunked Bogut!"

The silent arena was in an uproar for a moment!
