I’m Really Playing Basketball

On February 27, 2006, at America West Arena, players from the away Bobcats and the home Suns were warming up before the game.

At this time, Chinese viewers had already seen the starting lineups of the two teams in this game on CCTV.

For the Bobcats, the center is Bynum, the power forward is Zach Randolph, the small forward is Chen Xiao, the shooting guard is Barnes, and the point guard is Chris Paul.

As for the Suns, the center is O'Neal, the power forward is Rasheed, the small forward is Stoudemire, the shooting guard is Quentin Richardson, and the point guard is Barbosa.

Chen Xiao did not appear as the starting center in this game. Let him play center. Facing O'Neal, the defense really suffered.

Although Chen Xiao wanted to play center and compete with O'Neal.

However, let’s forget about direct offensive and defensive matchups.

At the same time, Lou Williams, who had been starting the previous week in this game, was taken out of the starting lineup.

Because this week's Bobcats heads-up runner-up is the small gun.

I have to say that Lou Williams is really a little unlucky. He won the runner-up in the heads-up last week, but he only had two games a week. The Bobcats had four days off in the middle. If someone else won the runner-up in the heads-up, he could start in at least three games. , he only has two starting opportunities.

And for Lou Williams, he just won two consecutive games in which he scored in double figures. Now he is working hard and has been removed from the starting lineup. This makes Lou Williams really unsatisfied.

However, this is the rule that Jordan made for the Bobcats. No matter how much Louis Williams wants to say, he can only accept it.

After all, Montalice, Blatche, Jack and Granger, who were the runners-up in singles before, were also willing to gamble and admit defeat.

However, I have to say that the rule that Joe's one-on-one runner-up automatically gets the first week of the week is really quite cruel.

This group of young players who wanted to get ahead were forced to involve crazily.

Let's put it this way, after this group of young Bobcats players were involved in the season and taught by Chen Xiaoqiaodan, everyone experienced a "three-year college entrance examination and five-year simulation" baptism.

Yes, and they are taught by famous teachers Chen Xiao and Qiaodan.

In this case, the one-on-one strength of the Bobcats group of young players can be seen with the naked eye.

This makes it more difficult for everyone to become the 1st runner-up.

However, from another point of view, everyone has a chance, and there will be no more opportunities for Granger to win the runner-up in a stable manner like before.

And everyone has a chance, and the involution will become bigger and bigger, and then the bigger the involution will be, the stronger everyone will be, and the stronger everyone will be, the bigger the involution will be, and then the cycle will repeat. You say, Boss Qiao did it. Isn’t this rule quite cruel?

Originally, it only needed 630 points to get 985, but now it needs 700 points to be corrected.

But in order to get ahead, these young players of the Bobcats really have to go crazy and get involved. After all, this is not a 985 opportunity. What they get involved is the opportunity to become NBA stars and earn tens of millions of dollars in annual salary!

The 985 chances are nothing in front of the starting position released by Jordan.

Therefore, although tired is a bit tired, everyone is happy.

Everyone gets something.

For example, Granger, even though he hasn't started for a long time, has become an important rotation member of the team. His playing time has been very stable, and he has become a favorite for the Rookie of the Year.

And people like Louis Williams, Monta Alice and Blatche Jack, etc., they also got the opportunity to show their faces in the limited starting opportunities.

Their talents have also been recognized by many people.

Many NBA teams are very interested in them.

This keeps them at least from worrying that they will lose their jobs in the NBA.

This is very rare for their draft pick.

Therefore, Chen Xiao respected Boss Qiao very much for being the head coach for the first time and promoting heads-up crazily in the team.

The head coach of the Bobcats has come up with a very incredible pattern in the Bobcats.

A model that is most suitable for most rookies and allows them to rise quickly in the shortest time.

However, although these rookie players of the Bobcats are getting better and better to the naked eye, Jordan did not play any rookie in this game.

Because the sun is very powerful.

For the Cavaliers last season, the Suns were a team they could play casually, but for this Bobcat, that's not the case.

The Bobcats don't have the same offensive capabilities and overall defense as the Cavaliers last season.

If there are too many rookies in the starting lineup, the Suns will be defeated.

The Suns' offense can't compare to last season's Cavaliers, but this team's offense is still among the top in the league.

After the two teams warmed up, the starting players from both sides appeared in the center of the court.

After the game started, the Bobcats' young center lost a jump ball to the Suns' starting small forward Stoudemire.

Bynum's physical talent is very good, and his athletic talent is especially outstanding among big centers.

But a big center is a big center after all.

Compared to a relatively lightweight insider like Stoudemire, he still has weaknesses.

In particular, Stoudemire is much more experienced than Bynum.

Therefore, after seeing Bynum being defeated by Stoudemire so easily, the Bobcats substitute center Gortat, the Polish hammer, who was sitting in front of the Bobcats bench, wanted to replace himself with Bynum, replacing Bynum and Stoudemire jump ball.

Let’s not talk about whether we can beat Stoudemire. At least we won’t lose so ugly.

Gortat was very unconvinced by Bynum.

But there is nothing you can do if you are not convinced. Who makes him the rookie that the team focuses on training?

And after the All-Star Weekend, Bynum, who won the slam dunk contest, is now very popular in the United States.

He has a high draft pick and high popularity. Although his strength is not very good now, he really can't compete with Bynum.

Besides, he is not an American.

Therefore, when the Bobcats need someone else to serve as center, Bynum is always the first one to think of him instead of him. This makes him uncomfortable and he can only accept it.

At this time, on the court, the Suns' Wade Barbosa Jr. had already begun to attack.

Compared with the Cavaliers last season, the Bobcats are far inferior to the Cavaliers in many places, but there is one place where the Bobcats are worse than the Cavaliers.

That's the speed and defense of the starting point guard, which is really top-notch.

When the Cavaliers were defending Barbosa last season, Wade was able to break through with his speed.

Every time he beats the Cavaliers, Barbossa can explode with joy.

But now, facing Xiaopao, it's not that easy.

The small cannon is fast, has a strong burst, and is good at defense. The key is that it does not suffer from strength.

Therefore, it may be difficult for Suns fans at the game to see Barbosa play with such speed against Chen Xiao's team.

At the same time, because Barbosa's passing ability is average, when his breakthrough is restricted and he can't break through and score the ball, he also has a big problem in organizing the offense.

In the Suns' first attack of the game, Barbosa was unable to get rid of Xiao Cannon's defense, nor was he able to create opportunities for his teammates, so he could only blame Stoudemire in the end.

It has to be said that the Suns' three inside line has problems when playing against the Cavaliers, but it is still really good against the Bobcats.

After Stoudemire received a pass from Barbosa, facing Chen Xiao, who was a head shorter than him, he took the ball and made a mid-range shot.

The shot was shot very resolutely and with confidence.

In history, Stoudemire was basically reimbursed for the season this season, but now, Stoudemire is still alive and kicking. In history, Stoudemire's reimbursement for this season can be said to have affected his entire career. His athletic ability has declined, and he has also missed a year. growth time.

But now, because he is not injured, Stoudemire is still growing.

Stoudemire's shooting percentage this season is very high, reaching an astonishing 58%. You must know that Stoudemire has a lot of mid-to-long-range shots!

This inside man who was not very good at shooting when he participated in the draft has actually developed a wave of very powerful shooting.

In history, Stoudemire who has practiced shooting is indeed very strong. Even if Duncan encountered such a Stoudemire in the playoffs, he was quite embarrassed by Stoudemire.

With such a strong athletic ability, he can run and jump, and he has such a strong shooting ability. Such an insider is really unstoppable. Even Duncan, no matter how strong his defense is, he is not a god.

Even Duncan couldn't stop Stoudemire, a great shooter, in the playoffs. How many players in the entire league can stop Stoudemire, a great shooter?

Of course not.

Therefore, Stoudemire, who has excelled in shooting this season, really has the feeling of killing everyone in the entire league.

Stoudemire's average per game this season has reached an astonishing 26.5 points per game, making him the Suns' highest scoring player this season.

Of course, historically, with Nash, Stoudemire averaged 26 points per game last season.

However, this sun does not have Nash after all, right?

To be able to reach such a height without Nash and become the main attack of the Suns this season, it can only be said that Stoudemire is still very hardworking and hardworking in the Suns.

After all, he and Chen Xiao have a ten-year agreement.

A swipe!

After receiving Barbosa's passing pass, Stoudemire pulled Chen Xiao's confident and calm shot into the net!

After the shot was made, Stoudemire exploded.

He applauded fiercely, his hands turned red, and then he pointed to the sky, as if his fate was up to him. People who didn't know thought he was shooting a Hollywood action movie, gearing up, venting the joy after the hit.

This is the current Stoudemire. He has so many celebrations that the head coach of the Suns, Gentry, called him "extreme passion".

Therefore, every time Stoudemire's passion can drive the enthusiasm of the Suns fans at the scene.

Of course, Stoudemire hit Chen Xiao on the Suns' first possession, which really boosted the Suns' morale.

After Stoudemire celebrated, all the Suns players on the court were applauding Stoudemire.

Especially O'Neal.

O'Neal couldn't wait to hug Stoudemire and kiss him fiercely.

I have to say that after Stoudemire's shooting success, O'Neal fell more and more in love with Stoudemire.

Although this kid is very ambitious, it doesn't suit him.

Stoudemire's excellent shooting and strong athletic ability can open up space for him under the basket, and can also help him defend in defense. Let alone defensive skills, being able to help defend in place is already enough for him Very good.

O'Neal is very happy to have such a teammate.

This is why he is still in peak condition.

Not only was he more focused after being stimulated by Chen Xiao.

At the same time, with Xiao Si by his side, he really wasn't that tired.

"Amar'e Stoudemire is provoking Wonder Boy!"

"Because Wonder Boy is now on a weak team and cannot beat the Suns' weak team, so Stoudemire is provoking Wonder Boy to his heart's content!"

"Amar'e Stoudemire and the Suns players want to take revenge for this season's sweep of the Wonder Boys!"

To be fair, the Sima Zhao intentions of these Suns players are really well known to everyone.

Anyone who is not a fool can see what these Suns players want to do.

To be honest, Chen Xiao is now the rising number one player in the league. Although it will take a few years in the Bobcats, Chen Xiao will definitely return to the top in the future.

In this case, there will be few chances of defeating Chen Xiao in the future.

If I don't abuse Chen Xiao more while Chen Xiao is still on a rubbish team, I'm afraid I won't have much chance in the future.

Especially for a strong opponent like Stoudemire who was drafted in the same year as Chen Xiao and had a ten-year contract.

"I'm going to beat this arrogant boy to tears in this game!"

After celebrating with his teammates, Stoudemire was still doing crazy celebrations that boosted the atmosphere of the audience.

Seeing Stoudemire like this, Chen Xiao, who was looking at Stoudemire's back in his own half, was piercing his eyes.

"Chen, are you okay?"

"fine."

Chen Xiao smiled and shook his head at Paul and said: "Wait a minute and pass the ball to me."

Originally, Chen Xiao was planning to hit O'Neal out of position in this game.

Now Chen Xiao feels that it doesn't seem to be so complicated.

To be honest, this guy O'Neal is pretty good in front of him this season.

But Xiao Si is a bit arrogant.

It can only be said that Xiao Si is arrogant for a reason.

When he met Duncan twice this season, he had a vague advantage.

Duncan can't guard Stoudemire now. In this case, Duncan and Stoudemire can only attack each other, and in terms of offense, Duncan is indeed not the best at it.

Therefore, Duncan is indeed better than Stoudemire in terms of influence on the game.

But in terms of the statistics between the two, Duncan is indeed not as good as Stoudemire.

Therefore, this season Stoudemire has already been called the league's No. 1 power forward.

Even Duncan has been suppressed this season. He is naturally not afraid of Chen Xiao as he is the invincible player in the league.

After all, unlike O'Neal, he has never suffered from Chen Xiao.

After the success of the offense, it is almost impossible to defend Stoudemire and defeat Stoudemire. The only way to defeat Stoudemire is to attack Stoudemire.

In fact, there are not that many forwards in the entire league who are capable of attacking Stoudemire now.

The small forward is too short, Stoudemire can interfere with his reach.

And the general offense of power forwards is not as good as Stoudemire.

Therefore, Stoudemire really has not suffered the hardships of life this season.

So much so that now he is so confident that he is somewhat arrogant.

Well, Stoudemire is also a player who gets mad easily.

As for Chen Xiao, he likes to repair these crazy players the most.

According to the logic of the system, if you are so talented and strong, you should contribute to basketball and protect the sport of basketball.

Now that you have gone astray, I will represent the system and basketball to pull you back from the astray and loosen the soil for you.

In the Bobcats' first attack, after pushing the ball through half court, Xiaopao did not call the pick-and-roll immediately, nor did he dribble the ball into the three-point line immediately. Instead, he waited for Chen Xiao to get into position.

Chen Xiao said that this offense should pass the ball to him, and Xiaopao of course wanted to pass the ball to Chen Xiao.

To be honest, Xiaopao was still puzzled when he saw that Chen Xiao did not hold the ball outside to beat Stoudemire in singles, but took Stoudemire to the basket and positioned himself.

The personal duel between Chen Xiao and Stoudemire is detrimental to Chen Xiao when it comes to the basket.

The main reason is that Chen Xiao's outside skills are stronger and easier to use outside.

Under the basket, Chen Xiao has limited space to display.

So let alone a small cannon, even the two TNT commentators Barkley and Kenny Smith on the sidelines were a little puzzled.

"Wonderboy is not a center in this game, nor is he an inside post. He does not have to force himself to attack at the basket. On the outside, although it is further away from the basket, the efficiency may be lower, but with the offensive skills of Wonderboy, he can attack at will. Stoudemire was killing indiscriminately, and now, Wonder Boy is asking for the ball under the basket, a little angry, not very wise!"

Kenny Smith felt that Chen Xiao went to the basket to beat Stoudemire out of anger.

At this time, on the court, the Suns players felt the same way.

Chen Xiao has always given people the impression that he is the kind of player who is easily fooled.

I was shot in the face by Stoudemire just now. If I don't return the favor twice, it really doesn't fit Chen Xiao's character.

On the basketball court, the most humiliating offensive method than shooting in the face is of course the attack under the basket.

For example, a dunk is a physical humiliation of the opponent.

For example, teasing the opponent with his feet under the basket is an intellectual humiliation of the opponent.

These are all extremely insulting ways.

However, the probability of these two methods occurring is still too low.

A game may not include a few dunks or moves around the basket that humiliate the opponent's IQ.

Therefore, seeing Chen Xiao pressing Stoudemire under the basket at this time, O'Neal next to him wanted to laugh.

"Does this kid think he's Olajuwon?"

Apart from Olajuwon, O'Neal really can't think of anyone else in the entire league who can double his opponent's return under the basket.

And just when O'Neal was laughing at Chen Xiao's offensive choice, with a smile on his face, Stoudemire next to him suddenly jumped up with a look of shock on his face.

Then soon, he saw a handsome figure turning around and dunking the basketball into the basket with one hand from the flying Stoudemire!

Bang!

Looking at Chen Xiao hanging on the basket with one hand, O'Neal's eyes widened as he came to help defend from the basket but failed because he was too sudden.

"This, these steps..."

In fact, not only Olajuwon, but even the Suns fans who were cheering crazily just now were shocked.

Chen Xiao's steps under the basket just now were so beautiful!

"Dream steps, these are the dream steps of Big Dream!"

Sure enough, he was a former teammate who loved Dameng. Kenny Smith next to him, like O'Neal who had been hurt by Dameng on the court, saw the shadow of Dameng in Chen Xiao's attack just now.

The shadow of a player No. 34 wearing a mosaic jersey appeared in front of their eyes.

2 to 2!

Seeing Chen Xiao casually come down from the basket, Stoudemire, who had been teased by Chen Xiao just now, opened his mouth wide and looked at Chen Xiao in disbelief.

Just now, his legs seemed to fly up without his control.

Is this magic?

Facing the shocked Xiao Si, Chen Xiao paused next to him. Soon, Xiao Si heard a familiar voice.

"I hope you can be stronger than the admiral in this game, otherwise..."

"I'll cry."

What? !

After Chen Xiao finished speaking, the entire scene, the entire audience in front of the TV, and even everyone paying attention to this game, like Stoudemire, felt as if their heads exploded with a bang!
