I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 542 I Can't Wait!

Looking at the turbulent reporters in front of him, with a small schoolbag on his back, Durant, who seemed to be a super good boy, and Curry who jumped around him, the excitement that lingered after the game was still in his eyes .

As rookies, Durant and Curry performed very well tonight. Durant made 10 of 21 free throws, 7 of 7 free throws, and 2 of 5 three-pointers. He scored 29 points in the game.

Curry, on the other hand, made 5 of 10 and 2 of 3 three-pointers. He scored 14 points and 7 assists in the game.

It can be said that judging from the data of the two, compared with their picks, this data is particularly excellent.

And anyone who watched the game can feel that the content of the two people in the game is more surprising than their data.

Let's just talk about Durant. Most of his scores are not fast breaks or other ordinary steals that have no impact on the game or the opponent's psychology.

Most of the points Durant scored in the game were very influential and difficult singles.

In a game, there are always easy scoring and difficult scoring. There are really many people in the NBA who are responsible for easy scoring. Many role players are competent, but there are not many players responsible for difficult scoring.

As for Durant, as long as he watched his game, he would know that he is such a player. This is a player who can be seen as a superstar at a glance.

As long as he grows fast enough and tall enough, the future is definitely possible.

And Curry next to him, although not as amazing as Durant, but Curry's influence on the game all day is no less, or even greater.

If Durant's singles in this game is isolated, then Curry's influence on the game is to coordinate the entire Bucks. Let's just say that his 7 assists do not mean that he is on the court. The impact of the team's offense, his smart running and ball handling, and his quick three-pointers that are very similar to Ray Allen.

Curry really made people feel the feeling and temperament of Ray Allen at the peak.

In this game, Durant made people feel Chen Xiao's temperament.

Curry makes people feel the temperament of Ray Allen.

Then Durant and Curry's rookie pair are the 'bankrupt version' of Chen Xiao + Ray Allen!

Now the two of them are bankrupt, but what about the future?

Even if the two can finally grow into a 'weakened version' of Chen Xiao + Lei Allen, that would be an extremely terrifying combination.

If the two can grow and evolve into the 'full version' of Chen Xiao + Lei Allen, then this is definitely one of the strongest duo combinations in history.

It can be called an invincible level.

Therefore, after the game between the Bucks and the Bobcats, anyone who is not blind has seen the bright future of the Bucks, as well as the bright future of Durant and Curry.

"Kevin, this is your first regular season game in the NBA, but against Granger, you played at a very high level, today you scored 29 points, while Granger only scored 8 points, we all know , Granger is an elite player in the NBA, what kind of player do you think you are in the NBA now?"

"Kevin, congratulations. As a rookie, you performed very well tonight. Barkley said in the game that you played the most amazing rookie performance tonight since Wonder Boy. Barkley said that he hadn't seen it for a long time. What's your opinion on the kind of rookie whose data can't reflect the strength and performance?"

"Kevin, we noticed, you said before the start of the season, you are eager to be the best rookie of the season, you are tired of being the second child, do you think you can compete with Oden for the best rookie of the season, Do you feel like you’re ahead?”

"Stephen, in this game we found that your shot feeling is a little different from that of the NCAA. Are you learning from Ray Allen to shoot fast shots?"

"This game against one of the best point guards in the NBA, Chris Paul, you played very well. You had 7 assists in this game, but no turnovers. This is an incredible milestone for a rookie in the NBA. , have you realized what kind of team you are now and what kind of role you are in it? Do you think you are one of the best rookies in this class?"

"Kevin..."

"Kevin..."

"Stephen..."

There is no doubt that after the game, Durant and Curry were on fire.

For the fresh American media, these two freshly baked meats will bring them a steady stream of traffic and topics.

Faced with this kind of pursuit, to be honest, not to mention Curry, who has always escaped, even Durant, who is now pretending to be an honest kid, almost tore off the disguise on his body, and then put his hands on his hips, and directed at these people haha He laughed and said: "Of course I am the best rookie in this class, how can other cats and dogs compare to me!"

Of course, Xiao Du didn't say that at this time.

After all, you still have to create a character for yourself now, and it’s not time to break the pot yet.

Now Xiao Du still wants to be a perfect idol.

"I don't care if the rookie of the year is me or Greg because I know we're not the best players in the NBA and I've seen tonight what the best players in the NBA look like and I think Greg is like me and we Our pursuit is not the so-called best rookie, we all have higher goals."

After Durant finished speaking, Xiao Ku next to him also smiled and echoed: "Yes, we have higher goals!"

Facing Durant and Curry, who were still popular after losing the game, on the other side, Chen Xiao, who won the game and scored 60 points, although there were many reporters, the questions were not so turbulent, and the reporters also Not so enthusiastic.

Mainly, for Chen Xiao, isn't it just 60 points?

Although this was considered a high score for Chen Xiao, it definitely wouldn't make them so excited.

After all, Chen Xiao is a player who averaged 44 points per game.

If you get this score in the finals, it may be different in the playoffs, but in the regular season, this is really nothing.

At the very least, it is nothing to Chen Xiao.

Therefore, at Chen Xiao's post-match press conference, most of the reporters on the scene also asked questions about Durant and Curry.

"I think your hunch is correct. Whether it's Kevin or Stephen, they are very special players. Before they entered the NBA, I already regarded them as huge opponents."

"Even now, I think Kevin is already one of the best players in the NBA. He even has a certain level of power that can change the current pattern of the NBA."

"Chen, do you think Kevin can average more than 25 points per game in the NBA this season? Or average more than 27 points per game like your rookie season?"

"I think he has such ability. The specific data depends on his number of shots and tactical status in the Bucks. You also saw in this game that he and Curry have a very high tactical status in the Bucks. The Bucks The Deer are focusing on training him and Curry this season, so his shots will not be less."

"I know that taking more shots doesn't mean scoring more, but this is for ordinary players. For players like Durant and Curry, give them enough ball rights and shot rights, and they will bring you surprise."

In this game against the Bucks, the performance of Curry and Durant really brought Chen Xiao a huge surprise.

Let Chen Xiao feel that they are more intuitive than the system's evaluation of them.

Seeing that Chen Xiao admired Durant and Curry so much, the current reporter, who originally wanted to find something to do, was quite disappointed.

"Chen, are you looking forward to the growth of Kevin and Stephen so much?"

So are you looking forward to their growth?

Even if they grow up to become your worst enemy?

Looking at the question from the USA Today reporter below, Chen Xiao showed a smile on his face.

“It’s not about looking forward to it, it’s about being impatient!”

After hearing what Chen Xiao said, the American reporters at the scene suddenly became noisy from being quiet.

Because these people can see that Chen Xiao really said this from the bottom of his heart.

To them, Chen Xiao, the number one player in the league, is really quite unique.

In the past, they had seen many people who wished well for themselves, but they really didn't expect that Chen Xiao would wish well for their opponents like this.

However, these people obviously don't understand how it is possible to have so much fun being the king of a group of monkeys?

Although the Monkey King also has super super powerful ones.

The opening game between the Bobcats and Bucks is over, but public opinion continues to ferment after the opening game.

The two biggest public opinions are Chen Xiao's words of "can't wait" and the "strength show" of the major NBA rookies in 2007 led by Durant and Curry.

Obviously, after Durant and Curry's debut, everyone is looking at Oden's debut with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

After Oden entered the NBA this season, he has not played in the summer league or preseason games and has been recuperating. Although his body has fully recovered, the Cavaliers are still very careful.

In the game between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the New York Knicks, Oden played 32 minutes in the game, making 8 of 12 shots and 8 of 12 free throws. He scored 24 points, 12 rebounds and 4 blocks in the game. .

This first show is simply a heavenly show.

I have to say that the New York Knicks are really a team suitable for a rookie's debut. Their defense is not very good, and center Curry is even more limp. For Oden, the Knicks' inside line is simply worse than an automatic withdrawal. Machine is even easier.

And Oden's influence on the court in this game is actually more interesting than the data.

In this game, James made 13 of 28 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, and 16 of 22 free throws, scoring 45 points.

If it's just 45 points, it's actually nothing.

The key is what these 45 points represent.

Xiao Zhan's three-point shot in this game was very good. You know, the Xiao Zhan now is different from the Xiao Zhan in history. When Xiao Zhan shot in history, his teammates basically let it go, but now, Xiao Zhan James' shooting space is not that big.

In this game, Oden really blocked a lot of opportunities for James from the outside.

Although Chandler is also good at pick-and-rolls, Chandler's pick-and-roll is actually very powerful after the pick-and-roll. In real blocking, Oden's effect is much greater.

After all, body size is not of the same magnitude.

In addition, Oden is constantly messing around at the basket. The Knicks' interior defense is not strong to begin with. When Oden messes up, almost all of them are James' breakthrough opportunities.

In this game, James used Oden's containment at the basket to drive the Knicks crazy.

To be honest, Xiao Zhan made 22 free throws in this game. He is really not a godfather. Even those who watched the game felt that Xiao Zhan could even get 30 free throws in this game. It's miserable enough.

This game between the Cavaliers and the Knicks really made people feel the perfect match between the two emperors.

Therefore, after Durant Curry was stunning in the last game against the Bobcats, Oden also had a very amazing debut.

It can be said that if we insist on the quality of his debut, although the Knicks opponent is very weak, Oden does feel better.

For a time, the competition between Durant and Oden for the Rookie of the Year became fierce.

By the way, Conley, the No. 4 pick of the Cavaliers, scored 7 of 13 in this game, with 14 points and 7 assists. He also performed very well. Although he is not as influential as Curry, he is very solid.

Therefore, among the top six rookies in this draft, Durant and Oden had a god-level debut, while Curry was a super-excellent level and Conley was an excellent level.

Compared with these four excellent and above, the other two hot rookies, Noah and Horford, also performed well. Horford scored 3 of 4, 9 points and 10 rebounds. Because of the foul crisis, he only played 22 minutes, almost two Double.

Noah, on the other hand, made 2 of 5, scored 6 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks. His defensive influence was very good, and his all-around performance was also very good.

For a time, the rookies of the 2007 golden generation seemed to be growing up as Chen Xiao expected.

Chen Xiao's words about "can't wait" and the situation of the rookie class of 2007 really have a feeling of complementing each other.

However, after a few days, things like this became slightly different.

After the opening game against the Bucks, the Bobcats took two days off and will face another strong rival in the East, the Miami Heat, on November 2.

It's another super strong team, and it's also the Bobcats' biggest sufferer in the NBA.

Let's put it this way, against the Heat, Chen Xiao's number of wins in his career is quite limited.

Of course, the result of this game was disastrous, losing to the Heat 90-98 away from home.

In this game, Chen Xiao played very hard, but the Heat's defense was really not comparable to those of the Bucks' rookies.

And in this away game, Chen Xiao's touch was average.

The two teams played a very hot-paced defensive battle, and eventually lost to the Heat in the Heat's rhythm.

"I can't wait!"

This sentence is very domineering.

And after this match against the Heat, many people seemed to have seen it, and Chen Xiao was far more than the one who wanted to stand on the top of the mountain and wait for the challenge from later generations.

And this is the NBA now!
