NBA: The Talent Burst from the Start

The content of the conversation between the two naturally also expresses Lin Lei's influence on the entire NBA league and basketball around the world.

But in the same way, as soon as O'Neal and Barkley spoke, it also made other rookies in the team feel very uncomfortable!

Everyone is young, and they are arrogant. After more than 50 games, Lin Lei can occupy the front page headlines every day, but eclipsed other rookies.

Originally expected to show his face in this rookie game, but who would have thought that before the game started, Lin Lei would have been in the limelight, and he had even become a bargaining chip between the two sides.

"Half the team has to complete the exchange with Lin Lei, are we so worthless?"

As a result, many players were angry with Lin Lei, making him a public enemy even before he came.

Lin Lei guessed that he never dreamed that he would be shot while lying down.

So this rookie match, which seems to be a joy for the whole people, has actually become an undercurrent...

Although both Barkley and O'Neal are willing to compete for Lin Lei to play Lin Lei to join the O'Neal team, it has become a foregone conclusion.

No matter how unhappy Barkley was, he couldn't make changes.

So the All-Star rookie lineup of both sides was finally released.

Barkley: Irving, Griffin, Jeremy Lin, Rubio, Monroe, Kemba Walker, Brandon Knight, and Tristan Thompson, Wall, Morris

The O'Neal team is: Lin Lei, Cousins, Hayward, Paul George, Klay Thompson, Aaron Brooks, Leonard, and Turner, Kerr.

From the lineup point of view, the two sides seem to be evenly matched. After all, Irving, Griffin, Rubio and others have already made their names in the league.

On Lin Lei's side, apart from himself, Paul George, Leonard and Cousins ​​are still a little immature.

But the rookie game didn't pay much attention at first, it was just an addition before the All-Star Game, but thanks to the addition of Lin Lei, the rookie game instantly became full of focus.

A group of rookies also hoped to express themselves more in the public eye, so they came to the arena very early and began to practice together with other teammates.

The two sides first came to a confrontation. Due to the lack of Lin Lei's joining, the O'Neal team lacked the core of the team, and everyone was unconvinced.

As the future core of each team, the rookies believe that they are the focus of the entire team. Except for the first quarter, the next three quarters of the game have already entered garbage time, and the whole court is under pressure.

On the other hand, the Barkley team, these rookies were almost traded out because of Lin Lei, and they all had a fire in their hearts, so when they faced the O'Neal team, everyone played very united.

And Jeremy Lin and Rubio are good players in connecting the team, playing very well with other players.

When Lin Lei arrived at the scene, there were less than 5 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the score on the field also came to 98:54, and the O'Neal team trailed by 44 points!

"Yo, look who's here!||!"

I don't know who made a call first, and everyone on the court also turned their attention to the gate of the stadium, and immediately found Lin Lei's figure.

When seeing Lin Lei again, Owen, Griffin and others of the Barkley team were full of indifference.

"It's useless even if Lin Lei comes, the game is over!

Monroe was the first to utter a sarcasm.

Monroe averaged 15.4 points and 9.6 rebounds per game this season. Although his record is quite satisfactory, he is the future hope of the Pistons. For him, the team even let go of the former inside core, and it has been completely demolished and rebuilt. .

The Pistons have always been known for their iron-clad defense, but Monroe is a very bad player on defense. When Lin Lei switched to center, he happened to have a contest with the Pistons.

At that time, Lin Lei scored 48 points, 17 rebounds, and 6 blocks. It is no exaggeration to say that he completely destroyed the entire Pistons team by himself!

Because of this, the Pistons fully realized that this player seems to be unable to take on the heavy responsibility of the core of the inside line for the entire team. Recently, it has also had a considerable impact on the playing time and the team's utilization rate.

It stands to reason that Lin Lei let Monroe find his own shortcomings. Even if he does not dare to enter Lin Lei, he should concentrate on honing his defensive skills, so as to lay a solid foundation for becoming an All-Star center in the future.

However, Monroe didn't think so. He still didn't care about his defense. Instead, he thought that Lin Lei made himself look bad, so he put all the blame on Lin Lei.

In this rookie's first drill, because everyone did not cooperate before, they were fighting on their own, and they didn't focus too much on defense, so Monroe didn't need to work too hard on defense and focused on offense.

This is his favorite rhythm, so in less than a game, Monroe has scored 30 points and 13 rebounds, becoming the player with the most points in the game.

Because of his excellent performance in the training game, he also regained a bit of confidence, and even became proud again.

Only when facing Lin Lei did he speak wildly, almost mockingly.

Hearing Monroe's ridicule, Lin Lei just smiled: "...don't you forget that I scored 48 points on your head and blocked you 5 times, and you only scored 6 points?

Just this fluttering sentence made Monroe completely shut his mouth, his face flushed red, and he was speechless for a long time.

For him, that match was an outright humiliation.

But the court has always used the skills to speak, and when it comes to the court, Lin Lei can't beat Lin Lei.

Lin Lei's light words also made all the rookies at the scene shut their mouths instantly. For them, as long as they face Lin Lei, no player does not feel a headache.

It was a kind of comprehensive crushing from strength and spirituality, and there was no hope of a comeback at all.

This can be seen from the record of the Lakers this season. They have only lost two games in total, and in one of these two games, Lin Lei even scored 57 points, 13 rebounds, 9 assists, and 4 steals. data.

However, the performance of the other players was really poor. Kobe only hit 4 of his 18 shots, and Odom didn't need to mention it. He was fooling around in a nightclub the day before yesterday. The field even fell asleep directly.

The state of others was also extremely poor, and finally after two overtimes, the Lakers lost the game.

So in this case, based on statistics alone, Lin Lei is the No. 1 player in the league today, which is beyond doubt.

The reason why everyone ridiculed Lin Lei and even isolated him was because of their envy and hatred for him.

Seeing that the opponent's players kept their mouths shut, Lin Lei came to O'Neal and said.

"Mr. O'Neill is really sorry, I have something ahead of me, so I'm late!"

"It's okay!

Who knew that O'Neal didn't mean to be angry, but raised his big hand and patted Lin Lei's shoulder and said.

"Take it easy kid, the All-Star is a joyous moment, we should be happy, winning or losing doesn't matter at all!"
