The God of Basketball

Once upon a time, the Portland Trail Blazers were notorious representatives, honorably known as the prison team. Fraud, rape, shootings, just about every type of scandal can find a role model in the Blazers.

Little flying mouse Damon Stoudemire was suspected of possessing marijuana, and was even publicly tested by the TV station. Ruben Patterson, who is known as Kobe's Terminator, sexually harassed him. In addition, Rasheed Wallace and Bunch Wells formed the two major thorns that made the league's wing players and even referees panic.

Compared with these people, Zach Randolph and Darius Miles who are still in the team are simply younger brothers. At best, Miles doesn't train to drink alcohol everywhere, and Zach Randolph just occasionally goes to bars to hold memorial parties, speeds on the highway, and routinely goes to the police station for urine tests every summer.

The work content of the Portland uniform team in recent years is similar to that of the probation priest in the prison, and all they do are "decriminalization" work. This is why they want to get Li Zhen this summer: Rose Garden really needs a good player with a positive image, good character and learning.

Of course, the current Brandon Roy is also very good. He has changed the team's temperament to a certain extent. He is leading Portland's young talents to a new situation. The rush to catch up with the awards made him lose his momentum in October and November.

Time Warner broadcast the game live across California.

Fans are intrigued, and every California fan wants Bruce to have the upper hand in this straight-up conversation.

But it seems that the relationship between Bruce and Brandon is very close.

Their pre-match hug in front of no one else dulled the tabloid news this morning that Bruce Lee spent the night with Hilary Duff last night.

In fact, Roy and Li Zhen's mutual praise before the game was even more 'tiring'. Roy claims that Li Zhen is the most talented and gifted passer he has ever seen. He can see through the fog and pass the basketball to every open teammate. Li Zhen said that Brandon Roy is a phenomenon-level rookie, he is on the road to a superstar, and he will be Kobe Bryant's biggest rival in the future.

The mutual praise between each other dilutes the smell of gunpowder in the game.

But when the whistle of the game sounded, the two introverted but paranoid young people immediately put on a fighting stance.

After Andrew Bynum beat Aldridge on the jump ball, Li Chen took over the basketball and headed straight to the frontcourt. Portland's point guard Jack tried to block Li Zhen from outside the three-point line. The 22nd pick in the first round in 2005 has a mature and stable style of play, with a balanced offense and defense, and he can be regarded as a mid-range player in the NBA.

However, Balance has been unable to control Li Chen.

Luke Wharton just ran over to cover for Li Zhen, and Bruce's lightning pace had already cut into the paint area with the precision of a scalpel. When Li Zhen came face to face, Zach Randolph, who weighed nearly 300 pounds, took the initiative to dodge: This guy is known for being lazy in defense, but he didn't expect to be so lazy.

This gave Li Zhen a chance for an easy layup... Shua!

Li Zhen was stunned.

He was aiming for a close encounter with Randolph.

"If you break in again next time, I won't give you face." When returning to halftime, Randolph also put on a gesture of "let you go".

This made Li Zhen angry and funny, thinking in his heart: If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have signed it for you.

Looking back, Brandon Roy opened a single, and Maurice Evans tried his best to block him on the flank.

However, Roy only took a few tentative steps to wipe out Evans, and then made a quick stop jump shot: Roy's movements were solid and his technique was complete. Especially at the moment of the last shot, it is hard not to think of Kobe Bryant on the sidelines.

The director of Time Warner also cut the camera to Kobe on the sidelines at the right time, and Kobe kept nodding with his mouth pursed.

He quite approves of Roy, and he has no objection to the fact that the Portland media called Brandon Roy the Yellow Mamba.

If it weren't for Li Zhen's relationship, he would even express his appreciation in public.

Change sides and fight again, although Li Zhen really wants to break in and have a good touch with Zach Randolph to see if he has fallen recently.

But when Bynum graciously screened at the free-throw line and slid down like a fawn out of Randolph's grip, he couldn't help throwing the ball in. The little shark received the basketball, quickly jumped and dunked.

After the dunk, he still didn't forget to slap his chest with both hands, and then made a gesture of the overlord holding a tripod.

This caused the cheers of the fans in the audience.

Since Bynum repaired his relationship with Li Zhen, his performance has improved visibly to the naked eye.

The legendary Lakers center Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who was sitting in the VIP box, did not forget to say to Sir Bass: "When a potential center meets an excellent point guard, he will improve at a rapid rate. Give Andrew three years, and he will be in the Blues. With the assistance, he became the center of the league's TOP3 level."

three years?

Old Bath chewed this sentence carefully.

Swish!

Roy hit a difficult jumper again, and he easily killed Morris and Luke Walton's pincers like eating a hamburger. His offense is so natural.

"This guy matures like he's been in the NBA for a decade."

Jenny Buss couldn't help joking next to her father. She could tell that his father didn't seem to be in a good mood in recent days.

At this time, Jim Buss looked up at his much-loved daughter, Jenny, who was undoubtedly the most capable of his seven children. And she also has a close relationship with Phil Jackson, which plays a vital role in the future stability of the Lakers.

But, deep down, he didn't like Phil Jackson that much. He thought Jackson was too old for his still beautiful daughter. And: "So, Jackson is still chasing some equity in the team?"

"He hopes to serve the team better, which will give him a greater sense of belonging." Jenny is open about this matter: "We should let this famous head coach be bound to our team. In the car."

Jim Buss on the side was extremely opposed: "He is an ambitious man. When he was in Chicago, he urged the players to fight against the management. If he gets the equity, he will take our entire family off."

"Be confident, Jim. Do you think Phil Jackson has the ability to influence us? Don't you believe so much in your father's authority?" Jenny asked her brother back.

When the Bass family talked about these things semi-openly, other people in the box, including Kupchak, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and even Magic Johnson, all set their sights on the court. They didn't want to get involved. This is the emotional intelligence that adults should have.

The game on the court is still going on in an orderly manner.

Bruce's breakthrough ability and organizational talent are evident at a glance, and the Blazers' weak defense was cut into pieces by him. Bynum, Lamar Odom, and Walton all performed well under his instigation.

The team thus established a small lead.

"It seems like we haven't played the triangle offense for a while now." The magician tried to break the silence after the Bass family fell silent for a long time: "Bruce's organizational talent is still underestimated. He is not a system player, but a system player." player."

Hearing this, Jim Buss couldn't help saying sourly: "So...does it mean that we don't need a head coach in the future?"

"..."

The VIP box was silent again, and the atmosphere was quite awkward.

Every team's top executives have such intrigues, just like the workplace that competes with each other.

But these coming and going will not affect anything, because it is always the boss who controls the direction of the team's navigation. Analyzing it with the Chinese emperor's mentality, he is still looking forward to fighting in a ball below.

But Jeribas seemed a little distracted tonight, and he rubbed the space between his brows. Then standing up, he decided to go to the bathroom.

When he got up, Li Zhen, who played 6 minutes in the first quarter and scored 2 points and 5 assists, returned to the bench. His physical fitness is still an objective factor that restricts his playing time.

Judging from the performance in the first six minutes alone, Li Zhen is slightly better. Although Brandon has scored 9 points, 1 assist and 2 rebounds, he can get whatever he wants in the 2nd position. But ... the Blazers trailed by 3 points after all.

The game is still going on.

After Li Zhen left the field, Phil Jackson re-launched the triangle offensive posture.

But...without Kobe Bryant, the Lakers don't have a true one-on-one offense. So, nondescript.

Portland quickly seized the opportunity to overtake the score.

At the same time, Roy also began to switch his roles. He frequently instigated offensives and used his unpretentious assists to drive the team's overall offensive. Whether it's Aldridge, or Zach Randolph, or Webster, outlaw lunatic Outlaw.

Portland presents the grandeur of the Young Guards.
