NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 108 Yellow...Chocolate (600 Monthly Pass Plus!)
The head coaches of both teams stood up at the same time.

Although the head coach of the Mosaic team "Refrigerator" Kevin McHale is not very good at coaching, his player career is extremely brilliant.

As a star of the Celtics and one of the top 50 superstars in NBA history, McHale saw Wang Zelin's play style in this game was very different from before, and he was keenly aware that the latter's strength had made a new breakthrough.

"Is this a new tactic that Terry Stotes gave the Blazers?"

For a while, McHale looked at the head coach of the Trail Blazers, full of envy and vigilance.

Envious of its ability to have such an outstanding big player!

Be wary of the vagaries of its offensive tactics!

……

For the Trail Blazers, Coach Terry was really frightened by Wang Zelin's two offenses.

When have I ever had such a tactical arrangement?

Why is this kid so open-minded all of a sudden?
But... it seems to be quite useful!
After picking his chin with his right thumb, coach Terry felt it necessary to continue to observe, given that the team was in the lead.

Maybe it will really work wonders!
……

"Wang, are you possessed by Jason Williams today?"

"Be careful of the urine test after the game!"

"It's okay, the urine test must be full of stimulants, there is no drop of urine."

Wang Zelin's two passes made his teammates shine. It seems that this guy really didn't talk nonsense before the game.

"Can the passing talent have a second development?"

This sentence once again surfaced in everyone's mind.

"Brothers, please call me Yellow Chocolate from now on!"

Faced with compliments from his teammates, Wang Zelin misappropriated Jason Williams' nickname without blushing.

"cut!"

+n
The Mosaic team attacked. This time it was Jeremy Lin who advanced with the ball from the backcourt, but it quickly became Harden after reaching the frontcourt.

Jeremy Lin moved quickly from the top of the arc to the bottom corner, and Batum defended himself again.

"An annoying guy."

Harden already knew the Trail Blazers' strategy.

But this is simply a conspiracy. As long as Harden wants to prove himself, he must first pass Batum's level.

In order to avoid unnecessary consumption, Harden called a pick-and-roll tactic.

Parsons puts up the high post and does a pick-and-roll with Harden, then Harden breaks into the paint and Parsons cuts in.

Aldridge on the inside was forced to choose 2 from 1, and he chose to continue to put pressure on Harden without hesitation.

Harden flicked his wrist, and the basketball quickly passed in front of Parsons who made an air cut.

Extremely confident leading with the ball!
Parsons took a step forward, caught the basketball just in time, and took three steps directly.

but……

As soon as the basketball was shot, it was covered by a yellow palm.

"Snapped!"

In the blink of an eye, Lillard suddenly picked up a rebound in the backcourt and led the Trail Blazers to launch a defensive counterattack.

As an offensive arrow, Lillard took the lead, ignoring Jeremy Lin, the defender next to him, and directly threw the ball high.

"boom!"

Another alley-oop.

Lillard assisted Batum, who followed him, to complete an alley-oop.

"Boom! Shakaraka!"

The Blazers contributed two wonderful lobs at the beginning of the game, as if they were trying to justify the name of "the city of lobs".

"I was actually covered?"

"Damn shit!"

Parsons looked at Wang Zelin with anger in his eyes.

"Dude, this is a no-fly zone, pay attention next time!"

After casually glancing at the famous "Gao Fu Shuai" in later generations, Wang Zelin bluntly said something.

作为11年选秀大会上次轮的38号秀，帕森斯能在巅峰期拿到16分5篮板4助攻1抢断的数据，这样的数据是挺不错的，不然也不可能骗到3年4600万的大合同。

You know, Harden's annual salary at the time was only about 1450 million.

However, this guy has only been at the peak for a few years and then quickly fell, and the reason why he is dubbed Gao Fushuai by the fans is entirely because he can still receive a contract salary of tens of millions without playing games.

The name "Gao Fu Shuai" is actually "Salary Thief!"

No team owner would like such a player.

Damn, is this guy looking down on me?

The Mosaic team attacked, Harden rotated the ball, the original intention was to make a transition casually, and finally returned to his own hands.

To avoid being said that the beating was too cancerous.

Unexpectedly, Parsons naturally took the initiative to hold the ball and attack the basket.

What's even more unexpected is that this guy didn't go to his opponent Aldridge, but Wang Zelin instead.

Isn't this the behavior of gourd baby?
As an NCAA college-born Parsons, his basic skills are very solid.

Knowing that he couldn't stand Wang Zelin, he quickly made a beautiful turn and passed Wang Zelin when he chose to face the frame and hit back.

After coming to the basket, for the sake of prudence, Parsons also chose a more stable layup instead of a dunk.

In his opinion, the goal is basically there.

It's a pity that the speed and stability in Parsons' mind are full of loopholes in Wang Zelin's view.

There is undoubtedly a huge difference between the top ten talents in the first round and the talents near the end of the second round.

The speed is not fast and the strength is not strong. There is only one end for Wang Zelin, and that is to drink Lafite and eat hot pot.

With another "snap", Wang Zelin succeeded in protecting the frame again and took off the rebound.

Wang Zelin turned his head and saw that Lillard had already run near the middle circle at some point. Seeing this, he did not hesitate to make a long pass. The basketball whizzed past the heads of the crowd and went straight to the Mosaic half.

Are you kidding me?
The pass is big!
Although Harden's passing ability has not reached the level of the later assist king, he also has 84, a proper passer in the league.

How vicious his vision is, he can see at a glance that Wang Zelin's ball has become stronger.

"See if you still pretend?"

Harden glanced at Wang Zelin, then at the basketball still in the air, and was fully prepared to watch a good show.

But is this really the case?
The strength of this ball is indeed too big, it has surpassed Lillard, but it is not far behind, and finally landed near the free throw line.

And what about Lillard?
Wang Zelin knew very well about his speed, it was impossible to make a mistake in this shot.

Sure enough, the ball just hit the ground and bounced quickly, and Lillard just flew from near the middle circle to the frontcourt.

Stretching out his hand, the basketball was firmly grasped in his hand, and then he didn't even need to dribble the ball, and strode directly into it.

"boom!"

Another dunk.

Lillard's one-arm gliding dunk gave the Blazers an 8-2 lead over the Mosaics by 6 points.

The most important thing is that the Blazers' 8 points were all completed by shooting.

Killing and killing one's heart, nothing more than that!

This buckle directly stopped the Mosaic team.

"Let me teach you what it means to lead people with the ball!"

Noticing the surprise in Harden's eyes, Wang Zelin couldn't help but sneered.

"Humph!"

Harden snorted, turned his head and walked to the bench.

The loss of morale cannot be recovered by a simple timeout.

Not everyone has the ability of chicken soup Rivers, at least the opposite Kelvin McHale does not have this ability.

The Blazers completely dominated the game on both the offensive and defensive ends. For a whole quarter, although Harden wanted to kill the enemy, he was ultimately unable to return.

The Trail Blazers were 33 to 17 in a single quarter, leading by 16 points and entering the second quarter.

Compared with the first match between the two teams, the Mosaic team collapsed faster and died more miserably in this battle.

In the first quarter, Lillard scored 1 points, Aldridge scored 11 points, Batum and his friend Matthews scored 8 points.

But the biggest hero has to be Wang Zelin.

5 points, 4 assists, 3 rebounds and 2 blocks, the statistics are suffocating.

On the Mosaic side, Harden made 7 of 4 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 10 points. It can be said that he carried the team forward with his own strength.

"Coach, what should we do next?"

Harden, who was extremely hesitant, pressed the last straw on coach Kevin McHale.

Through an excellent interview last year, McHale, who has little coaching experience, defeated Devin Casey and Lawrence Friend, obtained a formal offer from the Mosaic team management, and finally became the coach of the Mosaic team.

However, for such a hasty decision, both the media and local Houston fans have a lot of opposition.

According to the poll conducted by the Houston newspaper "Fantasy Dance" on McHale's coaching of the Mosaic team, a total of 57% of fans believe that McHale has not proved his coaching ability.

The fact is also true, McHale's player career is quite brilliant, but his coaching career is quite mediocre.

"Ask me what to do, how do I know what to do?"

"You can't let me play, can you?"

Of course, facing the question of being the star, McHale definitely couldn't answer that way, and he didn't want to lose the job yet.

"James, the team can only rely on you at this time. You are our best player. I believe that under your leadership, the team will have the hope of achieving a comeback."

McHale's words made Harden completely give up, and his face turned blue instantly.

Look, howling is not even chicken soup, what is this nonsense?
How can the team play well under such a head coach?
For a while, Harden's ambitions when he first came to Houston were hit hard.

No, I want a giant too!
Otherwise, I will never even try to win that number 36 once in my life.

……

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Trail Blazers lined up their own substitute lineup.

As for the Mosaic team, Harden will undoubtedly continue to play at this time.

The two sides fought fiercely for half a quarter, and it was the official timeout.

Harden led the bench to do everything, hit a 12:5 offensive climax, and the score became 38:29.

The Mosaic team is only 9 points behind.

"James, I told you a long time ago that you can do it. If you keep at it, the team will definitely win."

Seeing that the score was forced to within 10 points, McHale swept away his previous decadent mood, and his whole person seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood.

Let me see who dares to say that I don't know tactics.

At this time, handing the ball to the strongest player is not considered a tactic?

Just as McHale was immersed in his inner world, he didn't notice Harden, who was physically and mentally exhausted, looking at him with disgust and impatience in his eyes.

The timeout ended, the Trail Blazers put on the full lineup, Harden continued his unsolvable offense, and Batum couldn't guard him at all.

But in the face of the multiple blooming of the Trail Blazers, Harden is still alone.

Wang Zelin, Aldridge, and Lillard joined forces continuously and hit an 11:4 attack wave. The Blazers quickly expanded the point difference to 16 points again.

With 2 minutes left in the first half, McHale paused again, but this time everyone in the Mosaic team was silent, and the dignified atmosphere permeated the entire bench.

At halftime, the Blazers returned to the locker room with a 54-point lead at 41:13.

王泽林两节下来已经拿到了6分6助攻6篮板和2个盖帽，外加4个失误。

At this time, Wang Zelin was still immersed in the art of passing the ball and couldn't extricate himself, with 6 assists ranking first in the team.

"Good boy! Well done, tonight's victory will be ours."

The current situation is very good, coach Terry's passionate speech spread throughout the locker room.

Even if Wang Zelin didn't play according to the pre-match tactical arrangement on the court, Coach Terry didn't bother to take it to heart.

Victory can cover up all the shortcomings!

Instead, the teammates began to shift the focus to Wang Zelin's 6 assists.

"Wang, you may achieve a triple-double in this game!"

Lillard looked at Wang Zelin's data eagerly, his face full of envy.

Triple double!
In this era, its gold content is still frighteningly high, and it is still a data that can be encountered but not obtained.

"is it?"

After such a reminder, Wang Zelin suddenly realized that he was really not far away from his first triple-double in his career.

"30 rebounds in a single game!"

"A single-game triple-double is about to come!"

"My lord, what else can't you do?"

Hixon looked into Wang Zelin's eyes, as if looking at a god.

"Don't envy brother, it's just a legend!"

"By the way, please call me Yellow Chocolate from now on!"

Regarding Wang Zelin's stinky fart this time, the teammates did not refute it, and they were powerless to refute it.

Yellow chocolate?
Maybe that's really the case.
