NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 292 First Victory: Warcraft is a thing of the past!

back.

The Trail Blazers Lillard scored a three-pointer.

Give it back!

Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball in the backcourt unhurriedly and leaned back close to the three-point line, and Harden suddenly became active.

Matthews didn't expect Harden to be so active. Isn't this guy's task just to get the ball?
But his reaction was still timely enough, and he immediately turned and ran towards Harden...

Then the next second, Mosaic power forward Asik stood in front of him blankly.

Matthews was blocked by Asik, and Harden, who was in position outside the three-point line, directly pulled out the ball after receiving the ball, very decisive!

It can be seen that this is Harden's off-the-ball running tactic on the offensive end. Mosaic caught the Blazers by surprise, but next time, they will not be so lucky.

Harden took it easy, Asik's pick-and-roll quality was so good, and Matthews couldn't make it through the screen.

Harden didn't waste this precious opportunity, he went up and down, and hit the net with a three-pointer!Cheers erupted at the Houston Toyota Center!
"The goal is scored, James' fourth three-pointer tonight, his touch is too hot! He is definitely one of the shooting guards with the best potential in the league!"

"Old Cat" Mobley praised the bearded man, but not everyone can carry the team forward when the team is in trouble like Harden.

There is no doubt that Harden used two key three-pointers to bite the score difference, and he did it!

"My mine!"

Matthews raised his hand and shook his head apologetically at his teammates.

He really didn't expect Harden to suddenly run without the ball, otherwise his reaction speed could be faster.

"It's okay, we're still ahead! We'll find a chance to come back later." Wang Zelin's words reassured everyone.

Yes, they are still ahead, and it is Mosaic who are eager to chase points.

However, Harden's consecutive three-pointers dispelled the arrogance of the Trail Blazers players because of their big lead. In the next game, they will be more serious about every offense and defense.

For the Blazers to attack.

It can be seen from Lillard's meticulous organization that the Blazers' offensive rhythm has not changed because of the opponent's consecutive scoring.

In the new season, they have become more and more calm, gradually showing the temperament of a strong team, unlike last season, they still have a bit of "upstart" feeling.

Seeing this, Zhang Lili nodded silently.

When you are at a disadvantage, you definitely need to keep calm, which is conducive to making the right choice; and when you are in an advantage, the lack of arrogance or impatience is sometimes even more precious.

A basketball game lasts 48 minutes, and no one dares to say that they will win until the last moment; there are 82 regular season games and several playoff games in a season. This is a marathon contest.

Therefore, it is really important to maintain a good attitude at all times!

As soon as Lillard was close to the three-point line, Batum suddenly ran back and cut to the basket!

Chandler probably didn't expect Batum's reverse run to be so fast. He just turned around and found that Batum had already run several steps away.

This guy seems... angry?

"Nicholas Batum cuts back, super fast, he wants to... oh, Lillard actually passes the ball in, the timing is just right!"

Lillard found Batum in the crowd and stuffed the ball into the latter's hands.

In a basketball game, every score is the result of multi-party cooperation.

For example, the reverse running cut in front of you does not mean that someone on the offensive side can get a chance to score after a successful cut. You have to see if the organizer can deliver the ball in time.

And just now, Lillard undoubtedly showed his organizational talent.

The reason why the Trail Blazers have become stronger and stronger is Lillard's contribution.

In the fleeting time, Lillard stuffed the ball to Batum. No one expected the ball to pass so fast and so accurately.

So that when Batum hit the penalty area with the ball, Howard hadn't reacted yet.

What happened to the kidney?

In the blink of an eye, how did the ball get to Batum?
Don't wait for me!

Howard hurriedly stepped forward and raised his arms high, intending to prevent Batum from laying up.

However, in the next second, Batum ignored the number 12 of the Mosaic team standing in front of him, ignoring the most active center forward in the population, and went straight up!

Howard under the basket only saw that Batum seemed to have springs on his feet, and he broke away from gravity in an instant and jumped up.

He screamed in his heart, but it was too late to avoid bad luck.

Subsequently, Batum and Howard collided hard.

Although Howard raised his arms high, Astro Boy still smashed the ball into the basket abruptly across the opponent.

At this moment, as if the entire Toyota Center Arena had been fitted with a silencer, it was silent for about a second, and then ~ the volcano erupted!
"Dunk! Howard suffered a brutal dunk! The French Pippen Batum of the Trail Blazers completely ignored Howard's height, and he completely ignored the patron saint of the restricted area of ​​the Mosaic team! This dunk is fully qualified to be selected as the top ten dunks of the season!"

Batum let go, landed from the basket, and then glanced up at the silent Howard.

Batum felt so excited!

He avenged Matthews for his previous revenge.

"The next one is you, Beard. I haven't forgotten the three-pointer just now!"

After dunking Howard, Batum pointed to Harden not far away.

Those who insult my brother are no different from insulting me!
Everyone knows that the French are very romantic, but they don't know that they are also very vengeful.

Howard felt a hatred in his heart!
He hated Batum for dunking himself mercilessly, but what he hated even more was the extremely poor defense on the perimeter.

If it wasn't because they didn't defend well, how could I be the background board for the French!

The Mosaic team reorganized their offense.

This time they wanted to repeat the same trick, but the Trail Blazers could only let them do so. Matthews and Batum quickly completed the defense and destroyed the opponent's tactics.

However, Harden is the super giant seed of the future after all, and found that the shooting space is limited, so he decisively changed his shot to a breakthrough.

After a few steps forward, Harden was double-teamed.

At this time, it is time to test the ability to break double teams.

Facing Batum and Aldridge, who were flailing their teeth and claws, Harder calmly hit the ground and passed!
The basketball passed through the gap between the two, bounced off the ground, and was passed to Asik!

If there is double-teaming, there will naturally be vacancy. This is the eternal law on the basketball court.

Aldridge came out to double-team Harden, and Asik, who was sitting under the basket waiting to eat, got the best offensive opportunity.

The Turks are so happy, they want to eat cakes!

This is one of his few scoring abilities, but opportunities don't come all the time.

As a blue-collar player, he finally got a chance to score a show dunk, how could he let it go so easily?

The Turks rallied and took a big step forward, ready to remove it.

At this moment, all he had in his eyes was the basket!
Seeing that the basket was getting closer and closer to him, Asik was eager to try with both hands, but just as he was about to exert his strength, he saw a hand lying between the basketball and the basket.

"???"

Asik is a little confused, isn't it an unguarded basket?
Wait, the guy who reached out seems to be wearing the number 36 jersey, right?

Did something go wrong?
What is Dwight doing?

Where is your slot?
"Snapped!"

With the sound of slapping, Asik was shocked to find that his ball was gone!

"Oh!!!"

This cap grab immediately caused a sensation in the audience, and the waves of exclamation were endless.

"The king's iconic aerial cap!"

At this moment, Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.

"This, this... is really a good cover!"

Drexler explained reluctantly, but secretly scolded the players of the Mosaic team for their disappointment.

"Haha! The king's hat grab is too shocking! Omega Asik has been completely fooled, and even forgot to return to defense!"

Yang Yi laughed.

This cap grab completely killed Asik's fighting spirit.

After a few minutes of the second quarter, the point difference has already been scored by 15 points. Harden, who was chasing points like crazy before, seemed to be a farce on the clown.

No matter how admirable his efforts are, it is so funny to watch.

王泽林仅上了16分钟时间，7投7中，罚球3中3，拿到了17分11篮板5盖帽1助攻2犯规的数据。

No. [-] in efficiency!

The third quarter started, Howard didn't play, and sat on the bench in a daze.

He was blocked by Wang Zelin three times. It can be said that Howard's contribution is the greatest for Wang Zelin's blocking data to be so luxurious.

Facing Wang Zelin's single defense, Howard played like a headless chicken. For him who is proud and arrogant, this is intolerable and he is in a very bad mood.

After sitting for almost half a quarter, the scoreboard showed 75:55, and the point difference came to 20 points. To be exaggerated, the game came to garbage time.

beep~~~
Mosaic coach Mike Hale called a timeout, and the audience was looking forward to his next tactical arrangement.

However, what ushered in was the attack of the main force.

This is... a surrender?

On the other side, the Blazers were all stunned.

Could it be that he struck too hard, so that the Mosaic team's confidence in counterattack was wiped out.

"..."

Seeing this scene, countless Mosaic players suddenly felt that they were cheated.

This is the unstoppable "OK combination" of the new era that the management said...

Tamarin ~ Get your money back!
There were boos all around, so there was no need to say much about who was given.

After a few more rounds, the score difference between the two sides intensified. After coach Terry Stotts confirmed that the opponent was sincerely surrendering, he used the official timeout time to replace all the main players and set up a substitute lineup.

At this moment, Howard didn't play his cards according to McHale's routine, and insisted on playing.

Seeing that he was so active, McHale broke the jar and threw the tactical board, saying that labor and management don't care!
When the mosaic fans who hadn't left the field saw Howard re-dressed, [-] alpacas rushed past in their hearts.

Li Zaigan, God and Demon?
Seeing Howard play, Wang Zelin sprayed out Gatorade, messing up Terry Stotts' tactical board.

"...Ahem, coach, I didn't mean to."

Wang Zelin quickly explained.

Never expected that Howard would be so shameless, running out of garbage time to collect points.

After playing for a few minutes, everyone witnessed the process of Howard bullying the substitute players. This guy was also impolite. Seeing that the player defending him became Adams, he used his body to continuously force the opponent.

What can be endured, what can't be endured!

第三节比赛进行到7分51秒时，霍华德的数据栏变成了22分9篮板3盖帽，特里斯托茨那个气啊！

Even the mosaic fans on the side couldn't stand it anymore.

beep~~~
The Trail Blazers called a timeout.

"Wang, come on! Understand?"

Seeing Adams looking like he was about to cry, Terry Stotts gritted his teeth.

"Got it! Sir!"

Wang Zelin got up and roared.

Mosaic team bench.

Seeing that his stats were about to reach 20+10, Howard tasted Gatorade happily in his heart, but he didn't realize that the eyes of the people around him had started to look weird when they saw him.

Maybe he had already found out, but so what?
Since the pursuit of victory is fruitless, why not strive for a good data!
After all, the NBA is also a league that looks at statistics.

Players with good statistics are always easy to get big contracts.

"Give me the ball in a while, just pull it away!"

Howard smugly yelled at the bench players, he had already foreseen that he was about to double the rebound...

Until, he discovered that the opposing player had changed back to No. 36 of the Trail Blazers.

Face-to-face attack, Wang Zelin carefully looked at Howard's face. He shook his head slightly until the latter got hairy, and said, "I realized now that I was wrong! It's a pity that I regarded you as my only opponent before. Now it seems that you are in the past tense! You and I are no longer players at the same level. No, you are no longer worthy of being my opponent!"

"You! Put! Fart!"

Howard kept yelling while pushing Wang Zelin hard from behind.

It can be seen that Howard is a little out of control, and Wang Zelin feels more and more worthless for his previous thoughts.

Master Huo, who will turn his prodigal son back in the future, will make many fans feel distressed, but don't forget, he did it all by himself.

The cause of today, the fruit of tomorrow!
Want to compare who is crazier?

Come on then!

Wang Zelin made fake moves with the ball, but Howard was unmoved. In the next second, he directly broke through the frame, knocked Howard away and dunked violently, and caused Howard's fifth foul of the game.

Looking down at Howard who fell to the ground, Wang Zelin didn't say anything mocking this time. He used his actions to prove what he said just now:
You, Howard, are no longer worthy of being my opponent!
"You wait for me, damn Oriental! Damn yellow-skinned bastard..."

When Howard threw Jeremy Lin to help him, he stood up quickly, without any consideration of how his words just hurt the hearts of his teammates.

Hearing the indecent words in Howard's mouth, Wang Zelin turned around immediately, and said coldly: "If you really want to experience the feeling of going to hell, I can help you!"

Looking at this ferocious face, feeling the terrifying deterrent force emanating from it, tremendous pressure rushed to his face.

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

Seeing that the two were getting closer and closer, the linesman immediately blew his whistle to prevent some accidents from happening.

"Pay attention, go to the free throw!"

Both of them are popular figures in the league, and the referee couldn't deliberately favor one side, so he had to remind Wang Zelin.

"Hey, Mr. Referee, we're just having a friendly chat, don't you think so, Dwight! Hmm~"

"…Yes, it is!"

Recalling Wang Zelin's explosive fighting power after entering the league, Howard's inner anger dissipated immediately.

He didn't want to anger the beast in front of him!

"That's the best."

The referee nodded indifferently.

"Shh!"

2+1 is done.

After a brief hustle and bustle, the game continued.

In the third quarter, there were no changes in Howard's stat line...except turnovers and fouls.

The last quarter was completely reduced to garbage time. Coach Terry Stotts seized the opportunity and began to line up again.

The final score of the Trail Blazers was as high as 138 points. Mo Williams deserved to be a master of chaos. He scored 17 points in the final quarter, further widening the score difference to 33 points.

138:105, the opening game of the Trail Blazers 2013~2014 season officially ended.
