NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 293
33 points, 21 rebounds, 7 blocks and 2 assists... Super triple-double luxury data!
Wang Zelin’s performance in the first game of the new season can’t be overstated with the phrase “Wang Boomed the start”. This is because he didn’t play off the court for most of the second quarter. He played only 31 minutes, otherwise the statistics would have to be improved.

整个球队的其余人，7人得分上双，利拉德得到了16分13助攻、阿尔德里斯都到了22分9篮板、巴图姆拿到了15分、马修斯拿到了12分，替补阵容中的莫威廉姆斯和加内特表现也相当不俗，各自拿到了23分和11分。

In contrast, the Mosaic team, except for Harden and Howard, are not bad. The former scored 28 points and the latter scored 22 points.

Of the rest, only Jeremy Lin and backup guard Patrick Beverly scored in double figures. The former scored 12 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds and 3 turnovers, while the latter also scored 12 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist.

Of course, for many fans who didn't watch the whole game, the "Modden Combination" scored 50 points together for the first time in this game, showing the style of the combination of "the league's first center and future first shooting guard".

As for how Howard and Harden are so good, why would they lose with the team?

"The two of them have tried their best, there is no way, who let the teammates CBA!"

As soon as the game ended, such arguments spread around Houston.

At the press conference, Wang Zelin first praised all the players of the Trail Blazers, and then answered the reporters' questions patiently one by one.

After getting a good start and winning by a big score, it is impossible to be in a bad mood. When the mood is good, the patience is naturally much better than usual.

However, there was a small episode during the interview.

When he faced the reporter of ESPN, his expression was extremely guilty: "I'm really sorry, I accidentally blew it up. You just selected the No. [-] center in the league this season. After all, you are the most authoritative media in the entire league. You still have to save face! Don't worry, I will definitely pay attention next time."

The reality is ~ next time may not be sure!
U.S. time, the evening of October 2013, 10.

The Portland Trail Blazers beat their opponents by 13 points in the 14-33 season opener!
In the new season, the first victory was achieved.

……

……

……

"33 points and 21 rebounds! Isn't he the number one center?"

--New York Times

"Crazy night! Crazy stats! And... crazy Houstonians!" - Los Angeles Times
"New era OK combination? Come on, the Mosaic team can pass the Trail Blazers in this year's playoffs!" - Shaquille O'Neal tweeted

"A theory is never suitable for the NBA. According to reliable sources from insiders: Howard played with a slight back injury that day. Such a fighting spirit deserves praise from all of us!"

— Henry Abbott of ESPN

……

If we really want to say it, it is the frenzy in China.

Because Yao Ming's power in the political arena is growing, and Wang Zelin's outstanding performance in his rookie season is also convincing enough, the country has officially decided to favor Wang Zelin. It is no longer like last season, but fans and some media spontaneously made small noises.

Never underestimate the power of the state machine!
As soon as the game ended, almost immediately, the sports sections of major domestic portal websites became the back garden of Wang Zelin and the Trail Blazers, and the headlines on the homepage were all contracted by Wang Zelin and the Trail Blazers.

For example, the pictures of "Wang Zelin catches Asik", "Wang Zelin catches a dunk", "Wang Zelin's wonderful pass assists Aldridge for a layup" appear on the forums over and over again!
In addition to Wang Zelin's own game photos, there are also many underground photos of other teammates. Well-known players such as Lillard, Aldridge, and Batum attracted countless fans overnight.

Some talents even started to find another channel. After finding that the picture of the game was difficult to attract clicks, they made a lot of effort to get all kinds of hilarious pictures of the Trail Blazers during the break.

Not to mention, the whole thing is really eye-catching.

So ever!
Wang Zelin's laughing pictures began to become popular on the Internet. Although there is still a certain distance from Chairman Yao's famous scene, the momentum cannot be underestimated!

There are even some guys who are so idle that they play a game of "new wine in old bottles", saying directly that it is a new use for bad stalks!

The meaning of the original title: "Scored 7 points and 3 rebounds in the first show, Ah Lian smiled slightly, he has won the trust of the coach!"

There are also a few pictures of Yi Jianlian's dunks or shots in the article, and the last picture is accompanied by the smile on the bench when he got up from the bench and gave Wang Zelin a high-five just off the court... The intention is self-evident.

Portland, USA.

Wang Zelin's home.

"Hahaha! Brother Ah Lian, come and take a look at this, this year's netizens are too messed up! I'll go! It's really fucking amazing..."

Leaning on the sofa, Wang Zelin burst out laughing while swiping his phone, bursting out with beautiful Huaxia dialects frequently.

"What's the matter... what the hell!"

Yi Jianlian leaned over with puzzled eyes, and the next second, another beautiful Huaxia sentence came out of his mouth.

"Don't put on a sour face, I checked the comment section, and all the netizens are praising you!"

"Ha ha."

"Uh, in fact, you played really well that day, and I didn't expect you to adapt to the team's rhythm so quickly."

"Ha ha."

"..."

Come on, the sky has been chatted to death.

"Wang, Yi, it's time to eat. I learned another Chinese dish from sister Jin Ling today. It's called barbecued pork with honey sauce. Come and help me serve it."

In the kitchen, Reina's voice came, just breaking the sudden silence in the air.

"Oh, I'll be right here."

Wang Zelin jumped up from the sofa, ran and jumped out of the living room.

The second game of the season is scheduled for November 11 against the Phoenix Suns.

Properly send warmth!

The game will be held at 19:30 tonight. This is the first home game of the Trail Blazers this season. Although the opponents seem a bit weak, well, in fact there are many, but Coach Terry Stotts still asks everyone not to relax their vigilance.

The first home game, they must win.

Yesterday, Yi Jianlian's wife, Jin Ling, came to the United States. Wang Zelin and Leina went to their house as guests, and they reciprocated courtesy. Today, it's their turn to visit Wang Zelin's house.

"Yo, it's quite fragrant, Sister Jinling, please excuse me."

My family knows about my own family affairs, but Wang Zelin has never discovered that Leina has any talent for cooking... She only knows how to eat.

Therefore, these dishes must be made by Jin Ling.

At a glance, it's all Cantonese cuisine.

Speaking of which, after seeing Jin Ling yesterday, Wang Zelin knew that Yi Jianlian was married.

Although the two of them were teammates of the national team for a long time, they only met a few times a year and played a few games. They had a good friendship but never a deep one. Therefore, if people didn't take the initiative to ask such personal questions, he would definitely not ask them.

Later, Wang Zelin suddenly remembered that Yi Jianlian's personal information had shown that Yi Jianlian's first son was born on September 9 next year.

That is to say, going back 10 months, the first crystallization of love between Yi Jianlian and Jin Ling was born at the end of this year...

Uh, wait, Wang Zelin suddenly came to his senses. Why did he think about these things? It has nothing to do with him. At most, he can consider becoming a godfather when Yi Jianlian's son is born...

Forget it, let's talk about it later.

The most important thing now is not cooking.

As a cook, I really shouldn't have forgotten such an important life event as cooking.

After breakfast, Wang Zelin and Yi Jianlian went to the team training hall together in the afternoon, and the pre-match meeting was scheduled for the afternoon.

……

On November 11, the Trail Blazers played against the Phoenix Suns at home, and the fans witnessed a feast of confrontation.

Even without D'Antoni now, the Suns still continue the style system of running and bombing and small ball.

So after half the game, one side scored 58 points, and the other side, even more exaggerated, scored 66 points, which is close to 70 points... Well, the Blazers are ahead and the Suns are behind.

Wang Zelin really felt poisonous.

Shouldn't it really be overturning?

It seems that in the history of the NBA, there is really no lack of cases of dark horses at the beginning of the season who overcame the playoff seeding teams with weak victories.

The typical representative is the Huskies, that is, the Timberwolves.

This team is also quite metaphysical. It is always like a tiger at the beginning of the new season. First, it is happy to mention a wave of small winning streaks, which makes Timberwolves fans seem to see the hope of the team's rise
It can be said that after the Christmas game, their upward momentum began to decline; when the annual All-Star Weekend passed, everyone knew that the Timberwolves would usher in another bad year!
I have experienced so many times that fans in the future will know their regular season rules.

In fact, Wang Zelin just complained in his heart. He and his teammates still have the confidence to win the game.

Because he could clearly see that the reason why the Suns were able to lead by 8 points was entirely because the Suns' shooting percentage in the first half was too high.

The Trail Blazers' shooting percentage is still in the normal range. Their scoring average of 106 points per game last season is already in the forefront of the league. Although the team has become stronger this season, their scoring average will not be too high, roughly in the range of 107-110.

The average score in a single quarter is between 26 and 28. From this point of view, their performance is very stable.

It's just that the opponent scored too many fairy goals, especially the 14-for-10 three-pointer percentage, which is outrageous.

However, Wang Zelin and the coaching staff believe that it is difficult for the Suns to maintain such a super high shooting rate. As long as the Trail Blazers increase their defensive strength, it will be fine if the Suns can hold on by then.

Sure enough, in the second half, the Trail Blazers players followed the coach's request, allowing the Suns players to experience the defensive intensity of the playoffs in advance. Their high shots eventually killed themselves.

The first half was an indiscriminate attack, and the second half turned into all kinds of crazy strikes.

There is a saying that Feng Shui takes turns.

When the Suns' three-point tactics failed, it was the turn of the Trail Blazers' shooters.

Especially last year, Lillard, who just set 177 three-pointers in the first rookie season in history, felt hot in the second half. He made 5 of 4 three-pointers in a single quarter and 13 of 9 shots in the game. He scored 35 points in this game. Among these 35 points, 9 points brought by 27 three-pointers accounted for 77% of the total score.

In the last game, Wang Zelin scored 33 points and 21 rebounds. This time, when he returned to the Rose Garden Arena, it was Lillard's turn to make a big effort. He broke his career record with 9 three-pointers in a single game. The audience watched 35 points and 8 assists...

In two games, the amazing performance of two sophomores made every Trail Blazers fan crazy.

Including the rest of the team, they also contributed a total of 10 three-pointers. The Blazers made 31 of 19 three-pointers and hit 61.2%. They shot down the Suns in the most proud way.

The Blazers team scored 121 points, 121:108, and defeated the Phoenix Suns by 13 points, achieving the second and second victories of the new season.

Among them, the three-pointers alone accounted for 57 points of the team's points!
In a trance, many far-sighted people realized that three-pointers may occupy more and more important roles in the future league.

Because since the league has encouraged offense more and more, the scoring average of all teams has been higher every year.

It should be noted that before 2010, the average scoring of each team in the league was only maintained at around 90+, and there were still a small number of teams averaging 100 points per game.

Unlike now, only a few years later, there are many players who average more than 100 points per game. They dare to advertise themselves as a strong offensive team. Which one is not a ruthless player who averages more than 105 points per game, and some even reach around 110 points.

The era of scoring explosion is coming!

In other words, the era of player data explosion is coming!

……

……

……

"It was a false alarm! The Blazers like to mention two consecutive victories, and their record ranks first in the league!"

There are those who praise the Blazers for their winning streak.

"The sun has finally set, and I don't know when it will be Nirvana!"

There are also those who regret the defeat of the sun.

In this game between the Trail Blazers and the Suns, there is one thing to say. Whether it is the first half or the second half, the game is really exciting. Both sides showed their offensive firepower to the fullest.

Especially the Phoenix Suns, who were regarded as the weaker side before the game, were able to suppress last year's Western Conference Finals powerhouse Trail Blazers by 8 points in the first half, which is already admirable enough.

What they do is good enough.

Unfortunately, their opponents did better than them.

This led to continued hot topics after the game.

In the last game, Wang Zelin was still discussing how he beat Howard, but he was not the league's number one center, and he was even one rank behind Howard in the ESPN player rankings.

Another Trail Blazers player broke out this time.

No. 0 guard ~ Damian Lillard!

This was one of the hottest rookies last year and is also recognized as one of the strongest rookies.

As luck would have it, the No. 36 of the same team is stronger...

On this year's player list list, No. 36 Wang Zelin ranks in the top ten, but what about No. 0 Lillard?
Not to mention the top [-] in the league, or even the top [-], few media ranked him in it.

This is not what Lillard wants to see.

The Portland Trail Blazers don't just have one voice, there's another voice in this land, and it's me - Damian Lillard!
　There are still two days until the teaching qualification test, almighty readers, wish me a hit (manually funny)
