basketball talent system

Chapter 497 New Season

After Ye Xuan inquired about the system, he found out that this item is also a one-time consumption item of the same level as "God's Tears", but the effect of "God's Tears" is on Ye Xuan's shooting percentage. And the "UFO experience pass" is to allow Ye Xuan to have strong enough jumping ability and creativity when dunking. This is simply tailor-made for the All-Star Game together with the new system. Now what Ye Xuan has to do is By the time of the All-Stars, I will prove to everyone that not only blacks and whites can fly, but also yellow people can fly.

In addition to the 'UFO experience coupon', there is another thing that is the S-level basketball skills lottery ticket. This thing is known to be a high-end product just by the name, because he explained that it is a basketball skill lottery ticket, so it will not be repeated at that time. What talent has been drawn out, such as "Curry's talent for biting teeth" or "Karl Malone's talent for iron elbow", which has no crown with basketball skills.

Naturally, Ye Xuan couldn't wait to try it, so he decisively exhaled Xiaokong, and then started to draw prizes.

"Xiaokong, help me use the 'S-level basketball skill lottery ticket'."

"Good master, please wait a moment."

"Ding... ding... ding. ding ding... ding! Congratulations to the master for getting the 'Kevin-Martin's Foul Liar Talent' talent level S." Ye Xuan jumped up instantly, this skill is what he needs all the time Yes, the current Ye Xuan's foul defense is very rare. Apart from shaking the opponent up and then going up to make a foul, he just covers his head and stabs inside. As for whether he can draw a foul, it depends on whether the referee will give him face. , and foul-making masters like Kevin Martin and Harden are different. Their foul-making skills are very useful, so they can rely on free throws to get a lot of points per game. Their free throw percentage is the first in the league. The existence of no solution, and let yourself acquire the skill of drawing fouls, isn't this the same as making yourself the league's one-point leader?It seems that in addition to dominating the three-point line in the future, I will also have to compete with Harden on the one-point line.

After the lottery draw, Ye Xuan also exited the system with peace of mind. The lottery draw and upgrade this time has brought some good results to Ye Xuan, although most of the things are still not needed or used for specific occasions Yes, but in the end, Ye Xuan was given a foul deception talent that he could study for a period of time, which improved his overall strength.

Time passed quickly. It has been almost two weeks since Ye Xuan returned to Los Angeles to enjoy the tranquility before the start of the new season. In fact, the team has basically assembled, only Ye Xuan, Wade and Gasol These three bosses have not yet returned to the team for training. Ye Xuan had only finished the Olympic Games at the end of August, so in order to avoid Ye Xuan’s strain, he specially approved the vacation, while Wade and Gasol, because of their old age. High, training is basically a waste of physical energy for them, and training with those young people, what should I do if I get injured by them?
However, the rest time always passed quickly. Ye Xuan felt that he had just started to rest, and more than half of September had already passed.The Lakers have also started the new season's collective training. There is actually another important change this year, that is, the Lakers are arranged to play a preseason game abroad. This is a preseason arrangement with the Clippers. They will go to Ye Xuan's hometown, that is, China, had a series of preseason matches.

Except for October [-]st, which is China's National Day, the Lakers will face the Mavericks at the Staples Arena. The Lakers will start preparing to fly to Shenzhen, China, and play against the Clippers at the Shenzhen Universiade Center. The first match of the preseason China game, followed by a relatively free time. On October [-]th, they will have a second match with the Clippers at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai. Then they I will rush to Beijing to play against the Clippers for the third time in the Wukesong Stadium. The two Los Angeles teams, the Clippers, have arranged three games. Of course, this is also their last playoff game, and then they can rest until the end of October, and then start the regular season.

Naturally, Ye Xuan would not be idle. Before the start of the preseason, Ye Xuan relied on the support of management, coaching staff, Wade, Gasol and others to become the only voice in the locker room. This is still very important. Although the Pacers used to be a team of two people, Paojiao and Ye Xuan, in the end it was Ye Xuan who was talking. Paojiao's character made him appear very humble, so Ye Xuan didn't leave. Before, the Pacers' locker room was always calm, including Rondo, but after Ye Xuan left, the authority of Pickled Pepper was also challenged because of his previous humility. Rondo jumped out to question this and that Yes, isn't it because no one can suppress him? (When Ye Xuan was around, he probably was also afraid of being beaten. After all, Ye Xuan's name of tearing down your dead man was still very popular some time ago.)
In fact, there is basically no one in this Lakers team who can stand up to challenge Ye Xuan's position. First of all, Wade and Gasol are on Ye Xuan's side, making it basically impossible for the team to have anything else The other players are either Ye Xuan's lackeys back then, or young players with no achievements. Facing Ye Xuan, a big-name player who has won the championship, the MVP of the finals and the MVP of the regular season, Naturally no offense.

And Ye Xuan naturally knows the secrets of getting along with his teammates, so he didn't particularly emphasize any rules. The relationship between everyone is very good, and after a large-scale substitution, the remaining players are also still It is a relatively dynamic one, so the team looks much more dynamic than last season.

Moreover, Ye Xuan's experience in the Olympics also gave him a lot of inspiration, so in training matches and other games, Ye Xuan mainly focused on passing the ball, which not only made rookies and second- and third-year players Being able to get more opportunities to show themselves can also mobilize their enthusiasm. Ye Xuan's actions are also telling everyone a conclusion, that is, as long as they play actively, they can get opportunities. Healthy competition.

Soon it was time for the first preseason game, and the Lakers sat in the Staples Center to face the Mavericks who came to challenge.Despite some ups and downs, the Mavericks' performance last season exceeded expectations.From the data point of view, in addition to 28.6 three-point shots per game (ranking 5th), the Mavericks' average shots/shooting percentage, three-point shooting percentage and free throws per game are all ranked around 20.In addition, the Mavericks can only return 20.6% of the missed bullets, ranking only 25th. As a result, the Mavericks averaged only 102.3 points per game, ranking only in the middle (16th).

However, if the rhythm factor is removed (the Mavericks are slow and only ranked 23rd), the Mavericks actually rank in the top 100 points per 10 rounds, and their true shooting percentage (54.4%) is also in the top half (14th).With a slow pace and few turnovers (12.3 turnovers per game ranked third), the Mavericks' offense is streamlined and efficient.Compared to offense, the Mavericks are in the middle of the pack (3th) in points allowed per 100 possessions (104.3).The team ranks in the forefront of the league in restricting opponents' three-point shots/shooting percentage and free throws, but in terms of restricting opponents' total shots and shooting percentage, they are both in the middle and lower reaches of the league.This is also one of the reasons why they fell out of the playoffs with only one win in the end.

However, the operation of the Mavericks in the summer is relatively good. Seizing the opportunity of the Warriors to clear the warehouse for the introduction of Kevin Durant, the Mavericks collected Barnes and Bogut in one go, and found a new team for Parsons and Pachulia. suitable replacement.Barnes replacing a healthy Parsons may not be an upgrade, but if Bogut is healthy, he will be the Mavericks' strongest five since Tyson Chandler in 2011, considering that he only has one year left on his contract , and the Mavericks' short-term plan to chase super giants every year, it is cheap and high-quality.Of course, Rick Carlisle has to think about how to allocate the playing time of the Australian center.

The Mavericks intend to rely heavily on Barnes and will give him more power to fire and a more important role, which not only reduces the scoring pressure for Dirk, but also finds a new cornerstone for the post-Dirk era.Therefore, the performance of Barnes after his sudden rise in status, as well as Bogut's health, will be the key to the success or failure of the Mavericks' new season.As for the new contract for Dirk, it is more like a reward for his past salary cuts, and it is even more valuable at the moment when the salary cap is soaring.In addition, the introduction of Seth and Eich, the renewal of Deron and Powell, and some other signings also belong to "good steel used wisely" in the eyes of the industry.Although the Mavericks have repeatedly missed the next super giant since dismantling the 2011 championship team, and this summer's operation has not changed, but they have always gained something in the offseason in recent years and maintained their strength. cease.

As mentioned above, the Mavericks have been productively completing Plan B in recent years.With the precedent of being underestimated by the industry last year but rising to the face, even if they are still underestimated this summer, no one can remove them from the playoff contenders.

But also because they have not been able to implement Plan A as they wished, the Mavericks are still plagued by a problem this season: the lack of independent scoring leaders.It's great that Barnes can take over smoothly. If the Mavericks still have to rely on the aging Dirk in the end, not only will it waste another year, but it will also be difficult to improve their attractiveness to big-name free agents next summer.The joining of the Warriors 2 generals is bound to bring upgrades to the Mavericks' defense. Bogut, who is good at passing, and Dirk's inside echoes, and the all-around Barnes (Carlisle mentioned him earlier, don't patronize scoring but forget defense and Rebounds) support on the wing is also a highlight.In addition, whether the veterans (Deron, Barea, Devin Harris) are still able to eat, and the progress of the young people (Seth, Justin Anderson, Powell) will also affect the level of the Mavericks' tough battles.In short, the Mavericks' reinforcements can be called the right medicine, but they still can't aim high in the new season and still need to work hard to survive.Perhaps, before the next superstar arrives, this will become the norm for the Mavericks.

However, these are not worth mentioning to the Lakers. Ye Xuan was even pushed on the bench in this game and served as a substitute. The starting player was Raymond, who officially played for the Mavericks last season. De Felton, although Ye Xuan is missing, but under the leadership of Gasol and Wade, the team still played very well. In the first 7 minutes, the Lakers scored 19 :11 leading the opponent by 8 points. This is also due to Barnes. There was only 6 hit in the shot, which is almost the same as when the Cavaliers came back 1:1 in the finals, and some people said that Barnes missed the shot because of too much pressure, but now it is a preseason game , Reasonably, there will be no pressure, but the result is still desperate. It seems that the Mavericks' signing is destined to lose money.

After Ye Xuan made his official debut, the Lakers went straight up and down, replacing all five starters, and replaced Ye Xuan with Solomon Hill, Nick Young, Speights and Larry Jr. -Nance, Ye Xuan was also very rude. He used his super shooting ability to hit a super difficult three-pointer, widening the point difference to more than 10 points. Afterwards, although under the leadership of veteran Harris , the Mavericks immediately returned a three-pointer, but the bench led by Ye Xuan couldn't do anything else, but there was no problem with shooting open shots. Ye Xuan broke through and found Nick Young, and Yang Shaoxia didn't say anything , Pulling it up is a three-point shot, and the ball hits.

Afterwards, Ye Xuan sent out successive assists. For a while, he helped Solomon Hill hit a three-pointer, and for a while, he helped Larry Nance Jr. to make an empty catch. Speights also got two open shots. .The remaining 5 minutes of the first quarter basically became the time for Ye Xuan to collect assists. At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers actually scored another 5 points in this short 19 minutes, and the Mavericks also scored 11 points. It's a tragedy. Although he scored 38 points, his defense has been abused by his opponent.After winning the opponent by 22 points 16:[-] in a single quarter, the Lakers are also having fun here, including Ci Shiping and Zubac all got playing time, and of course Green.

Originally, Ye Xuan thought that Green was actually a slam dunk, but he didn't expect that Green's state was a bit similar to JR-Smith. , Then at that time, you will need a military adviser to help you make suggestions, and Green, who has won the slam dunk contest, naturally becomes the best candidate for the military adviser. As for Kobe, who also won the slam dunk contest, forget it. It depends on the difficulty. In addition to the difficulty, the current dunk contest also needs gimmicks.
