Play in God's jersey

Chapter 194 Waiting for an Opportunity on the Bench

Sitting on the bench, Qian Duoduo looked at the players on both sides preparing to start the game, and unconsciously thought of a report on the draft ratings of each team that he saw on the EPSN website a few days ago.

There are only three teams rated A+,
Because the Chicago Bulls selected a player with leadership qualities like Derrick Rose with the No. [-] pick in their hands, they can make the team's teammates stronger.This draft is expected to make the Bulls rank among the top teams in the league in the next ten years;
The Miami Heat used the second pick to select the talented player Beasley, and also obtained the 34th overall rookie Chalmers through a trade with the Timberwolves to achieve the purpose of strengthening the team;
The third team rated A+ turned out to be the Bucks. After Ferson, their defense this year will be far better than last season.

And there is only one team with an A rating, and that is the New Jersey Nets, because only the No. 10 pick was used to pick the best center player Brook Lopez among the rookies in this class, and the other two rookies are also very good. Potential players.In addition, the Nets acquired Yi Jianlian through a trade before, so the draft day is a harvest day for the Nets.

As for the Suns' draft pick, Bricks gave one of the lowest grades, getting only a C grade.After the Suns made a heavy trade for Shaquille O'Neal, with O'Neal as the starting center, they originally urgently needed a defensive center to help O'Neal share the pressure, but the Suns management chose Robin- Lopez later traded him for a Chinese big man with an unpredictable future.

Is the future unpredictable?It's Cassidy Hubbers, the female reporter who ranks the top ten players in the NCAA.Qian Duoduo recalled the phrase "the future is unpredictable" in his heart, and looked at the field.

On the court, the old sharks O'Neal and Horford jumped the ball.

Bibby came over with the ball, tried to get past Nash, took a step inside the three-point line, and handed it to Joe Johnson in the high post on the left. Joe Johnson caught the ball and shot, and it was iron.

Stoudemire took the backcourt rebound and handed it to Nash. Nash quickly dribbled the ball forward. Stoudemire, Bell and Hill all rushed to the frontcourt. Obviously, they still have the deep imprint of last season's run-and-gun tactics , Terry Porter has not been able to remove it.

Nash dribbled the ball into the Eagles' three-point line, copied the ball, and passed the ball across his back to Stoudemire who followed up. Stoudemire followed up and completed a dunk.This attack did not take 7 seconds at all.

Qian Duoduo sighed in his heart when he saw Nash running on the court with his long hair fluttering, how elegant and flamboyant he was.

Back, the Hawks attack, Josh - Smith returned a jumper in front of Stoudemire, succeeded.Stoudemire still hasn't changed much on the defensive end, and he can't be guarded if he can't be guarded.

The Suns rushed another fast attack, this time Lagabel shot, but the ball just bounced out of the frame.

Horford took the rebound, handed it to Joe Johnson to take it up the court, and threw a three-pointer. After all, he has been with the Suns and is more familiar with the basket here?Three-point hit.

O'Neill followed the others and ran on the field a few times. What the hell, before the two people ran, the front had already retreated, so he had to turn around and run back immediately.

Finally, under the signal of coach Terry Porter on the sidelines, Nash controlled the rhythm and did not lead the team to rush up again. He waited for O'Neal to pass halftime and ran to the basket to get a position before giving him the ball.

O'Neal has the ball in his hand, even if he is old, that tonnage is still lethal under the basket. When the shark bared its fangs, Horford, a second-year student, couldn't easily hold it, and was squeezed away by O'Neal. Then a small hook scored.

Seeing this offensive cooperation, Terry Porter nodded slightly. The half-court battle was the change in the team's play style he wanted to see.

It’s just that the improvement he wanted to see on the defensive end of the team didn’t seem to be there yet. After 4 minutes in the first quarter, the team’s performance on the defensive end has not improved much. The Eagles can always easily After scoring the ball, the Suns only relied on the sharpness of the offensive end to maintain the score, 10 to 8, temporarily maintaining a two-point lead.

Terry Porter waved his hand, ready to replace the bench,

Qian Duoduo caught sight of it, and his buttocks were about to lift up and leave the seat.

But what Porter wants to replace is not Qianduoduo,

Instead, Matt Barnes replaced Grant Hill.

Replace O'Neal with the big man Louis Amundson who signed with the team for a two-year minimum salary.

Qian Duoduo had no choice but to put his butt back on the seat and continue to wait.

Winning or losing the preseason doesn't really matter, and the team doesn't care.The team's veterans are just playing casually to find their status, but it is of great significance to those rookies who have never played in the NBA and players who have only signed a training camp contract. The former is anxiously looking forward to The NBA game in China has finally arrived, and the latter needs to be popular in the preseason, fight with real swords and guns, and strive to leave an impression in front of the team management, so that the training camp contract can be transformed into a regular season. guarantee contract.

The Suns have three players who have signed a training camp contract this year, including former Heat guard Robert Hayter, Jackson State's main scoring guard Trey Johnson before being drafted this year, and 2M who represented the Suns in this year's summer league. 11 Center Kiri Shuberek, the three of them just looked at coach Terry Porter just as eagerly as Qian Duoduo, and when they saw him waving for a substitution, they all left the bench, ready to be called by the coach at any time You can stand up immediately when you name yourself.Like a recruit in the military camp, he is always ready to listen to the instructor's password, for fear that he will be punished to stand in a military posture if he is a minute and a half late.

Perhaps sensing each other's actions just now, Kiri Shuberek, who was sitting next to Qian Duoduo, smiled at Qian Duoduo, then shrugged his shoulders, but he didn't speak, because he saw O'Neill walking back, with a slap on his buttocks. Sitting beside Qian Duoduo, he hugged Qian Duoduo and went to talk.

After all, they are not treated the same way, even if they behaved the same way just a moment ago.Shuberek felt a little unhappiness and jealousy in his heart, sighed inwardly, turned his head away to look at the field.

"Duoduo, how does it feel to be on the bench waiting to play? Doesn't it feel good? Hehe." O'Neill asked.

"I think it's not bad. You can watch NBA games up close without buying tickets and getting paid." Qian Duoduo replied with a smile, "Anyway, I'm not worried about not having the chance to play."

Shuberek, who heard Qian Duoduo's words, clenched his fists.
