I'm an NBA goalie

Chapter 121 My posture is ready
October 10th, Moda Center.

Today is the opening day of the preseason.That means the season has officially started.

Today's opponent of the Trail Blazers is the Kings.

Wang Dachun and his teammates are now at the entrance of the player tunnel, waiting for the DJ to announce the curtain, and accepting the audience's cheers for the welcome ceremony. He is the third from the bottom to appear.

He has experienced this kind of entrance ceremony many times in the Mavericks, but he has always played in the first three games.

When the DJ called Wang Dachun, Wang Dachun ran out of the stage waving his hands, but the cheers were not ahead.There were loud cheers when Joel entered the arena.There were even some boos.

Wang Dachun made some psychological preparations for this.Frank told him before, based on a ball market survey done by his agency in Portland.Wang Dachun's current popularity is not high.

After all, the arrival of Wang Dachun traded the No. [-] pick chosen by the Trail Blazers.Even though Oden has been looked down upon by many people, including many Trail Blazers fans, they are very disappointed with Oden.

But the No. [-] pick is the No. [-] pick, and there are still many fans who still have illusions about Oden.I think Oden will rise one day.

These fans are dissatisfied and angry about the trade of Oden.Naturally, it was vented on the Blazers management and Wang Dachun.

Wang Dachun didn't care much, when he abolished Bao Wen.The booing of the Spurs at home is much bigger than this.

However, as the regular starting center of the Trail Blazers, Wang Dachun still has to wave to the surrounding fans, including the fans who booed him.

The Trail Blazers are called this year. "Super" Young Guards.

The reason for this name is that the average age of the players on this team is only 23 years old.

That still counts Andre Miller and Juwan Howard.If you don't count these two veterans, the average age of this team will be lower.

The current roster for the Portland Trail Blazers this year is.

Point Guard:

Steve Blake, Andre Miller, Jerry Bayless.

Shooting Guard:

Brandon Roy, Rudy Fernandez.

small forward:
Nicholas Batum, Martell Webster, Dante Cunningham.

Power Forward:
LaMarcus Aldridge, Juwan Howard, Jeff Ayers.

Center:

Wang Dachun, Joel Przybilla.

Among the 13-man roster, only Nicholas Batum has not returned to the team due to injuries last season.

The current fixed starting lineup determined by the Trail Blazers is;

Point guard; Steve Blake.

Shooting Guard: Brandon Roy.

Small Forward: Martell Webster.

Power Forward: LaMarcus Aldridge.

Center forward: Wang Dachun.

Starting point guard Steve Bregg, the oldest player in the starting lineup, is 29 years old this year.Still at its peak.

He averaged 11 points and 5 assists last season.Although it is not an All-Star level, it is definitely qualified as a starting vacancy. You must know that Bragg was also called "The Flash" back then.

And his three-point assist rate was as high as 43% last season.And in the game against the Clippers, he sent 14 assists in a single quarter.Broke the record for the most assists in a single quarter in the NBA.

Starting small forward Mattel Webster.He just returned from injury and temporarily replaced Nicolas Batum, which is considered a false starter.

Maybe it was frightened by Oden's continuous injuries. The head coach Nate McMillan specially ordered his "Trident" before the game.

"The opening game of the preseason is not that important. You just go up and take a formality. Just score a few points and rest. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose. Just leave the rest to the bench and the substitutes!"

Wang Dachun didn't listen to these words of the head coach at all.He has been looking forward to scoring independently on the field for a long time.

He even thought about what kind of celebratory pose he would put on after dunking his opponent.

...

The starting lineup for the Kings today is .

point guard.Tyreke Ivans.

shooting guard.Kevin Martin.

small forward.Desmond Mason.

Power Forward.Sean May.

center.Jason Thompson.

...

Opposing Wang Dachun is naturally his classmate Jason Thompson.

After an offseason, seeing Jason Thompson again, Wang Dachun still sighed.

After this guy entered the league, he directly became the starting center of the Kings.I didn't become a real starting center until this season.

Wang Dachun's current state of mind is like that.Classmates who have graduated for many years gather together.I really want to show off my achievements to others.

The two went to the midfield to compete for the ball, and the referee who jumped the ball was still preparing for the opening.Wang Dachun said to Jason Thompson.

"Hi Jason, long time no see."

"Long time no see, king!"

"I'm also a regular starter!"

"Well, congratulations."

"I'm going to block you in a while, you have to be ready!"

"...The referee is here, prepare to jump the ball!"

Jason Thompson didn't believe what Wang Dachun said.As students of the same class, they basically know what skills each other has.

He believed that Wang Dachun definitely had the ability to isolate others.After all, the physical condition is there.

But the prerequisite is that Wang Dachun can complete the dunk only when he relies on his own bouncing tip-up, or by surprise.

Wang Dachun said in front of him that he would block himself.Jason Thompson was a little angry.

"Do you think I'm Zhan Wu's scum? I've had trouble with you today, making it difficult for you to even grab rebounds!"

...

Game start.

Wang Dachun and Jason Thompson jumped the ball, and he easily passed the ball to Roy.

Wang Dachun will not break the rules of the team, the team's first offense will naturally be handed over to the star of his own team.

After Roy hit the first ball.Wang Dachun was still not in a hurry.The second ball should be handed over to Adelaide.You can't take the lead by yourself.

In the next few rounds, Wang Dachun only grabbed three or four defensive rebounds and completed a dunk.

But as the game progressed, Wang Dachun gradually became anxious.

The Kings were originally the best of the best, and Kevin Martin scored the most.But Roy and Adelaide are surprisingly good today.

Roy broke through Kevin Martin, and it was so easy.Ade hit Xiao Enmei, turning his back and stepping to make the opponent confused.

Plus Wang Dachun didn't know what was wrong with Jason Thompson today.Fighting with him in the penalty area, he would rather give up the offensive rebound to others than let him get the offensive rebound. Wang Dachun has no chance to play a second offense under the blue.

Seeing that the first quarter of the game has come to the end, the score has been over 1 points by Roy and Adela, Wang Dachun did not get the chance to catch the ball.

Wang Dachun was ready to take the initiative to ask for the ball, no matter what, he had to complete a dunk today, and then put himself in the posture of dunking.Otherwise, I would have designed this action for nothing.

Today the Trail Blazers mainly hold the ball with Roy and Blake.It's not that they don't want to pass the ball to Wang Dachun and let Wang Dachun attack.

They all know Wang Dachun's dunk ability under the basket.As long as Wang Dachun wants the ball, they are naturally willing to give it.

Roy and Ade played too smoothly at the beginning of today, and Wang Dachun has been entangled by Jason Thompson in the penalty area.So for the time being, they didn't pass the ball to Wang Dachun.

Now I see Wang Dachun taking the initiative to ask for the ball.He immediately passed the ball to Wang Dachun.When Wang Dachun received the ball, his mood was a little surging.

He wants to show Thompson Thompson what a button master is!

Just as Wang Dachun was about to stand up and dunk, Jason Thomson came over and tried to force it, but it turned out to be a thug foul.

Wang Dachun was sent to the free throw line and made two free throws in depression.

Just as he was about to continue the game, the head coach of the Trail Blazers signaled a substitution.

General Wang Dachun, Roy, and Ade.The three changed at the same time.

Head coach Nate McMillan saw that Royard scored in double figures, and Wang Dachun also got 10 rebounds.

I don't think it is necessary to continue to put the three on the court.The process is almost gone, let them down to rest.And there is no plan to send three people to play.

When Wang Dachun knew that he would not be playing today.He was so entangled in his heart that he really wanted to tell the head coach.

"Coach, I've got my posture ready, at least let me go up and buckle one!"

...

Ask for a recommendation!Ask for collection!
