Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 649 The battle for the best rookie against the Clippers!
For a time, trade rumors lingered around the 76ers.

Hawes and Nosinho have been crying all day long. They have resigned to their fate, and now they are worried about not knowing which team they will be traded to.

Even Holiday was absent-minded during training and made frequent mistakes.

There were rumors before that the team would trade Hawes and Nosinho, but their two chips alone were obviously not enough, and Holiday had to be added to exchange for a powerful insider.

Such rumors are naturally not without reason.

During this period, Qin Hao played better and better, but Holiday's performance was not satisfactory. Although he played well in a few games, his average score per game was still above 10 points, which was comparable to his previous average of 14+6+4 per game. In comparison, it has indeed dropped a lot now.

In addition, Qin Hao is very popular now, and has already achieved the status of the "No. 20 pick". He also overthrew Wall, the No. People are amazed.

This has even exceeded people's expectations of him.

In the 76ers game, Qin Hao's importance has surpassed that of Holiday, and there is a saying that "not starting is better than starting".

So Huo Ledi had to worry that he would be traded, just to make room for Qin Hao.

Some reporters came to inquire about the news one after another, but this time the 76ers management remained silent, and Stefanski did not hold a press conference to clarify.

In this depressing atmosphere, the 76ers rushed to an away game to challenge the Clippers.

At this time in 2010, the Nets had not moved to New York, so Los Angeles was the only city with two NBA teams at the same time, and the Clippers and Lakers were not only in the same city, but also shared the same arena, that is, Staples Arena.

The Clippers is also a team with a long history. It was founded in 1970 and joined the NBA. However, they have never won a championship in 40 years.Some people even only know that there is a Lakers team in Los Angeles, but they don't know that the Clippers are also a Los Angeles team.

But after all, in the bustling city of Los Angeles, the Clippers still enjoy some benefits, and the attendance rate will be much higher than that of some teams in small markets.

Especially this season.

This season, Griffin can finally play for the Clippers after a one-year truce, and his debut is the peak. This season, he averaged 21 points per game, in addition to 11 assists, an average of 21+11 per game. He became the team's scoring leader and rebounding leader in one fell swoop.

With Griffin's outstanding performance, the Clippers have captured many fans, not to mention that today is the Clippers vs. 76ers, the matchup between Griffin and Qin Hao is a highlight.

As the top two players on this year's rookie list, and each of them has played very good statistics and field performance, there are many fans who like them, and there are more fans who pay attention to this game.

[-] p.m., Staples Center.

The auditorium is crowded with tens of thousands of fans, and the attendance rate has exceeded [-]%, which is already a good attendance rate for the Clippers game.

At this moment, the game has not yet started, and the noise in the arena is full of fans talking.

"Where can win today?"

"This is hard to say. The 76ers have a poor record this season, and the Clippers are not much better. They are now No. 12 in the Western Conference. In terms of overall strength, there is not much difference between the two teams. I don't care about this either. I just came to watch Qin and Griffin fight."

"I am also looking forward to their duel. Griffin played very well this season, averaging 20+10 per game, which is completely an All-Star insider's data. But Qin also played very well, especially recently , averaging 20+5+5 per game, not worse than Griffin. I just don’t know who can play better when they face off today?”

The biggest gimmick in today's game is Qin Hao vs. Griffin. In the eyes of many fans, this is the "best rookie battle".

Suddenly, the auditorium became noisy.

Players from both sides came on the field. The visiting team came first, and the 76ers came out of the player tunnel one after another, greeted with boos from the home fans.

However, there are also some fans of the 76ers, especially Qin Hao's fans, many of whom are Chinese settled in the Los Angeles area, and they are cheering for Qin Hao.

In the hearts of Chinese Americans, Yao Ming naturally occupies an important position, but they still like Kobe, Iverson, Durant, James, Wade and other players, because Yao Ming's playing style is too simple, not explosive enough, and not as entertaining. these players.

And Yao Ming's height of 226cm makes it difficult for ordinary people to find resonance.

Yao Ming is like a giant, with a natural sense of distance from them. They can't learn Yao Ming's skills, and they can't copy Yao Ming's playing style.

So you can often see some people imitating Kobe, Wade, Tracy McGrady and Iverson in street courts, but you rarely see anyone imitating Yao Ming.

The appearance of Qin Hao filled this defect.

Although Qin Hao's height of 198cm is still tall compared to ordinary people, in the NBA where there are so many people, this is actually a "normal height" and it is easier to be recognized by fans.

There is also Qin Hao's playing style, sharp breakthroughs, precise three-pointers, excellent passes, and explosive dunks, which always make the fans scream, and they are conquered by him and become his fans.

"Qin Hao, Qin Hao"

In the auditorium, many fans shouted Qin Hao's name.

This made the players of the 76ers very envious. Whether at home or away, no matter where he went, Qin Hao would have many fans. At least the Chinese were almost all his fans.

A moment later, the home team players came out.

Ryan Gomez, Ryan Gomez, Eric Bledsoe, DeAndre Jordan, Eric Gordon, Baron Davis, Blake Griffin.
The Clippers players played one after another, causing the audience to cheer loudly, and the loud voice echoed in the Staples Arena.

Especially Griffin, when he played, the cheers reached the peak.

From the cheers of the home fans, you can tell who is the most popular player in this arena.

Qin Hao looked at the Clippers players and exchanged glances with Griffin. He felt a fierce fighting spirit in each other's eyes. Obviously, Griffin also regarded him as his biggest competitor.

Among a group of players, Qin Hao also saw an acquaintance - Eric Bledsoe.

In the ncaa finals, Syracuse University vs. University of Kentucky, Bledsoe was a member of the University of Kentucky, and he was teammates with Wall and Cousins.

Bledsoe also participated in the draft this year, and was finally selected by the Thunder with the 18th pick in the first round, but was then traded to the Clippers.
