The NBA begins with blowing up Wade

Chapter 84 084 Those silent geniuses, prepare to shine again!

In the past few days, Guan Yu has been in the limelight for a while!
In addition to becoming a well-deserved platoon in the 10th session, the momentum of the 09 players was also suppressed by him alone.

The results of the rookie challenge show that, at least in terms of fan support and attention, Guan Yu has blown away all other first-year and second-year players.

Then, Guan Yu was also a little happy to find that when his strength was recognized and his popularity reached such a terrifying level, he seemed to be able to make more voices and was recognized by more people.

As a result, his ultimate mission of hard work in the 09 No. [-] Cannon also ushered in a turning point.

For example, during the warm-up shooting before the game against the Pistons on February 2, Monroe, the No. 6 pick in the 10th season, took the initiative to come to Guan Yu and greet him.

"Hey Kwan, congratulations on making an All-Star starter, that's quite an achievement!
Our 10th is proud of you. "

Guan Yu was really embarrassed to hear Monroe say that.

Because he was born as an undrafted rookie, he is not very familiar with the other 10th rookies, and he has not integrated into their small group...

But obviously, after Guan Yu became popular, there are indeed 10 rookies and honors.

Originally, when Guan Yu was just born, those 10th rookies might be jealous that Guan Yu had such a good opportunity and played such a wonderful game.

However, when Guan Yu became more and more popular, the popularity reached a height that they alone could not reach, most of the 10th rookies should be like Monroe who can only look up.

There is only admiration left!
Because, at this time, jealousy is meaningless.

They are really not the same level of players anymore.

Of course, there will also be players like Wall who want to compete with Guan Yu.

However, it is a minority after all.

Guan Yu quickly figured it out, and replied with a smile on his face,
"Thanks, Greg (Monroe).

In fact, your performance is also very good, but you lack a chance to express yourself.

After all, the city of Detroit was a bit dimmed. "

Hearing this, Monroe nodded violently.

In fact, if he had a choice, he really didn't want to go to the backward "Steel City". It's fine if the ball market is small and the fans are still irritable...

And, he hasn't received that much attention from the head coach, otherwise Monroe feels that even if he won't be popular all over the world like Guan Yu, he will definitely be able to be much better than the current situation.

In fact, Monroe's thinking is very normal. You must know that the beautiful domestic rookies who can enter the NBA are all "geniuses" who have grown up from junior high school, high school, and university by abusing other geniuses.

Almost everyone is very confident!
For example, he became famous all over the country in high school, and he is known as one of the best inside talents in the beautiful country!
So Guan Yu's words really entered his heart.

After seeing Monroe's reaction, Guan Yu continued,
"You can do all fours, you're good with the ball, you're good in the low post, and you're a great passer!
Now, I have a gigantic stage here, and a chance to make you famous. Are you interested? "

Guan Yu said after blowing wildly.

Cough cough, it’s not really bragging, it’s just a reasonable artistic process based on facts!
Moreover, according to his plan, if it succeeds, Monroe can really fly!
"Interested, very interested, what is the opportunity?"

Monroe did not hide his desire, and said to Guan Yu anxiously.

'It's been half a season, it's been half a season, is my chance for Monroe finally coming?

I waited so long, not to prove how great I am, just to tell others that I didn't get something, not because I didn't have the strength! '

Looking at Monroe who was fully in the state, Guan Yu nodded in satisfaction and said,
"Hey, you know, the Rookie Challenge will be held here soon, when the time comes..."

To make a long story short, Guan Yu briefly described to Monroe his plan to prepare for the 09 Rookie Challenge.

Guan Yu knows that there are many things he can't say to the guy like Cousins ​​who may expose himself at any time, but to someone like Monroe, he must be convinced.

Only for your own use!
After hearing about Guan Yu's plan, Monroe's first reaction was what's going on?
After all, the first-year team has lost to the second-year team for eight consecutive years, and the 09 class is still so strong, there is almost no chance of winning!
Guan Yu looked at Monroe's deep frown and yelled in his heart that it was not good.

Is this good combat power going to waste?

I'm afraid the young man thinks I'm crazy, right?
As a result, Monroe's eyes were suddenly filled with fiery flames, and he said excitedly to Guan Yuyu,

"What a crazy plan, just listening to it makes my blood boil!
Guan, as expected of you!
No, it should be you who have the courage to propose such a crazy plan!
However, I like it!
A rookie in the 09 class, but he entered the league a year earlier than us.

I feel that as long as we follow your plan, we really have a chance!
Don't worry, I will support you unswervingly!"

"Thank you Greg, I won't let you down!
Prepare well and get ready to shine in the world! "

Guan Yu bumped fists with Monroe, and then watched the younger brother he had just recruited return to the Pistons halftime as if stepping on the BGM.

'Hey, it's getting more and more interesting!'

Guan Yu licked his lips, and thought after a flash of light in his eyes.

After plotting openly with Monroe, Guan Yu began to focus on the game.

In fact, Guan Yu has always liked the games against these high-ranking players.

Because the higher the picks of these rookies, the weaker the strength of their teams is basically, and it is easy to play.

For example, this night, the Clippers quickly took the lead against the Pistons.

This is far from the Pistons with the "Bad Boys" or "Five Tigers" many years ago.

In fact, the current Pistons are quite fat, and have become the target of many teams to score records and players to score points.

As a result, the fans couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

While the other Clippers players were scrambling for statistics, Guan Yu continued to repeat himself as a running position like a handsome man—even if he had no chance to attack.

"My idol is so handsome!
To be honest, facing this kind of rubbish team, I can't arouse my interest in collecting statistics!"

Barkley changed his way of blowing,

"Honestly, when a rookie just becomes an All-Star starter, he's usually excited and wants to perform and prove himself.

But my idol is different, he is still patiently polishing his off-ball running skills.

This scene should be recorded and photographed on the faces of those so-called experts for them to see.

The reason why Guan was able to achieve the current results is not by mouth. "

Kenny Smith did not refute, but explained from another angle,

"Indeed, in my opinion, Guan Yu's mental quality is more worthy of learning from other players than his skills.

Don't be arrogant or impetuous when playing with the wind, and don't brush the data.

When playing against the wind, who can give up to me, and have the courage to take responsibility.

This is also the reason why he can be loved by so many fans. "

On the court, Guan Yu actually didn't think that much.

The defender he faced today was 'Old Prince' Prince.

Although he is old, this one of the former "Piston Five Tigers" still has the defense of the outside line, which makes Guan Yu very uncomfortable.

Compared with Guan Yu, other Clippers players do have better offensive opportunities, coupled with the fact that the team has always been ahead, this is actually the real reason why Guan Yu did not attack.

On the bench of the Pistons, Monroe looked thoughtfully at Guan Yu, who was stern in offense but seemed to have everything in his hands.

This is the so-called leadership temperament, right?
As long as you play, even if you don't score or get statistics, you can still make the situation of the game develop in a direction that favors your side!

Monroe was observing Guan Yu, why didn't Guan Yu observe this big guy when he was sitting on the bench.

Just like what Guan Yu learned before, this big guy's defense... is indeed hard to describe.

The defense against the No. [-] position is slow, and the defense against the No. [-] position is not tall enough.

In fact, this is also a common problem of many rookies.

Their previous versatility in the NCAA is likely to become a disadvantage in the NBA...

Being able to be four and being able to be five has also become no four and no five.

Monroe does have advantages, though.

His dribbling is definitely the best among the centers!
Coupled with his excellent passing vision and passing skills, Guan Yu's plan to beat the 09 class has been improved a lot.

A big man who can support him will have a lot more ways to play.

Because the Clippers' substitute habitually stretched their hips a bit, Guan Yu and the others spent a little more time, and then managed to get the game over without any risk.

"Guan, with you here, I feel like we can really beat those second-year players."

During the handshake ceremony after the game, Monroe said to Guan Yu excitedly.

Guan Yu thought about his not-so-glamorous performance today, and he didn't know how to impress this big man, so he replied humbly and ambiguously,

"Not only me, but you have to work hard too!
Get ready for that day, as long as we all work together, those second-year players aren't invincible! "

"Well, I will prepare well!"

Looking at Monroe whose eyes were shining with infinite light, Guan Yu nodded in satisfaction.

With this little brother, the hope of defeating the 09 class has increased by one point.

But Guan Yu was not complacent either.

After all, now that he is full of players and there are only four of them, the possibility of defeating the 09 class is far from high!

On February 2, the Clippers played back-to-back games against the Nets at home.

Although it was a home game, everyone in the Clippers did not have too much pressure, because the Nets were also a big team.

The Nets had a good time in the past few years. The "troika" composed of Kidd, Carter and Richard Jefferson even became the most popular combination in the NBA at that time.

It's just a pity that their game performance has been tepid, and even plummeted later, which disappointed the fans.

For example, last season, they had a losing streak at the beginning of the season, and they won by 19 points until the No. 6 Bobcats who met Jordan were warmed up.

The [-]-game losing streak in the opening season also set a record for the worst opening season since the establishment of the NBA.

However, after the Nets completely screwed up and played the worst record in the league, they seemed to have blasphemed the gods of basketball. In the end, they failed to get the No. [-] pick and only got the No. [-] pick.

They also missed John Wall and could only choose Derek Favors.

I have impressions of Favors and Guan Yu, but that's just my impressions. I really don't know much about this guy.

But after a brief understanding, Guan Yu found that this guy was once an extremely shining genius.

Unstoppable in high school, scored 39 points and 21 rebounds to lead the team to the state championship;

In 09, he was named the No. [-] high school student in the United States by Qiutan.com, and the second among the top [-] high school students by ESPN;
Selected as the best team of McDonald's, and led the team to win and was elected as the MVP;

After arriving at university, she still shined brightly, and was finally selected as Tanhua.

It can be said that Favors is a typical talented player in the beautiful country.

It's just a pity that his story didn't continue to flourish all the way. In other words, this young and famous guy got lost when he came to the NBA, a place full of talents. Currently, he only averages 6.1 points and 5.8 rebounds per game.

Even Monroe can't match him, who averaged 9.6 points and 7.2 rebounds per game anyway.

Guan Yu thought about it, and took the initiative to find Favors before the game with the idea that everyone has come.

So what, although Guan Yu doesn't like this method, but in order to improve his strength, he doesn't feel embarrassed...

"Hey Derek, hello."

"Hey, Guan, hello."

Although some monk Zhang Er was puzzled, Favors responded quickly.

If it was at the beginning of the game, facing Guan Yu, the undrafted call, he, the proud man of heaven, might dismiss it.

But after half a season of reality baptism and role changes, Favors is very clear that Guan Yu, who used to be a younger brother in front of him, has grown into an existence he needs to look up to.

Considering Guan Yu's terrifying popularity, it's good that Favors can remain neither humble nor overbearing.

You must know that there are not many people who can have a good relationship with Guan Yu.

"I will be a teammate in the All-Star Rookie Challenge in the near future, and then everyone will have a good time.

In fact, I have always admired your low-post singles, and now there are not many people who value this skill in the league. "

Hearing what Guan Yu said, Favors's eyes lit up instantly.

He has always been proud of his low-post skills, but his coach seems to look down on Yazi, and even criticizes him for not being efficient enough.

"That's right, insiders should sit and play.

I really like the feeling of destroying opponents in the low post, it's so cool! "

Nets coach Avery Johnson would definitely roll his eyes when he heard Favors' words.

Destroy the opponent?

Are you sure it wasn't destroyed by the opponent?
cool?

It means that it is very cool to be taken.

"I've seen highlights of your college days, your low post offense is really fierce!
At that time, you can show it in front of fans all over the world in the Rookie Challenge. "

Favors' eyes lit up again, and then seemed to dim a bit when he remembered something.

"However, my coach always said that my low post game is very ineffective..."

"No, no, that's why he didn't realize how great you are. Believe me, you will definitely surprise other people by then!"

"really?"

Favors asked, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Yes, trust me!
In addition to low-post singles, I think your rebounding and defense can also be well displayed.

You were once the number one high school student! "

Hearing this, Favors had a domineering arrogance,

"That's right!
I am no worse than anyone! "
