Chapter 523 Roy
Before the opening game of the 2006-2007 NBA regular season, Garnett, the head player of the Timberwolves, was absent from the opening game due to food poisoning.

Garnett's absence is bound to affect the night's game, which was a collective appearance for the Timberwolves, their first game of the season.

They are another team after the Lakers that is sprinting for three consecutive championships, and everyone is looking forward to their performance.

As a minority shareholder of the team, Jordan came to the scene in person.Although Jordan has not yet become a major shareholder, there are rumors that he has always wanted to acquire the Bobcats.

The boss values ​​his reputation and entrusts him with running the team.

However, in the past two years, the team has been unable to make ends meet and has always been at a loss.

Hearing the news of Garnett's absence, Jordan laughed for a long time, "This shows that we have a great chance today, and it is possible to pull down the mighty Timberwolves."

Before the game, the Target Center held a championship flag raising ceremony and a championship ring distribution ceremony.

Under the dim light, all members of the Timberwolves looked up at the top of their heads, watching the second championship flag slowly rise from below, rising to the highest sky, and freeze-the 2005-2006 championship Minnesota Timberwolves.

The applause was like thunder, and countless people were applauding.

The subsequent ring distribution ceremony was much simpler, and Stern distributed the rings one by one.

Before the game started, Bai Jidong walked over to Bobcats' bench to say hello to Jordan: "Mike, watch carefully, I'm not joking when I say 60 points."

"Don't look at me, I'm old, if you want to score 60 points, it depends on whether the lions around me agree or not."

Wearing sunglasses and a black sweater, Jordan looked determined to win.

Bai Jidong looked left and right, and Gerald Wallace walked towards him, "White Wolf, I won't let you get 60 points even if I run away!"

"You are not qualified to say that based on your defense."

Bai Jidong left these words behind and walked back to the court.

The young Brandon Roy watched all this silently, watching the conversation between the stalwart man and the god in his mind.

His hands were shaking. The meaning of the regular season is completely different from the preseason. Only those who have played the regular season can tell everyone with their heads held high: "I am an NBA player."

Now, Roy is ushering in his NBA debut, and his opponent is the king of the league today, the Timberwolves who have won two consecutive championships.

There are young and powerful generals in their formation, as well as newcomers with unlimited potential.

Standing in front of them was the white wolf who ruled this era, and the bloodthirsty pack of wolves behind him.

Emeka Okafor jumped to get the ball for the Bobcats.It was Blevin Knight who took control of the ball.

Some people say that if Knight can grow ten centimeters taller, he will be a strong contender for MVP.

That might sound exaggerated, and there's nothing wrong with it, because it's hard to find another player of his size at 1'78" ([-]m).

Regardless of Knight's short stature, this made his start more rapid. After one step, Ukic lost his position.

When Knight rushed to the basket and was surrounded by Olowokandi, the disadvantage brought by his height made him choose to pass the ball.

Elvis Wallace gets the ball on the outside.Looking at Gerald Wallace's game, Bai Jidong saw the shadow of Pippen in him.

His inexhaustible passion made Bai Jidong see Garnett's charm again.

He's the only true star on the Bobcats, and he's doing his best to make this team better.

A group of players with amazing potential has ushered in by his side, and he wants to lead this group of talents to take off.

Wallace tried to shoot a three-pointer from the outside and missed.

Roy started his NBA career with an offensive rebound, which he grabbed from behind Olowokandi.

Without waiting for others to react, Roy opened his hand and shot, hitting the first ball of the night for the Bobcats.

Bai Jidong took a few glances at him, because Jordan gave up picking Gay with the third overall pick because of him.

"The shooting is good, and the reaction is fast." Bai Jidong turned to Olowokandi and said, "You were rebounded by a guard, Olo, I am very disappointed in you."

Olowokandi said excitedly: "Give me another chance, and I will definitely prove that I am the most useful man in the number one fraternity!"

Weber next to him patted him, "Unless I die, you can only compete for second place."

"Little boy, how is your body recovering?" Bai Jidong and Weber ran across the halftime together.

Weber said, "Hey, old Kevin's way works."

Bai Jidong smiled and said, "Looks like I can use your strength to get a few assists?"

Weber said confidently: "Just pass the ball to me, as long as you dare to feed me the ball, I promise to put it in the basket."

Webber averaged close to 76+20 per game with the 10ers last season.

That was his last peak, and he had another offseason surgery that took away all his athleticism.

Now he can only play as a substitute. If it weren't for Garnett's inability to play, Casey couldn't think of plan B for a while, and he wouldn't be able to start tonight.

Ukic didn't occupy the ball, he gave the ball to Bai Jidong first, and squatted in the bottom corner to wait for the opportunity.

Knight is relieved that his length gives him sheer speed while inevitably making him a black hole on the defensive end.

Opponents usually play space from him. Knight is a strong person. He is unwilling to expose his weaknesses to others, so he always tries his best on the defensive end.

Bai Jidong had already greeted Weber before, and it was only natural for him to cooperate.

Weber shifted into gear and turned down.

Bai Jidong found the right position and passed the ball with a snap.

Webber catches the ball. Although he has lost his athletic ability at his peak, his small skills are still beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Weber released the ball, dodged Elvis Presley who flew out to steal the ball, and then used his broad body to catch Okafor who was waiting for an opportunity to block the ball. He made a reverse basket with his left hand and scored with a cricket.

In just one offensive round, Weber demonstrated his comprehensive skills, the accuracy of inside cuts, the technical diversity in dealing with assisted defense, and his outstanding touch.

Few insiders can layup with such a posture, it looks too awkward.

"Gerald, your newcomer seems to be very powerful." Bai Jidong said to Elvis.

Wallace snorted coldly: "Sooner or later, Brandon will kick you off the throne!"

Bai Jidong was surprised: "Really? Then I have to give him a gift, otherwise when he sits on the throne, he won't remember my name."

Bai Jidong's meeting gift to Roy was stealing.

As soon as Roy received the ball, Bai Jidong attacked from behind and stabbed his ball away.

Roy fell down while trying to save the ball, but Bai Jidong picked it up and counterattacked for a dunk.

Hearing the screams from the audience, Bai Jidong deliberately looked at Jordan and stretched out two fingers, "Mike, this ball is for you!"

"Brandon, don't worry, that guy is like this." Wallace comforted the younger brother in a good voice.

Roy showed a faint smile, "The white wolf is really powerful, I didn't even realize he was behind me."

Wallace sighed: "My fault, he was too fast."

Roy knows what an outstanding player Wallace is. Even Wallace complains about Bai Jidong's speed. How fast is that?Faster than Knight?
Roy didn't think too much, he responded to Bai Jidong in the next offensive round.

Battier couldn't imagine that this was a rookie playing the regular season for the first time. His offense didn't look immature at all, with comprehensive means and mature skills, and he didn't have the slightest stage fright against a veteran like him.

Battier's defense did not keep pace with Roy.I saw Roy striding, invading the paint area and scoring a throw.

"Xiao En, how is that child?" Bai Jidong asked.

Battier's face was ugly. He was scored consecutively by a rookie, but he had to admit Roy's strength.

"His technique is very good and he has a complete skill set. As expected of an older rookie, he already has a strong immediate combat power."

Hearing such a high evaluation, Bai Jidong was not surprised.

Judging from the few rounds just now, Roy's offensive skills are very comprehensive, and he has a set of breakthroughs with the ball and emergency stop jump shots.

This is an outside core embryo who really deserves the third pick.

Brandon Roy.

Bai Jidong remembered this name ever since.
