Chapter 26 Old Nelson's Madness
Chapter 26 Old Nelson's Madness
When Li Shihao learned of Curry's response, he had already flown to Oakland with the team's flight. After a few hours of flight journey, Li Shihao set foot on the land of this city for the first time .

This is San Francisco, one of the largest gathering places of Chinese Americans. There are millions of fellow elders with the same skin color and blood as him.

Li Shihao's feelings are difficult to understand, both excited and melancholy. More than 100 years ago, the Chinese ancestors traveled thousands of miles across the ocean to this strange land, and took root in the sea of ​​blond and blue-eyed people. They struggled hard here, amidst discrimination and ridicule. Working hard with one hand and one foot to create their own family business, starting a family and starting a business here, it can be said that this city has carried the blood, sweat and years of several generations of Chinese.

When driving past the Golden Gate Bridge, the landmark of the city by the bay, looking at the magnificent and beautiful night view of the city, Li Shihao developed a good impression of this strange California city for the first time in his heart, and Curry chose a good one. place!

Before the game tonight, Curry sent him an invitation. Curry found a classic Chinese restaurant in the city's Chinatown. Hearing what Curry bragged about, it must have a history of hundreds of years.

The last time I went to Nash's banquet, Li Shihao didn't call his teammate, which caused Love and the others to yell for a long time. This time when he received Curry's invitation, Li Shihao brought Love and Brewer up.

These two are the most compatible with Li Shihao in the team. The three of them don't spend much time playing together, but the chemical reaction between the three is very good.

The new season has already started more than ten days ago. The Timberwolves have recorded three wins and three losses in six regular season games. In today's fiercely competitive Western Conference, they are ranked ninth, only one game away from the eighth-ranked Thunder. This gap has surprised many experts and the media.

The Timberwolves won just 24 games last season.And at the opening of this year's new season, it showed such a good state. Although the team's initial offensive and defensive system is still a little immature, it is enough to face half of the teams in the league. The last season has improved a lot. Although the deterrence on the offensive end has declined slightly, Li Shihao can often open fire from the outside at critical moments to open up the team. This is something that has never been seen in the Timberwolves last season. arrived.

At the beginning of the new season, the young lineup of the Timberwolves has caused many teams in the league to suffer. It is slightly sharp and has an orderly offense and defense. This is the best evaluation of the Timberwolves. Kevin Love, Corey Brewer, and Li Shihao are composed of three people. The composition of the Iron Triangle caught many teams off guard.

Look at these three young men in the Timberwolves!
Kevin Love, who entered the league in 08, was selected by the Memphis with the fifth pick in the draft. Countless people laughed at the vision of the Grizzlies uniform team, and then this rookie was packaged and sent to the Minnesota, in exchange for OJ Mayo, and then countless people began to target the Timberwolves.

However, this rookie has performed impressively this season, averaging 15 points, 3 rebounds, 13 assists and a double-double. This rookie has a good shooting touch. Defensive ability, but these are not enough to reveal his special features. What really shocked the experts in the league is that 2 of the 3 rebounds per game of this white insider are offensive rebounds, nearly half The high offensive rebound rate allows the Timberwolves to have a higher fault tolerance rate when attacking.

what does this mean?
联盟技术人员统计过这赛季森林狼的攻防转换，发现凯文乐福为森林狼抓下的6。1个前场篮板里有5。7个在二次进攻后被成功转换成了实实在在的分数。也就是说，森林狼在这样的篮板能力下，凭空每场比对手多了11。4分。

This data reflects the value of Love. This ability is something that many pseudo-fans cannot see simply from the data!

Look at Corey Brewer again. He hasn't played many days. As a young player selected by the Timberwolves with the seventh overall pick in 07, he did not show the talent that a team leader should have, but he has evolved into An excellent defensive point on the front and back line, and with the running-in of the team and the continuous improvement of his personal strength, this defensive point is constantly changing towards the defensive gate.

A pair of super long arms, the speed comparable to a guard, and top jumping, when these are gathered on Corey Brewer, a young wing defender was born.

These outstanding innate physical conditions are enough to allow his defensive range to easily cover the offensive methods of most of the league's top forwards and guards.

In addition, Brewer is also an excellent fast-break counterattacker. He can fast-forward and counterattack with Li Shihao at the first time when the opponent makes a mistake, quickly causing a lightning fast break!

And Li Shihao's strength in the new season should not be underestimated. The first-line point guard's organizational ability, stable mid-range shooting, and high-efficiency breakthrough ability are an excellent dark horse emerging from this year's rookies. .

The stable triangle composed of three people has greatly threatened the offensive and defensive system established by the Timberwolves. As the regular season schedule gradually deepens, the cooperation between the three people will be even better. I believe that even if they meet the top players in the league in the future The strong team also has the power to compete!
The three people who cooperate with each other more and more tacitly on the court make their relationship off the court very harmonious. Although they have not been together for a long time, the personalities of the three are not compatible with attributes such as deep and restrained. After being together for a long time, their respective temperaments are different. I can feel it clearly.

Le Fu belongs to the kind who is thick-backed and has a simple and honest appearance, but he has a very turbulent heart in his heart. This kid has always wanted to become famous and publish a photo album. The red one has always wanted to use this trick to capture Hollywood. The soul of the new generation of goddesses.

And Brewer is more honest. This kid's sincere and down-to-earth style of play on the court has been perfectly carried over to life. Temperamental Portland lad.

This time Curry invited Li Shihao to bring Love and Curry with him. In order to get to the restaurant quickly, the three of them took a taxi in the city center and went straight to the location. When they arrived, Curry and Aye had already arrived. Sarah Alexander is sitting there.

Seeing Li Shihao and Love arriving, Curry stood up with a smile and invited everyone to sit down.

Ayesha on the side was not idle either, with a sweet smile on her delicate face: "Bruce, I arrived so soon, there are still more than ten minutes before the appointed time!"

Li Shihao smiled when he heard the words, and said, "How dare Curry invite me to be late, let alone Ayesha, if you keep you waiting for a long time, it would be too ungentlemanly!"

Ayesha pursed her lips and smiled when she heard the words, and looked at Curry with an indelible sweetness in her eyes.

The two of them are old lovers, and their hometowns are in Charlotte. They have been lovers since college, and their relationship is very deep until now!
Le Fu exclaimed, winked at Curry and said, "Stephen, you really are a cute boy, such a beautiful girl is attracted by you!" He sighed, quite sad look.

Ayesha smiled slightly, and when she heard Le Fu looking at herself in pity, she said, "Kevin, if you want to find a good girl, it's not easy, and there are many good girls around me!"

Le Fu's eyes lit up, and his heart moved: "Oh? Really?"

Curry nodded with a smile: "Ayesha knows a lot of beauties. If it weren't for Ayesha being the only one in my heart, I might go after her too!"

Ayesha gave Curry a white look, her eyes were charming, and then said: "Kevin, the girls I introduced to you are all good girls. They are not only beautiful, but also have unique personalities!"

Hearing this, Corey Brewer was also a little curious. These days, girls with individuality and beauty are the goddesses. He doesn't pay much attention to appearance, and he still likes girls with unique personalities.

"However, if you want me to introduce you, you have to consider a suggestion!"

Love and Brewer looked at each other, a little puzzled, unable to guess what Curry's girlfriend was selling.

Ayesha pursed her lips and said with a smile: "You have a few years left on your rookie contract. You can consider coming to Oakland. Not only are there more good girls here, but as a California city, the exposure and salary will be much higher."

Li Shihao was startled when he heard the words, and then smiled and said: "Ayesha, you are thinking about Curry now, so you can't poach my corner!"

Love and Brewer also smiled, and declined Ayesha's suggestion. The three of them have just formed a combination, but they have already shown impressive power. Although the Timberwolves are a small city, their lineup may not be enough. Can't rise!
Curry and Ayesha didn't force it either. The Golden State Warriors are now completely trying to overthrow and rebuild, and the Warriors coach Nelson has completely expressed his determination to rebuild, releasing news: "Except for Stephen Curry, there is nothing It cannot be traded!"

It can be said that the Warriors still have a long way to go. If they want to fight their way out in the western part of the arms race, they still need to wait the test of time.

However, Curry's future in the Warriors is undoubtedly extremely bright!
Li Shihao, as a good friend who met Curry in high school, is naturally very aware of Curry's strength. He is also looking forward to what such a talented point guard will become under the guidance of "mad scientist" Nelson in the future!

Old Nelson, as the coach of thousands of victories in the league, has a high prestige in the American basketball world. Many famous point guards in the league are trained by him, such as Tim Hardaway, Nash, and "bearded" Davis.

Li Shihao also looks forward to what Curry will be like!
Curry suddenly looked serious, and whispered to Li Shihao: "Bruce, do you know that Tang once wanted to get the Timberwolves draft pick through a trade, and draft you and me at the same time in the draft!"

Li Shihao paused when he heard the words, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes!
Don Nelson was interested in him!
