Chapter 79
In the 11-12 season, the first game of the Sacramento Kings was about to start. In front of the bench, Tyreke gathered all his teammates together, bent down and raised one hand in the air, "The first game of the new season is about to start, take it ! Let's shake the league up for us this season!"

Cousins, Whiteside, Jimmy Butler, Casspi, West, Caron Butler, all of them raised their fists and gathered in the air. Tyreke encouraged with his voice: " Everyone! Let's go!"

"Come on! Come on! Come on!" When everyone dispersed, the five starters also stepped onto the field.
Amidst the roar of the audience, Howard and Cousins ​​jumped the ball in the middle circle, and the game officially started!
The Magic took the lead to get the ball. Nelson held the ball for half the court. Facing Tyreke who was defending him, Tyreke scored 51 points on his head last season and I still remember it. Nelson frowned unconsciously. .

And Tyreke, who is in the defensive position at the moment, can't help but sigh with emotion. Last season officially started against the Orlando Magic. He officially let go of his injury and just played on the court. There is also the big brother Gilbert Arenas who constantly encourages himself and trains with him during the offseason. Half a month ago, Arenas was waived by the Magic using the amnesty clause. There is no trace of him anymore.
Nelson is also a tough guy with a heart. Last time he was beaten by Tyreke both offensively and defensively. This time he still dared to fight hard. Nelson started dribbling and went to the right side of Tyreke. Nelson has more than one level. Nelson could not do it last season with a strong frontal confrontation with Tyreke, and this season he is one year older, and he can't do it even more. It doesn't take a heart to make up for the gap in physical fitness between the two.

At this time, Ryan Anderson had already pulled the ball beyond the three-point line. Nelson transferred the ball to Anderson. Anderson played mostly as a substitute last season. He averaged 22.2 minutes per game, scored 10.6 points and 5.5 rebounds, and averaged 5.3 shots per game. With three-pointers and 2.1 hits, he has already demonstrated the strength of the high turret on the outside.This season Anderson has been put on the starting lineup. The Magic believe that with Howard's strong inside containment, Anderson will definitely get more shots and at the same time create space for the inside.

Anderson received a pass from Nelson, and Anderson's tactical use was a high fort. Before West, who was facing Anderson, had time to come out from the inside, Anderson shot directly without hesitation!

Anderson's shot point was extremely high, and West, who was not fast, came to interfere with him. At this time, Anderson had left the ball and made a hollow hit!
"Wow!" There was thunderous applause from the audience. With an extremely simple cooperation, relying on the long range of Anderson, a tall shooter, he easily hit the first goal of the game!
The Kings got the ball. Udrik dribbled the ball and handed it to Tyreke after halftime. Tyreke held the ball at the top of the arc. Tyreke was not in a hurry to attack by himself. Seeing West asking for the ball at a high position, he After giving the ball to West, Tyreke believes that giving new teammates opportunities in actual combat will allow them to better integrate into the team's system.

After receiving the ball, West faced Anderson's defense, held the ball in the high position in the middle, and made a fake shot from the left side of his body. Anderson's body was drawn by West's fake action, and West took advantage of the situation to the right Moved a step sideways, and directly pulled up the mid-range shot!The movements are done in one go, the fake moves shake out the shooting space, and the mid-range shots are clean and neat!The arc of the ball is not big, but the speed of the ball is very fast, and it hits steadily!

"Pretty!"

After West scored a goal, Tyreke stepped forward and reached out to give him a high five. West's playing style is hard enough, and he is also good at mid-range distance on the one hand. There is no problem in ravaging Anderson, a big white soft player, on the offensive end.

After West scored the first goal, for two consecutive rounds, the Kings used West to end the offense. Facing Anderson, West used a shot fake to shake the gap, leaning on Anderson to step into the Strong buckle in the restricted area!Another time, West also made a fake shot, and then felt that there was not enough room for the shot, so he took a step back again, and hit Anderson's long arm with a strong mid-range shot!
At the beginning of the game, West scored 6 points in a row. Although he was 8 years older than Anderson, he easily beat Anderson without any temper.

"Matt, it seems that David West's strength is still there. He has a strong body and a tough style. The distance between the hands is really outrageous." Steele, the sideline commentator of the Magic, couldn't help sighing when he saw West's performance. .

"Signed David West for $3 million in three years. This deal was generally favored by the outside world. Several teams are willing to offer a good contract for West. The injury last season is very optimistic. Last season, the Kings' fourth position can be said to be their weak link. There was originally Carl Landry. After Landry was traded, in the second half of the schedule, The third-year Jason Thompson is the best at the fourth position. And this season, the starter has become a quasi-All-Star David West. Kenneth Faried, an athletic rookie who has never played before, has at least a strength above the league average at the 3000th position."

However, the Sacramento Kings not only have David West, another Caron Butler who joined the team for 2 million US dollars in two years also showed good form.Although Caron Butler gradually lost his speed and explosiveness due to his right knee injury last season and his age, his physical advantage began to lose, and his breakthrough ability dropped a lot, but his shooting still maintained a high level as always. A very powerful defense, even after experiencing season-ending injuries, the current strength can still support the Kings' flanks.

Caron Butler himself is very clear that after experiencing injuries last season, he can no longer rely on his body to play as much as before. The team has young star players Tyreke Evans and DeMarcus Cousins, and David West, who is still capable, as the oldest player on the team, just do what he can and guide the younger players.

In the first quarter of the game, relying on continuous movement, Caron Butler hit a three-pointer after receiving a pass from Tyreke, and after a pick-and-roll with Cousins, he received a pass from Udrik and hit a mid-range pass. Talent but relying on experience, Caron Butler still contributed his strength on the offensive end.At the same time, on the defensive end, facing Hedo Turkoglu, who is one year older than himself, Caron Butler also faced him with a positive defensive attitude. Everyone can see that, even when facing other stars On the wing, Caron Butler can also rely on his strong body and excellent defensive awareness to limit opponents to a certain extent!
