NBA: I haven't played a game but I'm full of talent

Ling Xinrong and his wife chose to fly directly back to China from Houston, while Ling Yang returned to Phoenix with Nash and Marion after seeing off his parents.

According to the NbA schedule, the All-Star weekend is three days, but there are no games in the two days before and after.

The Suns, on the other hand, will have their first game after the All-Star Weekend two days later.

There was no match, but Ling Yang and others met someone who surprised them in the second day's training.

Stoudemire appeared on the training ground.

When Stoudemire appeared, Ling Yang found that Nash had light in his eyes. Obviously, as another All-Star of the team, if Stoudemire can return to the team, it will undoubtedly be even more powerful for the Suns.

This season has played 50 games. In the previous games, Nash has been leading the team forward, but his goal this season is obviously not just to play the regular season.

"Amare has been training with the team during the All-Star Weekend. He will try again in today's game. If he feels good, he may return to the game in the next game."

D'Antoni said with a smile on his face.

The team general is expected to come back, which is of course a happy thing for the head coach.

On the side, the team's chief team doctor Thomas Carter said:

"We still need to evaluate, so Mike, Amare must be controlled within 20 minutes, whether it is training or competition time."

"Okay." D'Antoni responded immediately. At this time, even the coach has to listen to the team doctor.

Standing aside, Ling Yang looked at the excited Stoudemire, but was a little puzzled. Is Stoudemire all right?

In my impression, Stoudemire's injury in the previous life almost missed the entire season.

It seems that I made a comeback for a few games in the middle, but I felt unwell and continued to truce.

What now?

Ling Yang couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

At this time, Ling Yang also saw Kurt Thomas, is he coming back soon?

Just when Ling Yang was thinking this way, Carter had already spoken again.

"Kurt can also participate in training today, but he needs to rest for another five days to enter the official competition list."

"That's great!" Nash, the boss of the team, couldn't help shouting directly at this time.

After entering the All-Star Weekend, he has officially entered the battle for record rankings and preparations for the playoffs. At this time, the staff can be organized, which makes Nash very excited.

The return of the two main players of the team made the atmosphere of the entire Suns team very good. After warming up with everyone talking and laughing, D'Antoni began to organize everyone to conduct confrontation training within the team.

Standing on the sidelines, D'Antoni said: "Amare and Kurt have been away from the court for a while, so Steve, you need to help them find more sense of the game."

Nash responded immediately: "Okay, coach!"

D'Antoni's words have also clarified the team's lineup. Stoudemire and Thomas need to partner with Nash to find the feeling, so both of them entered the starting team.

...So, Ling Yang and Dior entered the substitute lineup accordingly.

In this way, the Suns formed a lineup of starting center Thomas, power forward Stoudemire, small forward Marion, shooting guard Bell, and point guard Nash.

As for the substitutes, Dior, Ling Yang, Jones, House and Barbosa.

In the team training match, winning or losing is not that important, the key is to achieve the effect of training.

And this time in the team training game, the task is to help Thomas and Stoudemire find the feeling of the game and adjust the starting lineup.

But during the game, Ling Yang also noticed that maybe Stoudemire didn't feel very good after being away from the game for too long.

Although Stoudemire's offensive desire is very high, Nash also keeps feeding him the ball, and Ling Yang doesn't even put out [-]% energy when defending, but Stoudemire's offensive efficiency is not high .

Of course, this is mainly related to Stoudemire's style of play.

Because he has just returned to the game after all, the team doctor also suggested that he try to keep his playing on the court as much as possible to avoid too fierce confrontation.

So after the whole training, Stoudemire spent very little time attacking the basket, and more often shot in the middle distance.

On the offensive end, Stoudemire was barely able to keep up with Ling Yang's footsteps on the defensive end.

It can be seen that Stoudemire's movement is still affected to some extent, and Ling Yang is known for his fast movement speed. It is naturally very difficult for Stoudemire to keep up.

In contrast, Kurt Thomas is in a better state. His movement on the court and his performance in all aspects are closer to those before his injury.

Of course, not only Ling Yang saw this situation, but also Thomas Carter and Mike D'Antoni on the sidelines.

"Mike, Amare's situation doesn't look very good. In the game, I suggest that the playing time should be further reduced to 15 minutes."

Thomas Carter said to D'Antoni at this time, "And in the game, I don't recommend him to play the center position and have too much physical confrontation with the opponent's big center."

After D'Antoni listened, he nodded to indicate that he would grasp it.

After the day's training was over, the Suns team came to Miami the next day. In the first game after the All-Star Game, the opponent the Suns needed to face was the Miami Heat who had risen after O'Neal joined the East Tour.

The Heat finished second in the Eastern Conference last season, all the way to the Finals, and fought the Pistons in 7 games, and finally failed to reach the Finals by 6 points.

After the start of the new season, the outside world's evaluation and expectations for the Heat are not too high.

After all, O'Neal is one year older, and his state has declined significantly compared to his peak period.

Especially after the start of the new season, the Pistons have been advancing all the way, and the Cavaliers are also emerging. In contrast, although the Heat are ranked third in the Eastern Conference, they don't look that strong.

Moreover, O'Neal also missed a lot of time due to injuries and rotations after the start of the game.

But as a reborn person, Ling Yang knows how powerful this season's heat is, and it gets better and worse as it progresses to the later stage, whether it's the regular season or the playoffs.

When the game came to this month, the teams before and after the All-Stars began to gradually look for the state of the playoffs. The Cavaliers were a little behind at this time, while the Heat played better and better.

... At present, the Heat have surpassed the Cavaliers to occupy the second place in the Eastern Conference.

Because Stoudemire started this game, and it is impossible for him to play center against O'Neal, so in this game, the Suns ranked center Diaw, power forward Stoudemire, small forward Marion, shooting guard- The lineup of Bell and point guard Nash.

Ling Yang sat on the bench for the first time after starting for more than two months.

Sitting on the sidelines watching the Heat's starting lineup, Ling Yang also lamented at this time that it was not unreasonable for the previous Heat to defeat the Pistons in the Eastern Conference this season to enter the finals and finally win the championship.

The strength of the starting five is outstanding, and it goes without saying that Wade and O'Neal are two All-Star superstars. Although O'Neal may have declined compared to last season, Wade has become more mature this season.

O'Neal's deterrent power on the court is still there.

Power forward Haslem joined the Heat in 03 with Wade as an undrafted pick. Although he didn't look good on the court, he averaged 10.9 points and 9.1 rebounds per game last season.

And the style of play is very tough, and he dares to confront on the defensive end.

This is a very good addition to O'Neal, who has entered the later stages of his career.

James Posey is a very functional 3D player. White Chocolate Williams may no longer be as elegant and chic as the Kings, but his passing skills are still there, and his playing is more stable.

At the same time, on the Heat's bench, the tough guys Aaron Mourning and Gary Payton are both experienced, and they can often play to help the team on the court, especially on the defensive end, even better than the two starters. The defense is even better.

The Heat's bench also has Antoma Walker, a character who was once selected as an All-Star for his outstanding offensive ability, who can stand up and provide firepower for the Heat when the starting firepower is insufficient.

Although the whole team seems to be a little older, the configuration is really excellent.

The two teams jumped the ball, O'Neal beat Diaw to help the Heat get the ball, and the Heat took the lead in attacking

In the first round, O'Neal gave the Suns a blow.

In the three-second zone, O'Neal received Wade's pass after taking the position, and hit Dior hard.

The difference in height, weight, and strength between the two was too great. Dior was pushed away by O'Neal almost without any power to fight back.

Then, the big shark swore its territorial sovereignty with a heavy dunk with both hands.

At the other end, Nash and Stoudemire played a pick-and-roll cooperation. Stoudemire, who had just returned from injury, did not go to kill the Heat inside, but just floated outside to cast one.

However, Stoudemire's touch is good, and the first ball is also a steady hit.

However, this offensive routine of the Suns was quickly seen through by the Heat. After realizing that Stoudemire did not dare to go to the basket for physical confrontation, Haslem decisively chose to stick to the defense.

So in the next few rounds, Stoudemire once again received a pass from Nash in the middle distance, but did not find such an open shot.

However, Stoudemire, who had just come back, was obviously eager to prove his status. Even in the face of Haslem's defense, he still chose strong shots, and then continued to hit the iron.

... After Stoudemire missed two consecutive shots, D'Antoni frowned slightly on the sidelines. Such an attack completely disrupted the Suns' offensive rhythm.

It's been 2 minutes since the start. Except for Stoudemire's first 2-pointer, the Suns didn't score.

On the other hand, the Heat at the other end are mainly attacking O'Neal inside and have already scored 8 points.

Fortunately, the experienced Nash immediately realized the problem, so in the next round, Nash used his scoring to help the team stabilize the situation.

And taking advantage of the first official timeout in more than 3 minutes, D'Antoni chose to replace Stoudemire.

On the one hand, Stoudemire should indeed be restricted in playing time. On the other hand, D'Antoni also hopes to make Stoudemire less impatient.

Ling Yang returned to the court, and Sun also returned to the way he played before the All-Star Game.

Ling Yang, who had just played, made a contribution immediately, completing a dunk in the paint.

But D'Antoni soon discovered that he really couldn't beat it.

O'Neal's state today is too good, and in the Suns, there is not even a player who can defend.

Kurt Thomas, who is good at low-post defense, has not yet come back. Neither Diaw nor Bert Burke can stop O'Neal, a giant.

Even after Ling Yang came on the court, he was able to help defend frequently, but after the whole game, the sun's inside line was completely blown out.

Although O'Neal can't be said to have returned to the top this night, he did play in an excellent state and overwhelmed the Suns inside.

In the whole game, O'Neal scored 27 points and 11 rebounds.

O'Neal held back the Suns' defense, and Wade also showed his All-Star strength, scoring 30 points.

Facing the collective explosion of the Heat's two All-Stars, the Suns are a little weaker.

Stoudemire's performance in the first game after his comeback was mediocre, but the number of shots was still enough, so he also scored 8 points in this game.

Nash had 17 points and 12 assists, and Marion had 20 points and 12 rebounds.

Ling Yang also got a double-double, but in this game, facing O'Neal and Mourning, two top centers even if they were not at their peak, his performance in the interior was still affected, and he could barely score 10 points and 10 rebounds. .

Of course, the low data does have something to do with him being on the bench and only playing 26 minutes in this game.

94:101, the Suns lost to the Heat in an away game, failing to continue the winning streak before the All-Star Game.

Thinking of another Heat game at the beginning of next month, the Suns miss Kurt Thomas a little bit.

After all, although Kurt Thomas doesn't look very huge, his low-post defense is still very good.

Lost a game, but after all, it was just a game, and it was only the starting game of Stoudemire's comeback, so the Suns didn't take it too seriously.

D'Antoni had a good chat with Stoudemire after the game, so in the next game, Stoudemire played a lot better.

In the game against the Bobcats, Kurt Thomas was still unable to play. The center position was still played by Diaw, and Stoudemire continued to play the power forward position, followed by Marion, Bell, and Nash.

….There is a difference in the strength of the two teams, but the first half of the game was indeed a bit twists and turns, and the offensive rhythm of the whole team was not particularly good.

At the end of the first half, the Suns even trailed by 50 points 46:4.

However, after the second half, the Suns quickly adjusted. In the end, the score of the two teams was fixed at 94:103, and the Suns won the game with a 9-point advantage at home.

In the arrangement of playing time, Stoudemire got 15 minutes, which were scattered in the first three quarters.

However, Stoudemire was basically able to get the right to shoot when he was on the court, so he still scored in double figures.

凌阳这场比赛的上场时间也有提升，全场比赛仍然获得了接近30分钟的时间，并且拿下了12分12个篮板3次抢断1次封盖的表现。

Leaving from Charlotte, at the same time, the sun has only the last game of the month, the Houston Rockets.

This is another game that is very popular among Huaxia fans, but the fans are a little regretful that Ling Yang did not start this game.

The Suns have always been very experienced in playing the Rockets. The two teams have fought twice this season, and the Suns have won.

Including the Huaxia Derby, which had a great influence not long after Lingyang started, and the battle after Yao Ming was injured, Sun had the last laugh.

The same is true of this game. Although Yao Ming performed very well in the game, there was no inside defensive player like Kurt Thomas, allowing Yao Ming to fully play inside. He made 19 of 10 shots and 7 of 7 free throws in the game. 27 points and 18 rebounds.

But the Suns still won, as McGrady, another Rockets scoring point, was lost in this game.

In this game, D'Antoni compressed Stoudemire's playing time to only 10 minutes.

Ling Yang, who defended McGrady well, got more playing time than the previous game.

In the whole game, although Ling Yang did not get the 20+10 data as before, Ling Yang still scored 14 points and 18 rebounds in this game.

At the same time, Ling Yang's restriction on McGrady was the key to the Suns' victory in the game. Under Ling Yang's defense, McGrady made 18 of 6 shots and only scored 15 points.

In the end, the Suns beat the Rockets 111:94 away.

However, this game was not all good news for the Suns. After returning to the locker room after the game, Stoudemire once again expressed his knee discomfort.

Therefore, the Suns, which originally planned to return to Phoenix the next day, also returned overnight, and then Stoudemire also went to check overnight.

Ling Yang didn't go with him that night, so he didn't know about Stoudemire's situation for the time being.

However, according to Ling Yang's guess, there is a high probability that Stoudemire will need a truce for the entire season just like his previous life.

As for whether this is the case, we have to wait for the news the next day.

All the games in February were completed after the end of the game against the Rockets. The Suns' record came to 2 wins and 39 losses.

When March starts, the first thing Ling Yang does when he wakes up in the morning is to enter the system.

According to the system's usual practice, at the end of February, Lingyang's competition and training results in the past two months will be checked periodically, which will adjust Lingyang's personal ability value.

And Ling Yang also waited for this moment early, he waited to see his adjusted ability value, and then decided the direction of his next ability improvement.

In the last three games, Ling Yang has accumulated 101 experience points, although his data has been affected by Stoudemire's return.

This makes Ling Yang's experience points have reached 820 points at the moment.
