NBA: Become stronger by dunking

【32】Leading all rookies!

On the other side.

In the Staples Center, the Lakers and Timberwolves started half an hour late. The former is the defending champion, while the latter is a bottom-ranked team that lost the"Wolf King" and could not enter the playoffs.

Last season's FMVP.

Kobe also exploded in the first quarter, scoring 16 points in a single quarter.

Even if it was just a preseason game, he would take it seriously, and the direct result was that Kobe's gorgeous breakthrough and unsolvable fadeaway made the home fans feast their eyes and watch it heartily.

Let's talk about the Warriors. In the second quarter, Su Mo, who had a 94-point mid-range shooting ability and a 91-point breakthrough ability in special training, scored 11 points. If he hadn't missed a few 3-pointers, he might have scored more.

But it doesn't matter. You just need to practice more in actual combat to improve faster.

So.

Su Mo scored 28 points in the first half and had 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

In the second half.

Su Mo failed to play.

This is not surprising.

Preseason games are more about getting familiar with the game, adapting to the new season, or practicing tactics, and getting more familiar with each other. There will be no real battles, and no care about winning or losing.

On the other hand, Harden of the Thunder.

Although he played in all four quarters, his performance tonight was really bad. He played for a total of 17 minutes, 2 of 8 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, and only got 6 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.

Harden: 6 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.

Su Mo: 28 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

In this comparison, Harden's preseason debut was really weak.

If you say that Thunder coach Scott Brooks had a little struggle in his heart about whether to put Harden on the bench.

Then with Su Mo's part.

Coach Brooks made a quick decision and decisively let Harden play as a substitute.

In the second half.

The two main players didn't play much, but the advantages accumulated by Su Mo's outstanding performance in the first half allowed the Warriors to laugh to the end and win the Thunder, which had just formed the"three youngsters".

On the other side.

Kobe scored 37 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in three quarters, leading the Timberwolves by 24 points.

That's it.

Kobe went off the court to rest.

In the last quarter, when Kobe was resting, Gasol came over and said,"Kobe, I just received news that Warriors rookie Su Mo scored 28 points in the first half, which is quite impressive!"

"Oh?!"Kobe blinked, slightly startled, then smiled faintly,"28 points in the first half is indeed good, but this is a preseason game, it is also standard."

"certainly"

"For a rookie like Su Mo, this is an exceptional performance."

"That's right." Gasol shrugged and turned his attention back to the court.

The Lakers' game against the Timberwolves was a foregone conclusion. The Lakers won easily.......

Across the ocean.

In the CCTV Basketball Radio studio, Wang Meng, Zhang, and Su Qun were sitting together, staring at their notebooks, paying attention to the Warriors' preseason games.

"17 points in a single quarter, 28 points in the first half."

Wang Meng shook his head vigorously, his face full of shock.

Coach Zhang laughed:"Hey, it's amazing, Su Mo is really good, it's not because of the summer league, he is just so good, I can be 100% sure"

"Indeed."

Su Qun raised her glasses and nodded.

"Ding ding ding!"

Wang Meng knocked on the table with a pen and said in concentration:"Dayao was injured in the playoffs last year and was out for the season. In addition, he has many scars on his body."

"The next return is far away"

"Although the Rockets are a popular team in China, without Yao Ming, their popularity has dropped by at least half or more."

"Relying on only a few popular teams such as the Lakers and Cavaliers is not in our best position.......Su Mo's appearance is definitely a turning point"

"With his talent, as long as he plays a few games in the regular season"

"Considering his status as a domestic player, I think......It won't be long before it explodes in the Chinese basketball world."

Wang Meng looked serious. He was sure that

"Yes."

Su Qun nodded."In the summer league that was not broadcast, Su Mo's outstanding performance that subverted people's perceptions has already made him famous in China, and his popularity abroad is even higher."

"What do you mean?"

Coach Zhang was a little confused.

Wang Meng continued:"I think......We need to report to the higher authorities to reduce the broadcast of Rockets and some other popular teams, and fill the vacancy with Warriors."

"Preferably every Warriors game"

"I think it's OK"

"I see"

"OK, I'll report it immediately."......

The preseason lasted for 22 days. As time went by, the first game data of the rookies were released one by one. In comparison, Su Mo was the most impressive.

""No. 1" Griffin scored 17 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists in the first preseason game."No. 2" Hasheem Thabeet? A big fake, let's not mention it.

"

The third pick Harden was also in a bad state, scoring 6 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists. Evans, who was picked 4th, was as stable as ever, scoring 16 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists.

It is worth mentioning that Jennings, who was picked 10th, has been on a high start since the summer league, and has continued to play data that exceeds his ranking. In the first preseason game, he scored 15 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists.

In addition,

Curry, DeRozan, Rubio, Teague and others also scored about 8-10 points.

A team has about 8 games in the preseason.

In the limited playing time, Su Mo averaged 25.6 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game, also ranking first on the rookie list.

The second place Griffin averaged 14.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.5 assists.

Jennings, who ranked third, only averaged 11.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 3.4 assists.

Looking at the data of one game alone, Su Mo does not seem to be that outstanding, but after averaging the data of 8 games, Su Mo's overall data leads all rookies.

It is undoubtedly an extremely rare thing for a free agent without a draft pick to play amazing data that leads all rookies.

No.

Such a thing has never happened in the history of the NBA preseason.

When the preseason ended.
