Paul Silas held his head as Lindsey Hunter was knocked over.
Although he already knew that Su Xi was a monster in his usual training, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw him knocking over Lindsay Hunter like a steamroller crushing a watermelon.
There is no doubt that the two physical monsters of the 2003 class have come their way.
Lindsay Hunter returned to the bench, and his teammates quickly asked him, "Are you okay? Is Suzy the Sheep really that strong?"
Hunter touched the back of his head, and there was a slight numbness left by Su Xi: "I just didn't stand properly, it seems I twisted my waist a little."
"Lindsay, I'll cover it for you later." Prince said loyally.
"Ah... don't." Lindsay Hunter thought of the fear of being dominated by Su Xi. Prince's body of ribs could not withstand the collision of that monster sheep.
"What?" Pulis asked.
"No... I think he's pretty nice," Lindsay Hunter said.
"Hahahaha. Lindsay, when did you become so kind? Aren't you a descendant of the Bad Boys Legion?" Prince teased.
Lindsay Hunter smiled. He thought of Su Xi's sincere eyes: the more sincere the eyes, the more frightened he was. Because when Ranbir, the number one villain in the Bad Boys Legion, was messing with others, he would sincerely ask: Do you believe I will kill you?
Larry Brown requested a timeout. Although it is unlucky to call a timeout on the first possession, this is a preseason game after all.
He replaced Chucky Atkins.
Atkins is officially 180cm tall and weighs 86kg. He is a typical small offensive point guard. He is keen on shooting, but his shot selection is sometimes good and bad. He is fast, but his shooting rate when breaking into the penalty area is below average. He has always been a wandering player, active on the bench of various teams. He doesn't have much reputation in the NBA. The only word he gets out of the circle is that "Kobe is the general manager." (Important information during Kehei’s meeting)
Atkins didn't talk trash to Susie when he came on the court. For him, playing in the NBA is just a job, and there is no need to work so hard.
But he really didn't contribute much, and Su Xi pestered him.
After Su Xi's super speed talent increased to 89, his speed was not too slow. Coupled with 95 points of super explosive power, he directly locked Atkins at the top of the arc.
If Atkins can't beat him, he just shoots two basketballs. It doesn't matter if he doesn't score, as long as he looks serious.
Atkins is a role model in the NBA. Every time he defends, he will be busy and active, but his opponents can always break through him easily. Very ordinary point guards can get star statistics when playing against him. Therefore, he has good 'rivalry' and everyone praises him as a good person.
A bit like Derek Fisher in the later period. At first glance, he showed his teeth and claws as fierce as a tiger, but when he looked at his opponent, he had already scored.
Su Xi passed him twice, it was not difficult, just like crossing the road in the early morning.
Su Xi scored 5 points, 3 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block in the first quarter.
Very versatile.
But the first quarter was LeBron James' stage, running rampant on the wing and beating his opponents to pieces with his physicality. The Pistons really have no moves.
Paul Silas now has a headache. His basketball thinking is inherited from Chuck Daly, and he accepts traditional basketball thinking when playing basketball.
In his original understanding, shooting guards are shooting guards, and Hamilton, Ray Allen, and Reggie Miller are pure shooting guards.
However, since Jordan, shooting guards have taken the small forward job.
The small forward is required to have the best physical fitness and the strongest defensive ability. The distance from the paint area to the three-point line can clear the opponent and force the defense.
Silas originally hoped that LeBron James would become a top swingman, just like Kobe and Jordan. However, even though the current sense of position in the NBA is relatively blurred, LeBron's sense of position is still too erratic. He doesn't have the shooting ability of a shooting guard, nor does he have the super offensive skills of a small forward to complete hard tackles.
However, his physical fitness is very strong. Once he rushes, no one can stop him, and he also has certain passing ability and passing vision.
Is it possible to ask him to play point guard?
Silas was tangled in the first quarter.
James scored 9 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block in the first quarter. He had two wonderful dunks. One was when Su Xi assisted him in the alley-oop, and the other was when he drove to the basket and knocked away Milicic's heavy dunk. buckle.
Looking at the first quarter alone, Milicic is not a rookie of the same level as James and Suhi at all.
If James is a giant monster with an erratic sense of position, Su Xi is a strange little beast who reaches the 1st position and punishes opponents for misplaced positions.
Then, Milicic is the little elk with beautiful horns who got lost in the thorns. He couldn't find his position at all and was stumbling around in the paint.
Larry Brown yelled at him from the sidelines and didn't hold back at all.
The child lowered his head in grievance, even looking like he wanted to cry.
Su Xi is indeed a pretty good person. He even said to Milicic when he blocked a foul: "You have to use your flexible feet. You run very fast."
This sentence is like a clear spring in the desert to Milicic. It will stay in Milicic's heart forever, so that throughout his long career, he will remember Su Xi's treatment of him in the first game of his career. of encouragement.
After the Cavaliers led by 8 points in the first quarter, Paul Silas had more ideas.
He put the panting Susi on the bench to rest, and asked James to go to the point guard position, paired with Kevin Ollie, Ricky Davis, Carlos Boozer, and Ilgauskas.
This is a carefully designed lineup, and he hopes to use Kevin Ollie's experience and reasonable handling methods to make the team better integrated.
Kevin Ollie has always been a leader in the locker room, he’s a great guy and everyone believes in him.
However, this cannot solve the problem of James and Ricky Davis. Although the two of them seem friendly, they tend to mess up when they get on the court.
Their incompatibility is visible to the naked eye.
When Ricky Davis got the ball, James stood around doing nothing.
When James charges, Davis doesn't know what to do, and his movement is sometimes overlooked. James is also more willing to team up with Carlos Boozer and Ilgauskas.
In the sixth minute of the second quarter, the Pistons relied on the performance of Prince and Hamilton to overtake the lead.
They have more experience, having reached the Eastern Conference Finals last season under Carlisle.
Paul Silas requested a timeout, and he made the decision, resting both LeBron James and Kevin Ollie and letting Suhi play point guard, paired with Jason Kapono.
At this time, Ricky Davis said there again: "Coach, there is no need to arrange so many tactics, just leave the ball to me. Last season, there were only three superstars in the league who averaged 20+5+5 per game, and one It’s Tracy McGrady, one is Kobe, and who the other one is, you know..."
Carlos Boozer turned sideways, and Suzy saw him snickering.
Originally he didn't want to laugh, but when someone turns his back and snickers, you will find it funny.
Su Xi covered her mouth and lowered her head, and the air of laughter came out from between her fingers.
"What are you laughing at?" Ricky Davis suddenly stared at Su Xi.
"Um..., I remembered something funny." Su Xi replied.
Poof!
Carlos Boozer over there burst out laughing. No more betraying anyone.
Ricky Davis turned to look at Boozer again, and Abu wiped the sweat from his eyebrows: "I also remembered funny things."
"Ha ha ha ha."
Su Xi couldn't bear it anymore.
With Kapono also laughed.
The three of them had the same laugh, because they complained about Ricky Davis touching Maddie and Kobe at Boozer's house last night. Boozer said: It's like a man who is 158cm tall and has to stand up to carry 183cm on his back. A woman's legs must be spread so wide.
"Okay, stop laughing." Paul Silas said majestically: "Be serious, we are playing ball."
Beep!
The whistle blows and the game begins.
When he came on the court, Ricky Davis warned Susie again: "Remember to give me the damn ball, do you hear me?"
"I work for the team, and I'll give it to you if you run into the right tactical position."
Su Xi gave him a nod.
This makes Ricky Davis feel bad.
James, who was sitting on the bench, raised his eyebrows. He thought to himself: It has to be Jack, even though he has received a big sponsorship because he is a Chinese player. But he still wholeheartedly assisted me and fought against the powerful Davis for me. I finally enjoyed Cameron's happiness.
Kapono handed the basketball to Su Xi.
Su Xi dribbled the ball across half court, and Billups stepped forward to defend. Billups is a first-line point guard in the NBA. He is called Mr. Key. He has a big heart and a strong body.
Belongs to the category of tall point guards.
But Susie came over. He was a little taller than Billups.
Billups opened his hands, he was going to lock Su Xi's offensive.
Suhi made a quick change of direction in front of his body. When he caught Billups' center of gravity moving to the right, he quickly rushed to the left.
But at this time, Billups had quickly adjusted... To be precise, this was a trap.
Billups often traps opponents in this way, allowing opponents to enter his defensive swamp. His strength can scare away most point guards.
But... poof!
When Su Xi collided head-on, half of their bodies collided.
Billups suddenly felt a strong force coming, his strong body leaned back, and Su Xi squeezed in.
He quickly turned around to pursue, but Su Xi had already made an S-shape around Ilgauskas.
Milicic rushed to help defend, his pace was very good.
Davis reached out from the side and asked.
Su Xi made a move to pass to him, and he quickly reached out to catch the ball.
Milicic's defense was completely deceived. Unexpectedly, Su Xi hit the ground directly. The basketball penetrated into the penalty area from another angle. Carlos Boozer caught the basketball and jumped up... Boom!
Dunk.
The scene was filled with screams.
This is a great pass from Susie.
James jumped up waving a towel: "Well done, you are worthy of Suzy the Sheep!"
Carlos Boozer also ran over and gave Susie a high-five.
But as the crowd screamed and cheered, Ricky Davis was unhappy.
He caught up with Su Xi while returning to defense and said to Su Xi: "Why don't you pass it to me?"
"You didn't move." Su Xi said.
"Then why are you kidding me? You pretended to pass it to me, but gave the ball to Carlos." Ricky Davis was unhappy that he was cheated.
"If you had just taken two more steps forward, I would have passed it to you, and you would have been the one to dunk."
Su Xi said, he walked to the other side to wait for Billups.
Ricky Davis recalled the offensive position just now. Indeed, if I took two more steps, I could indeed attack the basket directly.
No, is this guy teaching me how to do things?
Does a superstar who averages 20+5+5 per game have to listen to his instructions?
