"Sing Tao Daily" - Chinese Jordan was born, and the Long Beach Summer League sent off the Canadian national team with 37 points!
"Los Angeles Chinese News (Mainland News)" - The Los Angeles Lakers are happy to acquire Xiaolin. Duen, who is from mainland China, scored 37 points to help the Lakers get a good start in the summer league.
"World Journal" - Asia's No. 1 guard Du En played through the summer league. He was excellent in sudden shots and scored 37 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals. Will he be the Rukawa Kaede in your mind?
On the morning of July 7, Chinese newspapers in the Los Angeles area had spread all over the Chinese community, and Duan's name was spread to thousands of households.
In fact, in addition to the Chinese in the Los Angeles area, many white and black fans, as well as a very small number of veterans, also learned about Dunn's wonderful performance in the summer league.
"Orange County Chronicle" - The Los Angeles Lakers won the first game of the Long Beach Summer League. Duan, the 13th overall pick in the first round, performed brilliantly, leading the team to a victory with 37 points and 7 rebounds.
"Riverside Enterprise News, California" - Kobe Bryant's official arrest has been a fateful one, Duane's summer league performance shocked everyone, and the Los Angeles Lakers have found a replacement for Kobe Bryant.
"San Bernardino Sun" - In the Long Beach Summer League that started yesterday, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Canadian national team 94-86. The Lakers' first-round pick Duan performed well and led the team to victory with 37 points.
Los Angeles Times – The next Kobe Bryant? Los Angeles Lakers player Duane scored 37 points in the summer league and may become the biggest dark horse in this year's draft! The Lakers selected a No. 1 pick with the 13th pick in the first round!
Perhaps it is because Kobe has attracted the attention of the United States recently. Even the third largest newspaper in the United States, such as the Los Angeles Times, has begun to use Kobe to report on Duane's news.
Thanks to Kobe's influence, Duan instantly became a household name in the United States.
Perhaps it was due to Duane's amazing performance in the first game of the Summer League that Payton and Malone, who were still negotiating contracts with the Lakers, suddenly came to the sidelines to watch the game after the second day of the Summer League.
This is tantamount to announcing to the world that even if Kobe is involved in a scandal, it still cannot affect Payton and Malone's willingness to join the Lakers.
Next season the Lakers will form a Big Four team and once again charge towards the championship.
"Dunn, your defense is too clean. Playing is not embroidery, you should work harder."
During the halftime break, Payton, who had already regarded Duane as a teammate for next season, couldn't help but come to the sidelines and give guidance to Duen.
In the eyes of an old ball geek like Payton, if there are no small moves on defense, is it still called defense?
After Payton finished speaking, Malone did not pretend to be cold.
"You have to use your elbows flexibly and look for opportunities to swing your arms when breaking through and grabbing rebounds. This can effectively deter your opponents and allow you to gain more offensive space!"
In this game, the Lakers played the Mavericks, and Duan faced off against Marjosh Howard.
Although Josh Howard is only a rookie at the end of the first round, he has very good physical talents, especially his wingspan and running and jumping ability, which is very suitable for defense.
Duane's shooting will naturally be affected by Josh Howard's long arms.
After the first half, Duan made 5 of 11 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, and 3 of 4 free throws. Although he scored 15 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists, compared to the previous game, his shooting percentage dropped significantly. few.
In addition, under the interference of Josh Howard, the shortcomings of slightly insufficient dribbling ability were also highlighted. There were 2 turnovers in the first half.
After all, a rookie is still a rookie, and most of the abilities brought by templates need to be slowly digested by Du En through games.
In the last game against the Canadian men's basketball team, the opponent did not give Duen much confrontation, which made it easy for Duen.
In this game, Josh Howard used defense to strengthen Duen, and Duen's performance in all aspects seemed to have dropped by a notch.
However, after learning lessons and receiving guidance from two old football hooligans, Du En also began to take the initiative to change and accelerate his evolution.
Du En's dribbling needs to be strengthened, so let Pargo hold the ball first and play without the ball for a while.
When Josh Howard was replaced, Duan took over the ball again, combined with sudden shots, and killed everyone.
The Mavericks' players are basically NBA-level players. Although most of them are substitutes and marginal players, their confrontation and defensive abilities are not bad.
The Mavericks are not like the Canadian men's basketball team, who immediately double-teamed Duan while he was still outside the three-point line.
It is precisely because of this that Duan's shooting ability, especially his strong shooting ability, can play some role on the court.
Although the shooting percentage is still not that good, the scoring efficiency of three-pointers is high.
Relying on 4 three-pointers without the ball and with the ball in the third quarter, Duan's scoring data once again approached 30 points.
Duen, who came on the court in the fourth quarter, changed his style of playing from the outside in the third quarter. Duen knew very well that a two-pointer would be more stable at the decisive moment.
Relying on his excellent ability to draw fouls, Duan only scored 2 points in the fourth quarter in sports games, but he scored 5 points on free throws.
"This kid is quite interesting, his playing style is very similar to yours!"
After watching Duan's outstanding performance, Payton suddenly made fun of Malone who was standing aside.
Ma Long shook his head and laughed when he heard this: "He is too soft, he can't use his muscles at all."
Payton could only smile when he heard this. Who doesn't know that you are a handsome boy from China Investment Corporation?
Look at those arm muscles, look at the pick-and-roll breakthrough, look at the frequency of getting to the free throw line after drawing fouls. Isn't this the smaller Karl Malone who switched to shooting three-pointers?
Many people were deceived by Malone's iron elbow and thought Malone could only play fast breaks and only get to the basket.
In fact, Malone's mid-range shooting and foul-drawing abilities are also outstanding. Just like Garnett, who is known for his iron-bloodedness, he has an iron-blooded jump shot, as well as good foul-drawing and free throw shooting abilities.
It can only be said that the reason why superstars are superstars is because they have brains.
If they only rely on dead muscles to play, they will not be able to play in the NBA for so long.
Seeing Du En playing so maturely on the court, even if Malone is unforgiving, he still feels in his heart that Du En can be a good helper for them next season.
With 35 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, Duan scored two consecutive games with 35+ points in the Long Beach Summer League.
Although the summer league statistics are not worth mentioning, I have not seen any rookie perform better than Duane in recent years.
Besides, Du En is only 19 years old. Even those who are harsh on Du En have to give an evaluation of the promising future.
A day later, on the other side of the ocean, we finally received the news that Doan scored 37 points in the summer league and led the Lakers to defeat the Canadian national team.
You must know that the best shooting guard in the men's basketball team before, Asian Jordan Hu Weidong, only scored 30 points at the highest in the summer league.
And that time the men's basketball team faced the Lakers led by rookie Kobe Bryant, and ended in failure.
It can be seen that the level of the men's basketball team may not be able to take any advantage in the summer league.
And Duan has led the team to defeat the Canadian men's basketball team with 37 points, proving that he has a level one or two higher than domestic guards.
After all, let alone the second Hu Weidong, we can't even train the second Liu Wei these days.
For a time, the newborn calf who used to talk wildly and knew nothing about the world became everyone's recognized future star and savior of men's basketball.
Some intellectuals with the right to speak have even begun to conduct a series of reflections in the media.
Since then, the Yao-Du team has become the most talked about topic among fans...
