One Thousand and Eighty-Four. Facing the Dream Backcourt
“A Night You Can’t Lose (b):
Goal: In the opening game of the 2012-2013 season, the host must help the team win.
Event Reward: Mysterious Fragments*2.
Failure Penalty: If the host loses a certain number of points in the opening game, he will have an equal number of shots in the next game, and his hands will be extremely cold, and he will be crooked when he dunks.”
“Fuck! Why are all the events related to the game with the old blacksmith like they are against the basket? But I haven’t got the mysterious fragments for a long time. Let me see, I have 3 mysterious fragments. If I get two more, I can draw a lottery!”
Sun Ce didn’t feel bad about this event, it came just in time! He was extremely eager to win the game tonight, to give a perfect end to the last season and a good start to the new season.
But then the next event came...
"The host is about to face off against the strongest point guard and the strongest shooting guard in the league today. The SS-level career event Little Overlord's Domination Series 1 event: Dream Backcourt is triggered."
"Dream Backcourt Phase 1 event: The beginning of a new journey is triggered.
Goal 1: In the opening game of the 12-13 season, the host needs to help the team beat the Lakers.
Goal 2: In the opening game of the 12-13 season, the host needs to get more assists than Chris Paul or score more than Kobe Bryant.
Event Reward: Random A special card.
Failure penalty: The difficulty of the event will be greatly increased the next time you play against the dream backcourt combination. "
Seeing the name of the event "Dream Backcourt", Sun Ce remembered that he had seen it in the last regular season game against the Lakers last season. The event failed, but it was mentioned that this event was to be triggered...
"New Journey, the name of this phased event is very suitable for this game. For the Lakers' dream backcourt and for me, tonight's game is the beginning of a new journey."
But Sun Ce thought about it - more assists than Paul? More points than Kobe, who is likely to play the best offensive efficiency in his career?
Should the first game of the new season be so difficult?
……
At 6:20 pm on November 1, 2012, 20 minutes earlier than usual, the Lakers players have begun to be introduced.
In the Grizzlies player tunnel, with the DJ's low introduction, Sun Ce saw the other team's substitutes lined up in two rows, Leonard B-level, Jr. Smith B+ level, Blake B-level, Brand B-level, Jamison B-level, Mix B-level, Earl Clark B-level, Chris Duhon C-level...
According to the new NBA regulations, the 12-man activation list has been increased to 13, which means that 8 substitutes can be sent.
Sun Ce looked at the 8 substitutes on the opposite side, which were much stronger than the Lakers' two consecutive championships! He remembered that in the 09-10 season, except for Farmar and Odom, the substitute lineup did not have a B-level player.
Now the Lakers' starting lineup is definitely weaker, but the rotation lineup is strong! Although there is no substitute quasi-superstar like Odom who has an A-level base and can sometimes play an S-level performance when focused, there are more people!
Then came the starting lineup. Artest was the first to appear, followed by Josh Smith, Jordan Hill, Paul, and Kobe.
I took the time to look at the ability evaluation of the opponent's five starting players.
"Kobe Bryant, 34 years old, weight 92 kg, ability evaluation S, offense S+, defense B+, three-pointer (S-?), mid-range shot S+, layup S, speed A+, strength S-... catch and shoot S-... off-ball running A+..."
Sun Ce was scared when he saw Kobe, S+ level offense?
Sun Ce remembered that in the original time and space, Kobe would become a traffic commander in the 12-13 season. When he was not focusing on defense, his defense would not be a drag. He lost his past defense, but he played the best efficiency in his career on the offensive end, and Nash was injured and stopped, and there was no stable passer.
But this is too unscientific! Can you be so awesome if you have good basic skills? Even if Kobe made adjustments during the season last season,
Now, it has only been 10 months, and Kobe has brought his catch and shoot to S-level, and his off-ball running is also at a quasi-top level.
Sun Ce remembered that in the original time and space, when Nash was not injured, Kobe was very good at shooting after receiving the ball, but this is too much!
Basic skills! Sun Ce has tasted the sweetness of having good basic skills. In terms of mid-range and three-point shooting, he also focused on polishing basic skills from the beginning, shooting movements, shooting angle selection... After practicing these well, he started to practice accuracy, and then made rapid progress.
But Kobe is already 34 years old in the summer. At this age, he should not fish well, so what kind of ball should he practice!
"Chris Paul, ability evaluation S, offense S-, defense S-, three-pointer A+, mid-range shooting S, layup A+, speed A+, strength S-, jumping B+..."
Paul is much more scientific. After two major injuries, his jumping was destroyed, his speed was not as good as before the injury, and his strength was stronger.
This is the rival that Sun Ce and Tony teacher are competing for the first defense! A defensive expert who can still be selected for the first defense at the age of 32.
Two S-level superstars, Sun Ce is overwhelmed, but fortunately, he has several first-class stars on his side, so he is not afraid.
"Metta World Peace... B+? 104 kg? A-level three-pointer, Metta World Peace has lost another two kilograms? The effect is good, and the ability evaluation has returned to the starting level.
Jordan Hill, C+ level, physical fitness man, nothing too amazing.
Josh Smith, 27 years old, 115 kg, ability rating a+, offense a-, defense a+, three-pointer b-, mid-range shot b, layup s-, speed a+, strength a+... dribbling b+, passing b+..."
Sun Ce was amazed at his physical fitness. The only player Sun Ce had seen who had such athletic ability at Josh Smith's height and weight was James!
But in terms of strength, Josh Smith is far worse than James.
Josh Smith has mastered all aspects of technology. He can do almost everything, but he is not proficient in any one. In other words, he has the talent to learn any technology. But he didn't practice any of the skills well.
But we can't say that Josh Smith didn't work hard. He can practice every skill to the entry level, or even a good level, which means that Josh Smith is also a very hardworking player.
But hard work is not always right, you have to develop in the right direction. Sun Ce feels that this guy was played badly by the Hawks. It's better to focus on one aspect like James. He can do everything, but he has no other first-class skills except defense and pick-and-roll.
Such a good talent is wasted!
As a player, Sun Ce will feel sorry for those players who waste their talents not because of objective reasons but because of their own talents.
However, talent is king. Even if he wastes his talent like this, Josh Smith still averaged 18. 8 points, 9.6 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.4 steals, 2.2 blocks, the shooting percentage is a bit poor, as a power forward, the shooting percentage is only 45%.
Good talent is awesome.
Moreover, Josh Smith is very suitable for pick-and-roll cooperation with Paul.
When Sun Ce was observing the opponent, Chris Wallace had already entered the court, and the flag-raising ceremony of the championship flag was about to begin.
Then it was the turn of the home team players to enter the court. The substitutes had already lined up in two rows in front of the player tunnel amid the cheers of the fans. There was only one of the two emperors left, and the fans were a little sad.
Chris Wallace tried the microphone, like a village cadre, and then said passionately: "Ladies and gentlemen, next we invite the best player in the world, our MVP, our lord!"
The fans at the scene had already started to shout "MVP", and Sun Ce ran out of the player tunnel... Still looking for "I don't want to be the boss" free novel? Baidu directly search: "Easy to read novels" is very simple! (=Easy to read novels)
