Four Hundred and Eighty. The Monsters Are Ferocious!

A person has a face, and a tree has a skin.

Not a family, don't enter the same door.

Howard and Nelson, two inside and outside combinations who entered the NBA in the same year, played with the same team for six seasons and will soon start their seventh season, perfectly explain these two sentences.

Regardless of their strength, these two people hope to live a decent life!

When arriving at FedEx Arena to prepare for tomorrow's new season opener, a reporter squatting in the arena asked Nelson about Sun Ce being ranked tenth by ESPN.

Nelson thought he was very good and said he would teach Sun Ce a lesson because he had played in the finals. In the past ten years, there were only about ten starting point guards who had played in the finals.

On Howard's side...he doesn't like all technical insiders, even returning teammate Turkoglu.

Because Turkoglu is regarded by the fans as the savior of the Magic, and Howard regards himself as the savior and dislikes Turkoglu's return very much.

Such a strange man.

The day's preparation time passed quickly, and at four o'clock in the afternoon on October 31, half an hour before the start of the game, players from the Grizzlies and Magic teams entered the court, waiting for the game to start.

In the past day, Sun Ce was going to study the Magic's performance with Turkoglu in the 2008-09 season, but found... there was really nothing to study, and the opponent played very simple and rough.

The key lies in one point. Howard can dunk shots that others on the Magic team can't. And the rest of the Magic team are very confident in shooting because of Howard's dominance on the rebound end. That season, he was often able to shoot high-percentage mid-range shots. , can make 10 three-pointers and nearly 10 mid-range shots + long two-pointers in each game. The long-range shots and three-pointers alone account for half of that Magic team's total score.

Sun Ce compared the differences between the 07-08 season and the 09-10 season and the 08-09 season. The main comparison was the difference in the playoffs. The result was unexpected!

Sun Ce found that the Magic's performance in three seasons was similar in the three seasons. The biggest difference was that the Magic's pitchers performed superbly in the mid-range in the 2008-09 season, while their mid-range performance in the 2007-08 and 2009-10 seasons was average. In the playoffs, it can even be described as bad, which also affected the scoring at the basket.

With just over a year of tactical study, Sun Ce is still unable to analyze why he can draw this conclusion from the details of the Magic team's data, which is very different from his impression.

But no matter what, the Magic will be difficult to deal with!

The most difficult one to deal with is Howard who is entering his peak period!

During the pre-game activities and the boss's speech, Sun Ce looked at the opponent's player's ability evaluation and was attracted by Howard's ability evaluation.

"Dwight Howard (peak), ability evaluation S, offense A+, defense S+, rebounds S+, three-pointer... mid-range shot... layup S, speed A-, strength S, jumping S, endurance S..."

too strong!

The strongest insider in active service!

From an offensive point of view, there are definitely insiders with better offensive skills and offensive performance than Howard, but in terms of overall ability, apart from James, Howard should be the strongest one.

The main reason is that his physical fitness reached its peak in the seventh year of his career, and his offensive ability also reached its peak.

With A-level speed, S-level strength, and S-level jumping, he is a complete monster. For this season, he is one level higher than DeAndre Jordan!

Sun Ce has the impression that if Rose hadn't had an amazing MVP season, Howard would have almost been MVP+DPOY!

However, the Magic's lineup is very strange. Howard is an S-level superstar, and he has... a bunch of B-level stars.

The Magic don't have even one A- to A+ player! The whole thing is broken!

Turkoglu, whose ability evaluation is B+, returned to the Magic after a year. He is no longer the top organization forward with A+ level strength in his peak period. He has declined seriously.

Jason Richardson,

Grade B+; Nelson, Grade B; Lewis, Grade B-…

Seeing that Lewis still has three years of maximum salary, he is already at this level... Anyway, Lewis has never performed well enough to earn a top-five salary in the league. Sun Ce feels that the Magic should be used to it.

Judging from the evaluation of the opponent's ability, Sun Ce feels that the Magic can still maintain the strength of at least 50+ wins because it really depends solely on Howard.

Just replacing James is really not just talk.

After the pre-match activities, Sun Ce, Yi Jianlian, and Turkoglu took a group photo together under the guidance of reporters on the sidelines.

These are the three players who played the best in the World Championship finals, the three brothers in the World Championship first team.

In fact, it was not only these three people who were called to take a group photo, but also Gay and Gasol of the Grizzlies.

When they heard the reporter's invitation, the two of them cursed and walked away, wanting to withdraw from the group!

The core players of the championship and runner-up teams took a group photo. Is it humiliating them to go to them?

At 4:25, the referee signaled that the two teams had better prepare for the starting lineup, and the game was about to start in 5 minutes.

After the Grizzlies coaching staff emphasized the tactical arrangement, the starting lineups of the two teams made preparations.

Sun Ce came to the technical stage to apply magnesium powder and looked at the two events tonight.

"Nielsen's goal (C): The host needs to surround Jameer Nelson in all three categories: scoring, rebounds, and assists.

Event reward: One C-level lottery card.

Failure penalty: C-level random penalty. "

This incident only gave C-level difficulty, and also gave the difficult requirement of being surrounded by data in all directions, which means that Nielsen really felt that Nielsen was not very strong.

This is also the case in Sun Ce's impression. After Howard left the Magic, the pitching staff that the Magic originally built around Howard no longer had the outstanding performance of Turan when Howard was still there. They played extremely poorly and could not be traded away. Every one of them was retained. He was a poor performer on the Magic team, and his shooting percentage was still low.

In the first game of the regular season, Sun Ce made his first appearance as the starting core of the outside line. Of course, he had to play well. Seeing Nelson's average ability as an "all-around point guard", Sun Ce felt that a type like his with obvious strengths would have more advantages.

Mainly another event.

"We are a strong team (B): In an interview, Dwight Howard used a joking tone to express his views on the host's team and formed a quarrel with the host's team.

Event objectives: 1. In the next game against the Magic, the player with the highest score on the host's team must be the highest scorer in the game.

2. In the next game against the Magic, the Magic must limit their three-pointers to no more than 10.

3. Win.

Event reward: Complete all three goals and receive a Dwight Howard random season star experience card.

Failure penalty: If the number of failed targets exceeds two, the host will enter a sluggish state for 7 games, ensuring the worst start for the host. "

This incident is incredible!

Guaranteed to have the worst start of his career?

Isn't this the biggest obstacle to his ultimate personal goal of "reaching the top 30" this season?

And that broken reward is not as attractive to Sun Ce as the reward from Nelson's incident.

Howard's star experience card is of some use!

Fortunately, the team's defensive preparations for the game against the Magic were originally designed for the opponent's three-point team. As long as they beat the opponent and limit the opponent's three-pointer, Sun Ce can accept it.

After adjusting his mood and applying powder, Sun Ce came to the court.

The Magic team sent out a lineup of Nelson, Jason Richardson, Turkoglu, Lewis, and Howard.

The Grizzlies sent out a lineup of Sun Ce, Conley, Gay, Randolph, and Gasol.

With a happy smile, Howard played an opening high-five with Nelson and then came to the center circle to prepare for a jump ball.

Every time he sees Howard laughing non-stop during a game, as if he is showing off his personal abilities... Sun Ce will understand why Howard is so unpopular after changing teams.

At 4:30, the game, broadcast live by Cable Sports in the United States, began.

The referee blew the whistle to start the game on time and ran the ball into the sky.

There was no suspense. The ball flew to the highest point and Gasol had just stood up on tiptoe. Howard had already moved the ball backward.

The Magic attack first!

Fall into positional warfare!

Don't look at the past three seasons since Van Gundy became the head coach of the Magic. The Magic have averaged 26 three-pointers per game, ranking first in the league. They are also the only team to average at least 25 three-pointers per game for three consecutive seasons. Teams, including the Suns and Warriors, have only averaged more than 25 three-pointers per game in one season in the past three years.

However, they are a standard positional team.

After Nelson advanced to the frontcourt, Conley defended and Sun Ce followed Jason Richardson.

Richardson learned the off-ball pick-and-roll in the Suns. He ran with Sun Ce. After receiving the ball from Turkoglu, he helped Lewis block Randolph. Moreover, because he ran with Sun Ce, Sun Ce It became the "stake" used by Richardson to block Randolph.

Lewis ran out of a gap and Turkoglu's ball had already been passed to him. Before Sun Ce could switch defense, Lewis made a three-pointer...

It's a very simple tactical combination and the play is very effective, but compared to last season, Lewis has declined again!

I almost missed the first three-pointer in the opening game!

The ball hit the edge of the basket and fell straight down with a "clang" sound.

Howard grabbed the offensive rebound!

Gasol has a good defensive awareness and immediately moved between Howard and the basket before grabbing the rebound, preventing Howard from directly making up the dunk.

Howard saw Gasol's position, leaned against Gasol with his back, and slammed into him!

Originally, the Grizzlies were very confident in Gasol's defense against Howard. It was difficult for Howard to hit Gasol last season.

But this time it was different... Howard directly knocked Gasol back with a big step, jumped high, and smashed the ball into the basket with both hands!

Gasol can't bear it!

Howard's explosive power is so powerful!

Moreover, Gasol lost weight to a little over 121 kilograms and less than 122 kilograms, and Howard also gained 120 kilograms this past summer!

Can't help it!
