Five Hundred and Thirty-Two. The Rookie Contaminated by Evil Videos

Putting aside some small things last season, in terms of the overall situation, it was too smooth. They counterattacked all the way to the sixth place in the Western Conference. In the first round, they played the Mavericks, who may have been the weakest team in the Western Conference playoffs last season, and easily reached the third place. In the second round, everything went so well.

Just like the Thunder, which started rebuilding in 2007, there have been almost no major setbacks since the rebuilding. The journey has been smooth, the core players have been selected or signed smoothly, and the style of play is also very good, and they have become a regular season player smoothly. The playoff-level teams are about to produce real results.

But at the beginning of the season, they suffered a heavy blow. The first game after losing Gay was so difficult, and the players were really not used to it.

The game ended, it was still early, and it was only 7pm after the interview. Sun Ce stayed alone in the lounge of the training ground to watch tonight's game, preparing to review what he did well and what he didn't do well tonight before going to practice with Nash. training method.

Sun Ce played 24 minutes in this game, got 7 assists, and made 4 turnovers.

Four turnovers in 24 minutes...much higher than the average of 2.2 turnovers in 30 minutes per game in the first ten games of this season.

After using the white chocolate star experience card, Sun Ce didn't seem to feel that he had learned anything from his playing experience, nor did he have any insights into his playing style.

But in the game, the judgment of some details of passing is a little different. Occasionally, I can't help but make the kind of pass that my teammates didn't expect.

Moreover, White Chocolate's passing rating is only A-, which is based on White Chocolate's passing performance in the game. His passing accuracy is much better than Sun Ce himself, with a little bit of force and angle when passing the ball. It was not easy for Sun Ce to grasp the pass, so two such passes were intercepted.

However, since he didn't have that damn skill of "Magical Magician", Sun Ce couldn't help but pass it on like that, and it didn't have a particularly big impact.

After Sun Ce had tasted the joy of deceiving everyone by passing the ball, he also wanted to give it a try occasionally. Although he knew it was wrong, Sun Ce probably knew that playing like that might even make his teammates disgusted, but it was really fun.

It's just that his own passing ability is not enough now, and his body is still growing. It is not easy to maintain the current ball control and passing. He needs to train hard, and we will talk about it later.

As a professional basketball player, if you are capable and play well, you will be regarded as a "classic" if you occasionally mess up. If you are weak and play poorly, you will not be criticized for doing such tricks.

In sports competitions, food is the original sin!

Whatever the strong winner does is right, novices are not qualified to play tricks.

But in tonight's game, Sun Ce has a deeper understanding of his team's strength.

In terms of defense alone, even if Gay is injured, he is still very strong! Very strong!

Once the offensive end is re-run, it will still be a strong team in the second round of the Western Conference playoffs, but the key point is that the offensive end must at least have some strength, otherwise it will be like the first half of tonight's game, with no defense, but because the opponent went crazy After throwing in a few three-pointers and being unable to catch up, it's not that I don't want to catch up, but that I'm powerless.

They still have to rely on the fast break in the third quarter.

However, the athletic abilities of Paul George, Yi Jianlian, and Jordan are really nothing to say, but they gave Sun Ce a glimmer of hope.

…

After Paul George finished icing, he went to take a hot shower. When he changed his clothes in the locker room and was about to go to the parking lot, he passed by the training ground and saw the light in the lounge was on. He opened the door curiously and saw Sun Ce was inside facing the computer, probably watching a video.

Sun Ce heard the door open and looked up, it was Paul George!

Coincidentally, Sun Ce was thinking about how to squeeze... No, how to give the rookie some incentives.

"Paul, come sit here." Sun Ce pointed to the seat next to him.

Paul George is a little afraid of Sun Ce, a super genius who broke all kinds of terrifying records with his strong performance in his rookie year and tied for the best rookie with Evans, who averaged 20+5+5 per game.

He played 19 minutes in tonight's game and tried his best to get 5 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals.

He performed extremely well on the defensive end, and also had a three-pointer and a counterattack dunk on the offensive end. He worked hard until his physical strength declined. He was also very satisfied with his performance.

But seeing Sun Ce and thinking of Sun Ce's performance in his rookie year last season, Paul George calmed down and knew that he was still far away.

There was a huge difference in status. When he heard the greeting, Paul George hurried over and sat down.

"I'm not from Cantonese. Why does this guy seem to be afraid of me? Even if I am from Cantonese, he should be afraid of Sichuan people? Cantonese people don't eat pickled peppers..."

Sun Ce was puzzled for a moment, then quickly regained his attention and said, "Paul, there is something I want to tell you."

Paul George nodded quickly to show that he was listening.

Uh... so obedient?

Sun Ce thought for a while and started to lie... No, it was motivation: "I think you have the potential to become the best defensive shooting player on our team!"

Paul George had already made plans. No matter what Sun Ce said, he was right. As soon as Sun Ce finished speaking, Paul George nodded and said, "Noah, you are right..."

Just after he finished speaking, Paul George suddenly reacted: "What... no... I'm just a rookie..."

During the game, Paul George just got a chance. He dared to shoot and gave him a chance. He would never say "I'm not ready."

But outside of the game, when he came to the NBA and saw so many powerful players, he was so scared!

The team has a shooter like Morrow who ranks among the top three-point shooters in the league, an excellent defensive shooting player like Battier, and before that, Gay, who is great with and without the ball...

Hearing Sun Ce say this, Guy was frightened!

"No, in my opinion you are that good!" Sun Ce's tone increased unconsciously. Seeing Paul George's confused look, he continued: "Your shooting talent is very good, much better than mine. I I hope you can become the top pitcher in the league like Anthony!

And your defense is much better than Anthony, and your counterattack ability is also stronger. I think our cooperation will become very tacit, just like Otspeth and big-jor, you will become my best helper in counterattack!

It's like you have the perfect combination of Otspeth's body and athletic ability, Anthony's shooting talent, and big-jor's defensive talent. You will definitely succeed...you will definitely succeed!

Train hard! Make progress quickly! I need you, our whole team needs you!

If we want to win the championship, your progress will definitely be crucial!

Let's win the championship together! "

Paul George looked at Sun Ce's momentum like a speaker, heard Sun Ce's sonorous and powerful voice, and felt his impassioned speech. Although he was confused, he didn't expect Sun Ce to have such expectations for him...but he really felt his blood boiling. Got it!

Sun Ce himself doesn’t think he is that good, because his vision is no longer just to be the best among first- and second-year players. Deep down in his heart, he unconsciously compares himself with Rose and Durant, so he feels that he is not enough. good.

But in the eyes of others, he is a super genius.

Paul George learned that the team's most talented super genius had such high expectations for him... Especially Sun Ce's last few words made Paul George feel a "sense of responsibility" that he had never felt before!

"Let's win the championship together" instead of "the rookie follows the team boss to win the championship". The same thing, expressed in different words, feels completely different!

"Come on, train hard, get stronger quickly..." After Sun Ce drew a circle of pie, he patted the shoulder of Paul George, who was only a few months younger than him, left the lounge to practice shooting for a while, and then Practice the Nash method of training.

Watching Sun Ce leave, Paul George's heart was still churning.

For Sun Ce, it's just a matter of paying attention. If it works, you'll make money. If it doesn't work, you won't lose. If this wave of motivation fails, just use another person to motivate him next time.

But for Paul George...tonight is destined to be a sleepless night! Maybe I would lose sleep because of Sun Ce's words.

The pressure is rolling in!

Paul George didn't know what to do now. He got up and walked to the door of the lounge and looked at Sun Ce. Sun Ce was exercising in preparation for training...

Paul George really wanted to use training to relieve the pressure, but it didn't work. He played 19 minutes tonight and was exhausted. As a rookie, he doesn't have much physical strength. Moreover, the new season has just begun, and his consumption is much greater than when he played in the NCAA. It is very possible to get injured while training in this state, and the physical therapy has been completed and I am ready to go back to rest.

But now Paul George didn't know what to do. He sat down on the sofa in the lounge again. He saw the computer that Sun Ce had left on the coffee table. He sat directly opposite the computer and looked at it...

This is a picture of tonight's game.

Paul George was not in the mood to watch this for the time being, so he zoomed out the video player, intending to find a website to play mini-games to relax, but after shrinking the player, he saw an open folder, which was the file on the USB flash drive inserted by Sun Ce. Fuck, just before the editor sent the video disc of tonight's game, Sun Ce watched for a while the short video that he could only watch secretly under the covers for fear of being discovered.

"Kobe Bryant's man-to-man defense teaching video?" Paul George's eyes lit up when he saw this!

Who says he doesn’t want to watch the video now? He, Qiao, likes to watch this kind of evil little video!

Originally, Paul George was excited, scared, and excited because of Sun Ce's words just now. He felt pressure, surprise, worry... and other emotions.

But there is still one key thing missing, which is a sense of identity!

Before Gay was injured, he was the 11th man on the team and a substitute outside the two lineups. He averaged less than 10 minutes per game in the first nine games. For Paul George, in addition to Tony who was willing to teach him defense - Allen, Guy, who had no intention of competing, was willing to teach him how to move. He didn't have a close relationship with anyone else. Talking to Sun Ce...Sun Ce said more words to him today than he had in the past month and a half.

So Paul George is more afraid than excited... He is afraid that he will not meet Sun Ce's expectations and will never get them again.

For Paul George, he finally got more playing time and must keep it.

But Sun Ce’s expectations for him were too high!

Yi Jianlian's counterattack flexibility, Jordan's toughness, and Moreau's three-pointers, Sun Ce hopes he has them all! If he really has the ability to combine the strongest aspects of these three people...even if he is very biased, he can be considered an All-Star player. If he continues to improve, he might become a superstar. The pressure is overwhelming.

But now that I saw this evil little video, Paul George felt a sense of recognition!

It turns out that everyone has the same heart, so as a rookie, of course I have to help the big brother!
