277 Regular Season
The NBA's pre-season began to be in a lot of noise. This year's Bulls have found a rebuilt cornerstone for their glory, Ross, and several other rookies are also quite good. From this year on, the NBA has really entered the era of point guards, and a few top point guards will enter the league every year. , start to fight on the battlefield.
Zhang Chen did not participate in all the pre-season games. For him now, he still spends more time on maintaining his physical strength and improving his skills. When his physical strength really begins to be relatively abundant, the NBA regular season will basically begin.
Because Zhang Chen did not play too much in the regular season and looked at his twisted look of holding the pipa, the New York fans were anxious. They wanted to really see what kind of situation this player who had given him a lot of applause was. Unfortunately, Zhang Chen has never really shown himself. Hand, when fighting with the team in front of the home audience, he was on the court to control the ball, brush the assists, and did not score much, which made the New York audience unanimously ask Zhang Chen to show his real strength as soon as possible, which also put certain pressure on Zhang Chen, but he didn't care too much about it. His main battlefield was the regular season and playoffs. Zhang Chen did not participate in the pre-season game in which the team went to Europe, but stayed in New York to continue to practice.
His strength finally rose to level 9. At this time, because of Zhang Chen's physical fitness, he could not break through the final shackles in the end, so his strength stagnated above the ninth level, but he was not discouraged by it - after all, level 9 strength also represents a kind of unification in the NBA. The strength of many inside players has stagnated at about level 7. Zhang Chen's strength has surpassed that of James now.
However, because of physical problems, Zhang Chen will not focus too much of his energy on the process of attacking with strength. Otherwise, his physical consumption will be too fast. His more offensive methods are still the kind of accurate and unparalleled three-pointers and the gentle breakthrough that dances into the inside line with the wind. This is the only thing he really used most in actual combat.
Moreover, although Zhang Chen's strength has improved a lot, it reflects that he is stronger on his body, making his figure look more perfect and does not become a muscle like Warcraft [***]. Now if Zhang Chen's figure is more similar to anyone else, it is McGrady, McGrady's body. Cai and Zhang Chen's figures are relatively similar, and they both have a figure that makes women's surnames. Therefore, Zhang Chen has recently become the third in the fantasy object of female surnames in the United States, which is incredible.
Zhang Chen is still not interested in these so-called investigations with lace news, but this has also brought him a lot of unnecessary troubles - for example, he has refused the advertising requirements of 13 underwear manufacturers to Duffy, and also accepted the advertisements of several clothing brands. Zhang Chen has also become the new generation of leaders of Nike, and Nike is about to start renewing its contract with Zhang Chen.
At this time, Duffy knew how wise the seemingly ridiculous decision Zhang Chen made was - he only signed a one-year contract with Nike, which gave him more choices. At the same time, if Nike didn't pay a high price, Zhang Chen would probably change his job.
So, with Zhang Chen's salary in 2009, he is now a rich man worth more than 20 million, but this rich man still rented a good-looking apartment next to the stadium and also bought an inconspicuous car. Every day, Randorf came to despise Zhang Chen's new car and explained how good his car was. As a result, what he finally received was everyone's attention. After Muttering for a while, he felt bored and stopped.
Zhang Chen began a new practice after reaching the strength level 9. Because his strength could not improve because of the limitations of his body, he began a new skill - defense. Generally speaking, the attack wins the fans and the defense wins the championship. If Zhang Chen can really learn that kind of waterless defense, he will complete the last jigsaw puzzle that he can become a superstar - at that time he will have a gorgeous attack and that kind of waterless defense, so Zhang Chen also has a condition to become a superstar.
Zhang Chen's half-concealed performance in the pre-season caused more expectations from the audience, so they also paid great attention to the opening game of the Knicks this season. On this day, more than 15,000 fans gathered in Madison Garden, where they were going to watch the first game of the Knicks-- Knicks vs Eagles.
The Eagles' staff this season have not been adjusted much. Among their main lineup, Eagle King Johnson is still a very good star player, and this day's game is played at the home of the Knicks.
The audience came here early and began to watch the players' games. Some of them have changed into Zhang Chen's No. 6 jersey to cheer for him. In fact, when Zhang Chen visited Madison Garden last season, everyone had seen Zhang Chen's horrible scoring performance, which made everyone full of his debut. Expectation and confidence.
On this day, Madison Garden is brightly lit, and all kinds of shining lights are extremely brilliant. D'Antoni was in the locker room and said, "Guys, this is our first game. We need to make a good start to this season! This is also our first cooperation in a strict sense. What we need is full-out and unremitting efforts! We must let the away visitors from Atlanta finally roll back to their hometown! We need to strengthen the confidence of the fans who buy tickets with a hearty victory. We want to prove to them that we are the best! Guys, work hard!"
Everyone was still unequivocal on this issue. They stood up together and stretched out their right hand to overlap together, and then shouted victory. However, Randov's hand was just above Zhang Chen, which made him a little annoyed after throwing it away: "I didn't expect me and Mr. Back Door's hand together... This is not a good omen. Maybe that guy passed on all his bad luck to me like this! It's hard to imagine."
Zhang Chen said next to him, "Mr. Dcup, do you have any doubts?"
Randolph said angrily, "Don't call me Dcup. You can call me Zach or Mr. Randolph. Of course, you can also add a descriptive word before my surname and directly call me a good man Randolph. Then I won't mind."
Zhang Chenqiang ran out of the player's channel with nausea. Randorf complained and trotted out of the narrow and dark channel behind.
The player's channel is narrow and dark, surrounded by dark lights. In this passage, it seems that only the one-meter light in front is the ultimate watch. When you step out of that passage in the first step, all of a sudden, the extremely bright light hits your face without reservation, and the shouts of the audience around you are higher than the waves, giving you an illusion that you are in the stormy waves!
At this moment, the willow dark flowers in front of you suddenly opened up, and the overwhelming smell of lights sprinkled on people's faces. This empty court and the paddock where thousands of people gathered around seemed to have become the ancient Roman Colosseum, and the most middle basketball court is the oldest battlefield, where people can really achieve pleasure. The dream of hatred.
Seeing Zhang Chen poked out a head from the player's channel, he suddenly cheered. Although the fans in New York are very realistic, Zhang Chen's performance has planted a seed in their hearts. They know how to treat this attacking player correctly.
Zhang Chen also waved his arm in response to everyone, so the cheers were louder.
Zhang Chen has changed into the silver-white Knicks robe. There is a huge word New York on his chest, and behind him is the big No. 6 and his surname above. Zhang Chen is wearing this jersey, with an elbow guard in his right hand and a pair of handsome and simple Fengshen generation on his feet. Looking at Zhang Chen in this dress, he looks Everyone is also more excited.
Stepping on the glory of the wind god, Zhang Chen came to the basketball court step by step, and the DJ's voice also sounded in the crowd - "He is Zhang Chen, a player from an ancient country from the other side of the distant ocean! He won the title of Best Rookie last season! He is our wind god!"
DJ's voice is rich in infection and penetration, echoing throughout Madison Square for a long time. The sound is intertwined, and light and shadow meet. This is really the glory of a player.
Zhang Chen opened his arms and embraced this glory, but he himself also knew that New York fans are the most realistic fans. Even if they praise themselves so much now, if their performance disappoints them one day, they will not hesitate to boo you.
Randorff held his mouth and looked at Zhang Chen's welcome. He was a little annoyed. He didn't expect that Zhang Chen would be cheered by the fans here - after all, this guy hasn't really performed in front of New York fans. How could He be cheered so much when he played on the court? Will you still receive some boos?
Thinking of this, Randorff began to prepare to complain to his inside partner Edikuri, but Eddie seemed to have guessed his mind and had already gone up to prepare to jump the ball. Randorf hummed and stood in his position.
Zhang Chen's current position is still a shooting guard for the time being. Is the person in the small forward position Wilson? Chandler, Chandler's position is a little embarrassing, but he can also temporarily keep the starting position. Wilson Chandler accepted the result, and at the same time, he began to keep his starting position without being taken away by the new rookie.
Zhang Chen is the starter today. The audience can finally really understand Zhang Chen's ability. In the pre-season, Zhang Chen did not start once, which made them feel a little unfinished.
At the beginning of the jump ball, Edikuri and the opponent's center competed for the ball. The basketball kept rising high in the eyes of the two people. At the moment when the basketball just took off, the two people had already jumped into the air. After a contest between the two people, the huge Edi Curry still could not compete. The ball won, and the basketball came to the point guard of the Eagles. The Knicks' first ball in the regular season started!
The person Zhang Chen defended was Johnson. Johnson received a pass from the point guard just after arriving at half-time. It seems that the Eagles want to hand over the first ball of the season to Johnson to take care of. Johnson took two quick steps in front of Zhang Chen, and then accelerated directly to the right. He knew that Zhang Chen's physical condition was very bad, so he wanted to directly use the method of forced breakthrough to cut into the inside line.
The first step of the Eagle King took a big step forward, and the second step was to put his shoulders on Zhang Chen's chest fiercely. He thought that he should be able to support Zhang Chen. After all, he also directly opposite Zhang Chen last season, so he felt that Zhang Chen's physical quality should be more than enough to be pushed away by himself.
Who knew that the trouble came immediately. He found that he not only failed to open Zhang Chen, but on the contrary, a huge force came from Zhang Chen's chest, which could only be felt when he faced inside players. Suddenly, Johnson's breakthrough lost the opportunity, reluctantly put away the basketball, and almost let himself get rid of his basketball.
Johnson passed the basketball back to their point guard. At this time, he began to look at Zhang Chen again. However, he found that although the figure of this beautiful teenager had a streamlined beauty, he could not see any traces of explosive power, so he was a little entangled.
The first attack of the Eagles was given to Johnson, but it was pushed back by Zhang Chen with his chest, so the basketball was handed over to the inside line. In front of the eye defender Randolph, the ball could have been easily framed. Unfortunately, God did not favor the Eagles too much. The basketball missed the basket and was by Randolph. Brushed it down.
"Ah ha ha! I'll grab a rebound!" Randolph laughed, and then passed the basketball to Chris Duhon with nostalgic eyes - of course, we can see from his eyes that if his ball control skills are better, Randolph will never mind that he will carry the ball directly through the half-court by himself.
Randorff began to say to Eddy Curry, "Hey, Eddie, in fact, I think this ball may be directly controlled by me. Although no one has seen my ball control skills, I don't mind showing it once."
Eddie Curry said, "But that must be the beginning of your loss, I promise!"
Randorff snorted disdainfully and came to the inside card, and Du Hong's possession of the ball was almost robbed by Mike Bibi. Although he dodged the steal, he had to put away the basketball, so he passed the basketball to Zhang Chen's hand, according to the usual tactical exercise - although he was a point guard, He also had to admit in shame that his ball control skills were worse than Zhang Chen's.
So Zhang Chen showed his ball control skills in front of the Knicks fans - the basketball flew around his knees and thighs. He passed the veteran Bibby who wanted to steal a long distance with a **, and then he had come to the outside of the three-point line.
Then Zhang Chen passed the ball to Du Hong. After all, he has no organizational ability. Now the Knicks do not have the kind of team that is consistent and orderly, so it is best to leave the attack to the point guard to control.
"Give me the ball! That's the rebound I grabbed!" Randov hit a big man with his buttocks, found a little gap, and immediately shouted at Du Hong, who was a more traditional point guard. Seeing this situation, he immediately hung the basketball into the inside line. Then Randorff began to open the players and prepared his own layup.
However, the ball was a little biased, because the player who had just been opened by his big cup came back and blocked his offensive space, so the basketball tripped out and was grabbed by the Eagles.
Bibby did not launch a fast attack, but slowly controlled the ball through the half, which gave Randorff an opportunity to walk side by side with Zhang Chen. Now he seems to have forgotten Zhang Chen and his holiday and said, "I should have scored that goal, but unfortunately the damn guy is in front of me. To be honest, it should be a It's a foul. Unfortunately, the referee didn't see it.
Zhang Chen said oh and then began to defend Johnson. This time, Johnson learned to be obedient and did not choose to fight against Zhang Chen. Instead, he used two cross steps and came to the place near the free throw line with the help of blocking, and then stopped jumping and shot. His first shot this season was not very bright. The basketball was It flew out of the basket, and the rebound was caught by Wilson.
The Knicks don't have time at all and can't launch a fast attack - their position is extremely bad. Now if they forcibly start a fast attack, they will probably be intercepted by the opponent halfway.
The person who controlled the ball this time was Du Hong. After he came to the opponent's three-point line, he passed the basketball to Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen faced Johnson, who was a little shorter than himself, and made a ** dribble. The basketball alternated in his left and right hands. Then Zhang Chen suddenly stepped forward, and then he suddenly started from Johnson's left. I forced it in at hand!
Zhang Chen's speed was so fast that he had broken through Johnson's defense at the moment he took the first step. Then he took the second step, the man and the ball were united, and quickly came to the place near the free throw line. At this time, the other party's inside line came up to block one after another, and Zhang Chen took a jump and jumped away from these defensive players. .
Zhang Chen's jump is quite clever. It happens to grasp the rhythm point where the opposing player is too late to defend, which allows the opponent to only capture his last white silhouette, and then Zhang Chen jumps high to the basket.
The opponent's inside line wanted to go up and hit Zhang Chen's hand. Unfortunately, Zhang Chen's flight was full of a sense of power, and their right hand was quickly bounced off. Therefore, Zhang Chen came a dunk full of power. The basket creaked and soon became wobbly!
"Bum!"
The sound of slam dunk resounded through the court. After the audience was a little stunned, they all stood up and applauded.
Zhang Chen's debut began with such a big slam dunk. Compared with before, his dunk is full of strength, and the basket is wobbly, full of visual tension.
