Chapter 58 The next goal, Roy!

Chen Fei quickly recalled the opening match in his mind.

Throughout the game, the Rockets took the initiative for most of the time and were always in the lead.

Among them, there are reasons why the players performed well.

But it is undeniable that as the defending champion, the Lakers underestimated their opponents in the first game of the new season.

This also led to them not launching an attack on the Rockets' weak position at the beginning of the game.

The "little" lineup presented by Mark Jackson is an obvious weakness in the inside.

Although Tucker is tough and has excellent defensive awareness, he cannot always maintain strength due to his height.

This was very obvious after the Lakers began to attack the inside in the second half.

In other words, if yesterday was in the playoffs and the Purple and Gold Army attacked the inside from the beginning of the game, Tucker would likely be in foul trouble.

By then, the defensive system built by Mark Jackson will undoubtedly be greatly affected.

"The problem of center forward should be solved after Yao Ming returns."

"However, I still have to find a good substitute center just in case."

Chen Fei thought to himself.

Although he can use the system to heal Yao Ming's injuries, Chen Fei cannot guarantee that Yao Dayi can stay healthy until the end of the season.

After all, with the height and weight of the little giant, the risk of injury is much higher than that of ordinary players, even though he has lost a lot of weight in the past two months.

But today's league has not been affected by the Warriors' "small ball" trend, and all teams attach great importance to big centers.

Therefore, there are not many centers on the market who can play and are affordable, and Chen Fei really can't think of a suitable candidate for a while.

In addition to the inside, the Rockets currently have another shortcoming, which makes Chen Fei care more about - the lack of sharp-knife characters on the bench.

Looking at the bench of Aviation City, there are not many powerful players.

The defensive players include Tony Allen and Sean Bathirl, and Kevin Martin, Louis Scola, and the young Jeremy Lin.

In Shen Fei's view, the Rockets currently have sufficient defensive resources, but they still lack explosive points on the offensive end.

Kevin Martin has good scoring skills, but his style of play is relatively soft and he likes to make fouls.

This style of play may be very useful in the regular season, but in the playoffs, Martin will not be able to get so many whistles, and his strength will inevitably be greatly reduced.

Scola has excellent skills, but his physical fitness is average, and he is easily restricted when he reaches high-end games.

Jeremy Lin has great potential, but it will take some time before his strength during the "Lin Crazy" period.

"Are there any scoring masters who are willing to be substitute..."

Chen Fei tapped the desktop gently with his fingers, and his brain ran rapidly.

Finally, a name came to his mind - Brandon Roy!

The shooting guard, nicknamed "Huang Mamba", was once known as Kobe Bryant's successor.

But Roy's career was very bumpy.

As early as college, he had suffered several knee injuries.

The Trail Blazers were under a lot of pressure and brought him to Portland with the No. 6 draw.

After entering the NBA, Roy was injured continuously.

So far, his legs have undergone six surgeries in total, and the cartilage in his knees has completely disappeared.

In other words, every time Roy moves, the bones directly collide with the bones at his knees, rubbing, and there is no cartilage for cushioning!

Chen Fei recalled that Roy's knees could no longer withstand high-intensity competitions this year.

If it develops as usual, then in 2011, next year, he will announce his retirement due to injury.

[In a short while, Roy's trading value will drop to freezing point, you can try it out...]

Chen Fei thought to himself.

Asian young people admire Roy quite well in their previous lives.

If he and Oden were not troubled by injuries, the Trail Blazers might be able to form a Big Three squad of "Roy Oden Aldridge".

"Wait a little longer, if you remember correctly, Roy's knees will soon be out of reach after the start of the season..."

Chen Fei thought in his mind that after Roy was troubled by injuries in the future, he would trade him over and then use [Holy Light Healing] to help him recover.

At that time, the Rockets' bench will have an extra terrifying sharp knife!

............

Time flies, and the Rockets soon welcomed their second regular season opponent - the Golden State Warriors!

“go.warriors!”

“go.warriors!”

......

Before the game started, the fans of Oracle Center Arena showed the terrifying home atmosphere!

However, the Rockets players still stepped onto the field with ease.

The reason is very simple. In the opening game, they had just defeated the defending champion and were in full swing!

As the referee threw the ball high, the game officially began!

Today's Rockets' starting lineup is exactly the same as the first game.

The Warriors sent out: Stephen Curry, Monta Ellis, Dorrell White, David Lee and Biderlings.

Biderlins, who was in charge of jumping the ball, was tall and long, and won the game against Griffin.

The Warriors attack first!

Curry carried the ball and advanced through the half.

This year is his second season.

In the last month of last season, Curry performed well, vaguely surpassing Tyrek Evans to become the best rookie.

However, Curry is still in his childhood and his shooting choices are far less crazy than the future.

After halftime, he organized an offense at the top of the arc and passed the ball to the Warriors' current boss, Monta Ellis.

Ellis faces the Rockets' rookie Paul George.

As a scorer who averaged 25:05 per game last season, Ellis was full of confidence when facing George.

Although he is only 191cm tall, he is extremely fast and has super explosive power.

"Rookie, don't be scared by my speed."

Ellis smiled and spoke trash.

George was unmoved, his hands spread out, his center of gravity sinks, and he poses in a defensive position.

At this time, he was also very confident.

After all, at the last moment of the game, George defended Kobe's attack.

[I can defend all the players with the strongest offensive ability in the league, but are you afraid that you will be a second-rate star?]

Paul George thought to himself.

The next moment, Ellis moved!

His first step was fast and extremely explosive.

But strangely, George didn't panic at all.

Instead, he immediately adjusted his pace and moved horizontally to catch up.

Relying on his height and arm length, George quickly returned to his defensive position and forced Ellis to near the bottom line.

When she arrived at this position, Ellis' height disadvantage was fully exposed.

He couldn't see the basket or his teammates, so he could only worry in the corner.

Paul George took advantage of the victory and suddenly he stretched out his hand and pressed it on the basketball in Ellis' arms.

The two immediately fell into a tangled battle.

"Beep!"

The referee whistle sounds, scrambles the ball!

George smiled slightly and brimmed his teammates to celebrate this successful defense.

In fact, there is a reason why he has been so successful in dealing with Ellis' breakthrough.

During the two-month offseason, George has been playing against McGrady in training.

The first step of t-mac is much faster than Ellis!

............

In this jump, George easily won and obtained the ball rights for the Rockets.

Ellis was unhappy and stared at George while slowly retreating.

Seeing this, Curry couldn't help but remind the team's big brother: "Monta, don't worry, this newcomer has good physical fitness, don't fight with him."

"snort..."

Ellis shook his head, obviously not listening to the words.

In his opinion, George had just had good luck last round.

[Next time, I will definitely get back the scene!]

Ellis' competitive spirit was aroused.
Chapter completed!
