I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 259 Coming to the End (Part [-])
On October 2010, 10, the NBA regular season kicked off.

The league has entered the second decade of the 21st century, and a new era is about to begin.

However, in the opening game, the schedule still arranges the most popular teams:

The Miami Heat played against the Boston Celtics, the Phoenix Suns played against the Portland Trail Blazers, and the Houston Rockets played against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Among them, the game between the Eastern upstart Heat and the Celtics is undoubtedly the most concerned.

After the crazy summer of 2010, the Heat, who were not a big team, became a popular candidate for the Eastern Conference championship.

They caught Chris Bosh, a big fish from Toronto, in free agency.

From the Grizzlies to Rudy Gay, an excellent scorer at the 3 position.

Inside, they left O'Neal and renewed Arroyo's contract in the backcourt.

With Bosh, Wade, and Gay as the iron triangle, experts and fans have the ability to rush to the championship.

The arrival of Bosh is considered to be the same as when Gasol went to the Lakers, giving Wade enough help.

Bosh averaged 24 points and 10 rebounds with the Raptors last season.

One of the most powerful power forwards in the league.

And his shooting style of play complements Wade's impact style of play.

Gay had just signed a long-term contract, but was immediately sent away by the Grizzlies to assist the Heat.

People commented that this is another warm-up activity for the Grizzlies after the big plus.

It's just that Grizzlies general manager Wallace believes that it is a correct choice to exchange young players who have just played for greater talents.

The media commented that he was poisoned by Smart. It is said that the two have been very close since the summer league last season.

It's hard to say that Wallace was not influenced by Smart. After all, the Clippers also made the magic operation of replacing Gordon with Harden.

The heat is like the sun rising from the south coast.

And Boston can't be said to be a sunset, and the area is no longer in full swing.

In addition to successfully keeping Ray Allen and Pierce in the Celtics summer.

The biggest move is the signing of Shaquille O'Neal in the free market.

Kendrick Perkins was injured and missed Game [-] of the Finals, indirectly causing the Celtics to lose the championship.

Perkins suffered a torn anterior and posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

The comeback is expected to resume in January next year.

The Celtics need a tank center to replace Perkins.

And the big shark in the league is undoubtedly the meatiest one.

Coincidentally, during the offseason, Riley also offered an olive branch to O'Neal.

The Heat also need a big center under the basket to guard the inside.

O'Neal also won a championship with the Heat, and re-partnering with Wade is an option.

As a result, O'Neill resolutely refused, and said, "A good horse never turns back."

Because Riley and O'Neill were torn faces at the beginning, how could O'Neill's character turn back.

Therefore, the Heat renewed the contract of O'Neal Jr., two former All-Star top insiders, and now they can only be blue-collars in the championship team.

The process of the game is as old as the ages of the players on both sides, a fierce defensive battle.

After 48 minutes of the game, the scores on both sides were pitifully low.

In the end, the Celtics, who played at home, were superior, beating the Heat by 87:82, 5 points, and won their first victory of the season.

Min Congda watched the live TV broadcast of the match between the two teams at home and carefully observed the two teams.

He thought, the defense of the Eastern Conference team is just for strength, and the Clippers have not been defended to death with these two moves?

I thought so in my heart, but when I wrote to Fan Chen after the game, Min Congda felt that the two teams played too rigidly.

Especially on the offensive end, on the Celtics side, Kevin Garnett's low-post offense disappeared due to aging.

The core routine of the Celtics' offense is Rondo Pierce Ray Allen's three-point rotation.

The result is that the Celtics' offense is relatively thin and lacks three-dimensionality.

The Heat's offensive problems are more serious, with a huge disconnect between Bosh and Wade.

It's basically going their separate ways, and Rudy Gay is clearly not a great glue.

The three fought on their own, and Gay's defense was a little poor, and he fell into a disadvantage in the one-on-one confrontation with Pierce.

However, the Heat are obviously very thoughtful on the defensive end, and they have a strong pressure on outsiders and the ball.

"It's enough to defend well. After all, defense wins championships."

Min Congda believes that these two strong teams are still very qualified, especially the Heat.

If the Audio-Technica works well together, even if they fight on their own, they can still achieve good results.

In 08, the Celtics' Big Three didn't have many offensive routines, and finally relied on defense and personal ability.

The second game was against the Suns and the Trail Blazers. The style of this game was different from the first game.

It's an offensive battle for the Western Conference teams.

After Stackmeier left, the Suns fell from the strong team in the West to the edge of the playoffs.

The sun strengthened in the summer, and they got Turkoglu and JJ-Hickson.

The idea of ​​the Suns management is very clear, that is, miniaturization, externalization, and making good use of Nash's last time.

Nash is 36 years old, and reaching the Western Conference Finals last season may be his last peak.

Although point guards generally get older and more demonic, but generally around 35 years old is a watershed.

A decline in physical fitness or a sudden attack from a serious injury will lead to a cliff-like decline.

In the first game of the new season, Nash was in a good state, and he rarely scored in the game.

He scored 19 points on 10 of 26 shots and only had 6 assists.

Because the biggest pie-eating machine has left for the Knicks.

The Suns lost Stoudemire, and the offensive end collapsed a lot.

And the introduction of Turkoglu's first performance was not very good.

The idea of ​​the sun is to reproduce the 2006 season when Stoudemire was reimbursed.

French magician Dior topped the center position and sent the Suns into the playoffs with a wonderful performance.

But the Turks and Dior are very different in style.

Diaw is a mid-axis player who is good at supporting and can push to the inside.

Turkoglu is a small forward at the third position, a turret plus a through machine.

The highlight of his career is the internal and external connection with Howard.

If the sun is Stoudemire, the Turkish agents can still play a role.

Stoudemire is gone, he's pretty much just an outside high fort.

In the Raptors, his combination with Bosh proved to be a failure, because Bosh is a projective insider and does not call.

The sun's attempt to reproduce the power of the Turkish scimitar is obviously a desperate attempt, and his defensive flaws have been magnified instead.

106:92, the Blazers with a neat lineup easily won a victory at the Moda Center.

Batum, who played against Turkoglu, scored 19 points and 11 rebounds.

The third match of the opening match was the Lake of Fire battle that many people were concerned about.

One important reason why it has attracted much attention is that Yao Ming will make a comeback in this game.

After regretting being reimbursed in the 09 playoffs, Yao Ming did not play in the entire 09-10 season.

After resting for a whole year and a half, he finally returned to the game in the anticipation of Chinese fans.

And the first opponent is the Los Angeles Lakers.

Compared with the season when he broke through the second round in 09, the people around Yao Ming have changed a lot.

Artest went to the opposite Lakers and won the championship.

McGrady was traded to the Knicks.

Brad Miller, who nearly got into a fight with him in the game, came to the team.

The little black bean Aaron Brooks has grown into the team's number one scorer and won the Most Improved Player.

In fact, Yao Ming himself has changed the most. He is no longer that low-post monster on the court.

In this game, Yao Ming played 24 minutes and scored 11 points in 4 of 9.

Relying on the strength of the team, the Rockets entangled with the Lakers until the last moment.

The Rockets have been leading the Lakers.

At the last moment, Lakers guard Steve Blake made a key three-pointer.

The Lakers overtook the score.

As for the Rockets, Scola missed a layup and Brooks failed to make the shot.

The Lakers won 112:110, which did not make the award night of this championship ring a losing night.

The Rockets fans were satisfied, and entangled with the Lakers until the last moment, and Yao Ming made a comeback.

But in fact, Yao Ming's career in the NBA is coming to an end.
