NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 156
The next day, the Bobcats, who came to their neighbor's home in Atlanta, had a third battle with the Eagles.

The two-game winning streak of the Bobcats was not hot yet, but it was terminated by the Eagles roaring and circling at home. After the game, the latest opponent with the Eagles had a record of 2 losses and 1 win, with more losses than wins.

This is another typical Bobcats losing game, and the Bobcats fans who chose to watch the live broadcast of this game seem to have watched the game against the Spurs again.

In this game, none of the two teams scored too high a score, and only one of them scored 1 points.

Chen Xiao scored 23 points for the Bobcats, and Devin Harris, the Guinness World Record holder for the fastest dribbling speed on the bench for the Eagles, scored 20 points.

The Eagles scored in double figures with 6 players, and made 5 three-pointers with nearly 15% of their three-pointers. Although it is still slightly inferior to the Spurs' 20 shots, this is already nearly two times their average number of three-pointers. doubled.

In the locker room after the game, Dunlap, who was smiling and happy yesterday because his tactics took effect to win the Clippers, put on a black face this time.

The blackness of the face complements the "Atlanta Hawks, <8<36%" written on the whiteboard brought to Atlanta.

In the silence, Middleton, Henderson, and Sessions, who performed well, waited quietly for the onslaught of the storm, and even had time to sneak a peek at the war criminals who started and came off the bench.

Of course I am Mu Gui in the starting lineup, Mullens is 8 in 1, and the iron rhythm is very unique.

First, it was 4 for 0 in the first quarter and a half, which made Dunlap directly want to give him a dnp, and then he opened up before the end of the halftime and pulled the coach. In the second half, there was another string of fine iron, which almost broke Dunlap's defense.

There is also a substitute, Gordon, who is slightly better than Mullens, 9 of 2, but the good is limited. In less than 15 minutes, he produced 7 pieces of refined iron in one breath.

But from the address, it can be seen that Chen Xiao still has a little understanding of Gordon. The reason is that apart from the fact that he has played a few times before, the poor performance this time may be affected by off-court factors.

……

According to the "Charlotte Observer" before the game today, Gordon's fiancée Sasha Smith was arrested.

After the Clippers lost in Charlotte yesterday, the Clippers players are still staying in Charlotte for the time being because the next game will be against the Bucks in Milwaukee not far from Charlotte three days later.

You have to find something to do while staying here, and the Clippers players who sang and danced, led by North Carolina native Paul, went to a nightclub in Charlotte to hold a party.

Chen Xiao and other Bobcats players want to leave for Atlanta immediately. Naturally, it is impossible to participate in the party organized by Paul, the vice chairman of the players union, who is well-known among the players.

But Tyrus Thomas' wife and Gordon's fiancée were invited.

If you participate, just participate, and don't change the color of Gordon's crew cut when you come back.

The hat should not be put on for Gordon, but Thomas' wife, who took the lead, was so drunk that she took the sisters around to buy it for zero yuan, and tried to snatch a woman's mobile phone and wallet outside the nightclub.

Here, Thomas has the second highest salary in the Bobcats, 800 million dollars a year. It is really incomprehensible for his wife to rob. It can only be said that he is so drunk?Get used to buying at zero yuan?

And Gordon is 1200 million dollars a year, the highest salary in the team.

The conscientious security guard called out with one hand. Paul’s location must be a rich area. The police arrived quickly and were about to arrest Thomas, Smith and others. Thomas was also very courageous.

Finally, the police stopped him forcibly, smashed the windows of the car and arrested them together, and found guns in the car.

If the gun had been moved before, the magazine might have been emptied.

……

The arrest of Thomas' wife has little impact on the Bobcats, after all, Thomas has not played since the start of the game.

However, Gordon's sluggish performance, which was affected by the arrest of his fiancée, caused the Bobcats to lose an important part of their bench, leaving Sessions' bench alone.

Both Mullens and Gordon became ghosts inside and outside, so Dunlap could only seek change.

Therefore, Reggie Williams and Hakeem Warrick, who were barely able to play in this game, and Jeff Adrian, who just arrived, all got some playing time, but several of them did not carry the "microwave oven" feature , does nothing.

Chen Xiao, who often looks at the team roster, can't help but want to change their names every time he sees Reggie, Hakeem, and Jeff.

Call Reggie Miller, Hakeem Olajuwon, Jeff Hornacek or Malone.

Then the Bobcats can consider their opponents in the finals in advance.

……

Back in Charlotte, the Hornets ushered in a visit from their neighbors across the sea on the evening of the 15th. They played against the Orlando Magic for the first time this season.

This season, the Magic has undergone a major change from beginning to end. Warcraft left Los Angeles, and the coach was replaced by Jacques Vaughn who has no head coaching experience.

But for now, the Magic's record of 9 wins, 13 losses and over 4% is not too bad. After all, the team's core record will inevitably fluctuate.

Recently, in an interview with Magic Vice President Pat Williams, he believed that the performance of the Magic during the offseason and at present is still okay. At least they did not trade Howard for Bynum, but for Vucevic and Aver Lalo.

This season, Bynum has not yet appeared due to a knee injury, and his comeback is still far away. In contrast, Afflalo's current scoring average is higher than last season's 15.2 points. Although his efficiency has declined, it is still within a reasonable range.

In the same position as Warcraft, Vucevic, who was traded from Philadelphia, was only 5+5 last season. After coming to Orlando this season to focus on training, he has reached an average of nearly double-doubles per game.

After being unable to complete the restricted three-point target in a row, Dunlap still insisted on writing "Orlando Magic, <6<33%" on the whiteboard the day before the game against the Magic.

In the face of the Magic, which is at the bottom of the three-point league, Dunlap still did not forget to mention the players during the pre-match mobilization:

"Magic, only averaged less than 33% three-pointers and less than 6.5 three-pointers per game. I hope we don't get shot by such a team.

Pay attention to the Magic's cross-running position, and don't give JJ Redick an easy run.

We are No. [-] in the Eastern Conference. Although the Knicks won the Lakers, they are still one game short of us. The game time is up, and now they are on the court to win the Magic. "

……

After the game started, Walker was the first to steal the ball that Afflalo had just passed to Vucevic in front of Chen Xiao's eyes, and immediately passed it to Middleton who had already activated beyond the three-point line.

Occasionally, I have the opportunity to experience Middleton who took the lead and rushed to the basket to face the defender and jumped up to show off his passing skills.

Passing the ball from behind to Walker who followed up quickly, Walker put both hands to score.

On the way back to defense, Chen Xiao was still curious and asked Walker why he didn't just dunk and learn to put the basket by himself.

The honest Walker told Chen Xiao that the running was too intense, the feet were a little soft, and the jumping was a little weak. In order not to dunk the neck, he was selected as one of O'Neal's top five embarrassments, so it was safe to change the dunk to release.

It may be rare to meet someone shorter than himself. Walker has a strong desire to attack against 183 man Nelson.

As for Paul in the first two games, Walker also has a strong desire to attack, but Paul is a first-defense player after all, and Walker played well, but his shooting percentage was a bit flat.

Walker received a pass from his teammate outside the three-point line, playing Nelson in singles. He took two steps and immediately received a jump shot with a sharp turn and a fallback.

Walker faced Nelson 6 shots in a single quarter, hit 4 shots and scored 8 points.

The 2 missed goals were corner three-pointers in his arsenal. The 4 breakthroughs and mid-range shots were all straightforward hits, no fouls, and no free throws.

Walker was overwhelmed, and the Heng team was sluggish. They scored 3 for 0 in a single quarter and swallowed zero eggs.

The overall performance of the outside line is passable, so it naturally depends on Chen Xiao's dominance inside the line.

Facing Vucevic with a youthful face and a beardless face, Chen Xiao showed no mercy.

After gesturing with Middleton, who was holding the ball on the outside, Chen Xiao squeezed Vucevic in front of him and entered the center of the paint area.

Turning around and covering Vucevic with a wide back, Middleton's pass has been hoisted with his hands open.

After catching the ball, he blasted it down with both hands, and at the same time slammed his hips back. Vucevic, who was pushed into the collision line, only saw Chen Xiao, who turned around, jumped up to grab the ball with his right hand and dunk it into the basket.

And just recovering from the force of the impact, he could only raise his hand to act as a qualified top ten ball background wall.

"Oh my god, Chen! Dunk dunk! I left a deep memory for second-year Nikola Vucevic, which will be unforgettable for this young man forever." The live commentator Knight danced with great enthusiasm shouted.

Naturally, this strong and weak game did not attract large broadcasters to conduct live broadcasts, but fans across the country and around the world will soon appreciate Chen Xiao's heroic demeanor from the league's official top ten shots.

Cough cough, Chen Xiao was a little embarrassed when he heard Knight's yelling, he jumped up and dunked with his right hand, it was simple and unpretentious.And we are also young people, first-year rookies, pure young people.

Although Vucevic can be said to have no power to fight back against Chen Xiao's singles, he still shows his value to a certain extent as he holds the ball at the free throw line and has a European inside passing technique.

Facing Chen Xiao with his arms spread out in front of him to cover the passing line, Vucevic swung left and turned right to send a second pass, and completed the connection with Redick who was running back from the baseline. Redick caught the ball and scored a layup. Additional penalties.

"Ha, the young man Nicola retaliated with a pass, and the assists were more than 3 points for 2 points. Chen, you need to work harder." Knight opened his big mouth and joked with his unique voice.

The Bobcats fans mobilized by the live commentary Knight shouted, hit one.

Chen Xiao, who listened to persuasion, naturally would not refuse the eager requests of the fans, let's play.

Smoothly came to the low position on the left, bent his hips and opened his left hand, firmly stuck Vucevic behind him, without Chen Xiao shouting, Middleton had even lobbed the ball over ahead of time, Chen Xiao raised his hand and the ball fell firmly into the hands.

Yes, Middleton and the fans have the same mentality, play one, play one.

Glancing at Vucevic behind him, seeing that he was standing upright and ready to defend, Chen Xiao tilted his head, scanned around, and after confirming that there was no problem, he dropped the ball and started to play.

"Boom", the chest was hit by a huge force, Vucevic leaned back, and couldn't help but adjust his footsteps in small steps, barely adjusted to prepare for Chen Xiao's next collision.

But Chen Xiao, who made a hit, sensed that the space behind him was exposed, and immediately turned around and squeezed the ball into the penalty area, raising his left hand to hit the board.

Hit back, turn around, hit the board.

Chen Xiao easily completed the attack in three steps, turned back to defend with a normal expression.
