Chapter 134
The performance of the Nets, which got the No. [-] pick at the end of last season, gives people the feeling that they are not satisfied with only one No. [-] pick, and they plan to draw another No. [-] pick at the end of this season.

In other words, after the new top pick Kenyon Martin joined the team, their results were terrible.

Of course, the injuries they suffered are also one of the reasons for the poor record. Among them, Keith Van Horn, the team's No. [-] man, lost his previous bravery due to injuries.

In this game, Zhang Chen is more looking forward to Jamison's performance against a power forward with good physical fitness like Martin.

The situation on the court made him feel at ease, but Martin has a good body and is relatively active in defense. But when facing the calm Jamison, the player who has just entered the NBA is always deceived by Jamison's comprehensive offensive skills. Too many fouls resulted in not even playing the full 30 minutes.

Marbury is indeed good, but he is too sticky to the ball, which relieves a lot of pressure on the Warriors' defense.

Because of his long possessions, the Warriors' defense can be very targeted.

The target is Zhang Chen's half-court marking. Before Larry Hughes comes back, he will take care of all the powerful players in that position on the outside.

Like Francis, Marbury is also a one-on-one fan.

Zhang Chen just clicked a little, and the other party aggressively tried to blow him up.

Marbury is not very heavy, but his strength is not small. It is no problem to bully ordinary defenders, but when he meets Zhang Chen, he must be a little bit worse.

The breakthrough is very good, and the shooting is also very good, but this ability is not enough to cause Zhang Chen a lot of trouble, because he has defended better.

The ending was predictable. After Zhang Chen suppressed Marbury, the situation on the court was completely controlled by the Warriors. The final score was 103:92, and the Warriors won four consecutive victories.

On January 1, Zhang Chen set foot on the home court of Miami for the first time this season, the place where he used to enjoy cheering.

However, this time, he was greeted with huge boos.

Because of love and hatred, many fans in Miami did not forgive Zhang Chen for leaving. Although in the commercial league of the NBA, it is not uncommon for players to change teams, but this does not prevent extreme players from feeling that he is a traitor.

Originally, he already had a high resistance to booing.

But this time in Miami, it's completely different, and he still has affection for the fans here.

He even saw angry expressions on familiar faces facing him in the crowd, and he felt as if something was stuck in his heart, and he panicked.

He wasn't in good shape the whole game, and this was the first time he was nearly unable to play due to mood swings.

At 78:88, the Warriors' winning streak was suspended again. Without Zhang Chen's performance, the Warriors' offense was like sleepwalking. If the Heat were not an offensive team, they would definitely be bloodbathed.

The game was physically and mentally exhausting. After the game, Zhang Chen sneaked into the system.

Bored, he sat on Xiaoye's special chaise longue, "Xiaoye, hurry up and comfort me."

"You asked for it yourself, the traitor who left the team for money, has this comforted you?"

"I'm comforted, I feel much better. I save a poor girl in order to earn more money. What a noble sentiment. What if the girl insists on giving her body..."

Xiao Ye kicked it over and shouted, "Don't touch my sofa..."

Zhang Chen lay facelessly on the ground. In fact, in the system, the ground is very clean.

"I didn't expect you to be entangled in this. You brought two championships to this city. They should welcome you warmly. I think Pat Riley misled the fans. You should put it in front of the reporters. Just make it clear that you don't owe them anything."

For Zhang Chen being booed by the fans, Xiao Ye was actually quite angry. She is also familiar with the existence of the original history. Without Zhang Chen, there would be no Heat who were invincible in the previous two seasons.

"It's not necessary. The fans are just excited for a while. Don't hate me after a long time. It's possible to forget me. Every team will always have new heroes."

"Don't you see clearly, why are you so depressed?"

Zhang Chen sighed, "Will you not be depressed if you understand it? I'm not a robot. However, this situation will only happen once, and I won't have any problems when I come back next time."

Xiao Ye showed contempt in her eyes, "You have such a good quality in your heart, so why do you want me to comfort you when you come here?"

Zhang Chen pretended to think about it, then opened his arms, "I want to hug."

I thought I would welcome a girl's pink fist, but I didn't expect to receive a hug.

It felt weird, but that was after.

At that time, Zhang Chen only felt warmth, maybe the simulation of this system was too real.

It's really much better, people are really afraid of lonely animals.

At that time, Zhang Chen couldn't fully feel whether his mood when he left the Heat was mixed with other things. to hope.

In fact, if you think back carefully about the scenes during the game, some fans still welcome him, and some hope that he can go back. This is probably one of the reasons for his abnormal performance.

When he appeared at the team's training ground the next day, Zhang Chen had completely returned to normal.

"Zhang, did you feel unwell yesterday, are you okay..."

"Look at your crow's mouth, it's definitely fine. With Zhang's body, a little problem will be fine soon."

The concern of his teammates made him feel better, and he was full of fighting spirit immediately.

On the 12th, they came to Atlanta to play against the Eagles, the fourth opponent of this road trip.

The current record of the Eagles is also very bad. Their current core is the second-year rookie Jason Terry. Although Terry is a good player, it is a bit difficult for him to lead a team forward.

Mutombo was very unhappy in the Hawks, and his help to the team was only rebounds and blocks. The rumors about his trade have never stopped.

But even so, his defensive ability is not a small threat to the Warriors.

Zhang Chen faced the attacking point guard again. This is the fourth offensive point guard he has defended during this period. Although everyone has different characteristics, he has also summed up his own set of experiences.

To defend defenders who are shorter than you, keeping pace is the first element.

Although Jason Terry can be regarded as the only scoring strength of the Eagles, he still has a gap in ability compared with Francis and Marbury. His shooting is somewhat similar to that of "Fan Crazy", but he has his own unique Rhythm.

Unfortunately, Zhang Chen, who was very unhappy in the previous game, broke out this time, dropping Terry's defensive shooting rate by nearly ten percentage points, and the Eagles' attack system also collapsed.

At 107:91, the Warriors beat the Eagles. Zhang Chen performed strongly, scoring 40 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 steals and 4 blocks, shining in the audience.

On the 14th, the Warriors came to Orlando to challenge the last opponent of this road trip, the Magic.

Meeting McGrady again, Zhang Chen was severely tested.

He can limit McGrady, but his offense is also affected to a certain extent. The Magic is a very strong outside team. Even if he surpasses Tracy McGrady in terms of contribution to the team, Armstrong and Mike Miller are very Well fulfilled the role of McGrady's assistant.

104:111, the Warriors lost another game.

The results of the five consecutive away games were not as good as Zhang Chen hoped.

But what is surprising is that due to the poor record of the Blazers in these few games, they were promoted to seventh in the Western Conference. This result is also a bit dumbfounding.

But after returning to the home court, Blaylock is ready to come back. He is an old problem, and he will not become lively if he rests. Now his comeback has taken longer than expected.

For Larry Hughes, the team means to let him practice together with the team for a period of time. His style of play must have no problems before he can come back, otherwise it will not be of great help to the team.

What's more, the results of the second round of voting for the All-Stars came out.

Carter has the most votes, which is close to 100 million, but Zhang Chen, Iverson, O'Neal and Kobe are not far behind Carter.

Turned out to be one of the five people who might compete for the vote king, Zhang Chen's mind became active.

His fans on the other side of the ocean should support him unconditionally, but the fans in the United States may need a little stimulation to explode.

Did he sign up for the slam dunk contest? Does he know that this slam dunk contest is very mediocre.

However, he no longer has the enthusiasm to win an All-Star award as much as last season. He no longer needs to use the All-Star entertainment game to prove his strength, especially after learning that the All-Star won the award. After the increased lottery chance can only get all-star entertainment props, his interest is even lower.

He is also considered a big name now, if he is stepped on by a small player in the three-point contest or dunk contest, it would be so boring, it would be better to sit on the sidelines and watch the excitement.

In fact, he has already received invitations to participate in two competitions. Choosing to participate may increase his popularity for a short time. If he achieves good results, it may bring more attention to the Warriors.

But it will also be criticized. For example, he didn't dare to participate in the dunk contest last season, and this season he was picky. The most valuable player in the two finals is a very hateful thing.

In addition, now that he is the core of a team, there are even more issues to consider, such as whether participating in too many All-Star games will affect the normal game, will it increase the risk of injury, will the key be Let the team worry that he will have such problems and so on.

For the sake of prudence, Zhang Chen didn't allow himself to make a decision so quickly.

The key is to play well the current game first. Dampier and others are also recovering well. If there is no problem, their staffing in the second half of the season will not be too big a problem.
