NBA: A collection of super busts

Chapter 78 Look! What makes a qualified younger brother!

TNT not only broadcast the game live across the US tonight, but also brought in their most representative duo from recent years to commentate on it.

Former superstar Charles Barkley confidently stated before the game: "While this game may not be enough to definitively prove whether these hyped-up rookies are busts or not, it is a good opportunity for us to get a preliminary understanding of them."

"I believe tonight is the first time many fans have seen these players play, especially Milicic. I have to admit, I've never seen this Garnett-Duncan combination play before."

Kenny said, "These newcomers tonight are all worth watching and analyzing carefully! James is said to be a combination of Magic Johnson and Pippen, but those who have watched him play say he can also score, and that he's more like a combination of Magic Johnson and Wilkins."

"Ye's initial comparison was Kenyon Martin, but after a few months, people now prefer to see him as a defensive version of Shawn Kemp or Amar'e Stoudemire."

"If these three lads can all perform as expected... Charles, your title as the strongest rookie class in history (Class of '84) is in jeopardy."

"It's too early to talk about that now!" Barkley said. "They need to get past levels 96 and even 99 first!"

While the two were discussing, both teams' players had already taken to the field.

The first match of the Summer League is about to begin!

Milicic, sporting a head of flamboyant blond hair, chewed gum with a relaxed expression. He had absolute confidence in the Summer League!

He was not afraid of Ye Feng, who was about to face him!

Milicic didn't care about Ye Feng's "wanted criminal" label. He walked up to Ye Feng and provocatively said, "Kid, I heard you almost joined the Nuggets? But because I'm better, more handsome, taller, and stronger than you, the Nuggets treated you like a piece of trash and dumped you?"

"Maybe they chose you because you're faster, shorter, and tighter?" Ye Feng said with a smirk. "You can understand what I'm saying, right? After all, your accent is full of poverty. If you don't understand my analogy, I can explain it to you more clearly."

"Tonight, you'll understand why I was chosen third overall, and you're stuck below me! I'm going to fuck you to death!"

"Before that, you'll have to get past me!" Before Ye Feng could speak, Haslem stepped forward and stood in front of him. Although he was significantly shorter than the two men, he was incredibly defiant: "You have no right to touch him until I'm a corpse!"

Look at that, that's what a qualified bro looks like!

With Haslem around, Ye Feng felt he probably wouldn't have many more opportunities to make a move in the future.

This guy can handle most difficult opponents.

"Sissy!" Milicic was clearly startled by Haslem and took a step back. Then, realizing what had happened, he quickly cursed and turned away, returning to his team's formation.

At this moment, the referee had already walked to the center of the field. After greeting both teams of players, the match officially began!

Milicic and Ye Feng stood in the center circle and jumped at the same time.

But Ye Feng's speed and reaction were clearly faster than Milicic's, and he slapped the ball to his teammate.

Tonight, James, who plays point guard, was in no hurry after receiving the ball. He showed none of the impatience that high school students should have. He dribbled the ball up the court himself and then signaled to his teammates to spread out.

He ignored Ye Feng's call for the ball in the low post for the first ball. He considered himself the team leader and wanted to do it himself for the first ball!

James dribbled between his legs repeatedly beyond the three-point line. His posture looked somewhat awkward, but there was no denying that his physical attributes were truly terrifying.

Facing an unknown Nuggets defender, he sprinted forward, blew past the defender in one step, and charged toward the basket.

"Oh dear, it seems like James isn't very confident in his shooting!" Barkley immediately said. "Actually, the entire mid-range area is a huge space, and the Nuggets don't seem to have any intention or idea of ​​helping on defense."

"If he had just taken the shot, it would have been much easier. I think that's the difference between high school and professional leagues. In high school, you don't need to hone your skills or push yourself to the limit to become the best athlete in the state or even the country."

"But in the NBA, that's far from enough."

James drove past the defender and went straight for the basket. He jumped up in front of Milicic, who was helping him defend, and held the ball high with one hand, as if he wanted to compete with Milicic in height. There must be competition among the top rookies, and no one is willing to be second to anyone else!

James needs to prove that his first overall pick was well-deserved, and Milicic also needs to prove that he is no worse than anyone else.

After a fierce head-on collision in the air, Milicic finally failed to reach the basketball in James' hands and could only watch as the ball whistled past his ear and slammed heavily onto the rim.

It didn't go in!

His interference worked; James' dunk went completely out of bounds.

But the next moment, Milicic's happiness vanished in an instant.

Because a tall figure behind him seized the opportunity to jump, caught the high-flying basketball in mid-air, and then smashed it directly into the basket!

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the Grizzlies took the lead!

The fans at the scene were instantly filled with excitement.

This opening round was so exciting!

One attempt at a dunk, another a powerful leap after grabbing the rebound.

That's the real reason they spend $40 to watch a Summer League game!

"Great assist!" Ye Feng, who had just dunked, reached out his hand to James.

James really didn't want to high-five this sly fox with a wicked grin, but looking at Ye Feng's harmless smile and the cameras broadcasting live across the United States, James still forced himself to reach out and high-five Ye Feng.

"It seems these two young men are working together quite well!" Barkley said. "They seem to have great chemistry. If these two can continue to cooperate effectively, the Grizzlies might actually be able to create something big!"

As they were talking, the Nuggets' offense had already reached the frontcourt, and Milicic naturally moved to the low post to back down and then reached out for the ball.

The Nuggets don't have any other rookies this year besides him, so naturally everyone will play around him, let him feel comfortable and relaxed first, and then it's time for others to take the shot.

If someone doesn't pass the ball to him and only thinks about showing off, the coach won't hesitate to immediately substitute that idiot.

After receiving the ball, Milicic immediately taunted, "Watch me pound you first, then that sissy behind you!"
