NBA: I really just want to make money

Because Kwame Brown continues to be absent due to injury, the Lakers can only use Chris Mihm and Odom to partner in the paint. The effect can only be said to be average. The former belongs to the kind of"almost" gentleman who knows everything but is good at nothing.

Odom is also a talent...Oh no, he is an all-rounder, and more comprehensive than Mim. He has good abilities in all aspects, but he is not top-notch. As a big man with a height of 2.08 meters, except for the big center, which is a little less interesting, the other four Suitable for all positions.

In this era when most teams in the league still focus on the inside, such a big man is, at best, an all-around player, but at worst, he is not doing his job properly, and his style is somewhat incompatible with this era.

If it were true in the small ball era, Odom would definitely be a perfectly suited inside player, and he would have no problem becoming an All-Star.

Because he is not an inside player in the traditional sense, Zen Master did not let him fight with people in the inside. He hoped that he could stand in a high position and connect the team while protecting the team's backcourt rebounds. role, with his passing organization ability, he is fully qualified for this position.......

But Odom prefers to play with the ball rather than playing without the ball. He is also a player who needs the ball to thrive. When he is on the court with Kobe at the same time, the existence of the Black Mamba actually affects him to a certain extent. There are restrictions on it.

If there is an inside player who can replace Odom as a high-position dispatcher, then he can be liberated.

He can even be put directly on the bench and become the team's best sixth man. Only in this way can Odom's strength and role be maximized.

It's just that Zen Master hasn't found such a player yet.

Chen Hao said that he knows that there is a player who is extremely suitable, even perfect, but he cannot say yet.

After all, he is a newcomer who has just joined the team. Even though he has a close relationship with Kobe and is also a good friend with Odom, the coaching staff and management are very optimistic about it, but to be involved in the selection of players, the current team is also Only Kobe is so qualified.

Once he intervened, the nature was different, and it even affected his current position and good development in the team.

Chen Hao, who understands this, can only be a quiet little angel, but sometimes he feels a little uncomfortable.

Returning to the game~

The offensive end of the inside combination of Mihm and Odom is pretty good, but the defensive end is a bit too weak. With the team's current player configuration, this problem cannot be solved, and they can only wait for praise. Maybulang is back

"Little brother, Brother Hao misses you~"

Chen Hao stepped into the court, put his right fingers on his chest, and his left hand pointed at the Kwame Brown jersey on the bench, praying secretly.

So. The performance was immediately shown on the screen by the broadcast camera.

It was very surprising. What was Chen Hao doing?

Seeing this scene, he has been recuperating at home and always paying attention to the praise of the team's games. Mei Brown understood it immediately, and was very touched. It turned out that she was a person who was needed, and she secretly made up her mind to recover quickly and return to the court to help Brother Hao!

Xiao! At the forward position, the Lakers still sent Brian Cook.

When this guy came on the field, he came over again and said something flattering:

"Hao, I will try my best to get out of position~"

"As long as there is a chance for you, I will pass the ball over as soon as possible~" Chen Hao patted Cook on the shoulder.

The meaning is obvious, the younger brother performs well, the older brother is always watching you.

Sitting on the bench Luke Walton expressed his resentment. He had been promised this before, but was ignored by the audience.

Hearing this, Cook was very happy. His playing time in the team has always been unstable. He took advantage of the opportunity to praise now. May Brown is injured, he must prove his worth and strive for more playing time.

An NBA player who does not pursue playing time is not a good player.

On the back line, Chen Hao and Kobe are still partnered

"Hao, that rookie seems to have set his sights on you, so be careful~"

Following Kobe's gaze, what caught his eye was Deron Williams' eyes full of fighting spirit, and Chen Hao smiled faintly. :

"He's just a first-year rookie, don't pay attention~"

He said this, but Chen Hao paid special attention to it.

Hearing this, Kobe shrugged and didn't say much. He believed that Chen Hao would not let him Disappointed, although Chen Hao is only a first-year rookie!

Looking at the opponent's half~ he found that the Jazz's lineup looked a bit weird~

Memet Okur and Greg Ostertag Partnering inside, Matt Halprin is a small forward, and Deron and Gordon Jirisek form a back line.

The AK47 that was analyzed before the game and expressed that he wanted ~Andrei Kirilenko is sitting on the bench. Guilty.

It makes people very curious. Sloan actually trusted Ostertag, and he actually became the starter.

""Beep~"

A whistle sounded, and the game officially started. The ball was thrown straight into the sky. Ostertag touched the basketball first and dialed it to his own half. The Jazz organized an attack. Chen Hao immediately He stepped forward to fight with Deron.

There were no words or provocations. There seemed to be silence between the two. Only the rhythmic sound of dribbling kept rising and falling in their ears.

Seeing the right opportunity, Chen Hao deliberately exposed a flaw. , Deron got in without thinking twice, broke into the three-point line from the right, and stepped into it in the blink of an eye. Seeing that he was about to completely get rid of the defense, Chen Hao suddenly made a counterattack.

His left hand Suddenly he pulled back and touched the basketball with great precision.

"Not good~"

Deron's expression changed, and he hurriedly tried to protect the ball, but he could no longer change the fact that he had lost the ball.

Cook got the basketball and immediately passed it over.

The offense and defense switched, and the Lakers attacked, with Chen Hao taking the lead. , controlling the ball and advancing quickly, facing Deron who was catching up and blocking him, he made a prayer move, shook Deron's center of gravity, broke into the three-point line, and passed the ball to Kobe, who was cutting inside.

The latter took the ball After passing the ball, he didn't stick to the ball at all and passed it back directly. The basketball fell into Chen Hao's hands accurately. Facing the opponents who were all a beat behind, he easily hit the layup. shotime!

Smooth cooperation and smooth movement. , scoring cleanly, everything was so logical and natural. Chen Hao and Kobe high-fived each other, and they cooperated more and more with each other. Odom, who was standing in a high position, preparing to catch the ball and connect the team, felt lonely after waiting. , I didn’t even see the shadow of the ball, but I was happy to be quiet and mix it up.

It was Deron who controlled the ball again. This time, Chen Hao did not take a half-step to defend, but directly chose a pressing and pressing defense.

Just now In that round, he had already grasped Deron's current level of confrontation. He might be a little better than him, but only a little bit, and it was not completely unbearable.

If it were Deron at his peak, he would definitely not be able to withstand it. Such defense, but Deron has just joined the league and his core strength has not yet improved. In terms of breakthroughs, he still has the habit of showing off in the college league. Chen Hao said that his opponent is still too young. It was the first time he encountered him in the league. Deron was very uncomfortable with this kind of intensity and style of defense.

Fortunately, Ostertag stepped forward in time to help block Chen Hao, and he was able to get rid of the entanglement, and the importance he attached to Chen Hao in his heart increased rapidly.

Being able to play with a very special He joined the league as a draft pick and was very popular, ranking second on the best rookie list. It can only be said that Chen Hao does have real abilities. He was too confident before and underestimated others.

Players who can enter the league and become a starter, which one is not a genius, and which one does not have a brush.

Adjusting his mentality, Deron corrected his attitude.

He broke into the inside, faced Mim's defense, flicked his right hand, and followed the established tactical system. He was about to pass the ball to Okur, who was pulling down the outside line. But as soon as the basketball came off his fingertips, Chen Hao, who had never given up on defense, suddenly appeared on the passing line.

"Why is that guy there?!"Deron was shocked.

The basketball was stolen directly.

The Lakers fast break ~

Chen Hao is in the center, Kobe is on the left, Odom is on the right, and the fast break trident rushes forward crazily.

On the Jazz team, only Gordon and Matt... Halprin returned to defense in time, but was unable to stop the three-point fast break with the strength of two people. Chen Hao made a gesture and passed the ball to Kobe, causing the two people to subconsciously gather around Kobe, and then made a long-distance pass to the ground. Put the basketball in Odom's hands

"nice shot~！"

After receiving the pass comfortably, Odom took three steps and rushed directly into the penalty area. He scored with a one-handed dunk. After landing, he ignored the wild boos on the scene and gave Chen Hao a thumbs up. Chen Hao also followed suit. In this way, Kobe expressed his loneliness.

In this regard, Chen Hao said that there is no good way. There is only one ball. It is impossible for both of them to be satisfied. They can only sacrifice the little brother of Black Mamba.

~4:0

Relying on Chen Hao's outstanding performance on both offense and defense, the Lakers suppressed the Jazz's arrogance at the beginning and turned against the visitors!

After losing the ball twice and facing Chen Hao's almost crazy marking again, Deron became more and more cautious. He did not lose the ball again, but it caused the Jazz's offensive rhythm to be greatly affected. Influence.

Okur missed a shot from beyond the three-point line, and Odom protected the backboard.

The moment he received the pass, Chen Hao felt a hand reaching out from his side. He reacted very quickly, dribbling the ball under his hips and changing direction, and dodged it directly, wiping the passerby's side. , instigating the Lakers to launch an attack

"hateful!"

Looking at Chen Hao's back, Deron expressed his dissatisfaction!

Ignoring this, after halftime, Chen Hao looked at the positions of his teammates on the court. Without stopping, he rushed directly into the Jazz inside line, but He didn't take a shot, but walked around and jumped up to shoot, but he quickly threw the basketball to Cook, who was unmarked on the baseline.

The latter caught the ball and shot.~

""Whoa~"

With a crisp sound, the basketball passed through the net and hit a three-pointer!

In just a few rounds, Chen Hao scored 2 points, 2 steals and 2 assists. His performance was outstanding.

Even Kobe Bryant was outstanding. It was impossible to overshadow him.

Looking at Chen Hao, who looked very calm on the court, Jerry Sloan had a vague feeling of seeing a young version of Stockton.

The difference is that Chen Hao's defensive ability is more Aggressive, stronger tackling ability, good looks...Well, he's also more handsome.

Then he looked at Deron Williams, who he had high hopes for, and hoped to form the team's new inside and outside core combination with Boozer. The gap was obvious. Sloan felt that he still needed to teach this little guy.

As a rookie who joined the league in his first year, Chen Hao is undoubtedly more mature.

Even if they are both geniuses, there really is no comparison between people!

So here comes the cliché question, why doesn’t a player who can suppress the No. 3 pick in the same class not participate in the draft?

Sloan said that if Chen Hao was available, he would not choose Delong.

In contrast, Chen Hao's playing style and personality characteristics are undoubtedly more suitable for his tactics.

Unfortunately, it's all too late now.

Looking at the KFC grandpa sitting on the Lakers bench, Sloan said that he was really envious.

Regarding this kind of look, Phil Jackson said that he has long been used to it.

During the Bulls period, other coaches in the league envied him for having Jordan, Pippen, and later Rodman, who formed a lineup of the Big Three.

The morale of the Lakers team, before there was the OK combination, and later there was the F4 Chinese lineup.

Now it seems that the Lakers have finally declined, but Kobe has shown unparalleled scoring ability. The team has also acquired a top role player like Chen Hao at almost no cost, as well as a comprehensive left-handed magician. The three of them are still in their prime, and the future can be said to be bright~

Zen Master said that luck is also a part of strength! _To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download it
