Chapter 209 Growth

The azure blue data is flickering, and there is no change in the frame at 78.

Before the start of the new season, this ability value is a standard starter data.

Under this, Qin Fei's badge also changed slightly.

Finishers: Dodge Finisher (Gold), Confronting Finisher (Gold), Throwing the Little Prince (Silver), Cutting Scorer (Bronze), Fast Break Finisher (Bronze)

Shooting category: Steady shooter (gold), spot-up shooter (silver), sports shooting expert (bronze), corner three-pointer (bronze), mid-range king (bronze)

Playmaking: First Step Master (Gold), Ankle Stopper (Silver), Transition Master (Silver), Ball Handling Specialist (Bronze), Gap Hunter (Bronze)

Defensive categories: Ball Stealing Specialist (Gold), Death Coil (Gold), Interceptor (Silver), Off Ball Runner (Silver), Defensive Deterrence (Bronze)

In addition, Qin Fei also has the most important talent badges, which are Iron Waist and Quick Response.

The overall development method is still balanced. Compared with last year, the total number has increased, and the level of some key badges has also been raised.

The strategy Qin Fei set for himself was to gain a foothold defensively and wait for an opportunity to seek a more important team position.

This move was right. After the first game, Qin Fei could clearly feel that there was a faint change in the team.

Slowly from the edge to the center.

In the next step, on the one hand, continue to improve the ability value, on the other hand, try to learn more offensive skills, and bring out all the abilities you should have.

Qin Fei remembered what Bob told him about strengthening singles.

It seems that George Karl has realized his ability in this area, and it should be the same in future games. After Payton is off the field, he will carry the team's first offensive banner.

After the end of the first day of the NBA regular season, the Sonics did not rest, and they faced the Dallas Mavericks directly on the second day.

This is the case every year at the beginning of the season, the beginning of the game is relatively intensive, and the mid-term is slightly slowed down.

The Mavericks' record last season was also not good, with 24 wins and 58 losses.

After sending away the 3J combination, the atmosphere of the team has been revived, but the combat power is really not good.

The team's current head coach is Jim Clemons.

This coach was Phil Jackson's former assistant coach. After helping the Bulls win 72 wins and 10 losses and the fourth championship, he was tapped by the old Nelson to the Mavericks as the head coach.

Because the Mavericks are basically a rebuilding team, the Mavericks' lineup has changed a lot compared to last season.

Luckily Michael Finley is still around.

In the latter part of last season, Michael Finley played a lot of wonderful performances. After coming to the Mavericks, his personal scoring average has increased.

Michael Finley, who is already in the third grade this season, has been clearly identified by Coach Jim as the team's first offensive point.

However, in the last game, the Mavericks narrowly beat the Grizzlies in an away game. Finley didn't have an explosive output. He only scored 16 points in the game, which was almost the same as last season's scoring average.

Coming to Seattle from Vancouver, the Mavericks are back-to-back games.

Although the Sonics also played the second game within 24 hours, it was a home game after all, and their fatigue was not as strong as that of the Mavericks.

Facing the supersonics, the top team in the west, the whole team of the Mavericks is ready and attaches great importance to it.

When he came to Seattle before the start of the game, the team coach accepted an interview with the local media.

"It's a tough game, but we'll still find a way to win because that's what competitive sports is and why we're here."

That night, the attendance rate in the key arena was still very high.

After the Mavericks team entered the arena, they found that many fans were wearing green clothes.

However, unlike the continuous playoffs, most fans are still wearing ordinary clothes, so it looks like there are green dots everywhere.

Before the players come on the field, the coaches on both sides are making the final arrangements.

On this day, Bob Blackburn, an old supersonic microphone who was about to retire, specially explained the game.

Bob was the team commentator when the Supersonics entered the NBA in the 60s. Until now, he has a high reputation in Seattle. Many fans know that there is such a voice of the Supersonics who specializes in commenting for the team.

He speaks passionately and analyzes the game well.

When talking about the strength gap between the two teams, Bob clearly stood on the side of the Sonics.

"The Sonics are the top team in the league, and the Mavericks are just a young team. For the Mavericks, if they want to reach the strength of the Sonics, they have to put in a lot of effort."

The starters of both sides came on stage.

The Supersonics started the first game, Payton, Qin Fei, Schramf, Kemp and Geiger.

The Mavericks' starters from No. 191 to No. 90 are Harris Levi's (196, 83 kg), Hubert Davis (201, 98 kg), Michael Finley (206, 100 kg), AC Green (229, 107 kg) and Sean Bradley ([-], [-] kg).

The two backcourts are a bit unfamiliar. Hubert Davis, who is facing Qin Fei, was selected with the 92th overall pick in 20. He is 27 years old this year and is a new aid introduced by the Mavericks in the off-season.

Schramff and Bradley are still compatriots from the same country, and the two met and greeted each other for a while.

Then Bradley stood in the middle circle and Geiger, who was a circle stronger than him, jumped the ball.

Although Bradley is thin, he is very tall, the highest in the league. In the 90s, he was not the best center, but he was definitely a first-class defensive frame player. So far, he has averaged more than 3 blocks per game in his career.

If there was a template for Jim of the Sonics, it would be Bradley.

With such a tall man jumping the ball, Geiger either had a very good timing, otherwise he had no chance of winning at all.

The two jumped almost at the same time, and Bradley touched the basketball first.

Pointing back to the backcourt players, the Mavericks started their first offense amidst the noise of the audience.

The Mavericks' coach Jim came out of Phil Jackson's team and is actually the most familiar with the triangle offense. He wanted to help the Mavericks build such a system, but there were no such players. Until this summer, Michael Finley seemed to have such a talent.

Jim was overjoyed and firmly followed such a path.

Finley quickly got the ball in the low post on the right, and he could choose to play Schramf with his back.

But that's not his specialty. After taking the ball, he turned around and singled out Schramf face-to-face.

Good guy, the range of motion is really big. As soon as Schramf adjusted his center of gravity, Finley made a shot, and the shot came with a fallback.

This action was done in one go, and Schramf's single-defense ability is considered outstanding, but he didn't have time to interfere.

It's a pity that the strength of the shot was a little stronger, and the basketball came out of the frame.

Bradley is quite tall at the basket, but when he was grabbing a rebound, he suddenly found that there were people pinching him from both front and back.

"Who?"

He couldn't even jump, and Geiger reached out and took the rebound.

Bradley turned his head and saw the back of No.18 who turned his head and ran wildly.

"Is it so energetic?"

Bradley was depressed. Although he was lacking in strength, it was rare for two people to be stuck on the ground and unable to move, and the one outside who pinched him was an outside player.

Payton held the ball and beckoned Kemp to come out for a high pick-and-roll.

The Sonics chose the most classic tactics for their first offense.

Qin Fei moved from the bottom corner position to 45 degrees. At this time, Payton and Kemp finished their high-quality pick-and-roll tactics, and the Mavericks doubled up on him.

AC Green felt bad and immediately retreated to defend. At this time, Kemp had already cut to the basket, Payton handed the lob to Kemp, and Bradley raised his arms in front of him to help defend.

Camp jumped up recklessly, wanting to buckle the "big bamboo pole".

"clang!"

The distance was too far, and the strength was not well grasped, so it was directly buckled and flew.

Bradley was hit in the ribs by Kemp and gasped in pain.

The flying basketball bounced out, but it still fell into the hands of the Supersonics.

At this time, Payton transferred to Qin Fei, and Qin Fei stood directly outside the three-point line. He raised his hand and made a three-pointer. He shot very decisively!
