Chapter 438 Toughness
"Beep-"

The buzzer sounded, and Qin Fei walked onto the court.

The craze for promulgating the championship banner and rings has not yet passed, and the fans at the scene made deafening noises and cheers. This is the new season they have been looking forward to for a long time!
Qin Fei glanced at the blue box, and the overall score reached 95 points!
In the playoffs of last season, his attributes increased a lot. After a little practice in the offseason, his overall rating attributes reached 95 today.

In addition, there are four talent badges.

[Iron Waist], [Perpetual Motion Machine], [Quick Response], [Toughness]

[Toughness]: You have a tough physique, become less prone to injury, and have extraordinary recovery ability.

The top three talent badges are the top talents that Qin Fei obtained before. A few months ago, Qin Fei won the championship and won the talent badge of [Toughness].

Resilience is also a hidden attribute, but it does exist.

Many players in the NBA are not afraid of failure, neglect, lack of opportunity, but injury.

Once affected by injuries, many things will change, and you may never find the feeling at your peak again.

In the past few years, Qin Fei has always been an iron man, with a high attendance rate, and has not suffered any injuries. Even if he is maliciously fouled, he always gets up in the ashes.

But his body must be strained, but with the existing medical conditions, there is no way to detect it.

[Iron Waist] enhances Qin Fei's ability to stay in the air, confrontation, adjustment, etc., and is more passive in actual play; [Perpetual Motion] enhances Qin Fei's endurance, allowing him to have sufficient physical energy to contribute energy on both offensive and defensive ends; [Quick Response] improves Qin Fei's basketball skills at the conscious level, helping him to complete faster technical moves than ordinary people, and preemptively strike.

This newly acquired [Toughness] strengthened Qin Fei's ability to endure sex.

Throughout the history of the entire NBA, tolerance is also a noble quality, and top players who can enter the Hall of Fame or achieve major achievements all possess such qualities.

However, this talent does not have a strong substantive response on the court.

It can only be said that after several months of rest, Qin Fei felt that he had completely recovered to his peak state, and his physical fatigue was swept away.

Players on both sides greet each other, which is a procedural work.

Qin Fei could tell that there was a fire burning in the eyes of the expressionless Pacers.

The starter Reggie Miller shook his hand coldly.

Just as Qin Fei was about to say something, he gave him the back of the head and walked away.

The Pacers' starting players from the first to the fifth positions are Tejus Edney, Reggie Miller, Jaylen Rose, Austin Clothier and Sam Perkins.

There have also been many changes, most notably the departure of Mark Jackson and the retirement of Rick Schmitz.

The Warriors are Chauncey Billups, John Starks, Qin Fei, Clifford Robinson and Ben Wallace from the 1st position to the 5th position.

Originally at the position of the point guard at position 1, the question of who should start is still a bit controversial.

But now that the real starting list is released, everyone suddenly understands that Billups will start and Blaylock will be on the bench.

The language of the camera is mastered, and Blaylock is given a separate shot. Blaylock himself is quite happy, chatting with his teammates next to him.

Qin Fei tucked his pants, and walked to the technical stage in the chase scene.

There was chalk powder on the technical table, and he poured a little, patted it on his hands to ensure that the friction on his hands was sufficient.

On both sides, the players are in place.

Big Ben and the opponent's Crozier jump ball.

Crohill is the main player who stayed behind for the Pacers in the summer. Apart from Crohill, another important player left behind is Jaylen Rose, who renewed his contract with a maximum salary.

"beep--"

After the whistle sounded, two heroes jumped into the air.

Big Ben obviously has longer arms and better jumping ability, so he was the first to touch the basketball.

Crohill is known as 2 meters, with a striker-level figure, and he doesn't show much advantage in playing the 06th position. Compared with Daben, he is just average.

The basketball was transferred to Billups' hands.

Fans were slightly surprised by Billups' position, but they didn't feel too abrupt. In last season's playoffs, Billups stayed on the court many times at critical times, which proved that he was already an important rotation player for the team.

This has a process, every player is like this.

Billups reached out to organize. He was tall, and the Pacers' new point guard looked particularly petite in front of him.

"Snapped!"

The crotch was switched to the left hand, and the game passed the half court steadily.

For the first offense of the new season, Billups reached out to direct.

He was expressionless and indifferent. Although there was a lot of hustle and bustle on the scene, for a fourth-year veteran who had already experienced the finals, these were small scenes.

Billups' command was very good, and he called the players to cover for Qin Fei who was about to come out from the flank.

In fact, Starks and Big Ben are old teammates, only Clifford Robinson is a newcomer.

In Billups' first play, Clifford Robinson didn't get involved much, and just hid in a 45-[-] ambush on the weak side after a false screen.

Then Qin Fei came out with his pocket.

Pass the ball ahead of time and hand it over to Qin Fei.

Qin Fei raised his hands high, and the Pacers chose to cover and switch defenses.

He dribbled the ball with his left hand and took advantage of the trend to break through the middle. After two steps, he found that the Pacers' mid-range protection was not tight, and Crosher, who was chasing him, was a white and strong inside man.

The moment the two were about to make physical contact, Qin Fei turned around suddenly.

Pulling the ball horizontally with the left hand, the front of the body rotated counterclockwise, and the footsteps diverged, which happened to get stuck in Crohill's position.

Crohill never expected that Qin Fei would choose such a turn.

"So fast."

Although he had fought against Qin Fei many times, Crozier couldn't help but let out an admiration in his heart.

Qin Fei dribbled the ball too quickly and turned around like a gust of wind. When he reacted and adjusted his center of gravity, the latter had already completed receiving the ball.

Qin Fei stepped on the ground with his left leg, tensed his calf muscles, and took off brazenly.

Gliding in the air for a distance of Crohill, Dapeng posed in a tomahawk-like posture like spreading its wings, and the basketball was raised and dunked into the frame!
"boom!"

A bang!
The fans in the entire basketball hall, after a moment of stagnant breathing, howled with excitement!
"Qin Fei!"

"MVP!"

"This is superstar!"

Superstars play, even ordinary shots, will be over-interpreted.

What's more, Qin Fei's first attack turned out to be such a smooth turn and dunk. The moment it was completed, the entire arena was in a state of boiling that hadn't been seen for a long time.

They like this action so much. Compared with the domineering and aggressive attack, this slam dunk also has the extraordinary turning in front, flexible and elegant, and has a unique aesthetic effect.

"Do you count me as an assist?"

Billups is not a person who cares about his own statistics, but he also wants to know, like this, Qin Fei seems to have directly obtained an offensive opportunity, in a very coherent way, but he dribbled twice, does it count as an assist?

Qin Fei nodded and ran to give him a high five.

"Good pass."

Billups' passing is more comfortable than Blaylock's.

Qin Fei was embarrassed to say this during team training, but it was true.

Unlike the kind of assists that break through the ball, Billups is a real serial attack. The ball passed to him in advance may not be converted into a score in the first time. Maybe he only has five or six assists in a game.

Of course, the center of gravity is different.

Such traits are magnified when Billups assists a super-scorer.

It's only just getting started.

All the members of the Pacers team were high-spirited, and Qin Fei's dunk did not dampen their morale.

Long before the start of this game, they were gearing up to give the Warriors a fatal blow.

After watching the Warriors raise the championship flag and award the championship ring, which represents the pinnacle of the player's personal honor, their anger reached its peak.

In other words, it can be enlarged at any time.

So Qin Fei's dunk is useless, and others are not affected at all, and the buff has already been filled up.

On offense, the new Pacers point guard Edney is very fast, and the small point guard has the advantage of the small point guard.

When he was dribbling on the floor, it was difficult for defenders to take out his dribble, and he took his time to complete a crossover in front of Billups.

Then at the mid-range position, a sudden point was given to Jaylen Rose on the outside.

Jaylen Rose made a jumper from outside the three-point line and made it!
Rose, who hit a three-pointer, had no expression on his face, and ran back to his own half to retreat coldly.

The camera was given to Rose, and then the host naturally talked about Rose's maximum salary contract.

"In recent years, because of the salary cap, the threshold for obtaining a maximum salary contract seems to be lowering."

Of course, the host did not intend to say that Jaylen Rose was not qualified, but after saying it, it was inevitable that there was such a meaning, which made him immediately realize that he had made a slip of the tongue, and immediately corrected his explanation.

In fact, what he means is that due to the impact of salary space, the top area is expanding.

In the past, there were only a few players who could get a billion-dollar contract, and every time someone got a billion-dollar contract, there would be a lot of discussion.

After the new labor agreement came out, the league set a maximum salary.

The high salaries expected by the bosses are limited, and the concept of "maximum salary" is completed with less money, which makes it easier for them to wave their checks and ask for top players to join.

To put it bluntly, it is the concept of "from luxury to thrift". The original budget was only 50 yuan, but it cost 100 yuan to buy this player.

For Rose's discussion, the maximum salary contract must be inseparable. Of course, there are not a few young people in the league who have obtained the maximum salary contract.

Ross is just one of them.

After Rose hit a three-pointer, his expression was solemn, without the slightest complacency.

He was on the perimeter with arms outstretched, ready to go.

The Warriors slowly advanced, and Billups organized an offense on the top of the arc on the three-point line.

The Warriors played a standard pick-and-roll offense this time. Qin Fei came out to pass the ball, and then returned the ball to Billups. Billups played a pick-and-roll with Clifford Robinson on the wing.

Cliff is a new addition to the Warriors and has a strong scoring ability.

This guy can extend his range beyond the three-point line and is an early four-pointer who can shoot three-pointers.

After the two played the pick-and-roll, he did not choose to withdraw from the three-point line, but cut down and inward, which caught the Pacers by surprise. Billups had quick eyes and quick hands, and hit the ground to pass the ball to Cliff.

The latter hits the basket with the ball.

The Pacers' ability to protect the frame is average, but they have a lot of meat shields. Veteran Sam Perkins is one of them.

Perkins and Qin Fei were teammates in the Supersonics before, and the two overturned the Bulls together in 98. At this time, Perkins was also nearing retirement and found a job with the Pacers.

He works hard, defends with his arms high, and is very standard.

Uncle Cliff failed to hit the basket, and the basketball went out of the frame.

But Big Ben took off the rebound at the basket and squeezed Croshire away, majestic.

Big Ben originally wanted to attack by himself, but Crozier was also quite strong, blocking him so that he couldn't make a shot. Big Ben turned around and gave it out, and Billups regained control of the ball.

Pass it to Qin Fei on the flank.

Qin Fei took the ball and broke through smoothly, the Pacers decisively double-teamed in the mid-range area, and Qin Fei passed to Starks on the weak side.

The veteran broke through again and succeeded in a short-range throw.

"I can see it. The Warriors' opening tactic is to attack inside. The bullying Pacers are not high enough now, and the defensive ability of the players in the penalty area is not strong."

"That's right, neither Perkins nor Croshere are players who can protect the frame well. Their talents are mainly on the offensive end. This is a big disadvantage of the Pacers' lineup today."

"We can all see that the Pacers are suffocating and want to compete with the Warriors, but the Warriors seem to be well prepared. Every attack after the opening is very positive."

The host and commentators analyzed for a while, whichever team is leading on the field, they should blow that one first.

If they continue to lead later on, it means that their analysis (blowing) is correct. If the scores of the two teams behind are tied and the lagging team catches up, then analyze (criticize) the plight of the leading team and the major changes of the lagging team.

But in any case, the Warriors' current strategy is certainly no problem.

No matter how strong the morale of the Pacers is, it is an indisputable fact that there is no one inside. In terms of rebounds, they can't grab the big book, and in terms of frame protection, they can't defend against the extremely powerful Qin Fei and others.

Fortunately, Reggie Miller and Jalen Rose feel online.

After the opening, "swish" consecutive goals.

This kept the Pacers in a state of anxiety in terms of scores, and it also continued to inspire the fighting spirit of a group of Pacers players.

Qin Fei was in very good condition. After Jaylen Rose scored the eighth point in a single quarter, Qin Fei suddenly hit the ball in a row. First, he made a mid-range jumper with an emergency stop and hit the defense against the two.

Then blocked Jaylen Rose's layup on the defensive end, and in turn completed the layup in one go.

On the Pacers' bench, several new players watched Qin Fei's performance in a daze. He was omnipotent on the court.

Did the team play against such a monster last year?
The new players were frightened for a while, and they always felt that they must be given away when they go up, and there is no solution at all.

"Shh!"

With 1 minute and 13 seconds left in the first quarter, Qin Fei made another top shot and scored his 10 points. He played very softly in the first quarter and didn't even make free throws. He scored all of his goals with two-pointers and scored 10 points.

The Warriors also led the Pacers by 29 points 26 to 3.

The Pacers attack well by themselves, but they can't defend the Warriors. This is the most troublesome thing, and they appear very passive on the court.

10 points in a single quarter is not uncommon in Qin Fei's short career. The difference from the playoffs is that Qin Fei took a break after scoring 10 points. He didn't play in the last minute of the first quarter.

Carlisle had already made it clear that Qin Fei would not be allowed to play for 45 minutes like in the playoffs.

But Qin Fei felt that he was OK.

He walked off the field shaking his head, wanting to tell the coach:
Don't trade me down, I'm tough!
