NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 326 Sending the sun a little warmth makes Goose City the happiest?
The construction of the Trail Blazers this summer is quite successful. The joining of Garnett and Mo Williams made all media experts believe that the Trail Blazers in the new season will most likely be stronger than last season.

However, no matter how optimistic the outside world is, they never thought that this time the Blazers would be so strong that they won 13 consecutive victories at the start of the game...

After suffering a two-game losing streak not long ago, the other teams were "joyed" not long ago. The Trail Blazers found their place in the Rose Garden Arena and tortured the Warriors severely.

前面两天比赛场均能够狂砍37分的勇士当家斯蒂芬库里来到波特兰玫瑰花园球馆后魔力不在。和开拓者的比赛，库里出战41分钟，全场23投仅仅5中，得到12分7助攻……

Ever since, it was the turn of Portland's media to start "joying"...

At this moment, Neil Orsi said: "Ahem, step back, I'm going to play 13!"

Just kidding, the outside world is highly acclaimed. This year's offseason reinforcement work of the Trail Blazers is very good, but who is the most tired during the offseason?

Needless to say?
He must be the general manager of the Trail Blazers who is the most tired!

"Nel Orsi is very likely to become the best general manager of the season! "

"The management of the Nets should learn more from the Blazers, the ball is not like this!" "

"Behind the evolution of the pioneers, it is inseparable from a hot man!" "

The huge sensation brought by the 13-game winning streak to the outside world has finally been brewed. The players and coaching staff have been highly praised, but the biggest praise has to be given to the Blazers general manager Neil Orsi.

Having said that, you can know your own family affairs.Others don't know the inside story, but Neil Orsi doesn't know?
The team's several important rotations this season, except for the signing of Mo Williams is his own credit, the rest of Kevin Garnett was brought by Wang Zelin himself, and Beverly, who has performed outstandingly recently, was actually picked by Terry Stotts.

So, when he knew that the outside world gave him extremely high praise, he was completely confused at first, but then...

Cough, he showed some good intentions, how could he refuse, the big deal is that in an interview with the media, he vaguely pointed out the inside story of Garnett's joining Portland.

Later, the media learned through various channels that Garnett, the strong supporter, joined the Trail Blazers after Wang Zelin personally persuaded him!

本赛季加内特替补出场22分钟，稳定输出11分5篮板1.2助攻1盖帽，眼瞅着都要奔赛季最佳第6人一去不复返了……

Maybe Garnett never thought about it: After coming to Portland, he is very likely to open up a path that he has never imagined in his career.

The best sixth man, he really hasn't won it yet!
Under such circumstances, the media immediately switched their firepower and praised Wang Zelin again.

Such a dramatic scene has attracted countless people who eat melons to talk about it.

and so……

"Mr. Prokhorov, Neil Orsi's contract will expire in one year. At that time, you can consider signing him to the Nets."

These words were said by Barkley, which is in line with his usual big-mouthed personality. Although he is full of arrogance, it is enough to see the outside world's views on this matter.

The so-called Mr. Prokhorov is the Russian boss of the Nets, whose full name is Mikhail Prokhorov.

"Hey, Charles, I think you made a mistake. Wang Lai, the Nets boss who retired from basketball, should be the general manager, haha!"

Barkley had spoken, and Kenny Smith, who was a good partner, could only fall behind, tweeting Aite.

The record of the Nets this year is indeed bad enough, spending the league's first salary, but the result may not even make it to the playoffs.

At this time, not only the general manager of the team, Billy King, but also the team's head coach, Jason Kidd, who just took office today, can't sit still. The two still want to keep their jobs.

Amidst the noises and even the eccentric discourses of media experts, the big boss of the Nets, Prokhorov, couldn't sit still, and had a fierce criticism in the office of the general manager of the Nets.

It is a recognized fact that Russian local tyrants are super rich, but this does not mean that people like to be taken advantage of.

Even if the Nets have one less Kevin Garnett than in the original history, they still have 4 players with an annual salary of tens of millions of dollars.

其中单打乔年薪最高为2146万米元、德小胖紧随其后，年薪为1868万、保罗皮尔斯的薪金是1533万、大洛佩慈也有1469万。“四巨头”加起来一共6996万米元，都快赶上开拓者队全队薪资总和了。

Count Terry of 522 million, Taylor Tovic of 322 million, Sean Brooks of 121 million, and the No. 22 rookie just selected by the Nets...

Still forget it, anyway, the serious situation of the Nets will be difficult to alleviate in the next few years. They use actions to explain what it means to sacrifice the future for the present.

During the offseason, Nets owner Prokhorov once stated: Money is not a problem, as long as he can get a championship, he is willing to pay the luxury tax.

After the start of the new season, the outside world has paid a lot of attention to this Nets: Is their super luxurious lineup a replica of the Miracle of the Heat, or is it the old way of the Lakers F4 on the field?
Now it seems that the proper development route is the latter.

No one's money came from the wind, it was all his hard-earned money!
In the face of Prokhorov's doubts and dissatisfaction, Billy King and Jason Kidd repeatedly stated that the Nets will definitely enter the playoffs anyway, and finally let the irascible boss calm down a little.

Don't be afraid.

Don't forget, his own boss may be the tallest team owner in NBA history, none of them, with a full height of 2 meters.

Coupled with the fact that he was born in a fighting nation, in case of temper tantrums, Billy King and Jason Kidd must not be given physical relief.Besides, he is rich, so what kind of lawyer can't be hired...

I really can't afford it!

Who can blame?
We can only blame the pioneers and the oriental man!
Wang Zelin was completely unaware of the tragic experience of the duo of the Nets. Of course, even if he knew, it still didn't matter.

You won't allow others to praise the people you have won with your ability?

If you are not convinced, shake it yourself!
Therefore, Wang Zelin was very happy to see the media's praise for him in the past few days.

No one doesn't like to be praised unless they have brains...

Amidst the sound of praise, the Trail Blazers started their journey in December.

On December 12, Wang Zelin will be a guest in Phoenix with the team and will challenge the Suns away.

In fact, it is polite to say that it is a challenge.

When the bully Stoudemire and the son of the wind Nash left Phoenix one after another, the Phoenix Suns had already been in a state of "a down and out phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken".

Moreover, this situation will continue for a long time. Starting from 2010, the sun will be a rooster for 11 years...

en, seems a bit indecent, but this is the cruelest fact.

Be patient, St. Paul will save them in the future!
But then again, after coming to this time and space, the development process of the NBA is very different from the original space. It is not impossible for Sao Paulo to touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals in advance.

After entering the hotel with the team and opening the private room, Wang Zelin took a look at the Suns' record at the pre-match meeting...

What to say?

It can only be said that as a fan of the Suns, you must prepare a few heart-saving pills in advance.

Watching them play is like riding a roller coaster, it's so exciting!It's too annoying!
After playing poorly for three years, I don't know if the Suns have obtained the true biography of the Timberwolves, learned the three-axe kung fu, and won two consecutive victories at the beginning of the game!
Although they lost Game 3, the Suns still won and lost until early November, with a record of 11 wins and 5 losses.

For a time, countless old Sun fans burst into tears.

Could it be that the team is about to rise this year?
Could it be that the gate of the playoffs will return to the land of Phoenix?
Could it be that……

It turns out they were overthinking it.

In mid-to-late November, the Suns suddenly made a wave of kneeling four times in a row, sending a lot of warmth to the Nets, Nuggets and other teams one after another, explaining what it means to sacrifice oneself for others.The result was naturally that they fell from the top four in the West to the tenth in the West, and then they won a wave of two consecutive victories. It was simply...

At present, the Suns have played 17 games, one more back-to-back than the Trail Blazers, with 9 wins and 8 losses, ranking ninth in the Western Conference, only one step away from the top eight playoff spots.

Generally speaking, the Suns are playing well at present, that is, the West is a bit too brutal, and the winning percentage cannot exceed 5. It is impossible to squeeze into the top eight.If you switch to the East, the Suns' current record of 9 wins and 8 losses can already make them rank sixth in the East.

To evaluate this Suns team is: there is a bit of ability to abuse food, but as long as they encounter a team with a little hard goods in their hands, they are unable to fight back and can only be beaten passively.

None of the 9 victories has a high gold content, and most of the winning opponents are the Hornets, Magic, Kings, and Bobcats.

What's more, tonight they are facing the Botuan Trailblazers who are full of hard stubble.

As a result, local fans didn't pay much attention to the game, and the attendance rate was so poor.Even the pre-match warm-up session of the media seemed to be perfunctory, to deal with work, after a few simple announcements, there was no further news.

However, don't forget that this is the NBA after all!

If you want to judge the most successful and impressive slogan in the NBA so far, it is undoubtedly the one released in 2007, "Where amazing happenns!"

Meaning: The place where miracles are born!
At least, domestic fans are not familiar with this classic catchphrase, after all, it is a remnant of the past...

On December 2013, 12, the Phoenix Suns, who had always been considered by the outside world to be able to abuse food, played the most valuable game since the new season, and it is very likely to become one of the classic battles of the Suns during the regular season since the second decade of the new century.

The Portland Trail Blazers, No. [-] in the West, were killed by the Phoenix Suns, No. [-] in the West.

The shocking upset on the next gram!
In this game, the Suns set off a counterattack wave in the third quarter when they fell behind in the first half at home.

After three quarters, the Suns took the lead and kept it until the final buzzer.

Dragic, the "little Nash" in the media, played the style of "real Nash" tonight, scoring a game-high 31 points and sending out 13 assists, becoming the biggest contributor to the Suns' victory.

At the same time, it also made the Trail Blazers' plan to return to the winning streak die.

Five players from both sides scored in double figures tonight, but the Suns are undoubtedly the better side.Dragic became the only player who scored more than 5 points in the game, in addition to Channing Frye who scored 30 points.

On the Blazers side, only Wang Zelin and Aldridge scored 20 points. The former had 24 points and 12 rebounds, and the latter had 20 points and 10 rebounds.

However, there are two other people who performed quite well tonight, and they have attracted the attention of the outside world and heated discussions among fans, and that is the Morris brothers of the Suns.

As a rare combination of brothers in the league who entered the NBA together, the Morris brothers received good attention as soon as they entered the league.

Especially when Marcus Morris joined the Suns last season and gathered in Phoenix with his twin brother Markieff Morris to perform the NBA version of "Brothers in Battle", the two became more and more famous and became widely known to fans.

Today, Marcus Morris, who has always been inferior to his brother in statistics, did not hold back today, scoring 15 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal.

而作为哥哥的马基夫莫里斯也很争气，在出场时间仅比弟弟多出1分钟的情况下，25分钟之内13投7中得到了19分5篮板4助攻1抢断的数据。

Once again, he proved with his strength that the reason why he is an elder brother is not only because he was born 5 minutes earlier than his younger brother Marcus.

After the game, the Morris brothers combined to score 34 points and Dragic scored 31 points and 13 assists in a large double-double to lead the Suns to overthrow the Portland Trail Blazers, which together became the biggest news in the NBA that day.

The Trail Blazers overturned, the happiest team is the Spurs, Thunder and other teams in the back.

Maybe the Spurs didn't think too much about it and just watched the fun secretly, but the Thunder is different.

Last season, Du Xiaoshuai led the Thunder to be swept out by the Blazers 4:0. The scene was extremely embarrassing, and it also made all Thunder fans completely hate the Blazers.

Originally, Thunder fans were still fantasizing: their other thigh, Westbrook, will come back in the new season, so they have to work hard no matter what, and play as a regular season champion.

It didn't work out, Cheng Yaojin came out halfway.

At this time, the Portland Trail Blazers, which they hate the most, occupy the No. [-] ranking in the Western Conference, which makes it impossible for Thunder fans to hold their breath.

After losing to the Warriors on November 11, the Blazers' 26-game winning streak was broken, and it was the Thunder fans who immediately jumped out to cheer and taunt.

It's just that because the Warriors have shown good strength this year and are very likely to occupy a spot in the Western Conference playoffs, their ridicule is not so strong.

After losing to the Pacers in the next game, the Thunder fans could still maintain their sanity and did not choose to be brainless.

Because the Pacers are very likely to win the regular season championship this year, let alone the Blazers, even their own players may not be able to beat the opponent.

Sure enough, the first element of doing great things is—forbearance.

Until the day of December 12, the news that the Blazers were upset by the Suns spread throughout the league. Thunder fans couldn't bear it anymore, and they boarded the big and small accounts one after another, starting from the online world.

That's why there was a strange scene from the outside world: the Suns fans were surprised to find that their team won the ball, but Goose City celebrated the most.

Could it be spinach?
That's not right, Baldhead Hua hasn't started selling spinach cheap yet!
Or did you encounter the three great pleasures in life: getting promoted, getting rich, S... ahem, the last one doesn't count.
