Chapter 113: Feel Recovery

In this game, although the strength of the two sides is very different, it is still very interesting!

The biggest attraction is the showdown between Brandon Roy and Li Tuanjie, the two most dazzling rookies of this year!

……

Judging from the fact that Brandon can directly serve as the team's starting quarterback as a rookie, the Trail Blazers value Roy very much, and they must have regarded Roy as the cornerstone of the team!

In this case, Roy's tactical position in the team is naturally very high!

In the second offensive round of the Trail Blazers, after the basketball passed to Brandon Roy's hands, he faced Devin Harris of the Mavericks, and he was not afraid at all, relying on his strong breakthrough ability, and directly scored a basket pull-down goal!

Overall, Brandon Roy's strength is extremely comprehensive, even stronger than Kobe Bryant during his rookie season, his breakthrough and projection ability are top-notch, his defensive enthusiasm is good, his body is extremely strong, and his heads-up ability is extremely good!

Li Tuanjie watched with envy Roy hit the basket and scored a pull-down goal, this kind of difficult goal is a little too difficult for Li Tuanjie's physical fitness, even if Li Tuanjie gets a chance to shoot under the basket, the most commonly used offensive method is the most common throw.

As the game continued, Lee Tuanjie and Nowitzki took turns bombing the Trail Blazers' basket with pick-and-roll, and once one of the two guns shot a shot, the other rushed inside to protect the offensive rebound!

Obviously, the gap between the strength of the Trail Blazers and the Mavericks is really not a star and a half, and the Trail Blazers, who were the last in the West last season, have no power to fight back in front of the Mavericks, who are the first in the West!

If it weren't for Brandon Roy's several amazing and extremely difficult goals, the Mavericks would have been able to lead the Trail Blazers by more than 15 points in the first quarter alone!

In the first quarter of the game, Lee Tuanjie played for 9 minutes, and in the last three minutes, Johnson did not let Lee Tuanjie appear......

At present, allowing Li Tuanjie to get more playing time and play outstanding statistics is indeed a top priority before the Mavericks trade Li Tuanjie, but there is a premise, that is, Li Tuanjie can stay healthy......

In case Li Tuanjie suddenly has any major injuries before the trade, then I'm afraid any team will have to weigh it, and the Mavericks will definitely not be able to sell Li Tuanjie at a good price!

In this case, Coach Johnson also tried to let Li Tuanjie have a good rest while ensuring that Li Tuanjie had enough playing time.

In the first quarter of the game, 9 minutes into the game, Li Tuanjie got 7 shots, which is already a lot, you must know that Nowitzki's shots are not so many, he only made six shots!

In this game, Li Tuanjie's shooting percentage was not good, and only two of them were scored in 7 shots, but fortunately, the two goals scored were three points, allowing Li Tuanjie to score six points!

7 shots in exchange for six points, in fact, this scoring efficiency is quite embarrassing!

But Li Tuanjie didn't take it to heart, it was normal for rookie players to have a low shooting rate, and he believed that as long as he regained his touch, the shooting rate would definitely return to the normal line.

In the second quarter of the game, three minutes after the opening game, Li Tuanjie got the opportunity to play, according to the head coach Johnson's thinking, presumably the rest of the second quarter, Li Tuanjie can stay on the court.

"I didn't perform well in the first quarter, but I have to work hard in the second quarter, or I'm really sorry for so much playing time!" Li Tuanjie thought silently in his heart.

Seeing Li Tuanjie play again, many fans who like Li Tuanjie also breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, they thought that because of Li Tuanjie's willful shot, it would cause head coach Johnson to reduce Li Tuanjie's playing time in the future, so that Li Tuanjie, who was finally mixed up as the starter, would take a back seat again......

"Unity, could the reason for the poor performance in the first quarter be caused by a change in shooting stance?" Nowitzki asked with concern.

Although Li Tuanjie is about to be traded, and then he will not belong to their Mavericks players, Nowitzki is still very concerned about Li Tuanjie, and he feels that Li Tuanjie is being traded, in fact, he also has a responsibility......

In essence, the current Li Tuanjie is almost equivalent to a bankrupt version of Nowitzki, even if it is a bankrupt version, how can it be a bankrupt version of a historical-level power forward, such a player is probably not willing to be missed by any team except the Mavericks......

The best example is the Spurs, if the Spurs can have the current Li Tuanjie, and then let Duncan take the center position, and Li Tuanjie to play the power forward, then Popovich is estimated to wake up with a smile in his dreams, such a lineup is simply the most perfect lineup!

GDP troika plus front-line defensive guard Uncle Bao, plus an anti-aircraft artillery Li Tuanjie, such a lineup has no shortcomings at all, what do you want!

It's a pity that the Mavericks can't trade Li Tuanjie to the Spurs at all, unless the Spurs can be stupid enough to trade Deng Dudu......

……

"Let's take a look at the performance of Li Tuanjie in the second quarter of the game, although Li Tuanjie scored a lot in the first quarter, but the shooting rate was really a bit of a pitfall, could it be that the shooting rate dropped due to the first use of Marion's shooting posture?!" Barkley and Kenny Smith began to make small talk when they saw that Lee was only 2-of-7 shooting in the first quarter.

"Let's wait and see, I don't know what Li Tuanjie is doing, why he changed his shooting posture so suddenly, you must know that this is a taboo for players!"

……

After Li Tuanjie appeared on the stage, he once again started a double-anti-aircraft artillery blocking and dismantling tactic with his teammates!

Compared to Lee's low-percentage shooting performance, Brandon Roy's performance is perfect, he has not been off the court since the opening, and has been on the court for 15 minutes, 6-of-10, and 3-of-4 free throws, and has scored 15 points!

Obviously, in this showdown of rookies in the same class, Li Tuanjie is currently at a complete disadvantage!

It's just that in the second quarter of the game, after Li Tuanjie debuted, his hand felt a little recovered, and after missing a shot in the opening game, he hit two shots one after another, one hit a three-pointer, and scored five points, directly raising his score to double digits, reaching 11 points.

It seems that Li Tuanjie's shooting rate is not high, but Li Tuanjie knows very well in his heart that the abnormal shooting rate in this game is mainly reflected in the two-point shot, as for the three-pointer, the shooting rate is much higher than his previous shooting rate!

Now, in this game, Li Tuanjie has shot 6 three-pointers, hitting three of them, and the shooting rate is as high as 50%, which is already very amazing!

As for the mid-shot shooting percentage, it was a bit of a cheat, only 1 of 4 shots were hit!
