Chapter 184: The Opening Day of the Regular Season

After the training camp, the days returned to calm, and after Yang Di participated in two more joint practice, the Warriors team began the preseason game, which was already in mid-October. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The eyes of the media will not always be on the Warriors, the transformation and upgrading of the Rockets, the makeover of the Heat, and the comeback Spurs are all worth paying attention to than the Warriors. In other words, the entire Warriors, and Richardson, is still just a grassroots team that has never been selected for the All-Star Game or the All-Season Team.

What's so good about the dumpling team? Ding Potian is also the penultimate in the west.

And then everyone is chasing the dreams and footsteps of the superstar, crying and shouting and spinning around them every day, even if it's a fart, that's a piece of news, isn't it?

We report what the fans like to watch.

Montgomery already has the prototype of the Warriors lineup for the new season in his heart, looking at the soldiers in his hands, in fact, there is really no strong point, and the strongest Richardson defense is a mess.

"It's good that there are Yang Di and Alanado." These two interior defenders gave him a little confidence, and he began to implement some basic tactical ideas and ideas of the team, and evolved some conventional tactics.

No one knows what he can bring to the team from Stanford, but there are a lot of theoretical lessons to learn and practice.

And then in the process of doing so, the Warriors suffered a three-game losing streak in the preseason.

After finally winning a scrappy Timberwolves, there was another wave of three consecutive defeats, and there was no team that played worse than the Warriors in the preseason.

Yang Di didn't play once, such explosiveness and training camp state, saying that he was injured, Montgomery was the first to tear his mouth, but the general manager didn't believe it.

"It's better to believe what you have, not to believe what you don't have, don't overdo it, and it's better to adjust the state of everything." Chris Mullin is really afraid of another injury to Youngdy, and a torn ligament is no joke - ever since listening to Montgomery's report on training camp, he has felt that this particular kid can achieve great things.

Before the start of the new season, Yang Di finished training with Tim Hardaway, and his ball control ability has increased significantly, and his ball protection ability has also been improved. Then, as he envisioned, he went to the store for the first time to buy a training card, and Nash's three hand feel workouts also raised his mid-to-long-range shooting rating.

In the shooting score, the growth rate of inside shooting has slowed down, 97 is not far from the S- mark, close shooting has increased to 87, mid-range shooting 88, three-point shooting 50, close and mid-range shooting ratings are very similar, Yang Di feels that as long as he is not a long-range shot, he should have a certain degree of certainty now.

The only thing that needs to be improved is the way of shooting, which is still mainly for catch-and-shoot jumpers, and the shooting speed is not fast, nor is it a difficult shot such as a straight-arm jumper, which is easy to be interfered with, and the anti-interference shooting score is still only 66, indicating that his road to being a marksman is still very long.

"88 dribbles, 82 non-handed, 97 ball protectors." Yang Di felt it himself, no wonder the desire to dribble after taking the ball has become stronger and stronger recently, and it is still the fault of self-confidence.

Such a good weapon can be enjoyed by opponents during the regular season.

......

It seems that the Pistons beat the Lakers in an upset to win the championship as if it was last night, and in the blink of an eye, the 04-05 season is about to start again.

Despite the Lakers' big team in the Finals, boring games, lots of defense, and poor shooting failed to save the ratings, which were only slightly higher than last year's Nets vs. Spurs.

So before the start of the 04-05 season, the league issued a new rule - NOhandcheck, that is, the elimination of hand contact defense. It is stipulated that the player must not make any hand touches or interfere with the breakaway in front of the penalty area, such as not opening his arms to block the movement of the defender.

Obviously, the league is to encourage outside players to attack, to encourage a bunch of top wing players to go inside, to make kills, to dunk, to make the game more exciting, more in line with the taste of the audience.

The introduction of this policy has been criticized by many head coaches, but it has really promoted the development of modern basketball.

This year's regular season starts on November 2, and October 31, before the regular season begins, is Halloween, a traditional Western holiday.

After a month, Yang Di gradually got acquainted with his teammates, and the whole Warriors agreed to take a role-play PK group photo, and they went to the arena to do activities together that night.

Nancy dressed as a magician, wearing a tall bowled hat on her head, making her already tall figure stand out even more.

Yang Di pulled Nancy to the arena to participate in the event together.

He himself is also a magician's dress, and he also has a high hat, which matches Nancy's pure white magician costume with Yang Di's orange and yellow pure color, two people one big and one small stand together, and from time to time take out candy from their hands, hats, and pockets, attracting a group of children who come over with hulala.

The entire stadium is full of games specially set up by the Warriors, such as Yang Di saw Richardson running to the door of the arena to pretend to be a wax figure, constantly pranking passers-by, causing fans to laugh. There is also Foyer, who wears the blue trapeze jacket of the warrior mascot named "Thunder", who pretends to be fixed at first, and whenever someone passes, he suddenly jumps out, scaring many people into turning around and running.

Fisher, on the other hand, was a professional videographer, holding a small machine's camera to record everyone.

On the court of the stadium, many children played basketball games, and the Warriors just made a group photo of 15 people waiting for their height, which attracted a lot of fans to take pictures.

Halloween is a favorite activity of Yang Di, Yang Di took Nancy to walk around the entire arena, and then when the event was over, the two were reluctant to leave the stadium.

......

On November 2, the NBA's regular season officially began in a hustle and bustle.

NBA officials arranged a total of three games on this day, the first game was the Rockets, away to challenge the defending champion Pistons, the Rockets combined into the inside and outside star partner of Mega Yao Ming, before the season began, it was favored by experts, and there were even many who advocated that this is another round of OK-level rise, and the Rockets are just around the corner.

Yao Ming is also full of confidence, and said on the phone with Yang Di a few days ago that he must first defeat the Pistons to prove himself, and his goal this season is to win the championship.

Yang Di was noncommittal and waited to see how the rocket would perform.

As a result, the Rockets were really powerful, and at the end of the third quarter, they fought with the Pistons to a 59-tie. But Yao Ming's personal score is very embarrassing, and he has not yet scored a double under Big Ben's defense.

In the last quarter, Yao Ming's physical disadvantage appeared, and the Pistons took turns to impact the inside of the rocket, although they took four caps, they scored 28 points in this quarter, you know, this is all the points obtained from positional battles!

The tough Pistons committed 9 fouls in this quarter, except for Yao Ming, they fouled other players, and the Rockets scored 11 points on 11-of-15 free throws in this quarter, but the total score was still only 20 points, basically maintaining the score in the first three quarters, and finally lost the game 79-87.

Yang Di watched the whole game and found that the Rockets' overall defense was okay, but they didn't do well partially, such as the power forward position, Rasheed Wallace scored 11 points in the final quarter, and there was no one on the Rockets' fourth position to limit him.

The second game was a game between the Kings and the Mavericks, with Youngdy's former friend Devin Harris, who was the fifth pick this year as Nash's backup, starting the game with the Mavericks.

The two teams played the opposite game against the Rockets and Pistons, playing offensive basketball and finally winning the game 107-98.

The Lakers' home game against the Nuggets was the third game of the opening day.

The whole world wants to see if the Lakers without O'Neal can carry Kobe Bryant alone, and a team like the Nuggets that was on the fringes of last season's playoffs is a good test of its quality.

As a result, Kobe Bryant had a mediocre hand, mainly passing the ball to connect the team, and he only took 14 shots in the whole game, and the Lakers won the visiting Nuggets 89-78.
