Chapter 190: Easy Schedule

A team like the Warriors, who was almost a league belly last season, will also take care of the schedule relatively speaking, generally speaking, the two ends are loose and the middle is tight. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

For example, the Warriors will face three home games directly at the beginning of the new season.

After a day of rest, the Warriors faced the visiting Jazz.

In the summer, Jazz and the Knights put on a bloody stage play.

The protagonist of the script is Carlos Boozer, the bald hunk he saw when Yang Di was with the Cavaliers last season, with fierce rebounding and accurate shooting in the frontcourt.

At the beginning, the Cavaliers and Boozer negotiated a contract extension, and Boozer had a good chat, verbally agreeing to sign, and they had talked to the point where they were only close to signing. But in the blink of an eye, the Jazz offered a higher price, and Boozer immediately agreed to the Jazz's contract, and the Cavaliers couldn't match the contract and let him go.

$68 million for 6 years, which is basically the price of a first-class star.

So Boozer has had a bad impact, and many teams despise it.

At this time, the Jazz are actually not bad, Kirilenko has not suffered injuries, Boozer is very adaptable to Sloan's system, and the only thing missing is a team's engine. The team's current point guard is an undrafted player who entered the league last year, Keith McRyod of Ohio.

Before the game even started, the Auckland stadium was already flooded with fans wearing white No.8 shirts, more than double the number of fans compared to the previous game.

"The center for the Jazz is Jalen Collins."

"It's Jason Collins' twin brother, it seems to be a second-round show." Fisher still has a lot of news, and he knows every player in the NBA very well.

"The most important thing is that he was a student at Stanford University."

Yang Di was taken aback, didn't that mean?

"That's right, a former disciple of our head coach." Fisher nodded, "So, the manager knows him best. ”

As soon as the words fell, Montgomery walked up to Yang Di and lectured on the matter.

"Young, tonight you play against Jalen Collins, he is a little taller and heavier than you, but his strength is not good, and the confrontation is average. You played well the day before yesterday and continued to do it tonight, fighting for rebounds in the frontcourt, grabbing offensive opportunities, defending the position, and helping your teammates to help block. ”

"Yes, I know." Yang Di nodded.

After the coach left, he tied thick black knee pads to both legs, which had support strips on the sides, which wrapped his legs tightly and made it easier for him to exert force. He didn't want to wear it, but everyone from the head coach to the team doctor asked him to wear it, so he had no choice but to wear it, and he ended up playing a game and it felt very good.

After the warm-up training of both sides, the starters were introduced.

The Jazz center is really Jalen Collins, power forward Carlos Boozer, small forward Andrei Kirilenko, scoring guard Croatian Gordon Kirisek, and point guard Keith McRiod.

The Warriors are the same starters as yesterday, with Jandy, Troy Murphy, Mike Dunleavy, Jason Richardson, and Derrick Fisher.

Yang Di easily beat Collins, and sure enough, as Montgomery said, Collins' athleticism is average.

The Warriors' positional battle is not too complicated tactics, today did not encounter the Trail Blazers' strange lineup, Boozer and Collins' rim protection ability is average, Richardson opened his hand to ask for the ball, ready to bully the unknown Croatian in front of him.

Richardson easily broke through and opened his hand to kill, but at this moment, a gibbon-like guy rushed out diagonally.

"Smack!"

The exposed basketball was slapped off the court, and Richardson squinted at it, leaving Kirilenko with a huge 47 back.

"Damn the Russians." Richardson cursed secretly, unhappy in his heart.

Yang Di struggled to get to the inside and Colinska, with stronger strength, to get to a deep position, and Fisher saw it and hung it directly.

"Bang!"

Yang Di pouted and chiseled in, and the angry Dantian Collins was hit by Yang Di, and then Yang Di turned over and jumped, grabbed the ball with both hands and slammed the dunk, and his legs naturally opened.

Hanging the basket, Yang Di roared angrily, and cheers coming towards him naturally sounded around him.

Boozer's eyes widened, wasn't this guy a substitute last year, why did he become so fierce now? Although Collins is not heavy in the center, he is also about 115 kilograms, so he was pushed away by Yang Di? He knows that his weight is about the same as that of Corinth, and he is slightly stronger in terms of strength, so if he is on his own, he will definitely be knocked away by Yang Di?

Boozer shook his head, it was important to avoid this from happening.

The Jazz and the Warriors are not back-to-back games, and since the season has just begun, everyone is full of energy, playing particularly hot on the court, and the shooting percentage is also very high.

The Jazz still follow Sloan's tactical philosophy and play the pick-and-roll offense well, especially point guard Kees, who also tries to pass some second-to-second passes that hit the ground. In addition to the fact that the Jazz have no charm in defense, they really feel like they are in trouble for a while.

Seeing that Richardson was in good shape today, Sloan waved his hand and replaced the shooting guard with a guard from the Virgin Islands - Raga Bell.

At this time, Richardson was very uncomfortable, and the heads-up efficiency was very low, so he could only turn to find a block.

However, his blocking and dismantling skills are not strong, and the error rate of the ball given by the Shun is particularly high, and after being broken by the Jazz twice, it has become a mode of burying his head in solitude.

Fisher struggled hard, trailing the Jazz by nine points at 19-28 in the first quarter.

In the final analysis, the Warriors lack a player who can attack with the ball, what are the main characteristics of the offense with the ball, blocking and dismantling with the ball, breaking through the ball with the ball, making a stop-and-go jump shot with the ball, and attacking the basket with the ball. Of these four points, Richardson can only attack the basket with the ball.

The reason why I added the word "yes" is because if he plays against a layup, the shooting percentage is actually not high.

So Yang Di stood under the basket and picked up the leaks, and grabbed several rebounds silently.

He finally understood how Eric Dampier got so many rebounds last season, and according to this momentum, he feels that he can average more than 15 rebounds per game this season, which is definitely better than the guy who signed a big contract just declared in front of the media that "if he is the second center in the West, no one dares to call himself the first center in the West".

Yang Di found out that the Warriors couldn't beat the Jazz.

It's not the same as last season when he was with the Heat, when he came off the bench and always had the feeling that he could beat the bench of the other 29 teams around the league.

In the end, the Jazz defeated the Warriors by 14 points 102-88, and Yang Di had 12 points, 16 rebounds and 4 blocks, and his performance was still the best in the Warriors.
