This Forward is Not Serious

After coming out of the medical center, Oden's face was obviously different from when he first entered.

That kind of feeling is like an uncle in vicissitudes of life, suddenly turning into a young man full of longing for the future.

"I have to shave my beard!"

And this can be completely felt from his words after he came out.

When it comes to beards, many basketball players wear beards to make themselves look more powerful.

The most famous are Paul Gasol and Steve Adams.

Before they got a beard, they were both butterscotch nipples, and instantly became mature uncles after they grew their beards.

Oden had already grown a beard when he was in college.

Now that I'm going to shave, it kind of means "cutting my ambitions".

When he saw Oden, who had shaved his beard, Lin Ying felt that the other party was ten years younger in an instant.

Well, from 50 years old to 40 years old.

After the training session began, Oden did not practice with the team, but received Nelson's adaptability training alone on the sidelines.

Although the Suns are not doing well these days, the coaching staff is as patient as ever in dealing with the players.

While Oden was training, the coaching staff was also discussing the use of Oden.

In fact, they used Frye's proposal to change Oden before, but the Blazers had no interest at all.

It's not that Frye is a veteran of the Trail Blazers. It is not uncommon for Frye to enter the NBA second and third quarters.

The main reason is that Frye has taken a big contract and his performance has improved a lot compared to last season.

However, Frye's spatial attributes cannot be replaced by others, so Frye will still be the starter most of the time.

And there is also a small Lopez in the position of the backup center, and his performance this season is also very good.

Although from the management's point of view, the transaction to Oden is a reinforcement, but the competition that Oden faces is also visible.

Therefore, the coaching staff decided not to let O go on the field after discussion, and waited until his body reached his best condition before going on.

This is also a kind of responsibility to Oden, because if Lopez can't compete, Oden will be treated as a **** contract with a high probability.

Marley went to talk to Oden.

…

After the training, Lin Ying saw Oden's face return to the state he had when he came.

Even though I shaved, I seem to be 5 years old again.

This age fluctuates too much!

After chatting with him a few words, I realized that Marley told him about the things that the coaching staff is not going to let him on for the time being.

"Let's go, I'll take you to try Chinese food."

Lin Ying suggested.

Oden froze for a moment, and finally nodded.

What Lin Ying didn't expect was that Oden was also audacious.

When Lin Ying asked him to order by himself, he dared to try dishes like pig heart and pig ear.

After ordering the food, Lin Ying chatted with Oden about the latter in Portland.

Judging from Oden's mood swings, Lin Ying can feel that his psychology has not reached the state that an NBA player should have.

Even from a certain point of view, it is not as good as the Ncaa period.

Oden originally had a personal relationship with Lin Ying, and he had no reservations about what Lin Ying did to help him integrate into the Suns.

During this process, Lin Ying learned that Oden had a long history of alcoholism when he was in the Trail Blazers.

That's right, alcoholism.

When people are unhappy, alcohol is undoubtedly a great tool for numbing nerves.

The so-called "one drunk to solve a thousand sorrows"!

Back then, the media trumpeted that Oden was a combination of Chamberlain and Russell, and Durant was the number one pick in the draft.

As a result, Durant is now in the top ten of the league, and even if he meets Tang Tian, ​​he still barely gains a foothold in the NBA.

Even Lin Ying in the same class has become fmvp.

This contrast gap is only on the one hand, and on the other hand, his injuries are repeated repeatedly.

In a cruel sentence: even if he is a parallel importer, he has no chance to prove that he is.

So he shouldn't drink too much, but in a sense he can't.

It is also self-paralysis, drinking is better than taking drugs.

The NBA is by no means a minority.

"I can probably guess what the coaching staff thinks."

Lin Ying said, it is difficult for him to change Oden's thoughts. After all, "Don't persuade others to be kind to others without suffering." He is more to help Oden clear his current psychology so that he can treat his current situation positively.

In addition to personal relationships, he did it more on the team level.

After all, it is difficult for the Suns to defend their title, and Oden is a big weight to increase this possibility.

"You know about the Thunder getting Perkins in a trade, right?"

Under Oden's curious gaze, Lin Ying moved forward step by step.

"To beat New York, we must have someone who can guard the penalty area and protect the basket. You are the answer the coaching staff wants."

Lin Ying first gave Oden confidence.

And this should indeed be the thinking of the Suns.

This is the same as his example.

In fact, if you can switch to the Perkins Suns, you won't want Oden.

But I still want Dili Ruoba!

Wanting and being able to get it are two different things.

Oden is already the best candidate the Suns can get.

And Lin Ying said that there is nothing wrong, after all, the Suns also paid a lot to get Oden.

"Before this point, you should also be able to feel at the medical center that the team values ​​you very much, so you can interpret that as caution."

The "that" Lin Ying said naturally refers to the reason for not allowing O to board for the time being.

"I see."

After listening, Oden nodded in agreement.

The authorities were fascinated by the bystanders, and they awakened the dreamer with a single word.

Oden is very sensitive to these things because of his experience, and it is really easy to block it again when no one can guide him.

Speaking of this, Lin Ying did not continue to say, but talked about the relaxed topic of Chinese food.

In fact, it is no longer realistic for Oden to become the emperor that fans are looking forward to. After four years of rookie season, the players have basically been finalized.

Most of them are late bloomers, more because they are not met.

Oden is not, except for injuries, his foul problems, NBA-level technical roughness, these are not easy to solve.

But these are not what Lin Ying needs to worry about.

Since the Suns are willing to replace him and have shown patience in all aspects, they must also have plans for those.

As long as Oden can correct his mentality and grow into a qualified starting blue-collar, then the Suns' deal will not be lost, and the team's hopes of defending this year will also be much greater.

then…

A week later.

The Suns host the New Orleans Hornets.

Oden, entered the team's 12-man activation roster.

When warming up before the game, his several dunks aroused the endless reverie of the Suns fans.

After being traded, Oden has been sitting on the bench in suits and leather shoes, which made fans think that the Suns had been traded back lonely.

Coupled with the poor record of the Suns this season, Cole has become the target of many radical fans.

But after returning to the air, now Oden is finally about to stage the Suns debut, the fans naturally look forward to it.

When warming up, the scene also featured "Queen Bee" Chris Paul.

The Hornets' current situation is very subtle.

Paul has a close relationship with the 03 generation because of the Beijing Olympics.

The popularity of the Knicks nowadays has also opened up his magic box of desire, just about to move.

Although in front of the media, he has been denying the rumors of the external transaction, but the actual situation is that he did not sign the early renewal contract as before.

In addition to the owner Sean sold the team to the league last year, West also revealed in an interview that he would be out of the contract in the summer.

A team that was still in contention a few years ago seems to be disbanding soon.

But what is very strange is that they played a wave of seven consecutive victories before the All-Star Game, rushing to the fourth place in the Western Conference, and squeezing the Suns one place back.

As a result, the Hornets management, who was planning to send West away on the trading deadline, had no choice but to stand still.

And the Suns' victory last season gave many teams fantasy.

Although it may seem impractical, if the Hornets can maintain this momentum and win the championship in one go, everything will change.

This is the case in the NBA. Many people said a few days ago that they would never leave the team, but they might apply for a trade a few days later.

In the same way, who would really want to leave after a result.

This game is also very important to the Suns.

Because of the poor state of the team and the fierce competition in the West, they are unlikely to recuperate as they did last season.

And this season's opponents are obviously stronger than last season, and it will be more important for them to fight for a more advanced playoff spot.

Different seasons require different strategies.

Especially for direct competitors like the Hornets, they must go all out to win.

The warm-up ended, the scene entered the opening ceremony, and the starting lineups on both sides were released one after another.

Hornets: Paul, Belinelli, James Posey, David West, Okafor

Suns: Nash, Allen, Lin Ying, Frye, Stoudemire

At the beginning of the game, the Hornets showed an excellent competitive state, Paul and West's pick-and-roll also played a considerable lethality.

However, the Suns are not to be outdone here, Lin Ying's performance is still eye-catching.

Because of Nash's continued sluggishness and Stoudemire's adjustment of play, Lin Ying has actually become the core of the Suns.

And Stoudemire's transition state for most of the season has slowly risen.

The only problem is that the Suns' current internal defense combination is really not good, especially when they encounter a point guard like Paul who is very good at keeping pace.

And Paul's defense against Nash was really good.

At this stage, Paul is already the league's first point guard in strength.

It's a bit similar to Howard's status in the NBA. Although Yao Ming is still disadvantaged every time he meets Deron, he can carry it at other times.

Gentry was also forced to replace Frye with Lopez in advance.

The two sides entered the position.

But doing so allowed the Suns to slowly regain the momentum.

This is actually reasonable, because Nash is not in good shape and the Suns are not running well.

But falling into position is what Lin Ying is good at, and he is now the eukaryote of the sun.

After 9 minutes in the first quarter, the Suns led the Hornets 27-24.

The two sides began to enter the rotation one after another.

At this time, the cheers of the Suns fans came to mind on the scene.

Oden is finally replaced!

At this time, the lineups on both sides:

Hornets: Jarrett Jack, Marcus Thornton, Willie Green, West, Jason Smith

Suns: Barbosa, McGrady, Lin Ying, Landry, Oden

Come up with the Hornets offense.

Jack used West's pick-and-roll to kill to the basket, and Oden quickly helped to defend and block shots when he saw it.

The judgment of the ball was correct, but Jack was very clever and relied on Oden to make a shot.

"beep!"

The sidelines whistle, Oden's defensive foul!

This foul speed, confirmed the eyes, is Oden himself!

Gentry reached out and rubbed his forehead.

Just as Lin Ying had thought, in order to get Oden out of his previous foul troubles, the coaching staff did a lot of work.

The most important one is the defensive scale. In terms of defensive awareness alone, Oden was first-rate in Ncaa, but the scale is not good.

It seems that the effect is still not ideal.

Jack's two free throws.

"Relax."

Lin Ying walked over and patted Oden's ass, and said with a smile.

People’s habits are not so easy to change, especially if Oden hasn’t played for more than a week, it will take time to adapt.

Oden nodded.

This past week, he felt more useful than in his four years with the Trail Blazers.

Although there are many things that he needs to digest and absorb, he is sure that he is developing in a good direction.

Jack made two free throws and the Hornets reduced the point difference to 1 point. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

In the Suns' offense, Lin Ying received the ball from a high position on the right, and directly reached out to signal Oden to pull out the pick and roll.

With the increase in flexibility, he is now very effective in dislocation singles playing big men.

But he also depends on people to order dishes. Smith, who is barely a second-rate insider, is his favorite dish.

Oden's pick-and-roll quality is not good, but Green is still a solid block!

This body is too wide!

And thanks to his partner with Conley when he was a student, he has a strong sense of cutting into the basket.

Basically, the moment it was taken apart, it was in Xia Shun.

Lin Ying directly threw the ball into the sky.

Oden was led into the air by the ball, and his huge size directly made Green lose his urge to block.

"Boom!"

With a huge muffled sound, Oden fell from the sky like Tarzan, and directly smashed the ball into the basket.

The basket was directly smashed and pressed down a few centimeters!

With this one dunk, the Suns fans on the spot climaxed.

Who is pregnant with this bodily talent?

After the dunk, Oden's legs landed steadily.

Nelson on the bench nodded in satisfaction after seeing it.

Although not all have met the expectations of the coaching staff, Oden's changes are still visible.

Moreover, Oden was very calm. After dunking, there was basically no change in his expression. After high-five with Lin Ying, he quickly retreated to halftime.

After receiving a pick-and-roll from the front court, West missed Jack's back pass.

The scramble for rebounds under the basket.

"Snapped!"

Oden rose to the ground, taking off defensive rebounds heavily.

Obviously just grab a defensive rebound, but that sense of power is reflected in every detail.

There are already many Suns fans climaxing.

This is a center worth 7 million!

Big center!
