Chapter 60 NBA Debut 1
"Rookie, if you are nervous and don't know what to do on the court, then focus on defense. Defense can help you focus on the game."
The moment he stepped onto the court, Gary Payton didn't forget to give some advice.
Wang Hao nodded. In fact, although he was nervous, it didn't make him overwhelmed.
Some people's minds will go blank during the competition, and they will be extremely nervous. In the end, they still lack confidence.
If you are confident enough, this will never be possible.
Wang Hao is so confident that he uses cheats when playing games. If he still can't win, then uninstall the game.
"Beep!"
Although the referee's whistle sounded and the game officially started, Wang Hao finally stepped onto the NBA court.
"NBA, here I come!"
China, Beijing!
"Hello, viewers, this is China TV Sports Channel, welcome everyone to watch today's program.
Okay, there's news from the director that the game has started, let's go to the game site."
On Huaxia TV, an extremely familiar voice sounded. It was Sun Zhengping, the famous host of Huaxia TV.
"The two sides fighting today are the Seattle SuperSonics and the Los Angeles Clippers. The SuperSonics are Wang Hao's team."
The two of them had actually been chatting for half an hour before the game started, which was considered a warm-up before the game.
After all, the NBA today is not that well-known in China. Everyone only knows that it is the top basketball game in the world.
Players from both sides had just entered the stadium, and Sun Zhengping simply asked: "Director Zhang has interviewed Wang Hao and should be very familiar with Wang Hao. What do you think of him?"
Zhang Lili said: "Let's talk about level first. It goes without saying that if you can enter the NBA, you must have talent and strength.
However, what impressed me the most was Wang Hao's self-confidence and self-discipline, which are the most rare.
Perhaps because of the different basketball atmosphere he received, Wang Hao is very confident in his playing style and dares to take responsibility during the game.
There is also self-discipline. As far as I know, during the offseason, when most NBA players are in the room, he has been training.
From being a player with the last overall pick in the league who barely entered the league to being a starter now, it was all earned through his hard work."
…
After all, he is relatively familiar with Wang Hao, and domestic fans know that Wang Hao has a lot to do with Zhang Lili.
Now that he has the opportunity, he will naturally not be stingy with words of praise.
However, when Sun Zhengping heard this, he felt that it was a bit too much and seemed too perfect.
In other words, he was relatively familiar with Zhang Lili, otherwise, he would have thought that Zhang Lili had received money from others.
"Okay, the game has begun, let us turn our attention to the game."
At the beginning of the game, both sides jumped the ball. With a height of 213 centimeters, Tangren took the lead.
No way, as his weight continues to increase, Wen Baker's bounce has gradually disappeared.
No one has much hope for a jump ball. No, everyone is ready to retreat early.
Eric Murdock dribbled the ball across half court and handed the ball directly to Odom, who held the ball high.
Wang Hao immediately came over. I have to say that the Yu Po team has so many opportunities with just this advantage.
As soon as Odom entered the team, the coach gave him huge freedom to build offensive tactics around him.
Unlike guarding other big players, Wang Hao did not stick to Odom, but stayed one step away.
After all, Odom is not a bulky big player, and his breakthrough is not bad either.
Coupled with that passing hand, if he pulls the defense away, it is easy for other Clippers to get opportunities, and he can also pass the ball.
In comparison, it is more reasonable to let Odom shoot.
In fact, Odom's shooting is not stable. It all depends on his condition. This kind of thing is unpredictable.
A player who was very accurate in the first half failed to score a single goal in the second half, or failed to score a single goal in the first half, but in the second half he hit all the shots.
Things like state are completely unpredictable before the game.
Odom held the ball and waited for his teammates to move. After there was no chance, he started to attack.
I saw him pretending to be ready to throw, but then he immediately broke through, only to be blocked as soon as he took one step.
Wang Hao didn't take any chances and blocked the attack immediately, giving Odom no chance to break through.
Odom is not surprised. After all, his height is too high, his center of gravity is too high, and his movements are relatively slow.
The media commented that he is flexible and has the ability to break through, which is compared to players in the same position.
But Wang Hao is shorter than him and naturally reacts faster.
However, Odom was not in a hurry. When he saw Wang Hao defending him, he had already thought of a way.
Although the two are not very good friends, they have trained together many times because of Artest.
Wang Hao is very familiar with this kind of thing.
Odom, who failed to break through, immediately controlled the ball and then pushed in with his back to Wang Hao.
Who would have thought that the first push of force did not push the ball forward.
Not only that, but at this time, Gary Payton cooperated with the defense in a tacit understanding, and Wang Hao also started to take action.
Assisting in defense is not necessarily a passive response, but can also be proactive.
That is to say, Odom sees opportunities quickly and is tall and has long arms. He picks up the ball and passes it out, otherwise he will lose it.
"Good shot, great defense!"
There was a scene with Wang Hao in the first round, and Wang Hao performed pretty well. Of course Zhang Weiping has to praise him.
After continuously delaying time, Eric Murdoch took a hasty shot after getting the ball, without any aim at all.
Horace protected the rebound and Gary Payton advanced with the ball.
However, after holding the ball to the top of the arc, Gary Payton didn't rush down low or ask for a pick-and-roll.
Like Odom, he is waiting for his teammates to move.
I saw Brent Barry coming out from the baseline and trying to catch the ball. Just when everyone's attention was attracted, there was also action on the other side.
Wang Hao, who was originally moving slowly in the paint and even set up a pick-and-roll for Brent Barry, suddenly accelerated!
A beautiful reverse run, which directly threw Odom away. In addition, the others were not prepared, and there was no one to defend him.
Almost in an instant, Wang Hao suddenly came out and came outside the three-point line, followed closely by Gary Payton's pass.
Wang Hao, who was unmarked, did not take a hasty shot. Instead, he glanced at the basket and made some preparations.
Seeing that Odom was about to pounce, Wang Hao already took action.
The basketball flew past Odom's fingertips, jumped over everyone under the basket, and fell steadily into the basket.
"Whoa!"
3:0
"Good shot, the SuperSonics opened the scoring with Chinese player Wang Hao. This is also Wang Hao's first score in the NBA."
Sun Zhengping looked happy and explained the game loudly.
Zhang Lili also said: "A very beautiful goal, from running to catching the ball, it's so exciting.
More importantly, the head coach arranged for Wang Hao to implement the tactical arrangements at the beginning, which is of great significance."
"Yes, this shows that Wang Hao has been recognized by coaches and teammates."
Chapter completed!
