Arriving at the hotel in Phoenix at 11 o'clock in the morning, Zhang Hao went to the apartment rented by Hu Weidong as scheduled.
"Haozi, you're here, please come in, please come in This is your sister-in-law Yu Hui."
"Hello, brother Hu, hello, sister-in-law"
"This kid is more handsome than he looks on TV. What would you like to drink, tea, coffee or something?"
This adjective has a real sense of age. Zhang Hao responded: "Sister-in-law, just pour me a glass of juice."
After chatting for a while, Zhang Hao asked: "Brother Hu, are you used to it in the NBA?"
"The players in the NBA are so strong, and the team is more professional than I imagined, especially the team doctors. They are so good. They even pointed out to me the impact of every detail of my power movements on my body. Together with the trainer, After research, tell me how to adjust to avoid fouls and other problems to the greatest extent"
¡°The Suns¡¯ team doctors are very good, and our team is also in contact with the people from FAA.¡±
"Really? I don't even know. Thank you so much for recommending me to the Suns"
We had lunch at Hu Weidong¡¯s house and talked about playing in the NBA. There wasn¡¯t much to talk about. After lunch, Zhang Hao returned to the hotel.
Hu Weidong played as a backup shooting guard for the Suns. He performed very well and established a firm foothold. Zhang Hao has already received many life-span bonuses, more than Wang Zhizhi's, which is an unexpected surprise.
In 14 games, Hu Weidong played more than 15 minutes in 11 games, 10 of which lasted more than 20 minutes. He averaged 20.5 minutes per game, scoring 11.5 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.3 blocks. At his peak, Hu Weidong became a An important part of the Suns' defensive line.
This made Zhang Hao regret not calling Hu Weidong to their team But the situation at that time was not suitable. At Hu Weidong's age, it is definitely more suitable to go to a stable team, whether it is stable bad or stable strong , are better than going to a team that is rebuilding and needs to risk its life to win.
And Zhang Hao was just drooling looking at Hu Weidong's statistics. Hu Weidong was able to play so well in the Suns, which had a brisk and flexible offense. But when he came to the SuperSonics, his style of play didn't match at all.
¡¡
"What do you think of Sanpao's performance in the NBA?"
"Brother Hu's performance is very good. I'm happy for him No, no, no, it's not all my fault. I just recommended him to go to the Suns. He relied on his performance in trial training, training camp and With my performance in the preseason, I earned playing time."
"Have you ever thought about partnering with Sanpao in the future?"
"Do you have any ideas about partnering with Brother Hu? We will partner again next September."
"Tonight you are going to play against each other in the NBA. This should be your first time playing against each other. When you played against Sanpao before, you gave Sanpao a hot pot. Do you have any ideas to repeat it?"
"It would be great if there is a chance to match up, but the two of us are not in the same position, but I will try my best to block more shots for Brother Hu in the same way, and express my deepest blessing for him to enter the NBA"
On the morning of the 29th, Zhang Hao followed the team to the home court of the Suns.
After arriving at the arena and before the pre-match meeting, Zhang Hao accepted an exclusive interview with Chaotingtai.
"Uncle, why isn't that aunt here to interview me this time?"
"Auntie Hahahaha, your mouth is getting more and more vicious. She wants to take advantage of your popularity, be bound to you, and become your exclusive reporter, but you don't care about the relationship behind her at all. I didn't expect that. .¡±
¡°I wish her good luck, I think she will be able to find her destined son What is the connection behind that aunt?¡±
"It's hard to say."
"Then let's not talk about this. Will you still lead the team in next year's Olympics?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Can our men's basketball team not stay at the Olympics? I'll pay to rent a resort."
"Of course not. We are a country and a big team, how can we go out alone? Haozi, you don't have enough political consciousness!"
"I read the news and found that the Olympic Village in Sydney was badly repaired. It was still near a smelly ditch. The ditch was filled with soil. Even drainage was a problem."
"No way! Our men's basketball team can't do anything special. Is it possible that the entire Olympic team will follow you and move out of the Olympic Village?"
"Should I invite the entire Olympic team to come with me? There must be hundreds of people, right? I'll probably book a big hotel and it'll be about the same."
"¡¡impossible!"
Zhang Hao is a bit confused. He has discovered that except for the 2008 Olympic Games, the infrastructure and other aspects of other Olympic Games are very poor. Not many people have noticed this these days. This is because of the dissemination of information.?The defense is average, supported by Kidd on the outside, Clifford Robinson on the inside, and Luke Longley on the bench.
?????????????? Rebounding is average, and Kidd is the best at rebounding.
The Sonics didn¡¯t make any changes in their playing style tonight, just like Larry Brown¡¯s team and the Heat¡¯s current team. Even if they are tough, they can only be tough.
Before the game, Zhang Hao and Hu Weidong accepted photo requests from domestic reporters on the sidelines. Soon, the two teams devoted themselves to their preparations.
The fans at the scene have been booing Zhang Hao since he entered the stadium. In the 1997 and 1998 playoffs, the Lakers defeated the Suns, and the hatred was concentrated on Zhang Hao's side.
Soon, under the unruly bragging from Barkley, the game was about to begin.
Zhang Hao was applying magnesium powder when the system prompt came!
"Special contract player Zhang Hao is only 4 assists shy of averaging a triple-double in the first 13 games of the new season. The second phase of the series of missions, Return of the King: Legendary Prelude, has been triggered."
¡°Legendary Prologue: The Second Phase of the Return of the King mission.
Goal: Under the guidance of the host, Zhang Hao needs to get at least 14 assists in the next game against the Suns.
Reward: Special card: as long as you are determined enough.
As long as you are determined enough: The host can use this special card in a game against Kobe Bryant. Kobe Bryant will enter the "Desperate" mode, and the only goal when getting the ball is to shoot. (Note, worth 60 days of life.)"
"Legendary prologue, the name of the task is good, goal, 14 assists Yes, even if I have 0 points and 0 rebounds tonight, my points and rebounds per game can still reach the standard. I am just short of 14 assists. This is the reward What the hell? Did Kobe, who was almost perfect when he entered the NBA, use this and he scored 81 points?"
¡¡
At 6:58, the two teams started.
The Suns sent out a starting combination of Kidd, Anfernee Hardaway, Rodney Rogers, Clifford Robinson, and Gugliotta.
The SuperSonics sent out a starting combination of Cassell, Ruben Patterson, Artest, Zhang Hao and Ratliff.
During the opening game, I was excited and didn¡¯t feel much about the pressure brought by the 76ers. A few days ago, I played the Pacers on the second day of back-to-back games. I was tired and didn¡¯t pay much attention to the pressure.
The SuperSonics have played 13 games this season. The most stressful thing is when they play the Jazz. Without outside shooters, they basically have no ability to resist.
But when we played against the Suns today and saw the opposing lineup after taking the field, SuperSonics players, even Zhang Hao, were under tremendous pressure.
Fortunately, Zhang Hao¡¯s calm face calmed down his teammates.
But when the Suns saw the SuperSonics players on the court, and then looked at the sidelines, the pressure was not small.
Although the Sonics averaged only 92.3 points per game in the first 13 games, they conceded an average of 86 points per game! At the beginning of the season, the SuperSonics showed the most troublesome characteristic for top teams in the playoffs - a defensive team.
Everyone knows that in the middle and late seasons of the season, the Sonics will not be able to maintain their current ranking of third in the Western Conference. It may be difficult to enter the playoffs, but once they enter the playoffs, especially after entering the season in the sixth to eighth positions. In the game, for the upper-level teams, they can no longer go crazy.
Look at the Heat, who were defeated by the Knicks in the first round for two consecutive years. Now even though they are ranked third in the Eastern Conference, they are still "expelled" from the ranks of championship-level teams by the media and fans.
When such a team has a player like Zhang Hao, it is even more terrifying!
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the referee blew the whistle to start the game. Zhang Hao easily won the jump ball from Gugliotta's head, and the SuperSonics attacked first!
Zhang Hao came down immediately after landing, received a steady long pass from Cassel, attracted a double attack, distributed the ball, and Reuben Patterson cut in from the wing and hit a throw!
If the Suns fall into a positional battle, with Kidd on the outside, Anfernee Hardaway playing good defense, Clifford Robinson up front covering the mid-range, and Gugliotta under the basket, that would be okay, but They really can't defend against fast breaks.
But just after Ruben Patterson hit a layup, Gugliotta, who rushed back, received the ball and served quickly. Kidd received the ball and passed the ball long, and Anfernee Hardaway received the ball and avoided it like an elf. Kai shrank back to cover the defense and hit a jump layup!
I like to play basketball too much. What should I do if I am too powerful? What should I do to update the fastest. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
