NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal - Vol 2 Chapter 997
Surprisingly, the Thunder won in the end.
For the Thunder, Westbrook scored a double-double of 12 points and 10 assists in just 18 minutes. Oladipo scored 18 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists in 20 minutes. Kanter scored 15 points and 8 rebounds off the bench. Christon had 10 points and 2 assists…
In this game, the Thunder broke out from the starting lineup to the substitutes. The team shot 51% from the field and 48.5% from the three-point range, which is quite exaggerated.
In the end, the Thunder defeated the Trail Blazers 107:97 and won two consecutive victories in the preseason.
To be honest, Wang Zelin was quite surprised to lose this game in the end, but fortunately, it was just a preseason game, and he and other teammates didn’t take it seriously.
Today he only played 17 minutes, easily scored 17 points and 9 rebounds, and went off to chat with Kendou.
So far, the Trail Blazers’ preseason tour of heaven is completely over, with a record of 1 win and 1 loss.
Time flies, the Trail Blazers ushered in the seventh preseason game, and the opponent is the Mosaic team.
The Mosaic team has just formed a two-gun combination of Harden and Anthony, and the effect is quite remarkable.
Since the Mosaic team met the Trail Blazers before, they basically ended in disastrous defeats. After Xia Tian traded the rifle, he wanted to win the Trail Blazers, including the preseason.
In the last game of the preseason, the Trail Blazers continued to adjust the lineup and train newcomers, but the Mosaic team did play normally.
In the end, the Mosaic team won the game, but the Blazers continued to show the depth of the bench.
Zubac’s eye-catching performance scored a double-double of 15 points and 11 rebounds, showing the rare stability of a rookie. In contrast, McCaw’s competitive state has fluctuated, and he has obviously not adapted to the rhythm of the NBA game. He played 22 minutes and only scored 3 points and 4 rebounds.
The Mosaic team had a strong desire to win this game, and they played hard. Zhou Qi didn’t get any playing time in this game.
In a blink of an eye, it has come to the end of October, and the NBA preseason has come to an end.
The Blazers have a record of 5 wins and 2 losses in 7 games.
The main purpose is to run in the lineup and train amazingly. This record is not bad and acceptable.
And after these few games, the Trail Blazers have gained a lot.
The biggest gain is naturally Jokic.
The second-round pick selected by the Trail Blazers in the 2014 draft has been making breakthroughs every year. It is estimated that no one expected that this white fat man from Serbia would have such a strong potential.
After 7 regular season games, he averaged 25 minutes per game, 15 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists per game, shooting 54% from the field and 37% from the three-point range.
Although it is only a preseason game, this performance is enough to convince countless Trail Blazers fans that he can play a good role as the team’s starting power forward in the new season.
Considering that Jokic served as the starter for a period of time in the regular season last season, the chemical reaction with Wang Zelin’s partner is very good, which makes many people look forward to his performance in the new season.
The other one is Zubac.
The rookie player in this year’s draft has shown extraordinary stability, averaging 10.2 points and 6.5 rebounds in 7 games, which is quite eye-catching among rookies in the same class.
During the preseason, one of the two second-round picks selected by the Trail Blazers this year obviously has the qualifications to become a talent.
People can’t help feeling once again Wang Zelin’s almost prophetic draft vision.
Let’s take another look at a No. 23 black stewed egg who did not want to be named…
Tsk tsk, why is there such a big gap between people?
Ahem, let’s get down to business.
With the end of the preseason, the pace of the new season is infinitely approaching.
At this time, the management of each team began to get busy again.
According to the NBA’s season rules, there is no upper limit on the number of teams before the start of the preseason, but the roster must be reduced to 15 before the start of the regular season.
Every team has personnel turnover in the summer, and most teams are not all guaranteed contracts.
Most teams will sign a roster with more than 15 players before the season, and use intra-team competition to determine the few players at the end of the lineup.
Fans of other teams Tianchao don’t care much, what they care most about are the three players of Tianchao.
Unfortunately, the result is regrettable.
Guo Ailun was waived in the middle of the preseason, and Ding Yanyuhang was removed by the Mavericks after the preseason. Only Zhou Qi, who was selected by the Mosaic team through a serious draft, successfully stayed on the team.
Compared with Zhou Qi, Guo Ailun and Ding Yanyuhang are a bit older, and their various advantages and strengths in the CBA league, in the NBA where basketball talents gather all over the world, they appear extremely mediocre.
Being laid off was actually expected.
But on the night Ding Yanyuhang was laid off, after a phone conversation with Wang Zelin, he finally made up his mind to sign a one-year contract with the Dallas Legends, an NBDL team affiliated with the Mavericks, and continue to work hard for his dream.
Chase your dreams while you are young!
For Ding Yan Yuhang’s thoughts, both Wang Zelin and domestic fans sent him blessings and encouragement at the first time.
At the same time, other teams also completed layoffs one after another.
However, the Trail Blazers’ roster just happened to have 15 people, so there is no need to worry about this problem.
Under such circumstances, it becomes very easy to start the regular season of the new season.
There are still three days before the arrival of the regular season of the new season. At this time, the Portland Trail Blazers, from the old Carter to the young Jokic, from the rookie Zubac to the old fritter Batum, from the players to the coaches, are all successful. Take a slice!
The experience of winning the championship for three consecutive seasons has brought the team atmosphere of the Trail Blazers to a record high, and the Binocular League is also one of the best.
At this time, the Blazers players don’t care about personal data, they don’t care about the competition between the same positions, they only have one goal-to win together!
In the last three days of the countdown to the regular season, the daily training performance of the Trail Blazers players is gratifying.
After 7 preseason games, Carter and other veterans quickly recovered their form, and even the veterans trained very hard.
As for the young people of the team, Coach Terry is delighted by their great progress.
On October 25th, after a long offseason ~www.mtlnovel.com~ the curtain of the regular season finally kicked off.
There are a total of 9 games on this day. There is a focus game in each of the East and West. The Cavaliers face the Bulls and the Warriors face the Spurs.
Among them, the game between the Warriors and the Spurs has attracted much attention.
The Golden State Warriors got Durant in the summer and became the most popular team to win the season. The Spurs also traded for Bogt to fill Duncan’s vacancy and still maintain the championship.
This is a head-to-head confrontation between two Western powerhouses!
The opening game of the Trail Blazers will be one day later. Since the two teams are new seasons and the main competitors, he also took Lillard and Jokic together, and stayed in the arena to live broadcast the game after training.
