Super Heavy Artillery - v3 Chapter 651

“Super Heavy Gun ( to find the latest chapter!

A week before the start of the preseason, the Thunder’s training hall was completely lively. At this time, the Thunder’s lineup was basically determined.

Gallinari made up the gap that Paul George left. Although he often played the fourth position in the Clippers, Donovan let him return to the third position. Compared to Paul George’s excellent performance on both ends of the offense and defense, Gallinari’s offense can basically fill the vacancy in the Thunder’s third position. However, Gallinari’s defense is indeed much worse than Paul George. .

But there is good news, Robertson has recovered. As long as he returns to the court, the Thunder’s defense will go further. By then, the Thunder will still be a strong defensive team.

Grant was almost traded by Presti this season, but in the end, his growth moved the Thunder’s management. Last season, after Robertson was injured, Grant topped the starting number four. At first, everyone was worried about whether the Thunder would lose the championship due to such changes. After all, the role of a team’s defense in the playoffs and finals is extremely important.

However, Grant’s maturity and ability on the defensive end made everyone feel relieved. Although it is still a bit worse than Robertson, it is enough for most games. What’s more, Grant’s offensive ability is much stronger than Robertson. Having such an excellent offensive and defensive player on the court also prevents Paul George and Anlo from being double-teamed endlessly by each other.

It must be said that Grant’s rapid growth has become an important part of the Thunder’s defense. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why he can be in the Thunder. Of course, it may also be that Presti can’t find a strong enough player in the fourth position on the free market.

Alexander, a second-year player from the Clippers, was placed in the first position by Donovan. Judging from the actual situation, this young man is definitely more than just an exchange between Paul George and Gallinari. With Presti’s vision, he would definitely not pick a rookie casually.

In the 2018 NBA Draft, the 20-year-old Alexander was selected by the Hornets. The team signed this potential player with the 11th pick in the first round. However, before he could play for the Hornets, Alexander was traded to the Clippers. . Therefore, the Clippers have also become the starting station of Alexander’s career. As a representative of the high draft, the lottery show members will get a certain amount of attention no matter which team they are in. Alexander is no exception.

In the 2018-19 season, when the Clippers were in a rebuilding period, training new players was also important to the team, so Alexander had plenty of opportunities to play. This year, he was full attendance in 82 games, and started up to 73 games. In an average of 26.5 minutes per game, Alexander can contribute 10.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 3.3 assists. This data is rarely matched by the rookie group. To the height. Although the pressure at this time is not the core of the Clippers, but in the release of ability and value, Alexander has become an extremely important player for the Clippers.

But when Alexander thought he would make a big splash in Los Angeles, the “calculation” of the business alliance gave him a headshot. This summer, in the transaction about George, Alexander was regarded as the licking head of the transaction and the “victim” He was also sent to Thunder relentlessly.

However, compared to those players who have been “assigned to the frontier”, Alexander is lucky. After all, the Thunder is a team with two consecutive championships. Although the strength has been damaged, it is better than the Clippers last season. Young players need more than just enough playing time. What is learned in a team with championship blood has a great influence on their growth.

Westbrook, Anlow and Adams have become the stable framework left over from the first two seasons. They are also the core of the Thunder’s offensive and defensive ends in the new season. However, if you want this carriage to run smoothly, you cannot rely on this light frame. A few days before the start of the preseason, Donovan took his players to train intensively.

When Anlo returned to Oklahoma, the Thunder’s training camp had already started for several days. Although An Luo returned to the training hall the first time, he still couldn’t participate in the training with Westbrook and others.

Although Anluo has been training and playing with the national team during the offseason, he still has to accept the physical test of the Thunder. This is a test that all players must accept before the start of each season. NBA officials and clubs must make sure that players have enough ability to participate in the next new season.

Therefore, on his first day at Chesapeake Energy Arena ~www.mtlnovel.com~, Anlo could only sit on the sidelines and watch his teammates train.

Judging from the final match, both the players who stayed last season or the new players are in good condition. In particular, Alexander, a second-year player, did not fall behind in the matchup with Westbrook. However, Alexander is obviously not quite used to the role of the one position, and his style of play is more biased towards shooting guards. Donovan couldn’t help it. If he hadn’t traded for a good point guard in the free market, he wouldn’t have thought about training one by himself.

But now it seems that Alexander is not only used as a substitute for Westbrook, he is fully capable of teaming up with Westbrook when Anlow is resting, he has that potential.

Gallinari’s performance was average. It’s not that he played badly. In fact, Gallinari’s style of play fits well with the Thunder. He didn’t use the ball to attack too much, but used his moves and screens to find shots. Such a style of play, An Luo didn’t know whether it was Gallinari’s own ability or the result of Donovan’s training these days. Anyway, Westbrook and others have long been familiar with this style of play.

Robertson, who has returned from injury, is in good shape, his defense is still strong, and his offense is still hip. Adams’ footsteps are still a major drawback of the Thunder’s defensive end, but his finishing ability, blocking ability and rebound protection ability at the basket are still an indispensable part of the Thunder’s lineup. The rest of the players, Westbrook, Ferguson, Diallo, Noelle, Burton, etc. are still the same.

In short, everything is fine. In Anluo’s view, this year’s Thunder is not much different from last year’s. An Luo can’t wait to join the training, train with his teammates, and work hard together for the new season.
