One Guard

Mayo's poor state can't help but worry the Mavericks players. Nowitzki is injured and the Mavericks need everyone who can use it to perform well. In this way, they can achieve a good result before Dirk returns, and then after Dirk returns to hit a higher ranking.

Fortunately, Mayo seemed to regain his vitality in the early training on the day of the game. Mayo, who is only 24 years old, is not Terry, who was in his 30s and Kidd, who was about 40 years old last season. Young people's physical recovery speed is not the envy of old guys.

Seeing Mayo adjust his state, Carlisle was also relieved a lot. In today's game, their opponent is not an infamous team like the Bobcats. If Mayo's state is low, the Mavericks' winning side will definitely decrease a lot.

The Portland Trail Blazers, this team has been gradually on track after experiencing Roy and Oden's era.

Aldridge has grown into a star who can take on the big responsibilities, and Wesley Matthews has also become one of the league's most successful losers. The strength of Frenchman Nicolas Batum has been growing year by year. This year, the Trail Blazers also used a sixth pick to select the powerful older rookie Damien Lillard!

Of course, the most terrifying of the Trail Blazers is their super center An Jie! The horror of this guy raging on the court is not...wait, who is Anjie? Carlisle scratched his head and seemed to be distracted just now.

Facing the Blazers today, what I really have to mention is Carlisle’s former assistant, Terry Stotts! After last season, Stotts and the Mavericks contract expired. When Cuban gave Stotts a bid code, the coach refused. It's not that Cuban didn't give enough money, but at this time, Stotts hopes to get an errand from a head coach. He wants to stand on his own instead of continuing to be another's assistant. ,

Carlisle and Cuban both felt sorry for Stotts' departure. Stotts is a truly outstanding coach. With him, the Mavericks' offense is always well-defined. But it is natural for people to go to high places. Stotts wants to take his career a step further, and Carlisle and Cuban have no reason to stop.

So Carlisle had to say goodbye to Stotts, his right-hand man. The latter received an invitation from the Portland Trail Blazers.

Carlisle knows very well that Stotts is definitely an offensive master. His style is also very suitable for the very aggressive lineup of this Trailblazer team. So today's game is destined to not be easy for the Mavericks. The offensive firepower of the Trail Blazers is bound to bring a lot of trouble to the game.

"LaMarcus Aldridge! Needless to say, you also know how dangerous this taciturn man is! Try not to let him get close to the basket, and even if you stay away from the basket, don't give him a chance to shoot easily. Kaman, I need you to defend Aldridge and use your tonnage and body to suppress him. Brand, you are defending the Portland Trail Blazers at number five. Hickson is a short center, and you don’t eat too much in height. Unfortunately. Of course, in addition to Aldridge, we have to focus on one person." Carlisle finished speaking, compared with a finger.

"Nicholas Batum?" Marion took Carlisle's words.

"The French forward is indeed very powerful, but I am not talking about him. Also, I want you to take good care of the rookie Damien Lillard. Don't take it lightly. The strength of the Trailblazer No. 0 is definitely not for Xiao Xu! "

"Damien Lillard?" Yiyang felt that the name was a bit familiar. He thought of it, as if he had heard of it in college.

At that time, some media were discussing who Yiyang and Lillard were the biggest dark horses in the NCAA this year. However, Yiyang has already started his third NBA season, but Lillard has just entered the league.

"Is this a familiar name? He is an older rookie who announced his participation in the draft after his junior year. People think that he has little potential to be tapped and can only be used as an ordinary immediate combat power. Therefore, he will drop. Come to the sixth. But I think Damien still has a lot of room to develop. He is very strong, so treat him well. I know Stotts, that guy will definitely put more offensive tasks On Lillard. Like, we looked up to you back then."

Yiyang nodded. He didn't care whether the opponent was a rookie, or whether the opponent had played in college for a few years. As long as it is an opponent, knock them all down!

Forty minutes before the start of the game, Yiyang, who had finished the warm-up, was going back to the locker room to change to a clean jersey. When I just warmed up, except for a lot of sweat, I was completely soaked in the one I am wearing now.

Yiyang crossed several corners and was about to walk to the dressing room. In the narrow and bright passage, he met Lillard, the No. 0 guard Carlisle said.

The two looked at each other from a distance, but no one spoke first. Just as the two sides were about to pass by, Lillard suddenly stopped his footsteps. Seeing this situation, Yiyang also stopped. They met for the first time, but they had a special feeling of affection.

In the quiet player passage, there were only Yiyang and Lillard. The distance between the two defenders is no more than one meter, and there are 38 minutes left before the start of the game. It stands to reason that they should not see each other now. But God, arranged such a meeting.

"Hello, Yeah, I often watched you play in college." Like Yiyang, Lillard was cold and didn't talk much.

"Hello Damien, thank you."

"Hey, I like you very much. I like your playing style, your desperate struggle, and your decision to stay in Dallas this summer. You like challenges, don't you? I mean, if you go to the Lakers this summer If you do, then the championship will be too easy for you and Kobe." Lillard didn't stop talking about the person he had been looking up to when he was in college.

"Perhaps, everyone is eager to challenge. In fact, joining the Lakers is actually another challenge."

"Haha, you are exactly what I expected. They all said that my sixth overall ranking is a bit high. But you'd better not think so, because I will definitely try my best later." Lillard Chong Yiyang released the game, how to show respect for a player on the basketball court? It's very simple, fight him with a real sword!

"Rank this thing, it is meaningless to be higher and lower~www.novelmtl.com~ Want to prove yourself? Then come and fight with me!" Yiyang smiled, he suddenly liked Lillard who was both familiar and familiar A strange opponent.

Strange, because this is just the first time Yiyang and Lillard have met. Familiar, Yiyang seemed to see himself in Lillard. Under the taciturn appearance of this kid, there is always a fierce energy revealed!

"Hey, then I'm going to the stadium first! Don't be soft, I can hold it!" Lillard passed Yiyang excitedly, making fists with both hands, his eyes flashing.

Yiyang’s ghostly passing, Rose’s fantasy drawbar, Owen’s gorgeous change of direction, Paul’s comprehensive wisdom, and Westbrook, who challenged the limits of vision with every ball... In this heyday of point guards, no one can think of it. Lillard. When he was in college, he occasionally made headlines in the media and occasionally made people talk about it because of being compared with superstars. But the next day, no one could think of Lillard.

Not high or low draft pick, not bad physical fitness, not cold or hot team influence, unstable three-point shooting, not grandstanding off-court life, only words in the face of the media, cold temperament seems not Give outsiders a chance to get to know him. This can be used to describe Yiyang during his rookie period, and it can also be used to describe Lillard now.

The two guards drifted away in opposite directions in the player channel, but in the end, they were destined to circle back on the court, once again face each other, and then draw their swords!

After returning to the locker room to change to the new jersey, Yiyang jumped on the spot twice. Do you want to fight me so impatiently? I will let you know what the NBA is called, boy!

Yiyang became excited too, wondering how many kilograms of Lillard's name he had heard in college?
