Chapter 702
Chapter 702
Ben Simmons is called the next magician, a combination of magician and James.He has a height of 208cm, excellent ball handling ability, excellent physical fitness, rare passing vision, and his talent is simply bursting.
In the 2016 draft, the 76ers who held the No. [-] pick decisively chose him and let him partner with Embiid to become the cornerstone of the team.
The reimbursement of his rookie season did not make him sick. He played 81 games last season, averaging 15.8 points, 8.1 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game, and won the undisputed Rookie of the Year award.
The height of 208cm can play point guard, which really feels like a young version of the magician.
Simmons' biggest problem now is that he doesn't have a basket!
Yes, especially the 3-pointers, he didn't hit any last season!
Moreover, unlike those players with poor shooting skills, he doesn't even take shots at all.It's almost to the point where shooting 3 points is like being punished...
Beast doesn't like players like Simmons. He has been staying in his comfort zone and is unwilling to jump out. This is not what a young man should do.You are the No. [-] pick, you were trained by the team as the core of the team, and you are a future superstar. It is so disappointing that you are so unwilling to try technological breakthroughs and always unwilling to improve your shortcomings.
No, the teammates are all practicing 3-pointers, even the center king is practicing, but he just doesn't practice, which makes people speechless!
But this is Simmons. Although he is inaccurate in 3-pointers, but because he is too good in other aspects and is only 22 years old, the 76ers still use him and the emperor as a dual-core team without hesitation.
In Beast's view, a person like Simmons who has psychological problems and is unwilling to change is a softie.No one is born with it, but if you are unwilling to try and jump out of your comfort zone, you will never have the opportunity to become a true leader.
After all, the times have changed. In the past, it was okay for guards not to shoot 3-pointers, because there were not many 3-pointers in a game.Now that pick-and-rolls are mainstream in the league, you don’t have 3-point ability, and the threat of pick-and-rolls is greatly reduced. The opponent’s inside line can stay comfortably in the penalty area to protect the basket, and just let you break through.
Stronger than James, in the Cavaliers 1.0 period, because 3-pointers and mid-range jumpers were not enough to kill people, in the playoffs they would be targeted by the opponent's zone defense and defense, let alone someone like Simmons who didn't shoot 3-pointers at all up.
Simmons didn't react when he saw the beast next door put on a show dunk, but the emperor looked at the handsome figure of the beast quietly.
Compared with the Buddhist Xidi, the Great Emperor is ambitious.He has long wanted to be crowned, what MVP championship, what the league's number one center, he wants it all.
And obviously, to get these, he had to step over the beast not far from him.
Practice is over, and the game will start soon.
The game was broadcast live on TNT, and the old partners Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley were responsible for the commentary.
Charles Barkley used to play for the 76ers. He was a famous "beast black" before, and the league was also very interested, so he was specially asked to explain this game.
Kenny Smith said: "Charles, today I asked you to explain Tom Shou's game that you don't like. Do you think he will be blown up by Joel Embiid?"
Barkley pouted, and said, "Kenny, I never said that Joel could beat Tom up, don't trick me!"
Kenny Smith said slyly, "You weren't..."
"Shut up Kenny, my commentary has always been very objective. Tom's strength is obvious to all, and I think he is also very strong!" Barkley said angrily.
The starting lineups of both sides debuted, and Embiid said in his ear while hugging the beast: "I will beat you!"
Beast responded with a smile: "I really like hearing you say that!"
Seeing the relaxed look of the beast, Embiid was out of breath.Lao Tzu has issued a letter of challenge, Nima, can you be more serious?
Allen and Embiid jump the ball near the middle circle, and the game is about to start.
At the start of the jump ball, Embiid beat Allen with the jump ball, and the 76ers won the first wave of offensive possession.
Fu Son dribbles the ball across half court.
Fu Son graduated from the University of Washington and was the No. 2017 pick in the [-] draft.
In the 2017-18 season, Fuzi only played 14 games, averaging 7.1 points, 3.8 assists and 3.1 rebounds per game.During the game, there will be inexplicable abnormal movements, and he has a weird shooting posture. He is not confident enough, often makes mistakes, and various problems, so that the talented boy who used to be proud of the league is suddenly questioned. Some fans even make fun of him. Action, in the 2017-18 season, he was often unable to play due to illness. What's worse, the trainer said that he had shooting nervousness and would completely forget the shooting action.
From Beast's point of view, it can only be said that the 76ers' luck is too bad, and no one can be blamed.
The draft is also a gamble, and the high-ranking rookie has a bigger gamble and a higher cost.
Rich Son gave the ball to Simmons.
Simmons holds the ball and faces Wiggins, a dialogue between the top picks.
Simmons and Saric pick and roll!
The beast goes straight back and shoots you!
Simmons didn't shoot, and he probably didn't dare to shoot, so he went straight to the inside!
Here, Allen wanted to attack, but the beast said, "Leave it to me!"
Simmons forced the beast, did not attract the flanker, he threw the ball to the rich son in the bottom corner.
Rich Son hits with a weird jumper—near misses!
The beast closed the board, came over with the ball by himself, and distributed it to Boubois who followed up in the middle!
Beaubois chased for 3 points and was blocked by Covington, and the ball bounced into the hands of the beast by accident!
The beast catches the ball and shoots a mid-range jumper-but the ball is a bit short!
The beast throws and grabs itself, making up the ball!
The Nets took the lead in scoring at the start! 2:0!
The 76ers attacked here, Covington tried to hit Beaubois with his height, but the ball was cut off by the latter when it was exposed!
Beaubois counterattacked with a steal, but was destroyed by Covington's tactical foul.
Kenny Smith said: "Robert still underestimated Rodrigue, he was a player in the best defensive team last season."
Barkley nodded and said: "Rodrigue's defense is very good, and he cannot be underestimated just because he is not tall."
The Nets attacked, Holiday dribbled over, and the beast picked and rolled!
The Beast fired an outside bullet, forcing the opponent to switch defenses.
Holiday beats Saric, and points follow up with the beast!
The Beast followed up and faced Prime Minister Sa, who was in a chaotic position, and forced the basket to cause the latter to foul!
The Nets fans at the scene cheered. The duo between Beast and Holiday just now made the fans feel that the tacit understanding between the two is not at all like teammates who just formed a team this summer.
The two clapped their hands together. They both have a relationship with the 76ers. They were teammates with the 76ers for one year, but many people don't remember it anymore.
