The strongest bishop in the NBA

Chapter 73



Chapter 73

The Wizards' opponent in the opening game of the regular season was the Dallas Mavericks, a veteran team in the West. In 06, the team's core Nowitzki led the team to the finals, but lost to the super god Wade. In the first round of the playoffs in the second year, the Warriors staged a black-eight miracle and eliminated them early.

The current lineup of the Mavericks tends to be perfect. Without Wang Xiao's intervention, after the introduction of Tyson Chandler next year, the Mavericks, whose lineup has reached perfection, will pass all the way to the finals again, and then face the three-man team. The giant's Heat complete their revenge.

Most people don't look at talent.

Even in the era of Arenas, the Wizards won less and lost more when facing the Mavericks, let alone the current Wizards whose core is inexplicably invisible to anyone.

……

In the locker room of the Airline Center Gymnasium in Dallas, Wang Xiao looked at the players who were changing clothes and took a deep breath.

To be honest, this is the first time he stands on the field of an official NBA game as a head coach. It would be a lie to say that he is not nervous. Although he has imagined such a scene countless times, when this day comes, he still bears My heart beat faster.

"Guys, this is the regular season. It's different from the summer league and the preseason. It's going to be real!" Looking around at the players, Wang Xiao said loudly, "This is my first game as a head coach in the NBA." The official game is the same for some of you, don’t be nervous, stay focused, and work hard for every ball, come on!”

Harden immediately nodded and said, "That's right, coach! We must win this game. This is the first victory in our NBA career!"

"That's right! Fuck them!"

The atmosphere in the locker room was very warm, and the players seemed very excited.

But Wang Xiao frowned slightly.

Although a little nervous, he still pays attention to the state of each player. He keenly found that Curry is a little silent today, which is not in line with his always jumping character.

"Are you nervous?"

Wang Xiao stepped forward and patted Curry on the shoulder.

"Don't be too nervous, this is just one game. You have to play at least 82 games this season, maybe there will be more."

"Okay, Coach." Curry nodded, a smile on his face.

Seeing that the time was about the same, Wang Xiao clapped his hands and said, "Okay, get ready to go out and show you to the world!"

The official regular season, whether in terms of attention or other aspects, far exceeds the preseason.

The Mavericks' home stadium, the Airline Center, was nearly packed, and the loud noise felt nothing like it did during the preseason.

The on-site DJ introduced the starting players of the Mavericks for the home team, Kidd and Nowitzki, with a very passionate tone. The appearance of these stars can make the arena cheer.

On such an occasion, rookies such as Curry, whose first game is an away game, are not particularly friendly. After all, they have only seen such scenes in the auditorium or in front of TV in the past, but now, they are standing on the field and are As the visiting team.

Sure enough, as soon as the game started, the team fell into a passive state.

Heywood jumped the ball at the beginning, and Curry got the basketball and quickly controlled the ball to advance.

Standing in front of him was Jason Kidd, the legendary point guard, the prototype of Jeremy Lin.

"Yo, boy, welcome to the NBA."

Looking at Curry, Kidd said hello.

"Thank you." Curry nodded his thanks, but Kidd laughed the next moment.

"This is not saying hello to you, the NBA is a cruel arena."

While speaking, Kidd took a sharp step forward, and his whole body stuck to Curry's body, his hand poked towards the basketball in Curry's hand like lightning, and he actually snatched it close to him as soon as he came up!

Curry was taken aback for a moment, but his instinct as a point guard allowed him to protect the ball in an instant, and he caught Kidd's gap in an instant.

The so-called close press, once you get too close, there will naturally be a gap for breakthrough.

Curry dribbled the ball behind the back neatly, lowered his body and passed Kidd in an instant and rushed towards the inside.

But before taking two steps, Curry felt something was wrong.

Looking aside from the corner of his eye, what Curry saw was Kidd following him.

"Following?"

Slightly startled, Curry immediately understood that the reason why Kidd was able to pass Kidd so easily, could it be that the opponent deliberately let him go half a step and let himself hit the basket?

The next moment, Curry felt a force on his waist, unable to sprint. At this speed, even if he rushed inside, there would be no threat!

"In this case!"

Curry gritted his teeth, and suddenly stopped and took off, trying to make a time difference to open his body and shoot a jumper.

But at the moment he joined the ball, a powerful palm slapped the basketball with incomparable precision.

Kidd, the owner of this hand, immediately grabbed the basketball.

"Kidd! Beautiful steal! Followed by a long pass! Marion receives a pass from Kidd for a layup! Beautiful! Score!"

The commentator was explaining passionately, but Wang Xiao frowned again.

After a poor away debut, another unfortunate situation happened.

Jason Kidd, among all the current point guards in the league, this guy's defense is absolutely top-notch, even Jeremy Lin who uses a template card may not be as good.

Although as he grew older, Kidd lost the agility and agility of the past, but his strength did not decrease at all, and his experience became more mature and sophisticated.

Curry met such an old monster in his first official game, what luck!

Wang Xiao couldn't help but think, it would be great if the Wizards' opponent in the first regular season was the Suns. With Nash's defensive ability, Curry can definitely play with confidence.

Thinking about it, Wang Xiao can't just sit on the sidelines and watch the fun like he did in the previous preseason games.

He stood up and walked to the sidelines.

"Oh? We saw Wang Xiao standing up! He actually stood up at the beginning of the game and wanted to go to the sidelines to direct the game? It is said that he sat on the bench in a daze in the preseason games. Many people suspected that Wang Xiao was It's not just cheering on the players from the seat, and now it doesn't seem to be the case..."

"Hey, Stephen! You are standing opposite Kidd! Are you going to fight him one-on-one? Use your brain! How do you practice in normal training?"

Hearing Wang Xiao's words, Curry nodded, and after halftime possession of the ball, facing Kidd again, Curry looked inside.

Heywood, who was stuck in the inside line, immediately pulled out to help Curry pick and roll.

The pick-and-roll tactic has always been the simplest and most practical tactic in the league, especially for a combo like Curry who can shoot and pass.

After Haywood's wide body blocked Kidd, Curry immediately dribbled the ball to a better position, and then made a quick three-pointer.

The basketball arced across the sky, and then...

"frame--!"
