Chapter 1014 New and Old Forces
In the game played on the same day, the Pacers defeated the 122ers 115:75 in overtime at home, giving the 75ers an eight-game losing streak at the start of the season.
For the Pacers, Jeff Teague scored 30 points, George contributed 28 points and 8 rebounds, and the two scored 9 points in overtime to win.
On the side of the 75ers, the most anticipated player is Joel Embiid, who has been injured for two years and has been nicknamed "Twitter King" by the way.
After announcing the season's reimbursement for two consecutive seasons, Joel Embiid, who was the third pick in the 2014 draft, finally ushered in his NBA debut in the 2016-17 season.
It turned out that Embiid did live up to the two-year expectations of Philadelphia fans.
75人的揭幕战上，恩比德以首发中锋出场22分钟，16投6中轰下20分7篮板2盖帽，表现相当亮眼。
In the next seven games, although Embiid played and stopped, he still showed quite good immediate combat power.
第二场打老鹰，出战15分钟，拿到14分2篮板1助攻1抢断2盖帽；
第三场打魔术，出战25分钟，拿到18分10篮板3助攻4盖帽；
第五场打骑士，恩比德直接对位现役第二中锋德马库斯·考辛斯，出战25分钟，13投7中，三分球4中4，高效砍下20分6篮板2助攻1抢断4盖帽。
The only fly in the ointment is that there were 6 turnovers, but from the perspective of a "rookie" player, Embiid's performance is undoubtedly quite amazing.
It can be said that after this battle, Embiid succeeded in stepping on Cousins' shoulders and was recognized by a large number of fans.
If it is said that the fans were pure ridicule and ridicule towards his "Twitter King" in the past two years, then after these few games, the word "Twitter" has been removed, leaving only the word "Twitter".
Joel Embiid is the emperor in the hearts of the people of Philadelphia!
In this battle with the Pacers, although the 75ers regretted losing and it was hard to find a victory at the beginning of the season, Embiid's performance was still quite conspicuous.
He played a total of 26 minutes in this game, setting a career high, and scored a double-double of 28 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks, and won the first double-double of his NBA career.
Although 5 turnovers in a single game may be eye-catching, but for the 75ers management and fans, Embiid completely convinced them with his performance every game.
Embiid seems to have become the new King of Philadelphia!
As for Jahlil Okafor, who performed well last season and averaged 17.5 seven rebounds per game, he has been ruthlessly abandoned by them.
So far in the new season, the small theater between the 75ers and Okafor is roughly as follows:
Philadelphia 75ers: "Okafor, you still don't call in the future, I'm afraid Embiid will misunderstand."
Okafor: "No~~~"
……
In addition to the game between the 75ers and the Pacers, there are still 9 games today.
In the New York Derby, the Nets came to Madison Square Garden to challenge the Knicks away. With Jeremy Lin injured, the Nets had to face back-to-back games.
Fortunately, Anthony chose to leave the team in the summer, and the Knicks were seriously injured. In the end, the Nets defeated the Knicks 110:96 in an away game to win the New York Derby.
The Bulls and Eagles are competing against each other.
In the end, the Bulls relied on the new Big Three combination of Rose, Wade, and Davis to easily kill the Eagles 115:101, ushering in a wave of 4 consecutive victories.
The team's record rose to 7 wins and 2 losses, for the second place in the East, second only to the Cleveland Cavaliers with 8 wins and 1 loss.
That's right, although it was two months later than Wang Zelin remembered, Wade finally left the Miami Heat, where he had played for 13 seasons, and chose to join his hometown team, the Chicago Bulls.
At the signing ceremony with the Bulls, Wade said he made the right choice this time.
This is the team he dreamed of in his boyhood, and this time he has fulfilled his boyhood dream.
Of course, Wade's return home is not only caused by the fulfillment of his dream, otherwise he would have been able to wear the Bulls jersey a few years ago.
Although it was two months late, the reason why Wade left the team was exactly the same as that of Wang Zelin.
If the NBA team is regarded as a company, then there are two reasons why players choose to leave the team. One is that the money is not in place, and the other is that they feel wronged.
The Flash’s loyalty to the Heat is unquestionable. In the past 13 years, he has done his best for the team and helped the team win three championship trophies, but... This summer, facing the 1000 million yuan annual salary offered by the Heat’s management, Wade did not feel the slightest respect.
Heat boss Mickey Arison is not short of money. He owns the largest yacht group in the world. His personal assets reached 2016 billion yuan in 72, ranking fourth among NBA bosses.
The top three are Clippers owner Ballmer, Blazers owner Paul Allen and Nets owner Prokhorov.
It's just that people don't want to give generously to Wade, the soul of the Heat!
In this way, Wade meets all the above two points.
Since the Heat are not respected, and the team is not strong enough to win the championship, it is better to return to the hometown team to play for a dream in the New Year era.
The Bulls showed great respect for Wade, and not only offered a two-year contract worth 4750 million yuan, but the second year was a player option.
Lang is affectionate, concubine is interested, Flash Wade quickly chose to return to his hometown team, and formed a new Big Three with Ross and Davis, two young talents.
别看韦德已经34了，但他上赛季依旧能贡献场均19+4+4+1的全能数据，并且他早就在各种大场面中证明了自己。
During the playoffs last season, Wade's statistics in all aspects have increased, averaging 21.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game, and his shooting percentage has also risen to 46.9%!
Whether it is Davis or Rose, strong is strong, but strictly speaking, neither has seen a real big scene, and relatively lacks experience on the top stage.
Now, with the arrival of the legendary veteran "Flash" Dwyane Wade, who holds three championship rings, FMVP in 06, and scoring champion in 10 years, it just made up for the last shortcoming of the Bulls, making the Bulls' paper strength in the new season leap to the top of the Eastern Conference.
The strong performance after the start of the season has made the Bulls' chances of winning the championship continue to rise. Compared with the Cavaliers, the two teams are already the top teams in the Eastern Conference.
As the second strong team in the East, the "King of the North" Raptors came to the west today to challenge the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Since the start of the regular season, the Thunder has a record of 6 wins and 2 losses, which is quite impressive. However, the Raptors regrettably lost to the Kings in their last home game. This game is destined to be a fierce battle.
In the end, the Raptors relied on their star, DeRozan, to show off and score 37 points to help the team beat the Thunder 112:102.
In addition to the Pacers, Bulls, Cavaliers, and Raptors, which are recognized as strong teams in the East, there is another new force in the East this season.
That's...the Boston Celtics!
So far in the new season, if you want to pick out a dark polo team from the east and the west, the west is none other than the Thunder, and the east is the first to promote the Celtics, one of the two traditional powerhouses in the NBA.
This summer Durant, Anthony, Wade and other big fish left the team one after another, which turned the trading market upside down, and there was a pool of muddy water everywhere. After the Celtics picked a talented rookie Ingram in the draft, there is no big news now.
As everyone knows, the Celtics are the representatives of making a fortune in the trading market this summer.
The Celtics strengthened through a series of trades. In the new season, Thomas Jr. + CJ McCallum's backcourt double guns were formed. On the front line, there are talented small forwards Ingram and blue-collar veteran Amir Johnson.
Unknowingly, the Celtics have formed a fairly sharp starting lineup, with offense and defense, and defense and defense.
In addition, they have this huge bench of gangsters, such as Jae Crowder, Marcus Smart, Kelly Olynyk, Gerald Green, Terry Rozier, Taylor Zeller...
One of the above players counts as one, and all of them are high-quality puzzles.
From the main force to the rotation, the Celtics can be called strong and strong. No wonder they can suddenly emerge in the new season.
On the 10th, the Celtics ushered in the challenge of the Dallas Mavericks, one of the traditional powerhouses in the West, at home. The starting center Horford took a break in this game, and the situation was not good for the Celtics.
I thought it would be a spark hitting the earth, but unexpectedly the game was completely defeated by the Celtics in only three and a half quarters.
凯尔特人当家领袖以赛亚·托马斯全场出战33分钟，三分球5中3，攻下30分4篮板4助攻，带队100:83轻松决赛。
其余队友均有不错表现，CJ·麦科勒姆18分3助攻、奥利尼克12分4篮板、天才新秀英格拉姆10分8篮板2助攻、阿米尔·约翰逊7分7篮板。
After this battle, the Celtics' record came to 5 wins and 4 losses, entering the top six in the Eastern Conference.
With the addition of the Celtics, a new force, there are a total of five new and old forces in the East this year.
It seems that the media still underestimated the competitiveness of the East a bit too much.
In addition to these teams, there are also several games worthy of attention in the West.
The first is the strong dialogue where the Houston Mosaic challenged the San Antonio Spurs away.
The game was extremely stalemate, and the point difference was not stretched beyond 5 points. From the beginning to the end, there were more than 10 alternate leads.
At the decisive point, with one and a half minutes left in the game, Mosaic led by 4 points, and then Harden went to the basket and caused veteran Ginobili to foul, but he actually missed two free throws.
But then, a more dramatic scene happened, and the Spurs did not seize the opportunity. After Leonard missed the buzzer, the game ended, and the Spurs lost 99:101 to Mosaic at home.
今晚哈登出战41分钟拿到24分15助攻12篮板的大号三双，职业生涯第10次砍下三双。
In addition, after this campaign, Harden assisted in double figures in 5 consecutive games, and he became the first mosaic player to do this after Slippe Floyd.
In 1990 of the last century, when Floyd played for the Mosaic team, he had 5 assists in double figures.
For the Mosaic team, in addition to Harden, Melon was also fully fired, scoring 35 points and 38 rebounds efficiently in 7 minutes of playing, 5 of which came from Harden's direct assists.
The mosaic double guns shined, making the Spurs nervous all night at home, and finally witnessed the home team's bitter defeat!
Among the role players, Birdman Anderson scored 20 points and 8 rebounds, Capela scored 12 points and 10 rebounds, Ronden contributed 15 points off the bench, and Decker scored 10 points and 7 rebounds.
On the Spurs side, the robot Leonard scored 34 points and 7 rebounds, and his performance was impeccable.Love is in a mediocre state today, with only 14 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.
The main reason why the Spurs lost is that the performance of the internal and external dual-core combination is not as good as the mosaic double guns tonight.
It is worth mentioning that Ginobili scored 8 points and 3 assists tonight, passing the 13000-point mark in his career, setting a career milestone.
But considering that the Spurs lost this time, it should be changed and called the mileage "sad".
Cosmos Yong also has a game today, and the Detroit Pistons challenged at home.
Pistons star Andre Drummond, Wang Zelin and Lillard also made their debut in the 2012 draft. After four years of rookie contract, he has fulfilled his talent, and now he has grown into the third active center after Wang Zelin and Cousins.
It is worthy of the 5-year 1.3 million maximum salary contract offered by the Pistons.
The Western Conference finals in the past two years have made everyone see the biggest shortcoming of the Warriors, that is, the lack of internal strength.
Therefore, even if the Pistons know that they have a high probability of not being able to beat the Warriors, they probably put the last chance on Drummond, expecting him to play the demeanor of the third active center.
As a well-known rebounding idiot in active service, if Drummond hadn't met Wang Zelin, he might have already won the rebounding champion.
It's a pity that it is exactly the old saying, if you are born Yu, you will be born bright.
Under the light of Wang Zelin, Drummond can only condescend to second place in the rebounding list in a single season for several consecutive years.
However, Drummond's opponent tonight is the relatively weak Golden State Warriors at the center position, and he exploded the Warriors' penalty area as expected.
In the first 42 minutes of the game, he played almost the entire game, made 19 of 9 shots and 6 of 4 free throws. He scored 22 points and grabbed 25 rebounds!
Emmm, there are more rebounds than points. There should be no active player except Drummond, a rebounding idiot.
At the same time, Drummond's 25 rebounds in a single game also set a record for the most rebounds in a single game since the beginning of the season.
The previous record holder was Wang Zelin's 22 rebounds in a single game against the Kings!
Drummond played enough tonight, but the rest of the Pistons were blown away by the Warriors.
勇士方面，库里24分3助攻6篮板、汤普森20分2篮板10助攻、杜兰特28分10篮板10助攻、格林16分10篮板7助攻……
The Big Four soared into 16 three-pointers, scored 88 points in the whole game, and blasted their opponents to pieces!
In the end, the Warriors beat the Pistons 126:95 at home, and the team's record came to 8 wins and 1 loss, ranking second in the Western Conference, second only to the Trail Blazers who started the season with 9 wins and 0 losses!
