The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 97 You Will Be an All-Star in the Future

In the future, DeAndre Jordan will win two rebounds and two defenses for one team. He is the player with the highest achievement among the three big centers of the Wizards.

Because of this, Wang Xiao would subconsciously give little Jordan relatively more opportunities to perform in normal games.

From being traded to the Wizards until now, Jordan has averaged about 25 minutes per game, and averaged 8 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks per game. Although such data cannot make him a much-anticipated star, but He is definitely eligible for the All-Star Rookie Challenge.

As a first-year rookie last year, because he didn't have enough playing time, Jordan's statistics were very average and he was not selected for the All-Star Rookie Challenge. Being selected this year can be regarded as his dream come true.

For this reason, Jordan has been excited for several days, and he can often laugh out loud during daily training.

"Hey, DeAndre, aren't you exaggerating? Isn't that just being selected for the All-Star Rookie Challenge? It's like being an All-Star starter."

Finally, unable to bear Jordan's neurotic smile, Harden couldn't help complaining.

The relationship between Jordan and Harden in the team is very good. On the one hand, both of them are substitute players. On the other hand, when Harden is on the court, he often needs Jordan to assist him in pick-and-rolls to complete the offense.

Although Curry's offense often calls for pick-and-rolls, in most cases, Curry will choose to open the gap for outside three-pointers after the pick-and-roll.

Harden's three-point ability is also very good, but after the pick-and-roll, he prefers to rush inside to create damage.

After helping Harden pick and roll, Jordan can often follow up to the basket and receive Harden's breakthrough and score.

Jordan himself is a center with rough skills and lack of offensive ability. This kind of simple and rough catch and dunk is naturally his favorite thing.

"You don't understand." Little Jordan shook his head and said with a smile: "I am very satisfied to be selected into the rookie challenge. People like me are different from you and Stephen. You are all future stars with unlimited potential. I will definitely become an All-Star player in the future, and if I am already in the second grade, if I cannot participate in the Rookie Challenge, I am afraid that my entire career will miss the All-Star Weekend."

Harden didn't know how to respond.

Indeed, there are more than 300 professional players in the entire NBA, and only a few dozen players can be selected as All-Stars every year.

Not everyone has the opportunity to be selected as an All-Star, just like not all players can win the O'Brien Cup, which symbolizes the highest honor in the NBA.

As for Curry and Harden, obviously there is no need to worry about this issue.

Naturally, Curry needless to say, he averaged 27 points per game in the first season of his career, which is almost comparable to Jordan.

Although Harden is a substitute in the team, his light is not covered by Curry at all.

So far, Harden has played 32 minutes per game, contributing 18.4 points and 8.2 assists. He is not only the assist king in the team, but also the highest among all first-year rookies, and his 18.4 points per game is the highest among all rookies. It is also second only to Curry's 27 points and Tyreke Evans' 18.8 points selected by the Thunder, ranking third.

Many sports commentators are full of praise for Harden's performance, thinking that if it weren't for the presence of a more perverted Curry on the Wizards, Harden would definitely be elected the best rookie of the year.

Basically, as long as the current level is maintained and a little bit of growth and improvement, the future Harden must be a frequent visitor to the All-Star.

After hesitating for a moment, Harden stepped forward and patted Jordan on the shoulder.

"Dude, come on, I think you can become an All-Star in the future, and you have such potential..."

Wang Xiao, who was standing on the sidelines with his hands on his hips, did not look at Harden and Jordan Jr., but he heard their conversation clearly.

Looking at little Jordan, Wang Xiao couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

I am afraid that the current Jordan will never have imagined that he will indeed be selected as an All-Star in the future, and he also has the honor of two rebounding champions and two defensive first teams.

However, if Jordan wants to get the same honor as in another time and space, it is impossible to do it in the Wizards.

The tactical style of the Wizards determines that the center cannot have good data.

Most of the time, the center of the Wizards has to take on the heavy responsibility of defense and help his teammates to assist in the defense. In the rapid offensive and defensive transition, he does not have much time and opportunity to get stuck and compete for rebounds.

Today's Jordan, although he was reused in advance because of Wang Xiao's attention, but the system of the Wizards is doomed that Jordan cannot make great achievements in the paint.

The second-round pick Jordan signed a 2+1 contract with the Clippers. This year is the second year of his contract, which means that in 2012, his contract will expire.

Wang Xiao doesn't know how Jordan will plan his career, and whether he will renew his contract with the Wizards after his rookie contract expires, but no matter what choice he makes, Wang Xiao will support it.

Of course, it is still too early to consider these issues. One and a half years is not long, but it is not short. People still have to start with the problems in front of them.

The head coach of the All-Star Game can be regarded as one of the easiest jobs. You don't need to arrange tactics, and you don't need to analyze the opponent's game video. It's enough to perform on the field and meet the expectations of every fan.

For Wang Xiao, this is a weekend of relaxation and leisure.

Since February 10th, the Wizards have no match schedule. Players have vacations, some go on vacation, some rest at home, and those players who have games during the All-Star Weekend went with Wang Xiao Dallas, Texas, where the 2010 All-Star Weekend was held.

For many Huaxia fans, the only parts of the All-Star Weekend are the Rookie Challenge, the Skills Competition, the Three-Point Competition, the Slam Dunk Contest and the All-Star Game.

But in fact, the All-Star Weekend has many links besides these games.

On February 12, the NBA will officially hold a fan carnival, and many stars will sign autographs for fans who support him.

On February 13th, while the carnival signature event continues, there will also be a caring action, which is to let NBA stars go to local orphanages and other places to interact with young fans. In the evening, there will be an NBA All-Star Celebrity Game , Some film and television stars and singers will be invited to participate in the basketball game.

When the All-Star Celebrity Game is over, it will be the appetizer of the All-Star Weekend called the Rookie Challenge.

February 14th is for the Slam Dunk Contest, Shooting Star Contest, Skills Challenge and Three-Point Contest. And on February 15th is the real highlight - the All-Star East-West matchup.
