You just need to remember that you must put this first place around your shooting skills.

Remember, you are a scorer.”

Since Larry Bird and Kevin McHale retired one after another, the Celtics have completely declined.

The Celtics unexpectedly joined Dominic Wilkins last season. Under the leadership of Dominic Wilkins, the Celtics won 35 wins last season and entered the playoffs as eighth in the Eastern Conference.

But this season, due to unwilling to give Dominic Wilkins a pension contract, the former superstar chose to retire.

The Celtics have become more and more powerful, and they will definitely not be able to make the playoffs, but last season Dominic Wilkins brought out Rick Fox, the organizational forward. Croatian center Dino Ladia also made a fortune under the guidance of Dominic Wilkins. After the suspension, it signed a large contract with a starting salary of 5.36 million US dollars and a total of 16.12 million US dollars in three years, which will take effect in the 96-97 season.

In the media's opinion, with these two, and point guard David Wesley, who got more playing time after Dominic Wilkins retired, signed Dana Barros, a top NBA player in the NBA's top stats last season. The Celtics are not a bottom player, and there is still a chance to win 30 wins...

However, the Celtics started with 11 games and are currently 2 wins and 9 losses, ranking second to last in the East, only a little better than the 76ers.

Looking at the players opposite, Zhang Hao recalled the information about the Celtics that he learned before the game with Jason Williams.

Zhang Hao has never discovered that Jason Williams has the ability to do this. He investigates opponent information and analyzes opponent players. Jason Williams is very good at these two points.

But because Jason Williams is a blue-collar player and looks stupid, he gives people the impression of being a standard stupid black blue-collar player. After learning more, Zhang Hao discovered that any player who can survive in the NBA for a long time will have his own characteristics.

This teammate's specialty is his ability to analyze opponent's shooting and investigate opponent's data.

"Our team really feels like a hidden dragon and a slump..."

Zhang Hao looked at Dana Barros, who averaged 20 points, 7.5 assists and led the 76ers to win the Tanhua lottery last season. His ability evaluation was 80... It was really good!

Think about the 76ers at the beginning of this season, Starkhouse threw 19 times per game, with a shooting percentage of less than 40%, and averaging 19.5 points per game with 19 shots... I was envious and jealous!

It was obvious that the Celtics were playing badly, fired the coach Chris Ford, who led the team to the playoffs four times in the past five seasons, and helped the team's logistics department M-L-Kyle to the head coach's position, which was clearly trying to find a culprit.

Although Zhang Hao remembers that the Celtics' record this season is not that bad, it seems that the Celtics are just playing badly to compete for the No. 1 pick to sign Bo Duncan.

The Cardinals admitted that their plan was to compete for Duncan.

At 7 p.m. on November 24, the Nets' away game against the Celtics began.

The game has entered the offensive mode from the beginning. Zhang Hao has been targeted more recently. Fortunately, the Celtics have poor defense, not as good as the Jazz's defense, passing and cutting, giving him a chance to pass the ball. When Rick Fox's pursuit and he received the ball, he could pass the ball when the other Celtics hit him.

The biggest benefit was Kenny Anderson who received his return pass and PJ Brown who cut into the basket, as well as Edwards and Vaughan Fleming who came on as the bench.

When a non-ball power forward scored 7 assists in 25 minutes in three quarters, it means that the team's offense has taken off!

After the first three quarters, with Kenny Anderson's season high of 31 points, Edwards scored 18 points, PJ Brown scored 16 points, and Almond Gilliam scored 14 points, the Nets led the Celtics 97-91 in the third quarter.

In such a game, Dana Barros, a big shot that impressed Zhang Hao, played 22 minutes in the third quarter, scored 8 of 15 shots and scored 20 points... It was indeed a good data to win.

However, in the fourth quarter, Zhang Hao, who only scored 4 points in the first three quarters, has a chance!

The Celtics' outside feel has declined, Jason Williams and Almond Gilliam protected the rebound, Zhang Hao counterattacked, and Chiles made a long pass...

When the Celtics started drilling into the inside with their heads in a tight head, Zhang Hao seized the opportunity to send two blocks in half a quarter. The Celtics, which did not have a strong breakthrough player, did a good job of protecting the frame.

In half a quarter, Zhang Hao scored 14 points, plus 7 points in the positional battle, the Nets scored 21-8 in the half quarter, expanding their lead to 19 points in one sentence!

In the end, Zhang Hao had excellent assist and turnover ratios with 21 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal, 3 blocks, 2 turnovers, Kenny Anderson scored 35 points, 6 assists, and Chiles scored 5 points and 10 assists, the Nets defeated the Celtics 135-121 with 135-121.

With 6 wins and 5 losses, the Nets have maintained at least 50% of the winning rate!

...

The morning after playing against the Celtics, Zhang Hao followed the team to the West. The last game of four consecutive away games will be played on the 26th, with the opponent being the Los Angeles Lakers.

After the game against the Celtics last night, Zhang Hao did not choose to review the game, which was too unreference. The opponent's head coach may not have emphasized defense at all, and he had the feeling of playing casually. It can be seen from the fact that the Celtics players on the court played blindly after the outside shooting in the fourth quarter. Such a game is too unreviewable.

When I arrived at the hotel in Inglewood Town, this was Zhang Hao's second time staying in this hotel. The last time I participated in the McDonald's High School Student All-Star Dunk Contest.

After putting down his luggage at the hotel, Zhang Hao came to the apartment where he had lived for three years with the gift he had left from La Village.

Looking at this familiar apartment, Zhang Hao felt very moved. If he had to say where the dream began, it should be this place.

This 6-story building carries most of the memories of Zhang Hao’s memories of this era after coming to the United States.

"Aix!"

An excited shout entered Zhang Hao's ears. Zhang Hao put his neck down and saw a beautiful girl rushing towards him.

Quickly put the things in your hands on the ground, and then come up and hug each other tightly.

After hugging, the two looked at each other...

Zhang Hao could feel the other party’s thoughts, but he chose not to understand it now.

He picked up several bags on the floor, took out a beautifully packaged bag and handed it to April Clark: "April, this is the skirt I bought for you when I went to New York last time. I remember you said you wanted a skirt like this before."

April Clark shrugged his nose unconsciously, happily took the gift, walked upstairs, and couldn't wait to open it.

It is naturally happy to meet again after a long time, but everything after meeting is very normal, and everyone is too familiar with this environment.

Pierce's mother cooked a table of dishes to welcome Zhang Hao.

At the dinner table, April Clark and Pierce's mother kept talking, but Zhang Hao still listened as usual.

April Clark talked about the difference in college life, and she refused to chase her.

Pierce's mother was just a show-off, and Pierce became one of the two most popular freshmen in the Big 12 League, the other was Chauncey Billups of the University of Colorado.

In the afternoon, Zhang Hao and April Clark were wandering on the familiar streets. Zhang Hao bought some desserts for April Clark and some small accessories that were less than $100. The expensive store, April Clark, didn't go in at all, just looked outside the window, then pulled Zhang Hao and left.

In the evening, after the two had dinner, Zhang Hao sent April Clark back to the apartment.

"Aix, go up and rest for a while before leaving."

"No, I still have to go back and discuss tomorrow's game with my teammates."

April Clark could only say goodbye to Zhang Hao helplessly.

Watching Zhang Hao take a taxi and leave, April Clark stamped his feet after the tail of the car disappeared: "The competition is known every day."

As he was chanting, April Clark couldn't help laughing again.

Looking at your right hand... Little sister, you've been miserable...

On the other side, in the taxi, Zhang Hao leaned on the back of the chair, feeling complicated. Just now, he almost agreed to go up and rest for a while... He could see that it might not be a problem for a while if he went up.

It is not a big deal to not return to the team tonight. He could see that the rules that must return to the team on the eve of the away game did not apply to him.

But...the remaining life span is 443 days...

"Epley is a good girl. I don't know if I'm going to be burping that day, please don't delay people..."

...

Playing against the Celtics first, then playing against the Lakers, and away games. If it were 10 years ago, it would be a nightmare for all teams.

But in the past decade, almost every team has had such a road trip.

This is a very popular away combination in the mid-1980s.

The Nets' two consecutive away games this time were such a away combination.

On the evening of November 26, Zhang Hao and his teammates finished preparing for the game and entered the stadium of the Great Western Forum Arena.

The Los Angeles Lakers are one of the two major teams in the NBA.

In Zhang Hao's memory of this era, he had longed for joining the Lakers after college countless times.

But the trajectory of life is always very different from the presets.

On the Nets, as long as they play in the playoff level, they put themselves in a lower position to prepare and work hard and actively.

They knew that it was not easy to play against the Lakers, but at 8 pm, after the game started, the difficulty of the game was still far beyond their imagination!

The Lakers play them on the other side of the team feels like they meet the Celtics, and they are all playing their lives!

The gap in strength was originally big. The Lakers had 30 wins and 3 losses in the West, while the Nets had 6 wins and 5 losses in the East, and the game was quickly lost.

Divac played an All-Star performance, Cebaros chiseled to the basket like crazy, Zhang Hao had good franchise protection ability, but encountered an All-Star powerful forward like Cebaros...

Before the game, Lakers coach Del Harris mobilized the players very excitedly before the game: "They just defeated the Celtics, we can't lose to them, don't underestimate this team, we must do our best to defeat them, prove that we are stronger than the Celtics!"

This reason is inexplicable, but it can indeed arouse the fighting spirit of Lakers players. Jordan's previous NBA was the main theme of the yellow and green battle. In the past 49 seasons, the Lakers and the Celtics have won 27 of the championships, more than half of the total number of NBA championships.

Even though both teams have declined in the past few years, Lakers players will still get bored when it comes to competing with the Celtics.

Identity and belief, Lakers players have a lot of emotions in these aspects, just like Lakers fans always have extra confidence.

During the game's timeout and inter-journey break, Del Harris was also constantly mobilizing Cebaros, who played well tonight.

"Cedric, you are our strongest star, just like those superstars, teach those talented rookies a lesson, the high school student opposite is the best rookie this year..."

At the beginning, he had 10 wins and 3 losses, and his personal performance was 24 points and 7 rebounds per game. Cebaros had a stronger confidence than before. He heard the saying "Go to play like a superstar" and became even more excited.

The Nets work hard, but they can't resist the obvious gap in strength. The opponent's players are particularly excited, and the opponent has the strong forward line they fear the most.

With Ceballos' 34 points and 10 rebounds, Divacs scored 12 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, Eddie Jones scored 17 points, and Van Exel scored 13 points and 6 assists, although Jason Williams scored 8 points and 16 rebounds, Kenny Anderson scored 23 points and 7 assists, Zhang Hao scored 15 points on the offensive end... The Nets are still at a disadvantage in the whole game.

95 to 108, the Nets lost away, and their record turned into 6 wins and 6 losses, with another 50% winning rate.

After playing against the Lakers, the Nets will get three days off. The 13th game of this month is also the last game in November. The 30th game will be played at home on the 30th, playing the Bulls...
To be continued...
