Guard With a Knife

~: One hundred and forty-one: [Regular seas

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye came the media public day. 【】

In the past period of time, Doug still stayed in the arena every day to train hard, but no one dared to say those "parallel imports" and other remarks.

Because he really proved his presence in the paint zone, he is already becoming the most capable player in this arena.

Regarding his free throw line support and breakthrough tactical status, no players complained or jealous.

Because they feel that Doug's breakthrough ability can't make a big deal, at best, it's a big center who has been cumbersome and slow. When he meets a defender with a better footsteps, he is gone. After all, he can't even handle the crotch dribble. To go back and forth is to change direction in front of the body and turn back, which can only be turned from the left.

Therefore, Dug has not been bad or bad these days.

On the day of Media Day, the Miami Heat swarmed over a hundred journalists for the first time, and a large number of Asian faces entered the arena. The influx of reporters made the team managers both busy and happy: no wonder the NBA is rushing to Chinese players, such an influence is really amazing.

The Heat took advantage of the trend to hold a simple signing conference for Doug.

At the press conference, Doug maintained a very good manner, although many local reporters in Miami made some extremely sharp questions, and some reporters even stood up and asked face to face: "Do you think you are worthy of the No. 8 pick." ?"

"Time will tell you the answer."

Doug smiled and calmly.

This is his method of answering sharp questions. He doesn't want to have tit-for-tat arguments with reporters. It seems to him meaningless. The best way to deal with it is to hand it over to time.

Such Duge makes the reporters below really unpleasant, so in the report they sent back, although they still questioned Duge's personal ability and Miami's choice. But most of them will add one sentence: He is a very good person, very decent.

However, such comments are basically just a comforting effect. For basketball players, doing their own professionalism is the most important thing.

The older generation of superstars in the NBA rarely get along well, and even the **** of basketball has his unwelcome places. But he is still able to gain everyone's respect because of his impeccable professionalism.

In contrast, reporters from China are much warmer. Many of them even ask Doug whether he eats well in Miami and whether he can adapt to the climate here... these topics in life.

After the media open day, the preseason also followed.

The Heat completed 8 preseason games in 14 days.

Because the team ban does not cover the preseason, so these eight games Michael Beasley and Sean Marion have played, and even Michael Beasley played almost every game, he fully demonstrated his offense Talent, but also exposed his deficiencies on the defensive end.

Doug has maintained a playing time of about 12 minutes in these eight games.

In terms of his contribution to the game, he played fairly well. But from the data point of view, it is a bit ugly, averaging 1.5 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 0.8 assists per game.

This allowed the media, which had already overwhelmingly questioned Doug, to take advantage of the wind.

"So, this is the answer that time tells us? Even Joel Anthony's numbers are better than him."

"The No. 8 show was a disaster. He flushed all of Pat Riley's reputation into the toilet at once."

"Perhaps, we should buy out his contract immediately. This is the best way to stop loss."

"..."

Miami's media is almost a one-sided attack: spend a million dollars plus next year's first-round draft picks in exchange for such a thing?

Heat fans also feel that they have been greatly deceived, and even angry hackers have hacked the Heat's official website.

But in fact, except for the messy Miami media.

Some people still gave a pertinent evaluation, such as the poisonous Bill Simmons, although he showed off his skills on draft night. But after watching the game, he affirmed: "Snoopy's defensive efficiency is the highest among Miami's four centers. Moreover, his ability to control rebounds is underestimated. He is willing to selflessly block and cover for his teammates. , Pick-and-roll. He did a lot of work that was invisible to the data, and even a lot of his work was meaningless. Because there was no team player around him. Remember my words, Miami has nothing but Snoopy A team player!"

Bill Simmons's remarks did not get the approval of Heat fans, who believed that the basketball expert was deliberately gaining attention.

But in fact, the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Lakers, San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Mavericks and other strong teams, these teams with team players, are very happy to take over this ‘parallel import’. The general manager of Dallas in the west even called Pat Riley directly: If you can't withstand the pressure of public opinion, we are willing to initiate a transaction at any time. Pat Riley's answer was of course a direct refusal.

At the same time, Oran Multimedia broke out breaking news. A senior manager of the Magic uniform group made it clear in an interview that they almost got Snoopy. If it weren’t for Miami to trade to the 8th pick through Milwaukee, the Magic would use Phoenix’s 10th pick to select this one. MOP winner from NCAA.

As soon as the news came out, Oran Multimedia was fortunate. Fortunately, the Miami Heat helped us escape the disaster, otherwise the Orlando fans should cry.

Miami is the sound of angina.

At the same time, the Magic have arrived in Miami, which is less than four hundred kilometers away from Orlando. They will officially start their 2008-2009 season tomorrow night~lightnovelpub.net~ The Magic, which played in the Eastern Conference semifinals last year, again this summer. Reinforced, they are ready to fight the Boston Celtics to the death.

As for Miami, they didn't care at all.

Before they arrived, Miami officials announced that Sean Marion and Michael Beasley had been suspended for violation of the team's rules.

This makes the only suspense of this game was also crushed by one foot.

And another news that broke the hearts of Heat fans is that Snoopy appeared on Miley Cyrus's concert in Miami.
