Bishop of the Devil

Already entering the regular season regular season, the teams that were suspended in the preseason start, naturally returning to the team right now.

O'Neill took part in the team's physical examination a few days ago, and the result is that the weight is still fairly good. Although the tonnage is heavier, Richard is still acceptable.

It would be better if he did not eat Hess. With O'Neill's body, if he had eaten Hess throughout the offseason, it is estimated that the tonnage would have to move closer to four or five hundred pounds.

Now it seems that O'Neill still has some self-control ability.

"Shaq, did you see the performance of Greg's kid?" Richard sat in his office and looked at O'Neal with a smile.

"Huh? Lee, what do you mean? Wouldn't it be that the kid is powerful and let me play the bench?" O'Neill's eyes widened.

If Richard really let him play the bench, he is estimated to be crazy on the spot, directly strangle Richard.

What level of player is O'Neill? It is recognized as the most dominant insider in history, even if it is "old age decay", face is still necessary.

O'Neal can't afford to lose this man for a new melon egg.

"Shaq, I don't mean that. I mean what do you think of Greg?" Richard asked with a smile.

This made O'Neill relax a lot, just not to play the substitute. At least now he certainly can't accept the appearance as a substitute, which is really shameful.

"This kid is very strong, Li, you picked up the treasure this time. Although he is unlikely to reach the level of my peak period, he is better than the magic kid."

O'Neill doesn't look down on Howard, this is a well-known thing...

For Oden, O'Neill also watched his two preseason games, the performance is still quite outstanding.

But to reach the level of his peak period, O'Neill felt no drama.

"You will be the starter of our pirates, but we also need to train Greg, this season we may take a lot of turns off you, you have to be mentally prepared."

O'Neal nodded, he was still waiting for the team to take a break...

"Although it is a holiday, I must still play on some important occasions, and you have to guarantee my playing time, such as the opener tomorrow night, such as the Christmas War..." O'Neill put forward his own conditions.

Richard nodded, and O'Neill's request was not excessive.

...

At eight o'clock the next night, in the home team's locker room, Richard looked at the lineup of players in front of him, and there was an impulse to roar.

"Guys, tonight is the first step of our regular season journey!"

"This season, I have many goals. For example, at least four players must enter the All-Star lineup. For example, if we want to break the team's record of winning history, it is best to break the league's season winning record!"

"Of course, the biggest goal must be to complete the defending!"

"These goals require everyone to work together!"

"Shaq, Dakota, Granger, Roy, and Paul. The five of you are starting tonight. I want to see a match that completely hangs the opponent!" Richard yelled.

The generals nodded solemnly.

Their lineup last season was already winning the championship, and this season the lineup has been improved, and winning the championship is definitely not their only goal.

At half past eight, players from both sides started to enter.

O'Neill is definitely the eldest brother of this team. His current popularity is still very high. After seeing O'Neill entering the scene, pirate fans at the scene offered their cheers.

Fans were even more excited when the new FMVP Milicic played.

In the opinion of fans, Milicic is really a good boy. The contract he signed with the Pirates was quite cheap, which prompted the Pirates to have more salary space to adjust the lineup.

This season's salary for the Pirates was 20 million for an O'Neill, less than 10 million for Milicic, and then the other players were all signed rookie contracts. Absolutely.

After Richard played, the atmosphere of the scene reached its climax.

This is Richard's fourth season in running the Pirates. In the first three seasons, Richard has already given the Pirates fans a huge surprise, and the team has won the championship for three years.

And this season, fans firmly believe that Richard must have prepared a bigger surprise for them.

...

"Beep beep!" The referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game.

Fans on the court opened their eyes wide and the new season officially began.

O'Neal stepped onto the midfield line and jumped the ball with Howard, but was won by the young Howard. O'Neal was a bit uncomfortable...

In the Magic offensive round, Jamal Nielsen advanced the ball.

Nelson is a short, strong type of pick-and-roll point guard with good offensive firepower, but lacks stability, which is commonly known as the nerve knife.

When the feeling is smooth, God blocks the killing god. If it doesn't feel good, cut yourself three times before talking.

Paul doesn't really like to play against such a strong point guard. He prefers to play against that thin offensive point guard.

Fortunately, Nielsen is not the core of the magic system, their core is Tekoglu in the frontcourt.

Richard has a relatively good understanding of the magic tactical system. When he played against the Magic last season, Richard insisted on implementing the strategy of strictly guarding Tekoglu.

By strangling Tekoglu, Howard's offensive power will drop by at least one-third!

...

Nelson passed the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball to Tekoglu. Milicic immediately used his taller and bigger body to block Tekoglu's pass.

In Richard's defensive strategy, Tekoglu can vote, but cannot pass!

Once Turkoglu found a chance to pass the ball to Howard, it would not be easy.

Milicic completely blocked the route inside Tekoglu's pass. In desperation, Tekoglu passed the ball back to the outside of Rashad Lewis.

Lewis took the ball and hit it, and the outside shot directly hit a three-pointer.

This is the Magic's conventional tactical system. The striker Tekoglu scores the ball. The primary goal is Howard. If Howard's ball route is blocked, the ball will be given to the outside Lewis.

...

In the offensive round of the Pirates, Paul hung the ball to O'Neal under the basket, thought he could easily get an assist.

But he underestimated Howard's strength.

In any case, Howard is also the top three center in the league in bottoming out. O'Neal's peak period is no problem, but now at this point, it is obviously not so easy to want to score on Howard's head.

After receiving the ball, O'Neal prepared to turn back to play World of Warcraft, but the attack was not effective, and the rebound was also snatched by Howard.

...

It's the Magic's offensive round again, this time the Magic's outside is not so lucky. Nielsen hits the iron and the rebound was snatched by Milicic.

After the unsuccessful first offensive round, Paul will not go to the ball to O'Neal.

The first round of hanging ball to O'Neill, can be seen as respect for O'Neill's old predecessors, let him play the first offensive round.

In the past three seasons, the Pirates have never focused on the offensive line. Paul shouted Milicic and started to play a normal pick-and-roll rhythm.

...

In a few minutes, relying on the strong offensive firepower of the lineup, the Pirates gradually took the lead.

Richard's starting lineup, the offensive firepower is really too terrifying, except for O'Neill, all the others are able to make good shots.

Especially Roy, the yellow Mamba, after the rookie season, his offensive strength revealed this season is not weaker than the league's first-line point guard.

Paul's offensive level is also the top of the point guards, that is, only a few two or three point guards, such as Nash, may be comparable to Paul on the offensive end.

Needless to say, Granger's offensive firepower is what the level of the Pickles in the Pacers is now. What is the current Granger's level? There is a gap compared with the top small forwards in the league like Pierce or James, but the gap is not big. It may be a gap of 100 to 90.

Milicic wins in all-around, the offensive firepower is not particularly strong, but it is far better than most of the league's power forwards.

These four offensive starters are powerful, plus two of them have strong organizational skills. Even if the Pirates' starting center is still Valejo, the Magic is not an opponent of the Pirates.

...

After playing for seven minutes in the first quarter, the score has gradually been pulled away.

O'Neill is difficult to explode in front of Howard, but Howard wants to comfortably play a second offense in front of O'Neill, certainly not so easy.

O'Neill's tonnage goes to that card, destined Howard can't wreak havoc on the basket.

Magic coach Stan Van Gundy, his brow furrowed.

They magically introduced Lewis this season in order to compete for the championship, and if they want to compete for the championship, how can they pass the pirates?

The Pirates are already the strongest team in the East. For all teams that want to compete for the Eastern Conference, the first thing they need to do is to kill the Pirates, and then they have a chance to rush out of the East.

However, the current situation on the court made Van Gundy realize that, with the Magic's current lineup and normal matchups, it is still not an opponent of the Pirates.

"Doodle!" Dafan Gandi called for a timeout, and after giving a command to the players on the court, a confident smile appeared on his face again.

After the timeout, the players from both sides returned to the field. O'Neal was not in the basket yet. Immediately, point guard Nelson sent the free throw line.

Needless to say, this is how Van Gundy started using shark-cutting tactics against the Pirates.

His idea is simple, that is, let Richard replace O'Neal, so that Howard can play the role he should play in the basket, taking advantage of O'Neal's time to grab points as much as possible.

O'Neal on the court severely restricted Howard's offensive play. Although O'Neill was off the court, there was still an Oden in the Pirates, but Van Gundy did not think that Oden's new melon egg would cause Warcraft in a head-to-head matchup. trouble.

I have to say that Van Gundy has a good abacus. In fact, if Richard is in the position of Van Gundy, I am afraid that he will come up with the same countermeasures.~www.readwn.com~ Before Richard coached the pioneers, facing O'Neill used this strategy.

...

O'Neal was sent to the free throw line, and even the fans on the court can see that the Magic is going to use the shark-cutting tactic.

Speaking of O'Neill's most annoying tactic, it is undoubtedly the shark-cutting tactic. Every time his opponent uses the shark-cutting tactic, he is extremely anxious.

But this time, O'Neill smiled rarely, as if this free throw was his long-awaited thing.

Richard also smiled and looked at Dafan Gandi. Tonight Dafan Gandi's shark-cutting tactics may be defeated.

...

"Uh!"

O'Neal hit the first free throw directly, but the second free throw was not so lucky, out of the basket.

After making two free throws, Van Gundy was still satisfied. This is O'Neill's regular level.

If he continues to use the shark-cutting tactics, Van Gundy estimates that Richard may replace O'Neal after another two minutes at most.

Magic's offensive round, and Turkoglu scored again, this time the team's guard Bogans in the hands of the latter, the latter hit an iron, the rebound was taken by O'Neal in a good position.

O'Neal just got the rebound. Howard next to him immediately hugged O'Neill and continued to send O'Neal to the free throw line.

"Boy, your magic may become a joke tonight." O'Neill looked at Howard playfully.

Howard shook his head without saying anything. He didn't want to have any conflict with Old O'Neal on the field.

It's totally unsuccessful.

If you win, say that Howard bullied the veteran. If you lose, it is even more terrible. Even a veteran can't beat it.

Moreover, Howard is not the kind of player who particularly likes to be rough on the court.
