Chapter 19 Let's see what he can do
The three-day training camp ended in a blink of an eye.
At noon on the [-]th, the Blazers boarded the plane to Las Vegas.
As a member of the Summer League team this time, Su Yang, like the participating players, received an envelope from the staff when he entered the cabin, which contained travel subsidies totaling 360 US dollars for a total of two days.
Perhaps because it was hard to get change, Outlaw and other veterans in the same company suggested playing a game of Bray.
Mike Roberts and other rookies were a little shy and did not agree, but Su Yang joined in directly, learning and playing now.
In just 10 minutes, he lost all his $360 subsidy, and he didn't think he had the skills of Chen Daozai.
By the time Mike Roberts and others joined in, he had figured out the rules and made a huge killing, winning more than 3000 US dollars.
If Monty hadn't forcibly stopped the game, Su Yang would have taken all the game and won most of the players' travel subsidies.
After the plane arrived in Las Vegas, the whole team rushed to the hotel by bus and began to prepare various procedures.
Su Yang received his assistant coach certificate, but Monty still didn't arrange anything related to the game for him, as if he didn't exist.However, he was officially reported to the league by the Blazers and became one of the two coaches in this league.
He was not idle either, not only took out the more than 3000 US dollars he won from playing cards, but also spent some extra money to customize high-end SPA massage services for each player, and studied the lineups of other teams' Summer League by the way, just in case.
On the morning of the [-]th, the team held training as usual.
Su Yang met the official website reporter Casey Hodell again, and asked if there was any news about the previous interview during the chat.Casey told him that the news had been sent to the website, and what he said would cause discussion, but unfortunately, the clicks were very few.
Su Yang was not surprised. After all, every new season, as long as there is a team with some strength, the goal is to enter the playoffs and even compete for the championship. Similar predictions often have to wait until the end of the season to look back to find the fun.
And he said that the Blazers' goal next season is to reach the playoffs, which is really not too much.
Even if you reach the finals within five years, the speed requirement is at best relatively fast.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the first game of the Trail Blazers Summer League officially started, and the opponent was the Celtics.
The game was held in the Cox Arena. There were only more than 2000 seats, but there were more than 500 spectators. Many of them could only stand in the aisle to watch. Deng Dadi.
But within 3 minutes of Oden's debut in the first quarter, he received 3 fouls, only picked up one backcourt rebound, and went off the court without scoring a point. Dee paid no attention to the audience.
At the start of the second quarter, Oden finally passed the pick-and-roll and scored 4 points with consecutive dunks.
However, the embarrassing thing is that Oden hit all the free throws several times, and the number of fouls increased to six.
The twin-tower tactics didn't produce the desired effect. Oden's mid-range shot was too poor, and the Celtics shrank without scruples.
Aldridge is also uncomfortable. Every time he waits for the ball in a high position, the Celtics block his space to go to the bottom line.
Just like that, at the end of the first half, the Blazers trailed the Celtics 30-41.
During the halftime break, Oden took the initiative to express his desire to have more playing time, and Monty readily agreed.
McRoberts took the opportunity to propose that he want to play a high-level support role, but Monty flatly refused.
Su Yang was watching from the side, feeling powerless.
Within 2 minutes of the second half, the Celtics relied on Gerald Green to play strongly and quickly extended the game to 51 to 32. However, Oden led the team and failed to make any response. He also raised the number of personal fouls to eight. Second-rate.
The scene was extremely embarrassing, Oden bit the bullet and continued to play, and finally received his 10th foul.
Restricted by the rules of the game, Oden could only leave the field, and the Blazers changed to Aldridge to lead the team.
Perhaps it was because there was no Oden, and Monty no longer forced to play the twin towers tactics, feeling a little bit giving up.
It was thought that Adelaide quickly led the team to play a wave of 25 to 10, and chased strongly to only 5 points.
The Celtics asked for a timeout, and Monty quickly delivered a passionate speech of encouragement, and also arranged a wave of offensive and defensive priorities.
Unexpectedly, after the game restarted, the Blazers' offense and defense fell into chaos, and their scoring efficiency fell off a cliff.
In the end, the Trail Blazers Xialian lost 18 points in the first game.
The No. 6 pick Oden scored 2 points and [-] rebounds, and the audience booed him friendly when he left the field.
Back in the locker room, Monty finished the game quickly, and the rest of the time was spent encouraging Oden. The referees in NBA games are not so strict. Bargnani also had 10 fouls last year. In short, it was not Oden’s fault. question.
Oden himself believed it, and promised to play a strong performance in the next game so as not to embarrass Monty again.
Head coach McMillan also has the same opinion, telling Oden not to worry, take his time, and tomorrow will be better.
Su Yang was watching from the side, quite speechless.
ESPN and other media reported on Oden's performance and suggested that he be familiar with the rules of the game and not foul so easily.
After a day off, at [-] pm on the [-]th, the Blazers played against the Dallas Mavericks.
The venue was still the Cox Arena, and there were still as many as 2000 spectators who went to see Oden.
The Mavericks don't have a traditional center. The center is Monsabonsu, who is weaker than Oden in terms of shooting weight and strength.
In such a matchup, Oden finally seized the opportunity and scored 6 points, 3 rebounds and 3 blocks in the first half.
Regrettably, after the start of the second half, the Mavericks seemed to discover Oden's shortcomings and fouled resolutely while defending.
As a result, Oden made a terrible free throw and only made 7 of 1 shots. The Blazers were also quickly pulled away from the score.
Faced with such a predicament, Oden became anxious, and the number of fouls soared, quickly reaching 9 times.
Monty gritted his teeth and replaced Oden, and the Blazers finally lost to the Mavericks 68-72.
After the game, ESPN and other media began to report that "Oden's skills are rough and his golf quotient is too low". They also specifically mentioned that Durant scored 32 points against the Warriors, which attracted fans from all walks of life to make trouble on social media. .
Soon, some fans turned to the interview video of Su Yang from the official website of the Blazers, and spread it to Facebook and other platforms. What he said became the material for fans to ridicule, and ESPN also edited a clip to be broadcast across the United States.
Commentators such as Bill Simmons ridiculed word for word, and Su Yang gradually became the target of fans' ridicule.
However, some fans think he is right. The reason for the loss is that the Blazers' tactics are too poor.
The Blazers media department contacted Su Yang, hoping that he would not speak so exaggeratedly in the future, so as not to cause misunderstandings.
Su Yang neither agreed nor refused. He felt that the Blazers lineup was a fact, but it hadn't been fulfilled yet.
That night, Oden issued a statement that he would miss the remainder of the game due to tonsillectomy.
The Trail Blazers officially confirmed it at the first time, and announced that Aldridge was temporarily truce due to ankle problems.
At [-] pm on the [-]th, the Trail Blazers played against the Suns, and ESPN will broadcast live across the United States simultaneously.
Perhaps because of the sudden lack of two main players, the Blazers were defeated and lost 21 points before the end of the third quarter.
Monty was very angry about this, and kept arguing with the referee about the foul problem, so that the referee caught him and whistled a technical foul.
During the pause, the live commentator Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson chatted about what Su Yang said, and the audience burst into laughter.
Su Yang was listening by the side, and he didn't feel embarrassed, but was a little surprised that the development of the matter was beyond imagination.
Suddenly, the referee's whistle sounded again, and the target of the whistle was Monty Williams.
According to the rules, two technical fouls will result in ejection.
Monty was stunned for a while, then turned and walked towards the player tunnel, leaving the Blazers with a dazed look on their faces.
McMillan quickly stood up from the auditorium, waved at Su Yang, and signaled him to take over the coaching duties.
Su Yang hesitated for a moment, looked up at the scoreboard, and then raised his hand at the referee to ask for a timeout.
The referee whistled immediately, and the Blazers naturally surrounded Su Yang, and Mike Roberts jumped up excitedly.
In the ESPN commentary seat, Jeff Van Gundy squinted at Su Yang: "He seems to be more popular than Monty."
Mark Jackson nodded: "We are 21 points behind now, just to see what he can do."
