Vol 2 Chapter 575: 2014 ~ 2015 season Pelicans name ...

Parsons didn't make a three-pointer, Jones took offensive rebounds and used the speed difference to hit Jokic.
Jokic's weight is indeed his biggest problem now, making him look bulky on the defensive end.
However, in the frontcourt, Jokic continued to show his ability to respond, passing to Ding Weidi, who cut into the bottom corner, who also scored the first two points in his layup.
Although there is a problem in defense, his offensive role is also very obvious, and he can become the axis of attack on the court.
Tang Tian also scored a few of them at this time.
Jokic was able to score 8 points, and the 2 points deducted were his performance on the defensive end, and it was difficult to improve before losing weight.
Aminu's performance was 7 points. His effect on power forward is obviously better than that of small forward. It seems that he will win the competition with Teletović.
Ding Weidi's performance is 5 points, he is still a long way from maturity.
Johnson's performance was 3 points, his defense was poor, and the attack did not find his own position, leaving little hope.
This is also reasonable.
Tang Tian chose them based on their performance in history, but it is unknown whether they can play that kind of performance after changing teams.
After all, the players are people, not the characters designed by the parameters in the game. You will definitely be able to play when you choose them.
In the end, the Pelicans defeated the Rockets 86-78 at home.
Whiteside had 15 points, 11 rebounds and 5 blocks. Gordon had 13 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists. Ariza had 12 points and 4 rebounds. Cole had 9 points and 6 assists. Jokic had 8 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.
After the game, Whiteside was very excited in the locker room.
He went in and out between the starter and the bench last season. This offseason spent a whole summer training in the hard brother training camp, and he made significant progress.
From the performance of the first game, he has a high probability of locking the Pelicans' starting center in the new season.
After a two-day break, the Pelicans flew to the East and the Heat played a second preseason game.
The Heat experienced big changes in the summer and their strength plummeted. Wade didn't play this time either.
On the Pelicans' side, Tang Tian played against Davis, and they played the Heat 35-15 in the first quarter.
The home fans are quite annoyed. From the championship team to Yuyu, they only used one offseason.
But in addition to the Heat's own weakness, the Pelicans' starting performance is also impressive.
Tang Tian's breakthrough seems to have improved a lot, and Davis' low-post offense has also been made. Even Hollodi and Ariza played a very relaxed feeling.
In the end, when Tang Tian and Davis played only one quarter, the Pelicans won the Heat 92-78, and won two consecutive preseason games.
Tang Tian had 10 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists. Davis scored 6 points and 4 rebounds.
Whiteside continued his eye-catching play, contributing 18 points, 10 rebounds and 4 blocks, Hollodi 15 points and 5 assists, Aminu 8 points and 3 rebounds, Jokic 7 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists.
After these two games, Williams basically has a mind on the rotation of the team.
In addition to steadily locking the starting side of Whiteside, Ariza, who retrieved the shooting bag, also locked the starting position.
From the bench, Jokic entered the rotation by performance, and Aminu also successfully squeezed Taylortovich.
Time flies, and by the end of October, the NBA preseason game ended after nearly a month.
The Pelicans' final record was 6 wins and 1 loss.
The preseason victory is irrelevant, but in the case of being played by the bench most of the time, this result can be harvested, which greatly improves the team's self-confidence.
In these 7 games, the coaching team focused on a few players.
Whiteside averaged 27.7 minutes, 14.6 points, 10.2 rebounds and 3.6 blocks. He shot 60% from the field and averaged only 2.6 fouls per game.
Ariza averaged 25.6 minutes per game, 11.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.5 steals. His three-point field goal percentage reached 42%. He became the answer to the Pelicans' third position.
Aminu averaged 20.2 minutes per game, 6.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.1 steals. His shooting percentage reached 47%. His performance as a substitute for the fourth position was good.
Teletović averaged 13.3 minutes, 5.3 points and 2.1 rebounds per game, and shot 41% from the three-point range. Although his performance was not good, the three-pointer still allowed him a place in the Pelicans.
Jokic averaged 18.8 minutes, 8.5 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and shot 53%. In addition to defensive issues, he looks talented.
Ding Weidi averaged 15.6 minutes, 4.5 points, 2.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and shot 39% from the field. He needs to work harder to get into the rotation.
Taylor Johnson averaged 10.8 minutes, 2.1 points, and shot 29% from the field. He is likely to be cut.
There was only 5 days between the end of the preseason and the official start of the regular season. During this time, the Pelicans have successively completed layoffs.
Taylor Johnson, Patrick Young, and Jeff Vichy were cut in succession.
With this wave of layoffs, the Pelicans' roster for the new season has also come out.
Starting: Holloday, Tang Tian, ​​Ariza, Davis, Whiteside;
Substitute: Cole, Gordon, Morrow, Aminu, Jokic;
Bench: Dinwiddie, Sheved, Tsiping, Evans, Taylortovich;
"Guys, let's do it!"
In the last training session before the start of the regular season, Ci Shiping greeted the team members and shouted.
As the team's locker room leader, he shouted, and the team members responded in unison.
Now this Pelican has a strong player, a talented rookie, a veteran shock field, they really have to work hard in the new season!
Their opponent in the season opener is the Trail Blazers.
The Trail Blazers won 50 games last season but failed to make the playoffs. Luck is a bit bad.
But this can't hide their strength. Lillard Aldridge's twins, coupled with Batum, Matthews, Robin Lopez and other outstanding role players.
Like the Pelicans, they are one of the teams most eager to prove themselves this season.
However, unlike the Pelicans, they are one of the teams favored by ESPN, and they rank sixth in the strength prediction list.
So in this game, is the Blazers proving that they are worthy of this strength, or the Pelicans face ESPN, attracting much attention from the outside world.
"We're not just going to make the playoffs in the new season. Our goal is the championship."
When interviewed before the game, the Trail Blazers' core Lillard was so arrogant.
Lillard's fighting spirit and fierceness are rare in the league, and it is also an important reason for others' high spirits.
You know, he has not been selected as an All-Star, but this past summer he has signed a 10-year 100 million super endorsement contract with Adidas.
He also became Adidas's top card, joining the NBA's lineup of signature sneakers.
This game was not only the encounter of two powerful teams, but also the popular collision of Tang Tian and Lillard.
Before the game begins ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The players of both teams make final preparations in the locker room.
"Don, my 2K ability value has gone up again!"
Whiteside shouted at Tang Tian with excitement.
Tang Tian took the phone and looked at it. Whiteside's ability value has been changed from 59 to 65.
This guy has been thinking about 2K to reduce his ability value last season. After finishing the preseason this season, he finally got his wish.
"It will get higher and higher."
Tang Tian reached out and touched his head.
From the preseason perspective, Whiteside is in excellent form. If he has been playing the starting lineup, this value will definitely continue to rise.
ps: Is the book out of stock? I recommend a new book by the author of "Golden Fishing Ground" with a full metal eggshell. The name is very European.
