The Trail Blazers, like the Lakers, are warming up at this time.
They listened to the cheers of the audience and watched the Chinese fans' support for Shen Huan, and they felt a little funny.
"How are you? Are you scared?" Allen Crabbe poked Damian Lillard next to him.
"Haha." Damian Lillard smiled and said nothing, but the contempt in his eyes was obvious.
"Don't be careless." center Plumlee warned. "Kobe and Iverson will be very difficult to guard tonight. You need to respond on the offensive end... Just wear down the physical strength of Kobe and Iverson." , we win!”
"Um."
Damian Lillard agreed with this point, "Don't worry, I'm going to play 48 minutes tonight! I must beat Kobe and Iverson in the first game! Such two old men collapsed in the first game After that, the energy and energy will be insufficient in the back.”
Damian Lillard has also become a new star in the past few years. He is no longer the young man who was beaten to the point of collapse and almost cried when he first entered the league.
We have reached the playoffs, of course everyone wants to win the championship, and Damian Lillard wants it too!
"The two of them are famous for refusing to admit defeat." Plumlee reminded again, "You still have to be more cautious."
"Old Pu, you are a little too cautious." Allen Crabbe smiled and patted his shoulder, "Damian and I are only a few years older than one of them, maybe more than ten years. Could it be that We are in such good condition and have such a strong body, but we can't beat them? We fought hard and will be full of energy tomorrow. What about them? How many days will it take to recover?"
Another genius who had been silent for a long time, McCrum, also nodded and said: "Allen is right! Even if they have more fighting spirit, time has abandoned them, and now it is our world! We must take advantage of this opportunity." When they come off the court, try to widen the gap and don't let up! So in this game, like Damian, I will play the whole game!"
Seeing that the two core members of the team had such attitudes, Plumlee stopped talking.
In fact, he doesn't really believe that the Lakers can win.
In February, Kobe and Iverson actually showed fatigue, so they rested for more than half a month to recuperate.
But how can a 40-year-old and a 37-year-old body recover so quickly and adapt to such high-intensity competition
It is very likely that after their anger is vented, they will never be able to reach their previous state, and will only get worse and worse. They will not be able to perform in the playoffs and will eventually be eliminated.
This is also an important reason why they were so excited and happy after they drew the Lakers!
At the beginning of the game, Plumlee decided to use his body to bully the two veterans.
He spoke because head coach Terry Stotts asked him to be more steady and warned his teammates not to be careless.
But looking at the Lakers' five starting players, except for Kobe and Iverson, how do the other three look like NBA elites
Especially the addition of an inexplicable Chinese boy. Look at his thin appearance. He was knocked away by a collision, right
The Lakers are really out of their minds!
In such an important first game, instead of seeking stability, you want to make surprise moves
You, a thin young man from China, are not worthy of being a special soldier!
If we don’t win this kind of game, God won’t forgive us!
Today's referee is senior referee Jason Phillips.
At 8:58 pm, he greeted the players from both teams to stand on the court and prepare to kick off.
At the front of the Lakers is Roy Hibbert.
In the back row, Kobe stands in the middle, Shen Huan stands on the right, and Iverson stands on the left.
At the back is Dangino Russell.
The Trail Blazers have Plumlee standing next to Roy Hibbert, Damian Lillard and McCrum in the second row, and Allen Crabbe and Al Aminu in the third row. .
The two on-site commentators from Huaguo, Teacher Su and Teacher Wang, couldn't understand this lineup, so they were bragging about it.
TNT commentators Jeff Van Gundy and Shaquille O'Neal over there also have their own opinions.
"The Lakers' formation looks like they are going to attack from the start! And they actually sent Shen Huan to start, which is beyond most people's expectations!" Van Gundy Jr. said with some surprise: "I thought he would be in the starting lineup. In the second half of the quarter, he came on the field with the substitutes, but he turned out to be the absolute main force!?"
"Haha, I think they are confused this time." O'Neal said, "Obviously, Damian Lillard and McCrum are both good at offense and defense, and they will definitely be able to restrain their offense. If Kobe strikes the iron in this game , Iverson does not have good support, and rookie Dangino Russell is completely unable to shoulder the heavy responsibility, let alone a rookie who has not played a game."
O'Neal himself had the most disdain for Kobe. Naturally, he couldn't speak well of Kobe, and he also didn't like the people Kobe selected.
"This is not necessarily true. If Shen Huan can play to his previous strength, even half of it, he will be a good assistant." Van Gundy Jr. said with a smile, "I have watched his preseason games several times recently. It's really It's very similar to Iverson who just debuted! Even more brave than Iverson."
"Then let's wait and see!" O'Neal did not argue with him, but was ready to slap him in the face with his strength.
The time has arrived at 8:59.
The atmosphere became slightly tense.
The fans at the scene also lowered their voices unconsciously.
The players were even more focused.
The ones responsible for grabbing the ball are naturally Roy Hibbert and Plumlee.
Roy Hibbert is 7 centimeters taller than Plumlee, and his arms appear to be longer.
In addition, the two of them are not very good at jumping, and they are not the kind of kings who compete for the ball, so basically the Lakers will seize the first offensive opportunity, which everyone knows very well.
"You're going to get this ball?" Kobe turned his head and looked at Shen Huan.
"good!"
Shen Huan nodded without any emotion or nervousness.
It was the first time that he used professional basketball skills (historical level) on the court. Shen Huan was actually a little excited, but he hid his emotions well.
Their words are not being transmitted to everyone's ears now, but if they can be played back later, the voice of their words is actually received by the microphone.
Seeing Shen Huan being so calm, Kobe nodded slightly.
He was also worried that Shen Huan was too excited or too nervous.
Now it seems that he really has a big heart.
"Roy, number two!"
Kobe shouted, raising his voice.
Roy Hibbert didn't look back, but he certainly heard it.
As referee Phillips blew the whistle and threw the ball up, Roy Hibbert and Plumlee jumped up quickly.
The Blazers trust Plumlee's ability to compete for the ball.
So they immediately chose to return to defense.
Sure enough, there was a "pop" and Roy Hibbert got the ball, but he slapped the ball to the front right.
At this time, McCrum, who was a little to the right, was running back, and suddenly he saw the ball bounce to his side from the corner of his eye.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand to fish it out, but heard an exclamation.
"careful!"
This is what Al-Aminu is shouting at the end.
What is he shouting
The moment McCrum's hand touched the basketball, he was still in a daze.
As a result, there was a strong force and the basketball in his hand was snatched away.
Then McCrum saw a man wearing a purple and gold jersey rushing past him like flying.
He wanted to grab this person, but he didn't even touch the shadow.
Lillard ran a little faster than McCrum. He saw clearly that it was the Chinese man running with the ball. Unconsciously, his heart was shaken, and he quickly rushed over the slope.
But his speed was still not fast enough. Shen Huan passed him directly and went straight to Allen Crabbe and Al Aminu under the basket.
"Well done!"
Allen Crabbe rushed forward, using a fake move to commit a foul, as if he wanted to slap Shen Huan directly in the face.
As long as Shen Huan is afraid and stops or slows down, he can move forward to delay Shen Huan's attack or steal the ball from him.
But Shen Huan didn't even blink. The ball moved from left hand to right hand, then spun around Crabbe and passed him in an instant.
The last one left was El Aminu who had not moved.
Seeing that Shen Huan was already jumping into the air, he jumped up without showing any signs of weakness, stretched out his long arms, and wanted to cover up the basketball.
"Peng!"
"boom!"
When the two bodies collided, one body was directly ejected, and the still rising body swung its arm and smashed the basketball into the basket.
"Crack!"
Shen Huan jumped off the basket.
Aminu, who had been knocked outside the baseline next to him, was screaming in pain and couldn't get up at all.
He glanced at Aminu coldly, without any gesture of congratulations. He turned around and walked towards the midfield as if he had just thrown a ball on the empty training field.
At this time, the stadium was completely silent.
People were stunned.
Even the most enthusiastic live DJ had his eyes wide open at this time and couldn't believe what he was seeing.
O'Neal, who was brewing emotions and was about to criticize the Lakers, his eyes were bigger than two bull's eyes.
Damn it!
Is this a newbie
Is this a rookie who has never played in an NBA game
Is this a 17-year-old young man from China!
Isn’t this world too crazy?
Little Van Gundy was also stunned.
He just said that Shen Huan looked like Iverson when he was young. Unexpectedly, Shen Huan's first ball was just like Iverson, killing him line by line.
Moreover, Shen Huan's dunks were so domineering.
It can directly knock El Aminu away! !
Al Aminu is 2.06 meters tall and weighs 196 pounds!
Shen Huan's small body weighs 160 pounds!
With such physical fitness, Nima, only Anthony, James and a few others can achieve this, right
But all of them are NBA superstars!
And it is only through polishing and training year after year that I can finally have such a strong body.
It’s definitely not the first game in the first year with such a strong body!
How did Shen Huan become so strong
The Trail Blazers' performance was even funnier.
They didn't even care about their teammates who were screaming in pain over there, but stood there, you look at me, I look at you.
It seemed that he was confirming whether he was dreaming just now.
What's going on
We clearly agreed that we would give them a blow, but suddenly such a kid showed up and caught us off guard
He passed three people, knocked one person away, and scored a clean one-handed dunk.
The entire attack time does not exceed 5 seconds!
Are we really not dreaming
This... How can there be such a thing in this game
