Chapter 155: The First Show Meets the Enemy
The Chinese guy who spent two sweet days in Houston is sitting in his apartment in New York at the moment, thinking about the moment Tamara saw him, with a look of surprise and happiness on his face.
Baby, I love you! After kissing the photo of his girlfriend on his phone, Sun Yi focused his attention on the computer screen in front of him.
Miami heat! Ha ha! God has eyes, let me meet you in my NBA debut. The experience of the summer draft still makes the Chinese Tanhua Show unforgettable.
After calling up the list of players of the Heat team from the Internet, Sun Yi found that there were many acquaintances. Wade, who has just played against him in the Olympics, is Mike. Beasley, Mario. Chanmos and Dequien. Cook.
Ha ha! Thinking of the ******** of Moneymos, who was ravaged by himself in this year's NCAA Final Four, the best American college player couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at? Sun, clean up, it's time for us to go to practice. Glenn, who was doing the training log, immediately reminded him when he heard his friend's laughter.
"Okay, right away."
……
Once off the beaten track, the Knicks' vice office is now the center of the team's power. The assistants and clerks who had swaggered past the room were now cautious.
"Wonin, can you find a way to get me this player." D'Antoni pushed a copy of the player profile in his hand to Chapman.
"Tyson. Chandler? Why are you interested in him? The vice president of the Knicks, who is in charge of basketball, asked with some confusion. This blue-collar center with good athleticism shouldn't be the type that the other party likes.
"Man, this big man can effectively solve the dilemma of our lack of interior defense." Tyson. Chandler's '01 star show, although after coming to the Hornets and Chris. Paul's pick-and-roll play was thriving, but last season's career-high double-double of 10 points isn't a big statistic in the league. D'Antoni hadn't paid much attention to the big man before, and he even didn't like it because of the opponent's low interior attacking ability. However, after leading the Knicks to their final preseason game, 'Mustache' suddenly changed his mind. "Boxing Champion" Chandler's excellent defensive awareness and excellent defensive ability are what the current Knicks team lacks the most. If he can get the interior defensive great, he believes that the New York Giants, who are in the midst of a rebuild, have a good chance of returning to the ranks of the playoff teams.
"Mike, we don't have the right chips. You should be clear about this. "Tyson. With Chandler's $11.35 million salary this season, the most suitable trade chip would be Eddie. Curry, it's a pity that no team's general manager would do anything stupid to take over this shit. To this day, Chapman regrets not being able to get rid of the former 'O'Neal of the East' in the summer. Other Wilson with trading value. Chandler, David. Li simply couldn't match the other party's tens of millions of high salaries.
"Can you think of a way?" The mustache asked a little unwillingly.
"I looked at it, Tyson has two years left on his contract, maybe we can sign him in the summer of the following year." Chapman looked helpless and spread his hands, indicating that this was the most likely option at the moment.
"What a!" The Knicks coach made a rare foul slate.
……
On October 28, 2008, the long-awaited NBA 08-09 season finally kicked off after a long offseason.
The three teams with the most favourites to win the championship this year were very 'coincidentally' scheduled on the first match day.
The Cleveland Cavaliers' matchup with defending champion Boston Celtics is undoubtedly the most watched.
James, the little emperor who has gradually grown into the first person in the league, will come to TD North Shore Garden Arena with a group of shrimp soldiers and crabs to challenge the clover giants who have won the most championships in the league.
At the beginning of the game, the two sides entered a brutal hand-to-hand battle, and with James's all-round performance, the Cavaliers led by seven points at 50-43 at the end of the second quarter.
In the second half, the Cavaliers' defense began to leak everywhere as the fitness of veteran center Ilgoskas declined. What made the little emperor most depressed was that Truth Pierce felt hot today. Even if he has defended to the extreme, the opponent can still hit all kinds of difficult shots in front of the home fans.
When Ray. Allen hit two free throws with 4.3 seconds left in the game. The Cavaliers, who are five points behind, are powerless. Unwilling James looked at the opponent's extravagant lineup, and could only shake his head helplessly.
……
The game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Portland Trail Blazers was completely unsuspenseful. Even though Kobe Bryant's hand is not good, the team has a bunch of fierce generals who take turns to wield. Paul. Gasol, Bynum, Ariza, Odom, Famar and even the famous 'softie' Radmanovic scored eight points.
In addition to the 20-point 'Yellow Mamba' Brandon. Roy, who saved some face for the visitors. The biggest surprise for the Trail Blazers was the Spanish outside killer Rudy, who played well in the Olympics. Fernandez. After playing 26 minutes, he scored 16 points extremely efficiently and shot 50 percent from the field.
……
The Chicago Bulls played at home against the Milwaukee Bucks, and it was the game that Sun Yi paid the most attention to.
Look at the friend on TV standing in the United Center arena and the home team's starting point guard. This year's Tanhua Show was full of excitement for a while, and it should have been my territory...... Hate bull management, wait, you're going to pay for it......
Halfway through the fourth quarter, the suspense was lost. The first home game of the new season seems to have made the Bulls' lads particularly excited. The team has six players in double figures, and the Bucks can only rely on star Michael Murphy. Reed struggled to hold on.
In the end, the Bulls defeated their opponents 105-95 and got the new season off to a good start.
This year's top pick shows Derek. Rose played 31 minutes and had a quasi-double-double of 18 points, 4 rebounds, 9 assists and 3 steals. This is a very good report for a rookie who is making his debut in the NBA.
Some of the American media that were upset about the Chicago Bulls' selection of Rose with the top pick fell silent after this game. They didn't give up their views, but waited for a day later's 'battle of the top eyes', and then made plans when they had the results.
Bell bell bell ......!
"Brother Yao, hello! How's your recovery going? Seeing the call from the big brother of the national team, Sun Yi was very happy.
Mr. Snyder's inspection report made Yao Ming's agent team very serious, after all, they are the ones who are going to point to the Rockets center for dinner. After communicating with the Rockets' management and head coach Adelman, the Chinese giant, who was physically and mentally exhausted, decided to follow Snyder's advice to take a break and reformulate their physical training plan.
"Hey! Not to mention, it seems to have shed a layer of skin all over my body in the past two days. "Yao Ming, who has just finished a month's rest, should be doing recovery training under the guidance of a personal trainer these days." By the way, let's talk about tomorrow's game. How's the preparation? Don't be as embarrassed as I was at the beginning. Yao Ming, who was the champion of the 02 year, only had 0 points and 2 rebounds in his NBA debut. It seems that he doesn't mind mentioning the past to his little brother.
"Hey, hey! Brother Yao, don't be funny. Tomorrow's game, you're sitting in front of the TV and voila. ”
"Okay! Listening to your tone, the idea is not small. ”
"Well, at least it can't embarrass you, right?"
"I like to hear this, so let me take a good look at the performance of the core defenders of our national team."

October 31, 9 a.m. Beijing time.
It is an ordinary Friday, neither a statutory holiday nor a small long holiday.
Many enterprises and companies are working normally, but there are no people.
The usual bustling crowd on the street seems to be much thinner.
"Hello viewers and friends, welcome to watch the live broadcast of NBA games on CCTV Sports Channel. The game brought to you today is the New York Knicks played by our player Sun Yi against the Miami Heat......"
*
In the Knicks' locker room, all the players are preparing their game gear.
Sun Yi sat in front of his locker, silently tying the laces on his sneakers. The 'Sun Generation' Nix version customized by Tamron Company for him is mainly composed of blue and white colors. The sides of the shoe continue the Olympic version of the Sun Dragon logo, the biggest difference is that there is a prominent number '8' on the heel except for the blue and white side.
"Hi Hi! Guys! "Richardson focused his team-mates' attention on himself.
Sun Yi believed that he would never be able to say anything impassioned about the battle, because that was not BIGQ's character.
"I bet the Heat **** must be wearing beach shorts to play." Miami is a famous resort city in the United States, especially famous for its beautiful beaches and hot bikini girls.
Ha ha......!
Although Richardson's jokes didn't boost the team's morale, the atmosphere in the dressing room was noticeably lighter.
On the left hand side of Sun Yi's locker is David. Lee, a good-looking white interior player, was holding a pocket watch of some years in his hand, and he was talking about something with his eyes closed. It is said that the pocket watch was given to him by his grandfather.
On the right is the handsome Serbian Milicic, who was a 03-year-old star when he first came to the team, that is, he chatted with his fellow countryman Jarich. It may be D'Antoni's tactical style of play that has given the big man who hates hand-to-hand combat inside hope of proving himself again, and lately, Milicic has been much more cheerful than before, occasionally greeting teammates with a smile.
Shannon. Brown is another living treasure after Richardson, his jokes are not of a high standard, but he always enjoys them. The most silent is Steve. Novak, most of the time, smiles and listens to his teammates, but rarely speaks. Sun Yi has been muttering in his heart whether this teammate is a facial paralysis patient.
When the Knicks were all set, they walked to the tunnel under the leadership of Richardson, the captain of the living treasure, and prepared to be cheered on by the Madison Square Garden.

Ryan. Chuck is an ordinary exchange clerk on Wall Street, and he has been working for 6 years after graduating from college, but he still can't have a house of his own in the world's first city, where every inch of land is valuable. The busy work every day makes him have no time to find the other half of his life's journey. Of course, if the physiological need is particularly strong, Ryan will also drive a car to catch the street girl who is quite pleasing to the eye on the side of the road, and return to his rented house to burn his passion.
Living in a mess makes him have no passion for this real world. Only the 'March Madness' that sweeps the United States every year will make this white man who graduated from Duke University feel the reality of this world. In the 6 years since he graduated from Lane University, he has changed companies in Chinatown 3 times. It's not that he doesn't have enough education, let alone ability, but how many bosses will allow their employees to take a month off because they have to go to the NCAA to watch the NCAA game? Disagree, it doesn't matter. The next day, there will be a freshly baked resignation letter on the boss's desk.
Ryan is an avid NCAA fan, but Madison Garden Plaza, known as the 'Basketball Mecca', is here for the first time. Just to be able to see the crazy performance of that little Chinese alumnus up close again. Of course, he's not sure if the No. 8 for the Blues, who thrived in the NCAA, will get lost in the NBA like many college stars with high hopes.
So, he wanted to come and see for himself.
Madison Garden Plaza today, except for Lane. Outside of Chuck, there are plenty of East faces wearing the Knicks' No. 8 jersey. They are very envious of Houston, who has Yao Ming, and now New York is no longer lonely because we have Sun Yi.
……
Because today is the opening game of the new season for the Knicks, before the players play, the large LED screen over the court broadcasts the elaborate player highlights. Among them, Sun Yi's wonderful play in the face of Wade's defense in the Olympic finals was broadcast repeatedly.
Many New York fans saw this scene and found that this year's Knicks team did not seem to be as miserable as they imagined. At the very least, we have a player who can compete with the youngest Finals MVP in NBA history.
When the Miami Heat players were introduced by the live DJ, the fans in the arena were restrained, and the boos were not exaggerated. After all, the two teams are not mortal enemies. If it's the Bulls or the Celtics, then I'm sorry.
When it was the home team's turn to make their debuts, many fans widened their eyes to see who would be the first and who would be the last. Everybody knows that this means the status of the player in the team.
"Ladies and gentlemen, give your cheers to the first BIG...... Q, ...... Examine...... Dessen! ”
"The second one to come out was David...... Plum! ”
"Next, let's welcome Wilson...... Money...... Dele! ”
"The fourth! Daktronics ...... Rice...... Lisic! ”
"Friends, please use your screams to greet the No. 8 player............ Resolute! (To be continued.) )
