But after the two finished chatting, Sun Hao changed his thinking.

During his previous trip to China, he had already felt the enthusiasm of domestic fans.

So it must be impossible to hide it, and how to make Nowitzki happily accept this fact is what he has to do.

Well, Sun Hao decided to strike first!

"Dirk, it's a long journey from Dallas to Guangzhou, so I downloaded the little movie and we'll watch it together on the plane."

Sun Hao was full of enthusiasm, and Nowitzki was a little embarrassed.

His teammates were all on the plane, so it would have been open to him.

"We're in the last row."

Sun Hao continued.

Nowitzki nodded.

The girlfriend he just made opened the door to a new world, and he still likes these new things.

When they arrived on the plane, Sun Hao and Nowitzki found the back row.

After the plane took off, Sun Hao turned on the computer, had a headset with Nowitzki, and then began to play a "little movie".

Not long after the movie began, Nowitzki was stunned.

Because what Sun Hao showed him was not the same as he imagined.

This is a Chinese costume magic TV series.

"What is this?"

"It's beautiful, you can take a look first."

Nowitzki was a little speechless, but Sun Hao was gracious, and he still came down to watch patiently.

With Sun Hao explaining the synopsis of the story and watching at the same time, he slowly immersed himself in it.

The title of this episode is "Treasure Raiders Cave".

Well...... "Journey to the West".

Sun Hao chose the most classic 86 version, and it was translated into English.

Soon, Nowitzki saw the Silver Horn King, as well as the purple gold red gourd and the sentence "Do you dare to agree if I call you".

He was stunned, but immediately began to laugh.

This is not the same as what Sun Hao explained to him before!

He also knew Sun Hao's purpose for letting him watch this TV series.

But in the end, the Silver Horn King turned back into a boy and followed Taishang Laojun back to the fairy world.

Sun Hao actually didn't lie to him completely, the Silver Horn King was indeed a "fairy".

"I think after reading this, I can say that trash talk better."

Nowitzki is Nowitzki, and instead of being angry, he made fun of himself.

Historically, Nowitzki finally learned about his particular nickname through TX Sports.

He was also not angry, and imitated that sentence in front of the camera.

Now that Sun Hao has such a good relationship with him, he won't care anymore.

Sun Hao smiled and patted Nowitzki's shoulder.

He thinks it's great to be teammates with Nowitzki.

If he could, he would like the two of them to play together for the rest of their careers.

……

The day before the Mavericks' arrival in Guangzhou for the China game, officials arranged a fan meeting at a local mall.

As a result, the surrounding area of the mall was soon impassable.

After winning the championship last year, the Mavericks' popularity in China has reached a kind of blowout.

Like Maddie and the others who had come to China before, Nowitzki was shocked by the scene in front of him.

The enthusiasm of Chinese fans is really unique in the world.

Moreover, he also saw the familiar big-headed KT board held by many people in the crowd.

The Silver Horn King.

He couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.

People with different personalities have completely different moods when they look at half a glass of water in a cup, only or still.

Nowitzki's idea when he saw these KT boards was that Sun Hao's nickname for him as the Silver Horn King had indeed earned him a lot of popularity.

When he arrived in the mall, when a fan came to him with a KT board to sign his autograph, he smiled and signed on it, and even imitated the movements of the silver horn king.

This surprised the fans and gave the fans who were packed on every floor a whole new perspective on Nowitzki.

Nowitzki is really down to earth!

Sun Hao was also very happy watching from the sidelines, it seems that his previous "strike first" was really right.

"Sun Hao."

Here Sun Hao was thinking about it, when he heard a slightly familiar voice.

When I looked up, I was still the familiar pretty woman.

Don't say it, Sun Yue's mother is really good at dressing up.

Next to her stood Sun Yue, the boy from his own family.

To be precise, it should also be called a man now.

Compared with two years ago, Sun Yue looks much more mature.

He should be 18 years old this year and an adult.

But the same thing is that he still looks like he is standing by his mother's side as before.

Well, it's still a mommy boy.

"I have a reluctant request."

His mother is still quite polite, which Sun Hao was very impressed by two years ago.

Sun Hao nodded and motioned for her.

"I want you to help me train my son."

Sun Hao was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

First Wanda, then Sun Yue's mother, this is really when he is a free trainer!

However, Sun Hao still nodded.

The reason is simple, there are too few good defenders in China, and even fewer defenders can partner with him.

Now Hu Weidong has not completely aged yet, and when Hu Weidong retreats, he can only let Li Nan's striker swing to fight.

And in fact, whether it is Hu Weidong or Li Nan, it is not the best backcourt to partner with him.

What he needs is that kind of defensive 3-and-D, like the Mavericks' Bale.

Sun Yue's defense is incomparable to other Chinese players.

As for his three points, Sun Hao, from his own experience, this thing is completely dependent on correct guidance and practice.

Sun Yue is not a big center, and the possibility of practicing it is much higher than what he can't.

Sun Yue's mother was overjoyed and pulled Sun Yue to thank him.

This scene is really Chinese.

However, Sun Hao didn't seem to be particularly happy, and said thank you a little reluctantly.

It can be seen that this guy is much more difficult to tune than Durant.

But this made Sun Hao very interested.

Femdom bear kids or something, he's always wanted to try.

……

After the fan meeting, Sun Hao met with Yi Jianlian.

Although the China game is only a preseason game, it can be regarded as Yi Jianlian's first NBA game.

They haven't seen each other since they separated from the "Evolution House", and Sun Hao doesn't know how Yi Jianlian is doing with the Bulls.

"How does it feel to be in Chicago?"

Ordering a Cantonese afternoon tea, the two locals began to chat.

"It's good, the coach and team-mates are very good, and Klaus talked to me alone."

"What are you talking about?"

"Tell me not to have psychological pressure, the team will train me well, let me play with peace of mind, and so on."

Hearing what Yi Jianlian said, Sun Hao ate a piece of pastry, and then nodded.

In a sense, what happened before Sun Hao and the Bulls can be regarded as paving the way for Yi Jianlian.

"Did the coach tell you how long you'll be playing tonight?"

"No, but it should be a lot of time, and there are no people on the team."

Yi Jianlian's next words made Sun Hao stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.

The implication of this sentence is that none of the Bulls' interior players have competed against him.

But it's not surprising.

The interior line of the Bulls in this period of history can only be described as bleak.

Chandler is still playing off the bench, and the inside card is Eddie Curry, the "little shark."

But the reality is worse than history, because of the butterfly effect brought by Sun Hao, Curry went to the Hawks.

The inside line of the Bulls is even more empty.

It's no wonder that Yi Jianlian said so.

"So you're going to start tomorrow?"

Yi Jianlian nodded.

After Sun Hao saw it, he smiled and patted Yi Jianlian's shoulder.

Historically, Fagan and the Bucks have had a lot of unpleasant fallouts, and one of them is a starting commitment.

But now, Yi Jianlian doesn't have to worry about starting at all, because his talent is very high in the Bulls.

This made Sun Hao look forward to Yi Jianlian's play in the evening.

……

The next night, the Guangzhou Stadium was full.

This stadium, which can accommodate more than 50 million people, was built for the "Ninth National Games", and all the temporary seats that can be added for this Chinese competition have been added.

There were 10,000 people sitting in the stadium, and the picture looked at it, and it was described in a very vivid idiom.

Bustling.

Although the number of people is not as good as the NBA's home court, the atmosphere is definitely not bad.

When the players on both sides came to the court from the locker room, the bursting cheers on the scene surprised them all.

At this moment, they have the feeling that Chinese fans are the most enthusiastic fans in the world.

The scene began to warm up, Zhang Weiping and Su Qun one by one, interviewed Sun Hao and Yi Jianlian on both sides.

In this Chinese match, the derby between the two is the focus of fans' attention.

Zhang Weiping is an old fritter, and when he interviewed Sun Hao, he was asking more about the Mavericks and constantly whetting the appetite of fans.

It wasn't until the end that he asked about Yi Jianlian.

"What do you think the UAE can do tonight?"

"15+10, I expect a lot from him."

Sun Hao said with a smile.

Zhang Weiping laughed when he heard it, Sun Hao's answer didn't need his cooperation at all.

On the other hand, Yi Jianlian was asked a similar question by Su Qun.

But because he was asked about himself, he was very low-key.

"5+5, I'm going to do more on the defensive end."

Su Qun couldn't stop nodding after listening.

The newcomers say they need to defend well, and that's what the manager likes to hear.

However, sharp-eyed fans also saw a familiar figure on the Bulls' side, in addition to Yi Jianlian.

Scottie Pippen.

The Trail Blazers are now in disarray, and Pippen is 38 years old.

He declined invitations from championship contenders such as the Lakers and Mavericks this past summer, opting to return to Chicago and return to his roots.

This wave of operations is really normal, and he, who has already followed Jordan with 6 championship rings, really doesn't need to lower his value to mix another one.

However, this also shows that after playing this season, he will basically choose to retire.

Before the start of the game, Pippen also pulled Yi Jianlian and said something, and Yi Jianlian kept nodding.

It can be seen that he likes Yi Jianlian a lot.

Normally, there will be no opening ceremony in preseason games, but the first China game is to let fans feel the atmosphere of the NBA.

Except for the floor, which was flown in from the United States and temporarily assembled, all other ceremonies were carried out according to the regular season process.

The first game is the home court of the Bulls.

After the introduction of the visiting team, the opening music "Sirius", which is most familiar to fans, began to sound.

The music gave goosebumps to the table, and the scene quickly went into a boil.

Yi Jianlian also puffed out his mouth when he came out, and beat his chest hard with his hand.

The Bulls are one of the most glorious teams in NBA history, and it's incredibly exciting to be able to play for a team like that.

He was greeted by a sea of cheers from the scene.

It's China again, Guangzhou again, and NBA debut, and Yi Jianlian has received no less attention than Sun Hao tonight.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups of both teams were also released.

On the Mavericks' side, Sun Hao, Bale, Finley, Nowitzki, Dampier.

Although it was only a preseason game, the Mavericks started to the fullest.

In the stands, David Stern, who had followed the two teams to China, had a smile on his face.

There is no need to pretend to this, he instructed the two teams, and this time the Chinese game is to be really played.

On the Bulls' side, Francis, Kendall Gill, Jalen Rose, Yi Jianlian, Tyson Chandler.

Some fans may forget that the Houston team sent Francis to the Bulls in order to get the No. 1 pick.

But now Francis is the Bulls boss.

And Jalen Rose has always been a quasi-All-Star player, and he can still contribute 18+5+4 data per game last season.

In addition, the bench seat is still sitting Jamal Crawford, who has begun to play, as well as Pippen and others.

The Bulls' roster isn't as bad as last season's record suggests.

In addition, the team was replaced by the well-known Scott Skels in the summer.

They clearly have something to do with it in the new season.

It's not a one-sided game as many people think.

……

A whistle blew on the sidelines, and Dampier flicked the ball back into the Mavericks half, and the game officially began.

Sun Hao held the ball to the front court, beckoned Dampier to block and dismantle and misplaced against Chandler.

The Mavericks won the Spurs in a single-ons playoff last season, and Johnson is confident in this system.

In this past training camp, he put this tactic in the team ahead of the pick-and-roll and bombardment.

Sun Hao hit Chandler in a misplaced position, and made a three-point shot after continuous shaking...... Hit!

After the [shooting talent] was improved, the Bulls gave him this opportunity to play a small and a big one, and there was a high probability that he was giving away points.

The atmosphere of the scene was also instantaneous.

At the World Championships in Shanghai, fans in Shanghai witnessed Sun Hao's scenes day by day.

Now it's the turn of the fans in Guangzhou!

And because Sun Hao is from Guangdong, their emotions are even more burning than the Shanghai fans at the beginning.

When they returned to the defensive end, the Mavericks went straight to a 3-2 defense.

The biggest difference between Johnson and Nelson Sr. is that he is a more defensive coach.

This opening joint defense has already said his attitude.

And the Bulls' scoring points are basically on the outside, and this defense can be said to be very targeted.

Francis tried to break through but didn't have a chance, and Rose was also targeted by Bell.

At this moment, Yi Jianlian, who said before the game that he would do a good job in defense, shook off Nowitzki with a very smart air cut.

Although he played in the United States earlier than in history, Yi Jianlian, who has just entered the NBA, still looks thin.

However, being thin has the advantage of being thin, and the offensive end is more flexible.

For example, this empty cut, Nowitzki did not catch up after reacting.

Francis's pass was in place, and Yi Jianlian, who received the ball, kicked a spring and rose into the air.
