"Oh, damn it, I didn't get to the arena until half past nine, how did they come so early? Noah, what time did they come? Guy asked.

"They were already here when I got to the arena at 10:10 a.m."

"They're crazy!"

Guy feels like his hard-working image is going to be ruined!

Seeing Guy who was full of "idol baggage", Sun Ce was speechless.

However, since this is the Grizzlies' first "thematic battle" this season, the players have more or less this "idol baggage" and want to show their good side in front of the fans.

On the day of the full filming of the game, Sun Ce felt very awkward, and it should be said that the whole Grizzlies team felt uncomfortable.

And on the other side of the Rockets...... Most people are also uncomfortable, but the Rockets players who have played with Yao Ming for a year or two are used to it.

From 8 a.m. to record the time each player goes to the stadium to train, to the 10 a.m. tactical meeting, to the noon nutritious lunch, this is the morning interview stage.

Sun Ce was very uncomfortable at first with the feeling of being surrounded by lenses even when he went to the toilet camera, but he didn't arrange an interview today, so he filmed the whole process, at most he introduced what he was practicing, Sun Ce slowly felt that this way seemed to be better than usual, because he trained very little today, he practiced 150 hooks, and most of the time he was watching the video of the Rockets' game. It's better than wasting time with additional media requests for interviews after your normal training sessions.

In terms of interviews, Sun Ce hated one thing the most, and the reporter said that he had to pretend to be "this question is a good question, I will answer it after careful consideration."

……

After lunch, press officer Kyle and a director from the imperial court station came to Sun Ce's place.

There is a shooting project, a pre-match meeting between the players of the two teams......

Since this shooting was led by the imperial court sports station, it was very different from the links of American television that Sun Ce usually occasionally recorded.

The imperial court has to have a meeting.

This is very inconsistent with the habits of NBA players, for example, O'Neal didn't take the initiative to talk to Yao Ming for three years because he didn't like Yao Ming for two or three seasons, Yao Ming was a little sullen and introverted, and he didn't take the initiative to talk to O'Neal......

It's not necessarily a good thing, but it's always fun.

Kyle repeatedly advised, "Noah, are you ready to say what you will say when you meet with Anthony and the others?" Remember, you can't open the yellow cavity, otherwise the imperial court sports station can't broadcast ......"

"Am I like the kind of person who would casually open his mouth?"

"Like! You're so sassy, who doesn't know about your love affair in college......"

After Sun Ce entered the NBA, especially after he played, some things that Sun Ce had to help his predecessor take the blame for not enjoying it in college were still exposed.

However, those who have not yet entered the NBA are working hard to enter the NBA, and those who have entered the NBA and have played well, these two stages are exposed, and the effect is completely different.

Like now, no one has mentioned what kind of madness he was in college, as long as he plays well and doesn't do illegal things, there is no problem at all.

And it also gave him the reputation of "the prodigal son" among a certain fan base......

The so-called prodigal son is called the prodigal son after you have succeeded; You didn't make it, who knows if you ever turned back......

As a second-round show, even if you just look at the current performance, it has already exceeded expectations, even if those things are exposed, it will not have any impact on Sun Ce, and fans will automatically filter many things.

Of course, black fans have to be black anyway, even if they use this to attack, it will have no effect on Sun Ce.

"Chris, you're an insult to my personality!" Sun Ce muttered two sentences.

Although the TV station deliberately arranged this so-called "star meeting", which made Sun Ce feel weird, the Grizzlies starters also felt the same.

However, Sun Ce also wants to get to know Anthony.

……

At half past one in the afternoon, Sun Ce and a few teammates, under the guidance of the director, came to the Elvis Memorial Hall next door to the stadium......

When I got to the memorial, the players on the Rockets' side were already visiting the memorial.

The players of the two teams were very "surprised" to meet, and they didn't expect to see each other at this time.

When Anthony saw Sun Ce coming, he showed a ecstatic expression, and then exaggerated and shouted, "OH! China's Oscar Robertson! Brothers! I'm your fan! ”

"I'm a fan of so-and-so......" After Sun Ce entered the NBA, he heard the most false words this sentence.

And he felt that Anthony seemed to be a little too aggressive.

What Chinese big O has shouted out.

But to see the more pompous performances of other people...... Sun Ce found that Anthony's performance traces were already the lightest, and the others were even more fake......

Sun Cedan hurt for a moment, adjusted his emotions...... "OH, I didn't expect to see you here, Merlot, it's amazing, I've watched you play since I was a child......"

Exaggerated greetings, hugs, camera grouping, Sun Ce and Yao Ming's meeting has been filmed enough, Anthony and Sun Ce and several players were divided into one shot to chat, shoot more material.

Sun Ce got to know several former Denver gang players.

Many people are seeing it for the first time.

"Noah, I'll treat you well next time you go to Houston......"

"Thank you......"

Anthony is very interested in making friends with Sun Ce, but Sun Ce only wants to know Anthony's ability evaluation......

Sun Ce looked at Anthony's ability evaluation.

"Carmelo Anthony, Rating S-, Offensive S, Defensive B-, Offensive Rebound A+, Rebounding A-, Three-Point B, Mid-range Shot S-, Layup A+...... Speed A, Power S-...... Shoot S after dribbling, second offense B+......"

Anthony's ability evaluation...... Sun Ce didn't know where to start complaining, Anthony's technical level was full of slots, and to sum it up, it was blind to his physical fitness.

The players of the two teams greeted each other cordially and friendly, and this Rockets team has completely changed from the opening game.

I also met Kevin Martin again...... When Kevin Martin was on the Kings, Sun Ce met him.

But...... Sun Ce turned his head and forgot what Kevin Martin looked like.

Compared to Kenyon Martin, Kevin Martin is obviously stronger, but Kenyon Martin is an impressive player, Kevin Martin...... It's too ordinary, it's too featureless, it's not ugly, it's not ugly, it's not good looking, it's very ordinary, it's so ordinary that it's ignored.

……

……

After taking care of these chores, it was almost time to warm up for the evening game.

Finally, you can put aside the outside distractions and devote yourself to the game!

Today's entrance ceremony is very early, and the game starts at half past five in the afternoon, and it is already in the field before five o'clock.

An ordinary regular season, stunned by the Grizzlies as if it were the New Year, the mayor of Memphis is promoting the city's prospects, this picture, I don't know that I think there is a city council election here.

But it's no wonder that a lot of Chinese fans came to Memphis today, mainly in North America, who gathered here to watch this game, and Chinese in North America, the ability to do business is famous, hoping to attract some Chinese entrepreneurs......

This doesn't have much to do with the players, Sun Ce and others talk about themselves.

Thinking of the start of the live broadcast at half past six in China today...... Sun Ce felt sorry for a wave of fans who wanted to watch the live broadcast.

As a team in the West, the game starts earlier than almost all teams in the Central Division......

After the Grizzlies had Randolph, a powerful All-Star, and Sun Ce, a popular All-Star, even Kobe Bryant and James came here, there were boos.

But Yao Ming came here, and the cheers were quite high.

The large number of Chinese fans is one aspect, and the other reason...... After Yao Ming finished this season, he had the right to jump out of the contract.

Grizzlies fans naturally want to use Sun Ce to attract Yao Ming to join...... Although there is no possibility at all, even if Yao Ming changes teams, he will not consider the Grizzlies, and if he does, the sponsors will not agree, and maybe the league will not agree......

Here in Memphis, Sun Ce's commercial value alone cannot be fully developed......

……

"Imperial Court Sports Station, Imperial Court Sports Station...... This is the Chinese derby between the Rockets and the Grizzlies brought to you by the Imperial Court Sports Desk......"

"Welcome back to ESPN, Grizzlies' home game against the Rockets is about to begin......"

In the opening of the live sports giants of China and the United States, the starters of both teams took the field.

Sun Ce sat on the sidelines, looking at the opponent's starting lineup.

"Brooks, A- (Peak), A+ Offensively, D Defensively; Kevin Martin, A- (Peak), Offensive A+, Defensive C-,, Basically a pure offensive guard combination without any defense......

Anthony, S-Level, Offensive S, Defensive B; Kenyon Martin, C+, D- offensively, B+ defensively; Yao Ming, S-Rank ......

Da Yao's basket defense is one in the league, and he doesn't have a very good ability to expand out, Kenyon Martin doesn't have any offensive ability except for eating cakes, and he can rely on agility on the defensive end to expand out, and he is very compatible with Da Yao on the defensive end, Anthony has no good defensive awareness but good physical fitness, and will not drag his feet......

Overall, the Rockets have little outside defense and are afraid of teams with a lot of pitchers, but they can be very good on both ends of the floor......

Our advantage should be quite big, we start and defend well, sister-in-law Tianke Dayao ......"

Just as Sun Ce was analyzing the Rockets, the game had already begun.

In the opening stage, Sun Ce didn't have this side and actually fell behind!

Anthony's mid-range trio played Guy and Battier as if he were playing...... And the Grizzlies' own side of Randolph has to fall to the low post single!
