Chapter 16, Appearance Ceremony.

The time to rest flies by in a flash.

On November 29, 2008, the Thunder welcomed the Memphis Grizzlies at Ford Center.

The Grizzlies' previous record was 4-12, and the Thunder's previous record was 1-16, and the Grizzlies, while slightly better than the Thunder, were not much better.

Last year's record saw them pick a snooper, and this year they selected OJ Mayo from the University of Southern California.

The two teams can be called a pair of difficult brothers.

In the previous 16 games, he averaged 18 points, 3.1 assists and 3.2 rebounds per game, ranking second on the rookie list, only behind Derrick Rose, and now his overall strength is a little stronger than Wei Shao.

However, Li Forest knows that this is also a typical rookie, that is, the peak, and then more and more degenerate.

Now the Grizzlies' star is Rudy Gay, and that's only because he's been here for a long time, but his stats don't show much better than OJ Mayo.

Rudy Gay has always regarded himself as the boss, and OJ Mayo expressed his disbelief as soon as he came, so the two fought inwardly.

Li Forest is also very speechless about the grizzly bear, a bad team, what is there to fight for the boss.

In his opinion, OJ Mayo, a drug-addicted fighting man, and Rudy Gay, a muscular data man, are both half-catty players.

Guy is very talented, with amazing bounces, great athleticism, easy scoring in offensive and defensive transitions, and what is known as an "unblockable jumper".

But the problem is that Guy can't translate these talents into actual combat efficiency.

He's a single scorer, easily slips into blind dribble singles and doesn't like physical contact, so he doesn't have many opportunities to hit the basket.

O.J. Mayo is a two-way guard with accurate outside jumpers, who is good at shooting backwards through cover, and has good ball control, but lacks the explosiveness to break through steadily.

He can play as a guest point guard, but he doesn't defend well, the shooting guard is too short, the defense guard is too slow, and he can defend the tall point guard.

These two are very physically gifted, with good ball quotient, but slightly lower emotional intelligence.

And they all love mid-range jumpers, and they are not particularly accurate, and they all rely on the number of shots to pile up.

Li Linlin looked at Makgasol's honest figure and thought, this is your future boss, what is there to fight ......for.

Neither the Grizzlies' star nor the future team boss is Lee Forest's focus.

Because he's not a starter, he's just a small bench that has just entered the Thunder's rotation.

Li Forest looked at his opponent, Kyle Lowry, one of the future Raptors' "trash brothers" and not yet called "Little Steel Cannon".

That's the ...... his counterpart.

Kyle Lowry, a 2006 first-round pick, has been in the league for two seasons, starting last season and squeezing Mike Conley out of the starting spot this season.

Lowry, who is off the bench, is averaging 7.6 points. His technique is characterized by power, and his breakthrough is very .......

Looking at the strong muscles of the "little steel cannon", Li Linlin touched his chest, not knowing if he could bear it.

"System, find out Kyle Lowry's level."

"B+, get promoted to A at any time."

Fortunately, Lowry in the early stage was not so strong, if it was Lowry during the Raptors, then there was really no need to play, and he would definitely be blown into scum.

Lowry has always presented himself as a fierce pit bull, and although he is short, he is never afraid of physical confrontation. He is an aggressive pit bull point guard who shoots accurately, is good at making fouls and passes steadily.

At this time, Kyle Lowry also looked at Li Linlin, who was warming up, and it happened that Li Linlin also looked back at him, and the eyes of the two collided across the court.

Li Linlin looked at this little steel cannon, and now he is still quite cute, no wonder he will go to the Raptors in the future...... People live up to their name.

However, every time the Raptors met James, they turned back into cute dragons.

Lowry and DeRozan's "backcourt double gun" combination has become a "garbage brothers" combination in the playoffs.

Therefore, Lowry has not been stable at the level of S-level stars for a long time in ......the later stage, and his ability and talent are still a little worse than the other "garbage brothers".

Of course, there is more than one backup guard for the Memphis Grizzlies, and there is another, Greg Buckner, a veteran who entered the league as a second-round pick in 98, averaging 2.2 points per game.

…… At this time, domestic.

Li Linlin's rise was very sudden, and this game was a bad team battle, so the domestic TV media did not broadcast it live, and Sina, which has the right to broadcast live online, did not broadcast this game.

It's still just a text live broadcast with Tiger Pounce.

Back to the pitch......

This is the first time that Li Forest has participated in the appearance ceremony as an official player of the Thunder team.

So Li Linlin was very nervous, but this time he played with a lot less worries and worries, and now he is a guaranteed contract player.

Although the Thunder team has a poor record, the attendance rate of the arena is still okay, and the seats are full.

The high attendance at the Thunder's home stadium also has something to do with the fact that Ohirahoma City doesn't have any other teams in the big four leagues, and the NBA Thunder games are one of the few entertainment pastimes in the city.

The game is about to start, and in the sexy dance of the Thunder cheerleaders accompanied by the excitement of the DJs, the Thunder players appear one after another......

Li Forest was placed in third place, and the boss was usually the last to appear...... This final spot is naturally reserved for Durant.

The first one, Lefre.

Second, Atkinson.

The third place, Li Linlin, "Let's welcome the handsome guy from China - Li Linlin. ”

The DJ of the Thunder team shouted very highly, and the management specifically asked him to introduce the newcomers.

The crowd at the stadium seemed to know about the newcomer and burst into applause.

Li Forest took a deep breath, set off from the door of the locker room, and ran towards the center of the field.

Along the way, the lights flickered.

Cheers and applause joined in.

"Hello, NBA! I'm coming. ”

Li Forest said in his heart while running, today is the first appearance ceremony he participated in after crossing back, and his dream is about to set sail from here.

When you get to the center of the field, you put your hands behind your back, close your eyes, and enjoy the cheers of the audience.

……

After a while, the appearance ceremony was over, and Li Forest sat back on the bench.

Wei Shao's injury has recovered, so it is logical to be transferred to the starter.

The starting lineup for the Thunder on the court is, Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Jeff Green, Damion Wilkins, Chris Wilcox.

The starting lineup on the court for the Grizzlies is, O.J. Mayo, Rudy Gay, Marc Gasol, Mike Conley, Darrell Arthur.

On the bench, Nick Collison sat to the right of Forest Lee, Earl Watson was on the left, and Le Fell out of the rotation and was therefore sitting in the far corner.

To be honest, Watson looks very distinctive, and as soon as he gets close to Li Linlin's side, he perfectly sets off Li Linlin's handsome appearance......

Therefore, Li Linlin also likes to stay with Watson.

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

……

"System, probe Rudy Guy's comprehensive evaluation."

The "A+" system is a very simple answer.

Sure enough, as the current boss of the Grizzlies, he still has some ability, but he is still not as good as our S-level "Schoolbag Du." ”

"Hey, system, then why is Westbrook also A+, and the data of the two will be so far apart."

"The comprehensive evaluation attribute mainly tests the physical talent ability, Westbrook is still a rookie, and he is still in the adaptation period, and after the adaptation period, the proper S-class, surpassing Rudy Guy's data is a matter of minutes."

"Damn, I've been hit again." Proper S-Class ......
