The teams in the same district as the Tigers are the University of Alabama Trail Blazers, University of Houston Cougars, University of Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles, University of Central Florida Cavaliers, Texas Saas El Paso University Shakhtars, University of Tulsa Golden Hurricanes, Marshall University Thunderers, Tulane University Green Waves, East Carolina University Buccaneers, Oklahoma State University Tausha Campus, and Rice University Owls.

Among these eleven teams, in terms of popularity and the stars cultivated by the team, can they be compared with the University of Memphis? And when the University of Memphis did not recruit Ding Moan and Ross, it was already one of the top ten universities in the United States, cultivating the "penny" Hardaway who was in the league for a while!

On January 1st, the day of China's Lantern Festival, the NCAA regular season kicked off! The Tigers' first opponent was the University of Alabama Trail Blazers, and Calipari also paid attention to this opponent who could play a few tricks with the Tigers in the CUSA area, telling all the Tigers players that in the first game of 2008, they would take it down first!

"Xiao An, come back early after today's game, let's have the Lantern Festival!" Aunt Zhang gave Ding Mo'an a bowl of rice balls and advised.

Ding Mo'an put the edited text message on his phone, pressed the send button, and nodded to indicate that he knew.

At this time, on the night of the Lantern Festival on the other side of the ocean, Lao Ding's mobile phone rang with a text message, and Lao Ding picked it up and looked: Dad, I wish you and your mother a happy Lantern Festival. My son is going to play a game today, and he can't come back for the holidays, so take care of his body! My son knows that his reputation has been smeared by the three kings, so you and your mother don't argue with others, I will make a name for myself on the other side of the ocean, and I will return to them ten times the humiliation I suffered today!

Lao Ding's eyes moistened as he read it, and the strength in Ding Mo'an's words made him feel distressed! However, as a father, he still supports his son in his own way!

"It will be the top of the mountain, and you can see the mountains at a glance!" Ding Mo'an muttered Lao Ding's reply, his heart warmed, and the encouragement of his family made him look forward to tonight's game more and more, this is his first battle to play famous!

And tonight's game between the Tigers and the University of Alabama Trail Blazers has also attracted a lot of attention because the Tigers have Rose, the No. 1 high school student in the United States, on the team.

At six o'clock in the evening, the FedEx Arena in Memphis was already crowded with many spectators, and as a scout for the Grizzlies, Johansen was also very dedicated to hiding in the audience to watch the players of the two teams warming up on the court.

It's been an extremely difficult season for the Grizzlies, despite having Paul on the team. Gasol is a super insider, but since the start of the game, he only has a poor record of 7 wins and 22 losses, and such a record will definitely not make the playoffs in the fiercely competitive West.

There are so few options on the table for Grizzlies management right now. This year's team is destined to be ruined, but there is still Paul in the team who is at the peak of his career. Gasol, the team is destined to be inseparable from Paul. Gasol.

So a new option has emerged that will be Paul. Gasol traded, and the team went into a rebuild. It is for this reason that Grizzlies management is prepared with both hands.

If you can persuade Paul. Gasol accepts that this season is bad, then the team can keep the core of the team, and can also select a talented rookie in the draft to see next season.

If not, the only way to do this is to send Paul. Gasol traded, acquired some draft picks and talented players, and went into a rebuild. Johansen came today to look at Rose from the Tigers.

This basketball star, who has made a name for himself since childhood, has attracted attention on his first day in college basketball, and this season the Grizzlies believe that they have the lowest record in the West, and the team management is determined to rebuild, this strong, that is, extremely powerful talent, is naturally valued by the Grizzlies.

The Americans also understand that the Bulls on the East Coast have a worse record than the Grizzlies in order to get this talent. But is it guaranteed, the Grizzlies are reasonable, moved with affection, and moved this genius to let him stay in Memphis to play instead of returning to his hometown of Chicago to play?

At the same time, the head coaches of the two teams also explained their tactics, and Ding Moan and Rose appeared together. Tigers' starting lineup: point guard Rose, point guard: Ding Moan, small forward: Anderson, power forward: Joey, center: Sean.

The University of Alabama Trail Blazers are: point guard: Aaron Johnson, shooting guard: Robert. Wattin, small forward: Channing. Toney, Power Forward: Lawrence, Center: Jeremy. Mayfield.

When Ding Mo'an appeared on the field, everyone was surprised. Last season, the Tigers' starting point guard Chris. Douglas was on the bench at some point, and the man who replaced him was an Asian.

"Well, there are two more newcomers to the Tigers' roster this season. Needless to say, one of them is Derek of Chicago, Illinois. Rose, who was the No. 1 high school player in the nation before joining the Memphis Tigers, is a strong player. But the other newcomer is a little strange. ”

"Rose's already strong enough to replace Willy, the team's starting point guard last season, is not surprising. But how did this Chinese surnamed Ding squeeze down Anderson, who performed well last season and was a sophomore this year? ”

"Could it be that Calippari wants this Chinese to play like Yao Ming to supplement their team's interior defense and rebounding disadvantage?" The ABC TV host glanced at the lineup list and joked with a smile.

The most important broadcast of tonight's game between the Tigers and the University of Alabama Trail Blazers is ABC TV, which bought the rights to broadcast the NCAA. And because ABC TV covers the whole of the United States, this broadcast is also called a live broadcast of the whole United States.

When many people heard the host's ridicule, they couldn't help but focus their eyes on Ross and disperse them to Ding Mo'an.

Johansen, who was sitting in the crowd of spectators, also glanced at Ding Mo'an, but Ding Mo'an's thin body could not make him interested in Ding Mo'an. He didn't think that Ding Mo'an, who looked thin, could bring him any surprises.

Johansen then turned his attention back to Rose on the field. At the same time, the referee also blew the whistle and threw the ball in the air, and the opening game of the new season of the Tigers officially began!

Center Sean's palm touched the basketball first, and he pushed the ball back to his own half, and Rose received the ball and advanced quickly. For the rapid advancement of the Tigers, the University of Alabama Trail Blazers, which is also a running team, also reacted quickly. Robert. Vardine and the rest of his team-mates lunged at their respective players.
