"Hey buddy, there are so many young people I'm optimistic about, I don't know who you're talking about."

At the home court of the Washington Wizards, star point guard John Wall warmed up and responded to his teammates: "Bradley, Michael Wu will definitely play." ”

"Why? The back of his head was planted on the floor, and if it was a concussion, it wouldn't be healed in a few days. ”

The person who chatted with Wall was none other than the Wizards' No. 2 man, Bradley Beal.

With a shot in the shot, Bill continued: "In the last game, that Michael Wu didn't play. ”

"Maybe, but I have a hunch that he's going to play."

Wall didn't dwell too long on this issue, jumped up and grabbed the basket, and then turned his gaze to the bench of the visiting team: "That guy can't play, this game, we have to win." ”

The Wizards signed Beal to a new contract this summer, and at the same time, let go of interior player Nene and straightened Markieff Morris.

It stands to reason that this season should have been a big one, but so far this season they haven't been doing well.

They have won only seven of their 19 games so far, failing to even win half of them.

This put the team's head coach Scott Brooks under pressure, and there are countless head coaches who have been cut due to a weak record, and no one knows if the next one is him!

Again, the Brooklyn coach will never allow himself to be the one who gets eliminated!

Unlike the tense atmosphere on the Wizards' side, on the Magic side, Vogel only explained some precautions for the game when the players were warming up.

"Elfried, you play on the bench with Michael, DJ, you're starting today."

Vogel instilled his thoughts on Payton Jr.: "Michael has to play today, but I can't guarantee his form, so you have to play with him and make sure the rotation is consistent." ”

In the next game, the team lost to the second team, and although Wu Rui will come back this time, Vogel is still a little unsure.

"No problem, coach, with me and Michael, plus Aaron, the second team opposite is not our opponent at all!"

Payton Jr., although he was taken off the bench, looked very excited.

Seriously, he likes to play with Wu Rui, because Wu Rui's running is so positive, and he is also very good at rebounding, as long as he is a point guard who is willing to share the ball, he will definitely like to be a partner with such a player.

Vogel nodded, and then shifted his gaze to Wu Rui, who was twisting his neck: "Michael, how are you feeling now?" ”

"I'm feeling very good, sir." Wu Rui twisted his neck, stood up and moved his limbs: "You can play at any time." ”

"If you feel any discomfort and go straight to the foul, I'll replace you as soon as possible."

Vogel instructed, and when he saw Wu Rui nodding, he walked to the starters and explained the team's opening tactical arrangements.

Soon, the match between the two sides will begin, and the starters from both sides will appear together.

On the Magic side, sure enough, they changed their starters.

DJ Augustin was the starting point guard for the first game of the season, and the point guard who was alongside him was still Evan Fournier, and Aaron Gordon also returned to the starting position, leaving Jeff Green off the court.

It was a last-minute decision made by Vogel before the game began, for the simple reason that he wanted to see how Aaron Gordon would play against Wizards Porter.

The Magic's interior combination hasn't changed much, and it's still Ibaka and Vucevic.

On the Wizards' side, the starting lineup is also unchanged for thousands of years, Walbier partners with two guns in the backcourt, and Otto Porter, a potential stock who is highly expected by Wizards fans, stands in the starting small forward position, and the two big players on the inside are Polish Hammer Gortat and Markieff Morris!

"Orlando just ended their winning streak at home, and today, they're menacing!"

The commentator on the sidelines took advantage of the fact that the game was about to start and stirred up the atmosphere: "Judging from their drastic lineup changes today, Coach Frank Vogel definitely wants to start a consecutive away trip with a victory!" ”

"But the Wizards at home are also hungry for this victory!" Another commentator began to say good things about the Washington Wizards: "John Wall never disappoints Washington fans, and the home team has the best chance of winning this game!" ”

The two commentators touted separately, and soon, the referee stood on the halfway line and the jump ball began!

As the opening program of every game, Wu Rui didn't need to watch it, he knew that in the jump ball link, Vucevic lost to the other party again.

Sure enough, the first offense of the opening game was in the hands of the Wizards, and the basketball was transmitted several times to John Wall, the All-Star point guard held the rhythm steadily, dribbling while directing his teammates' tactical runs.

Simple blocking, reverse running, Bradley Beal shook off Fournier and easily got the space to shoot, Wall was quick to move, the ball passed, Bill took a shot, the basketball crossed the air, and fell into the net steadily!

The Wizards' first goal in the opening game was easily scored in the tacit cooperation of the two guns!

However, the Magic are not vegetarians either, and Ibaka relied on his arm span advantage to misplace and single Bill, shook it a little, and jumped up to shoot.

Truth be told, while Ibaka's block heel is impressive, his mid-range shooting is also very good.

"Brush!"

Serge Ibaka hit a mid-range shot, and both teams had a good start to the game.

At the beginning of the first quarter, both the Wizards and the Magic had a very high shooting rate, and the tactical run was perfect, and there were several tactical combinations that made the fans shout.

This kind of performance also makes the managers of the two teams dare not make easy substitutions, which is like a dynamic balance, once one side fluctuates and the balance is broken, the other side will be the biggest beneficiary.

And so on, until the end of the first quarter, the Wizards took the lead in making personnel adjustments, and on the Magic side, Vogel still did not move.

At the end of the first quarter, the two teams played a high score of 31-29 in Washington, D.C., and of course, the lead was the home team Wizards!

"Both teams played really well in the first quarter, which makes me even more excited about the second half of the game!"

The commentator gave a brief analysis of the first quarter of the game, saying, "Everyone knows that the Orlando Magic's second team has an indispensable key player. ”

"Today, whether or not Michael Wu can play or not may determine the final direction of this match!"

At the same time, on the Magic bench, Wu Rui stood up and took off his coat.

"Come, guys, it's our turn!"
