Chapter 284 - Provoking Salt Lake City?

As the evening wore on, Jazz fans in Salt Lake City were rushing to Energy Solutions Arena to wait for the start of the day's game.

Although they lost 105-114 to Denver in the first game against the Nuggets, it did not affect the support of Salt Lake City fans for the Jazz in the slightest, and the Clippers and other players who were still waiting in the player tunnel had already heard the noise in the energy plan arena.

When the DJ introduced the Clippers to the entrance, the boos even made this year's No. 5 show DeMar. The expression on DeRozan's face was a little unsightly, although the opening game of the Clippers was also an away game, but this away game was at the Staples Center Arena, which was actually not an away game at all, and he didn't experience this kind of boos from the fans at all.

"Demar, relax, this is just an appetizer, you must know that this is the Energy Solutions Arena, one of the most terrifying home stadiums in the league, you don't want to start stage fright now! Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll be scared to pee your pants later. "Demar. DeRozan's expression was also in Li Yao's eyes, and he couldn't help but laugh.

Hearing Li Yao's joke, the rest of the Clippers team also laughed, which suddenly relieved the pressure from the fans at the Energy Solutions Arena.

Although Li Yao was laughing at himself, Demar. DeRozan was not the slightest angry at this time, but was a little grateful for Li Yao's teasing, because his current state was obviously much better than before, and the tension had dissipated a lot.

Calmed DeMar a little. DeRozan, Li Yao's eyes couldn't help but fall on Patrick. Beverley, but to Lee's surprise, Patrick, who is also a rookie this year. Beverly didn't have a trace of nervousness at this time, but Li Yao could see a hint of expectation and fighting spirit in his eyes.

Li Yao couldn't help but nodded, he felt that Patrick. Beverley's performance should be related to the fact that he played for DniproDnipropetrovsk in the Ukrainian Second Division in the 08-09 season, although the team is not at a high level, but he also has the experience of playing away from home.

Demar. DeRozan was relieved just now, but the next scene made him stunned again.

With the passionate introduction of the DJ on the spot, the players of the Utah Jazz team also began to walk into the court one after another, and when the last five starters came out of the court, the cheers of the Energy Solutions Arena simply broke through the sky, and even made Li Yao's ears feel a trace of pain.

"It's really the most terrifying devil's home stadium in the league! I must do my best to turn Staples Center into the home of the devils, and let them cheer for me and scream for me! Li Yao secretly made up his mind at this time.

"Rookie, what's wrong? It can't be a pee for pants, right? Why don't I give you a start today, so you can change your panties? "Eric. Gordon also discovered DeMar at this time. DeRozan's expression stiffened again, and he couldn't help but tease.

The Clippers who originally focused their attention on the Jazz's entrance ceremony were also replaced by Erick. Gordon's words attracted his attention, and they all looked at Demar beside him. DeRozan.

"Who said that? I'm just a little curious about why the fans didn't cheer so much when we were at home, yes, that's it, and I'm going to prove myself in this energy solution arena today, Eric, and I hope you don't blame me for the short playing time. "Demar. DeRozan couldn't help but hurriedly explain when he saw that his teammates were looking at him.

"Rookie, that's the Staples Center Arena in Los Angeles, the fans are all people with status and status, how could they make such a crazy move." Eric. Gordon heard DeMar. After DeRozan's explanation, he couldn't help but pout.

"It's not that they're reserved, it's because we can't make them crazy, but it's the Clippers in the past, and from us, we have to make the fans crazy for us, and we didn't do a good job in the last game against the Suns." Of course Li Yao knows about Eric. Gordon's vague point is that there are two teams in Los Angeles first, one is the Lakers who have established several dynasties, and their Clippers are perennial fish belly teams, so although the home of the Clippers is also the Staples Center Arena, the level of passion of the fans is far from comparable to that of the Lakers.

However, in the last game against the Suns, when the Clippers' starting five Tigers clocked out in the third quarter, the fans at the Staples Center still sent the Clippers the most enthusiastic cheers and applause.

With the lessons of the past, compared with today, Li Yao is determined to make the Staples Center arena a new devil's home court when the Clippers play their home game, and he wants to let Los Angeles fans know that there is another king waiting to rise in Los Angeles in addition to the Lakers.

With the introduction of DJs on the spot, the Jazz's starting five tigers in this game also surfaced.

Center: Calelo. Feshenko; Power forward: Carlos. Boozer; Small forward: Andre. Kirilenko; Shooting Guard: Ronnie. Brewer; Point Guard: DeLong. Williams.

The Clippers still maintain the original starting lineup, because the lineup malleability and error tolerance of this lineup are the best set of lineups among all the Clippers lineups. Coach Dunleavy will certainly continue to use this lineup as a starter.

When it was time to jump the ball in the middle circle, Da Yao was able to beat Calelo, who was a full 10 centimeters shorter than him. Feshenko firmly controlled the basketball on the side of the Clippers.

Li Yao looked at Delong, who was staring at him not far away. Williams couldn't help laughing, you must know that he Li Yao was able to lead the Stanford men's basketball team to stand out from the NCAA Championship and finally successfully won the NCAA championship, which is inextricably linked to the little fat man in front of him.

It is precisely because of the fact that there was only a B grade from Delong. Williams' blocking and dismantling skills allowed Li Yao to lead the Stanford men's basketball team to play a good start in the NCAA Championship, and it also allowed Li Yao to lay a firm foundation for more skills and ball coins in the future.

Although due to the acquisition of more and more powerful skills, Li Yao gradually put this blocking and dismantling skill that has been promoted to the A-level in the skill library while improving his strength, and rarely used it.

But after the previous game against the Suns, Li Yao planned to take out this skill again, who would have thought that he would meet the person involved in the skill today, which has to say that Li Yao and Delong. Williams is so destined.

"Since it's so fateful, then let me use your blocking and dismantling skills to surprise you today." After the corners of Li Yao's mouth hooked up a touch of arc, he directly greeted Sergi. Ibaka stepped forward to cover for himself.

Delong defending Lee. Williams also moved with Li Yao when he saw Li Yao start, but the moment he moved sideways, he found that he had installed a wall, and the touch that came from him made Delong. Williams understood that Li Yao was going to play blocking and dismantling in front of him.

In an instant, Delong. Williams couldn't help but be a little funny, he really told Li Yao that this is Salt Lake City, this is the Energy Solutions Arena, and he is playing blocking and demolition tactics here, is Li Yao crazy.

And defending Sergi. Carlos of Ibaka. Boozer also expanded his defense at this time, and when he saw Carlos. When Boozer was expanding the defense, Li Yao couldn't help but roar to make Sergi. Ibaka quickly descended.

Sergi who received Li Yao's instructions. Ibaka immediately turned and walked down.

And what Li Yao is about to face at this time is from Delong. Williams and Carlos. Boozer's two-man bag defense.

At the moment when the opponent was about to form a circle, Li Yao directly made a blow to the ground from Carlos. In the gap between Boozer's legs, he passed the basketball to Sergi, who was already empty in front of him. In the hands of Ibaka.

Sergi who received a pass from Li Yao. Ibaka didn't stop at all, and just rose into the air and dunked the basketball in his hand into the basket.

"Ho, what do we see? Lee actually played a pick-and-roll game at the Energy Solutions Arena in Salt Lake City! On the TNT commentary bench, Barkley couldn't control himself a little after seeing the Clippers' offense, and said excitedly.

"Lee's crotch-piercing pass was really exciting, and it looks like there should be that goal in the top five of today's goals." Kenny on the side. Smith also nodded as he stared at the replay footage from the big screen.

You must know that Li Yao's pass just now would have been formed by the two of the Jazz team if it was a little later, but Li Yao was not nervous at all, not only that, but he was even able to find the most direct way to pass the ball, so that Kenny, who was also a point guard. Smith applauded.

"By the way, Kenny, have you noticed that Lee seems to be provoking his opponents lately?" Barkley was still admiring Li Yao's boldness just now, but he changed his words and looked at Kenny with a mysterious face. Smith said.

"How?" Kenny. Smith was stunned by Barkley's words.

"You see, in the opening game against the Lakers, Lee scored directly against Kobe, and when facing the Suns, he played a fast break with the Suns, and now when facing the Jazz, he actually played blocking and dismantling tactics, isn't this a provocation?" Barkley said excitedly.

"Sir Charles, although I do not agree with you, I cannot refute it." Kenny. When Smith saw Barkley's blinking eyes, he instantly understood what his old partner wanted to do, so he also cooperated with Barkley and said.

Li Yao didn't know that the two commentators of TNT were pit themselves at this time, and he was seeing Sergi. After the end of Serge's dunk, Serge was in the easy and Serge. After high-fives and celebrations, Ibaka directly beckoned the Clippers to press on the spot.

As a defensive arrow, Li Yao was the first to meet Delong, who had just received the serve. Williams.
