The preseason game is not very popular, and compared to the overwhelming publicity of the hot regular season, the preseason game is at best a way for fans to get a sense of the upcoming atmosphere of the NBA in advance.

In the three weeks before and after, the 76ers completed a total of seven preseason games.

Tang Wenlong drove low and walked high, and completed the counterattack against his doubts in a stable manner.

76ers fans are beginning to hear about the name of the showman, who is an excellent athlete from the far east, showing good shooting ability and offensive skills at the shooting guard position.

In particular, the response ball was impressive.

For example, in the third game with the Hawks, after the Eagle King Joe Johnson used a juggling dribble to shake off the space and retreat to hit a jumper, Tang Wenlong immediately switched to the front court, and used a jump step after turning his back to kill the basket and dodge the block hit of young center Horford, which was also wonderful.

Iguodala commented in an interview about Tang Wenlong, who has only played a few games with him - this is a player with a lot of strategy, his fighting spirit, and his willpower is tenacious, and he is a rare talent.

So some attentive fans suddenly found that in the last preseason game against the Bobcats again, Tang Wenlong had been placed in the starting position by Collins, and everything happened quietly, naturally and incredible.

Tang Wenlong couldn't tell what it was like to be a starter, but when the DJ introduced him hoarsely, he knew that he was in love with such a feeling, which was really intoxicating like a poppy.

When he finally faced the Bobcats again, Tang Wenlong scored 13 points in 22 minutes, which was very efficient, and compared with a few days ago, it was like a different person.

"I have a lot of confidence in him, he's a very good learner and he's getting used to the NBA more and more." In the interview, Collins was full of praise for his disciples.

It's not officially the start of the NBA regular season, but it's already a bit stormy.

The 10-11 season is a season of great competition, and the Heat in the East have just followed the Celtics to form an unprecedented Big Three, which is unprecedented because the three players of the Big Three, James, Wade and Bosh, are all twenty-six or seventeen years old and in their prime. The Lakers in the West won their second championship, and Kobe Bryant was on his way to his second three-in-a-row championship. Coupled with the rise of young janissaries such as the Bulls, Thunder, and Trail Blazers, the NBA's Mesozoic stars and the new generation of stars have collided violently.

In the official pre-game promotional video, such a picture of gunsmoke was rendered as much as possible, which made the fans' blood boil.

On October 26, the NBA officially arranged three opening games, the first of which was the new Big Three of the Heat vs. the old Big Three of the Celtics.

At this time, Tang Wenlong had already taken a shower in the Philadelphia apartment he had just rented, and nestled quietly in bed, waiting for the game to start.

Speaking of this 25-storey, more than 100-square-meter apartment, located on the banks of the magnificent and rich Delaware River, open the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows, and even look out across the New Jersey state. The rent of the apartment is about 8,000 per month, which is not a large amount for Tang Wenlong, who now earns millions of dollars a year. The decoration style is simple, the supporting facilities are complete, and the property service is excellent. With a huge area, Tang Wenlong moved in alone, which can be called a luxury level.

Tang Wenlong took a fancy to its large room by the river, he could admire the endless river when he looked down, and when he opened the window, he could smell the water vapor rushing to his face, and he was relaxed.

After Tang Wenlong entered the alliance, he found that he knew too little about the alliance.

Nocioni told him that to be a good NBA player, you have to know not only all the NBA rules, but also all the NBA rules. The rules are dead, but people are alive, the referee is not a machine, and the penalty benchmark will not be maintained on a scale forever, and the player who can use the rules is the smartest player.

Tang Wenlong thinks so, so he now likes to watch some videos more and more.

This is some of the video materials that the 76ers themselves treasured, not the kind that is circulated among outside fans, Tang Wenlong got a dozen of the materials preserved by the 76ers in the hands of Stefanski. One of the most numerous and the most complete is Aaron Iverson's match data.

However, today is the opening game of the NBA regular season, and he naturally sees the focus of the Heat vs. Celtics, because just tomorrow, the Heat will come to Philadelphia to challenge their 76ers back-to-back, and no one dares to be careless in the face of such a strong opponent.

After a commercial, the two teams on the TV screen officially start playing.

The Celtics, who played at home, gave the ambitious Heat a blow to the head, and the Heat only scored a humiliating 9 points in the first quarter, which was a big surprise.

The Celtics didn't score much, only 16 points, and this first quarter completely evolved into an iron session, with the muscles of both sides thumping, and few goals that could be scored smoothly. So a discerning person knows as soon as he looks at the Heat that there is no problem with the man-to-man defense, and the problem is in the offense.

Tang Wenlong, who was in front of the TV, thought that maybe Wade and James were both offensive players with the ball, which led to mutual discomfort on the offensive end.

In the second quarter, the shooting percentages of both sides rebounded, and the Celtics led by fifteen points at 45-30 and went into the locker room.

There is no subtlety in the long shot of the broadcast, Tang Wenlong wants to give a close-up to the defensive players, will it let fans see a different scene in the NBA every minute?

"Dididi~" The laptop he placed on the bedside sounded in a familiar voice.

Tang Wenlong smiled on his face, held up the laptop with one hand, and put it on his lap sitting cross-legged, the 15.6-inch laptop screen looked particularly petite in front of Tang Wenlong's tall body.

The penguin's head shook for a while, "What are you doing?" ”

Tang Wenlong: "I'm watching the game, the opening game of the regular season. ”

"Oh"

Tang Wenlong: "What about you?" Have you gotten up for class? ”

"Yes, it's a boring high math today, and I don't like math at all." Fang Chuxia typed on the keyboard quickly.

Tang Wenlong could imagine the scene of the girl pouting as if she was hanging an oil bottle, and couldn't help laughing faintly, and then immediately replied: "If you don't like it, you won't go." ”

Fang Chuxia: "You think I'm you?"

Tang Wenlong: ""

Fang Chuxia: "Good news for you!" ”

Tang Wenlong: "What's the good news?" ”

Fang Chuxia: "Guess it, there is a prize for guessing!" ”

Tang Wenlong, who was in front of the computer, touched his chin and guessed it seriously, and in less than ten seconds, his eyes lit up, and then he quickly typed out a line of words: "Is it the big eye and your top bunk?" ”

He Dayan had played with Tang Wenlong during the summer vacation in their dormitory, and at that time, Fang Chuxia's roommate had to pull Fang Chuxia to see Tang Wenlong, so Tang Wenlong had a flash of inspiration and called out the people in the two dormitories at the same time, and simply had a small friendship. It's strange to say, after He Dayan, who has always been heartless, met Fang Chuxia for the first time, he actually became polite and polite, which made Tang Wenlong and his roommates very different, and they all agreed that He Dayan's spring was coming.

Fang Chuxia in front of the computer snorted, almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of water, what is this?

Then she was a little emotional, a little unhappy, and angrily typed a few spaces on the keyboard and sent a [right hum] emoji.

Tang Wenlong wiped his sweat at the same time as O'Neill on TV, and vaguely felt a little bad.

He immediately snorted and changed the topic, "Ha, it turns out that this is not the case." Then let me think again, think about it."

"Could it be that the paper has won an award? Congratulations, woman! Tang Wenlong's eyes rolled, and he thought of another one.

Fang Chuxia was so angry with him that he couldn't cry or laugh, and typed: "Are you a pig, why are you so stupid, ahhh

Tang Wenlong replied aggrievedly: "It's really hard to guess if you can't go to the village and don't have a store behind you~"

Fang Chuxia: "Did you talk about it on the phone last week?" “

Tang Wenlong was stunned, last week? The electric motor in his mind quickly rolled over the memory of the last week, playing against the Bobcats, and before that, he made three three-pointers in a single game with the Raptors, no, no, I want to play the game! He shook his head and recalled the chat on the phone

Suddenly, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he almost jumped out of bed with joy.

Then he typed out a line with his hand quickly, and changed two words in excitement. "You're going to study here?"

Fang Chuxia, who was in front of the computer on the other end, finally had a smile on his face, and responded arrogantly: "En! "Haha~" Tang Wenlong laughed and typed, he couldn't close his mouth at all, "I'm so happy, your school is still humane enough, I'll thank you for the big plaque another day." "Phew, what are you talking about?" Fang Chuxia was coquettish.

"Do you know which university to go to?"

"Columbia University."

Well, Tang Wenlong found that he asked a stupid question, he didn't know about American universities at all, he didn't learn anything except playing basketball last year, but he wouldn't continue to ask his sister questions, he directly searched for information about Columbia University on the search engine, and then replied pretending to understand very well.

"New York, great, super close to Philadelphia!"

While the two were chatting, the game between the Heat and the Celtics was coming to an end, and in the third quarter, the Heat fought back and launched a wave of offensive frenzy.

However, the hole dug in the first two quarters was too big, and in the end, it was still 80-88 to lose to the Celtics, losing the focus of the opening game.

PS: The preseason is just a brushstroke, and the main body is written to describe the regular season.
