The next evening, the 76ers showed up at the Thunder's home arena.

The home arena is now known as the Chesapeake Energy Arena, which was changed shortly after the shutdown last year, and was originally called Ford Center. To put it bluntly, it is a change in naming rights, the original naming company was Oklahoma Ford Mercantile Company, and now it is the Chesapeake Group, and they signed a 12-year home title with the Thunder at once, the first year was three million dollars, and then increased at a rate of 3% every year.

All the players in the locker room changed their jerseys smoothly, and there were no unexpected situations that Tang Wenlong said.

When the players walked out of the field, Iguodala winked at Tang Wenlong, as if to say, look, I said there could be no snakes!

Tang Wenlong could only roll his eyes at this, maybe he could catch a bird like Ginobili?

The two teams started their own warm-up training, Tang Wenlong had nothing to connect, moved more joints, and then mainly focused on three-point projection to find a feeling, and there were all the following throws, constantly relaxing his shoulders and wrists, and his expression looked extremely calm.

Then the assistant coaches started passing the ball to the players, and the players received the ball, shot, layups, slam dunks, and the basketball flew all over the sky, and every second there were balls flying from somewhere and smashing into the basket. There were even balls tumbling in the air at the same time, converging and hitting each other to change their respective lines and fall to the sides.

After a while, the fans in the stadium gradually increased, and the rudiments of the blue ocean slowly emerged.

Looking at the dense Thunder fans, there are still a few 76ers fans wearing black jerseys, which are very conspicuous, and there is a little darkness in the 10,000 baskets.

After punctuality, the warm-up is over. The two teams began the appearance ceremony.

Today, the opening ceremony of the Thunder is obviously different, changing the low profile at the 76ers home court, every player comes out with energetic music and writhing body writhing, and when the last ace player Durant plays, the whole court roars the name of MVP, and the whole ear is deafening.

Comparatively. Every player of the 76ers will be booed by the fans in the stadium, and when Tang Wenlong played the last time, the boos could literally tear over the roof of the energy arena.

Tang Wenlong shook his head, and the camera gave him a close-up, and the boos suddenly increased by three points.

After the opening ceremony, the starters of both teams stayed on the pitch and the rest of the players walked off the field and returned to their bench positions.

The 76ers have Lowry, Iguodala, Tang Wenlong, David West and Marc Gasol on the 76ers' side, and Westbrook, Safrosa, Durant, Ibaka and Perkins on the Thunder's side. Both teams continued their usual starting line-ups for the regular season. No changes have been made.

Coach Brooks knows that the Thunder's problem is not on the inside, but on how to defend on the outside. He began today by emphasizing that the Thunder's players must play their aggressiveness, must be tougher than the 76ers, and must undermine the 76ers' internal and external connections.

The match started with another jump ball win for Ibaka.

Gasol Jr. pouted and walked back, in fact, Ibaka was also his own person of the same nationality. Even the two are currently selected for the Spanish national team lineup, but I didn't expect that he really couldn't jump the ball. It's not much faster than some of the Frontguards.

Westbrook raised his left arm high and extended two fingers to give tactical instructions.

Lowry was stunned for a moment, is this girl going to change her style and play a real playmaker instead?

As a result, in the next second, Westbrook passed the ball to Durant, who was covering without the ball. Durant catches the ball and dribbles a step and pulls up a jumper.

Tang Wenlong jumped up to interfere and covered his eyes.

Durant's sense of rhythm was already up when he shot, and with his footwork being more accurate, the shot was still a solid hit.

"Good shot!" Westbrook and Durant high-five. An assist in hand.

The first wave of offense scored goals, which greatly boosted the morale of the Thunder, and the applause in the energy arena was thunderous, and the fans sent cheers at the right time, which contributed to the Thunder's momentum.

The 76ers attacked the position, and the slogan of "defense, defense" sounded throughout the court, and the scattered 76ers fans could not form a climate at all and drowned in the blue ocean.

The whole Thunder team really took the initiative to find a physical confrontation, every move was very big, and the 76ers' tactical execution was very difficult, Tang Wenlong did not block Perkins for Gasol, he simply went out of the three-point line, and then asked Lowry to ask for the ball. At this time, when Tang Wenlong saw the ball, the audience booed.

Saflosa's arms outstretched, her palms sweating nervously.

Tang Wenlong stood with the ball in three threats, suddenly exerted force on his toes, jumped up straight with his body, held the basketball high with both hands, and made a dry jump shot with a hint of backwards!

"I actually voted like this!" Safrosa's eyes widened, and with a look of disbelief on his face, he pounced on him with the first reaction.

"Huh!" Hit, that's how confident it is!

Tang Wenlong's first wave of offense in the opening game was so unreasonable, and the slogan of "defense, defense" came to an abrupt end, like a duck pinched by the throat, completely unable to call.

"That's too overbearing." The host of the broadcast station said with a smile.

Tang Wenlong lowered his head and turned around and walked back, and there was no celebratory action, just the black jersey walking on the court, like an invincible black-armored knight.

The Thunder will clean up their minds, and morale will inevitably drop by a quarter, Westbrook is thinking about playing one himself, and after halftime, he directly attacked Lowry.

The amplitude of his first dribble was particularly large, although there was no change of direction and shaking, but it was already a big killer in a regular basketball game, Lowry fell behind one step, lost half a quarter, the two faced each other, Westbrook rushed in frantically, Lowry let go of the defensive position, and carved out a route.

Outside the restricted area, Gasol Jr. stood up in front and missed Perkins under the basket, and if Westbrook could find a teammate with the ball, Perkins could easily go to the basket.

However, his choice was to fly up directly like an explosive bag, facing Gasol's raised arms directly sideways to support the ball and fly to the basket, Gasol Jr. jumped up to interfere, under the terrifying two big long arms, Westbrook had no room to shoot at all, and threw it around the basketball hoop indiscriminately.

The ball didn't go in, and Perkins under the basket just picked up a rebound, and with a joy in his heart, he jumped up and prepared to put the basket (to be continued). )
