"Lee, you go and replace Kobe, you have the right to fire freely during this time!"

The coach's sudden gift made Li Chen unable to react, and he asked in surprise, "Coach, the right to fire freely?" You're saying make me decide to attack? ”

The old monk looked at the disciple strangely, "What, you have doubts about this decision?" Or are you not confident enough in yourself? Know you're your secret weapon? ”

"Well, Coach, Lindsay," Li Chen said hesitantly, the old monk's words made him easily think of what had just happened.

"Come on the field, I'm not as stingy as you think, since you said you are a secret weapon, you have to have a secret weapon appearance!" The old monk kicked his disciple's heel and urged him to hurry up, "Do you still want to sit here and chat with your friends?" ”

"No, no, I'll go!" Li Chen smiled, "Coach, just wait and see how I perform!" ”

With the huge group of relatives and friends behind him, Li Chen is about to make his first gorgeous appearance as a substitute.

"Rookie, the right to fire freely also means responsibility, you have to behave well!" The boss gave the order to the younger brother before leaving the field, and it seems that he already knew about the coach's arrangement. Indeed, the right to fire freely, which is easy to reverie, is not a reason why the old monk would not discuss it with Bryant.

"No problem!" Li Chen's answer was full of confidence.

The Big Apple attracted people's attention as soon as it came on the court, and the on-site commentator shouted very excitedly, "The Lakers' No. 0 rookie Cruz Lee is on the court, I know that many people are here today because they want to see the performance of this legendary rookie, so let's wait and see!" ”

The cheers were surging like a wave, and the long-awaited Big Apple was finally coming to the game, but in any case, Li Chen had already won the hearts of many New York fans through a series of previous performances, and most of them were confident in the plans of the Big Apple to move to Madison next season.

The enthusiasm of the audience made Li Chen a little overwhelmed, even he didn't expect that he could be so popular in New York, and he could see a deep envy and jealousy in the eyes of the Knicks players, indeed, it was not something they should be happy about when their own audience supported the players of other teams so much.

Daniro Gallinari, who was also a rookie in '08 with Li Chen, was particularly jealous in his eyes, and the Italians, who had played for Milan's Armani club, felt that this was simply an insult to him, he had never received such a warm welcome, but now a foreign player easily got such glory.

Gallinari is determined to put on a good show, he wants the New Yorkers to realize his existence, he wants people to cheer for him, although he is not the best in this rookie class, but Gallinari's strength should not be underestimated, he has a well-rounded skill and strong three-point ability, and a high basketball IQ, he was once considered the most talented player in the European Union, and he is also the most outstanding international player among the rookies, Gallinari has the capital to be proud of.

"Hey, Cruz, have you noticed that the players on the other side look at you strangely, I think if you give them a gun, one of them will kill you without hesitation, especially the Italian, that look, tsk!" Odom added fuel to the side that this game was almost impossible to lose anyway, and he needed to take the opportunity to create something interesting.

Li Chen smiled evilly, "I understand, those eyes are full of envy, jealousy and hatred, it's quite complicated!" I think you can understand that, too! ”

Odom instantly burst into laughter, "I think I'm still unwilling, you take a closer look, it's right!" ”

"Are you unwilling? I'll let him do it! Strength is everything! Li Chen made an oath very domineeringly, and it seems that he is determined to repay the support of the fans with a perfect performance today.

With 8 minutes left in the first quarter, Li Chen was replaced by the old monk, and the score was 18-14, and the Lakers led by 4 points, and the ball was also in their hands.

Fisher dribbled the ball across the half court, and according to the old monk's instructions, Lao Yu threw the ball to Li Chen without hesitation, and shouted to him at the same time.

"Cruze, you do what Kobe usually does! You can do it! ”

Li Chen smiled slightly, and after receiving the ball, he made an OK gesture towards Lao Yu, and it could be seen that he was fully prepared, and Lao Yu couldn't find a trace of hesitation on his face.

As expected, it was Gallinari who was unhappy to see him defending Li Chen, and the two leaders of the 08 rookies had their first head-to-head battle, the difference was that Gallinari was a little nervous, after all, the other party's name was there, and Li Chen was different, and the self-confidence accumulated in the field for a long time made him a little domineering.

"You're jealous of me! Really? Number 8! Li Chen rarely took the initiative to provoke, perhaps it was the enthusiasm of the audience that inspired the latent violence factor in him, and he felt that he needed a hearty victory.

Gallinari was furious by his opponent's contempt, and he responded, not to be outdone, "Jealousy, who do you think you are?" Jordan? It's just a rookie, by the way, your free throws must have been taught by your math teacher, and your shooting percentage is so consistent. ”

The opponent's provocation did not make Li Chen's mood fluctuate, he dribbled steadily, while constantly thinking about the offensive route in his mind, and of course he did not forget to launch a counterattack.

"I'm not Jordan, but I can do nothing about you!"

The moment he spoke, Li Chen's offense began instantly, almost the same as the tentative breakthrough of Keru, and the first step almost penetrated Gallinari's defense, the opponent's general physical fitness gave Li Chen a lot of advantage, although the tricks learned from the boss were not very proficient, but they were enough in the face of many players with average defense.

Gallinari found the mistake and turned around to keep up with the opponent's footsteps, and he wanted to cooperate with Curry on the inside to block Li Chen's offense, but the result was not as he thought.

Li Chen didn't blindly rush to the inside after passing the Italians, he knew best how capable he was, although the old monk asked him to learn from Kobe Bryant, but Li Chen knew that the boss's offense in the three-second zone was not within his reach, but fortunately, he also had an advantage.

The left foot took a step back diagonally, and he made a backward jumper, I have to say that his action is very beautiful, although the backward amplitude is not too large, but the standard of posture and the advantage of ultra-long arm span still make the defender have no choice, Gallinari's only choice is to foul, but because it is too sudden, the Italian has missed the best opportunity to foul.

Swish! The basketball hole pierces the Knicks' basket! The whole court was boiling, and the big apple's first attack was so clean and clean, which made the long-awaited fans very excited.

Li Chen's family and friends were also smiling, and Joey was excitedly discussing Li Chen's performance with his father.

"Old man, do you see, that's the backward jumper, I dare say, Cruze's backward is not the most difficult, but it is definitely the most beautiful!"

Tru was also very excited, watching Li Chen, who grew up under his nose, have grown into a skilled star, which made him very happy, and of course he didn't forget to teach his son a lesson.

"I'm in favor, but I say, Joey, aren't you and Cruze sworn friends, how are you leaning back? Let me see it someday. ”

Well, Joey's face changed instantly, and he said with a depressed face, "Don't mention it, Cruze said that his basketball talent was discovered by accident, and I also tried my talent later, but it turned out that it was difficult to even get a layup!" ”

Tru smiled and patted his son on the shoulder, "Everyone has their own specialty, Cruz told me privately about your performance in Los Angeles, and it can be seen that you are very suitable for business, as for basketball, isn't it enough to have your best friend!" Even though you didn't get into college at the beginning, you two have a good life through hard work! ”

"Well, I'm a die-hard Cruze fan, and I'm one of the admins of his fan base!" Joey was very excited, and the excellent performance of his dead friend made him feel that his face was shining.

Back on the court, it seemed that he was not satisfied with his attack just now, Li Chen continued to try to single Gallinari, and Lao Yu also handed the ball to his teammates in a harmonious manner, and the right to fire freely made Li Chen's attack unprecedentedly hot.

This time, he wants to try his hand at back-to-back singles!

Catching the ball on the left side of the free throw line and leaning back against him, Li Chen found that the opponent's strength was not much different from his own, if there was no back muscle of the leather team, it was not easy to simply squeeze away the Gallinari, and the Italian's height and arm span were also very good, Li Chen did not have too obvious advantages in front of him.

"Hey, number 8, I think you're thinking about how to foul! You can't stop me. "This is given to Li Chen by the boss, and it is also a good small means to distract the opponent when necessary.

"Shut up, bastard!" Gallinari didn't expect so much, the attack just now made him feel disgraced, and the home crowd behaved more like falling into a hole, the Italian's mood is very depressed now, and he can't control his emotions well, which is a problem that the average rookie has shows in him.

The opponent's own problems made Li Chen easily find an opportunity, and with a sudden increase in his back, Gallinari was hit by this sudden force and retreated slightly, and the timing was at this moment.

Li Chen completed the turn in an instant, stood on one foot, bent the other foot against the defender in front of him, his arms were straight, similar to Nowitzki's signature golden rooster independence, he threw the ball very decisively, such a strange action made the unbelieving Gallinari give up the foul, he didn't think the ball would go in.

But the damn ball went in, Gallinari was speechless, and at the same time he regretted his hesitation, and he vowed to nip his opponent's shot in the bud next time no matter what.

"Hey, number eight, why don't you foul, you know, I have a thousand ways to put the ball in the hoop! That's just one of them! Although the ball was scored, Li Chen did not forget to taunt the opponent's defense, he needed to be excited very much today, and the anger on the opponent's face was his most effective doping.

D'Antoni shouted from the sidelines, "Foul, Daniro, remember the foul, just let him make free throws and you'll win!" ”

The other coach's shouting further fueled Li Chen's arrogance, "Hear it, No. 8, your coaches all let you remember to foul, don't be in vain, just with your defense, you can't even prevent that Chinese Sun in our team." ”

Li Chen's words were very detrimental, comparing one of the opponent's starters with the mascot in his own team was completely contemptuous of the opponent's strength Chi Guoguo.

Sure enough, the next time Li Chen touched the ball, Gallinari took the opportunity to give a foul, looking at Li Chen's red arm, the Italian felt very satisfied.

Li Chen was surprisingly not angry, and looked at his opponent very calmly, "Hmph, you really can't stop me, finally foul, recognize your weak strength!" You are wise, keep fouling! ”

Perhaps it was the words and annoying expression that finally angered Gallinari, and the Italian did not hesitate to foul Li Chen without the ball after re-serving, and the violent pushing made the referee award the Lakers two free throws without hesitation.

Two free throws and two hits!

The unexpected result made Li Chen snicker, in his opinion, God was on his side, he laughed at Gallinari unscrupulously, "That's right, just say you should foul, look, two free throws, it's only two points, if I want to attack, I may get three points!" ”

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led by 6 points at 28-22, and Li Chen, who came on as a substitute for the first time, played very well, scoring 7 points in four minutes, scoring points on four offenses, and making three of four free throws was even more surprising.

The fans in New York cheered, and James Dolan in the VIP box was also excited, and the magic of the Big Apple really continued. In the eyes of these people, the worse New York is beaten at this moment, the more brilliant his future will be.

Before the light is always night, and before the glory is always the belly of the fish! New Yorkers see hope for the team's rise in their beloved Big Apple!

(I look forward to tickets and collection!! ）
