The American people did not pay attention to this game, but in China it attracted unprecedented attention from fans. Because in this game, there will be two Chinese who will meet directly.

The Chinese player with the highest status in the NBA is now Yao Ming, but the meeting between Li Cheng and Yi Jianlian has also attracted a lot of attention from Chinese fans.

The NBA schedule is also very interesting, after the Pacers play the Bucks at home on March 2, the Pacers will fly to Texas on March 5, visiting Houston and San Antonio. In the next two games of the Pacers, Li Cheng will meet Yi Jianlian and Yao Ming respectively.

"I really didn't expect that the Chinese are so terrifying." Stern's assistant said, "The population base determines a qiē! ”

At ESPN's headquarters, an emergency meeting is taking place.

"But in the middle of those two games, our original plan was to broadcast the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Dallas Mavericks and the Detroit Pistons vs. Cleveland Cavaliers. Both of these games are the highlights! ”

"Anyway, those two games for the Pacers are obviously worth more."

"How many Chinese do you think will watch these two games? When the time comes, we won't lose more than we gain. ”

"Believing in the ability of those Chinese, the ratings of these two games will definitely not be low."

What was supposed to be just two games that should have attracted attention in China has also caused some shock in the United States on the other side of the ocean. The motherland is strong, the population is large, and the Chinese people are slowly influencing the whole world.

Of course, the place with the greatest influence is still in the Great Celestial Empire in the East.

How many fans are waiting for the arrival of this episode with anticipation. Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are two players that are no strangers to Chinese fans. But the sudden rise of Li Cheng, what is the story behind him?

Who doesn't love listening to stories? Especially listen to the stories you want to know.

March 1 was a Saturday, and many fans finished their meals early and sat in front of the TV waiting for the start of this special episode of Celestial Empire 5.

Yang Yu is a veteran basketball fan who has been watching the NBA since 1987, when China began broadcasting NBA games. He was a kid at the time, and he was just a sophomore in high school when Jordan won the championship in his final year.

However, unlike the vast majority of Chinese fans, he loves the Utah Jazz only when everyone is impressed by Qiao's gang.

Maybe he was struck by the spirit of Utah!

When Jordan scored a goal to kill Judaws, Yang Yu remembered very well that he was in math class. At that time, he secretly listened to the radio during class, and the commentator said: "Jordan steals Malone, he dribbles directly to the Jazz basket, Russell is shaken down by him, Jordan is ready to jump!" The ball is in! The Bulls overtook the score! 86-85, the Jazz still have 6.9 seconds to go! ”

When Yang Yu heard this, his heart had sunk to the bottom. Then he heard Stockton's three-pointer miss, and when the Utah pair fell in front of the championship trophy again, he fell directly on the table and cried.

In fact, Yang Yu's heart was the same as that of Salt Lake City fans at that time. When Stockton hit a three-pointer, the excitement in his heart almost made him shout in class. But then Qiao gang leader made two consecutive shots, which directly made his tears welled up in his eyes.

These are all old things, and the current Yang Yu does not have a clear support for the stars and teams. He just simply likes the NBA and the memories that the NBA brings him. But now he feels that there is another player in the NBA who is deeply appealing to him. That Indiana No. 23 can really drive his long-dormant heart to change back to the excitement he once had.

Before the "Pride of China" program started, Yang Yu had already made a pot of tea, then sat on the sofa and comfortably lit a cigarette.

When the show began, when the voices of Yu Jia, the supporter of the show, and Zhang Weiping, the guest present, came out, Yang Yu unconsciously sat up straight.

There was no separate interview with the players in this program, only the stories that the reporters of Celestial Empire Channel 5 dug up behind the scenes.

Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian's growth path is very ordinary, but Li Cheng's growth has a hint of legend.

This show has a total of half an hour, but the time to introduce Li Cheng has reached 16 minutes, obviously this show is made for Li Cheng.

When Yu Jia began to introduce Li Cheng, Yang Yu's eyes widened, and he lit another cigarette for himself. But he didn't take two puffs of this cigarette, and the cigarette was burning slowly, until a long string of ash fell to the ground and the spark burned his hand, and he reacted, and he still had a cigarette in his hand!
