A lot of people are watching this game, and they want to see what kind of performance China's second-round show will have.

"How will he stop Carter's onslaught today? By his face? ”

"Let me see how he can score 50 points in a single game."

There are still some people in the United States who hate Li Cheng, they are prejudiced against the Chinese, they are jealous of Li Cheng's appearance, they do not believe that a Chinese two-round show can suddenly explode and defeat the little emperor they worship. Because they don't want to believe it, they want to see with their own eyes what kind of performance Li Cheng's match will have.

……

Before each game, Li Cheng warms up very seriously. Every time he plays, he pays attention to these details, which is why O'Brien is more than happy to send him on the field after he has proven his ability. What he usually says and does, O'Brien sees it in his eyes, and his impression of Li Cheng is actually very good.

"Looking at his shooting action during the warm-up, it's very handsome."

"The action is handsome and you can't eat, James White's dunk is picturesque, can he play in the NBA?"

"Alright! The warm-up is over, so let's take a good look at their game. ”

……

After the warm-up, Vince Carter had just walked to the sidelines, and immediately a reporter pointed the microphone at him.

"Vince, do you know Li Cheng? This Indiana rising guy is a very nice guy, will you defend him tonight? ”

"Li Cheng? Who is he? Carter was clearly confused.

"That's the guy who scored 50 points in Cleveland."

"Oh!" Carter suddenly realized and hurriedly said, "I'm looking forward to playing with him." I heard that he was still a substitute player, and I don't know if he will start today. ”

Carter's answer was more modest, whether he knew who Li Cheng was or not, but such an answer would definitely not hurt the harmony.

Carter wasn't a big guy either, he often played with a smile on his face, and the reporters weren't bad. So, the reporter continued to ask: "Lee is the second round show this year, do you think he will be like Arenas?" Or will he grow up and reach a status similar to yours? ”

"He's a second-wheeler? Is he still a rookie this year? Carter was stunned for a long time before replying in surprise.

In fact, before today, Carter didn't know anything about it, and if it weren't for Li Cheng's 50-point score, it would be too rebellious. He only learned from the reporter that there was this person, and this guy was also the object of the coach's explanation before the game. In addition, Carter's understanding of Li Cheng is zero.

At this time, Li Chenggang walked into the players' tunnel. A reporter caught up with Li Cheng and told Li Cheng what Carter had just said. The reporter mainly wanted to see Li Cheng's reaction, so as to dig up some news worth breaking the news.

Li Cheng was slightly stunned and said, "He doesn't understand me, it's normal!" With that, he left. The reporter was very disappointed and wanted to catch up and continue to ask, but Li Cheng waved his hand at him with a stern face, which was considered a refusal.

Although what Li Cheng said just now was very light, his heart was not as relaxed as it seemed.

He thought he would be famous after scoring 50 points, but he was wrong. There are many people who know him, but there are many more who don't know him. Why should an All-Star like Carter, who has already become famous, pay attention to him?

"Alright! Since you don't know me, you'll remember me tonight. Li Cheng said secretly in his heart.

Many American players have been able to make a name for themselves since they entered the NBA, and that's because they've been in the spotlight since high school.

And then when they go to college, they play in the NCAA, and people will continue to follow him until they make it to the NBA in the draft. This period lasted six or seven years, so many American players gained huge popularity as soon as they entered the NBA.

Li Cheng is much worse than those American players, and he can no longer enter the eyes of fans except for being brainlessly promoted by the Chinese media. If it weren't for that 50-point game, it would have taken more and longer for him to enter the American people's field of vision.

Li Cheng knew that there would be a lot of fans watching this game today, it was a game that was broadcast live in the United States, and it was the first time he played in front of the people of the whole United States. Coupled with Carter's words, Li Cheng's fighting spirit today has been completely burned.

……

After the official start of the competition, all discussions on the Internet and in front of the TV were temporarily stopped. No matter what the pre-match argument turned out to be, Li Cheng's performance in the game was the most important.

And the fans at home did not stop talking, "That Chinese is really good!" ”

"He's been playing better and better games and I think he'll be the most important member of the team soon."

Some female players are also discussing.

'He still didn't start today and I don't know when he's going to be replaced.

"I hope he can play early, I really want to see his handsome shooting sooner!"

"In the NBA, a player like him, handsome and elegant, is really likable!"

Li Cheng sat on the sidelines, and he caused so much discussion before he even played. But he didn't care about the discussions, and now he's reading the game carefully. Sitting on the sidelines and reading the game allows him to integrate into the team's attack very quickly once he comes on the pitch, a habit he has developed in recent games.

At the start of today's game, the Pacers played well. After losing All-Star point guard Kidd, the Nets' offense looked a little messy.

On the other hand, with the Pacers, Granger played aggressively as soon as he came up. In the last game, Li Chengcheng completed an outburst against the sky by his side, and as Li Cheng's friend, Granger was also unwilling to be lonely.

At the beginning of today's game, Granger hit two consecutive layups, plus a mid-range jumper, and scored six points in a row to help the Pacers take an 8-2 lead in the opening period.

Carter didn't feel very good today, missing both shots. The Pacers, for their part, seized the opportunity and sealed the lead in one fell swoop.

Until the eighth minute of the first quarter, the score of the two teams was 16-21. O'Brien called the first timeout of the game, and Lee was replaced.

Seeing Li Cheng being replaced, many people began to concentrate their attention. They all want to see what kind of skills this Chinese has, and what kind of magical expression he will have today.

"Look, that guy is on the field."

"Let me see what kind of three heads and six arms this Chinese has."

"I think Vince will blow him up and teach him how to be a human being."

As soon as Li Chenggang came on the field, it sparked a larger discussion, and it seems that his appearance is the highlight of the day.
