Chapter 6: Appearances

Sometimes Rivers doesn't have to lay out too much at all, and when you have a good enough point guard on the team, it's enough to help him do a lot of things, and Paul is such a good guard.

The game soon kicked off, the Clippers jumped the ball and took the lead in attacking, Paul controlled the rhythm when the time was halfway to the basket and handed it to Griffin, who stepped back and squatted the basketball above his head to attract all the attention of the Pelicans basket, but the opponent did not raise his troops to kill, Griffin did not hesitate to fake the shot and jump on the spot and threw the ball to the basket.

"Huh!" The basketball went into the net, and the Clippers scored the first shot.

The Pelicans didn't have an advantage in the starting lineup, but they also had their own unique way of attacking, and the basketball fell to Davis, who also opted for a jumper, a mid-range shot from one meter to the left of the free throw line, and the basketball was also hit.

The opening of both sides intentionally or unintentionally revolved around the inside line, and the first few minutes were really indistinguishable, and the two sides staged a fierce inside hand-to-hand fight, and from time to time they were always able to deliver a wonderful dunk, so that the fans warmed up and cheered loudly.

The shooting percentage in the first half of the first quarter was impressive, so the score rose quickly, but the second half was not so lucky, but even so, the Clippers scored 36 points at the end of the first quarter, leading the Pelicans by a full 8 points at 36:28.

In the first quarter, the Clippers rotated 8 people, and Chen Lei didn't get a chance from beginning to end, and he was a little frustrated and not surprised.

"It's just a temporary worker, don't expect too much!" Chen Lei comforted himself and sighed slightly.

China on the other side of the ocean.

In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, the host Zhao Ke and the guest Su Yi were summarizing the first quarter of the game, and of course, they were also speculating about the subsequent games.

"The yellow-skinned kid who appeared in the camera just now should be Chen Lei, but I don't know if this little guy can play today." Zhao Ke looked at Chen Lei in the camera with some expectation, "The information says that he has participated in the draft this year, but why didn't the domestic media get the information?" You must know that none of the Chinese players are standing on that field now, which is not in line with their routine. ”

Su nodded, "Indeed, but it's no wonder that they are, I deliberately checked it yesterday, Chen Lei has been using their English name Jack in the United States, so the name of participating in the draft is also Jack, and he is predicted to be at the bottom of the hundred or so drafts, so it is normal not to be mentioned, and this guy doesn't know why many teams didn't participate in the pre-draft tryouts, and no one will notice him." ”

"The Clippers are very efficient in the first quarter, I think if they go on like this, if they get a big advantage in the first half, Chen Lei still has a chance to play, Mr. Su, what do you say?" Zhao Ke guessed.

"I'm in the same mood as you are looking forward to this guy coming on the court, but you have to know that the coach of the Clippers is Rivers, and he probably can't do anything like that." Su Yi thought about it and said.

The fans who followed this game in China were in the same mood as the two teachers, all looking forward to Chen Lei being able to play, I don't know if God heard the prayers of so many Chinese people, and the second quarter really gave Chen Lei a chance.

This starts with 7 minutes and 21 seconds in the second quarter, Griffin was directly elbowed to the nose by the Hornets' thick eyebrows Davis in a scramble for rebounds, and the poor white monster tough guy Griffin had a nosebleed, and at this moment the Clippers have led the Pelicans by 11 points.

Rivers immediately replaced him, glanced at Turkoglu and just wanted to let him play, he saw Chen Lei sitting on the side, his eyes were still shining with anticipation, remembering what the boss said at noon to give him a chance to play to earn eyeballs, and then looked at the scoreboard, and made a decision in his heart.

"No. 8, report to the technical station!" Rivers snorted at Chen Lei.

"Hey, I really envy them, I can replace my teammates again." Chen Lei looked at the bench with envy in his heart, and when he saw that no one had stood up, he suddenly remembered something.

Lowering his head, lifting his training clothes, looking at the huge '8' on his chest, Chen Lei jumped up from the ground suddenly.

Number 8, it's yourself!

"Teach............ Coach ......" Chen Lei pointed to his nose in disbelief, saw Rivers nodded excitedly and ran directly to the court, ran two steps, thought of the rules of the NBA, immediately returned to the technical station to report his name, and then rushed into the court excitedly.

"Congratulations, boy! You know, rookie temporary workers only play once or twice in 10 days, and you can get a chance to play in the second quarter of the first game, thanks to Davis on the other side. Collison patted Chen Lei's chest and joked.

"Hmm...... Okay, I got it! Chen Lei nodded seriously, ran to the basket and walked to Davis in Collison's stunned gaze, "Thank you!" ”

"Huh?" Davis looked surprised, what does this guy mean?

"This ......" Collison looked at Chen Lei with an expression of seeing a monster, wonderful!

Chen Lei's appearance can be said to have attracted the attention of nearly one million people, of course, Chen Lei doesn't know this, he has only one purpose at the moment, that is, to cherish the opportunity to be there.

"I'm on the field, I really didn't expect Chen Lei to get the opportunity to play so soon!"

"yes, don't say it, this guy is really good-looking!"

"It is said that there has been no Chinese in the NBA for a long time, but I don't know what his strength is."

…… The Chinese fans gathered in front of the TV all started talking, looking at Chen Lei's tall body, a trace of expectation rose in their hearts, and of course, a trace of worry.

They expect Chen Lei to have a good appearance, but they are worried that such a guy who has never appeared in China will be short-lived and disappear from everyone's sight.

The Clippers took the lead in attacking, Collison dribbled past half court and rushed two steps to the basket under Jordan Jr.'s block, and the opponent in front of him had to split the ball and rush to Barnes outside the three-point line on the right.

Barnes received the ball and prepared for a three-pointer but was stopped by Evans, who was on the defensive side, and the shooting percentage could not be guaranteed again, so he had to hand the ball to Collison.

Collison received the ball and turned on the breakthrough mode again, and as last time, he took two steps and swiped his arm to pass the ball to the outside Barnes again, and this time Barnes, who ran to the empty position, did not hesitate and got up to make a three-point shot.

"Bang!" The basketball smashed on the basket and bounced aside, Jordan Jr. raised his long arm to collect the rebound, and jumped twice to make a brutal dunk but was slapped out of the court by Davis, who made up for it on the side.

The fans at the scene were boiling, and they gave their cheers to their champion Lang Davis, Jordan Jr. pouted when he saw this, glanced at Davis and picked up the basketball and handed it to Collison.

Time is very sufficient, Collison is not in a hurry but controls the rhythm in the middle, and Chen Lei, who has the first opportunity to play on the inside, is stuck with Davis.

At this moment, Chen Lei was still a little nervous in his heart, but Davis's block removed most of his nervousness.

For no other reason, in his opinion, if he stopped this guy, the Clippers would have scored 2 points safely, so he also concentrated all his attention and energy on the confrontation with Davis.

Davis's body is very good, both in strength and physique, but Chen Lei in front of him is a guy who is about the same height as him and weighs more than ten kilograms more than him, so when the two are compared, Davis has no advantage.

Davis tried to go around in front of Chen Lei to block the route between him and the rest of the Clippers, but Chen Lei was pushed back after several attempts, and then he was stuck behind.

Seeing that his defense didn't work, Davis gritted his teeth and tried to push Chen Lei to the front, but when he exerted his strength, he found that Chen Lei was even more desperate than him to stop him.

"Why is this guy so heavy?" Davis was a little depressed in his heart, looking at the slightly chubby guy in front of him, he really wanted to kick him out of the field, but reality didn't allow it.

"Man, are you playing for the first time? Why are you so desperate? Davis looked depressedly at the newcomer in front of him who was going around faster every time he went around, you guy is too playful, do I have a grudge against you?

It's just the regular season, and although it's the most basic attitude to be serious between offense and defense, it's the first time he's seen an opponent who feels like he gritted his teeth in every detail.

Although it's not wrong to face the game positively, but there are too many games in a season, and I can't stand playing iron man like this every day, I really don't know what this guy in front of me thinks.

"There is no enmity, and you are kind to me." Chen Lei shook his head.

"Grace? What en? Listening to Chen Lei's words, Davis couldn't help but think of the thank you a few seconds ago, what did he help him?

"Because you ......" Chen Lei shut up and didn't talk to Davis anymore, because he found that Collison, who controlled the ball outside the three-point line, pushed the ball towards him, and he couldn't wait to look up to the sky and let out a long roar when he saw the orange sphere that was getting closer and closer.

Here's your chance!
