"Young, I've been laid off by the Spurs!"

When he heard the news from his friend Jermichael Green on the phone to congratulate him on his first game victory, Li Yang was not too surprised. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Spurs are definitely not a team that can stay casually, Popovich attaches great importance to the player's specialty in a certain aspect, and obviously, Jermichael Green has not shown such a specialty now, and there is a very important reason that the Spurs' lineup this season is relatively stable, and there is indeed no vacancy for Jermichael Green.

"Jermichael, don't be discouraged, I've been with the Spurs, they're very strict with their players, being cut by the Spurs doesn't mean you can't be in the NBA, you're doing great in Spurs training camp, you can try to get in touch with other teams. ”

Hearing that Jermichael, who had always been grinning, was a little depressed at this time, Li Yang comforted the other party and said.

"How could I be discouraged. Jermichael Green's voice became bright again, "My agent has started to contact other teams, and I believe it won't be long before I can find another NBA team." ”

When Jermichael Green said this, he didn't wait for Li Yang to speak, and then picked up like a machine gun: "But until then, I may choose to stay with the Austin Bulls to improve myself, the Spurs' coaching staff has given me some advice, and I am ready to do some targeted training." ”

Li Yang has become accustomed to Jermichael Green's style of speaking, and after hearing that his friend was not discouraged, he immediately encouraged: "Jermichael, come on, you have to believe that you can definitely get a job in the NBA." ”

"Of course, I've always believed in that, and I'm sure that one day I'll be able to get a contract from the NBA like you did. Jermichael said confidently, "Young, it's a shame that if you hadn't left San Donigo, we would have been able to be teammates for another month in Spurs' training camp." ”

"Oh no, Jermichael, I don't regret it at all, I'm so glad I don't have to listen to all the gossip every day. Li Yang said teasingly at this time.

"Yang, it's actually a very interesting thing, oh yes, Yang I haven't heard much about you and Frida lately, you ......"

Feeling the fire of gossip that was about to ignite in Jermichael, Li Yang immediately interrupted and said, "Jermichael, I'm going to board the plane, goodbye!"

However, Li Yang really didn't fool Jemichael, he did have to register, starting from Boston, he needs to lead the team to the first away game of the new season.

"Good luck, Jermichael!"

At the moment of stepping on the plane, Li Yang secretly sent blessings to his friend in his heart.

For Jermichael, Li Yang really can't help much for the time being except blessings, just like Hassan Whiteside now, although Li Yang let Whiteside come to Boston, and finally let Whiteside successfully stay with the Celtics, but Whiteside still needs to rely on himself to enter the team's rotation.

This is the NBA, and if you want to get a foothold here, you need to make yourself better.

Even Li Yang, who has successfully established himself in the NBA, still needs to prove himself.

The official start of the regular season attracted the attention of the fans, and Li Yang naturally attracted a lot of attention in the first game, and people paid attention to Li Yang's performance in the first game, and paid more attention to whether Li Yang could continue to perform well.

One game is not enough to tell the story, that's the opinion of most people, and they will only recognize it when Li Yang's excellent performance continues, so the Celtics' second game will be no less focused than the first.

The Celtics need to fly to Toronto to challenge the Raptors in Game 2, the Raptors not only finished third in the East last season, but unlike the Mavericks, they didn't make much adjustments in the summer, and the general perception in the NBA is that teams that haven't undergone major changes in the summer will be more consistent after the start of the game.

Because Pacers star Paul George was injured in the summer, the Raptors are considered the second-strongest team in the East for the new season, so it is widely believed that playing against the Raptors will be a big challenge for the Celtics.

The Raptors had just beaten the Hawks in their previous game, and they were a treat for the Celtics who came to their home court to challenge.

'It's not that we're disrespectful, but we're confident enough to win this game because they won't have the same easy chances as they did last time and we're going to seal their passes!'

In a pre-game interview, Raptors star DeMar DeRozan said with confidence.

Raptors head coach Dwyane Casey is a defensive-minded coach who deliberately analyzed the Celtics' previous game before the game and made a targeted arrangement for this game, which is an important reason why DeRozan believes that he can win the game through defense.

Of course, DeRozan is not most proud of the team's defense, but his own attack, and he made no secret of his desire to play against Li Yang in this game before the game.

"Of course, if Celtic's attackers are going to play more of their attacking options, that's what I'd like to see because I'm going to have more shots in the next game, and I think that matchup will show who is the better scorer. ”

The match hasn't started yet, but Li Yang has already felt the attitude of his opponent from various reports in the news.

"I'll do what I need to do to win, if the team needs my playmaking to win, I'll be a passer, if the team needs me to score to win, then I'll ...... Score!"

Li Yang responded to DeRozan's remarks in a pre-game interview, and such a response made Li Yang's fans full of expectations.

With the expectation of fans, Li Yang appeared with his teammates at the Raptors' home stadium, Air Canada Center Arena.

After the warm-up and appearances, the starters of both teams came to the midfield.

The home team's Raptors started inside with Tyler Hansbrough and Patrick Patterson, and the three outside players were Terrence Rose, DeMar DeRozan, and Kyle Lowry.

The Celtics, who are playing away, continued the lineup from the previous game, Salinger, Jeff Green, Li Yang, Bradley, Smart.
