Chapter 544: Crowned First in the Alliance

Before the start of the preseason of the new season, Hongxin Erke, with the help of Li Kaiming, finally won the two stars of Kawhi Leonard and Klay Thompson at the same time, making them the spokesperson of Hongxin Erke.

Of course, how the contract between these two people was negotiated, that is, Jiang Shan's work, and Li Kaiming was only responsible for matchmaking in the middle.

Hongxin Erke now has Li Kaiming, the trump card spokesperson, and the other stars negotiate with the waist pole straight, if the previous Hongxin Erke, only to hand over the signed shoe contract, these two guys will not take a look.

But now it's different, even though Kawhi Leonard and Klay Thompson are already the new stars in the league, they still can't get a signed shoe contract here at Hongxin Erke, and can only endorse a branch sneaker series.

In this way, starting from this season, the players of the Hongxin Erke family in the NbA league have also expanded from Li Kaiming's one bare-bones commander to 3 people.

As time goes by, this family will definitely get bigger and bigger, until it fights against Naik and King Adi.

After a two-month off-season, the new season is about to begin, and the Emerica sports media are the first to wake up, releasing season previews of each team, as well as player rankings for the new season, to build momentum for the new season.

Emerica's No. 1 sports media outlet, ESpN, grabbed a chance to start and was the first to announce their rankings for the new season.

Li Kaiming has been in the regular season mVp + finals mVp for two consecutive years, and deservedly ranked first in the ESpN rankings.

After all, it is the most authoritative sports media in Emerica, and if he still talks nonsense with his eyes open this season, it will not be a matter of belittling Li Kaiming, and it will cause immeasurable losses to the influence of the media itself.

CBS cbS also ranked Li Kaiming first in their rankings, which also included SLAm Slam Dunk Magazine, Fox Sports, Ranker, Sports Illustrated SI, Grandstand Sports bR, tA Sports and many other mainstream sports media......

In other words, after Li Kaiming entered the league for the third year and won the championship for two consecutive years, he finally convinced several media and basketball commentators in Emerika's homeland, and stood at the top of the NbA league with an absolute height.

Whether others admit it or not, he is now the first person in the alliance!

However, in the follow-up official odds to win the championship, there was a moth again.

The defending Washington Wizards are only in third place at +750 odds to win the title.

And the team in first place is the Heat Big Three, which has been sent to fish by the Wizards for two consecutive seasons, with a championship odds of +220.

In second place is the Oklahoma City Thunder with +550 odds to win the championship.

I don't know who gave this kind of odds to win the championship, or is the bookmaker here to do charity? was slapped in the face for two consecutive seasons, and he was still optimistic about the Heat, but it seems that there are still too many fools, so that the bookmaker can make money.

Team Media Day, this time, the Wizards released more photos of Li Kaiming, Leonard and Thompson, the message to be conveyed is very obvious, the Wizards will undoubtedly revolve around these three people in the future, these three are the core of the Wizards!

During the interview, a reporter also asked how Sanders would arrange the team's tactics in the new season, and Sanders was also very sophisticated.

'We have a lot of young guys in the team, there are also some experienced players, and each of them can contribute to the team with their strengths, so what I have to do is to watch the situation on the field, I will play whoever is needed, if the team needs energy, I will increase the time of the young players, if the team needs to stabilize the situation, then I will be biased towards the veteran players, the NbA game is changing quickly, nothing is static......"

A reporter asked about Li Kaiming's offseason experience in China, and Li Kaiming answered with high emotional intelligence.

"China has a population of 1.3 billion, maybe there are more than these now, so there must be a large number of basketball geniuses buried in China, I just want to help my country, dig out these talents, so that they can receive professional training as soon as possible, the rise of Chinese basketball has never relied on one person, but on the efforts of each generation, I just made a start."

"Lee, you have a chance to win three consecutive championships in the new season, do you have any special expectations for this achievement?"

"Of course, three wins in a row is a cool achievement, and every one of the great teams in history has won three in a row, the Celtics, the Lakers, the Bulls, etc...... Triple wins are the hallmark of a great team and we certainly want to be great. ”

"What about you personally? Do you have anything to look forward to? You've won the regular season mVp for two consecutive seasons, and as your team builds a dynasty, you have a chance to become the second player in NbA history to win three consecutive regular season mVps. ”

"Oh man, can I say I don't care about such an honor? Every player wants to get the mVp trophy and the mVp voice, and if I say now that I'm not interested in the mVp, people won't think I'm being modest, they'll just think I'm hypocritical. I'm not a hypocrite, and as you just said, it's a record for NbA, and I'll be the second person to get triple mVp, and if I get the chance, I'd certainly like to give it a try! ”

The first game of the preseason is on the road against the Brooklyn Nets.

After relocating to New York, the Nets went from being a 10,000-year-old team with a bad draft pick to a retirement home and shelter for the biggest names in the world.

From Deron Williams at the beginning, to Joe Johnson later, he also traded Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett from the Celtics this season.

As a result, the Nets formed the terrifying Nets triumvirate of Johnson, Pierce and Garnett in the 13-14 season, and it would have been even more terrifying if they had formed such a lineup five years earlier.

Pre-season is all about coaches practicing tactics and players adapting to high-intensity plays.

So after coming up, Li Kaiming and other starting lineups were replaced after only playing for about 13 minutes, and in the following time, Li Kaiming and his teammates were bored watching the game while gnawing on their fingernails.

The Wizards, who did not have a starter, still played according to the Nets in the rotation stage, and the Nets also came out to show their faces in order to reduce the consumption of the Big Three.

So the Wizards easily won their preseason opener on the road.

In the next 6 preseason games, Sanders simply did not let the starters play, and played all the preseason games purely as a substitute, and finally played a 4-3 record, with a winning rate of more than half, barely okay.

It is worth mentioning that the third opponent of the preseason is none other than the Miami Heat.

The Heat team seems to be playing this game with resentment, a preseason game is like a regular season, in addition to Wade's absence due to a knee injury, James and Bosh both played more than 30 minutes, and finally slaughtered the Wizards' bench at the American Airlines Center with a 40-point difference, and avenged the elimination of two consecutive seasons!

However, Sanders and Li Kaiming and others have nothing to say about this.

You play, the harder you play now, the more cool you will be in the official season and the playoffs!

The time came to October 30th, this day of NbA is particularly lively, although it is the second day of the regular season of the new season, but today there are 14 games, that is to say, except for the two teams, the remaining 28 teams all have games, so it is a happier moment for NbA fans.

The Wizards arrived in Detroit early on a special plane for 7:30 p.m. when they were to face the Pistons, the season's opener at Auburn Hills Palace.

The Pistons' lineup is also very competitive at first glance.

Starting line-up: Chauncey Billups, Josh Smith, Wilburnham, Andre Drummond and Greg Monroe.

I don't know if Pistons head coach Morris Cheeks thinks the Wizards' interior threat is bigger, so he deliberately put a double tower on the starting lineup to try to limit Li Kaiming and Bradge.

But after the game started, Li Kaiming made the unbelievable Cheeks recognize the reality.

What twin towers do you have, what twin towers do I have?

In front of Li Kaiming's perverted speed insider, whether it is Drummond or Monroe, they are like a fool, unable to keep up with the speed at all.

What's more, Li Kaiming also has the No. 1 shooting skill in the league today, and the Pistons have been continuously changed by him, so that he can't find his way home, and he has also been bukkake for several three-pointers.

However, the Pistons also have an old friend of Li Kaiming, Kyle Singrad, the Duke player who played Li Kaiming in the NcAA finals that year, is sitting on the Pistons' bench at this time.

Although he was drafted by the Pistons with the 33rd pick in 2011, he didn't make it to the NbA until last season, averaging 8 points and 4 rebounds per game in his rookie season and being named to the second team in the rookie season.

But one of the two people who competed on the same pitch was a rookie and could only wave a towel on the bench.

And the other one has already achieved fame, standing at a height that he can't even see on tiptoe......

Life is sometimes so impermanent.

Those who win can always win, while those who lose lose everywhere.

At this time, Singler, who was sitting on the bench, looked at Li Kaiming, who was like a big demon on the field, and suddenly felt infinite sadness and powerlessness in his heart!

Of course, Li Kaiming can send Singel an unforgettable defeat in the NcAA final, and he can also sprinkle a handful of salt on his wound tonight!

At the end of the opening game, the Washington Wizards won the Detroit Pistons on the road without any suspense, and the Pistons did not close the gap to double digits except for the first five minutes of the game.

Li Kaiming played 30 minutes, shooting 11-of-19 from the field, including 3-of-5 three-pointers and 6-of-6 from the free-throw line, with 31 points, 14 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals.

Leonard scored 18 points, 6 rebounds and 3 steals in the game, and at the same time kept the opposing Pistons small forward directly to a clean sheet, preventing the latter from being 0 of 7 in the game, and the super-evolved robot has shown its power!

Thompson's state is also extremely hot, hitting 5 three-pointers and scoring 21 points, and the Wizards' own Big Three also have a faint prototype!
