That afternoon, during the pre-game press conference, James discussed with his coach and did not allow Wang Yi to attend.
Wang Yi must be a little unhappy because of Zhou Zhi's incident.
If you are provoked by reporters with malicious intentions at a press conference, something might happen.
As a player, the best way to respond to doubts is to perform well enough on the court.
Today's press conference was also very lively.
Ball and Ingram are both former Lakers players. The Lakers used them, plus other costs, to exchange for the thick-eyebrow brother from the Pelicans.
So these two people have deep resentment towards the Lakers.
He gets excited when he beats the Lakers.
Coupled with thick eyebrows and fighting against the old master;
Zion versus James;
Unselected for best game of the week and elected best of the week...
This series of factors makes this game full of highlights.
In the Tencent NBA live broadcast room, today’s female anchor is Wang Xiaoqi.
The host is Duan Ran.
The guest commentator is still Yang Yi.
Yang Yi's employees account for almost half of Tencent NBA, so he comes to commentate more often.
At the same time, Tencent NBA also had a dream collaboration with Deyun Club today and invited Zhang Jiuling.
What's even more surprising is that he came to explain wearing a gray-white coat.
It's also interesting.
Duan Ran first made an opening statement, and then directed the topic to Zhang Jiuling:
"Jiuling, long time no see. It must have been more than a year since the last explanation, right? Why haven't you been here to explain for more than a year?"
Zhang Jiuling said calmly: "The money has not been paid in full."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Several people laughed.
As expected of someone who talks about cross talk, he is a burden once he opens his mouth.
Yang Yi once studied storytelling and was very interested in cross talk, which is also a traditional culture.
He continued: "It seems there is some shady story here."
Zhang Jiuling is still very calm:
"The service tenet of our Deyun Club is to have no shady stories and no bad intentions."
Yang Yi: "Isn't your service tenet non-refundable?"
Zhang Jiuling waved his hand: "The purpose of Deyun Society can change as you wish. It can be whatever you want. However, there is no shady and no Deyun. This is the general outline of all service purposes."
Everyone laughed again.
After a while, Duan Ran brought the topic to today's game:
"Today's game, I believe everyone knows, is very important to Wang Yi and even to the entire Chinese fans."
Yang Yi nodded: "Leaving aside the arrogance of the football dad, in terms of Best of the Week, Wang Yi has to prove to those commentators and reporters how poor their vision is and how deep their prejudice is.
"
Zhang Jiuling no longer joked, but his face became serious:
"We all know that Wang Yi carries the expectations of 1.4 billion Chinese people. This burden is very heavy for him. But I still hope that he will try his best to win today's game. Let those who are biased
Commentators, reporters and fans, take a look, the Chinese can also dominate the NBA!"
…
Pelicans home court: Smoothie King Center.
When Wang Yi walked out of the tunnel with the Lakers, boos erupted from the crowd.
Their boos were directed at the thick eyebrows and at Wang Yi.
Thick Eyebrow was once their trump card here, but he ended up going to the Lakers.
To them, this is defection.
In the past, this would have led to the gallows.
As for Wang Yi, they were even more unhappy.
What qualifications does a Chinese have to compete with Zion for the Best of the Week?
James patted his thick-browed chest.
The thick eyebrow nodded heavily: "Don't worry, since the first year I went to the Lakers, you have taught me how to fight against my old boss."
James patted Wang Yi's chest again.
Wang Yi didn't speak, just looked at Zion on the other end of the court.
His eyes were full of fighting spirit.
During the warm-up before the game, Wang Yi kept shooting three-pointers.
10 hits in a row.
This shows his attitude today - determined to win!
Caruso kept feeding Wang Yi the ball.
As Wang Yi's first true friend after coming to the Lakers, he firmly supports Wang Yi.
On the other side of the court, Zion missed the show with a dunk.
Big windmill, turning 360 degrees, changing hands under the crotch...
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that a 129kg fat man could jump so high.
It is said that his jumping height is 117 centimeters, which is comparable to the top dunkers in history.
Zion is also trying to prove that he is worthy of being the best player of the week today.
In addition, the team owner Jordan is sitting on the sidelines, so he is naturally working hard to win this game.
Every time Zion scores a goal, the audience cheers loudly.
"Oh! Zion!"
"Thanos!"
"Flying Tiger!"
When Zion was in high school and college, his nickname was Thanos.
His performance is indeed worthy of the nickname Thanos.
In comparison, Wang Yi, who was silently shooting three-pointers at the other end of the court, seemed much ordinary.
"This Chinese guy is actually trying to compete with Thanos for Best of the Week. It's so ridiculous!"
"If Thanos snaps his fingers, half of all living things in the NBA will be destroyed. A mere yellow-skinned rat is simply overestimating his capabilities."
"Thanos, go ahead and kick that Chinese guy's butt and beat up the old king."
However, some people noticed something was wrong.
"How many three-pointers did that Chinese guy score in a row? Eight? Or ten?"
"I've counted it, and it's the 15th one now."
When the fans around him heard this, they all felt shocked.
"Is this guy a shooting machine? He's just a freak."
"I can only shoot three-pointers and don't dare to fight at all. If you have the ability to act like a real man, fight Thanos in the paint. You will be wiped out in a matter of minutes!"
Wang Yi heard these boos and insults, but remained indifferent.
Three-pointers were scored one after another, like javelins, tearing apart the net with precision.
Finally, after more than ten minutes, the warm-up was over.
The main lineups of both sides came on stage.
There is no change in the starting lineup of the Lakers. It is still Wang Yi, James, Nong Mei, Zhuang Shen and Pope.
The defense of this lineup is quite impressive.
Wang Yi, Thick Eyebrow and Pope all have outstanding single defense capabilities.
James can also contribute to the league's top defense when needed.
Although Zhuang Shen's frame protection is not that strong, his defensive rebounding is considered to be the league's top level.
Pelicans lineup:
Point guard: ball brother Ball;
Shooting guard: Bloody Bledsoe;
Small forward: Ingram;
Preface: Zion;
Center: Aquaman Adams.
Among them, Xuebu was also selected to the All-Defensive First Team and Second Team.
Of course, his addition did not inject much energy into the Pelicans' defensive end.
The Pelicans' defense is still a disaster.
The three games we won last week all relied on offense to defeat our opponents.
Vogel is very relieved about such an opponent.
Today's game is solid.
The moment the players from both sides stepped onto the court, the system's voice came from Wang Yi's mind:
【Please sign in】
"Sign in."
[Sign in successfully]
[Sign-in reward: God-level waist and abdominal strength experience card]
"Use experience card."
Wang Yi did not hesitate.
He won't hold anything back in this game.
He had Kobe's beautiful jump shot before, but he always felt a little uncomfortable when shooting.
Because his waist and abdominal strength does not support him to make a complete and picturesque jump shot, and those picturesque shots after aerial confrontation and aerial avoidance.
But now that I have god-level waist and abdominal strength, the problem is easily solved.
In addition, there is still one minute left for the ghost-hand steal experience card from the previous game.
Chapter completed!
