This Forward is Not Serious

On the way to the hotel, Ross's words changed.

He told Lin Ying some interesting experiences of his previous trips to China.

The quiet Rose is suddenly not quiet, so there is only one possibility.

He is really happy now.

Also, it is easy to understand.

This is a cultural difference.

In the Western world, the word "interest" is more important, while the Chinese side pays more attention to emotion.

Especially a supergiant like Ross who fell due to injury can inspire their sympathy in their bones.

McGrady is like this, and even more so for Rose, who got the MVP in his rookie season.

But Ross doesn't know.

From what he communicated with Lin Ying on the plane, he could feel that he was not confident and worried about this trip to China.

Now everything is different from what he expected, and even better than he expected.

Looking at Ross, who still had vicissitudes on his face, but couldn't hide his smile under the vicissitudes, Lin Ying suddenly felt that this China competition was a good thing for him.

Of course, the same goes for the Nets.

…

The next day, the China game between the Nets and the Knicks kicked off at the Mercedes-Benz Center in Shanghai.

The venue was packed. Although the summer was almost over, the enthusiasm of the fans was still blowing like a heat wave.

The domestic movie stars in the front row also added a lot of highlights to the game.

That is, among these movie stars, there are Swift and Dickel in them.

Although Dickel has not yet married Durant, it will not be too far according to the current rhythm. This is the "wives" of the Nets.

During the warm-up before the game, the live footage kept showing the players on the field.

When it was given to Ross, there was a burst of cheers from the scene.

Because Ross suddenly changed his look!

He permed his long hair into mohawk and shaved off his beard!

The whole person seems to be ten years younger all of a sudden!

This wave belongs to Reverse Adams!

The warm-up of the two teams was over, and the game started soon.

The Nets' starting lineup is the same as last season, Bradley, Ariza, Durant, Lin Ying, Jokic.

As previously predicted by fans, Rose came to the Nets to play the role of the sixth man.

Surprisingly, the Knicks played back and forth with the Nets in the opening game.

It's not that the Nets released water, although Lin Ying and Durant did test their training results through the preseason, and they made more shots on the outside.

But more importantly, the Knicks are a bit reborn.

At this point, you have to admit one thing.

Although he has never won a championship in his career, Chris Paul has the ability to guarantee the absolute minimum of a team.

Even the Knicks, who have reached the point where "the mud can't support the wall" in the past two years, he can "turn corruption into magic".

Because from the history that Lin Ying knows, this Knicks is very similar to history. The biggest difference is that the main point guard has changed from Rose to Paul.

Too bad Knicks fans didn't get to see it with their own eyes, otherwise they would have been excited.

At about 9 minutes into the first quarter, the score was 26-20, and the Nets were only 6 points ahead of the Knicks.

At this time, both sides began to replace the substitutes one after another.

On the Knicks side, Brandon Jennings, Justin Holiday, Lance Thomas, Guillermo Hernangomez, Kyle O'Quinn.

On the Nets side, Rose, Caruso, Johnson, Zhou Qi, and Nene.

Curry Jr. and West didn't fight tonight, sitting on the sidelines watching the play in suits.

When Zhou Qi played here, the fans immediately burst into cheers.

Not long after the Olympic Games, fans still remember the highlight moment of his big hat Irving.

And it is worth mentioning that this is Lu's first game as the Nets coach, and he is bold enough to employ people. Zhou Qi is arranged for rotation in the first game.

It's only a preseason game, but this is his chance.

Zhou Qi also seems eager to try, and the experience of the Olympic Games has greatly improved his self-confidence.

He is ready!

On the Knicks' offense, Jennings' shot to the basket was interrupted by Rose's jump.

"when!"

In front of the best fans, he showed the highest fighting spirit right from the start.

Nene took off the defensive rebound and gave it to Rose.

Rose moved forward quickly with the ball.

He's very fast, and he breaks through the two defenses in a blink of an eye, and for a moment you feel like he's back to before the injury.

The Knicks' back-to-back speed is clearly a problem.

After all, Paul has just arrived at the Knicks. He can lead the Knicks' starting lineup when he is on the court, but he can't give much support off the court now.

Then the fans saw Ross galloping from the backcourt to the frontcourt, and then the flying wiper scored two points.

The fans cheered instantly.

Although it is a China game, it is also another home for the Nets.

And the scene at the airport also shows that there are still many fans in China who like Ross.

So at this moment, the cheers of the fans were deafening.

Nene resisted Hernangomez's low post attack in the interior.

The Knicks are now playing all kinds of singles on the court.

At this time, Zhou Qi suffered from a thin body, and was taken off the offensive rebound by O'Quinn.

But just when O'Quinn got up to buckle.

"Snapped!"

He also underestimated Zhou Qi's wingspan and reaction speed, and the ball in his hand was covered by Zhou Qi with a slap!

Block caps, the only thing Zhou Qi can do now is to block caps, but he blocked them!

Johnson had recovered to the basket at this time, and quickly won the defensive rebound.

These two rounds, the Nets have defended.

But this time there was a very passionate scene on the sidelines.

Paul couldn't sit still off the court, got up and waved and shouted on the sidelines to remind his teammates to retreat.

You can say that Paul is 58, or you can say that he always loses the chain at critical moments, but there is one thing that can't be black, his desire to win the game.

It's just a preseason game, but he's more serious than all the other teammates.

That is, Anthony is watching this scene behind and laughing.

He couldn't understand why Paul was so serious in a preseason game.

However, Paul's behavior still works, and the Knicks' defense is clearly in place this time.

This time, even off the court, Paul gave this team a change.

The two sides entered a positional battle.

Paul continued to command from the sidelines, and he did what Hornacek should do off the court.

But you have to admit that a top point guard understands the game.

The ball was finally given to Rose, and the problem could only be solved by personal ability.

He was guarded by Holiday, also known as Big Holiday.

Although he ran and lost later than Jrue Holiday, he was the oldest of the three brothers.

This is a 3d embryo with excellent wingspan.

And although he has never made a name for himself, he has played for so many years and has a lot of defensive experience.

At this time, the defense against Ross is taking a big step back to defend. This is to know that Ross is not good at shooting.

Rose made an action to accelerate the breakthrough, but the next second he suddenly closed the ball, and then opened directly from the three-point line!

This choice can be said to be unexpected, and it was too late for Da Huo Ledi to react, and the later jumping was not to interfere, but to be a pure background board.

"Backboard!"

Paul then shouted from the sidelines.

"Shh!"

This time, however, his judgment was also skewed.

It's no wonder that St. Paul's is not strong, it is true that he is the same as the big Holiday, who can't think of Ross to be sure of the three points!

You must know that when he was still on the Bulls, Rose also made a lot of three-pointers. Under the trend of three-pointers, he averaged more than 5 shots per game at most in one season.

But the result is that his hit rate is less than 30%.

But just this ball just now, obviously doesn't look like a 30% player's three-pointer level.

Nash's shooting in training is still very good!

Of course, a ball is not enough to explain the problem, and Rose is still too early to really develop a shot.

But at least a very good start.

…

After the first preseason game, the Nets defeated the Knicks 106-92.

The score looked very close, but the main players of both sides only played halftime, and more time was played by the substitutes.

By the end of the quarter, there were even bench players and two-way players playing.

Having more two-way players this year is a good thing for the team, but there are more things that the coach needs to examine.

Rose played well in his preseason debut for the Nets, playing 20 minutes and contributing 15 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists.

Zhou Qi's words played for 12 minutes and contributed 7 points, 2 rebounds and 3 blocks.

His strengths and weaknesses are obvious now. He is above the NBA level in blocking shots, has a bit of pie-eating ability, and even made a three-pointer, but the confrontation is very poor.

If the Nets train him in the future, they will definitely work **** this aspect.

After the game, the players took a shower in the locker room, the atmosphere was very happy.

For most of them, the China game is like traveling abroad, which is more fun than the game.

It's not that they're already talking about where to play at night.

"Don't stay out on the street too late, I'm not worried about your safety, this place is safer than anywhere in the world, I'm worried that you are getting fat, because there is too much food to eat on the street at night. already."

This guy Jokic traveled with China last time and acted as a master for them. He didn't forget to pat his stomach when he spoke.

Like that, it's like giving them a warning.

Lin Ying smiled and shook his head, this guy is absolutely amazing.

It was at this moment that Ross suddenly smiled and sat beside Lin Ying.

It turned out that he was going to attend a fan meeting tomorrow, and he hoped that Lin Ying would attend as a guest.

Because it was Adi's activity, he was a little embarrassed when he said it.

However, Lin Ying readily agreed.

It is my duty to help Rose's mental health!

Judging from the performance on the court today, after Rose's mentality has been adjusted, it is no problem to play a sixth man.

That would be strategic in the future against the Warriors.

The next day, Lin Ying followed Ross to the press conference.

There were not many reporters on the scene.

Fans did not give up Rose because of his declining form, and the media naturally did not reduce their attention to him.

The reason is very simple, Ross has always been a hot product in domestic jerseys and shoes.

And this wave of transfers to the Nets, not to mention the performance of the court, the market perspective is that a big giant joins the Nets and explodes.

Coupled with the good performance of the preseason debut, this kind of treatment is completely expected.

Then, when Lin Ying appeared in the guest seat, it caused a commotion from the reporters.

They didn't expect Lin Ying to appear here in advance.

Seeing this situation, Lin Ying communicated with Ross for a while, and sat down first.

He was invited by Ross, presumably just to make a scene, but he didn't want to do things like overwhelm the guest.

Lin Ying arrived off the stage, and the reporters below turned their attention to Ross sitting on the stage.

One stage, three stools, one Ross, one host, and one empty.

The meeting will also start soon.

At the beginning, it was all a matter of procedures, how was it going to China this time, how did you perform in the first preseason game, what do you want to say and so on.

Rose is not very good at this, at least compared to James is a sky and an underground.

But in his mouth, the word that he said the most was thanks.

He is grateful for all that he has experienced in China.

Just as the first stage of the meeting was about to end, the host signaled all the people on the scene to watch the big screen.

When the lights dimmed, a video started playing on the big screen.

It was a vcr that brought together what many Chinese Ross fans wanted to say, and then released them together.

…

The video continued, but Ross was already in tears.

The boy doesn't shed tears easily, but it's just before he gets emotional.
