This Forward is Not Serious

"Vince, I'm going to start you in the first game of the preseason."

In the locker room, after a day of training, Lu came over to find Carter and said in front of the other players.

About Carter's remarks, Lu will definitely hear some of it. He is not an old guy like Sloan, he is the young marshal.

And he really pays attention to those details and knows how to make the players feel comfortable.

Because this is equivalent to the Nets showing attitude, but the preseason game is not so important.

"Coach, thank you, but we're the focus of the league and they'll be watching us even in the preseason, so I'll do what I can."

Carter was very sincere and declined Lu directly.

This wave of patterns was full, and Lu could also see that Carter was thinking in his heart, not pretending.

However, following Carter's words, Lu also emphasized to everyone the game that is about to start.

"Although it is a pre-season, we must pay attention, we are the focus, and no mistakes are allowed."

The public enemy of the league, and the stunt of Kobe's comeback, it is difficult for the Nets to not be noticed this season.

The Nets' first preseason game was an overseas game.

But this time it's not China, it's going to Canada, Vancouver.

Vancouver used to be the home of the Grizzlies before the Grizzlies moved to Memphis, and the basketball market here quickly slumped.

Tatum's operation is to continue to expand the Canadian basketball market.

After all, Canada is, in a sense, a province of the United States, and there is no more convenient place to develop a market.

In Canada in October, the weather has been a little cold.

However, when the Nets and Menglong appeared in Vancouver, the enthusiasm of the Vancouver fans completely overshadowed the cooler weather.

As the only NBA team in Canada, the Menglongs have always been popular. The introduction of Serge Ibaka this season has taken it to a new level. Canadian fans are waiting to see it.

And this time the opponent is directly the most powerful and most popular Nets team in the league.

The encounter between the two teams in North America may not be a big deal, but in Canada, this is really Mars hitting the earth.

Even if he's just a preseason game.

But just because it's a preseason, fans can get a sneak peek!

The General Motors Arena, which has not hosted a basketball game for a long time, is once again flooded with a large number of basketball fans.

In fact, the Vancouver sports market itself is not small. When the team was first established, the attendance rate of the arena was very high.

It’s just that the team came last year after year, and even made a noise about the absurd story that Francis refused to come to the team to report.

But there is something called feelings, just like the men's basketball in history, although you know it is not very good now, but he has been brilliant, you will still love him.

The members of the Nets team are also eager to try, and most of the Nets players have the kind of vision that Lin Ying had before.

During the pre-match training, there were already quite a lot of fans at the scene.

When Lin Ying and most of the people came to the arena, they were shocked by the enthusiasm of the fans.

It's not that they don't see much, but it's surprising to see such a scene in a city that hasn't had a basketball game for many years.

They were changing clothes in the locker room in front of them, and they came to the training ground at different times. When they came out, they saw Tucker signing autographs for the fans there.

Tucker played for the Menglong team for two years. He was with the Menglong team last season. Although he is not a star player, he plays hard and is very popular among Canadian fans.

But when Lin Ying and the others came out, the fans over there suddenly became restless, and then rushed towards them like crazy.

It's not Lin Ying, nor Durant, nor Kobe, but... Carter!

Like ESPN, a lot of people may have forgotten about Carter.

But this is Toronto, Carter's "home"!

Although the former "UFO" is old, the glory he created at the time is still there.

And if you go to Toronto, fans may not have such a big reaction. After all, Carter is still playing in the NBA and often goes to Toronto to play.

But this time in Vancouver, one can imagine how excited the Canadian fans here are.

Just like some people on social media said, how many of them grew up watching "Uncle Carter" dunk!

Carter didn't seem to expect that the fans would be so enthusiastic. He was surprised at first, and he took a photo with the fans and signed autographs with his uncle's smile.

His character is still very approachable, especially when he gets older, he really looks like an uncle.

Lin Ying, Durant and Kobe glanced at each other, and then all three laughed in unison.

It is not accidental that the Nets will go to Canada to play overseas games, because Carter decided to join the Nets in July, and the schedule only came out in September.

It can only be said that with the longer and longer in charge, Tatum has become more and more handy in these aspects.

And it couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the fans. Carter also performed a few dunks for them after signing the autograph and taking a photo.

Among them, there is a beautiful 360 ° turn dunk.

Although it is not so attractive because of the height, he can really buckle!

Lin Ying even showed a strange look in his eyes.

Carter and Kobe Bryant dunked before, it was after training, the body has fully opened.

But now, it's a direct deduction without a warm-up at all.

Don't look at the buckle is not particularly good, but it shows that Carter's current physical condition is really not bad.

Others are the second spring and the third spring. Carter is Changchun!

In addition to being surprised, Lin Ying naturally felt happy.

Basketball is still a team sport, and my teammates are strong.

Of course, the GM Arena was full, and the crowded scene was much more lively than the previous warm-up.

In addition, many children came to the scene to watch the ball, and that scene was really called a family fun.

Because there is an opening ceremony at the overseas game, fans are looking forward to seeing Carter at the opening ceremony.

Unfortunately, their expectations were not fulfilled, and Carter did not appear in the Nets' starting lineup.

This makes some fans somewhat regretful.

After the opening ceremony, the starters of both sides came on stage one after another (two games, the first for the Nets at home).

Menglong: Lowry, DeRozan, Siakam, Ibaka, Valanciunas.

The starting lineup is exactly the same as ESPN previously predicted.

Nets: Rose, Kobe, Durant, Lin Ying, Jokic.

The Nets are also quite face-saving, and they start five All-Stars directly!

This wave of debut directly made the fans on the scene feel that there was an inexplicable surging of blood in their hearts.

Yes, they really saw an All-Star team!

Although the five people here are not all at the peak, nor can they all be at the peak, but looking at the lineup in front of them, it is still inexplicably exciting!

The game starts soon.

With the cheers of the fans on the scene, Jokic won Valanciunas by jumping, giving the Nets the opportunity to take the lead in attacking.

On the first attack of the Nets, they gave the ball to Kobe Bryant at a high position, and then pulled it away directly.

To say that in this league, no one has simpler tactics than Lue, and of course, no one needs more running-in than the Nets.

Especially for players like Kobe Bryant, you love singles, just right, I like to give the ball to star players.

DeRozan, Kobe's super fan, is defending against Kobe.

This wave of confrontation between the two is also a classic of the century.

Of course, in the eyes of the fans, there is more expectation.

They want to know how much strength Kobe Bryant can have in his comeback this time.

Kobe glanced at the Menglong team's intention to not help defense, turned around and leaned on DeRozan, then turned his back.

At the moment when Kobe started to back fight, the genes of many fans on the scene moved.

The words "Maba.out" are still in my ears, but Kobe, he is really back!

Back, turn, step, feint, turn, lean back!

Still the familiar Black Mamba, or the familiar footsteps.

Although, this pace does not seem to be so fast.

DeRozan, young and strong, flew straight up.

Kobe's shot was seriously disturbed.

"when!"

Kobe Bryant's first shot ended with a strike!

There was also a commotion at the scene.

Although Kobe is ironclad, it looks very normal before you put it.

But seeing Kobe Bryant return at this moment, the fans still hope that he can score in their hearts.

So, I still feel a little regretful that it didn't work out.

However, in the fight for the basket, Jokic squeezed Valanciunas away with his big butt, took off the offensive rebound, and then threw his hand back to Kobe.

This time Kobe's chance to catch the ball was obviously better than the one just now, and he also shot decisively after catching the ball.

DeRozan struggled to pounce on the distraction, but it was still a little late.

"when!"

It's a pity that the ball still didn't make it!

Training and competition are two different things.

Kobe Bryant retired without training for half a year. His body's growth is only one aspect, and it is more about the body's reaction.

The kind of spring that has been tightened for twenty years, suddenly loosened, and you want to twist it back again, it is definitely not as easy as it seems on the surface.

This time, Valanciunas stuck Jokic, and Ibaka shrank back to the inside and jumped high to grab a defensive rebound.

The Nets' first offense failed!

Ibaka made a quick pass, and the Menglong team's defensive counterattack, Lowry advanced quickly, and rushed into the inside in the frontcourt, and then confronted Lin Ying, who turned back and gave the ball to DeRozan, who followed up.

DeRozan catches the ball and jumps, his legs are clamped, and the iconic mid-range pull-up jumper is shot.

At this moment, what you see is Kobe Bryant's Toronto division.

"Shh!"

DeRozan's opening hand was quite good. With a mid-range hollow pocket, the Menglong team came out on top!

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

Although the Nets' All-Star team is exciting to watch, it's even more exciting if their own team can beat such an All-Star team!

The Menglong team showed their state at the beginning, but the Nets' play method was still step-by-step.

Kobe Bryant went to the frontcourt to continue to catch the ball.

It can be seen that Lu has an idea.

Although he told his players before that he would do his best even in the preseason, he paid more attention to Kobe's state.

There's no such thing as a trade-off, a preseason win, and Kobe's state, which in itself is not comparable.

Kobe Bryant, continued to single against DeRozan, this time he chose to face the frame attack.

Kobe Bryant's back-to-the-basket singles turn and lean back is a must, but his face-frame skills are also very good.

Three threats, shaking, fake shot, real sudden, emergency stop.

His movement skills are still solid, but his footsteps are noticeably slow, especially in front of DeRozan.

At this moment, many people couldn't help but have a feeling of "Lian Po is old".

In NBA-level games, especially in leagues not in charge of Xiao Hua, it is very difficult for veterans with declining physical fitness to perform.

Kobe Bryant finally broke through to the penalty area and couldn't get rid of DeRozan completely, and could only reluctantly shot back with high difficulty.

The ball moves beautifully, but it's really too difficult.

"when!"

When the third sound of iron strikes came, the scene was restless.

Kobe, after all, is still old.

The performance of these opening **** was even more embarrassing than Jordan's second comeback.

The Menglong team quickly played a fast break. This time, Lowry made a layup before causing Rose's defensive foul.

Walking to the free throw line, Lowry made two free throws steadily.

4 to 0!

The Menglong team started with "anti-customer main" and directly gained an advantage!

This time the scene shot was given to Lu on the sidelines of the Nets~www.wuxiahere.com~ The Nets' opening game was indeed a bit too simple, and Kobe didn't talk about his strength, and his body was obviously not fully recovered.

It would be a bit too blunt to let Kobe play like this.

Lu noticed the camera, he looked up at the large LED screen, then pretended he didn't see it, and continued to look at the field.

At this moment, you can feel a breath of fame and handsomeness from Lu's body.

This wave is called motionless as a mountain!

Kobe, still catch the ball in the frontcourt!

At the beginning of the game, I played three times in a row. If it was an ordinary person, let alone a fight, my body might instinctively reject it.

But he's Kobe, and you don't see too many mood swings on his face.

However, his expression did become serious.

After catching the ball, he turned around and played with his back again, and this time he went straight to the back.

DeRozan also didn't say that because the other party was his idol, he didn't mean to keep his hands at all, and he followed suit.

The intensity of the game on the field seemed to become intense in an instant.

After the confrontation, Kobe finally swayed his shoulders from side to side, and then turned to the bottom line and leaned back.

The same is backwards, but this time Kobe's backwardness is obviously larger than the opening ball.

Moreover, DeRozan still reacted quickly, and he rushed to interfere with Kobe's sight at the first time.

This is not only the magnitude, but also the difficulty.

Bryant was forced to adjust the angle of the shot, a super parabolic shot.

The eyes of the fans at the scene moved along the high tossed ball, and then watched the basketball fall sharply towards the basket.

"Shh!"

With a clear sound of entering the net, Kobe finally hit the shot with a fallback in the fourth shot after hitting three irons in the opening game!

Although I haven't seen it for half a year, it still smells familiar! (To be continued)
