Chapter 673 The Teacher Never Taught You, so Don't Bet!

The feelings of Chinese fans for the Jazz are understandable. It all starts with the grievances between the Jazz and the Rockets.

If Jordan led the NBA to the world, then Dayao brought the NBA to China. Many people began to understand the NBA because of Dayao, and thus further knew a large number of superstars such as Kobe and McGrady.

Although Daba and Roughly had already successfully joined the NBA before Dayao, and Daba even won a championship ring with the Spurs in 1999, their influence cannot be compared to Dayao.

Before Ji Feng, Dayao was a banner in China and even in Asia. He was the first Asian champion, the first player to be a starter in an NBA team, and the first player to reach the height of a superstar.

So before Ji Feng entered the NBA, the Rockets were actually the home team of many Chinese fans. They were naturally eager for Dayao to lead the Rockets to a higher level. Watching Dayao's level increase day by day, many people even longed for Dayao to truly To touch the championship trophy in a sense, this is obviously a completely different meaning from the way to win the championship like the bus.

But Dayao has never broken through the second round of the playoffs so far. He and his partner McGrady have become the famous victims of the first round of the playoffs.

And the Jazz are their biggest sufferers. They have met in the playoffs in a row. Last year, they were 3-2 ahead and they were sitting on the home field advantage. The Jazz completed a shocking reversal. In the seventh game at the Toyota Center, the Jazz used A perfect attack and defense successfully performed the following grams, Yao Mai tried his last bullet but still fell on his doorstep.

This year, the Rockets Jazz met again in the same way. The difference is that this time the Rockets didn't even have Dayao. It was an unsurprising 4-2. McGrady played his last energy and still couldn't change it. Come to the second round of the playoffs.

Therefore, many fans in China hate the Jazz, but fortunately there is Ji Feng and the Lakers today. The Lakers have become the most popular team in the hearts of Chinese fans this season. After all, the Rockets have even played on Dayao. No field, the United Arab too immature.

This dilutes the sadness of the Rockets' consecutive first-round failures, but it also increases fans' expectations for the Lakers Jazz series.

"I beg the Lakers to beat the Jazz by 30 points!"

"One person's blood book Jifeng broke out tonight, starting at 30 minutes, and 50 minutes can't stop it!"

"Come on, Ji Feng! Come on Lakers! It's time for the Jazz to cry this time!"

"Selling melon seeds, beer and peanuts in the front row, wait for the Lakers to blast the Hammer!"

…

Netizens and fans on the Internet before the game cheered for the Lakers in their own way, and before the game started, the live broadcast room was even more crowded with fans waiting for the game to start.

The game was not broadcast nationally, but TNT still sent their ace lineup. Barkley and Smith came to Staples to give a live commentary, and their guest was a person who had a deep relationship with both teams. Man - 'Postman' Malone!

I have to say that TNT is really good at inviting people...

The glorious time of his career was spent with the Jazz, but at the end of his career he came to the Lakers and played an unpleasant season, so Malone is naturally very supportive of the Jazz.

Although no one in the United States believes that the Jazz will complete the following game again, after all, the Lakers are strong for all to see, and the only sweep in the first round is still fresh in their minds. The average score of more than 120 points per game is enough to cause headaches for all teams in the league, but Malone still believes that, The Jazz still have a chance!

"Listen man, although the Jazz's current lineup is not perfect, they can still have a fight at Staples. Boozer and Deron's pick-and-roll is difficult to limit, even though the Lakers are much stronger than the Rockets in the backcourt. , but it does not affect Deron is still the better one, and the outside ability is not to mention, the Jazz have Korver and the big man Okur who can shoot three-pointers, Bynum is difficult to let go, at most is It's just exploding each other." Ma Long said bluntly in the live broadcast room.

"Kobe is difficult to limit, but Brewer can be a sapper and let Kobe play solo. I know him, that guy won't pass the ball to others once he plays."

And then I also hacked Kobe by the way...

It is rumored that the main reason for the collapse of F4 is the contradiction between Malone and Kobe, and it does not seem to be groundless.

"As for Ji Feng, I personally think Ji Feng will be a very important point for the Lakers," Smith said.

"That kid is good, but don't forget that the Jazz have Kirilenko, one of the best No. 3s in the league. He has an advantage in height and wingspan. Ji Feng's breakthrough is very problematic."

Although Malone has also heard of Ji Feng's name and read various news about Ji Feng's record breaking in the newspapers, most of him thinks that this is part of the media star-making movement. What's the effect? ​​Wasn't O'Neal also badly educated at the beginning? He didn't believe it anyway.

"Don't underestimate him, or you will suffer." Barkley shook his head, seeing that Malone doesn't usually watch Lakers games, Ji Feng is not a guy who was blown up by fans and praised by the media.

"Hahaha, no, Charles, I'll believe you if you can score 20 points over the season peak." Malone said with a smile, he had visited the Jazz before the game, and Sloan was well prepared for Ji Feng. , and the Jazz are not the Nuggets, their defense is very tough, this is the source of his confidence.

"Oh?" Barkley got spirited when he heard the bet. He couldn't find any bad luck this season, and as a result, someone came to the door today!

How can you let this go!

"No need! I bet 25 points, if Ji Feng can't get 25 points today, then I'll kiss your ass!" Barkley said excitedly with a coquettish twitch on his face.

"OH SHIT! You are still so disgusting, just like when you were playing football, you should go to your beloved donkey, I'll bet with you!" Ma Long said with a smile, it was obvious that he was very confident.

Smith stared at Malone sympathetically from the side. He didn't think Ji Feng could score 25 points. After all, Ji Feng has averaged 28.4 points, 12.3 assists, 9 rebounds and 3 steals in four games in the playoffs, and he is still in the last game. He scored 40+ points in the field. He believes that the only thing that Ji Feng can't get 25 points is that the Lakers smashed the Jazz early...

Is that what Malone thinks...

Does he still want to go back to Utah...

However, the conversation between the two quickly increased the ratings of TNT. After all, this gimmick is not bad. After all, it is already 2008. Some people don't believe that Ji Feng is also magical.

Many fans even went to TNT's official website to leave a message to Malone: ​​"Didn't your mother tell you not to bet with others!"

And with their voices, the starters of both sides have all been released!

The Lakers put Farmar in the starting lineup and formed a backcourt with Kobe, Ji Feng and Gasol partnered up front, and Bynum sat in the center.

The Jazz is still a familiar lineup, Deron and Brewer's backcourt, Kirilenko's No. 3 position, Okur and Boozer's interior partner!

The two sides stood on the court, and Bynum won the basketball!
