Chapter 73 Ji Feng's Premiere! Take Back the Lead!
Just when Yu Jia and Zhang Weiping actively made suggestions for Ji Feng and made predictions about Ji Feng's playing time in this game, the starting lists of the two teams were finally announced.
"So good, let's take a look at the starting five tigers on both sides!"
Yu Jia said: "The first is Unikaha's lineup center, Sinanovic, this is a 222cm tall center, weighing 225 pounds, but his movement is a hard injury, his athletic ability is average, power forward, Joe El Freeland, this is a power forward with strong attacking ability, small forward: Carlos Jimenez, 205cm tall, if Ji Feng plays, there should be a chance to match him, point guard Gerrard, this He's an American defender, he's good, and he's in Roderick."
Yu Jia read the list of opponents, and because these players were unfamiliar, he gave a general introduction to the key players. Overall, Unicaja is a strong team in Spain with strong scorers both inside and out.
"This lineup is good. If you are careless, you may suffer a loss." At the same time, Ji Feng, who was sitting on the bench, also saw the opponent's lineup, taking into account both inside and outside. Although the players are not as strong as the Grizzlies, they are not without one. The power of battle.
After introducing the opponent, Yu Jia then introduced the Grizzlies lineup: "Next is the Grizzlies that we have been waiting for. I think all the audience in front of the TV are looking forward to Ji Feng's appearance, but unfortunately, from the Grizzlies we got The Bears' starting roster did not have Ji Feng's name. The Grizzlies sent: center, Dak Milicic, power forward, Andre Brown, small forward, Rudy Gay, point guard, Dammons Tadmeier, points, Mike Miller."
"This is the Grizzlies' main lineup. It's the same as last season when Gasol was away. It seems that the Grizzlies still want to win. After all, it's the first game of the season. It's not good to lose face. But If the score gap is large, rookies like Ji Feng and Conley should have a chance to play." Zhang Guidao analyzed.
He also believes that the Grizzlies are stronger. Although the Grizzlies used this lineup to play a super ghost last season, this is Spain after all, and the bottom-most NBA team is also an NBA team.
The fact is just as Zhang Director predicted, the Grizzlies didn't think they would lose from top to bottom, but they still dispatched all the main force of last season except Gasol, and strived to win this game.
"Listen guys, let's go up and kill that group of Spaniards and let them know what real basketball is." One minute before the start of the game, Coach Mark clapped and encouraged everyone.
"No problem, coach, leave it to me, give me the ball, and take you home!" Guy patted his chest hard and shouted to his teammates. In this lineup, he is the core of the attack.
"Why does this guy still feel like a middle schooler?" Ji Feng couldn't help laughing as he watched Guy pat his chest.
However, everyone in Ji Feng was too confident and underestimated their opponents. Judging from yesterday's training, this group of people was undoubtedly not in shape, especially the most aggressive one.
The fact was unfortunately told by Ji Feng.
After the game started, the Grizzlies and their opponents were evenly matched, covering the names of the two teams, you couldn't even tell which was the NBA team, because the Unikaha team played even more passionately!
"Roderick attacked quickly with the ball and passed directly into the inside line!" Yu Jia explained passionately: "Joel Freeland jumped up against Milicic!"
"Alley-oop! Woohoo! The basketball was smashed directly into the hoop!"
"The basket was smashed!" Director Zhang was also excited: "The Grizzlies have figured out a way, and they have not scored in three rounds. Especially this Guy, after he didn't score a single one. Crazy obsessed with individual singles, it's impossible to make three shots."
Just as he was talking, after Gay asked for the ball from beyond the three-point line, he did not choose to break through, but turned over and backed up for a three-pointer!
The basketball crossed an arc and hit the photographer outside the court accurately!
Three no sticks! It caused a lot of laughter inside and outside the field, and Barkley on the TNT commentary stage almost laughed under the table.
And Guy, who missed the ball, jumped agitatedly twice, with a very struggling expression on his face.
"Hurry back to defense! Guy! Back to defense! What are you doing!" And Mark on the sidelines was very excited and kept yelling at the court, his hand always pointing to the front court!
It turned out that Unicaha sent the ball from the bottom line quickly, and then Roderick went straight to the frontcourt and passed it to Carlos Jimenez, who was unguarded outside the three-point line. One-step three-point shot to overtake the score!
Played 10 minutes in the first quarter, 18-15, but led by 3 points! This was something that no one thought of before the game, and the home audience obviously did too. Their home team was actually ahead of the NBA team! Incredible! So the atmosphere in the venue is even more lively!
"SHIT!" Mark slammed the tactical board to the ground, he decided to make a substitution and let Guy calm down.
"Oh, let's see, Ji Feng, Conley, and Navarro are ready to play at the same time!" Yu Jia's tone was filled with unconcealed pleasure.
"Finally adjusted, Ji Feng's first show that everyone is looking forward to is finally here!" Director Zhang also said with a smile.
Ji Feng came on to replace the underperforming Gay, while Conley and Navarro partnered in the backcourt.
"Finally it's my turn!" Ji Feng turned his wrists and ankles to ease his inner excitement.
Conley held the ball, Ji Feng trotted in front of him to help him cover, then quickly sank to the bottom, got off the bottom line, and formed a double bottom line position with Navarro!
After that, Milicic went up to help Conley pick and roll, and Conley went down after the pick and roll! Carlos Jimenez, who was defending Ji Feng, looked down on Ji Feng who had only 195CM in front of him at all. He left Ji Feng and went inside to defend!
Conley accurately grasped the space in front of Ji Feng and passed the ball directly. Ji Feng received the ball without thinking much, and shot a three-pointer directly!
"Have it!" Ji Feng felt that the goal was scored!
Sure enough, the arc of the basketball is very positive, and it falls straight into the basket!
Ji Feng's first goal helped the team equalize the score!
The teammates on the bench stood up to applaud Ji Feng, and even Gasol in a suit stood up! For a time, the towel on the Grizzlies bench was flying, it was really beautiful!
"YES!" The hot bar watching the ball jumped up and twisted Xiaoman's waist for a crazy dance, she knew that Ji Feng could do it!
But Ji Feng's performance is not over!
Carlos Jimenez was very annoyed after Ji Feng hit a ball, so he came over and asked for the ball directly, and his teammates gave it to him directly. Carlos Jimenez thinks that even a muscular man like Guy has been beaten down by him, and he is afraid of the Asian shorty in front of him!
"Boy, let me show you how good I am!" Carlos Jimenez arrogantly sprayed trash at Ji Feng while dribbling the ball.
"Your mouth is so stinky, didn't your mother tell you to brush your teeth in the morning?" Ji Feng also shot back.
"FXCK!" Carlos Jimenez became angry and dribbled the ball directly to knock Ji Feng away with his strength!
"Bye bye, my friend!" But the Eye of Reality had long caught the loophole of Carlos Jimenez's dribble, Ji Feng's hand appeared in time, cut Carlos Jimenez's basketball directly, and then Ji Feng Catch up with basketball in stride!
Pass it to Conley, then Ji Feng stays at the three-point line! After Conley broke through, he faced the pinch attack and returned again!
Ji Feng's vacant three-pointer shot again! Basketball is very face to fly into the hoop! Again!
21-18! Ji Feng helps the Grizzlies overtake a three-pointer!
