Super League

Chapter 558 The new season and the new heroes
07/08 The new season has arrived, and the first thing is the preseason.

Due to Chen Xinglian's butterfly effect, NBA preseason games are no longer boring tactical drills for teams, but real games with real swords and guns.

At this time, professional sports weekly will examine the team's true level from the pre-season competition to speculate on the strong player in the new season.

Both CBA and NBA teams do this.

……

"Xiaojun, please slow down, our old bones are not as strong as you young people, and we are almost out of breath."

Zhang Weiping couldn't keep up with the young man in front of him.

This young man is huge, with a height of 1.8 meters, a weight of 10 kilograms, and a body fat rate of less than [-]%.

And the arm circumference of nearly forty is not easy to mess with at first glance.However, the young man named Xiaojun, who looked fierce outside, was somewhat reserved in the traditional Chinese style. Zhang Weiping's words made him quickly slow down.

"Director Zhang, I'm sorry, I'm a little excited when I think about being able to interview Liang Zhan later."

Zhang Weiping burst out laughing after hearing this. He liked this young man who regarded work as his hobby.In fact, if this young man named Xiaojun is not seriously injured, he will definitely appear in the domestic professional rugby league. As a domestic college rugby player, Xiaojun was once quite famous, and he once hoped to go abroad.

However, no one involved in sports can guarantee their good luck. Fortunately, with his reputation and professionalism, he was recruited by CCTV as a sports reporter, studying and assisting Zhang Weiping.

Xiaojun's purpose today is to come to the United States with Coach Zhang to watch the preseason games between the Grizzlies and Yunnan Mammoths, and to interview domestic stars.As soon as he heard about the Grizzlies, Xiaojun couldn't help but yearn for it. Liang Zhan has always been his favorite athlete.

Xiaojun even complained that he was not tall enough and his hand skills were not good enough, so he could only play rugby. He also wanted to fly into the sky and escape like Liang Zhan.Nowadays, the boy who studies sports in China does not want to play in the CBA.

There is a saying in the outside world that only those with poor physical fitness go to the NBA, while strong people go to the NFL. Although this sentence is untenable, it can also reflect the specialness of the NFL in the United States.

However, it is the opposite in China. The first thought of young people in China is to become basketball players. Netizens also joked that only those who are not tall enough and lack basketball talent can play rugby or choose football or track and field.

It can only be said that the national conditions of each country are different.

Just as several people were preparing to leave the hotel for FedEx Arena, they ran into trouble as soon as they left.At the front desk of the hotel, I encountered two young men who forced themselves to jump in line.

When Zhang Weiping thought that this was the United States, he pushed Xiaojun and the other young people back.

However, Xiao Heizi's mouth was still dirty and filled with all kinds of discriminatory words against Asians.Apparently they used to bully local Asians.The receptionist at the front desk didn't dare to say anything, let alone call the police.

Everyone's expressions changed a bit, but even so, the older generation still wanted to settle the matter.However, before Zhang Weiping was ready to dodge, the other party continued to be aggressive. Apparently he thought Zhang Weiping and his group were easy to bully, and was ready to ask for some gold coins.

Xiao Jun and another young photographer on the side couldn't stand it anymore. After shouting "Chinese Essence", the two people rushed over to confront Xiao Heizi.Xiaojun used Capture, pressing a slightly strong little Heizi to the ground unable to move, and then started punching left and right.Another photographer used his favorite iron elbow to clear the way. With one elbow strike, the opponent fell down. He forgot to mention that this photographer used to be the center of the hospital team.

The older generation were frightened. They did not expect that the young people who came out this time were so violent and actually started fighting with each other.And that one was so fierce that I didn’t know who was bullying whom.They couldn't stop it at all.

After the beating, the little black guys were all confused. They felt like they had hit something evil today, and they secretly wondered why these Asians were so tough.

After the two ran away, Xiaojun made an international gesture and shouted that he was Chinese. In the end, the two people who were beaten escaped and the crisis was resolved.Zhang Weiping was still a little worried that the other party would come back for revenge, but Xiaojun didn't think so.

"The soldiers will block it, the water will cover it with the soil!" Xiao Jun said easily.And everyone has no choice, after all, the situation has been created.If we take a step back and say that today's young people are not tough, the outcome may be even worse.

They could only continue their work today, and the tempers of the two young men, Xiaojun, impressed this group of elderly people.

They don't feel that more and more young people like Xiaojun are choosing to deal with such things in a tougher way.

This is largely due to the rise of sports in China. Some social media have discovered that young people born after 85 are more brave and expressive in handling affairs.

……

"Xiao Liang, long time no see!" Zhang Weiping's voice woke up Liang Zhan, and Liang Zhan stepped forward excitedly when he saw that it was someone from China.He took the initiative to hug Zhang Weiping.

"Director Zhang, long time no see. How are you?" The two have been friends since 02, and Director Zhang also likes this "Chinese Carter" with a strong body.

"Xiaoliang, I'm getting older and older, but I'm still doing fine."

The two started chatting, interspersed with interviews. Liang Zhan also enthusiastically shared his recent situation with domestic reporters, although Liang Zhan often shares his life on domestic social platforms.

Xiaojun on the side finally struck up a conversation with his idol. In addition to asking for an autograph, Xiaojun, as a fan of the Twin Cities, also asked a question. "Brother Liang, are you going back to the CBA? All the old fans of the Trail Blazers miss you." Liang Zhan, who had been signing autographs, suddenly paused and then said: "Yes! Now the CBA is no worse than the NBA, I will probably go back."

Xiaojun was very excited by these words, but he also knew that Liang Zhang had just left his rookie contract and signed a big contract with the Grizzlies, and he might not return to the CBA in the next few years.

"Brother Liang, I won't disturb your training. Pay attention to the game in the evening. Ma Yunfei is not simple." Xiaojun said at last.

Liang Zhan said he knew.

As night falls, the preseason officially begins.

As soon as the game started, the Grizzlies discovered that they were not facing a weak team.

Mammoth has now strengthened Ma Yunfei, and Lin Tao, who performed well last season, has also been placed in the second position in the second season.

One is the template of Tracy McGrady, and the other is the template of Kemba Walker. Although their growth environment makes them somewhat different from the template, the combat power they displayed still makes it very difficult for the Grizzlies.

Lin Tao, as a typical representative of Xiao Kuailing, is known as the player with the most complete arsenal of weapons in the back line. He can do fancy dribbling at his fingertips during the half. Navarro was stunned by him. He felt that he could not even connect with the opponent. The corners of his clothes were not touched.

Then Ma Yunfei held the ball and prepared for a singles when facing Liang Zhan.For the first time, he was able to compete with the legendary seniors from the 02 class. This made Ma Yunfei, who always had a high self-esteem, want to compare in his heart.

However, he underestimated Liang Zhan and failed to use his footwork to break through.The only option was to blast the ball outside the three-point line, retreat outside the three-point line, and face Liang Zhan's interference to shoot a three-pointer.

Swish!
Liang Zhan raised his eyebrows and had to admire Ma Yunfei.

"Very good!" Liang Zhan praised Ma Yunfei before he retreated, and Ma Yunfei was also very satisfied.

However, his confidence was knocked back by Liang Zhan in the next round.

Liang Zhan used his many years of game experience to pass Ma Yunfei with a fake move, rushed inside and gave Yun Province's center, Diogu, a former CBA star, a dunk. This white center experienced the crotch of China Carter. taste.

"Liang! Liang! Liang!"

The American audience below watched with blood boiling and kept shouting Liang Zhan's name.Liang Zhan is still the favorite of Memphis, even if the management is still optimistic about him.

Ma Yunfei was aroused by this dunk.

In the later round, he scored a beautiful 2+1 against Gasol, which was regarded as revenge for his teammates.

The two people's tit-for-tat confrontation made the fans on the sidelines excited to watch. They didn't feel there was anything wrong because they were two Chinese people. Obviously, the Chinese people had a significant change in the impression of this group of Americans.

Even the Grizzlies' management is very jealous of Ma Yunfei. After all, as an industry insider, he has heard of Ma Yunfei's name for a long time.

How they hope Ma Yunfei can come to the Grizzlies...

At the beginning of the game, due to the weakness of Yunzhou inside, Gasol made a huge splash in the Mammoth penalty area. Only then did everyone realize that the original softie could be so tough.

The score difference was once more than ten points ahead.

This is as predicted by the media before the game. Yun Sheng will lose the game due to the disadvantage of the inside line.

However, the situation suddenly changed in the second half.

At the critical moment, Lin Tao stepped back from the outside and hit a three-pointer, opening up Yunzhou's touch.Yun Sheng's outside line and even the inside line began to hit three-pointers.
American basketball has never seen such a three-point rain at this time.

The Grizzlies coaching bench was stunned by Lin Tao's various three-point offensive methods. For this kind of team that actively uses three-pointers as a regular weapon, the Grizzlies suddenly became uncomfortable.Obviously the hero of the second half is Lin Tao.

Liang Zhan had no choice but to participate in this fierce battle.However, Ma Yunfei is also consuming Liang Zhan, and the two cancel each other out.

In the end, the Grizzlies lost the game 104:110.

Liang Zhan contributed 32 points and 7 rebounds. No one would blame him for losing this game.Memphis fans put the blame on Gasol.

Apparently the rift between Gasol and the Grizzlies is getting deeper and deeper.
