Chapter 105 Opening Game Review! Who Is More Talented, Oden or Jiang Chen?
The NBA has scheduled three games for the opening night.
Without exception, all of them are heavyweight and very interesting matches.
The first team to start the game was the Celtics, who played against the Cavaliers at home.
Last season, the two teams played fiercely in the second round of the playoffs until the seventh game!
In the seventh game, James played well and scored 45 points, but Pierce was not to be outdone and scored 41 points.
In the end, the Celtics won the seventh game with a 5-point advantage with their stronger overall strength and eliminated the Cavaliers.
This also led to a feud between the two teams.
Now that this game is scheduled for the opening game, the feud between the two teams in the playoffs will continue into the new season and be defined as James' revenge battle.
The Cavaliers completed an important signing during the offseason, trading for quasi-All-Star player Mo Williams from the Bucks.
His characteristic is his strong offensive ability, but as a point guard he doesn't like to pass the ball, so he is called "Mo Bu Chuan" by fans.
Some people see Mo Williams as James' helper, while others are worried about the compatibility of the two.
Perhaps these doubts can find some answers in the opening game.
The game was very intense from the beginning, and the intensity was no less than that of the playoffs.
The two sides fought until the last minute to decide the winner.
The score is 85:90.
As if it was destined, the Celtics once again beat the Cavaliers by 5 points!
The Cavaliers, who have attracted much attention in the new season, suffered their first loss of the season.
Next up is the Bucks vs. Bulls game.
The biggest highlight of this game is the debut of this year's No. 1 pick, Rose.
As a player who is seen as the one who can lead the Bulls to a revival after Michael Jordan, Rose has not lacked attention since joining the league.
His NBA debut is highly anticipated.
The final score was 96:118.
The Bulls won the game easily. The performance of No. 1 pick Rose was not amazing and could only be described as mediocre. He played for more than 30 minutes, scored only 11 points, but had 9 assists.
Finally, it is the much-anticipated game between the defending champion Lakers and the Trail Blazers at home.
There are many highlights in this game.
In addition to how the second-year draft pick Jiang Chen will perform after signing the contract and set his salary, another second-year draft pick's NBA debut is also attracting much attention.
He is the No. 1 pick in the 2007 draft - Greg Oden!
As the man who beat Durant to become the No. 1 pick, Oden's talent is unquestionable.
But due to a knee injury, Oden missed all games in his rookie season.
Therefore, his long-awaited debut is even more exciting. How will this once-in-a-decade talent perform in the NBA?
Will Jiang Chen, a famous undrafted player from the same class, and Oden become lifelong enemies?
Of course, there is one most important thing to watch, that is Jiang Chen can score more than 20 points in the first game of the new season!
After all, Barkley has already made a bold statement and is just waiting to kiss the donkey's a**.
I wonder if Jiang Chen can help him realize this wish...
With these questions, countless fans sat in front of the TV, waiting for the game to begin.
...
Pre-match interview session.
Lakers locker room.
Reporters swarmed the scene.
"Kobe, it's the opening game of the season again. What are your expectations for this season?"
A reporter asked.
"Of course the championship! There is no doubt that we will continue to attack the championship."
Kobe said seriously.
"Which player from the 2007 class do you think has the highest ceiling? Is it Durant who shined last season and won the Rookie of the Year award, or is it Oden who has returned from injury, or is it Jiang Chen who performed amazingly in the Olympics?"
A reporter asked, instantly catching the interest of others.
Comparisons between players are always an interesting topic.
Fans can argue over their idols until they are red in the face, and the media also regard it as an eye-catching topic.
"In my opinion, this is a topic without suspense!"
"There is no doubt that Jiang Chen is the most talented player and his future achievements will be much higher than Oden and Durant."
Kobe said lightly, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Why?"
The reporter couldn't help but ask.
"Because Jiang Chen's future is the future of the NBA."
Kobe said calmly, not sparing his praise for Jiang Chen.
After all, how can an opponent who I can't even defeat in a one-on-one duel not be strong?
???
The reporters all gasped when they heard this.
This is a really high evaluation!
Totally unexpected.
Jiang Chen, who was sitting on the other side, couldn't help but glance at Kobe, gave him a thumbs up and said, "You have good vision."
???
The reporters were all confused.
When facing the praise from a superstar like Kobe, he is not humble at all. This Chinese player is still so frivolous!
But when the reporters thought about how Jiang Chen's bold words in the finals had all become reality, they fell silent.
Thinking of Jiang Chen's performance in the Olympics, the reporters became even more excited about the upcoming games.
"Jiang, Barkley said if you score more than 20 points in this game, he will kiss the a** of a donkey live on the show!"
"What do you think of this statement?"
A reporter asked.
"Hype! Absolute hype. I highly doubt Barkley is taking advantage of my popularity!"
"But since you want to kiss the a** of a female donkey so much, I will certainly help you."
Jiang Chen said with a grin.
The reporters all laughed.
"Big Mouth" Barkley is not sure what to say and often talks nonsense, which has caused him a lot of criticism, but he has indeed always maintained a high level of popularity.
After asking a few more questions, the pre-match interview ended.
In the Trail Blazers' pre-game interview, Oden made it clear that he has recovered 100% and can't wait to get back to the game and help the team!
Players from both teams came out of their respective locker rooms, walked through the long player tunnel, and were exposed to the spotlight.
The fans cheered loudly, welcoming the Los Angeles heroes back to the Staples Center.
Before the game officially starts, the first thing to do is the ceremony of awarding the championship rings!!
Every Lakers player stepped forward to receive his or her own championship ring, which made the Trail Blazers players standing on the other side of the court envious.
After completing the ceremony, players from both sides began to warm up.
After a while, the warm-up ended and the starting players of both teams came on the court.
The Lakers' starting lineup is Bynum, Gasol, Jiang Chen, Kobe and Fisher.
The starting lineup of the Trail Blazers is: Oden, Aldridge, Otero, Roy, and Blake.
beep!
The referee blew the whistle.
Jump ball for both sides!
