Chapter 1748: Big Move in the First Game

On April 18, local time, Staples Arena, the 2010-2011 playoffs will begin here.

Lakers vs. Hornets, a reunion of a pair of old enemies.

The feud between the two teams can be traced back to the 2007-2008 season. At that time, Ji Feng first entered the NBA and was still a little-known rookie. He had just arrived as part of a big deal that shocked the world. For Ji Feng, he is still a bit unfamiliar. After all, Ji Feng only played a few preseason games when he came here.

While Ji Feng was still working hard to play a regular season game, Paul was already the 'Queen Bee' of New Orleans. That year, he played the most brilliant performance of his career so far, closely following him on the MVP list. With Kobe Bryant, the king of Los Angeles, and the Hornets being the biggest opponent of the Lakers in the regular season, Paul once became what people called a young talent and a hope for the future.

Just like that, as if by fate, Ji Feng's opponent in his first official NBA game was the Hornets led by Chris Paul. At that time, maybe no one in the Hornets from top to bottom had even studied Ji Feng in the slightest. , Paul only had Kobe in his eyes. Although Ji Feng was already much taller than Paul at that time, Paul's eyes probably couldn't see the shadow of Ji Feng at all.

"No one thought that was the beginning of a legend." After a long absence, Hot Bar walked in the Staples Honor Room, pointed to a group photo on the wall, and said with a proud tone.

Hot Bar arrived in Los Angeles two days ago, and then went straight to her love nest with Ji Feng, but this time she was not only here to cheer Ji Feng, she will be a guest of Tencent, recording two programs, and becoming a live broadcaster One of the guest commentators.

Hot Bar is not easy to hire these days. As the most popular little girl in the entertainment industry in the past two years, Hot Bar’s popularity goes without saying. The heroine of several hit dramas has made her even more famous. In addition, her girlfriend Ji Feng’s Identity is even more sideways in the entertainment industry. After all, Ji Feng's strength and status are well known, not to mention that there is a behemoth like JY Entertainment behind him.

Of course, Hot Bar is still happy to come to such an event. Not to mention traveling at public expense, being able to meet her boyfriend and watch him play live is enough to make Hot Bar tempted.

In the photo, it is the group photo taken after Ji Feng's first official game. In that game, Ji Feng scored legendary data of 2 points and 20 assists, becoming the first player in history to score in the first official game of his career. A guy with 20 assists, his performance was not inferior to Paul's, and at the last moment, he passed a pass over Paul's head to let the Lakers take away the victory. Since then, he has consolidated his first position in the Western Conference and put Kobe in the MVP competition. Zhong completely overwhelmed Paul.

It can be said that this photo records the beginning of Ji Feng’s legend!

The entanglement between Ji Feng and Paul was doomed from that moment on.

Unfortunately, that year, the Hornets lost to the Spurs and missed the Western Conference Finals. The competition between the Lakers and the Hornets also came to an abrupt end at that moment. In the following two or three years, the Hornets management continued to make tricks, and a strong player The team has thus come to an end. Until now, they have fallen out of contention for the championship and are just relying on Paul to barely squeeze into the playoffs.

"So this matchup can be regarded as making up for the regret of not seeing the two teams compete at their peak." Reba continued.

Beside her, Hu Ge, who was also the guest commentator for this Tencent live broadcast, nodded with envy, while a group of photographers also showed envy and pride.

The envy is naturally that Reba has participated in Ji Feng's rise throughout the whole process, and the pride is because Ji Feng is a Chinese player. He has achieved unprecedented success here and shocked countless Chinese people.

From the first second they arrived in Los Angeles, they could appreciate Ji Feng's status in the hearts of fans in this city. When they came here, as long as they knew they were Chinese, people would keep giving them thumbs up. , and said in less proficient Chinese: "Ji Feng, awesome!"

Without being in Los Angeles, I don’t know how terrifying Ji Feng’s popularity is.

Hu Ge’s eyes were opened this time.

After recording this pre-game show, the two rushed to the competition venue. More than 20,000 Lakers fans had already turned Staples into a sea of ​​purple and gold.

"This atmosphere is really great!" Sitting on the sidelines, Hu Ge felt that although the game hadn't started yet, his heartbeat could no longer be stopped. If he measured it at this time, it would definitely exceed 160!

"It's still early! What's going on now? Be sure to cover your ears when the show starts soon~!" an experienced Reba person on the side reminded kindly.

Hu Ge was a little disapproving. After all, he was also a well-known actor. He had never experienced any big storms in China. It was not like he had never heard of roaring!

However…

As the lights at the scene went out one by one, all attention was attracted by Ji Feng, who led the Lakers players on the court.

Then, the ground was shaken!

"Ji Feng! Ji Feng! Ji Feng!"

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

As the fans roared, Hu Ge felt that his ears had become deaf...

"I'm too young." Hu Ge was about to cry without tears.

But this is just the beginning!

At the end of the appearance ceremony, Avril Lavigne came on stage to sing. As an old friend of the Lakers, Avril Lavigne’s popularity goes without saying. After singing, Avril Lavigne took the initiative to come to the hot bar to say hello, which almost made Hu Ge not recover...

Seeing the two goddesses hugging each other and going to greet Ji Feng together, Hu Ge felt that he couldn't help but feel jealous...

Exciting, really exciting!

Of course, this was just an appetizer before the official game started. Soon, they were attracted by the players on the court.

In this game, the Lakers made a change, Ji Feng swung to the No. 1 position, Artest appeared in the starting lineup, and the Lakers came up with a five-star lineup as soon as they came on the court.

This is the lineup that enabled the Lakers to sweep the playoffs 16-0 and win the championship last season. This lineup is almost impossible to defend.

"The Lakers will make big moves as soon as they open the game!" Yang Yi said.

"The Lakers want to open up the game by bringing out such a strong lineup so early." Reba had obviously done her homework, but she was also a little worried about using it so early and not being afraid of being thoroughly studied.

Of course not afraid!

Because, the Lakers have other bottom-line stuff.

The five tiger generals are exactly the lineup tailor-made for the Hornets!

Ji Feng versus Paul!

The opening is a climax.

At the beginning, Bynum beat Okafor in a jump, the Lakers got the ball, Ji Feng advanced with the ball, and Paul kept an eye on him.

In terms of defense, Paul, who can continuously enter the defensive team, is definitely good at it, but facing Ji Feng, who is more than 20 centimeters taller than him, it is not easy for him to defend. No, it is simply difficult. The only chance is to steal. .

Paul averages 3 steals per game. It stands to reason that it is very dangerous for Ji Feng to dribble in front of him.

But Ji Feng is a bug. He has only been intercepted once in so many games against Paul, which makes Paul want to give up this option many times.

It was the same thing tonight, Paul was swiping left and right, but the ball seemed to be in Ji Feng's hands, with no chance to touch it. Ji Feng stood directly in front of him and passed the ball. Kobe, who was cutting inside, caught the ball and layup easily. Got two points!
