Chapter 75 The Lakers defeated the Rockets in the opening game and got off to a good start! Ye Qingchen was recognized by his teammates!
In this match that was broadcast live across the United States, it can be said that Ye Qingchen stole the show.
However, the contrast between Ye Qingchen in the first and second half was huge.
Ye Qingchen in the first half can even be said to be a young version of Magic Johnson.
Because he scored a triple-double in the first half and even successfully defended Olajuwon.
Therefore, all the fans who followed this game felt that Ye Qingchen had a bright future and the Lakers had indeed made a lot of money from this transaction.
But what was unexpected was that in the second half, the Rockets' defensive scale suddenly became larger, which directly caused injuries to Lakers players.
Therefore, Worthy retired due to injury for this reason.
However, when Thorpe extended his claws towards Ye Qingchen, he was killed by Ye Qingchen with a punch.
For fans watching this game, although they are used to various conflicts and high-intensity confrontations in NBA games.
But during the game, Ye Qingchen was the first to directly use boxing movements to retaliate against players.
This is a jab that only appears in serious boxing rings!
Once this kind of jab hits the opponent's face, the damage to the opponent will be really serious.
Therefore, Thorpe's tragic end was the result of this jab.
Magic Johnson himself was also paying attention to this game. When he saw Ye Qingchen knocking out Thorpe with one punch, his expression was extremely shocked.
After a long time, he shook his head helplessly and said:
"Young man, this punch is really good!"
Then turn your attention back to the scene.
Although Ye Qingchen had been expelled from the stadium, the Rockets fans at the scene were still quite dissatisfied.
They made huge boos and noise, just to put pressure on the referee.
However, the referee at this time has directly blocked these interferences.
The game is not over yet, it can even be said that there is still nearly the entire second half.
So, they still need to continue to complete their work.
The referee signaled the game to continue!
The main players of the Rockets and Lakers have suffered varying degrees of damage.
For the Lakers, Worthy and Ye Qingchen can no longer play.
The Rockets' Thorpe and Olajuwon also left the game due to injuries.
Therefore, in the next game, both teams lacked stars and could only rely on the performance of role players.
In comparison, the Lakers are even better.
After all, Byron Scott of the Lakers is still pretty good.
Of course, there is also the inside line composed of Divac and Perkins, whose lethality is also quite huge.
Perhaps influenced by Ye Qingchen's strong counterattack against Thorpe, the morale of the Lakers became even higher after Ye Qingchen was expelled.
Therefore, in the following games, the Lakers' offensive momentum always overwhelmed the Rockets.
The final result, of course, was that the Lakers maintained their lead until the end of the game.
The Lakers got a good start to the new season.
This is something the entire Lakers team should be happy about.
However, looking back at the Rockets, their experience was a bit miserable.
Forget it if we lose the game, both the main player Olajuwon and the main power forward suffered injuries of varying degrees.
This will have a great impact on their next regular season schedule.
Because judging from Thorpe's injury, he will definitely not be able to return in a short time.
Although there is no clear diagnosis of Olajuwon's injury, judging from his expression, it must be serious.
Therefore, the opening game between the Rockets and the Lakers is really a huge loss.
When the Lakers players returned to the locker room after the game, they saw Ye Qingchen congratulating them with a relaxed expression.
At this time, James Worthy said to head coach Dunleavy with an excited expression:
"Coach, although I don't approve of conflicts on the court!"
"But Thorpe's action was really too much. He already caused me injuries!"
"So, I think what Ye did is right!"
"He's proud of his fight back!"
James Worthy's words made the Lakers players burst into laughter.
Because they all felt that James Worthy's words were very reasonable and expressed their feelings.
Because Ye Qingchen is a rookie player, this is even his first NBA game.
He actually made the toughest and most domineering counterattack right after he was fouled.
He even knocked Thorpe to the ground with a clean punch.
Ye Qingchen's courage really impressed them all.
Therefore, after James Worthy said these words, other players also echoed and expressed their appreciation for Ye Qingchen's behavior.
After Dunleavy saw the reactions and expressions of the team members, he spread his hands helplessly and said:
"To be honest, I think his punch was really damn good!"
Dunleavy's words made the entire Lakers team laugh.
Ye Qingchen's expression was very calm, and he could hear the affirmation of himself from his teammates' voices.
It seems that you really need to be tough enough to play basketball in this era.
However, at this moment, head coach Dunleavy once again signaled everyone to quiet down:
"Although I think Ye's approach is very relieving, the consequences of this kind of thing are also quite serious!"
"Ye, you have to be mentally prepared to be suspended!"
At this time, Dunleavy had returned to his serious face, looked at Ye Qingchen and said.
Ye Qingchen nodded naturally and replied:
"I have considered the consequences of this!"
"Even after he pulled me down from the air, I had already predicted this result!"
"But even though I had foreseen the consequences, I still did it without hesitation!"
"Because, in my opinion, when he hurt my teammate Worthy, it was already my problem if I failed to stop him in time!"
"Now, if he still dares to hurt me, I will definitely not let him continue to be rampant!"
"So, I didn't hesitate at all with this punch!"
When Ye Qingchen said these words calmly, the entire Lakers team fell silent.
They thought that Ye Qingchen would self-examine the words of head coach Dunleavy.
But he didn't!
Not only did he fail to examine himself, he even directly stated that he did not regret doing so at all!
This really shows that Ye Qingchen really cares about his teammates!
It is no exaggeration to say that Ye Qingchen's words directly increased the favorability of his teammates towards him.
Keith Owens on the side was about to cry. He felt that Ye Qingchen's words were so touching!
James Worthy also took the lead in applauding at this time.
As a result, the entire Lakers team applauded Ye Qingchen loudly.
Seeing this reaction from his teammates, Ye Qingchen let out a long sigh of relief in his heart, even though he remained calm on the surface:
"This time I'm pretending!"
"They seemed really touched!"
Chapter completed!
