Chapter 274 When a Meteor Cuts Through the Night Sky of Toronto (5200 words, ask for a monthly pass,(1/2)
On the 9th, Canada Route Center Stadium.
In the new season, after the Raptors exploded like a mushroom egg, the Raptors' home court, which once had a occupancy rate of less than 50%, is now hard to find.
Looking at the Raptors fans who were hyped up before the game and holding team tickets, they feel that they have made a lot of money now.
Tonight, Raptors boss Chad personally attended the game. As a result, when he entered the stadium, Chad always felt that he had gone to the wrong place by himself in a trance.
Listen to the cheers like mountains and tsunamis.
Look, the dense and colorful crowds.
"Is this really our home court?"
In the stands, after looking around the scene, Chad murmured to himself in a trembling manner.
By the way, in addition to the whole United States live broadcast, the Big Chronicle TV also broadcast the game live.
Before the game, while doing the preview, Director Zhang smiled and said, "Tsk, it's so lively today. It seems that the fans on the scene can't wait to watch Su Feng and Jordan perform later."
On the side, Director Sun also said: "In the new season, the NBA has relevant ratings statistics show that the Raptors' previous two away games have broken the NBA's ratings record."
"This is what I often say. As long as your game is good, your popularity will naturally be high.
Moreover, the Raptors are not only good at playing games, they can also win," added Coach Zhang.
"Huh? Tonight, the Raptors actually arranged for McGrady to play the starting lineup?
Is Coach Davis planning to swing from the beginning of the game?” Coach Sun said curiously when he noticed the starting list of the two teams tonight.
"Others may not dare to arrange troops like this, but in Davis's eyes, he wants to gain the misalignment advantage on the court through this swing method." Director Zhang analyzed.
After a pause, Director Zhang continued: "It seems that the Raptors are definitely not tall, but if you look closely at their average height, they are basically swinging people about two meters tall.
In this way, it is easy for them to play their aggressive through some simple pick-and-roll cooperation on the front line during the game."
"So that's it! Thanks to Director Zhang for his wonderful comments." Although he didn't understand much, Director Sun still supported the venue and gave Director Zhang a thumbs up.
Shortly after Director Zhang finished his analysis, the players from both teams also finished the warm-up and prepared to start the entry ceremony.
I have to say that compared to the 76ers' home dj, the Raptors' home dj is indeed a bit low...
You said that when you introduced Boss Qiao, you only used Jordan No. 24 to introduce it. I don’t know, but I thought you were introducing the Jordan in the future...
Su Feng had made up his mind, and he planned to go to Davis to report this matter after the game was finished.
As the saying goes, life must have a sense of ritual.
In Su Feng's opinion, if even a tool like Tracy's younger brother who is still unparalleled, is less than 30 seconds old, then why wouldn't you go home and sell sweet potatoes?
Of course, although the sense of ceremony was a little bit bad, when it was Su Feng and Jordan's turn to make a debut, the entire stadium still had an instant climax.
There is no way. For Raptors fans who now have Gundam, how do they still need bicycles?
You know, Raptors fans will wake up laughing even when they dream.
On the court, after the entrance ceremony of the two teams, the Raptors, Da Ben, Su Feng, Carter, McGrady, and Jordan stepped onto the main stage with laughter.
In sharp contrast to the Raptors' "relaxed" team atmosphere, this season, basically all the 76ers are playing games with a stern face.
After Su Feng left the team, under the management of Brown, who was increasingly strict in the military management, the current atmosphere of this 76ers team can only be described as serious.
In the middle circle, Ratreve, who signed a big contract with the 76ers not long ago, always had a sense of déjà vu when he was preparing to start jumping with Da Ben.
On the other hand, after noticing tonight the Raptors' starting five tigers, the 76ers' defensive tool Snow...
But I don't know who I should guard against in a while.
You're introducing...
If Snow goes to defend McGrady, then Iverson can't go against Carter, right?
But if Snow goes to defend Carter, how can Iverson defend McGrady?
Although Snow is not afraid of being beaten as an excellent defender, but...
The eldest brother he wants to protect, Iverson has a bunch of "critical strike gears".
So, without knowing who he should defend against, Snow had to look for Christie with help.
only......
Like Snow is worried that Christie, who was still playing for the Raptors last season, is also unfamiliar with this Raptors.
Originally, Christie was quite happy when the team used it as a bargaining chip to Philadelphia.
Because no matter how happy he stays in Toronto, in Christie's opinion, it's better to go to Philadelphia to play the playoffs.
However......
After seeing the Raptors soar in the new season, Christie admitted that he was sore.
"Eric, go guard against Vince, I think Allen should be able to deal with Tracy."
Of course, the acid is sour, and life still has to continue.
Therefore, after calmly analyzing the situation, in Christie's opinion, under the premise that neither he nor Snow could tell the clone technique, they could only leave the smallest swinger on the Raptors' side to Iverson.
On the bench of the 76ers, what Christie, Snow and others, who were worried about their elder brother's defense, were not only not surprised, but even wanted to laugh after seeing the five starting points from John Davis.
John, is this your move?
In Brown's view, the lineup Johnson's lineup has no advantage in terms of height.
Before the game, Brown, who had carefully studied the Raptors, believed that the reason why the Raptors were able to play a role in New York before was entirely because of Van Gundy's defense lacked targetedness.
And Ewing's bad condition also caused the Knicks to lose their winning magic weapon that could have cried the Raptors.
But how can the light of fireflies compete with the bright moon?
The defense zone composed of Ratree and Willis was not easy to make a move in Brown's intracranial rehearsal, even if Sukamajo and others cheated.
Therefore, as long as the 76ers can protect the penalty area, why should they be afraid of the little Raptors?
In addition, on the offensive end, just relying on big money and rebounding, why should the Raptors fight against the 76ers?
So, to sum up, if it weren't for my always too steady, then in Brown's eyes, the game could have even been announced to be over in advance.
"Young people are still young people after all."
Looking at Davis, who was completely "unsuspended" on the bench next door, Larry Brown wrapped her hands and shook her head sneered.
Just as Brown issued a "death judgment notice" to the Raptors, on the court, as the referee threw the ball in the middle circle, the highly anticipated focus battle began.
Bang ————!
In the jump ball, Ratref defeated his fellow country friend Da Ben and jumped off the first attack ball for the 76ers.
Snow dribbled through the half.
I have to say that the 76ers' first attack tonight can tell at a glance that they are "old positions".
On the court, Snow, who received personal control treatment from the "old gangster", did not dare to neglect. His trembling expression seemed to be afraid that the basketball in his hand would be taken away by Jordan in the next second.
But in fact...
The current Jordan is fine to defend against the inside, but it is a paper tiger.
After spending a lot of time waiting for Iverson to run, the 76ers' first attack was made by Iverson to fight McGrady on the wing.
Although Tracy's younger brother defended the ball very seriously, Iverson wanted to swim past him, but it was no different from drinking water.
only......
Just the moment Iverson drifted past McGrady, he said that soon, Su Feng moved ahead and completed a perfect auxiliary defense for McGrady.
As the highest-height Raptor on the field, Su Feng knew very well that it was not realistic to expect McGrath to be able to defend Iverson's breakthrough.
But the problem is here.
With just this 76ers, the Raptors' group of forwards and guards are fighting against each other on the court, will they be worried about missing someone?
Originally, Christie made a big three-pointer with the Raptors last season.
But this season, the first two games combined, this guy threw 3 three-pointers in total.
You said that just with this kind of outside threat, what if the Raptors make 76ers shot?
"Wow, Su Feng's assisting defense is so critical. Iverson was stuck in the breakthrough line by him." said CCTV, Director Zhang.
"After all, Su Feng and Iverson have been teammates for two years. Not only do they know the depth of each other, but they also know the length of each other." Guidance Sun echoed on the side.
On the court, after Iverson was blocked by Su Feng, although Iverson's smile this season was far less than last season, Su Feng would not doubt Iverson's fighting spirit.
After twisting the ball for two turns, Iverson successfully seized the opportunity to take action.
Unfortunately, under the interference of Su Feng's long arm, the ball eventually deviated from the basket.
未—!
In the penalty area, in Brown's eyes, Ratree and Willis, who are more tall, were unable to grab the frontcourt rebound this time.
You know, a swingman lineup like the Raptors can also do a good job in rebounding protection.
To be honest, Riley may have problems, but his judgment is absolutely correct.
The Five Swingers are indeed the most unsolvable lineup on the basketball court in a sense.
Using fast back defense and assisted defense, the person who was responsible for rebounding on the court tonight was not just Da Ben.
Sukamaechonben and the five of them all have good rebounding protection abilities, and the athletic ability of these five people is more exaggerated than the other. Therefore, even if Willis and Ratree have a high advantage, they have to accept aviation control in Sky City.
To be continued...
