The Toronto Raptors are the only NBA team not native to the United States. They are alone in the north, and their attention is very sparse. They are almost like a child raised by a stepmother whose father does not love her mother.

In the early years, when Vince Carter was still around, there was a craze for basketball.

But now, after the team was handed over to Chris Bosh, the representative of the 2003 Super Platinum Generation failed to deliver a good masterpiece.

Although there has been some progress this season and is currently ranked sixth in the Eastern Conference, it still hasn't caused any splash.

On the contrary, it was Bruce Lee's arrival that aroused the enthusiasm of local fans. The attendance rate in the arena finally reached 90%.

Canadians only follow the lead of Americans when it comes to culture and entertainment, so they are also very interested in Li Zhen. After all, this guy has just stepped into two boats in New York, and the sweetheart Princess Duff is still talking to the rich and famous Hilton.

battle.

Moreover, his albums are also selling like hotcakes in Canada.

In a sense, he may be one of the top ten most famous NBA players in Canada.

Many of them don't even know the name of the Italian they selected with the No. 1 pick in this year's draft, but Bruce Lee definitely impressed them.

Andrea Bagliani's name is indeed difficult to spell. However, this 2.11cm tall shooting forward does have Bruce Lee to thank.

As the No. 1 pick, he has barely produced 11.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists so far this season, which is quite inconsistent with his status as the No. 1 pick. There are at least seven or eight players in this draft who have performed better than him.

However, before that, when everyone criticized Li Zhen for being a parallel importer, no one said that Bagliani was a parallel importer.

This is the benefit of being remote.

Bagliani himself is also very responsible. He did not make any noise in the media. He just played steadily.

If Li Zhen hadn't arrived and let the media bring up the drama of the No. 1 pick vs. No. 3 overall pick, he would have been almost forgotten by people.

And even though the media's gimmick is that the No. 1 pick is fighting against the No. 3 overall pick.

But in fact, Li Zhen's main opponent is TJ Ford, who was handpicked by Allen Iverson to be the fastest point guard in the NBA.

Although this sentence contains the element of "perfunctory praise", the fact that TJ Ford can establish himself in the NBA with a height of 175 and play at an elite level is enough to prove his speed.

Li Zhen deliberately competed with him for two rounds. Finally, it was determined that TJ Ford's speed should be around 95, which was slightly faster than his own speed of 93. But it was not a level faster.

TJ's attack ability is very strong. His speed and explosive power are better than Li Zhen's. His agility, coordination, jumping, strength and physical fitness are much better than Li Zhen's. If he is taller and maintains this level of talent, he

At least at an All-Star level.

But unfortunately, his size limits his limits.

However, he still scored 19 points over Li Zhen.

On the other hand, Li Zhen also scored 18 points on him, and his shooting percentage was over 40%.

TJ's height is too short, and it is difficult for him to stop Li Zhen's offense on the defensive end. Li Zhen's rhythm and ball control ability make him always out of position.

If there was a mutual explosion in scoring, then in terms of assists, TJ Ford undoubtedly lost. He only got 8 assists in the whole game, while Li Zhen had 13.

Another super point guard-level single-game data.

However, it is a pity that the Lakers lost this game.

The exhausted Li Zhen did what he was capable of in the 26 minutes he played, and his performance was impeccable. But when Andrew Bynum was on the court with him at the same time, the incongruity was visible to the naked eye.

Nahm even refused to cover Li Zhen, and his movement was always in the opposite direction.

This allowed the Raptors to seize the opportunity at the end of the third quarter and the beginning of the fourth quarter. With Bagliani hitting consecutive 3-pointers from the outside, they widened the point difference in one fell swoop.

In the end, he won the victory with a near miss of 109:99.

After the game, all the major commentaries read: No. 1 pick Bagliani scored 22 points and 5 rebounds to defeat Bruce Lee.

This made Li Zhen a little unhappy. He felt that his performance was no worse than Bagliani.

Moreover, if his playing time can last a little longer, maybe he will be reversed.

So he trained more actively after the game, and he couldn't wait to let more sweat out. Because in the next week, the Los Angeles Lakers will play against the Portland Trail Blazers twice, once in the Rose Garden.

Arena, once at Staples.

Li Zhen has great respect for Brandon Roy. Compared with No. 1 pick Barriani, he is more willing to regard Brandon as his biggest imaginary enemy. He is very much looking forward to performing well in the game with Roy.

At this time, the NBA's official announcement of the All-Star candidate list also caused an uproar.

Li Zhen's name is clearly listed.

This made the basketball media collectively explode. They all felt that the NBA was playing nonsense. They believed that this would become the biggest farce since the 2003 All-Star Game. Because Chinese fans would firmly send the yellow-skinned Li Zhen to the All-Star Game.

And Li Zhen's performance is far worse than Yao Huang back then.

"This is stupid arrogance!!"

The elder Winter angrily denounced the Sports Illustrated report on the plane. In the report, the reporter used the words David Stern kneeling to Asia. He criticized David Stern for his shameless flattery in order to promote the market.

They judged the nomination condescendingly and believed that Li Zhen was not worthy of the title of candidate.

"If Bruce had black skin, everyone would call him a rising star, or even say he was a perfect magician. I swear those guys would do that." Old Winter rarely got angry: "Every team has three

Four or more have been selected to the list, Bruce is already the second best player on our team, why can’t he be included in this candidate list?”

"This is a kind of redirected discrimination!!"

Old Winter became angrier as he talked.

All members of the Lakers coaching staff support him. Everyone believes that Li Zhen has not been viewed objectively.

To be honest, Li Zhen didn't pay too much attention to this matter. He is a pragmatic activist. He has been actively training to make his sweat flow more. Sweat is what puts his arrogant face on the line.

Weapons at his feet. Li Zhen didn't want to fight a war of words at the expense of others. It was all meaningless.

Just like when he was in high school in New York, everyone said he couldn't make the school team.

But he went in anyway.

Then, he played the best point guard position in the Ivy League, and then he went to the Pacific Division.

Along the way, he has been ignored and looked down upon too much.

But his footsteps kept moving forward.

Those who say that he can't do this or that can't do anything, have long been hiding in unknown corners.

Li Zhen sometimes really wants to read a few lines of poetry to these guys, if they can understand them.

listen!

Ercao's body and name will be destroyed, but the flow of rivers will not be destroyed forever!
