Chapter 669: The Beginning of the First Show (14)

*Holidays, Chapter [-]

Qin Yi also called or sent text messages to thank everyone for their support.

Among them, Scott, Baucus and others took the initiative to stand up and support, which made Qin Yi sigh that the few pounds of coffee sent out from time to time were finally not in vain. These guys are still very reliable at critical times.

However, people like George in California and others tactfully revealed some support for the Cowboys after Qin's Liquor did public relations.

This can clearly see the distance of closeness, but Qin Yi hates dealing with hypocrisy, but he is not stupefied, so this old fox-like guy still called and exchanged warm greetings.

Time soon came to the evening, fans arrived one after another, and the entire arena soon became lively. Of course, these are fans of the Blazers, and the voices were naturally overwhelmingly biased towards the Blazers. Cheer and shout, let the Blazers in the locker room The morale of the players is boosted!

On the Cowboys side, the young players curled their lips to express their disdain. The old guys like Duncan, Ginobili, and Garnett have long been accustomed to this. Like the head coach Tom, it seems that they have not heard it. Why do what!
Qin Yi led his small team to stand in an inconspicuous corner without disturbing the players.

Sousa glanced at the roaring stadium and chuckled: "Should we be thankful? At least the fans didn't say something offensive against the Cowboys."

"Aha, maybe we should thank God!" Amanda sarcastically glanced at the fans, and really prayed!
This carefree girl has always been emotional and never hides her preferences. At the moment, the fans support the Trail Blazers, which is the opposite of her who supports the Cowboys, so she directly treats the fans as enemies
This undisguised innocence, like a little girl who hasn't grown up, made Susa and the others laugh secretly. Sara even stretched out her little paw and secretly scratched her waist a few times, itching her so quickly Shaking his body to dodge.

Ke Luo curled his lips and explained: "Don't think that they are all good people. If you attack the Cowboys at this time, it will only discredit the Trail Blazers. Otherwise, we will see another scene!"

Susa and the others pouted and did not refute.

"Okay, do we have to discuss this?" Rachel took Susa's arm and walked towards the court full of joy, "The Cowboys must be the best, we just need to enjoy the game!"

The girls swarmed towards the court, leaving Qin Yi behind.

The guy shook his head and smiled, encouraged the players a few more words, and followed quickly.

The game is about to start, players from both sides are on the field, the Blazers side, led by point guard Lillard, guard Colum, forwards Plumlee, Aminu, and power forward Feng Lai, formed a five-man starting lineup.

On the Cowboys side, there are three insiders (forward and center) of Duncan, Towns and Garnett, plus point guard Rubio and guard LaVine. The identities of the six sit firmly on the bench.

It's not that Ginobili's strength as a defender is not good, on the contrary, it is precisely because he values ​​him that he is hidden on the bench. If any of the five players who start later does not perform well or is tired, he will put the opponent Substituting the game, relying on abundant physical strength, leading the team to continue to score,
His positioning is a link between the past and the future: to maintain the advantage during the rest of the main force, and when the main force is not in the state, he will fight as a surprise soldier.

At the beginning of the game, in order to facilitate the fast break and defense, the guards and forwards of both sides stood in the opponent's half and their own, respectively, and Duncan jumped the ball with Plumlee of the Blazers.

Both sides are [-]-meter-[-] big men, and their bounce is also very good, but the enhanced Duncan has the advantage. He jumped a head higher than Plumlee. With a big wave of his palm, he slapped the basketball towards Trail Blazers half!

LaVine, who had been waiting for a long time, jumped up and took the ball, and then wanted to use his small, flexible and fast guard to have a wonderful fast break, but he didn't want Aminu and Aminu who were in charge of defense. Feng Lai immediately came up to double-team!

The captain of the Blazers, point guard Lillard, also immediately led the remaining two back to the basket to defend, and quickly posted their respective defensive targets according to the previous tactical allocation.

But the Cowboys are not wooden people. Towns and Garnett ran inside the three-point line and found a good shooting position. Duncan, who has improved his speed, has even rushed to the opponent's basket!

Rubio, who wanted the ball from LaVine, immediately seized the opportunity and threw the ball above the opponent's basket with a high-altitude throw. Duncan, who had practiced many tactics, made an emergency stop and jumped one step behind Pu Lumley jumped a foot higher!
I saw him holding the ball in his hands, taking advantage of the opportunity to slam dunk vigorously, with a bang, an alley-oop slam dunk tactic specially designed for Duncan's take-off advantage, and he scored a morale-boosting goal at the beginning of the game!

The audience immediately booed.

Of course, many people gave Duncan applause. Although the opening time was less than 20 seconds, Duncan's performance was enough to surprise people. Damn, this is not an old uncle, he is clearly a young man in his prime!

Qin Yi and the others also laughed. Well, the start was not bad. Not only did they show momentum, but it also put a lot of pressure on the pioneers.

At this time, many fans and friends watching the Cowboys game in front of the screen also cheered endlessly, but many people also wondered, Duncan's mentality is completely different from last year. Could it be possible to rest completely for half a year? Have such a big effect?

Some players with options or free agents have also secretly moved their minds. Maybe they can take a good rest for half a year while they haven't signed a contract yet?
After Duncan scored a slam dunk, his face was cute and expressionless, and he was actually very happy in his heart, but he immediately led the players back to defense.

The Trail Blazers didn't seem to be affected. After serving the ball, point guard Lillard jogged with the ball while observing the running positions of his own players. Towns defending from a meter away.

However, the lateral movement of the big man Towns is very dominant, and the Cowboys have always adopted defensive tactics and never double-teamed, so that the other players of the Blazers could not get a good shooting position.

Lillard passed the ball several times, but the ball finally returned to him, the point guard. There was not much time, and he couldn't find an assist opportunity. Lum, suddenly ran out of the three-point line very tacitly, and the inexperienced LaVine suddenly lost the defense
It was too late to catch up again, Lillard seized the opportunity to pass the ball immediately, Colum flew a jumper, whoosh, a three-pointer!
The audience cheered immediately!
The supporters of the Cowboys, mainly Susa and the others, beat their legs and stomped their feet regretfully. Only Qin Yi smiled calmly. After all, the Blazers have never been an underdog, and it is wishful thinking to want to win easily.

The Cowboys players on the field comforted each other and began to organize the next attack.

Rubio still wanted to make another high-altitude throw with Duncan, but this time the Blazers were already on guard, and they had been eyeing this move for a long time. In addition, it was not a fast break, and the inside line was quite congested at the moment, even though Duncan jumped higher , but screwed together, he didn't have a good shooting opportunity, so he simply gave the ball to Garnett!

The Blazers' Aminu stepped forward to interfere, but Garnett has rarely shot, and at this time, he raised the ball and made a feint, a hook, and threw the ball to LaVine on the left.

The young man missed a three-pointer, and he was blaming himself in his heart. When he saw the ball coming, he subconsciously copied it in his hand, jumped back, and took off again. With a pop, he scored a three-pointer from the bottom corner!

There was sparse applause on the court, but Susa and the others smiled happily, and Qin Yi also applauded lightly, thinking that it was not bad. At least for now, the Cowboys are still playing well.
