Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 369 Season Begins

On Friday, November 11th, the new NBA season officially begins.

At 19:30 in the evening, it was the last working day. It can be said that this is the most congested time in the San Francisco area, and the Golden Gate Bridge is particularly serious, almost blocked.

Blinken was sitting in the car at this time, dragging his tired body, looking at the road ahead that looked like a parking lot. Bored and tired of listening to the songs, he started tuning the car radio. After tuning a few times, suddenly the radio There, a strange voice came.

"Welcome to Warrior Radio, everyone. I'm your new friend Mike Breen. Unfortunately, our old announcer has retired. Fortunately, you have me!"

"Pfft..." Blinken, who was originally bored, laughed when he heard this, and thought: This commentary is really narcissistic, how could he praise himself so much?
"Welcome everyone to listen to tonight's game. Since this is the Warriors radio station, the game I'm bringing is naturally the Warriors' opening game. Regarding the opponent in the opening game, everyone is disappointed. The opponent is actually the Suns! Know what the league thinks? Such an important game will choose the Suns! Is this to give the Warriors a good start?"

It has to be said that Blinken doesn't really like basketball very much. The rudeness of black street sports does not conform to his noble status, but he still finds this commentary very interesting and is willing to listen to it.

Compared with basketball, he prefers movies and wants to be a film producer. Unfortunately, his wishes failed. In the end, he obeyed his stepfather's wishes and reluctantly received a doctorate from Columbia University Law School this year.

Then, through his excellent grades and disdainful efforts, coupled with the help of his father's little contacts, he successfully entered Dukaski's campaign team, thinking that he could successfully enter the White House this year.

Once you step into politics, you will work directly in the White House, and there is no better resume than that.

However, it never occurred to him that Dukaski, who was ten percentage points ahead of Bush and was expected to successfully run for the presidency, would die in a televised debate and eventually lose everything. What an idiot.

Thinking of this, Blinken couldn't help sighing, probably a sigh at himself for working so hard for so long but getting nothing.

"Wow! What did I see? There is Chambers in the Suns lineup? It seems that I have to change my opinion!" At this time, the exclamation of the commentator Brin interrupted Blinken's thoughts. Attracted his attention and made him focus on the radio again.

Brin's exclamation is actually just a means of attracting people. In fact, the Suns' lineup changes have already happened as early as the offseason. As a commentator, how could he not know?
During the offseason of this season, the Suns, who have been in a weak team, suddenly made a big move. They actually snatched Tom Chambers, who became a free agent, before everyone else, which made the Suns jump in one fell swoop. For the sake of the strong team in the Western Conference, he got rid of his former appearance.

"The Suns have had a big shakeup this season, and tonight's starting lineup is: Winston Garland, Dan Marley, Almon Gilliam, Tom Chambers and Mark West, so to speak, starting Among the five, four are new faces. OK! Not much to say, the center forwards of both sides have already walked into the center circle, ready to jump the ball, and the game will begin immediately!"

With the referee's whistle sounded, the Warriors officially started their first regular season game in the 88-89 season.

Malone's bounce has not been affected by the years at all. He took off quickly, overwhelmed West, and won the ball for the Warriors.

Li Weisi, who received the ball, was unlucky and directly chose a long pass, and found Richmond, who was going down fast. After receiving the ball, Richmond directly chose to dunk in the face of Marley, who was in the same class as him.

Marley, who is thin and thin, never imagined that his first ball on the official NBA court was to serve as a background board for his Olympic teammates.

"Nice dunk!" Richmond's forceful dunk made Breen exclaimed.

At the same time, Richmond's dunk also made himself accepted by the Warriors fans.

Originally, many fans complained that the rookie Richmond became the team's starter as soon as he joined the Warriors. After all, both Curry and Hornacek played well last season, and Richmond But in the Olympics, he didn't even win a gold medal, and the fans inevitably questioned Richmond's ability.

But now, in just the first few seconds of the game, Richmond made the fans feel that there seems to be something about this rookie.

The audience was not the only ones who were shocked. When returning to defense, Rodman cast a look full of resentment at Richmond. The fast break used to belong to him, but now it has become Richmond.

Damn it, obviously I came first!

When it was the Suns' turn to attack, the second-year rookie Garland had an amazing performance in the second half of last season. This season, he squeezed Long Hanjie to the bench in one fell swoop and became the team's starter.

Relying on his extremely fast first step, he unexpectedly broke through Li Weisi's defense abruptly.

Not only that, but his vision is quite good. After attracting the Warriors' defense, he distributed the ball to Marly in the corner. Marly is a pitcher, which is a sweet spot for him.

However, just as he was about to make a shot, Richmond, who had been attracted away, rushed back, jumped high, and directly blocked Marly's shot.

Although he just touched his finger, the trajectory of the basketball has changed. Rodman has judged the landing point in advance. He jumped high and grabbed the rebound before everyone else.

After landing, he immediately handed the ball to Li Weisi. Li Weisi made another long pass and found Mu Lin this time.

Mullin faced Gilliam, who was taller and stronger than him, who was standing in front of him. He actually adopted a European step layup, cheated Gilliam's center of gravity, and easily scored the ball.

The two fast breaks in the opening game directly beat the Suns 4:0.

This is not over yet. In the next round of the Suns, Chambers faced Rodman, who was in the dog skin plaster, and missed the shot and was protected by Malone for a rebound.

The Warriors counterattacked again. This time, the Suns had learned how to do it, and retreated quickly to prevent another counterattack by the Warriors.

But I never thought that Li Weisi didn't choose a long pass this time, but after he dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, when he was one step away from the three-point line, he directly chose a three-point shot!

In order to retreat quickly, Garland was not in a hurry to respond to Li Weisi's quick shot. When he wanted to interfere with Li Weisi's shot, Li Weisi had already completed the shot.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and got into the basket. The score reached 7:0 in an instant.

The Suns may have become stronger, but unfortunately, the opponent they met was the Warriors!
