"Congratulations, Conley and Lee, you are finally scheduled to play. I think I can relax a little bit." Gasol congratulated the two on being able to play in the game.

"No, I think you still can't relax. They are not in the same position as you." Milicic hit Gasol mercilessly.

"Hahaha, thank you for your congratulations. The two of us can finally play, but you still can't relax." Li Tianshen made a last-ditch attack.

"No, you go on the court. With your three-pointers and Conley's threading the needle, the pressure on the inside will be much easier."

"Finally I can relax a little bit. Conley, I'm optimistic about you." Lowry and Conley are in a competitive relationship, but Lowry is not strong now and is very self-aware.

"Lori, you are right. But Paul, I feel that you are more suitable to be a head coach than a rookie coach." Conley's words filled the entire locker room with laughter, and the gloomy locker room finally had a hint of life.

I saw that everyone was still complaining.

"Ahem..." Li Tian, ​​who was in the locker room near the door, saw the coach coming in and coughed a few times to remind everyone.

"Coach." The locker room was quiet for a moment, and everyone started arranging their equipment.

Seeing the sudden silence in the locker room, Mark was not embarrassed at all. He had experienced it countless times as an assistant coach.

"Hello everyone, there is news announced today. Conley and Li Tian will also be put into the activated lineup. I hope everyone will perform well and win this game." When the news was announced, I thought it would be welcomed by everyone, but all the players There was no expression at all.

"Coach, we will perform well and strive to contribute to the team." Only Conley and Li Tian expressed their determination.

...

After receiving the news that Li Tian might be scheduled to play.

China has also begun to try to live broadcast a Grizzlies game. Li Tian once also attracted a lot of attention, especially after his phenomenal performance in the NCAA.

"I don't know if Li Tian will play today." Yu Jia said.

"Let's analyze it. The last two games of the Grizzlies were all because the substitutes were too weak, which led to the final collapse of the team. The first game was against the Demon Blades, and the second game was against the Pacers, who had everyone on their side. The Grizzlies' main If the coach wants to change the status quo, the best way is to make adjustments to the substitutes. In these two games, the Grizzlies' No. 4 rookie and Li Tian did not play. The best way for the Grizzlies to change is to bring in the rookies. , on the one hand, it is to test the strength of the rookies, on the other hand, it can also stimulate the substitute players." Zhang Weiping's long analysis.

"Yes, I am also looking forward to whether Li Tian will perform as well as he did in the preseason." Yu Jia has always been paying attention to Li Tian's performance.

In the first quarter of the game, the two teams played very anxiously, with the score difference always within 5 points. The Grizzlies ended the first quarter with a 3-point lead.

"Hey, Li Tian and Conley still have no chance to play. Guy performed very well in the first quarter." Yu Jia sighed.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Gay missed his first two shots, but Durant, who was guarded by him, succeeded in two consecutive singles against Gay.

Seattle took the lead.

Mark was very dissatisfied with Guy's defensive attitude.

"Conley, Lee, you are ready to play." Mark hopes that if Li Tian can perform as he did in the preseason, he will successfully complete the task he assigned to Li Tian.

"Conley, you have to sort out your offense; Lee, your main purpose is to lock down Durant. I know you and he are old rivals. Your current situation is all caused by him. Lock him up. This is My only request is also the criterion for whether you can get a chance to play in the next game."

Mark used Durant to stimulate Li Tian.

"Coach, I won't miss this opportunity." Li Tian was full of confidence.

"Director Zhang, Li Tian is starting to warm up." Yu Jia said happily.

"Yes, Li Tian finally got a chance to play. It seems that the head coach of the Grizzlies is still good. If it were me, I would let Li Tian play in the first game." Zhang Weiping was also very happy. He did not diss Mark, but just complained. A wave.

"Li, do you need my help?" Conley asked Li Tian during the warm-up.

"Hahaha, no special help is needed. Your passing is very accurate, just like in the preseason." Li Tian replied to Conley.

The two were substituted and high-fived Lowry to encourage each other.

"Li, I know your grudges. We will help you, but the premise is that you have to guard against him. Come on, boy." Gasol saw Li Tian's nervousness and stepped forward to comfort him.

"It's okay, I'm just a little nervous for my first appearance."

"Barkley, look, that Chinese boy is here." Kenny looked at Barkley teasingly.

"Yes, I like him very much. I always have. Even when injuries occurred, I was very optimistic about him. I followed his preseason games. I don't know why his offensive methods disappeared after the injury. But I think his defense is very strong." Barkley has been paying attention to Li Tian for more than a day or two, and he clearly understands Li Tian's current situation.

"So you think highly of Li?"

"Yes, I am very optimistic about him. I don't know how his offense is, but his defense is definitely better than Durant. Durant will be locked up by him." Barkley firmly believed.

"Haha, his injury was probably caused by Durant."

"Yes, this is a battle of revenge. I am even more looking forward to his performance."

Back on the court, Conley held the ball and launched an attack.

Seattle's lineup is very high. Conley discovered this problem and called Li Tian to pick and roll for him on the first offense.

Li Tian moved from the weak side to the high position and helped Conley block Wilkins who was following behind.

Conley suddenly accelerated and drove straight to the basket.

Durant, who was guarding Li Tian, ​​accelerated towards the basket, preparing to force Conley to stop. At this time, Durant was still weak and his defense was not a threat.

Wilkins followed suit.

Li Tian reversely pulled down the three-point line.

Conley saw Durant, who was guarding Li Tian, ​​double-teaming him, and realized that Li Tian would be open. He suddenly turned around and saw Li Tian retreating towards the three-point line.

The moment Durant came over to defend, he hit the ball directly from Durant's crotch and passed it to Li Tian.

"Wow, this Grizzlies guard is so good. It seems like he must have a good relationship with Lee."

"That's for sure, even if you don't look at who he passed the ball to and whose crotch he passed it from." Kenny did not forget to despise Barkley.

Barkley didn't care at all about Kenny's disdain.

Li Tian, ​​who received Conley's pass, took off directly without making any adjustments.

Raise your hand!

Fighting!

Three-point shot!

"Wow, Li Tian shot faster than in the preseason. I don't know if this goal can be scored. This is the first shot in his career." Zhang Weiping shouted excitedly.

Yu Jia, who was sitting aside, stared straight-eyed. This old man was so forgetful.

Yu Jia was also infected by Coach Zhang, "Yes, it's too fast. I remember that Ah Lian's shooting speed seemed to have increased a lot."

"Hey, I know the reason for this." Zhang Weiping sold a lawsuit.

"Director Zhang, tell me quickly. What's the reason?" Yu Jia couldn't wait.

"I heard from Yao Ming that when the two of them were selected for the NBA, they had been training together."

Yu Jia didn't have time to think, "Wow, that's great. The ball is close and the three-pointer is scored. This is the first time Li Tian has scored in his career."

On the other hand, Zhang Weiping behaved a little calmly.

The basketball went hollow into the net and made a three-pointer.

"That's great, Lee." Conley and Li Tian bumped their chests in celebration.

Just when Gasol was about to reach out and touch his head to kill him, he noticed that Li Tian had changed his hairstyle.

He suddenly slapped Li Tian's butt to celebrate.
Chapter completed!
