010: Prisoners
Portland International Airport is overcrowded. It seems that today I came from other places to participate in today's Fan Meeting Day event.
Portland Blazers in this period can be regarded as a highly popular team.
Although the Blazers only won the championship once in the ancient times, the Bill Watton era.
Although they have never entered the finals after 1992, although they missed Michael Jordan at the draft conference and became people's laughing stocks.
But one of the facts that many people do not know are that since 1982 to the present, the Blazers have appeared in the playoffs for 21 consecutive years!
This continuous record of entering the playoffs is not only the first of the NBA. In the entire North American Sports Alliance, it is also the second place.
As a traditional strong team, the pioneer's popularity in Portland is naturally high.
Walking on the streets of Portland, fans wearing the Blazers team everywhere can be seen everywhere.
There are several giant billboards in the city center, all of which are the promotional posters of the Blazers in the new season.
Wayne and Kody went straight to the target.
Just on the plane, they had already ate the plane meal. So after arriving, the two did not stroll around and took a car to the home of the Torrent team.
Portland is near the Pacific Ocean, wet and cold in winter, and hot and dry in summer.
This climate is most suitable for planting roses.
Therefore, there are various rose plantations in Portland, and the Rose Festival will be held in June each year.
The Blazers' home also has a very romantic name -Rose Garden.
Weine has always believed that in the future, the Blazers team called Mosida Center because of selling the rights of the stadium, which is a very stupid thing.
After arriving at the Rose Garden, Wayne was completely calm by the spectacular scene in front of him.
The large gymnasium is equipped with a bunch of fans with dense hemp, and this big battle has only seen during the military training review.
In addition to the fans, there is also the performance of the lays and mascots at the door of the court.
Wayne was not interested in these, but the Cordi beside him showed a satisfying smile ...
The atmosphere at the scene was very happy, but in the crowd, Wayne also heard a lot of scolding.
"What we need is a real player, not a group of small bruises!"
"This team simply renamed the Portland prison team. These players are simply unreasonable!"
"Pippen and Sabanis left, but the person who should leave didn't leave!"
"If you don't even care about your own players, how can we expect the team to achieve good results?"
Obviously, fans who come to the Rose Garden are not so friendly.
Some people gather here just to vent their dissatisfaction.
Speaking of which, the title of "Portland Prison" is indeed started during this period.
Later, many Blazers fans even called the "prison era" in the history of the Blazers in the history of the Blazers.
During this period, although the Blazers' records were still speaking, but because of the continuous trouble of outside the field, the relationship between the team and the fans had been tense.
No wonder, the team will make this fan meeting so sensational.
Steve Patson, the general manager of the new team this summer, is committed to reorganizing the image of the team. To this end, they even took off at the draft of this year.
Exaggerated striker
Of course, more importantly, he is the son of a police officer, a good man who has obeyed the law from a young age.
And this time, the fans of fans must also be one of the means of Patterson's image of the team.
"Go, Wayne, let's enter the field." After all, Kody was not the first time to experience this scene. The light car road took Wayne to bypass the crowd and walked to a place similar to the VIP channel.
At the entrance door, there were two strong men wearing sunglasses in sunglasses. Their dress was like a agent who came out of the movie.
Wayne hurriedly pinched the entry voucher in advance, while Kody walked in front of the two before he took the entry voucher from the pocket of the coat.
Although Kody thought it was handsome just now, the attention of the two "agents" fell on Wayne alone.
His height of 2 meters 11 is really dazzling!
Entering the inside of the rose garden, people are much less instantly, and the surroundings are no longer crowded.
After all, the entry voucher is not so easy to get.
If Kody had a uncle working here, Wayne now estimates that he can only call outside.
The fans met in the No. 1 training hall of the Rose Garden. Wayne and Kody just walked in, and the Blazers' players entered the back.
Suddenly, there was screaming in the training hall. Although there were not many people who could enter the venue, the small training ground was still stuffed.
The fans standing in the middle of the crowd squeezed forward desperately, or tiptoe, hoping to see the outside.
But Wayne did not have such troubles. The vision was so convenient. No one could block him at all.
The Pioneer's players waved with a smile with the fans in the field, and stopped from time to time to sign.
Although now, these players seem to be amiable.
But looking at those faces, Wayne frowned.
My God, no wonder the Blazers will be called the prison team in recent years. No wonder some fans outside will be so angry.
Look at these grandfathers, it's not a fuel -saving lamp!
Walking in the front of Rahid Wallace, the nickname "roar the sky".
The most worried that the Blazers of the Blazers of the Blazers in each game were not that he did not play well, but was worried that he would apply for technical fouls for himself.
41 technical fouls in a single season, ask who else.
A few years ago, he also threw the towel "slap" directly on the face of the old senior, Sabanis's face, which caused Sabinis to leave the Blazers angrily.
In addition to the game, Wallace is also troublesome outside the court.
Last season, when Wallace was searched by the police at the highway, the police found that there was a large hidden in his Hummer. Wallace was caught on the spot and was banned by the league for 7 games.
And this is not the first time Wallace has made a moth in recent years.
Behind Wallace, the "Little Flying Mouse" Damon Stardmed Mel exposed white teeth. This best rookie winner looks like a full -name idol.
But don't be blinded by his appearance and block, this glorious deeds are a lot at all.
Last season, Stadmel and the head coach completely turned over, making the Blazers a messy dressing room, which became even more smoky.
Of course, the big thing, the "mouse" has not been mixed less.
On the other side, a doll -faced Zach Lamphorf was fighting with his teammates in training last season. The guy was an out -of -the -box bastard until he settled in Memphis.
At this time, he took a photo with the little fans and claimed to be "Kobe Killer". Luben Patterson, it is said that no one in the locker room likes him, because his temper is too hot.
Most of the evil men of the court are hot to the opponent, and Patterson is extremely unhappy even to his teammates.
It was this "great man" with Rando in the training ground last season.
Of course, how can you forget that he has been accused of strong nanny ...
The remaining people such as Bonci Wales, Jeff Mcingneis and others are not good.
Strong X, Polying, Violence, and the locker room contradictions ... You can find a representative of an example in the Blazers.
"It's excellent, this lineup is really terrible." Wayne wiped sweat. He didn't know that the former general manager of the Blazers was too much iron, so he dared to gather these grandfathers together to play together.
The key is that this is like this. The Blazers can still enter the playoffs in the western year in the western part of the strong. There is no excuse to rebuild ...
Of course, today the Blazers of the Blazers are in suits and leather shoes, and they are decent. They do not have the appearance of the daily stadium thugs.
After all, this activity was originally held by the team to rectify the team's image and pull the distance from the fans.
The players are also very clear about this, so no one is chaotic.
In the cheers of the fans, the Blazers' "prisoners" walked to the center of the court, and then spoke a few beautiful words of official tone to look forward to the new season.
In the end, when the Blazers coach Morris Chix spoke, Wayne found that in the vast crowd, Rahid Wallace looked at himself.
One second after the two, Wallette's face showed a disturbing smile.
Wayne was stared at a little uncomfortable, but his height was indeed no way to escape. It was too eye -catching.
"Okay, then now, it's the most anticipated part of everyone! See which lucky one will get the opportunity to compete with the players!"
After the Blazers coach finished this sentence, the atmosphere was pushed to a climax.
The most special link of the fans' meeting this time officially kicked off.
The Blazers will send Studmel, Randolf and Wallace to play. The three of them will choose a lucky fan, and they have 5 goals with them.
This kind of activity is very common in the NBA. Many players will appear on the field during the offseason to interact with fans.
But at the fans' meeting, the Blazers team was for the first time.
Studmel picked a small fan as his opponent, and Randov picked a very famous street player in Portland.
When it was Wallace's turn, the eyes of "roar the sky" stared at Wayne.
"I have observed you for a long time, kid, just you!"
Wallace said, Chong Weine hooked his fingers.
Wayne's height, this time "harmed" him.
"Yeah! Really you! I just say you have a great chance of being selected, hahahaha! Go to Wayne, fight with NBA players, isn't this what you dream of!"
The moment Wayne was selected, Kody was orgasm and pushed Wenen directly.
Wallette looked at Wayne with a smile, as if he had found fun.
Wayne immediately became nervous. Although he was on the training ground in the past week, he didn't have a little bit with Tony Allen.
But no matter how do Teacher Tony say now, it is just a NCAA player.
Wallace now, but the NBA All -Star level like a fake bag!
Last season, he was able to score 18.1 points.
"Come on, let me see if you are empty." Wallace held Wayne's neck with a hand. "I don't pick the weak, take out some strength, let me don't be so boring, okay?
"
This Nima, still intimidated?
Wayne was a little overwhelmed, at this time, the system interface suddenly emerged.
Chapter completed!
