"Elgin, you contacted so many media outlets to promote our team. Are you sure we can win?" Feng Yu came to their home stadium to watch the game, especially against Paul Allen's team. If they lose, it will be too embarrassing.
"Boss, I asked Coach Karl, and he said he found the Blazers' weakness. We will win this game. Also, the Blazers' current lineup is not complete. Their point guard and center are injured, and they only have substitutes. They might not have an advantage over us. Pippen's condition has deteriorated. Although he is not as bad as Kemp, he is not as good as the Bulls. "
Feng Yu nodded with satisfaction. It does not matter if they can enter the playoffs this year. As long as they can beat the Blazers, even if it is just one win, it will be enough.
When Feng Yu appeared at the Wind and Rain Arena, the stadium erupted in cheers. Many fans held up placards thanking Feng Yu for his transformation of the team and thanking Feng Yu for bringing a new arena to the city.
Feng Yu is one of the shareholders of the Wind and Rain Arena. Although he is the youngest of the three shareholders, he is still one of the owners.
The Lakers feel awkward playing in this arena now. The Wind and Rain Arena. Everyone knows it is the home stadium of the Wind and Rain Arena. The Lakers are doing better and have a more glorious history. Why can Buss build a new arena for the team? Even if he is just a shareholder, it will be fine.
The big screen showed a close-up of Paul Allen. Paul Allen has an arrogant look on his face. It is as though the game has not started, and his team has already won.
Many fans were shocked to see Feng Yu, the owner of the team, appear in front of the stadium he invested in. It's his home ground, and it's his home ground.
Of course, the reporters from other TV stations gave Feng Yu a long time, but Feng Yu's baseball cap and oversized sunglasses blocked his face. Many people guessed that Feng Yu must have an injury on his face. Otherwise, why would he not show his face?
There were also fans who speculated that Feng Yu knew that his team would lose, so he was too embarrassed to show his face. This time, Paul Allen had brought more than 2,000 Portland fans to cheer for the Blazers. They are confident of winning, and Wind and Rain Arena's tickets are sold out.
After two beeps, Feng Yu took out his phone and saw that Paul Allen had sent him a text message.
"Feng, if you beg me now, I can tell my team to win within 10 points."
Damn, he's too arrogant!
Feng Yu showed the text to Coach Karl. "You said we would win this time. If we lose, I will lose all my face."
Karl said proudly, "The team's tactics have matured, and the youngsters have begun to adapt to the pace of the game. Because of the lockout this year, the competition schedule was particularly tight. Many of those old guys were injured. Even if they weren't injured, their stamina couldn't keep up. Although our youngsters are not as good as them, if we run, those old guys can only wait to eat our dust! "
The whistle for the match was blown, but the Wind and Rain team lost the jump ball. The Blazers started the first point.
Paul Allen looked at Feng Yu proudly. The gap is too big. He wants his team to suppress the Wind and Rain team from the start. He wants to embarrass Feng Yu!
The Blazers scored the first point easily, and the players who scored the points were celebrating when they saw the Wind and Rain players running to the front court.
The Wind and Rain Team started the backcourt, and after three long passes, the ball was passed to Carter. There was no one within 3 meters behind Carter, and he jumped up and did a 360-degree slam dunk. The crowd cheered.
Feng Yu clapped. Just for the viewing value and the fans' fondness for him, it is worth it to pick Carter as the No. 1 draft pick.
For the first three points, the Blazers attacked in the middle of the court. They were steady and successful.
But the Wind and Rain team also succeeded in the first three points, and each attack lasted less than 10 seconds. The shortest attack lasted only 6 seconds. When the Blazers scored, the Wind and Rain players rushed into the middle of the court and scored easily. All three points were dunks.
Carter and Pierce both wanted to be the leader of the team. Carter was the top pick, but Pierce was also the eighth pick. Both of them became famous at a young age. Carter was better at dunking, but Pierce was more accurate at jumping. They both had their own strengths.
That's why both of them are very active when they run. Every fast break, both of them are at the front.
The Blazers finally missed the fourth point, and Rodman grabbed the rebound. This time, the Blazers' defense is faster, and Carter and Pierce did not get a chance to attack. But after Carter rushed in, he threw the ball to the corner. No one knows when Lewis was standing there.
It was as simple as training. He jumped, shot, and scored. It's a three-pointer!
Beep ~ ~ ~
The Blazers called a timeout.
Paul Allen's face was gloomy. He thought that the Wind and Rain team would be the first to call a timeout. Why is it the other way around?
It has only been two minutes since the start of the match, and they are trailing by three points. This is impossible! The Wind and Rain team can't even make it to the playoffs. How can they suppress them?
Feng Yu stood up and high-fived all the Wind and Rain players. "Good job! We must win today!"
Karl called his players together. "Alston, you are a street-ball player, and your ball-handling skills are very good. I need you to use some fancy moves to attract the opponent's openings. But remember, you are a point guard. Passing is your priority. Carter and Pierce, you two pay attention to the openings. Lewis, you are responsible for blocking for Alston. Dennis, I will leave the rebounds to you. Run! Make sure you run! We must wear them down! "
It was a small ball strategy. They did not even have a center. The center was Rodman. He is a monster rebounder who takes single-digit shots every game.
The timeout ended, and the Blazers scored again. This time, their defense was very good, and the Wind and Rain team lost their chance to attack.
But the Wind and Rain Point Guard was too infuriating. He dribbled all over the court. He had already broken through, but he turned around and came out again. He even hooked his finger at the Blazers Point Guard. It was obvious he wanted a one-on-one.
The Blazers Point Guard went up, but the Wind and Rain Point Guard threw the ball towards the basket. Carter fell from the sky and caught the ball with his backhand for a dunk.
He hung for a while before quickly returning to defend. At the same time, his hands mimicked a motorcycle throttle action. He was very arrogant!
After three rounds, the Blazers Point Guard did not play according to strategy. He started to challenge Alston frequently. He was stronger and had the advantage.
The rest of the Blazers, including Pippen, could not get the ball and could only run back and forth.
Coach Karl smiled. The Blazers had fallen into a trap. This was the Wind and Rain team's rhythm. At this pace, the Blazers' old guys will have problems with their stamina!
