Chapter 138 The ban is lifted and the comeback is full of blood!
·
Zhuan Zhu
December 12, US time.
The Phoenix Suns traveled to Toronto to challenge the Raptors.
The fans paid a lot of attention to this game, because it was Chen Yan's first game after lifting the ban.
For Chen Yan, he was lucky to meet the Raptors in the first game of his comeback.
Although the current position of the Raptors is No. 5 in the East, this ranking seems to be okay, but their record can only be ranked No. 9 in the West, and it is difficult to enter the playoffs...
At the pre-match press conference, Pierce's big mouth came again.
"Using his fists to attract attention on the court, and writing songs off the court to attract attention. Compared with NBA players, I think he is more like an Internet celebrity!"
Pierce is still unhappy with Chen Yan, it seems that the last confrontation was taught by Chen Yan was not bad enough...
"How will the Raptors win the game tonight?" The reporter then asked.
"Just fight around me." Pierce said confidently.
During the warm-up, Chen Yan and Pierce had a face-to-face meeting.
"Boy, welcome to my place. Have you washed your ass? I'll teach you a lesson tonight!" Pierce's trash talk came before the game even started.
Chen Yan said calmly: "This is not your territory. To Toronto, you are just a mercenary. No one really likes you."
Chen Yan's trash talk has always hit the opponent's most vulnerable point. For Pierce, the most vulnerable point in his heart is that he was abandoned by his parent team, the Celtics, who has been trained for many years, and came to this city without the slightest sense of belonging.
"Come on, you don't deserve to say such things, you outsider." Pierce said firmly.
"Look around, are there more fans wearing your jersey or more wearing mine." Chen Yan pointed to the auditorium.
Pierce casually glanced around the field, why are there all fans wearing Chen Yan's No. 0 jersey?
Fake!
Am I on the wrong set?
Upon closer inspection, all those wearing Chen Yan's jerseys were of Chinese descent.
The current total population of Toronto is about 430 million, of which 46 are Chinese, more than 10%!
Toronto is a metropolis in terms of city size, but in terms of the ball market, it can only be ranked fourth in the NBA. Because it is not in the United States, its exposure is much lower than other teams.
Coupled with the fact that people in Toronto prefer ice hockey to basketball, as well as background and record, the Raptors' home attendance rate in the new season has been only about 7%.
Tonight is the first time the Raptors have a full house this season, and 3-4% of the fans in the arena are here for Chen Yan!
Seeing the packed stadium, the general manager of the Raptors couldn't help sighing, if only the team played against the Suns every day...
Soon, the starting lineups of both sides were projected on the large electronic screen in the arena.
Toronto Raptors starting lineup: Calderon, Anthony - Parker, Paul - Pierce, Chris - Bosh, Bargnani.
Phoenix Suns starting lineup: Nash, Chen Yan, Raja Bell, Diaw, Stoudemire.
Chen Yan and Raja Bell returned to the starting lineup at the same time in this game. The sun was full of confidence. After high-fiving each other, the main players walked to the center of the field.
The Toronto Raptors get the first possession.
Calderon began to organize after halftime.
Bosh got stuck inside and asked for the ball.
Bosh in the Raptors period was the core style of play, which was different from the blue-collar style of play in the Heat period.
Bosh also has this ability. He has a precise mid-range and long-range shot, outside-level movement speed, various gorgeous footwork inside, and almost unsolvable face-to-frame skills among power forwards.
In today's league, it is estimated that only Nuo Tianwang and Stoudemire, who is facing him tonight, dare to say that their face-to-frame skills are more stable than Bosh.
After Calderon hung the ball in, the Raptors pulled all the players outside the three-point line.
The Raptors' starting lineup all have three-point capabilities and can easily help Bosh clear the paint.
Bosh sits on Stoudemire after receiving the ball.
Stoudemire doesn't suffer from strength, but Bosh is not an insider who relies on brute force. After two consecutive pushes, he suddenly shook his shoulders, and then made a turnaround jumper!
This shoulder shake is deceitful, and Stoudemire did not rush out immediately, leaving Bosh with enough shooting space.
Bosh shot with almost no interference.
"Bang!"
The opportunity came out, but the hand was obviously not hot just before the game, and the ball hit the neck of the basket and popped out!
The ball flew far, and Nash turned around near the free throw line to pick up the rebound.
Nash's fast-break push flew up, and halftime passed in the blink of an eye!
With a hit to the ground, Nash found Chen Yan who was plugging in from behind.
During the retreat, Anthony Parker deliberately kept a two-step distance from Chen Yan.
Anthony Parker's defensive strategy is very simple. He retreated to a safe area to prevent Chen Yan from tearing the Raptors' defense with speed during the transition.
But that's just easier said than done...
It's like everyone knows that defending against Iverson will block his right, and defending against Jordan will lock his fallback, but who can really do it?
Chen Yan made a quick change of direction, cutting the ball from his right hand to the left and right.
Then lower the center of gravity and accelerate in the second stage!
Chen Yan flashed past Anthony Parker like lightning!
Just eat it raw!
At this moment, Chen Yan is like a supercar without brakes!
The moment Anthony Parker was broken through, he didn't even react a bit. I've already put the ball two steps away, and you're still rushing?
Who TM plays like this?
Can you be reasonable?
After throwing off Anthony Parker, Chen Yan and Ma Pingchuan entered the Raptors' empty penalty area.
Take off with your left foot and fly into the air!
Straight to the sky nine days!
Chen Yan bombed the basket with one hand!
"Boom!!!"
The basket wailed in an instant! !
The fans in front of the TV stood up collectively!
The dunk that hit the basket in a quick counterattack, this is a typical Chen Yan-style goal!
Familiar formula, familiar taste, Chen Yan returned with full blood after being suspended for 4 games!
