best shooting guard

Chapter 36
"Hey, Qin Yan, yesterday's performance was very good, and I suddenly gained 10,000+ fans." Su Xiaoya's pleasant voice came from the phone.

Qin Yan listened carefully to what Su Xiaoya said, to be honest, he really missed her for more than a month.

Su Xiaoya didn't follow Qin Yan because the school started, but she still helped Qin Yan in the school to edit the website. After Qin Yan's first show, Qin Yan's fans skyrocketed, all of a sudden rose 10,000+.

"Oh, so many at once?" Qin Yan was also a little surprised, and he didn't expect his debut show to attract so many fans.

"But didn't I even go to the post-match press conference? There should be no way to cause more topics. How did I attract so many fans?" Qin Yan still had some doubts.

"Well, the main reason is that the gimmick before the game was too big. Many people are paying attention to the match between you and Davis. Anyone who has watched the game knows that you won, so your fans are high in an instant!"

"Oh, it's like this." Qin Yan thought for a while, "Okay, I'm going to prepare, and we'll talk after the game."

"Well, you pay attention to safety, play well, and I will watch the live broadcast."

"Okay, bye."

"Bye-Bye."

……

The home of the San Antonio Spurs, the AT&T Center, has a capacity of 18418.In the past few seasons, except for the playoffs and finals, the usual attendance rate here has not been too high, but this year, due to the arrival of Qin Yan, the attendance rate here has suddenly increased. The influence of the Chinese market is not covered.

In the past, apart from diehard fans, very few people would buy team season tickets or package tickets, but now, many people have booked all the VIP boxes for this season, and the current scalper tickets have been fired very high , The Spurs rarely found a ticket.

Tonight is the first home game of the new season. Tickets for the game have been sold out long ago, and there are spectators queuing up outside the arena early today. The atmosphere in the AT&T Center Arena is as lively as the finals.

A blue bus drove up to the arena, and the Thunder team members also arrived. Seeing the fiery atmosphere of the Spurs home court, the Thunder team was also a little surprised. Tickets are not easy to sell, but the atmosphere at home for the Spurs this year is really good, completely catching up with big ball markets like Los Angeles, New York, and Boston.

"Kevin, it seems that today's game will not be too easy." Russell Westbrook frowned. He had never felt so pressured when he came to the Spurs' home court before.

Durant didn't say a word. After all, he is someone who has seen big scenes. He will not be easily disturbed by some external factors. However, he also feels that the AT&T Center this season is a bit different. It seems that there must be a big battle tonight. up.

Qin Yan and other Spurs players are listening to Popovich's arrangement in the conference room.As expected, Durant was handed over to Leonard to defend, and it was a single defense. Somewhat unexpectedly, it was Qin Yan's defensive task. Qin Yan actually went to defend Westbrook when defending?
"Master, this is..." Qin Yan was a little puzzled, what was he doing, I was defending against Westbrook?And also a single defense?What about Parker?What is Parker doing?And this doesn't look like Popovich's coaching style at all?

"Well, because Tony's age is there after all, and Russell's impact is sometimes obvious to all, so ah, I plan to let Tony defend Safolosha. This guy is not a big threat and has no stable firepower. Although He is taller than Tony, but Tony has absolutely no problem defending him." Popovich spoke with eloquence.

"Any questions?" Popovich finally asked.

"No!" Everyone said in unison.

"Okay, let's warm up!"

"Yes!" Everyone agreed, and they left the conference room and walked towards the stadium together.

"Coach, would it be risky for Qin and Kahuai to defend against Kevin and Russell alone?" Duncan turned back at some point, looking at Popovich and asked worriedly.

"Tim, have confidence in the two of them. I believe they can do it." Popovich gave the two absolute confidence and patted Duncan on the back (too high to reach the shoulders) "Just like David and I trusted you back then."

"I believe in the abilities of the two of them, but isn't it too fast for them to directly face the strongest offensive firepower in the league?" Duncan was still a little worried about his little brother. Brotherhood is set back.

"Don't worry, they're not that fragile." Popovich was confident. "Just like you back then, didn't you have to face many first-class people as soon as you entered the league?"

Popovich walked to the window with his hands behind his back, from where the players could be seen walking toward the court.

"I trust them as much as I trusted you."

Duncan didn't speak, but went to join his teammates silently. He believed in Bobo's vision, and at the same time, he himself was really optimistic about these two young people.

I hope they can grow up quickly, so that when I, Manu and Tony really leave, these two children can continue to support this brilliant team.

This is inheritance.

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the AT&T Center. Tonight's game is the Oklahoma City Thunder vs. the San Antonio Spurs. Now, let us welcome two teams. The first is the Oklahoma City Thunder!"

The DJ on the scene is already introducing the two teams vigorously. The first one is the visiting team Thunder. The starting lineup of the Thunder today is:
Center Perkins

power forward ibaka
small forward durant
shooting guard safolosha
point guard westbrook

This lineup is no different from last year's finals starter, and it is also the Thunder's strongest starter. The only downside may be that the bench lineup lacks Harden, a stable scoring point. The newcomer Martin still doesn't know if he can integrate well. team.

The home fans booed the Thunder so deafeningly, especially when Westbrook and Durant played, the boos could lift the ceiling of the arena.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it seems that the Spurs don't like the two of us very much." Westbrook didn't know whether to be happy or what to do. After all, being booed shows that the other party attaches great importance to you. The harder the booing is, the more threatening you are bigger.

"Don't be careless, this year's Spurs are different from last year's, so be careful." Durant didn't say much, but moved his hands and feet very seriously.

Next, DJ began to introduce the Spurs' starting lineup:

Center Splitter
power forward duncan

small forward leonard

shooting guard Qin Yan
point guard parker
Popovich put Duncan at power forward again today, and then Splitter moved to center.

Of course, the most eye-catching feature of this lineup is the confrontation between the new combination of Leonard and Qin Yan, the Spurs, and the league's most powerful duo, the "Two Thunders". Who can win?

"Qin, I heard that you are very strong, let's have a good time today." Westbrook spoke to Qin Yan when he passed by Qin Yan.

Qin Yan ignored him. He knew that Westbrook was a very passionate person, and sometimes he was too passionate. Although this sentence sounded provocative, Qin Yan knew that it was just what Westbrook said without going through his brain.

On the other side, Leonard faced Durant, and Leonard's expressionless face made Durant a little uncomfortable.

"Are you playing against me today?" Durant asked rarely.

Leonard didn't speak (the facial paralysis attribute is automatically turned on), but just looked at Durant coolly, as if he wanted to kill him with his eyes.

"The eyes are good." Durant smiled, but "the eyes are not enough."

At this time, the two sides are ready to jump the ball, and Duncan and Ibaka are involved in the jump ball.

"Di—" A whistle blew, after all, it was a young man. Ibaka beat Duncan this time and won the first wave of ball possession for the Thunder. Durant used his long arms to grab the ball first.

"Kevin!" At the same time, Westbrook's feet were windy, and he ran forward quickly, while signaling Durant to make a long pass.

Durant did not live up to Westbrook's expectations. He raised his hand vigorously, and the ball turned into an orange lightning across the court and smoothly reached Westbrook, who had already rushed into the three-point line.

"It's too early to be happy." How could Qin Yan let Westbrook score so easily? He had already caught up, and taking advantage of his height, Qin Yan almost completely enveloped Westbrook under his shadow. If you dare to shoot, you can slap the ball cap off yourself!
However, the trump card of the Thunder, which can be called one of the strongest duo in the league, is definitely not so easy to defend.

Westbrook didn't slow down. He sped up again to get a little distance away from Qin Yan, and at the same time made a big change of direction in front of his body. The range of this movement was so huge that Westbrook's other limbs except the supporting legs They are all flying in the air!

"His feet will definitely hurt!" This was Qin Yan's first thought after seeing Westbrook's action.It was this thought that made Qin Yan's movements a little slower.

However, Westbrook acted as if nothing had happened. He felt Qin Yan's slightly slower movements. He quickly completed the cross change, and after only taking a step in the opposite direction, the whole person took off in the air.

At this time, it was too late for Qin Yan to chase after him, and he would only be accompanied by a foul if he went to block the shot, so Qin Yan watched Westbrook slam dunk with a tomahawk in front of him!
The audience was stunned for a moment, and then boos crazily. Of course, it was Westbrook who booed.It's just that people seem to regard the booing as an honor, with a proud look on their faces!

"Hey, this ball is just to say hello." Westbrook ran back very proudly, as if he had just completed a big event.

Tsk tsk, it's not easy for the Thunder's second young master to come to such a fierce fast break at the beginning of the game, he really lives up to his name, moving like a thunder!
