The rise of the NBA superstar

Chapter 75, Cleveland Cavaliers
After the interview, the Thunder changed into their training uniforms and entered the Quicken Loans Arena basketball court ahead of time to adapt to the venue.

Before warming up, Coach Brooks re-emphasized the tactics deployed yesterday. In general, Li Senlin and Westbrook are still single-handed, and whoever is not facing James can play. The tactics are very simple, and Brooks does not expect to win at all. , this is the devil's home field, so the arrangement was quickly completed.

After a while, the players warmed up, and Li Senlin was still practicing his fadeaway jumper.

On the Cavaliers side, only one James came to the court ahead of time, doing warm-up training.

Although the two of them confronted each other in front of the media, both of them chose to ignore each other when they saw each other.

All words are not as effective as actions, and the grievances and grievances of players are all resolved on the court.

Looking at James training alone, Li Senlin couldn't help but feel that he was a little pitiful. Look at the helpers around him now. It is really not easy for him to bring these people to such a result. No wonder he wants to join the group after two years , It is too tiring to carry the team alone.

Regardless of grievances and grievances, James is definitely the top five players in NBA history. He entered the NBA as the No. 2003 pick in [-], and he began to show extraordinary dominance in his rookie season.

Until Li Senlin crossed in 2018, the old man was still at his peak. He had been in the NBA for 15 years, and during these 15 years he had defeated many Eastern Conference All-Stars.

For example, Paul George was directly beaten to the point where he dared not stay in the East, DeRozan and Kevin Lowry were directly beaten into false stars by him, the two-gun combination became garbage brothers, and the Raptors became cute dragons.The worst is Kemba Walker of the Charlotte Hornets, 0 wins and 25 losses against James... .

Every Eastern All-Star encounters James and has to be tested for superstar quality, especially after 2010. The team with James almost wins the Eastern Conference every year.

Li Senlin still admires James in terms of dominance.

But admiration belongs to admiration. Now that King Zhan has conflicts with himself and is an opponent, then I must deal with it with all my strength. Don't I also regard Paul as an idol?Should it be pushed or pushed, what should be done or what should be done.

Playing basketball is his job, and now James is going to single-handedly defend, just to smash his job.

This is not a joke. When James is serious, it is definitely the defensive strength of the league, stronger than Tony Allen. The talent is there, so Li Senlin can't help but take it seriously.

Now no one in the league dares to say that his talent is better than James. Even Durant, the boss of the Thunder, will not be able to compare with James until two or three years later.

What's more, he is a C+ rookie. If he hadn't engaged in Paul and just won Wade again, James might not have noticed his existence at all.What about rookies averaging 20+ per game?He's an MVP-level figure.

So this battle, Li Senlin is bound to be very difficult.

With Li Senlin's popularity, CCTV 5 also began to pay attention to Li Senlin's game. In addition, today's Thunder's opponent is the Cavaliers, and then it is Saturday, so CCTV 5 also chose to broadcast live without hesitation.

So, without Li Senlin's knowledge, CCTV 5 directly moved Li Senlin to the national audience.

Old fans who usually pay attention to the NBA know Li Senlin. Young people who like to surf the Internet have seen these sports news more or less. They also know that there is such a Chinese rookie playing in the NBA, and he seems to be playing well.

But many middle-aged and elderly people and elementary and middle school students who don't surf the Internet and occasionally pay attention to basketball are still unfamiliar with Li Senlin.

The 5 sets of CCTV's live broadcast of the game between the Thunder and the Cavaliers will undoubtedly greatly improve Li Senlin's popularity in China.

Many elementary and middle school students who do not have mobile phones and love basketball can only watch the NBA on TV. It happens that on Saturday, many people stay in front of the TV, turn on CCTV 5, watch the NBA, and enjoy the basketball game .

They didn't even know that Li Senlin, a Chinese, was also in the NBA. Many elementary and middle school students sitting in front of the TV learned about Li Senlin, the Chinese rookie who had recently become famous in the NBA, and his Crazy game performance.

"Director Zhang, this game seems to be a bit different. Why is the American media paying so much attention to it?"

Veteran CCTV 5 commentator Sun Zhengping asked guest Zhang Weiping.

"Haha, this is because the two sides fought fiercely before the game."

Zhang Weiping replied calmly.

"Oh, what is it? Tell our audience."

Director Sun pretended not to know what to say.

"It's very complicated to say, mainly because of the verbal battle between Li Senlin and James."

Sun Zhengping was used to watching Yao Ming's games before.

Yao Ming is a good boy who has inherited the good morals of the Chinese people, such as humility, integrity and tenacity.

It's not like this Li Senlin, who makes trouble everywhere.

When Sun Zhengping heard about Li Senlin, he felt quite novel, and thought he had a lot of personality.

Because there is still a long time before the start of the game, Director Zhang started talking about Li Senlin touching Paul's head...

After audiences across the country listened to director Zhang's storytelling language, many viewers who didn't know the ins and outs of this news were instantly aroused. This Li Senlin seemed to be different from Yao Ming, with a very flamboyant personality.

Yao Ming is an honest man who plays well, but this guy has only been in the NBA for a long time, and he offended Paul, defeated Wade, and was targeted by James.

There's been a lot of big news, and the beauties seem to have nothing to do with him, and they are almost deflated on him. These things seem really cool.

This also allowed the audience to see different styles of basketball stars. Some people praised Li Senlin for being unique, and many people also criticized Li Senlin for not having the professional ethics of playing with humility, not playing well, and focusing on fighting and off-court news. This effect is very bad.

Li Senlin didn't know anything about all this. As the kick-off time of the game approached, the audience began to enter the stadium one after another.

It has to be said that although the Cleveland market is small, benefiting from the Cavaliers' 22 wins and 4 losses at home and an undefeated record at home, the seats at the Quicken Loans Center are full, which is much more lively than the Thunder's home court at Ford Center.

Li Senlin was still warming up. Even though the game hadn't started yet, as soon as Li Senlin took the ball and made a shot, the audience began to boo.

Hearing the boos of the audience, Li Senlin was not afraid at all, paralyzed, afraid of hair, and felt uncomfortable. Li Senlin was also ready to provoke the audience, anyway, they couldn't come on stage to fight.

Seeing this, Brooks was afraid that Li Senlin would do something more impulsive and that the team would be affected, so he immediately arranged for the Thunder team to return to the locker room.

Seeing that Brooks was so determined, Li Senlin had no choice but to give up his plan to provoke the audience, and followed the coach back honestly.

Brooks looked at Li Senlin and couldn't help but feel a headache. This rookie is good at everything, but he likes to make trouble too much.

He also knows about the farce before the game, but he is not good at interfering in this matter. He can only let the public relations contact the media and do the work of the media. Don't focus on Li Senlin. It is definitely not a good thing for a rookie to get too much attention, but Now it seems that the effect is not great, and he can't help it.

After a while, as the entrance ceremony ended.

No. 23 still habitually walked to the technical stage, pretending to sprinkle chalk.

The atmosphere of the audience was instantly ignited.

Li Senlin looked at the series of pretentious actions on the 23rd, and immediately used his brains, should he also have a pre-match ceremony at home? Look, James' actions are so compelling.

Otherwise, consider Wade's actions?Wade's drive to the rim is also good....

As for Westbrook, Westbrook's entrance dance is too ugly to suit him.

How can I pretend to be forceful without making people feel less pretentious?Li Senlin thought about it.

"CCTV, CCTV, here is the NBA regular season live broadcast for you. The Ohlahoma City Thunder will challenge the Cleveland Cavaliers at home."
