Chapter 84 Home Debut

The next day, Ji Feng returned to the arena for training as usual. Although the signing of the shoes surprised many people, they didn’t think there was anything. This is the NBA. They all see Ji Feng’s potential, so they think It's a matter of sooner or later.

Conley, Lowry and Guy all expressed their envy to Ji Feng. Although they also have endorsement contracts, they are the most ordinary ones.

Guy's relationship with Ji Feng has eased a lot now, but competition still exists. This is a hidden danger that will break out sooner or later, but it's not yet. At least the atmosphere of the Grizzlies is not bad now. Only a few people, including Ji Feng, know what kind of turbulence is hidden in this seemingly calm atmosphere.

But what Ji Feng can do is to play well game by game.

On October 16, 2007, the Grizzlies faced the challenge of the Timberwolves at home. This was also the Grizzlies' first home game this season, and it was also the first time that Ji Feng faced the test of an NBA team. Can Ji Feng show again? Your own level is also the focus of many people's attention.

Although Ji Feng performed well in the last game, there are still people who say that Ji Feng is only able to play non-NBA teams, and when he encounters a strong team, he will reveal the truth.

And more importantly, after a long period of cultivation, Gasol chose to return in this game, and the Grizzlies finally ushered in his brightest lineup.

Since it was the first game, the Memphis fans erupted with great enthusiasm, and fans poured into the arena an hour before the game kicked off.

Ji Feng also rushed to the locker room of the arena early. This was the first time that Ji Feng experienced the atmosphere of the NBA home court. He wanted to see what it was like to step on the court amid the shouts of thousands of people.

After a short warm-up, Coach Mark said to the entire staff: "Listen guys, this is the first game at home. We need to play what we have in training. The opponents are very weak. Let's focus on the No. 1 tactic and win them!"

"Of course, Mr. Mark." Everyone responded. Everyone had confidence on their faces, and they really didn't think they had anything to worry about when facing the Timberwolves.

As for why, just look at their starting roster, point guard Marco Jaric, point guard Rashad McCants, small forward Ricky Davis, power forward Craig Smith, center Theo - Ratliff,

How, are you very confused, because you don't know any of them.

The Timberwolves completed a big deal that shocked the league when Ji Feng was playing in the National League. They sent Garnett, the wolf king, in exchange for a bunch of miscellaneous characters.

Such a transaction directly made the Celtics the Big Three and became the biggest favorite to win the championship, while the Timberwolves became the most powerful contender for the league's reverse championship, and it is estimated that there is no opponent.

Rivers and lakes are called sending the warm team.

"Today's starting lineup for the Grizzlies is center Milicic, power forward Gasol, small forward Guy, shooting guard Navarro, and point guard Stoudemire." The on-site commentary read out the Grizzlies' starting list. name.

Ji Feng, Conley and Lori were all sitting on the bench. Ji Feng knew that this was taking advantage of Gasol's presence to test the strongest lineup in Mark's mind.

The game attracted the attention of many media around the world, and CCTV also started the live broadcast early. Taking advantage of the time before the game, it made some comments on the prospects of this game.

"Ji Feng should have a good performance." This is the consensus of Yu Jia and Yang Yi.

"Guys, play!" The staff member opened the door and said.

The Timberwolves are done playing, now it's their turn!

"Let's Go Grizzlies!" shouted the players in a circle.

At this moment, the long sound of DJ "Let's Go Grizzlies" came from the venue, and then the flag was waved, the voice was full of people, and under the spotlight, the Grizzlies players appeared one by one!

Ji Feng as a rookie is the first.

"Now it's a talented boy from Asia! Ji! Feng!"

"This is where I'm coming! This is the NBA!" With DJ's unfamiliar Chinese pronunciation, Ji Feng ran out, a surge of blood welling up in his heart, which is the meaning of his struggle.

The fans in the stadium gave Ji Feng a big shout out of respect, and Ji Feng heard the Chinese shouts mixed in, and then Ji Feng waved in the direction of the Chinese.

Players appeared one by one, and their voices became higher and higher, and finally reached the highest level after Gasol played. They still love the biggest star of their team. Although they have not won a playoff, at least Hopefully not.

At the end of the appearance ceremony, Ji Feng returned to the bench, next to Conley, who was connected to him with the same illness, but at least they were not next to the water dispenser. That became Jacobson's place.

"The game starts!" Although there was no Ji Feng, Yu Jia and Yang Yi still explained seriously. This was also the first Ji Feng's game that Yang Yi explained after Ji Feng arrived in the NBA, so Yang was looking forward to Ji Feng very much.

Milicic jumped to the basketball, facing the opposite Theo Ratliff, he was still very emboldened.

Of course, the Grizzlies chose to give Gasol a single on the inside for the first ball. Stoudemire held the ball, Gay quickly settled down, and helped Gasol in the pick-and-roll, and then the ball was given to Navarro on the weak side, while Gaso Else pouted his butt in the interior to get a better position!

Immediately afterwards, the four pulled apart, looking for a neutral position. Gasol singled on the flanks, held the ball with his back, and made a small hook after two steps. This is also Gasol's specialty, but this first ball bounced out of the box.

The Timberwolves attacked with the ball. They played even more simply. There was no tacit understanding between the players. !

In the second ball, the Grizzlies changed their tactics. Gasol mentioned that he made a one-block screen for Gay near the free throw line. Gay used Gasol's pick-and-roll and went down. Grizzlies open the scoring!

As an insider, Gasol's ability to respond is definitely the best, and this ball is the proof.

After that, the Grizzlies handed it over to Gay directly, and let Gay hold the ball and play singles beyond the three-point line. Gay can still deal with Ricky Davis, although Davis may be the best player on the opposite side. But Gay still passed him and completed the mid-range shot.

The Grizzlies basically played the same tactics in three rounds. These routines generally perform well in the regular season. They have a high winning rate against weak teams, but once they face strong teams, they will be easily locked up. This is also hard for the Grizzlies to find. The reason for a playoff win.

The two sides played more than half of the first quarter, and the Timberwolves had already shown their decline. Although Gasol felt cold and touching, he missed all 4 shots and scored two points from free throws, but Gay felt very good and shot from the inside out. The next 8 points helped the team lead the opponent 22-15 by 7 points, and with 4 minutes left before the end of the first quarter, Ji Feng finally played!
