The Call of Sports Arena - Chapter 353

“Charles, you can’t talk like this.?” Although knowing that Barkley was joking, but seeing Kobe’s face became ugly, Kenny Smith on the side hurried out to round the field.

“Oh, I apologize, but I am really curious, and what is this…”

“Tang Hao.”

“Yes, this guy was injured without playing a game. Wouldn’t it be because you played before he was injured?”

“Charles, your news is blocked. Tang Hao scored 4o in the final before the Asian Games, helping the Chinese team win the championship.” Smith reminded.

“Really? Really?!” Barkley looked surprised.

Smith nodded.

“That’s really an amazing thing, but Kenny, wait, what did you just say about the Asian Games? Asian games?”

Smith nodded again.

“Oh, my God! Asian game! Kenny, you are such a funny guy. I believe you can get 4o points when you get there.” Buckley said ridiculously.

Smith laughed amusedly.

Kobe watched the two guys sing one-on-one, knowing that it was useless, he smiled, and then suddenly said: “Charles, I know you guys like to gamble the most, or why don’t we make a bet kind?”

“Bet, Kobe, won’t you really bet this kid on me?” Buckley looked at Kobe in surprise.

“Is there anything wrong?” Bryant seemed confident.

“Okay, I bet you, I’m sure this guy can’t get 1o points in the game.” Buckley is also confident.

“1o points? Charles, are you serious?” Bryant said, sitting upright.

“1o points, Charles is the person who says what he needs to do. 1o points is 1o points. There is no room for discussion.”

“So, what are we betting on?” Bryant looked at Buckley with great interest.

“Yeah, what to gamble, Kenny, do you have any suggestions?” Buckley said, looking at Smith.

Kobe also looked at Smith.

Smith was silent for a while, then suddenly slapped his head and said, “Charles, do you remember the cover of the last Sports Illustrated?”

“Oh~” Buckley recalled for a while, and immediately showed a squinted smile, followed by, “Of course I remember, that is a **** girl, wearing a three-point dress, but the chest is a bit small, probably as big as my chest. .”

Barkley’s words immediately caused Smith and Kobe to laugh.

“So, if any of you lose, just wear that kind of clothes, how about performing a dunk in the studio?” Smith said.

“Oh! Oh! Oh! Kenny, you are a bit ruthless.” As soon as Smith finished, Buckley could not help laughing.

Kobe was also a bit dumb at this time. Smith’s detrimental move, Kobe’s original Buckley’s **** **** was even ruthless.

“However, the effect of the show is perfect, I agree!” Buckley said, slamming the table.

“So, Kobe, how are you?” Buckley said, looking at Kobe.

“I’m fine.” Bryant also showed no signs of weakness.

“Okay, let’s look forward to Tang’s performance.” Buckley said confidently.

Kobe and Barkley’s bets immediately caused an uproar after the program was broadcast, and a large number of fans focused on Tang Hao.

The fans were divided into two groups at this time.

Supporting Kobe’s wave, there are Kobe and Lakers fans, but more of them are Tang Hao’s fans. They have witnessed that Tang Hao has created too many miracles, plus many of them have seen Tang Hao’s performance in the Asian Games. Their emotions are expectant in their indignation. Buckley’s big mouth will be beaten severely this time.

The wave that supported Barkley was more of American fans. They didn’t have much affection for Tang Hao, and Barkley’s rookie variation theory is also some trend of nBa in recent years. They firmly believe that even if these rookies are possible To become a superstar player, that person is absolutely impossible to be Tang Hao.

Tang Hao’s injury recovery is much better than expected, his physical fitness is better than ordinary people, before the last two games of the preseason, he has recovered almost.

However, for protection, Scott did not arrange for Tang Hao to play.

Tang Hao’s show was therefore postponed to the opener.

The Lakers opener opponent is the Rockets, this is a home game.

On this day, the attendance rate in the Los Angeles Arena reached more than 90%. There are reasons for Kobe and Barkley to bet, and it is because Kobe finally ushered in his regular season show after a truce for a season.

More than half an hour before the game begins, the players from both sides have arrived at the arena and started the final adaptive training before the game.

The reporters also appeared on the sidelines at this time, waiting for the opportunity to conduct a final interview with the players before the game.

The Rockets center Howard is another focus of the game. The Lakers paid a huge price in the 2o12~2o13 season. After trading from the Magic to the then first center of the league, the center contracted in the second season. After expiration, he chose to join the Houston Rockets.

Howard appeared on the sidelines and was caught by a beautiful reporter.

“Hey, Dwight, long time no see.”

“Hey.” Howard said with a smile.

“This is your first return to Los Angeles in the new season, do you have any thoughts?”

“Yes, I played in this city two years ago. Although it was not the first time I came back here, every time I came back, it reminded me of a lot of things.”

“Have you ever greeted Kobe?”

“Yes, I will.” Howard smiled when he said this. He didn’t get along well with Kobe. Kobe’s persistence and sternness in the game made him feel crazy.

“Okay, let’s talk about some pleasant things, have you heard about the rookie betting?” The reporter asked Howard’s face and changed the subject.

“Yes, I know, it was a Buckley-style bet, they said to wear a three-point dunk, man, think about the scene of spicy eyes.” When it comes to betting time, Howard couldn’t help laughing.

“Then who do you think will win this bet?”

“Do you have to answer?” Howard said with a smile.

“No, but I want to know your answer.” The beauty smiled charmingly.

“Well, I think we will see Kobe’s performance this time.”

“Really? Do you think Kobe will lose? Why?” The beautiful reporter asked in surprise.

“Kobe is a paranoid guy, and the Lakers coaching staff is the same. I don’t think they will deliberately create tactics for the little guy because of a bet.” Howard looked thoroughly.

“Yes, what you said is not unreasonable. The last question, do you think you can win?”

“Of course, we are full of confidence now, our goal this season is the championship.” Howard is very confident.

After the reporter interviewed Howard, the referee and assistant referee had arrived at the sidelines, and the opener was about to begin.

The lights on the scene suddenly went out.

Tang Hao was standing between Wesley Johnson and Nick Young at this time.

This is his first time to participate in the opening ceremony of the team.

There are two kinds of nBa opening ceremonies, one is to introduce only the home team members, the other is to introduce both teams, and the Lakers belong to the latter.

After a host’s opening remarks, the Rockets players were the first to be introduced.

The reaction of the fans on the scene was more general. It was not until the introduction to Howard that the emotions of the fans at the scene reached a turning point.

When Howard’s name was pronounced, an overwhelming boo came from the scene.

It can be seen that despite the two years that have passed, the fans’ complaints about Howard have not decreased at all.

The Rockets last played “Hard Beard” James Harden, his appearance ushered in a burst of cheers from fans on the scene.

As an All-Star player and a strong contender for mVp, he is still very popular in nBa.

After the Rockets players were introduced, the lights on the spot dimmed again.

At the same time, around the large circular LED screen at the top of the arena, two large circular curtains landed slowly as the streamer flashed.

The scene also followed a **** background music.

After the curtain came down, it projected the highlights of the Lakers.

Exciting background music, exciting and exciting highlights, and the opening ceremony of the Lakers made people feel that adrenaline went straight up.

Tang Hao also looked up at the curtain at this time. Kobe Bryant was the most in the highlights, which was the Lakers’ deliberately renewed highlights in the new season.

After the highlights were released, the lights on the scene lighted up. After reading a short opening remarks, the host began the introduction of players.

One by one, the Lakers were introduced. When Johnson was introduced, Tang Hao turned and prepared.

“He used to be a professional boxer, but now, he is our No. 7 rookie, he is from China, he is Tang~hao~”

With a burst of exclusive music, Tang Hao’s name was pronounced.

A warm cheer came from the scene.

The expectations of Kobe and the Lakers management for Tang Hao are also the expectations of the Lakers fans. They look forward to Tang Hao becoming the player who will lead the Lakers back to the top.

Tang Hao waved with the fans and then gave his teammates a high five.

After Tang Hao, the other players of the Lakers were introduced one by one. When the player introduction came to the end, the host’s volume suddenly increased.

“He is the 16th All-Star, the 4th nBa All-Star Most Valuable Player, the two-time nBa Finals Most Valuable Player Award, he brought 5 championship trophies to the city, he played for the team For 18 years, he was an irreplaceable symbol of the city. He is our hero. He is Kobe Bryant~”

With the high-pitched shouts of the host, a burst of cheers burst into the scene.

“Kobe! Kobe!”

The scene shouted Kobe’s name in unison, and it was tremendous.

After the introduction of the players was completed, the head coaches of the two sides pulled the players to start tactical deployment.

Tang Hao did not appear in the lineup. The Lakers’ first five tigers are Jeremy Lin, Kobe, Wesley Johnson, Rennes Kelly and Jordan Hill.

On the Rockets side, Patrick Beverly and Harden have played in the field, Trevor Ariza and Donatas Motiejunas are on the front line, and Howard Howard is the center.

From the perspective of book strength alone, the Rockets obviously have to outperform the Lakers.

The referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game, and the match between the two sides began.

“Bang! Bang!”

At the beginning of the game, Tang Hao could clearly hear the collision of muscles on the field. This is different from the Asian Games and the preseason. The physical strength of the players on the field is obviously higher by a level. .

The higher the intensity of physical confrontation, the harder it is to complete technical moves, which is why some players can score crazy in low-level games, but the reason why it is difficult to reach the international stage of nBa.

“Kenny, look, is our little guy a little scared?” The explanation for this game is Charles Barkley and his old partner Kenny Smith, when he saw Tang Hao’s expression, Barkley Can’t help but laugh.

“Maybe, but I think you must have a lot of emotions to say.” Smith said.

“Yes, I met a lot of newcomers at the beginning, they are the core in the university, but when it comes to the league, it is frightening to see this level of physical confrontation directly.”

“If Tang is one of them, then you have won this gambling.” Smith said with a smile.

“Kenny, it’s still early. Kobe and I bet on a season. I never thought that this little guy would score 1o in the first game. You know it was in the regular season.” Smith smiled and looked towards the field. on.

Just when the two were chatting, the momentum of the game has completely turned to the Rockets side~www.mtlnovel.com~ Kobe has a good opening feeling, but the overall strength of the Lakers is much better than the Rockets. By 3 minutes, the team was 12 points behind 16-28.

Scott shook his head helplessly on the sidelines.

At this time, the two sides have started to substitute players for 66 consecutive times. The Rockets’ Harden and Howard cores have successively ended. On the Lakers’ side, Kobe has also rested for a while.

His face was solemn, and he could not see that the situation behind him made him happy.

“Tang.” Two minutes before the end of the first quarter, Scott finally turned back and called Tang Hao.

Tang Hao took off his coat and stood up from the seat.

When he saw Tang Hao get up, Bryant glanced at him, and then said, “Have a good performance.”

Tang Hao nodded and walked towards the technical table.

The game does not enter the dead ball time, players can only play in the designated area in front of the technical table.

As he walked toward the technical desk, he naturally saw Buckley and Smith sitting behind to explain.

Buckley also noticed Tang Hao, and he looked up.

The two are facing each other.

Tang Hao grinned, the expression looked very kind.

Buckley froze for a moment, he didn’t understand what Tang Hao meant by this smile.

Tang Hao walked to the technical desk with a smile, and then sat back against the technical desk.

“Jason shakes beautifully, oh god, Carlos’ defense is really bad, he fouled, the Rockets have made free throws, Jason is going to the free throw line.”

Behind him came the voice of Barkley’s commentary.

“beep!”

Just then, there was a short whistle behind him.

Tang Hao stood up from the waiting area and it was time for him to play. 8
