After the Tigers were established, the new season is about to begin. Eight players have been confirmed. Currently, they are still missing at least 4 players.
When Liu Xiaowei became the manager, of course he had to leave these matters to him. Their target was still the veterans, because with the support of the miracle doctor, the veterans were back to their peak, had low salary requirements, and were well-known.
They put their number one target on Arenas and Francis, who are currently weak but were once talented. Since the Tigers already have two point guards in Marbury and Iverson, they also have two shooting guards.
In fact, what the three of them need more is frontcourt players, but considering that Arenas and Francis are also quite outstanding in individual singles ability, they still invited two players to join. Both players can be said to be aging before they grow old. Listen
They were of course very happy to say that they still had a chance to play and even return to the top.
In addition, at the end of this season, Grant Hill was considering retiring. He joined the Los Angeles Clippers in his last season. Unfortunately, he failed to win the championship. Grant Hill was already about to retire. I heard that he still
If he has the chance to play for another year, he will naturally join the Tigers and fight for another year.
Arenas, Francis, and Grant Hill recovered quickly after receiving special training, and basically recovered to 80% at the beginning of the season. In addition, they also won a rookie power forward, so their 12-man roster has been
Made it together
The establishment of the San Francisco Tigers caused quite a stir. The team of Chinese owner Yao Zhenbo, Chinese manager Liu Xiaowei, plus Chinese players Yao Ming and Yang Zhenxing had a huge influence in China.
The 2013-14 season finally begins
In the opening game of the Bengals, they faced the Denver Nuggets at home at the VA Garden Arena in San Francisco. After Iguodala joined the Nuggets last season, their strength has increased a lot. In the first game, they will strive to win a group of players who have
Bones Tigers
The game started with cheers and shouts from the audience
The Nuggets' starting lineup consists of point guard Ty Lawson, shooting guard Iguodala (Iguodala is a combo guard, and since the Nuggets already have Gallinari, Iguodala has been relegated to the backcourt), Jr.
Forward Danilo Gallinari, power forward Faeide, center McGee
The Tigers' starting lineup is point guard Allen Iverson, shooting guard Yang Zhenxing, small forward Tracy McGrady, power forward Yi Jianlian, and center Yao Ming.
The game begins
Yao Ming and spring man McGee jumped the ball. Even if Yao Ming returned to his peak, his bounce was still the same, so he failed to get the first offensive ball.
Because this is the Tigers' first game and they only have one chance to compete in the season, they play very hard and take every game extremely seriously.
Lawson faced Iverson's defense. Iverson stayed close. Lawson broke through and Iverson defended. Lawson was very strong and rushed in with the ball in hand. Lawson faced Iverson's small throw.
Shoot, bang! Yi Jianlian jumped up high and blocked the ball with a big shot. The first wave of offense was disintegrated by the Tigers. The Tigers' defense rotated quickly. This ball reflects their skillful defensive cooperation.
Yang Zhenxing received the ball and gave it to Iverson calmly.
Iverson pulled away and wanted to face Lawson in singles. Lawson dismissed it. Obviously he thought that the 38-year-old Allen Iverson would be very slow. In addition, Iverson had not been able to play for a long time.
Now that he is playing in the professional league, Lawson thought it would be easy to guard against Iverson.
Iverson was outside the three-point line, at a 60-degree position, and sneered, "Humph, don't look at me getting old, look at how I will deal with you."
Iverson pretended to break through by dribbling with his left hand, then moved forward, and then immediately pulled it back. Lawson was fooled and stepped forward to steal the ball. How could Iverson's ball be so easy to steal? Iverson dribbled the ball behind his back.
Dribbled the ball to the right
Lawson obviously hadn't recovered yet. Iverson broke through. Faered was always ready to block Iverson. Iverson ignored it, went in, and slowly raised the ball.
As expected, Reid took off. Iverson was still in the air. He originally held the ball with both hands, but this time he changed the ball to his right hand. He leaned on Faered to force the ball into the basket with a pick.
The referee's whistle signaled that there was still physical contact with Faeryd and he committed a foul.
Iverson stepped to the free throw line and made the free throw
In the first wave of offense, the Tigers scored their first offense of the season. This was also the first goal Iverson scored in more than two years. This undoubtedly brought great joy to Iverson himself, the team and the fans.
Confidence
The audience burst into applause immediately. Even coach Phil Jackson, who was not a serious man, applauded violently with excitement.
Iverson half covered his ears with his hands and listened to the cheers from the audience. It has been two years since Iverson left here. At this moment, he once again heard the cheers given to him by the fans. At this moment, Iverson felt excited.
Surging, he could finally return to his peak. Iverson controlled his excitement and quickly ran to the backcourt.
Looking back, the Nuggets were not to be outdone, and Gallinari scored 3-2 in the mid-range shot.
In Yang Zhenxing's one-on-one, he faced Andre Iguodala, who was taller and stronger than him. How to fight was a question. Iguodala's defensive ability has long been obvious to all. He is the best in the NBA. Besides, he
Iguodala has always played the small forward position, and Iguodala is very comprehensive. For the shorter Yang Zhenxing, I'm afraid Iguodala will have to weigh it in isolation.
Yang Zhenxing handed the ball to Iverson. It wasn't that he didn't dare to play, but that he needed another simple and effective method. After Iverson got the ball, he was no longer the same as usual. He got the ball first.
Paying attention to the position of his teammates, Yang Zhenxing slipped around to catch the ball, made a three-pointer, and took the shot!
Brush! The ball hit the net, and Iguodala had no choice. After all, his speed couldn't keep up with Yang Zhenxing. Yang Zhenxing relied on this to make a living, and of course he wouldn't be easily caught up.
Then, Yang Zhenxing intercepted Iguodala's pass and immediately launched a fast break and passed it to Yi Jianlian. Yi Jianlian dunked 8:2 with both hands. As soon as the game started, the newly formed Tigers had already taken control of the situation.
The Golden Team started this time a little passively.
Then Yao Ming defended McGee again. McGee had almost never played against Yao Ming. He didn't know how powerful Yao Ming was. A layup like this was directly seeking death.
Yao Ming got the rebound and gave it to Yang Zhenxing, Yang Zhenxing gave it to McGrady, McGrady made a mid-range shot, and the pull-up reappeared
Brush! Another hit
10:2, the Tigers' first five attacks of the new season all hit the Nuggets, and the Nuggets fell into greater passivity.
McGee received Lawson's layup. McGee finally scored a goal. McGee clapped his hands excitedly and said to himself, "Isn't this what Yao Ming is like? As long as I can play fast, I can take care of Yao Ming."
Haha, just thinking about it made Mikey happy.
Yao Ming didn't look at him carefully at all. Didn't he just score a goal? He's so blind. You'll be in trouble later.
Sure enough, Yao Ming took a post-up shot. Yao Ming smiled slightly, turned around, raised his hand high and hit it high. With a flick of his wrist, he hit the net! McGee looked up at the basket and cursed in his heart: "Damn, isn't he a little tall?
"
Yao Ming smiled: "Humph, when I entered the NBA, you were still in middle school, a pink and tender newcomer."
The game continues at 12:4, the Nuggets have the ball
Lawson's breakthrough was blocked, Faeryed picked up the ball, and before Yi Jianlian could react, he dunked with a bang.
Yao Ming looked at this young man and couldn't help but sigh: "Young people are really full of energy."
Yi Jianlian's mid-range shot was gone, and Lawson broke through Iverson again. This time, he escaped Yi Jianlian's defense with his left hand lever and carried the ball forward.
This reminds Yao Ming of his former teammate Kyle Lowry, a little steel cannon.
In the next five minutes, Yao Ming scored two goals. Yao Ming likes to single out players like McGee who like to jump. He can easily shake him away and then score him easily. Facing Yao Ming, McGee
All I can do is scream wildly.
McGrady made a pull-up jumper, which suddenly attracted cheers from the fans. People haven't seen McGrady's ecstasy pull-up jumper for a long time. This time they finally saw it once, and it was still so sharp.
As Yang Zhenxing caused Lawson's foul, the game entered the first official timeout. During this period, all players of the Tigers scored. The current score is 20:12. The Tigers led by 8 points and firmly controlled the situation.
After the timeout, the game resumed. O'Neal replaced Yao Ming, Marbury replaced Iverson, and Carter replaced Tracy McGrady.
Yang Zhenxing made two free throws
The defender in front of Lawson became Marbury. Lawson murmured in his heart, "I'm going, I'm really feasting my eyes this time. The former top defenders in front of him include Iverson and Marbury. He will definitely come back next."
Facing Arenas and Francis
Lawson succeeded in a layup. Now Lawson is improving very quickly. Now his courage is getting bigger and bigger. No matter who is standing in front of him, he dares to attack inside with a bag of explosives. This even makes many superstars
The Lakers are not adapting
It's Yang Zhenxing's turn to attack. Just now, he only showed off his jump shots and free throws. This time, he has to practice. After a long period of retreat, he must make progress no matter what. He can't remain the same as before.
Yang Zhenxing faced the powerful Iguodala, and the two looked at each other coldly.
Iguodala whispered: "Young man, I heard that you are very successful in practicing in seclusion. Come and let me see it!"
"Hmph, I'll show you soon." Yang Zhenxing sneered.
Yang Zhenxing dribbled from behind and switched from his left hand to his right hand. He pushed forward and his butt blocked Iguodala. Iguodala had difficulty turning. Yang Zhenxing stepped back and Iguodala stepped forward. Yang Zhenxing quickly turned around and tightened his grip.
