After giving Ivanka Trump and Kim Kardashian a close-up each, the camera immediately turned back to the field.
Players from both sides have already shaken hands in the center circle. The game is about to start.
These people don’t dare to feature Ivanka and Kardashian anymore.
They are different from Smith. With the big news of Ivanka, Smith doesn't need to pay attention to the game.
But for these media who broadcast the game live, the game seems to be more important.
If I kept showing close-ups of two beauties, I would probably be scolded by many fans.
Players from both teams walked to the center circle and shook hands.
This is the first time the two teams have played against each other this season. Speaking of which, the Mavericks have not changed much compared to last year, but the Bulls have already changed beyond recognition.
The core has changed, the tactics have changed, and even the starting lineup has been changed. Except for Chandler, this year's Bulls' starters are all brand-new faces.[
For the Mavericks players, it’s a brand new face!
The two teams played against each other for the first time this season, and naturally there was no grudge. The handshakes before the game were quite harmonious.
Finley didn't make any bold statement about guarding Chen Jie. Old Nelson had explained it before the game. After studying Chen Jie's many games, if you still don't know that the more stimulated Chen Jie is, the more he will explode.
In terms of characteristics, old Nelson would not have been able to reach his current status.
After greetings, the referee took the basketball and walked to the center circle, and the game was about to begin.
Kim Kardashian covered her mouth in excitement, but Ivanka Trump didn't seem to care much and still only looked at Chen Jie.
She is different from Kim Kardashian. Kim Kardashian comes to see people and also to watch football.
But Ivanka Trump is just here to see people.
Jump ball, Chandler and "the first center in the West" Dampier.
Dampier took advantage of his height advantage, touched the ball with his fingertips, and passed the ball to Nowitzki next to him.
Nowitzki handed the ball to Terry. The Mavericks started their first offense.
Speaking of Terry, many Chinese fans should be familiar with it. His full name is Jason Terry. In fact, he is not very famous in China now, and he is not the same as the Jets in the future.
He really became famous in this year's playoffs. Facing the Rockets, he used several three-pointers to kill the Rockets' hopes of advancing.
For many teams, the Mavericks' most threatening player is naturally Nowitzki.
But it's a coincidence that for the Rockets, every time they face the Mavericks, they have never been defeated by Nowitzki.
Every time the Rockets lose to the Mavericks, it's usually at the hands of Terry.[
Because of Yao Ming's arrival, the Rockets have a very broad fan base in China, and because Terry goes crazy when facing the Rockets, he has almost become the public enemy of many Chinese fans and the center of the Utah Jazz.
Carlos Boozer is tied as the two most unpopular NBA stars in China, even more than Nowitzki and Kirilenko.
In his previous life, Chen Jie liked Tracy McGrady so much and was naturally a star of the Rockets. Therefore, although Chen Jie had no grudge against Terry, he still had a kind of disgust from the bottom of his heart.
In fact, objectively speaking, Jason Terry is still a very practical player.
His three-pointers have often accomplished miraculous feats at critical moments.
Although his breakthrough is not as sharp as players like Wade, he can at least pose a threat to the opponent.
Although at the point guard position, Terry's passing ability is average and he is more like a shooting guard, he is still a well-known figure in the league, and his strength cannot be ignored.
When facing Chris Duhon, Jason Terry at least has a slight advantage.
However, for the first ball, Jason Terry did not choose to break through or shoot. Instead, after passing the half court, he passed it to Dampier in the inside position.
Dampier, known as the best center in the Western Conference, still has a certain status despite the generally low strength of centers in the league.
His net worth is also very high.
Cuban has a lot of money. When he saw the Lakers with O'Neal dominating the Western Conference, he decided to buy Dampier.
But in fact, Dampier did not bring much improvement in strength to the Mavericks.
He is just a little better than other centers, but there is still a big gap between him and truly powerful centers, such as Yao Ming O'Neal.
His post-ups are very monotonous.
However, this time, facing Chandler, perhaps due to his great height advantage, Dampier finally squeezed a few times and got a chance to take a leisurely shot. He hit a hook two-pointer and took the lead in breaking the deadlock in the game.
.
The Mavericks' first attack was successful!
Many fans at the scene gave Dampier applause.
Kim Kardashian also clapped her hands symbolically, but Ivanka didn't react at all.
She was even surprised. Didn't Kim Kardashian say that Chen Jie played well? Why didn't he catch the ball?
Just when Ivanka was still about to ask Kim Kardashian this question, Chris Duhon dribbled the ball past half-court and passed the ball to Chen Jie, who started dribbling to look for a breakthrough opportunity.
Ivanka didn't ask anymore.
Fortunately she didn't ask, otherwise, Kim Kardashian would have been depressed to death?
Chen Jie's performance in these two games was so eye-catching, almost a god-level performance. How could Nelson not pay attention to it before the game? In fact, Nelson's defense against Chen Jie in this game can be said to be very attentive.
Michael Finley, the most experienced player on the team, is the main defender, and Nowitzki and Dampier have to pay attention to the two inside defenders. Terry even has to double-team from time to time.
It can be said that this is the highest level of treatment that Nelson has given Chen Jie.
To a certain extent, this is also a recognition of Chen Jie's strength.
When Chen Jie got the ball and faced Michael Finley, he still wanted to break through.
Although Michael Finley is a very capable player, and the troika he formed with Nash and others in the past has also shocked the league. But after all, he is old.
His steps are not as flexible as before.
His speed is not as fast as before.
Chen Jie felt that he was quite sure of breaking through Finley.
Chen Jie was very confident when facing Finley.
He changed direction now and walked from the left. When Finlay adjusted his center of gravity, Chen Jie quickly changed direction again. In a very beautiful Rossover, Chen Jie passed Michael Finley.
The fans at the scene did not expect that Chen Jie could defeat the team's old captain so easily, and they were immediately in an uproar.
Kim Kardashian applauded Chen Jie happily.
"Jay is so handsome now!" Kim Kardashian praised Ivanka next to her.
Unexpectedly, Ivanka, who just didn't understand Dampier's hook, nodded this time and said lightly: "Not bad!"
Kim Kardashian was fully focused on the court and didn't even notice Ivanka's abnormality.
Chen Jie passed Finley and was about to hit the basket.
But unexpectedly, at this time, Nowitzki stood in front of Chen Jie.
Nowitzki is not a player who is good at defense.
Although Nowitzki's strength and physical fitness have increased a lot since coming to the United States, he is still a standard European player with excellent shooting, flexible feet, and a high basketball IQ.
Speaking of which, Nowitzki is a bit similar to China's Wang Zhizhi.
There was a joke back then that in fact, in the draft that year, the Mavericks actually wanted Wang Zhizhi more. However, because Chinese players had to go through various procedures to play in the United States, Wang Zhizhi did not make the trip in the end, and the Mavericks chose the German player Nowitzki as a replacement.
Taste.
Regardless of whether this joke is true or false, at least it can be seen that Nowitzki's style is very similar to Wang Zhizhi.
Good shot and good footwork.
Players like this, especially in the post, are very difficult to guard on the offensive end.
But his defense cannot be as tough as that of American players.
More, it depends on consciousness and judgment.
And this ball fully demonstrated this. The timing of Nowitzki's appearance was very accurate, which happened to slow down Chen Jie's impact.
Chen Jie Nai could only slow down, dribble the ball again and start organizing.
The Mavericks defended for the first time, successfully!
Just when Nelson saw this and clenched his fists to celebrate, Chen Jie suddenly jumped up and shot in front of Nowitzki.
The ball hit the net!
Old Nelson was completely stiff! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian. Your monthly vote is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m to read.)
