Chapter 862 The two elders arrive and the second round of battle begins!
On May 3rd, Wang Zelin got up early, not to catch up with training, but because of the arrival of his parents. In tonight's first game of the regional semifinals, the two elders will watch the game live and cheer for his son.
Speaking of which, as early as the start of the Trail Blazers playoffs, Wang Zelin asked his second boss when he would come to watch the game. After receiving the news, his second boss immediately replied that he would be there in a few days.
As a result, the first round was over, and my parents were still living their two-person world in Europe.
Emmm, if it weren't for the fact that my mother is a bit old, I would probably have multiple brothers or sisters by now.
Finally, at the end of April, my parents, tired of playing in Europe, finally gave Wang Zelin a confirmation that he would arrive in Portland on the morning of May 3rd, and he didn’t plan to leave until he finished the season.
After the game, the family of three returned to China's hometown of Fujian.
Oh, by the way, my mother repeatedly asked me to invite Wang Zelin’s second officially announced girlfriend and her prospective daughter-in-law to go back together.
Well, you don’t need to think about it to know that after returning to his hometown, Wang Zelin will definitely encounter a wave of marriage pressure from his mother and relatives and friends.
…
At 8 o'clock in the morning, Wang Zelin went to the airport to take the two elders back home. After breakfast, Wang Zelin went to the arena to practice ball. The elders sat in the corners of the arena and walked around.
The Rose Garden, the home arena of the Trail Blazers, was officially put into use in the fall of 1995, so it has been 21 years.
In addition, don’t forget that Paul Allen, the owner of the Trail Blazers, is a well-known super rich person. With the team’s record in the sky, as the times continue to advance and the use of high technology is increasing, he is also willing to pay for it.
The money was used to upgrade the Rose Basketball Hall step by step.
Therefore, even though it was not the first time for the two elders to visit the Rose Garden Arena, after walking around for a while, they still couldn't help but marvel at the advancement of the American arena.
The gap in basketball standards between China and the United States can be seen in the arena.
According to statistics, there are already more than 100,000-capacity stadiums in China, but there are only a handful of modern stadiums as high-tech and intelligent as the Rose Garden Arena.
The Trail Blazers' Rose Garden Arena is not only a simple gymnasium, but also a multi-functional arena that integrates eating, drinking, having fun and watching games.
First of all, it can accommodate more than 20,000 spectators, ranking among the top among all arenas in the league. And team owner Paul Allen made a promise before the start of this year's playoffs:
If the Trail Blazers can achieve three consecutive championships this year, they will spend nine figures to renovate and improve the Rose Garden Arena.
By then, the capacity of the Rose Garden Arena will most likely usher in a new round of surge, and may even become the largest arena in the league.
Of course, even now, the internal facilities of the Rose Garden Arena are still one of the most advanced arenas in the league.
A total of 800 TVs are installed in the arena to facilitate fans to follow the progress of the game at any time; the middle floor of the arena is composed of luxury suites, each suite can accommodate 22 people; there is also a set of special sound control equipment hanging on the top of the arena.
This device can reflect the noise from the audience back into the arena to create a more lively atmosphere.
The overall design of the arena is outstanding, integrating luxurious equipment and high-tech equipment. Other facilities such as restaurants, club meeting rooms, etc. are all very luxuriously decorated.
After walking out of the arena, you are surrounded by the commercial district, which integrates the professional attributes of the arena with the entertainment attributes of the surrounding commercial areas.
You can enter the arena at any time while shopping, and you can also enter the surrounding commercial areas between watching games.
It can be said that the existence of this arena alone has promoted economic development nearby.
Seeing all kinds of staggering high technologies, Wang Changhai couldn't help but sigh: "If you want to do basketball well, you must first improve the infrastructure. In terms of infrastructure, there are many advanced concepts and ideas.
, we must all learn from Lao Mi..."
"Of course, we can't copy the homework, we have to study a feasible plan based on the national conditions..."
Just as the old father was giving directions, his mother Lin Huiqing next to him immediately glared at him.
"Come on, come on, you're not a leader, whatever you say won't work, just take a look. Look at you talking in the same way, you need to take the postgraduate entrance examination..."
Wang Changhai could only laugh at himself after hearing this. As the main center of the Fujian Men's Basketball Team in the past, he was also a teammate with the "God of War" Liu Yudong. After retiring, he would have the opportunity to work in the Basketball Association and even become a member of the management.
member.
However, because he really couldn't stand the rigors of officialdom, he refused the leadership's arrangement.
Looking back now, if he had really gone to the Blue Association back then, with his personality, he would have caused a lot of trouble.
Fortunately, his son is ambitious enough to make a name for himself in a foreign country, and may even become an important legend in the history of basketball development in the future.
Thinking about it from another angle, as the father of a future generation of legends, he has made a major contribution to the development of basketball!
…
…
The time came to 19:30, and the game between the two teams started at 20:00. The Lakers arrived at the arena as early as 16:00 in the afternoon.
By this time, the lights inside the arena were brightly lit, and there were already crowds of people outside.
As the upstarts in the league, the Trail Blazers have dominated the league in the past two seasons; the Lakers are also a veteran powerhouse, and they have gathered the Big Three combination of Kobe and Paul Sol, making the two teams that are already attracting a lot of attention, coupled with
Dozens of international superstars attended the game.
From the Tianchao side alone, nearly a hundred stars from all walks of life came, making the Rose Garden Arena sparkle with stars.
Wang Changhai and his wife sat in a row of auditoriums behind the Trail Blazers' bench, a proper VIP exclusive seat!
The seats in this row are placed outside, and have been sold to five-digit prices, and many people can't even get them with money.
It's not that Wang Zelin can't arrange it in the first row, but sitting in the first row is risky.
Considering that professional athletes often weigh more than 80 kilograms, there are even super strong men like Wang Zelin who weigh more than 120 or 30 kilograms.
If they were stabbed in the body when they jumped out to save the ball, I'm afraid not many people would be able to bear it.
Didn't you see that the front row spectators in the O'Neal career highlights looked so frightened and uneasy at that time that they almost thought they were about to leave this beautiful world.
Next is the appearance ceremony for the players from both sides. The Lakers' appearance ceremony is very simple. After all, it is an away game. Instead of doing too many bells and whistles, it is better to win and slap in the face directly.
Then the Trail Blazers came on the scene. After every player came out, they immediately attracted bursts of cheers and applause from the 20,000 fans in the Rose Garden Arena.
When Wang Zelin was the last one to appear, the atmosphere at the scene reached its first peak tonight. Everyone made the same sound at this moment - mvp!
