Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 50 Never Easy
"Back to the familiar arena again, and started a new journey. Hello everyone, I am your old friend Billy King. It is a great honor for me to be the first home game of the Warriors. Today we invited the famous Warriors Mr. Rick Barry, say hello to everyone."

"Hey, everyone!" A handsome middle-aged guy with a back hair was sitting on the commentary and said.

"Barry, did you watch yesterday's game? Tell me what you think of this Warriors team?" Billy King asked.

"I watched it. It was a very exciting game. Wester Lee's three-pointer was impressive, but relying on three-pointers alone cannot go very far. They still have a long way to go in terms of team running-in and rookie training. What's more, the Suns they faced yesterday were not a strong team, and today's Nuggets are the real test for them."

"It is true, but the luck of this Nuggets is really bad. Although they defeated the Spurs 134-104 in yesterday's game, in this game, the Nuggets lost two generals in a row, Kelvin Knight He and Wayne Cooper were both injured successively. Judging from the starting roster I got, neither of them should be able to play today. Haha." Billy King teased Rick Barry.

"You didn't say it earlier, Billy, do you know? You've turned bad! Although you weren't a good person in the first place!" Rick Barry also responded, and it was obvious that the relationship between the two was quite good.

"Let's gossip less, the players are starting to enter the field, let's welcome our heroes with the warmest applause and cheers!" After seeing the players preparing to enter the field, Billy King skillfully began to stir up the atmosphere.

"..."

"Next let's welcome the team's starting guard, West Lee, who is 6-foot-2 from Stanford University and wears jersey No. 99."

With the sound of live broadcast in the arena, Li Weisi slowly ran into the arena from the passageway, and more than 15000 people at the scene burst into loud cheers.

From the booing during the draft to the cheering all over the sky, Li Weisi only spent one game. Of course, if he cannot maintain his excellent performance in the next game, the cheering today may return to booing. Fans are such a reality.

Li Weisi followed behind Chris Mullin and was the team's second appearance, and the team's last entry was naturally Moses Malone.

At this time, Li Weisi did not have the strength to compare with Ma Long in popularity. Fortunately, Li Weisi himself didn't care about this.

"Hey brother, here it is!"

Although Candice's yelling seemed insignificant in the noisy arena, fortunately, Candice was sitting in the back row of the bench, so Li Weisi could still hear her.

After the appearance ceremony was over, Li Weisi came to the bench and touched Candice's head, and said, "There's no need to be so loud, right? The distance between us is not even one meter."

Candice seemed to be a bit resistant to Li Weisi touching her head, she reached out and slapped Li Weisi's hand away, and said, "It's too noisy here, keep your voice down, how can you hear it?"

"Hey, West, this is your sister? Hello! I'm your brother's teammate, and my name is Mark Price." At this time, Mark Price also came to Li Weisi and greeted Candice .

"Hello!" Candice nodded.

"Hey, sister of West! Hello!" Rodman also came over at this time and greeted Candice.

"..."

It's just that Candice couldn't help shrinking her body behind her mother when facing Rodman who came to say hello.

"Hey, Candice, is someone saying hello to you?" Teresa reminded.

"I don't want it, he doesn't look like a good person." Candice still ignored him.

"..."

"Hahaha, West, your sister is really good at seeing people!" Mark Price laughed.

"Get out!" After driving Price away, Rodman showed a self-conscious expression and said to Candice, "Hey, Candice, I'm not a bad person, I'm your brother's teammate, my name is Rodman!"

Looking at Rodman's big face with a smile that looked like he was crying, Candice shrank back even more.

"..."

It really is a society that looks at faces!

"Hey, West, Dennis, what are you two doing? Come here!" Fortunately, Don Nelson's roar relieved Rodman's embarrassment, and he left here quickly, and ran to Nelson's side obediently .

"Then I'll go there first!" Li Weisi greeted his mother's family first, then nodded to his father.

Li Wantang was fidgeting right now, but after feeling Li Weisi's gaze, he pretended to be calm and said, "Go, fight hard!"

Due to the lack of personnel, the Nuggets had to make changes today and mentioned two substitutes to the starting lineup. The team's starting lineup is Fat Leaf, TR Dunn, Alix English, Mark Yala Rick, Danny Schayers.

The Warriors still maintained yesterday's lineup without changing it. After all, Nelson found the optimal solution for the team's lineup after several preseason games.

In the opening game, the Warriors got the ball. The 211cm tall Danny Schayes still didn't get the ball in front of Malone. After all, Malone's bullet speed is too abnormal.

Li Weisi wanted to advance the frontcourt as quickly as in yesterday's game this time, but before he passed halftime, Fat Leaf on the opposite side was already sticking to him, blocking his rapid advancement.

Li Fu, who is 191cm tall, tried to reach out to steal Li Weisi while blocking Li Weisi. Fortunately, Li Weisi was more cautious and avoided Li Fu's stealing in a disguised form.

However, Li Weisi didn't ask Liv for this, and before he could take two steps, Liv entangled him again.

It's so fast!
I have to say that the defensive pressure that Li Weisi faced tonight was far better than yesterday. Perhaps this is the real defense at the NBA level.

Fortunately, under Li Weisi's protection of the ball, he finally arrived near the opposite three-point line without any danger. However, at this time, the Nuggets' defense had already fallen, and the timing of the fast break had completely disappeared.

After falling into the position, Li Weisi did not stick the ball, and quickly passed the ball to Teague on the wing, and Teague directly lobbed it to Malone on the inside.

In this game, Nelson's plan before the game is to seize the opportunity when the Nuggets are not well-organized, and Malone will launch the main attack.

After receiving the ball, Malone, with his back to the basket, pushed hard, but found that he didn't move.

It's no wonder that although Malone weighs 98 kilograms, Schayes behind him weighs 107 kilograms, a weight difference of nearly 10 kilograms.

Seeing that he could not rely on strength to grab the position, Ma Long immediately changed his method, turned to face the frame, and then used his speed to break through.

This trick really worked. After breaking through Schayers' defense, he made a quick layup. However, at this moment, the bodies of the two made contact again. Malone's layup hand also deformed and the ball missed.

However, Malone did not give up. He once again used his speed and bounce to pocket the rebound, then continued to take off, and finally put the ball in this time.

After struggling to score two points, the possession of the ball was switched, and the Nuggets quickly advanced to the frontcourt.

Leaf's big butt pushed Li Weisi from the three-point line all the way to the free throw line. There was no way.

Then, Leaf did not choose to attack by himself, but turned around and passed the ball to English who ran up from the wing.

English got rid of Mullin's defense, caught the ball at the horns, caught the ball and made a jumper without stopping, and threw the ball before Mullin arrived.

The basketball crossed a beautiful arc and got into the basket. It was a 2:2 tie.

It seems that even if the Nuggets lost two main players, they did not intend to give up tonight's game easily.
