On the way to the training facility, Zhao Chen saw the expectations of Los Angeles fans about the playoffs.
Many reporters and fans also gathered at the entrance of the training hall.
There was no intensity training in the morning, but the coaching staff was emphasizing the tactical arrangements for the afternoon game.
These tactical arrangements have been emphasized countless times, but the coaching staff is still a little worried. There are too many rookies in the Lakers. Their understanding of tactics is different from the veterans, and they need to spend more energy to teach them. .
After eating a nutritious meal early at noon, I went directly to Staples Center to warm up after taking a lunch break.
............
The bus slowly stopped at the entrance of Staples Arena.
The entire Lakers team appeared in suits with the logo printed on them. The suits were sponsored by Zhao Chen's sponsor.
A set is worth about $20,000.
NBA players all have good figures. When they wear uniforms, they show their collective handsomeness.
Just like a group of beauties from a beauty pageant appearing together.
Where is this place?
This is Los Angeles!
This is an entertainment city.
The media likes it best when players work so cooperatively to create topics.
"The Lakers Model Team goes out!" 》
"Zhao Chen is so handsome in formal attire!" 》
The shock of the Lakers' first appearance in the playoffs blinded fans.
"Kakakaka!!!"
Before the game even started, the entire Lakers team was trending on the search.
"Fuck, awesome, model team!"
"The entire Lakers team seems to have a sense of collective honor, which is very Chinese."
"Zhao Chen has had a great influence on the Lakers."
"Lick the screen, I am a female fan, Zhao Chen is so handsome today."
"Lakers championship!!!"
Press conference hall.
The entire Spurs team is being interviewed by reporters.
But when the entire Lakers team entered, the reporters abandoned the Spurs players and rushed towards the Lakers players.
Only GDP was surrounded by a few reporters, and the other players were all alone...
Parker looked at this scene and said helplessly to the reporter: "They look like they are participating in a beauty pageant."
To be honest, Parker envied the energetic spirit displayed by all the Lakers.
Duncan watched this scene with wide eyes.
How can we do so many bells and whistles in a playoff game?
Duncan was a bit old-fashioned and couldn't figure it out.
...........
When asked by reporters why he was wearing suits, Zhao Chen replied: "We are expressing our determination to stand together. This is my idea. I hope that the team can be united from the inside out..."
The reporter asked: "Are you confident you can beat the Spurs?"
Zhao Chen said: "Of course, our goal is the championship and we will not stop in the first round."
The reporter asked: "What tactics do you think Popovich will use against you?"
When Zhao Chen heard this name, his face instantly turned cold. He didn't like this old guy when he came back from his previous life.
Zhao Chen said: "I don't care, just come."
Zhao Chen didn't stay in the press conference hall for long. He quickly returned to the locker room.
Put on your gear and warm up!
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
.........
The Spurs' players warmed up earlier than the Lakers, and they took shots in the other half.
Leonard made consecutive three-pointers and he felt that his rhythm was good.
Leonard has a heavy task today. Not only does he have to take on certain tasks on the offensive end, he also has to defend Zhao Chen alone on the defensive end.
"Kawhi, are you confident in locking Zhao down?" Ginobili came over and patted Leonard.
In Ginobili's eyes, Leonard's character is taciturn. If you want to know his thoughts, you have to take the initiative to come and chat with him.
Leonard shook his head and said: "It's difficult, he has too many scoring methods."
Leonard is deeply afraid of Zhao Chen.
At the end of the season, Zhao Chen also scored 6 consecutive 50+ points, which fully demonstrated his excellent personal offensive status.
Ginobili said: "Although it is difficult, we must do our best to restrict him, otherwise we will not be able to win."
Leonard said: "Well, I know, I will work hard."
........
While the players were warming up, CCTV's commentary team also came to Staples Arena.
In the first game, they came here to give live commentary.
Zhang Weiping stood on the sidelines and said: "The Lakers will face the challenge of the Spurs in the first round of the playoffs. They have home court advantage. Although the Spurs' record is ranked 7th, it does not mean that their strength is like this. They have GDP. With defensive heroes like Leonard and Green, they have extremely rich playoff experience, which will cause trouble for the Lakers."
Xu Jicheng said: "Guide Zhang, who do you think is more optimistic about winning tonight's game?"
Zhang Weiping said: "The Lakers can still win. Zhao Chen's style of play is very restrained against the Spurs. Kawhi Leonard alone cannot deal with Zhao Chen. Of course, the Lakers still need to do a lot of work to win."
Xu Jicheng said: "Then what do you think the Lakers need to do to ensure they win G1?"
Zhang Weiping said: "There are many, such as details and mentality. The difference between the regular season and the playoffs is that every round of the playoffs is very important. If a few details are not done well, it can easily affect the team's morale, and then it will With super giant performance, the playoffs are a stage for super giants, and the positioning of role players will be more functional..."
Zhang Weiping and Xu Jicheng had a good conversation.
Coach Zhang was very excited to come to Staples. He just chatted with Zhao Chen and Kobe during the warm-up...
Not only the CCTV team came to the live broadcast, but TV stations from as many as 30 countries and regions, including TNT, came to conduct live interviews and live broadcasts.
Of course, more people didn't come to the scene. It is reported that more than 180 countries and regions will choose to broadcast the NBA playoffs.
Lakers games are all high-octane games.
Domestically, although the Lakers game started in the early morning, there were still many fans watching online.
"Support Zhao Chen, support Kobe, Lakers championship!"
"The Lakers will win G1 smoothly!!"
"Come on Zhao Chen, come on Volute!!"
Kobe represents the youth of many fans, while Zhao Chen represents the future of the Lakers.
In the season when Zhao Chen took over from Kobe Bryant, Zhao Chen brought countless shocks to Lakers fans.
85 points in a single game, 68 points in three quarters, 18 three-pointers in a single game....
Zhao Chen's madness has made the Lakers, who were already very popular, even higher.
The Lakers have also become one of the home teams of domestic fans. Every rookie of the Lakers is well known to the fans, and the fans know their characteristics well.
Fans care about every game of the Lakers. They hope to see Zhao Chen lead the Lakers back to the top.
Kobe, who is nearing retirement, can win a championship at the end of his career!
Playoffs G1!
ready! !
