I am so Accurate

In the end, the Mavericks still didn't take a hot shower.

But for professional athletes of their level, this kind of thing can only make them feel cold and want to pee.

Of course, Sun Hao has heard Eisley tell stories, which can be regarded as experiencing the unique home field advantage of the Celtics in advance.

On the day of the game, Nelson Sr. only arranged basic shooting training.

It seems that he doesn't want his athletes to really catch a cold because of taking a cold shower.

After the training, the players were all chatting in the locker room.

"Sun, have you watched the latest "NBA Insider"?"

Hubert Davis sat not far from Sun Hao and asked him.

Sun Hao shook his head. In order to master the retreat as soon as possible, he basically lived in the system after returning home.

"Bet Barkley and Smith, bet on your first game score."

Sun Hao was stunned for a moment.

Barkley likes to bet on this thing, and he knew it in his previous life.

During the previous draft, because he was sitting behind the media area, he heard all of the "thousand-dollar bet".

But knowing that Barkley was a jerk, he turned around and forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, Barkley turned around and bet on him again.

This is... caught him as a sheep and squeezed it hard?

"How many points?"

Nowitzki's closet was next to Sun Hao, and he turned his head curiously.

"0 points, he bet two thousand dollars with Smith."

"Sun, don't mind, that guy was a big mouth when he was a player."

Nowitzki gave Davis a blank look when he said this.

If this kind of thing is said in the locker room, Sun Hao will be somewhat embarrassed.

"Hubert, come and help me hear this song."

Finley beckoned Davis over.

I have to say that the Mavericks are really a bunch of nice guys.

Sun Hao smiled, indicating that he didn't care.

He really didn't care either.

Barkley is the kind of person who likes to make gimmicks, no matter how eye-catching he comes.

There are many such people in life, and there is a characteristic, the more you pay attention to him, the more energetic he will be, but if you treat him as a fart, he will become boring.

"I don't mean anything else, Sun, don't worry, I will pass the ball to you."

Davis, who was said a few words in private by Finley, also came back to speak at this time.

Sun Hao nodded with a smile.

Historically, the NBA debuts of Asian players have not been very good.

Needless to say, Yao Ming scored 0 points in his regular season debut. Yi Jianlian only scored 3 points in his first preseason game and left the field with 6 fouls.

Wang Zhizhi was the player with the most points in his debut, scoring 6 points.

But those points were all in garbage time, and his teammates kept feeding him the ball at that time.

He played 8 minutes as a role player and got 5 shots.

So in comparison, with the current level of Asian players, and considering that he is a short defender, it is not surprising that Barkley thinks so.

Or in other words, if there is no garbage time in the game, it is really not easy for Sun Hao to score points in his debut.

This is an episode of the locker room.

However, this small episode made Sun Hao look forward to the evening game even more.

Euroleague, summer league, scrims...

Every event is like a step up, and the intensity of the competition is getting stronger and stronger.

In the evening, he will experience the preseason game.

Although the preseason is not considered a record, it is more of a training game for each team, but the level is real.

Whether Barkley is slapped in the face or not is secondary. Whether he can perform well in the preseason and win himself a rotation position in the regular season is the most important thing.

...

That night, the North Shore Garden Arena was full of seats, and the Celtics seemed to have returned to their peak.

There is one biggest difference between the NBA preseason and the regular season in this era. In order to promote more events, it is free.

This is why the North Shore Garden Arena, which has had a decline in attendance due to poor records in recent years, will become so full again.

And this seems to explain why the Celtics have to use some tricks even though it is only a preseason game.

Just like the Bulls sent a luxurious lineup to participate in the summer league, they also need to use the preseason victory to sweep away the downturn of last season, boost the morale of the fans, and warm up for the new season.

There was a lot of noise in my ears, and there were many championship flags above my head.

In the North Shore Garden Arena, Sun Hao felt a completely different feeling from when he played in Europe.

The Champions League has the feeling of madness, here it has the gravitas and the excitement that comes from the depths of the soul.

He worked hard for five years and finally set foot on the real NBA arena!

He finally no longer had to sit on the sidelines or be a spectator in front of the TV like in his previous life!

The two sides quickly began to warm up, and Sun Hao also paid attention to the Celtics.

He has a cropped head, no headband, and a green face.

Pierce, sure enough, was there, and in practice uniform, and looked like he could fight.

After watching for a while, Sun Hao could also understand why Kobe regarded Pierce as the most difficult opponent to defend against.

Even if it's only third grade, Pierce seems to have mastered all the ways to score.

After the warm-up was over, Sun Hao glanced around, and he found the faces of many Chinese fans in the audience.

"Welcome to the kingdom of the sun!!"

"Little Emperor of Asia!"

Moreover, they held signs written in Chinese in their hands, which were very eye-catching.

At this time, the NBA has not really opened up the Chinese market. These fans who can come to the scene to support are really touching.

Sun Hao just waved his hand as a signal, without making too many movements, and then took a deep breath.

The only thing that can live up to them is to perform well in the game.

"Don't stress, trust yourself."

At this moment, Nelson got up and walked to Sun Hao, hugged him and said words of encouragement to him.

Sun Hao nodded.

Although I never understood why the little Nelson was so enthusiastic about him, even more enthusiastic than the old Nelson.

But that's not a bad thing.

The game was about to start, and Ernie Johnson, Barkley, and Smith could not wait in the middle of the auditorium on the first and second floors.

TNT has won the preseason broadcast rights for this season, and Barkley and the others can show off their eloquence in the commentary booth.

"I heard that the Mavericks players took a cold shower in Boston yesterday, and the Bostonians didn't even provide them with hot water."

Gossip news is their favorite.

"Looks like the Celtics want to win this game and start their season off right."

Ernie Johnson soon discovered the truth of the matter.

"They need this, the last time they had a season above .500 was eight years ago, man, you look at those championship banners over your head and you don't deserve to wear them."

Barkley said and pointed to the sky above the arena.

"Yeah, so maybe the intensity of this game will not be just a pre-season game, we will see a very intense game."

Ernie Johnson nodded in agreement, and the two of them warmed up for the live broadcast of the game.

"So Charles, are you ready for two thousand dollars this time?"

Smith asked next.

"No, why should I prepare? Kenny, that's what you need to prepare. I'm sure I'll win this time!"

After Barkley finished speaking, Johnson laughed out loud.

He found that rather than chatting about the game, it was more fun for the two of them to make some bets and fight in the commentary booth.

Listening to the fight between the two big bastards, Johnson then looked at Sun Hao who was sitting on the bench.

In fact, he is also looking forward to what kind of performance this European guard from Asia can perform on the NBA stage.

You must know that players of the yellow race have never proved themselves on this field.

"beep!"

A long whistle sounded from the sidelines.

The game started immediately, and the starting players of the two teams appeared one after another.

For the Mavericks, Nash, Eisley, Finley, Nowitzki, Laettner.

Celtics side, Kenny Anderson, Bryant Stitch, Pierce, Antoine Walker, Mark Blunt.

As Barkley and the others said, the two teams formed regular lineups at the beginning of the game, and the game was fierce from the beginning.

Blount won the first attack opportunity for the Celtics. Pierce broke through Finley in the frontcourt, went inside and confronted Laettner and caused a foul.

A group of insiders turned their backs, and Pierce fell to the ground, but immediately turned over with a grunt, walked to the free throw line and made two free throws.

Eisley missed a layup with an air cut, and Walker slammed the backcourt after getting the rebound.

It's still Pierce, who quickly received a pass from Anderson, flew up and directly dunked with one hand gliding!

Nowitzki received a pass from the top of the arc and hit a three-pointer, scoring for the Mavericks.

Turning around, it was Pierce again, and there was still a mid-range shot that stopped after shaking Finley!

He scored 7 points in a row in the opening game!

Being stabbed 11 times in Xia Tian didn't make him timid, on the contrary it seemed to make him extremely powerful!

The cheers of the fans at the scene have exploded.

They really need a new soul of the team. Since Bird retired, and now Pierce has escaped death, people can see that potential!

In the next round, Sun Hao saw the floor tactics that Eisley said.

Nash and Nowitzki made a high pick-and-roll on the left, and Nash obviously didn't get up on the first dribble.

Walker made a quick steal, the Celtics turned around and played a fast break, and Stich scored another 2 points in a fast break.

Sun Hao... silently noted down the location of the floor.

Finley's breakthrough added two points for the Mavericks, but such a score is a drop in the bucket for the Mavericks.

The Celtics started off very smoothly, coupled with some "inexplicable" mistakes being interrupted from time to time, the Mavericks quickly fell into a disadvantageous situation.

Old Nelson changed players early, but he never turned the situation around.

After the first quarter, the score on the court was 16 to 27, and they were already 11 points behind.

No one expected such a situation. We must know that the strength of the two teams is obviously superior to that of the Mavericks.

It can only be said that Pierce is in very good condition tonight, and the North Shore Garden Arena lives up to the name of "the home of the devil".

During the break between the first and second quarters, Old Nelson walked to the end of the bench and called out to Sun Hao.

Seeing Old Nelson's gesture, Sun Hao's eyes burst into excitement.

After sitting off the field for a quarter, he is finally going to play!
