The next day.
The team took a private plane to Portal.
5 PM.
Moda Center Stadium, inside the locker room of the Laker.
The players were changing jerseys and shoes, but Randall found Coach Warton, who was wiping his forehead and meditating, and said,""Coach, I want Qin Rui to start.”
"Oh?"
Wharton was rather surprised to hear this.
Randall continued," The Blazers are very strong, especially Lillard and McCollum. They have very strong firepower.”
"Because of Qin Rui, the Laker has just gotten better. I hope he can play earlier to help the team.”
"As for me, if I can be Qin Rui's substitute and give the team some help, I'll be especially happy to help the team win.”
Hearing this.
Coach Warton was stunned for a moment, then nodded in relief.
He had been meditating just now because he was thinking that this was the only way to get Qin Rui into the starting lineup as soon as possible while ensuring the atmosphere in the team's locker room.
Now that Randall had come up with this plan, it was a natural outcome.
"That's right, Qin Rui should be in the starting lineup.”
"With Qin Rui starting, the team will play better.”
"Coach, let Qin Rui start."
At the same time.
Ingram, Lobez, and the others also stood up and signaled for Qin Rui to start. Warton smiled and said,"Alright, from today onwards, Qin Rui will be the first to play.”
At the same time.
In the Blazers 'locker room.
Manager Terry Stotters called the players over and said,""Guys, the video about Qin Rui on the Internet is 90% credible, or even more.”
"But as the first experimental team, we still can't take it lightly.”
"At the start of the match, defend normally and test a few balls. If Qin Rui has a choice, he will still prioritize the low left post attack.”
"Then we can conclude that his attack area is there.”
"Then we'll take a targeted defense, understand?!”
"Understood."
The Blazers players nodded.
......
9 PM.
There was still half an hour before the game. The team walked out of the player tunnel and onto the court.
"Eh ~~"
Almost at the same time as the Laker players arrived at the stadium, there were bursts of sighs in the stadium.
"Hey, you little brat who only has fixed-point shots, your good days are over.”
"You only know how to shoot from the low left area? That won't do."
"You only practiced a little shooting during the off-season, and you want to deceive our eyes? You want to get rid of the title of the top scorer?! Isn't that too whimsical?"
"I have a feeling that Qin Rui won't score more than 10 points tonight.”
"10 points, you think too highly of him. 5 points can't go any higher.”
"Hahaha!"
The piercing taunts fell into the ears of Qin Rui and all the players.
" This bunch of guys!!!"
Randall's eyes were filled with rage, and he was about to explode.
Lobez approached Qin Rui, patted the number 3 on his jersey, and whispered,""This is the Blazers 'home field. This is the home field advantage. You have to learn to endure and adapt.”
"This is the path that every superstar must take.”
Qin Rui nodded lightly, his expression normal.
With the support of his Braveheart, he completely ignored these taunts. His heart was as calm as still water, and he was not affected at all.
In the studio at the back.
Today's commentators were O'Neal and Barkley.
"Sha Kui, do you think Qin Rui's performance tonight will still be superb?! Especially after watching the video that went viral on Youtube.”
Barkley asked.
O'Neal smiled and said," I believe in Qin Rui unconditionally. Countless people analyzed my offensive mode back then, but who could stop me from scoring?!”
"Hey, Shaque, this is different. You're a pure inside player. Other than your skills, your physical talent is an absolute advantage.”
"That's not something that can be solved immediately by analysis.”
Barkley shook his head.
"That seems reasonable."
O'Neal smiled awkwardly." But Qin Rui's performance in these three games isn't only good on offense. His defense is also very strong.”
"In short, I think he can still play well.”
Barkley tapped the table with his fingers." I believe Qin Rui too, but there's a premise. He can't be exactly the same as the video analysis."”
"We'll see when the competition begins.”
O'Neill avoided the topic and continued,""The Blazers are currently ranked sixth in the Western Conference, but they are only one match away from Thunderclap, who is ranked fourth in the Western Conference.”
"The season has just begun, and they have a chance of breaking into the top three in the Western Conference.”
"The Blazers are the fiercest in the backfield. The Blazers and McCollum are the core of this team, the biggest offensive weapon.”
" Last night, the Blazers played against the Grizzlies at home. Lillard made 6 of 11 three-pointers and scored 35 points. McCollum made 4 of 9 three-pointers and scored 27 points. He scored 62 points with two shots in the backcourt. The Grizzlies, who are known for their defense, were shot to death by these two guys.”
"If the Los Angeles team wants to win in an away game, they must limit Lillard and McRumm's play.”
"Haha." Barkley smiled and said," Shaquille, aren't you being a little too serious? Not long ago, the Laker was the worst team in the league.”
"The west is also the last."
"Even if we lose to the Blazers, it's not impossible.”
"No." O'Neal shook his head and said seriously," That was the previous team. The current team with Qin Rui can't be described as a weak team.”
Hearing this.
Barkley was slightly stunned.
.....
The commentator continued to talk, enlivening the atmosphere in the studio. At the same time, the warm-up time on the field ended, and the starting lineup of both teams began to slowly enter the field.
"Stomp!"
Qin Rui took a step forward and walked onto the court.
"Eh ~~~"
At the same time.
Sighs erupted in the arena again.
"Hehe, Qin Rui is actually in the starting lineup? What did he mean? They wanted Qin Rui to continue leading the Los Angeles team to victory?!”
"How can a player who only knows how to attack from the low post on the left lead the team to victory?!”
"Don't be ridiculous. Qin Rui is already dead. He will be locked up tonight and become a useless player. Don't expect him to contribute to the team.”
"This is Pole, not a place where a second-rate top scorer can behave atrociously.”
The Blazers fans 'taunts came one after another.
Qin Rui was calm and collected.
Just as Qin Rui walked onto the court, the system notification sounded in his mind.
