"This ball is really cool!"
"Yeah, who would have thought that this was played by a 2.16-meter center forward? He's too agile!"
"Compared to Big Yao, his talent is better and his athletic ability is really good!”
"It can only be roughly compared.”
Because it was only a preseason match, not many people paid attention to Mother Yang's live broadcast, but there would always be people watching.
Especially since the NBA had two players that domestic fans were familiar with, Big Yao and Dazhi. There were still people who wanted to see them.
Unfortunately, due to their strength, they did not get to fight much.
However, Dayao needed to rest after the World Championship. Even if he rushed to meet up with the Rockets, he would miss the preseason.
The results of this year's World Championship weren't ideal. He had nearly gotten 12th place.
On the one hand, it was a lack of general information, and Big Yao had no helpers inside. On the other hand, the national men's basketball team was also in a period of replacement. The young players were still unable to adapt to the high-intensity world competition. They were inexperienced and made many mistakes.
However, there was also something worthy of praise. In the group stage, they once led the Dream Team by 12 points.
Although they were forced by their opponents in the second half, they were able to see that these young players were full of vigor and were not afraid of tigers.
This year's Dream Team had Paul Pierce, Reggie Miller, Shawn Marion, Big Ben, Little O'Neal, Big Beard Davis, and this year's second-runner-up, Jay Williams.
Other than the latter, the others were all famous star players.
It was expected that the national team would lose to the Dream Team.
To be able to lead the Dream Team by 12 points was enough to make people excited. They had high expectations for this group of young players.
Of course, the results of the national team were not the worst.
The Dream Team, which was known as the world's number one team and had never lost in any world competition, had a huge upset. It lost the qualification to the finals for the first time and was only ranked sixth in this year's World Championship.
This result caused fans all over the world to explode.
However, thinking about it, the star players of this year's Dream Team Five weren't very good. None of the top four shooting guards participated. O'Neal, Chris Webb, and the others in the paint also refused to play. In terms of strength, they were much weaker than any previous season.
But even so, the dignity of the Dream Team was shattered. From being high and mighty, they instantly fell from the altar.
They deserved the title of the most miserable Dream Team and were directly nailed to the shame rack.
With such a shocking tragedy, the results of the Chinese National Basketball Team were really not worth mentioning.
Now, the fans only wanted to see Yao's NBA journey as soon as possible.
However, before Big Yao's debut, they were blown up by a young player who appeared out of nowhere.
His performance of 14 points per game shocked everyone.
The appearance of such a young general with an explosive performance immediately became the focus of countless people's attention.
All of a sudden, the streets and alleys were filled with all kinds of questions.
"Who is this guy?"
"Where did this Duke come from? So fierce?"
"What happened to Big Yao? Why did such a ruthless person suddenly appear?”
"The genius Duke? There was such a person in the NBA?”
Not only the fans, but all the sports media, including Yang Ma, were crazily reporting Duke and his eight preseason performances.
It could be said that Duke's reputation had already risen before the regular season even began.
Before Yao Yao's debut, Duke was the most talked about by the commentator team.
On this day, Su Qun, Zhang Weiping, Xu Jicheng, Yu Jia, Yang Yi, and the others watched Duke's highlights of the eight preseason games. They were full of praise and wished they could use all the adjectives to describe Duke.
They had never seen a player as tall and talented as Duke, who had excellent playing style and athletic ability.
Whether it was Dazhi, Dayao, Bashi, or the seniors from before, none of them were related to Duke.
Moreover, Yang Yi, Xu Jicheng, and the other commentators who had studied the history of the NBA, thought that Duke's athletic ability could be ranked among the best in history.
They even thought that Duke might be more athletic than the domestic perimeter players.
Duke's appearance was like a group of herbivorous dragons suddenly charging out of a raptor. He flew past their field of vision at high speed and refreshed their impression of the domestic players.
When Yu Jia sighed at Duke's talent, Yang Yi said bluntly,"
"Generally speaking, his jumping and explosive power are not as good as his.”
"Duke is probably the most talented player in the basketball world.”
Although the others did not comment on Yang Yi's straightforward praise and belittling of his seniors, they actually agreed with him in their hearts.
In the highlights, Duke received Jordan's breakthrough pass, took a step into the Celtics 'paint, rushed into the basket, and made a powerful slam dunk...
This shot alone showed Duke's mobility, explosiveness, and speed.
They had never seen an insider like Duke, who was believed to be a forward guard.
"Have you found his information?"
Suddenly, Director Zhang Weiping, who had been silent all this while, asked.
"I found it."
Yang Yi picked up a piece of paper from the table and smiled."If our Mother Yang takes action, what else can't she find out?”
As he spoke, he began to read from the paper in his hand.
"Duke, father Du Jianguo, from Yongzhou City, Guixi Province…"
"Father, I studied at Fudan University in Shanghai in my early years. When I was in my third year, I stayed in America to work because I had the opportunity to study abroad. His father was one of the earliest batch of college students after the college entrance examination. Although he was older during the college entrance examination, he was admitted to Fudan University.”
"Before Du Jianguo went abroad, he married and had children in Yongzhou City. He then moved to Shanghai to live with them. After he went abroad, he chose to stay in Silicon Valley due to the generous treatment offered by a certain company when he graduated. He would only come back for a vacation during the New Year and summer vacation every year.”
"A few years after he went abroad, his wife passed away due to illness, leaving Duke alone at his grandmother's house. Then, when Duke was eight or nine years old, he was brought to America.”
"After that, we all learned about it from Du Jianguo, so we won't explain it anymore.”
After Yang Yi finished reading Duke's information, Zhang Weiping suddenly sighed and said,"Could it be that Duke has such talent because he ate foreign food?”
"It can't be, right?"
You're making the moon in a foreign country rounder than it is at home. This is not desirable.
Everyone shook their heads speechlessly.
They didn't comment on what Duke grew up on to have such talent, but they were looking forward to the upcoming regular season.
"I hope he can perform like this in the regular season. That way, we'll have another talent.”
"Yes, don't be like that…"
"Duke said that he won't change his nationality, right? I'm really looking forward to it."
