Chapter 42 Delon: I am definitely not a supporting role!
At this time, the Rockets' star player, known as "Big F" by Chinese fans, walked over.
"Yao, Mr. Auerbach is here too. As a senior and famous player, let's go and say hello to him!"
Yao Ming nodded. Since Red Cardinal was a legendary Celtics player and had come, they, as his juniors, naturally had to step forward and say hello.
"Coach Zhang, I have to excuse myself for a moment."
"go Go!"
As Coach Zhang spoke, he looked at the Cardinal sitting on the sidelines.
He sighed, "Cardinal, it seems that you are fighting hard for Dayu. This is the second game. Will you come to watch every game from now on? I wonder where Dayu will go in the end?"
When Ferguson and Yao Ming came in front of the Cardinal, there were already quite a few NBA players in front of the Cardinal.
Stephen Marbury, Alan Houston, Anfernee Hardaway and others surrounded the cardinal at this time.
Yao Ming and Ferguson came over to greet the Cardinal.
The cardinal responded enthusiastically: "What an outstanding group of young people, the future belongs to you."
Alan Houston, the 'Central Shooter King', asked, "Mr. Auerbach, you came to Madison Square Garden today because of Lin Yu, right?"
"Of course, who else can I do this for besides Lin Yu? He is the hope of our Celtics. I have to keep an eye on him and not let other teams take him away!"
The cardinal joked as he spoke.
Hearing the cardinal's joke, everyone laughed.
Wow!
There was a burst of applause mixed with cheers, which instantly attracted the attention of several people.
When the cardinal saw Lin Yu walking out of the player tunnel, a smile appeared on his face.
"You guys should go back to your seats quickly and stop accompanying an old man like me. Even if you want to accompany me, I don't want to see you."
The Cowboys walked out of the player tunnel and were preparing to warm up on the field.
Lin Yu also saw Dayao at this time. After all, Dayao's height and his identity as a yellow man made him too conspicuous.
"So many celebrities! Lin, look, that's Will Smith. I really like watching his performance in Men in Black. Do you think he will give me an autograph if I ask him for one?"
Tony could hardly control himself when he saw his favorite star.
At Tony's reminder, Lin Yu also took a look at the big-name fans who had come.
Then he said to himself, "I now understand why NBA players like big markets. To some extent, the exposure or connections are a great asset."
Today is actually also a focus showdown.
Lin Yu was already very popular, and the Celtics and Bulls were playing badly for Lin Yu, which further increased Lin Yu's popularity.
Many people want to see how strong this 'Chamberlain II' is.
In addition, in this game, the opponent is the Tactical Team, one of the NCAA championship seeds.
This undoubtedly greatly increases the highlights!
It can be said that, for now, this basketball game is the most popular one in the whole of America.
Whether it's the NBA or the NCAA, there's no game more popular than this one. Showing your face here is no different from walking the red carpet.
Therefore, it attracted many celebrities to watch the game.
Of course, some of these stars definitely came to watch the game because they like basketball, and only some came because of the arrangement of their agents.
Will Smith, Denzel Washington, Spike Lee and others are among the list.
In addition, there are a number of beautiful stars, such as Megan Fox, Jessica Alba, Charlize Theron, Anne Hathaway and so on.
When Lin Yu walked onto the court, Yao Ming also took the initiative to come over and greet Lin Yu.
"Hello, Lin Yu. I'm Dayao. I'm older than you. You can call me Brother Yao."
"Brother Yao, hello, I'm a little surprised. I didn't expect that you would be able to come and watch my game today."
Yao Ming smiled when he heard Lin Yu's words. "I've wanted to watch your game for a long time, but the NBA schedule has always been very busy. I just happened to come to New York to play today."
Lin Yu also knows that NBA players are actually very busy.
At least 14 games are played in a month, and sometimes even 16 games.
A game every two days, even back-to-back, and that doesn't include the time on the road.
And it doesn’t mean that you can rest if you don’t play games.
Training is also an essential part of NBA players' daily life.
"I heard that your opponent this time is very strong. Do you have the confidence to defeat him?"
"Yes! Not only do we want to beat the Warriors, we want to win the championship!"
Hearing Lin Yu's confident words, the curve of Dayao's mouth widened.
"Okay! It's good to have confidence! When you make it to the finals, I will take a leave of absence and go to cheer you on."
"Then it's settled!"
"A word is settled!"
Yao Ming also knew that Lin Yu would face a strong opponent next, so he returned to the bench after a brief chat with Lin Yu.
When Lin Yu started warming up, the University of Illinois Warriors also started warming up.
Delong looked at Lin Yu with a hint of envy in his eyes, but also full of fighting spirit!
Although he is also a talented player, he does not receive the same treatment as Lin Yu.
Before joining the league, the team started to play badly for Lin Yu, and stars and legends came to watch the game.
He knew very well that the real protagonist today was Lin Yu!
But is he really willing to be a supporting role?
Not reconciled!
Deron is now ready to tell everyone with practical actions.
I!
Delon definitely doesn't want to be a supporting role!
"Defeated Chris? That's right. If I defeat Lin Yu and then Felton, I will be the No. 1 point guard in the NCAA!"
Since this is the focus of today's battle, the on-site commentary will also be done by "Flying Pig" Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith.
"Charles, today is undoubtedly a focus game. According to the media rankings, the University of Illinois Warriors are ranked second by the media, and their strength is even stronger than the Cowboys."
"Which team do you think will win this game?"
"Kenny, I definitely think highly of the Cowboys team where my successor Lin Yu is!"
Smith:???
Can we please have some shame?
"Charles, Lin Yu said before that he doesn't want to be Feizhu's successor, so don't play tricks on me."
"I don't care. Anyway, Lin Yu is the successor of Feizhu."
Barkley just started to act like a rogue at this point.
If it wasn't a live broadcast, Smith really wanted to chop his partner to pieces with a knife.
Damn it.
"The game is about to start, let's commentate on the game!"
The Cowboys' starting lineup: point guard John Lucas III, shooting guard Tony Allen, small forward Joey Graham, power forward Lin Yu, and center Holmes.
The Warriors' starting lineup: point guard Dee Brown, shooting guard Deron Williams, small forward Luther Head, power forward James Augustine, and center Steven Bradrick.
Beep!
With the referee's whistle, the focus battle of the round of 16 officially began.
