The older superstars of the NBA

With the official opening day of the new cba season approaching, cba officials have also begun to make various publicity, especially the teams with nba stars joining, which have become more eye-catching existences in the promotional videos.

At the same time, the cba also specially imitated the nba and held an opening game.

There are a total of six teams participating in the opening game. By coincidence, these six teams happen to be the six teams with NBA players joining.

The matchups between the two sides are Yanjing Shougang with Dwyane Wade against Beikong with Stephen Marbury, Zhejiang with Jr. Smith against Shandong with Norris Cole, and Zhao Feiyang The Bayi team he joined was against the Pearl Sharks who had just joined Jeremy Lin.

The Shougang team and the North Control team are teams in the same city, and the two sides have often played against each other. Coupled with Marbury's reasons, the grievances between each other are not light, so the news of this matchup aroused the expectations of many fans after it was announced. .

The same is true for the Bayi team and the Sharks. The duel between Jeremy Lin and Zhao Feiyang is a highlight, and Zhao Feiyang's match against his former team is another highlight.

Everyone knows that he left from the Sharks at the beginning, and also knows that Zhao Feiyang specifically rejected the invitation from Yan Lei, the general manager of the Sharks. Very exciting.

that's the truth.

The fans of the Pearl Sharks were very unhappy when they learned that Zhao Feiyang rejected the team. Even if they knew that it was because of the general manager Yan Lei, some people were still very dissatisfied with this.

Now that Jeremy Lin has joined them, the mentality of those fans is greatly satisfied.

Although Jeremy Lin is not as powerful as Zhao Feiyang, at least he was the one who played "Lin Crazy" back then. As a Chinese player, his strength is top-notch among yellow guards, perhaps not as good as Zhao Feiyang, but compared to other defenders. Man he is definitely very strong.

With Jeremy Lin and other foreign aid, the Sharks' lineup is still relatively strong on paper, and they got No.6 in the regular season last season. If you look at the entire league, it's no big deal. Much better than last season's Bayi team!

The fans of the Sharks who failed to get Zhao Feiyang certainly hoped that the team could get rid of the Bayi team, which would be regarded as "revenge" for Zhao Feiyang's refusal of them.

Therefore, the attention of this game is also the highest among the three games. CCTV Sports even arranged a live broadcast program in advance, specially choosing a prime time for fans to watch the opening game between the Bayi team and the Pearl Sharks.

Compared with the above four teams, the Zhejiang team and Shandong team have a slightly weaker presence. Both Jr. Smith and Norris Cole have some attention, but the attention of both parties is limited, and they have no well-known grievances before.

In this way, it is really difficult to publicize the gimmicks and highlights of the competition between the two sides.

Therefore, the opening match between the Zhejiang team and the Shandong team is also the lowest.

After the news of the opening game was publicized, in addition to the expectations of the fans, some other teams also complained about it.

For example, the Xinjiang team and the Liaoning team were both among the top eight playoff teams last season. At the same time, as one of the strong teams in the CBA, they were obviously left out this time.

Not only them, the Guangdong team and the Sichuan team also obviously have some complaints, especially the Guangdong team. They are evergreen trees in the league. They have always received a lot of attention in the domestic league. The basketball atmosphere in Guangdong is even more important in many regions of China. One of the hottest places inside.

Under such circumstances, the cba officials did not arrange for them to play the opening game, which made the former championship team somewhat uncomfortable.

Fans in these places also questioned the CBA company's decision on the Internet.

"What are you doing? If you have foreign aid, you don't need a local team, right?"

"What the hell is Yao Ming thinking? Can't make more arrangements, can't let the Guangdong team find a team to play against? We have won so many championships, isn't it worthy of such attention?"

"That's right. Why do these guys from the NBA start licking their stinky feet as soon as they come? What if the NBA lockout ends and they get out of here in a while, what will happen then? Don't we have to rely on our local strong teams to support the viewing of the league? Spend?"

"Look! When the time comes, the appointment will be another piece of chicken feathers. If it goes on like this, there will definitely be no good results..."

The fans talked a lot, so that CBA had to stand up and issue a statement in response. Yao Ming even stood up in person to make a statement under the reporter's interview.

"It's not that we deliberately ignore other teams! There are still many good teams that could have participated, but the places are limited, and the attention these teams have received has always been high..."

"So we want to try to shift more resources to other teams that don't have much attention..."

"This is not a preference for any team! Fans, please don't get excited. When we play the opening game next time, the teams you want can all be on the wheel..."

Yao Ming's answer did not satisfy the fans.

Nor can the clubs be satisfied.

It's just that being able to make such a gesture is already quite cooperative. Even if the clubs are dissatisfied with this, it is really impossible for them to really make any protests under this situation!

A little disturbance did not affect the enthusiasm of the fans, at least for more people, they are looking forward to the day of the opening game.

And while countless people were waiting, the day of the cba opener finally arrived.

On the day of the match, the Bayi team changed its usual style and distributed the jerseys designed by the team's new designer to the players.

The design of the team uniforms is generally the same as before, with a lot of improvements in details, and it looks better and more energetic.There have also been significant improvements in clothing materials. With Zhao Feiyang's help, the Bayi team took the lead in customizing jerseys that use new technologies.

The players were full of praise after putting it on.

That morning, the players of the Bayi team gathered at the gate of the training base, and they all got on the bus and headed to Mingzhu City officially.

The two places were not far apart, so it took them just over two hours to reach their hotel.After everyone had lunch and repaired, they headed to the competition venue in the afternoon to prepare for the competition.

The moment they arrived outside the arena, the players of the Bayi team were stunned.

Unlike the previous scenes where there were not many fans at all when they participated in away games, the fans who came this time were almost crowded, blocking all the places outside the bus.

"Zhao Feiyang!"

"Bayi team!"

"come on!"

The fans were very loud, and most of them were wearing Zhao Feiyang's number and screaming wildly outside.
