NBA: The King of Basketball, the more haters I have, the stronger I become!

According to the commentators at the scene.

Tyreke Evans from the University of Memphis is definitely a top-five pick in this year's draft.

He possesses exceptional physical talent, along with a knack for elusive and unpredictable support tactics.

If it weren't for the fact that they encountered Stephen Curry and Ye Chu's Davidson College in the NCAA finals...

There is every reason to believe that Evans can lead the University of Memphis to its first championship trophy in team history!

After arriving in the NBA

While Tyreke Evans may lack three-point shooting ability, he is equally adept at driving to the basket and mid-range jump shots.

While helping the team achieve a winning start to the season, Evans also gradually adapted to the pace of the NBA.

You have to know that it was in that year.

The Rookie of the Year award didn't go to Blake Griffin or James Harden, but to Tyreke Evans!

"Today, we can finally witness a head-to-head confrontation between two new generation forwards!"

When Tyreke Evans was mentioned, the commentator inevitably brought up Ye Chu again: "If nothing unexpected happens, their matchup will start from the very first second of the game!"

Ye Chu is the starting small forward for the Los Angeles Clippers.

Tyreke Evans is also the Sacramento Kings' starting small forward!

The two strongest contenders for the Rookie of the Year award from the Class of 09 will face off in their second professional game.

The rivalry between the University of Memphis and Davidson College in the NCAA tournament will continue today!

"To be honest, Ye Chu is undoubtedly the most talented player, while Stephen Curry is equally unsettling."

In a pre-match interview, Tyreke Evans was quite frank: "I'm also looking forward to facing them again, but the match isn't just a contest between two people!"

Tyreke Evans' meaning is simple:

I don't have any advantage over Ye Chu in any aspect.

He readily admitted to this.

But basketball is not a one-man game.

The Sacramento Kings have a much better roster than the Los Angeles Clippers.

Apart from Evans.

The Kings' roster also includes the infamous "Crooked-Handle Laser Gun," Kevin Martin!

This guy with the crooked handle laser gun could score an average of 25.6 points per game last season, ranking sixth in the entire league!

His average points per game even surpassed those of many superstars in the league.

In addition to Kevin Martin, the Kings also have Drew Gooden anchoring their frontcourt!

This 2.14-meter-tall interior beast possesses extremely strong rebounding control and is also quite fierce in the paint.

Even when facing some of the league's top interior players, Drew Gooden was not afraid and fought them to the death!

In addition to these two All-Star caliber players, the Sacramento Kings also have Carl Landry, Beno Udrih, Jason Thompson, Omri Casspi, and Spencer Hawes, all of whom average more than ten points per game.

Basketball is a five-player sport.

Looking at the team's roster alone, Tyreke Evans doesn't think he'll lose!

Similarly, the difference in roster strength between the two teams was also a key point of discussion among the commentators.

This is also a core issue that the Los Angeles Clippers' management is concerned about.

The combination of Kevin Love, Stephen Curry, and Ye Chu is indeed something the Clippers can look forward to.

However, relying solely on these three young players, they might be able to carve out a niche for themselves in the regular season, a format that relies on accumulating wins.

Once the playoffs arrive and player depth becomes crucial, the Clippers' current roster will be completely inadequate.

Team special advisor Jerry West also noticed the problem.

But he still wanted to see just how far the Davidson duo could lead the current Los Angeles Clippers.

If the team's performance this season exceeds expectations.

Jerry West would not mind making sweeping reforms, even if it means spending future draft picks, to bring in an All-Star.

His target had long been Yao Ming, the star player of the Houston Rockets.

Two major players, one domestic and one international, are joining forces?

That seems like a good thing!

The pre-match warm-up ended quickly, and the starting players from both teams took to the field!

Sacramento Kings' starting lineup:

Beno Udrih, Kevin Martin, Tyreke Evans, Carl Landry, and Drew Gooden!

The Los Angeles Clippers' starting lineup is:

Stephen Curry, Andre Iguodala, Ye Chu, Kevin Love, and Chris Kaman!

"Ye Chu!"

"Stephen!"

"Ye Chu!"

"Stephen!"

When Ye Chu and Curry finally stepped onto the court, the entire Staples Center erupted in enthusiastic cheers.

Just as the two commentators said before the match.

Most of the Clippers fans at the scene came for the Davidson duo!

If it weren't for those two, who would want to watch a Clippers game?

Isn't the Los Angeles Lakers' game more appealing now?

Amid cheers from the fans, the centers of both teams stepped up to the center line!

The referee tossed the ball high into the air!

Guden won the jump ball against Kaman, giving the visiting Sacramento Kings possession for the first attack of the game.

Udrih slowly dribbled the ball past midfield, and after several passes, he found Kevin Martin, who was back to the basket and calling for the ball at the horns!

"Oh!"

With the basketball in hand, Martin faced Iguodala's defense, skillfully backed down the defender, then quickly turned and stopped, making a mid-range jump shot for two points!

"He can't defend against me at all!"

After scoring the opening goal from open play, Martin seemed a little excited, pointing towards Ye Chu and Stephen respectively, muttering to himself, "You, and you, I'll beat you to a pulp tonight!"

have to say

With an average of top-six points per game in the league last season, Kevin Martin certainly has the right to be arrogant.

But, you'd better take a good look at yourself before you act arrogantly!

Los Angeles Clippers offense

Curry quickly dribbled the ball across half-court and decisively passed it to Ye Chu, who was stretching out his hand to call for the ball on the left side of the three-point line.

Evans, who is responsible for his defensive assignment, is ready.

The two commentators on the sidelines also began to emphasize the head-to-head confrontation between the two young men.

However, before Evans could make a move, another Clippers player appeared next to him.

"Andre Iguodala sets a screen, is Ye Chu choosing to avoid Evans?"

The commentator on the sidelines paused for a moment, then said, "But after the pick-and-roll, Kevin Martin was the one who ended up in front of him!"

"Perhaps he wasn't trying to avoid Evans' defense!"

Another commentator seemed to have figured it out: "He's specifically targeting Kevin Martin!"

Just after Martin made his first offensive play and uttered some harsh words to the Davidson duo.

As the new core of the Los Angeles Clippers, Ye Chu stepped forward to single out Martin!

Didn't you make some harsh remarks?

Then I'll put you on the offensive end list!

What is arrogance?

That's truly outrageous!
