The competition for the number one in the Eastern Conference naturally also obtained the qualification to be a national broadcast, and it was still espn. However, this time the commentary was replaced by a historical player and Rachel partner. McGrady, who was the four major points guards, returned to the beginning of his dream to perform his first commentary.

ESPN's change is not just to join a popular female anchor like Rachel, but they have also begun to make more big-name retired players like TNT to become commentators. ESPN was not without, such as Bill Walton and Dominic Wiskins, but they are old and many new fans have not watched their games.

But McGrady is different. Carter, among the four major points guards, has not retired, and the one with the most honors and the most fans left the league last season. Although McGrady left the peak very early due to injury, his short peak left a profound impact on people, two scoring champions and the best first team.

"Tracey, how does it feel to go back to Toronto?" Rachel asked with a smile. Without the two big guys Mark Jackson and Van Gundy Jr., she partnered with a big player who made her debut, but she was not a little nervous.

"Great! This is where my basketball career begins and it is also the starting point for another career. I will always be grateful to this city."

"What about Lin? As we all know, during the Rockets, he also partnered with a super center Yao from China. Who do you think would be a better center?"

McGrady frowned, but immediately gave his answer: "There is no doubt that Yao is definitely a better player now. He was definitely the No. 1 center in the league at his peak. At that time, the competition in the inside line was far more intense than now, but Lin's defense was better than Yao. Yao's defensive deterrence is only in the penalty area, while Lin's defensive deterrence is in the whole half."

Obviously, McGrady thinks his partner is better, but Lin's defense is better. Rachel continued to ask: "What about the offense? Lin averages 247 points per game, and Yao's highest career average is probably the average score."

"Hey! Lin is different from Yao. Yao's pass is definitely outstanding among the center. In 2009, the Rockets eliminated the Trail Blazers and fought with the Lakers for 7 games. I watched the game that year in a suit. I have to say that his help to his teammates is better than Lin."

Before the two had time to continue to talk in depth, the battle for the number one in the Eastern Conference had already begun. There was no surprise in the Raptors' starting lineup. The two brothers Lowry and DeRozan were the backcourt, and Carol was the partner of this year's No. 27 rookie Siakam, and the center was still Valanciulos.

The Pacers' side has not changed, Hill and Gordon are in the backcourt, George's small forward, Turner power forward, and Lin Sen's center.

For these two teams, this is not just a competition for the number one in the Eastern Conference. In last year's playoffs, the Pacers lost to the Raptors. After seven games, they were defeated because of the overall lineup gap. But similarly, the Raptors also have enemies in the Pacers. Lin Sen's outstanding performance in the Eastern Conference Finals last year prevented them from completing their breakthrough for the team.

The two teams started to have a lot of gunpowder in the first round. Lin Sen jumped steadily to the basketball on the Pacers, and the Pacers pushed forward as a whole. The first ball was given to George. As soon as he received the ball, Carol stuck it up aggressively, giving George no room to take action.

After the leg injury, George was not a player with fast moving speed. When facing such a defense, he naturally did not get rid of it immediately without being prepared.

The basketball was passed back to Hill to reorganize. Similarly, Lowry's defense was more aggressive. He was not tall and his height was 185, which was short even among the point guards. However, unlike his height, he was very strong, otherwise he would not have won the title of Little Cannon.

At the moment Hill received the ball, he rushed up directly. While his body was stuck in the main shift, he clicked the ball in Hill's hand with his right hand and completed the steal. Lowry used his physical pressure to complete a beautiful steal in the first round, and then quickly caught up with the basketball layup and gave the Pacers a warning to the away game.

McMillan frowned when he saw this situation off the court. Lowry's steal was in the category of whether he could blow or not. The referee's failure to call means that the overall penalty for this game will be looser tonight.

The Pacers were beaten into a fast attack and made a comeback. Now they have a little bit of a strong team style. Faced with such a situation, they are not panicked at all.

After halftime, the basketball was directly given to Lin Sen. Compared to facing Valanciolos in the Eastern Conference Final, Lin Sen could only rely on the help of his teammates to get an opportunity to attack. Now Lin Sen is the opportunity to catch the ball.

The face frame at the free throw line was received, which gave Lin Sen a relaxed opportunity to have three threats. In this position, Lin Sen's three threats were really threatening, and his ability to pull mid-range shots has been confirmed. As soon as he raised his hand, Valanciulos stepped forward at a slow pace.

Lin Sen easily crossed the defense directly, but behind this defense, there was another player who rushed over to make up for the defense. Siakam, a young No. 27 pick from Africa, averaged less than 5 points per game and hit 45, occupied the position of the Raptors power forward. This is nothing more than his faster speed and defensive awareness compared to the traditional No. 4 position.

But Siakam is too thin, with a weight of 206, 104kg. This assisting position is indeed in place, but it may be a bit reliable to stop the situation. Facing Lin Sen, who has grown a lot of fat, this is undoubtedly the background board given to him!

Lin Sen's left arm directly resisted Siakam's chest, then held the ball with one hand in his right hand, directly staged a hard-slashing Huashan version of the buckle, which also caused Siakam to foul, 21!

"Wow! Crazy dunks, Lin's breakthrough and this dunk are so beautiful, and the speed is very fast. If this ball pulls Lin's position a little further outside the three-point line, I feel like I'm watching me play." McGrady began to talk in a lot of sluts. Like O'Neal and Barkley, these retired players always like to dream back to the peak when they come to understand.

"Pascal's assisting defense was also fouled, which is a bit unreasonable!" Rachel shook her head!
Chapter completed!
