pregame

adj.比赛前的

He took the mic for pregame introductions, bestowing nicknames upon his teammates. 他在比赛前的介绍中，拿起话筒给队友起外号。

Unlike Game 2, when so much of the pregame attention was on Pierce's sprained knee, the chatter before tipoff included uneasy discussions about past officiating. 不像第二场比赛前的关注都放在皮尔斯的膝伤上，在赛前大家都在讨论过去裁判的判罚。
