The convulsion superstar of basketball

Chapter 347 346. The new season will be heroes against demons! !

After returning from the second quarter, the two sides replaced most of the bench lineups to compete, but compared to the depth of the lineup, the Lakers are obviously much worse than the Magic.

After all, with the Magic's several reinforcements during the offseason this season, the depth of the Magic's rotation at this time can be described as a bit scary.

Even "Mr. Billion" Lewis had to be put on the bench by Van Gundy.

In addition, this season the Magic also has White Chocolate Williams, Brandon Bass, Xiao Lizi and Gortat on the bench at the same time.

So in this case, when the Lakers' main players are off the court to rest, the Lakers' disadvantages on the court become visible to the naked eye.

You know, the only person the Lakers can count on on the bench is Odom.

But Odom is not the kind of offensive player who can crazily score points and chase points for the team as soon as he plays.

Because Odom is more like a magician among big players.

To put it simply, how effective Odom can play on the court depends not only on his personal strength, but also on the cooperation and understanding of his teammates on the court.

But it's a pity that except for Odom on the bench of the entire Lakers, everyone else seems to be unreliable.

Whether it's Jordan Farmar or Shannon Brown on the back line, or Walton Jr. and Powell on the front line, these players can still play a lot of ability when playing against some weak teams.

But when the Lakers face a Jumbo-level team like the Magic on the court, under this high-intensity confrontation, the personal strength they can display is completely compromised.

Among them, in addition to the fact that the Magic's defense is very good, a large part of the reason is psychological.

Because in the finals of last season, the Lakers had just been swept by the Magic, so in this case, role players will inevitably become hesitant to make shots.

It is impossible to treat the Magic as a team that can be slaughtered, so as to play more confidently on the court.

And when a player starts to lose confidence on the court, then his personal performance will naturally be unstable.

So at this time, when Kobe and Gasol had already left the court for a break at the same time, Zen Master Jackson still put Artest on the court.

In addition to Artest's physical strength is very abundant, very durable on the court.

More importantly, Jackson wants Artest and Odom to temporarily withstand the offensive pressure from the Magic.

Therefore, waiting for the return of Kobe and Gasol, don't be seized by the Magic during this period of time, and play in a wave.

But even so, as soon as the second quarter came back, the situation of the two teams on the court was reversed in an instant.

Because the Magic's bench lineup is too strong, in addition, there is also a very big difference in the psychology of the role players on both sides.

You know, as the Magic easily swept the Lakers [-]-[-] last season, this already gave the Magic a huge psychological advantage when facing the Lakers.

In the eyes of the Magic players, the Lakers are a defeated player, and they still don't have much ability to resist.

So at the beginning of the second quarter, even though the score between the two sides was not too high, Xiao Li still became very determined in his individual shots, completely without the kind of submissiveness he had in his rookie season.

It can be said that although Courtney Lee has not become as good as Su Jiu after a whole season of training, compared to most rookies in the same class, Xiao Lizi is already ahead of them.

And this lead is not just a personal honor in his career, but also an improvement in Xiao Lizi's personal strength.

As the advantage of the Magic team is completely visible to the naked eye, at this time the head coach of the Lakers, Zen Master Jackson, became a little numb off the court.

Because Jackson seems to have become a little used to losing to the Magic, and even in his heart, he already regards himself as inferior, and he doesn't put the team in a situation that can be compared with the Magic at all.

I have to say that although Zen Master Jackson's coaching career can be called perfect, he still feels powerless when facing this terrifying Magic team.

In the end, when Kobe and Gasol only took a few minutes off the court to rest, Jackson took advantage of a dead ball stage to bring them back on the court.

It seems that at this time, what Jackson can do is to increase the playing time of Kobe and Gasol as much as possible, so as to see if he can find a chance for the team in the future.

And when Stan Van Gundy saw the Lakers' substitution, he seemed unhurried and didn't take his main lineup immediately.

Because at this moment, the Magic's lineup on the court is still very competitive.

And with the team having a very large personal advantage, Van Gundy will naturally not rashly increase the playing time of the main players.

After all, the new season has just begun, and as the head coach of the team, Van Gundy will naturally not use the players' bodies for peace of mind.

What's more, Van Gundy is already ready for the new season to flow slowly, and intends to spend the journey of the regular season in a state as stable as possible.

Because the magic team's lineup is already very strong this season, and in this case, what the team is most afraid of is the inexplicable injury.

So for the Magic in the new season, the team's biggest opponent has never been the Celtics, Cavaliers, and Heat teams. Instead, the biggest opponent is an injury problem of the players themselves.

As the second quarter continued, the Magic gradually brought the main lineup back to the field. During this period of time, the Magic had always had the upper hand, and they couldn't see the meaning of driving high and low.

In the end, after halftime, the Magic team played away with:

53:42

Leading the Lakers by 11 points, the contest between the two sides ended in the first half.

After the end of the first half, more and more fans have begun to discover that the Lakers this season are not opponents of the Magic at all.

Or it can be said that from now on, these two teams are completely out of the same class.

Even if the fans do not have very rich theoretical knowledge, they also cannot see the so-called big data analysis.

But just looking at the two teams' matchup in the first half, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Lakers are obviously a little powerless.

It feels like being beaten non-stop. Even though Kobe's personal performance in the first half was already very good, it still couldn't make up the gap between the Lakers and the Magic.

In the second half, after a halftime break, the Lakers made some adjustments on the defensive end.

That is to change from the original man-to-man tactics to a small-scale zone defense.

Everyone on the field tried their best to shrink to the inside line, and it seemed that they didn't intend to give the Magic a chance to continue attacking the frame.

Obviously, Zen Master Jackson wants to make the end of the Magic team more outside, no longer like the first half, with some off-ball pick-and-rolls and personal breakthroughs, they can easily get to the basket.

However, during this process, Jackson's defense against Su Jiu remained unchanged.

That is to resolutely not allow Su Jiu to complete the shot comfortably outside the three-point line, and at the same time, not allow Su Jiu to easily break through to the inside.

To put it simply, I hope that Su Jiu's shots in the second half can make more jump shots from the mid-range position.

Again, that was Jackson's personal goal in changing the defensive formation to a zone defense when he returned in the second half.

Faced with this situation, although the Magic were in a state of fumbling in the first two offensive rounds, after getting familiar with the Magic's defensive formation, everyone began to see the tricks.

After all, the Magic has a lot of stars, and among them, there are not a few players who can have the ability to hold the ball independently.

So in this case, it is impossible for the Lakers to focus all their defense on one person on the court.

This situation also leads to the fact that the Magic can always find a chance to make a move on the field, or in other words, the defensive ability of the Lakers' lineup is not enough to completely lock the players on the field of the Magic.

After the end of the third quarter, relying on their excellent overall strength, instead of closing the score in the third quarter, the Lakers were widened by the Magic to 15 points.

I have to say that if the Lakers still have a glimmer of hope for a comeback during the intermission.

So after the end of the three quarters, the Lakers players have obviously begun to become desperate, because the Lakers can't see a sliver of hope in this omnipotent Magic team.

Under normal circumstances, when the Lakers encounter difficulties, they will concentrate more of the ball on Kobe.

This allows Kobe to use his personal ability to drive the offense of other players.

However, in this game, Kobe obviously encountered some troubles. Even though his personal performance can be said to be very good, he had already contributed 31 points at the end of the three quarters.

But even in this situation, the Lakers still didn't take advantage of the slightest advantage on the court.

Because Stan Van Gundy's defensive strategy in this game is very obvious, that is, I don't have players with particularly good defensive ability on the outside, so it is basically impossible to defend Kobe.

So this also caused Van Gundy to give up his personal restrictions on Kobe from the beginning.

To put it simply, it is to let Kobe keep playing singles alone, and then choke the performance of other players on the court.

And when Kobe can't drive his teammates by the way when he is super-superior personally, then it will be difficult for Kobe alone to compete with the entire Magic.

You know, this Magic team is not the Raptors team that Kobe scored 81 points in a single game back then, so if Kobe wants to achieve a true one-on-five, it is obviously a bit of a dream.

In the fourth quarter, as the Lakers showed no sign of shrinking the score at all, there was even a vague tendency to be stretched by the Magic again.

In this case, Zen master Jackson planned to give up treatment early. With more than 7 minutes before the end of the game, Jackson had already replaced the substitute lineup and announced in advance that the game had entered garbage time.

After all, the new season has just started, Jackson has absolutely no reason to fight head-on with the Magic, let alone allow Kobe and Gasol to break through to 40 minutes or more.

Because the point difference is infinitely close to 20 points, even if the playing time of Kobe and Gasol is continuously increased, Jackson does not think that the team can still catch up with the score.

So in this case, it is better to announce in advance that the game will enter garbage time, and then the two sides will train in the final stage to avoid some meaningless injuries to the main players.

Seeing the substitution adjustments on the Lakers side, Stan Van Gundy on the sidelines also called a timeout immediately, and then when the players were off the court, he high-fived the players one by one to celebrate the victory of the game in advance.

In the end, after the end of the game, the Magic team played away with:

109:86

23 points beat the Los Angeles Lakers. In the first game of the NBA opener, they played the team's personal prestige in the new season.

After the game ended, the fans who were watching the game on the Internet at this moment were completely blown away.

Although these people have expected it, the Lakers may have a very high chance of losing.

But no one thought that the Lakers would lose to the Magic by 23 points in the NBA opener! !

And this is when the game entered garbage time very early.

Otherwise, if the game continues at a normal pace, the Lakers are likely to lose 30 points.

You know, the Lakers were able to rush out of the West last season and complete the rendezvous with the Magic in the Finals.

Even if it weren't for "Little Shark" Odom's sudden infighting with Kobe, the Lakers are likely to create more suspense in that round of the series.

But with the start of the new season, the Lakers were completely suppressed by the Magic in the opening game.

Judging from the process of the game, not only did the Lakers have no power to fight back, they didn't even have any way to reduce the beating.

It has to be said that this result obviously surprised many fans, and it even shocked many fans about the strength of the Magic this season.

Even at this moment, many fans have already asked questions on the Internet, that is, which team in the league in the new season can stop the pace of the Magic? ? !

In this game, Howard, who just won the MVP in last year's finals, can be said to be showing off his power.

Facing Thomas, who is only 32 meters tall and is already [-] years old, Howard controlled both offensive and defensive rebounds throughout the game.

Although in the first half, Howard didn't take too many shots, but in the third quarter, Howard made Thomas completely unable to find Northwest in a single quarter.

全场比赛，霍华德一共是登场了32分钟，个人在进攻端14投10中，罚球8中4，高效贡献出了24分21篮板以及2次封盖的数据。

Among them, in the third quarter, Howard scored 13 points and 7 rebounds in a single quarter, which was even better than Thomas' contribution of 4 points and 8 rebounds in the entire game.

In addition to Howard, Su Jiu, who was highly expected last season and successfully won the best rookie, also performed well.

全场比赛，苏久一共就只登场了31分钟，其中个人15投8中，三分线外5中3，罚球4中3，最终斩获下了22分6篮板以及6次助攻的数据。

Perfect used personal actions to silently fight back all kinds of rumors from the outside world.

除此之外，在本赛季刚刚加盟魔术队的文斯卡特则是贡献出了11分4篮板5次助攻，马里昂7分8篮板2抢断1封盖，白巧克力5分2篮板5助攻，布兰登巴斯9分4篮板，莱昂安德森6分1篮板1助攻。

As for the team's championship heroes last season, Iverson, Lewis, and Xiao Li also had good personal performances.

It can be said that although this Magic team has not run into the best state of the season, judging from the performance in the NBA opener, this Magic team has already shown unparalleled dominance at this time.

As for the external reviews, it also became a bit confusing after this game.

From the original discussion of what percentage chance the Magic will be able to defend their title in the new season, it is now a matter of discussing which team can stop the Magic in the new season.

It has to be said that although the new season has just begun, in the eyes of many fans, this season is not so much a competition of heroes, but a fight against evil! ! ! !
