I am so Accurate

“I don’t know if I can win the championship in this life.”

At the end of the sentence, Yao Ming looked at Sun Hao and said.

After saying this, he wanted to say something else, but he hesitated, and in the end it just turned into a forced smile.

Sun Hao didn't ask any further questions.

Yao Ming is no longer the young boy he was when he first entered the league.

If Yao Ming really wants to do something, or if there is anything that really needs to be discussed with him, he will naturally say it at that time.

The two of them chatted about some happy things until the end, and also talked about celebrating the New Year together.

Speaking of which, they have played in the NBA for so many years, but they have not spent the Spring Festival together yet. They have to spend one together this year.

The next day, the game between the Lakers and Wizards was held at the Verizon Center, home of the Wizards.

The attendance at the venue was full, and reporters gathered on the sidelines.

Although Yao Ming will miss this game due to injury, the Lakers have just suffered a five-game losing streak.

This can be regarded as a serious collision between two weak teams.

But none of this actually matters, because tonight is Sun Hao's first show since returning to the Lakers!

This alone is more interesting than anything else.

As one of the owners of the Wizards, Jordan naturally appeared at the scene.

In addition to him, league president Stern and many famous players and celebrities were present.

This game is no longer just a game.

Moreover, at least one-third of the arena was filled with Lakers fans who came here to watch Sun Hao's first show, and more than half of them were still wearing Sun Hao's No. 95 jersey, which looked like half of the Lakers' home court.

This kind of scene is unprecedented and probably unprecedented.

Sun Hao also waved after seeing it.

At this time, I have to mention a hidden mission from before.

After winning the sixth championship of his career with the Warriors last season, Sun Hao completed a hidden mission that lasted for eight years.

"The God of Basketball": Won 6 NBA championships.

That is, after completing that task, he got a badge called [God of Basketball].

That's an achievement badge.

The description of the badge is as follows: increase the influence of Yi Yi Yuan on the NBA, improve the favorability of fans, and increase more fanatical fans.

This doesn't seem to have much effect. After all, Sun Hao's influence is already the largest in history.

But in fact, Sun Hao still played a big role when he returned to Los Angeles this time.

Sun Hao's charisma is one thing, but no matter how great his charisma is, there will inevitably be some sunspots.

So this time Sun Hao's return to Los Angeles went so smoothly and caused such a big response, including the fanatical scene in front of him, partly because of the effect of the badge.

After greeting the fans, Sun Hao then went into the warm-up.

Although he did not play many games in the system, he often simulated games.

For example, tonight's game against the Wizards, he has already gone through it in the system.

However, the system is like a virtual space, which is somewhat different from reality.

When he was just warming up, his hands seemed a bit cold in his first few shots.

But soon he got into the feeling and started hitting consecutive shots.

This also made the Lakers fans at the scene excited.

Although Sun Hao has won two consecutive MVP awards in the past two years, there is nothing surprising about his performance.

But after all, Sun Hao was a Warriors player before. Now that he has become his own player again, the feeling is completely different.

When the warm-up was over, the scene entered the opening ceremony, and the starters from both sides started to make their way out one after another.

For the Wizards, Nelson, Matthews, Budinger, Boozer, Ian Mahinmi.

Yao Ming's current state of mind may be understood from the changes in the starting lineup.

Two years ago, the Wizards were still a Big Three lineup with Finals-level strength.

But now, the talent of this lineup feels like it has fallen into the Mariana Trench.

Among superstars, only one with a temper like Yao Ming can hold back his temper.

Although judging from the exchange last night, Yao Ming's disappointment can also be seen.

For the Lakers, Knight, Sun Hao, Battier, Millsap, Hibbert.

Although on paper, the Lakers are not much better...

But Sun Hao is enough!

After the opening ceremony, the coaches on both sides were making final tactical arrangements.

Harris didn't say much, and his expression was a bit serious.

After a five-game losing streak at the start of the season, Lakers fans, in addition to looking forward to Sun Hao's comeback, only wanted to denounce the team's new head coach.

Many fans have expressed their hope that the management will fire Harris and bring back Phil Jackson.

Being the head coach of a wealthy club brings great exposure, but the pressure is also huge.

Although Harris has been in the NBA for many years, he has never been a head coach before, so this reaction is normal.

Sun Hao noticed this, patted Harris on the shoulder before going on the field, and then gave him a reassuring look.

Harris forced a smile after seeing it, and then nodded.

Sun Hao's comeback was the biggest reassurance for him.

The starters from both sides came on stage one after another. Before Sun Hao came on the court, he smiled and pointed at Yao Ming who was sitting on the bench opposite.

He has experienced a lot of watching his teammates get beaten off the court during this time.

It's Yao Ming's turn to experience this feeling.

Of course, Yao Ming didn't know what Sun Hao was thinking. After all, what "bad intentions" could a good partner of the national team have?

He smiled and extended his hand in response to Sun Hao. This scene seemed a bit cute.

After saying hello, Sun Hao then turned back and focused his attention on the court.

In the first game back for the Lakers, and with the team losing five games in a row, he must go all out to regain the confidence of the team and Lakers fans.

When the referee's whistle sounded, Hibbert moved the ball back to the Lakers half.

Knight advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, turned around and gave the ball to Sun Hao.

Knight's dual quotient is still very high. In the previous few games, he averaged 14+ points per game, showing good scoring ability.

But as soon as Sun Hao came back, he sent the ball over at the beginning.

And after passing the ball, he signaled the players on both sides to pull away while running away.

This is another accomplished person who is familiar with many books such as "Emotional Intelligence" and "Position".

At this time, it was Matthews who guarded Sun Hao.

Popovich and the others are all over the league as head coaches, and Sun Hao is the younger brother all over the league.

Matthews looked at Sun Hao with a guilty look, but he was not timid.

He felt guilty because as his former younger brother, he knew Sun Hao's strength very well.

He is not timid because, after all, they have played together and faced each other last season. He still knows enough about Sun Hao, and the match-up effect is also good.

And in addition to defense skills and abilities, there is another equally important thing: targeting.

In other words, Sun Hao didn't start out as a defender. For someone like Matthews, watching game videos and catching the opponent's offensive methods, habits, and even rhythm are all basic operations.

So Matthews' state at this time is very real.

Then, Sun Hao suddenly launched a breakthrough without any warning.

Matthews followed suit the first time.

But before he could stand upright, Sun Hao made an emergency stop and lowered his center of gravity. The amplitude was large and the center of gravity was low.

This time Matthews obviously couldn't keep up, and Sun Hao started to speed up the second time when he turned around, not even leaving him a chance to foul.

Mahinmi inside saw it and turned around to help defend.

Van Gundy on the Wizards knew Sun Hao's passing ability and shouted for the weak-side players to help defend at the basket.

But what surprised Van Gundy was that Sun Hao did not choose to pass the ball!

He faced Mahinmi up and made a layup with an underhand after sideways dodge.

This dodge was very rhythmic, and Mahinmi immediately lost his defensive direction.

"boom!"

The ball hit the backboard and bounced into the net.

Sun Hao passed two people in a row to help the Lakers open the scoring!

The Lakers fans at the scene cheered excitedly.

Sun Hao showed a strong desire to score from the beginning tonight!

And this choice is indeed exciting. After all, the Lakers currently lack talent and Carter is injured again. Who will score if Sun Hao doesn't score!

In the Wizards' offense, Boozer plays in the low post.

Without Yao Ming, Boozer has naturally become the core of the Wizards' offense.

Millsap is active defensively, but his height is a flaw. In addition, Boozer has a long wingspan and likes to turn around and lean back in his play style.

This time he really couldn't reach it.

Historically, Boozer and Deron were strong at the peak of the "New Utah Twins" formed by the Jazz, and Boozer played an indispensable role as one of the two.

Knight continued to be the tool man, taking the ball to the frontcourt and giving it to Sun Hao.

The Wizards still use Matthews for single defense.

Last year, the Wizards renewed Matthews' contract with a large contract, and the coaching staff still has full confidence in Matthews' defensive ability.

Matthews also showed his defensive skills with this goal, following Sun Hao's breakthrough.

It can be seen from his eyes that he is very confident in defense.

But when he got to the basket and was about to challenge Sun Hao for a layup, his eyes suddenly changed from confidence to surprise.

Because Sun Hao directly pushed him out of the baseline with a hard confrontation.

"Bang!"

Sun Hao knocked the ball away and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand!

At this moment, the Verizon Center Arena was filled with excited shouts from Lakers fans.

If Sun Hao showed his outstanding skills in the previous ball, then this ball reflects Sun Hao's super personal confrontation ability!

When Matthews looked at Sun Hao again, his eyes were already a little helpless.

Because he discovered something, Sun Hao played completely different tonight than when he defended last season.

It's not a technical difference, it's an aggressiveness difference.

It's like Sun Hao played with his back last season.

His feeling is right!

The Warriors' young players developed well last season, and Sun Hao was not needed most of the time.

But tonight Sun Hao fully exerted his strength, and the "defensive experience" accumulated by Matthews was naturally useless.

In fact, Sun Hao dunked the ball, and the Lakers bench was already in a state of excitement.

After five consecutive losses at the beginning, the Lakers' morale was inevitably low, and more importantly, they had no backbone. Even if Carter was not injured, he would not be able to play that role.

But now Sun Hao's opening performance has regained all their lost morale in one go!

With Sun Hao, the first person in history, as the boss, no low point is considered a low point!

Boozer continued to hold the ball in isolation against Millsap, and this time he turned around and walked to the basket.

Hibbert saw it and came over to help defend.

Boozer passed the ball directly to Mahinmi on the other side.

As an insider who averaged 3+ per game at his peak, Boozer's passing ability and passing awareness are both top-notch.

Hibbert is 2.18 meters tall, not much shorter than Yao Ming, but his movement speed and reaction speed are much slower than Yao Ming.

By the time he turned around, Mahinmi had already taken the ball and dunked it with both hands.

This dunk also sent the Verizon Center into a boil.

Of course, this time it was the Wizards fans who cheered.

Two thirds of the home team fans vs one third of the visiting team fans.

Tonight's game has the feel of NCAA March Madness.

But before the excitement of the Wizards fans at the scene could get over, Sun Hao turned around and made a trademark breakthrough, pulled back for a three-pointer, and put the ball into the basket again!

4 to 7!

Sun Hao made 3 of 3 shots in the opening game and scored 7 points in a row!

Lakers lack talent? It doesn't matter!

Lakers in bad shape? does not matter!

As long as Sun Hao is there!

The camera then showed Yao Ming on the sidelines. Yao Ming pouted and shook his head.

Sun Hao finally experienced the feeling of powerlessness that he had experienced in the previous games.

And that taste lasts for the entire show.

Although the Lakers' defense is not good, the Wizards can barely perform offensively with Boozer.

But on the defensive end, they had nothing to do with Sun Hao.

Here we need to talk about Boozer's technical characteristics. Because Boozer is a heavy inside player and slow to move laterally, he is a typical player who focuses on offense and neglects defense.

This is also a key reason for the Wizards' poor record in the past two years.

Yao Ming wiped too many butts for his inside partner.

After Yao Ming's injury, the Wizards' interior defense issues were put under a magnifying glass.

Matthews couldn't stop Sun Hao from moving in, and the inside players couldn't stop him.

What the fans saw on the court was basically that as long as Sun Hao got the ball, he would basically score.

And when the Wizards started double-teaming, Sun Hao also started to use passes to drive his teammates to score.

What difference can a player bring to a team?

Sun Hao gave the best answer to this question tonight.

Then, the fans were surprised to find that this group of Lakers players were actually very good!

Knight, who originally didn't shoot, turned out to be so good at cutting;

Battier, who originally had no sense of presence on the offensive end, actually shot the three-pointer from the corner so accurately;

Crawford, who used to be good at all kinds of ironwork, turned out to be so cool when he showed off his dribbling!

Players actually have their own pros and cons. Playing next to different people will reflect completely different values.

Especially when the core player has a good sense of sharing the ball.

Referring to James Harden who entered his prime in history, the role players who played beside him were always able to bring out their own strengths.

Peak Sun Hao is a level better than peak Harden.

So it's normal for fans to feel this way.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Wizards 97-83 on the road and ushered in their first victory of the season.

Sun Hao handed over a data sheet of 42 points, 7 rebounds and 11 assists in his first game back with the Lakers!

Of the total score of 97 points, 64 points are related to Sun Hao.

The former "King of Los Angeles" is back!
