Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 802: [Strength increased, popularity dropped]

In December, the NBA arranged three gimmicks for Christmas.

Spurs VS Cavaliers, GDP combined against James and Boozer; Celtics VS Magic, both teams are upstarts this year, ranking in the top two in the east; the highlight is the Suns away against the Lakers, the defending champion and the big dark horse Contest.

President David Stern chose to continue to support them after the Lakers rebuilt, and the number of live broadcasts in the United States is higher than that of the Warriors joined by Bryant.

It is worth mentioning that Bryant missed this year's Christmas War, and his grievances with O'Neill have been settled. O'Neill's data was good after being traded to the Pacers but could not enter the playoffs. The Pacers vs. Warriors could not attract fans.

As for the Warriors VS Lakers, the league does not dare to arrange this. If Kobe's appearance is boasted by Los Angeles fans, the game will be full of gunpowder. Christmas should not be this atmosphere.

In the summer, many Kobe Bryant said that Los Angeles is inseparable from Kobe. The ratings and attention are high because of Kobe. This year, these people have been severely hit. The NBA put it bluntly, it is the hero of success or failure, winning is the key, and other factors are false.

In Guo Xu's previous life, even if Bryant announced his retirement, his farewell tour could not save the bottom-ranked Lakers' ratings. That season, the Lakers' ratings were the lowest in the team's history, down 23% from the previous year.

Big cities are more likely to get more attention, and the low-key Joe Johnson arrived in Los Angeles, and his popularity has started to increase.

Before the start of the game, the media focused on the promotion of "Jason Guo VS Joe Johnson", "Whether the Suns younger brother can challenge the big brother again." The two sides contested the Lakers for the first time, and the record gap was not large.

The Suns are currently second in the West with 19 wins and 8 losses, the Spurs are 20 wins and 7 losses, and the Lakers are 18 wins and 9 losses, ranking third in the West.

After training, Guo Xu gave an interview and spoke highly of the opponent Lakers. "I was surprised that they played this season. After all, there is a superstar missing from the team."

The reporter asked: "What do you think is the main reason why the Lakers are strong?"

"The balance between offense and defense and teamwork, the Lakers players are very selfless, whoever has the opportunity to shoot more, this style of play is difficult to defend, after all, all teams have defensive weaknesses."

The reporter asked: "How do you evaluate Kobe's performance in the Warriors?"

Guo Xu smiled: "I don't comment."

After Odom's comeback, the Lakers have become very strong. Although there is no super scorer, each offense is a little more blooming.

Outside core Joe Johnson averaged 19.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5 assists in 38 minutes per game, shooting 45.8% from the field and 38.1% from the field. In terms of personal ability, Joe Johnson certainly cannot compare with Kobe. His advantage is that he never messes up. The style of selfless shots is less, and he only averages 16.3 shots per game.

Joe Johnson's style will never make his teammates hate. When Artest and Ellis are messing up with iron, he will return to the faceless expression and will not blame his teammates. Teammates throw in, and he will clap his face expressionlessly. The score stalemate reached the end, he also dared to take responsibility for singles, the shooting rate is not low.

Who would hate such people? Even if he is very introverted, even if he cherishes words like gold, his teammates think he is cool. Artest likes to find singles to practice defense when he is okay. The first thing he won at the press conference was that Quaker Johnson played well.

"We are like brothers. It's great that he can join the Lakers."

Joe Johnson will also praise Artest, saying he is the best defensive player. The atmosphere in the Lakers' locker room has improved, because no one in the team regards himself as an uncle and does not compete for the boss.

They share the ball selflessly, the data gap is not big, only Joe Johnson and Odom, who are playing more than 35 minutes per game, are very efficient.

Artest is averaging 15.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3 assists per game. He is the team's second scorer and can play both ends.

Ellis averaged 15.2 points and 3.5 assists per game. He broke through sharply and could score on his own or score the ball for his teammates.

Bogut averaged 34.3 minutes per game, shots increased to 11.7, 6 shots, 51.1% shooting, 63.3% free throws, averaging 14.8 points 10.3 rebounds 2.6 assists 1.7 blocks.

Odom played for 36.8 minutes, averaging 14 points, 10 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1 steals and 1 block. His shooting percentage was 52.5%.

The others didn't score in double figures, but two people scored around 10 points, Battier and Fisher.

The Lakers have a good offense and stronger defense. Few teams can hit the Lakers in the restricted area, and they have Yao Ming's Rockets a little advantage, which makes Bogut a single defense.

The Lakers ranked first in the wing defensive ability in the league, met with strong Pierce, James, Anthony and other stars Artest, anti-Kobe, Carter and other stars Battier. Joe Johnson and Barnes' defensive styles are similar to these two experts, only slightly weaker.

The Lakers' flank can handle a variety of players. Battier and Artest can play together when playing small ball tactics. Battier's defense against Nowitzki and Marion's effect is very good, Artest's strength and weight can resist part of the blue-collar power forward.

Outside Ellis and Fisher have complementary styles, one is good at holding the ball and one is good at catching and shooting three-pointers. Farmar also has a chance to show, he is good at everything, nothing is fine.

After there are no big-name stars, "Jen Master" Phil Jackson no longer needs to spend energy to deal with the relationship between players, arrange tactics to be flexible and changeable, and aim at the opponent's defensive weaknesses.

When the opponent's outside speed is slow, such as against the Nets, Jackson will make Ellis the main shooting guard for a long time, and the outside will send a double guard combination to defeat the opponent in a wave.

The Lakers play well, but some people are depressed, such as the Chinese player Sun Yue. He was not signed immediately after being selected by the Lakers in the second round, and he continued to play for the American ABA League in the Olympic team this season. It is not that the Lakers do not want Sun Yue, but that the Lakers and Ao Shen did not negotiate specific details of the cooperation.

The Ao Shen team is a magical existence. Since being banned by the CBA in 2005, Ao Shen has lived a life full of entertainment. Due to the rich wealth of the team owner, there are many talents in the team, such as Sun Yue, Zhang Songtao, Huo Nan, and Wu Guanxi who was selected to the U19 National Youth Team. It is difficult for players to cancel the super long contract with Ao Shen, and have to pay a huge penalty. Without leaving, they can only play exhibition games.

What Sun Yue and Ao Shen signed was a deed of sale, and the details of the contract were different. Some people said it was 20 years, some people said it was 25 years, and some people said it was a lifetime contract. In short, the player is the owner's private property in Ao Shen, this place is more like a triad than a basketball team.

Sun Yue wants to escape, but the reality has ruthlessly defeated his dream. From the current situation, the Lakers may not be able to sign with him next season. Existing outside players perform very well ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The good result is probably that the Lakers traded his signing rights to join other teams.

The more depressing person was Kobe, who was traded. When he left the Lakers, he rose strongly. The Warriors he joined were half dead outside the playoffs. Seeing his popularity drop this season, he was going to be crazy.

Fans who helped Kobe speak less because he scolded the boss and the manager in the summer and demanded that the Lakers trade him out. It seems that he has no nostalgia for the Los Angeles fans who support him.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Kobe Bryant's opener this season also attracted the fans of the audience, but he performed very well, and eventually turned into a MVP call. Now Kobe ca n’t change the Lakers fans ’ideas, and it ’s useless to play well, because he left the Lakers and became the enemy of the same district.

Contrary to the strength of the Lakers, Bryant caused controversy in the Warriors ... ()
