Super Small Forward

　　 The Lakers and Warriors game will start at Staples Center.

This game once again attracted wide-ranging attention.

No. 1 in the Western Conference or even No. 1 in the league. When the Lakers are now 25 wins and 2 losses, it seems that they cannot be shaken for the time being.

But it's not impossible. Just like the Pacers last season, it seems that they are about to break the Bulls' 72 wins record. Who knows the sudden collapse after the All-Star.

Therefore, there are so few teams in the West that are likely to counterattack the No. 1 team are very important.

These teams are the Thunder, Rockets, Warriors, Trailblazers, Grizzlies, and Clippers. The Grizzlies are the first to fall behind. The players are too old to support the high-intensity defensive counterattack for long.

The Blazers and the Clippers have poor substitutes. The Blazers have always had poor substitutes, and the Clippers seem to have pretty good substitutes, but I don’t know why they played badly when they got to the Clippers. Some fans speculated that it might be the night scene of Los Angeles. It's so fascinating that it sucked all the energy of the Clippers' bench.

The rest are the Thunder, the Rockets, and the Warriors. The three teams' records are not far apart. The Warriors and the Thunder were originally a little bit higher than the Rockets, but now the Thunder have lost their three-game losing streak to sixth. The Rockets were originally less than the Warriors. With two victories, the Warriors suddenly became the only team in the West besides the Lakers that can challenge the Lakers.

Therefore, everyone in this game between the Lakers and the Warriors wants to see if any strong team can beat the Lakers.

Although the Lakers have lost to the Wizards and Pacers before, the fans don’t care about the Lakers losing to those teams, because it is impossible for the two teams to meet in the playoffs, and the two teams will meet in the regular season. Only between opponents in the playoffs has reference value.

For many reasons, this year's Warriors are more optimistic than the Warriors team that Liu Ren remembered that rose in the 14-15 season, because there has been a precedent for the Lakers' success last season, and the Warriors have gradually established themselves in the West. After the second, fans have reason to believe that the Warriors are the seed team in the Western Conference semifinals and even the Western Conference finals.

Therefore, the last time the Lakers and Warriors played in 2014 has attracted much attention, and the last time the two teams played this season will have to wait until the end of next March.

At noon, after Liu Ren hosted Curry and the others for lunch, he arrived at the Staples Center early. The three of Curry and his party also returned to the hotel early. The coaches of both teams had their pre-match arrangements.

D'Antoni did not emphasize the arrangement, but further reduced the playing time of the veterans of Kobe and Gasol, giving Nash a little more playing time.

He has played 27 games since the beginning of the season. Kobe played 22 games. He averaged 22 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in 31 minutes per game. The playing time and attendance rate were much longer than the team's initial expectations.

So this time D'Antoni’s arrangement has nothing to do with the addition of Nick Young, Korver, Antetokounmpo’s playing time, Kobe Kobe’s and Gasol’s playing time.

"The next schedule will be very difficult, so in some unnecessary games, we have many players who need to take turns. Of course, this also means that the players on the bench have more opportunities to show themselves. I hope the young players If you can show your strength, you'd better grind down the starter. To be honest, I think those old faces are already annoying. Who of you can compete!" D'Antoni said with a helpless expression.

"Hahahaha, coach I will work hard!" LaVine shouted.

"Damn! Zach, you are trying to grab the starting position that I finally got! This was specially let by Steve!" Jeremy Lin exaggerated.

"Hahahaha..."

The rest of the Lakers couldn't help laughing.

The Lakers players are very relaxed. Because the Lakers have won the first two games against the Warriors. Although the process was relatively difficult, they always won. Therefore, the Lakers players do not value the Warriors because the Warriors are favored. Optimistic, after all, it is still a newly emerging team. The Lakers players have a much higher vision now, and for a while, some don't like the Warriors.

Only Liu Ren understands what the Warriors should achieve this year. Although the Warriors lack Green, there is a more talented Randall. Randall is very young. It is a fact that he has no experience in Green. After all, talent is an unavoidable topic. Randall is indeed very talented. If he develops well, he will never be worse than Randall in the future. It may be better than the Warriors in Liu Ren's memory of the 2015-2016 season. !

Liu Ren looked at his teammates treating the Warriors as ordinary opponents, and couldn't help but asked worriedly: "Coach, the opponent is the second strongest Warrior in the league, don't we need any special arrangements?"

The second strongest in the league? D'Antoni was a little surprised when he heard this title. Why did the Warriors rank second in the league?

Not only D'Antoni, but Nick Young also said: "Boss, the second best in the league is not the Warriors, right? Although they are now second in the league, I think the Clippers and Grizzlies are better."

Other Lakers players also echoed, obviously not paying much attention to the Warriors.

This time Liu Ren really has nothing to say. He can't say that this Warriors will overwhelm all other Western teams in the playoffs, and the finals will easily defeat the Eastern Champion Cavaliers, right?

Ghosts will believe.

Leaving aside other teams, the Cavaliers alone have now become a major focus of championship teams. After the Cavaliers started in December, the Big Three showed too much strength.

Of course, there seems to be no Love in the Big Three, but the rising Tristan Thompson. Only 2.08 Thompson rebounded to the top of Love. The defense is far more than Love. The value has soared from last season’s base salary to Tens of millions of levels, averaging 8+8 data per game, almost half of the rebounds are offensive rebounds~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It also allows James to finally shoot at will, not afraid of his teammates not being able to grab offensive rebounds. .

After the tacit cooperation of James, Irving, and Thompson, the Cavaliers have soared. They have surpassed the Raptors to become the third in the Western Conference. The Hawks and Knicks have been strong after the start.

And this is because Love did not really integrate into the Cavaliers, so he played so well, defeating the strong teams one after another, so that other teams are worried that if Love also integrates into the Cavaliers system, wouldn't it become the Big Four?

The teammates didn't care, the coach didn't care, Liu Ren really had nothing to say.

The current situation of the Lakers is not as good as it seems. In recent games, Kobe has begun to show a trace of fatigue. This is why the Lakers did not hesitate to agree when the Hawks proposed Korver for Baezmore. This can give Kobe more opportunities to rest.

The real strengths of the Lakers' perimeter are actually Kobe and Liu Ren. The other perimeters can only perform so well with these two players. Liu Ren knows this very well.

If Bryant declines due to too much playing time, it will inevitably affect the overall performance of the Lakers outside.

But it is inevitable that Kobe's status will decline, after all, he is so old.

Seeing that his teammates didn't care about the Warriors, Liu Ren could only cheer himself up: "Then only I will try to defeat the Warriors!"
