On the 25th to 27th, the start was the back-to-back of the Devil's schedule, but the Lakers played their dominance, defeating the Bulls, Kings and Jazz in succession, and took the lead in winning a wave of three consecutive victories.
Because of the schedule, the Lakers are also the first team to play three games, so they also naturally sit on the throne of the Western Conference.
Ji Feng scratched his head a bit. He didn't expect the three-game winning streak to come so easily. He said it was low-key. This is very unstable. It seems that he should put it off appropriately afterwards.
To be honest, Ji Feng is really good at winning so easily, because at the beginning of the season, the Lakers were really adjusting the lineup. After all, the off-season is too long, and they only have less than 20 days after they gather. Time for joint training, the new aid running in the Cavaliers is very general, in view of the tone set this season, Zen Master decided to use the first few games at the beginning of the season to run in the new lineup to better prepare for the postseason.
In these three games, the Lakers averaged 10 players per game, and the third game with the Jazz was full of 12 players. This is quite rare before. Although the Zen master has not always been the main player who likes dead grass, such a large-scale rotation It’s not too much. Look at the Heat next door. Both games are 7-man rotations. After Battier is brought back, James averaged 42 minutes and a half per game. I don’t know why the money is spent...
Moreover, the Lakers also intend to expand their tactics, and the way they play is not the same as last season. The Zen Master intends to test the firepower of the outside generals, and by the way, try to see who can appear in the tough battle that may happen later. You can’t see it because there are too few opportunities to play, but none of the perimeters are really bad, especially Kapono. This previously criticized marksman seems to have a second spring appearance, averaging 16 appearances in three games. In half and half, he can get 8.7 points, average 2.1 three-pointers per game, and the three-point shooting rate is as high as 50.1%. He is second only to Ji Feng in the Lakers. It seems that the money is not in vain.
More importantly, Capono made the Lakers perimeter group full of crisis. The competition within the Lakers team suddenly became a lot fierce. The direct manifestation is that everyone has been training harder, so I don’t mention it when they practice more often. I also engage in shooting competitions from time to time. At this time, everyone's three-point ability has stabilized. This is an unexpected thing.
But if you win, you win. Winning is naturally worthy of joy. This will also allow the Lakers to rotate more and give up some game space.
Well, that's it!
amount…
If outsiders knew that Ji Feng would think this way after winning, they would not know how they would feel.
Maybe this is Fanxue...
But the outside world hasn't reacted to the Lakers' three-game winning streak. It has been four years and I have long been used to it. It's normal to win. When the Lakers won't win or won't win a row, it's big news.
Therefore, the media focused on the Lakers’ superb three-pointers. They made at least 15 three-pointers in three games. The outstanding perimeter ability is currently ranked first in the league. This is also the time when the Lakers have scored the most perimeter in the past few seasons. Many analysts are analyzing whether the Lakers have changed again.
But three games are still too few, they have focused their attention on the next game.
It just so happens that the Lakers' fourth deputy is a strong Eastern team recognized by the league today, and they are also considered the Lakers' best touchstone.
That's right, the Lakers in the first four seasons were a tragedy-the New York Knicks!
On December 30th, the Lakers, who had been corrected for three days, sat at home and ushered in the challenge of their fourth opponent, the Knicks.
Speaking of the Knicks, I believe that every fan watching the NBA has countless things to say, but they don’t know where to start, so...slightly~!
The Knicks started last season. It’s not too much to say that this is not what it used to be. The joining of Stoudemire and Anthony allowed the captain of the fish belly Knicks to directly withdraw and become a playoff-level ball in the Eastern Conference. The team, who made the playoffs after many years last season, can be regarded as making Dolan Yang proud. After all, he still has a foresight. The recruits are finally not a large group of waste and parallel wages!
The motivated Knicks continued their efforts in the summer, dug Chandler and Stoudemire to form a twin tower, and by the way also brought Bibby, who could not mix with the Hawks, as a substitute, plus the original member Fatton, Douglas , Novak and others, in this way, the Knicks formed a lineup not weaker than most teams.
And this also makes the Knicks ambitious, Anthony directly stated that their goal this season is to compete for the championship!
Well, it's a big tone, it smells like the Knicks used to.
And the first game of the new season to kill the Celtics seems to have increased their confidence, so this time, they are ambitious to do something at Staples, although the Knicks have not won the Lakers in 3 years.
Game start!
The Knicks have a neat starting lineup, Chandler, Stoudemire, Anthony, Douglas, Felton and Biao Lakers Gasol, Bynum, Ji Feng, Kobe, Black.
From the beginning, the Knicks focused on Anthony. Anthony has now reached the pinnacle of his career, and he is not at all shocked when facing Ji Feng. His unique three threats and excellent shooting ability make him play in Ji Feng. Defensively can also take the lead to get 2 points.
However, returning to the defensive end, Anthony can only watch Ji Feng’s taillights. Anthony has been getting heavier in the past two seasons. It seems that he is more and more matched with his nickname'Melmelon.' It's as bad as always. The most important thing is not willing to defend. 2009 is really the peak period of defense visible to the naked eye.
Ji Feng made an emergency stop, CROSSOVER broke through, and after Chandler assisted in the defense, he scored the ball directly and Bynum dunked both hands.
2-2.
Turning back, Anthony once again hit the middle distance, Ji Feng instantly responded with a three-pointer.
Anthony played HIGH, and he didn't give it to others with the ball. He only had the basket in his eyes. Ji Feng also faced Anthony as he wanted. In the first five minutes, the two opened 50-50.
However, after the official timeout, Ji Feng suddenly changed his style of play, and his passing began to increase, allowing Kobe to score twice in a row.
As for Anthony, he can't change his style of play. As always, Stoudemire can't run fast in singles, but Anthony just refuses, he is hard steel!
So after a quarter, Ji Feng 8 points, 5 assists, 5 rebounds and 2 steals, Anthony 13 points, 2 rebounds, 0 assists and 0 steals.
In terms of scoring, Anthony, who took 10 shots, won. However, the Knicks lost 10 points in a single quarter.
"It's been a long time and spent so much money. Why does it taste like this? It tastes too good!" Barkley shook his head and laughed. This first quarter is simply the Knicks exclusive crash start.
