Chapter 935: [Much stronger than expected]

At the end of September, the preseason training camp opened and the King did not make any more transactions.
In the summer team trade rating, the King is D-class, the worst in the league, and the Cavaliers who got James got S evaluation, two extremes.
The "princes" were in pain and happy. The pain is that it is impossible for the King to win the championship this season, and the lineup is completely incomparable to the 80-win season. The joy is that the ball will be concentrated in Wang Jun's hands. Many people expect him to average 40+ per game and score high.
The only thing worse than the Kings is the Pacers. Because the infighting can't dig people, Stephenson went to the Hornets and Evan Turner joined the Celtics.
Paul George participated in the World Championships, severely injured his leg in the training match, and reimbursed for the new season. The video of his broken leg was posted on the Internet, which made people feel cold when watching it. It was more terrifying than Livingston's broken leg, and he bent over 90 degrees.
Suffering from this injury is a great test for the player's future psychology. It took Livingston many years to get out of the shadows, daring to make some big moves on the field.
The original Pacers wanted to send away Hibbert. Because George was injured and stayed in the team, Hibbert made people suspect that it was a locker room time bomb and could not get a good bargain.
On the media day, the king appeared a funny scene, and the publicity photo could not find a suitable third person photo. Finally, Patterson took photos with Wang Jun and Curry, which was the team's regular starter in the new season.
He just got a slightly higher salary, with an annual salary of 6 million. Looking at last season's performance, how can it be regarded as the core?
The king was looked down on by the whole world. In an interview with reporters, Wang Jun was not low-key at all, and he said a few goals happily.
"I want to take the scoring title, fight for the regular season MVP, and lead the team to impact the championship. This is the goal of the new season, and there is no change from before."
ABC Radio reporter thought he was too mad and could not help but sarcasm: "Is it more appropriate to position the Kings in the playoffs now? Many people think that the King is going to be bad this season, and they can't enter the playoffs. "
"Have I missed the playoffs? I'm not the kind of waste that only scores points. These new teammates, I don't think they are weak, but they didn't have the opportunity to prove themselves before, now they have the opportunity, as long as they work hard, I Dare to guarantee that they will reach the peak of their career in the King."
Another reporter asked: "In the summer, many outstanding players in the free market rejected the King. What do you think about this matter?"
"In the summer, through the trade, the team hoarded some draft picks. In the future, the reinforcement lineup will be based on the draft, rather than looking for veterans in the free market. If they don’t come, everyone can understand that I am not charming enough, and I respect their choice. "Wang Jun smiled."
Vivic was completely relieved. The lineup is so poor, Wang Jun did not have the idea of ​​leaving the king, and he will not leave in the future.
In the training camp, Kidd tried many sets of tactics, the core of which was only Wang Jun, the others had a clear division of labor, defensive and three-point shooting.
Gorbert gained weight in the summer and practiced strength. He weighed 111 kilograms. He was still too thin for his height, and he was able to fight against the ordinary inside. He relied on height and arm length to make up for the lack of strength.
Whiteside has also made progress, not only can he send an amazing big cap on the defensive end, after a few years of training in the CIC, it is also more reliable than the original. He struggled with Gobert for a starter. Kidd hadn't figured out who to use. His style was too similar. They were all blockers with long arms and long arms.
Curry brought protective gear on his ankles, the coaching staff asked him to reduce the breakthrough, and the task of holding the ball was all on Wang Jun.
"Little Black Bean" is a substitute for Thomas. In the Rockets, he once won the fastest player award, averaging nearly 20 points per game, but Kidd does not want to let this type of guard play too long, can be in the second quarter Be a soldier.
The power forward starts with Patterson, who is responsible for pulling out three-pointers, and the space insider has 6 million annual salary.
The biggest surprise is DeMarre Carroll. Not only can he make a stable three-pointer, he plays a bigger role on the defensive end, he has height and speed. If the opponent is not good at attacking the basket, he can make him guest 4 Small ball tactics.
Courtney Lee is more suitable to play off the bench, without rebounds, without assists, the offense mainly by shooting three points, defensive enthusiasm is good, the body is average.
Aminu and Bamotte also showed their strengths, that is, defense, they can not get high scores, and the opponents to defend do not score, training games are very hard.
The most unusual newcomer is Covington. 60% of the offense is outside the three-point line. There is almost no autonomous attack. Throw the ball. Regardless of whether there is anyone in front of him, this style of play really works.
Rookie Wilcox, veteran Barbosa, and Carter are the team's marginal players and perform the worst.
After playing a few preseason games, Kidd was pleasantly surprised to find that although the people selected by the management were not famous, but their strength was not weak, the defensive end was desperate, and they did not grab the ball. The king’s lineup was stronger than expected. too much.
The preseason game is mainly run-in, Wang Jun averaged 20 minutes per game, average performance, 16.5 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists, the team 3 wins and 4 losses.
After the preseason, the Kings signed the 15th man and gave the short insider Chuck Hayes an unguaranteed base salary contract.
Hayes and Raptors contract expired, averaging 2.2 points and 3.1 rebounds last season, playing 12 minutes. He is useless on the offensive end and can defend his opponent with a strong body on the defensive end.
When anti-fat man is needed, the king can send Shanghai Yes.
On October 28, the league opened a total of three openers, Spurs VS Mavericks, Magic VS Pelicans, Kings VS Lakers.
The league always considers gimmicks first when choosing an opponent. Last season, the Kings and the Lakers will not be allowed to start the game because they know that the Lakers can't beat them.
This season is different. The King lost James, and the media began to promote the Lakers' revenge three days in advance, in order to inspire Kobe's fighting spirit.
After Wang Jun joined the Kings, the Lakers have not won for four consecutive years, 0 wins and 12 losses, before the Lakers VS Wang Jun Bulls, 0 wins and 7 losses.
Kobe defeated Wang Jun last time, dating back to the 2003-2004 season, the Lakers and the Nets won both regular season games, and 2004-2005 Kobe was injured, missed the game with the Nets, the Lakers are in two games.
Wang Jun played the Lakers with a record of 21 wins and 2 losses. In addition to the rookie season, it was a complete crush.
Last season, Kobe failed to lead the team into the playoffs, but he is still one of the most popular and attractive fans because he can still average 27 points, 5 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.2 steals per game.
His career total points have surpassed Michael-Jordan, UU reading www. uukanshu.com ranks third in the overall history. As long as it stays in shape, it is not impossible to catch up with Jabal when he retires. Super Karl Malone is already a certainty.
However, Kobe also has an awkward record. He averaged more shots than Havlicek last season, ranking first in league history. Every time he hit an iron this season, a new record was born. Considering his current state, the iron-breaking record is definitely the first in history, and it is difficult for future generations to break.
The Lakers had 5 wins and 2 losses in the preseason.
Looking at the lineup of the two sides, the Lakers do not say that the stars are gathered, and their fame is far superior to the Kings. Kobe is interviewed but very low-key, and did not shout out the slogan of winning, which makes the Lakers fans a little disappointed.
He seems to have lost the shadow, even if the lineup is clearly dominant, he dare not easily win.
New Lakers coach Byron Scott also said: "As long as Wang Jun is here, the King is still a strong team. We will not relax our vigilance in this game and will try our best to win."
