Judging from the scene of the game, the Lakers are playing the Wizards almost all the way, but even if they do not go to the second half of the two towers physical overdraft, only Kobe is hard to support the stage, only the two players in the first two games. In the era of full physical strength, the Lakers did not occupy an absolute dominant position.
There are two main reasons, one on the three-pointer problem and the other on the bench.
Let’s talk about three-pointers first, no matter how much the insiders’ lethality is, their offensive style is ultimately a two-pointer. On the Wizards’ side, Curry, Thompson, George and even Leonard have three-point shooting ability, and in the The hit rate in the first two quarters is not low.
Two-point shots are scored in three rounds. Three-point shots can be done in only two rounds.
It is true that the three-point shooting rate cannot be compared with the two-point shooting, but in the Wizards, the efficiency of three-point shooting is not low.
In the first quarter, Curry made 3 of 5 shots, made 3 3-pointers, Thompson made 1 of 3 shots, Leonard made 1 of 2 shots, and George made 1 of 1 shots.
The four starters scored 6 three-pointers in the first quarter, making a total of 6 of 11 shots, and the shooting rate exceeded 50%!
You may not feel much when watching the game, but when you see such data in detail, anyone can't help but take a breath.
What does a three-pointer with more than 50% hit rate mean? You know that most of the league's current guards are shooting less than 50%, not to mention three-point shooting.
In addition to the three-pointer, the Wizards have a backup lineup that is luxurious enough to make the entire league jealous.
Caron Butler plus Antoine Jamison, when the two were the main core partner, the Wizards’ record was not very good. Although they were reimbursed during the days when Arenas was injured, they both got it. He averaged 20+ points per game this season, but the Wizards missed the playoffs. After all, neither of them belonged nor were they suitable to be a team leader.
But when the two came to the bench, the concept was completely different.
With the strength of the two, even if they are too old, they can be qualified as the starting position of most league teams.
The firepower displayed by the two at the same time on the bench is extraordinary!
After the whole game, Caron Butler played 24 minutes, Antoine Jamison played 27 minutes, the two scored 12 points and 16 points respectively, and the shooting rate exceeded 45%.
Only two of them scored 28 points, which surpassed all the Lakers bench scores.
And the Wizards bench, there are Beverly, Jimmy Butler and other players.
In the game, the Wizards scored 37 points on the bench, compared to 21 points for the Lakers, which is a 16-point gap!
The huge gap on the bench forced the Lakers to send in the main force in advance, without enough rest time, the Lakers Twin Towers physical overdraft will be taken for granted.
"This is a non-war defeat. The Lakers lost to the poor performance of the bench, and also lost to the younger and more dynamic difference. The Wizards players are very young, so young that they can be unscrupulous on the court. Ran back and forth without thinking about the issue of physical energy consumption."
...
In any case, the Wizards just won the new season's first win from the Lakers' Staples Arena.
And this is just the beginning!

On December 27, the Wizards defeated the Atlanta Hawks 111:87 at home.
On December 29, they defeated the Milwaukee Bucks 102:81 away.
On January 1, 115:92 away Orlando Magic.
This was followed by a consecutive back-to-back away victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves 120:88 on January 2.
In the blink of an eye, the Wizards won a turbulent five-game winning streak at the start, and topped the league top!
No one thought that after replacing almost half of the starting lineup last season, the Wizards of the new season run in the lineup so fast!
Klay Thompson and Kawhi Leonard did not have any discomfort in the Wizards' starting lineup, and they all performed very well. Especially Thompson, in the small ball tactics with a three-point projection In the system, Thompson simply behaved like a fish.
After five games, Thompson averaged 2.6 three-pointers with a 39% shooting rate, averaging 15 points for the team.
In the whole team, except Curry and George, he is the third highest scoring point.
...
Paul George had a hard time playing in the first five games. The power forward position finally made him a little bit uncomfortable. Compared with his taller and stronger inside players, he was very defensive.
However, the loss on the defensive end became his advantage on the offensive end.
With a faster speed and longer range than traditional power forwards, George played easily on the offensive end. After five games, George can contribute 19 points per game, which is a big improvement over the previous season.
Of course, with George's hard work for a season and the tireless training of Wang Xiao's coaching system, he wants to score 20+ points per game, which is more than enough. The reason why there is no such thing is because there are too many points in the team... …
Of the five starters, four players scored in double figures, Thompson averaged 15 points per game, George averaged 19 points, and the remaining two were Leonard averaged 11 points and 31 points per game. Curry!
Leonard played a much more defensive role on the court than offensive, but even so, he still got a lot of opportunities to get out. At the beginning of his career, Leonard's offensive ability was not strong, and he did not develop anything particularly powerful. Offensive moves, but simply to end the offense, Leonard is not weak at all.
In another time and space, when he first entered the Spurs, Leonard had a 49.3% shooting percentage, most of which were slam dunks or layups that directly ended the offense under the basket.
On the Wizards, who dominate long-range shots, Leonard wants to get a chance to cut into the basket and catch a layup.
The main reason for giving him a lot of opportunities to end the offense is the Wizards' main core, Stephen Curry.
In the third season of his career, Curry's ability has been further improved, and more importantly, he finally got another time and space's closest partner in the Warriors, Klay Thompson.
Although this Thompson and Curry are still not familiar, and their personal abilities are far from mature, but the deterrent he brought outside is far from comparable to Danny Green.
Whenever Thompson actively starts running without the ball, it can be said to give Curry the greatest screen support.
This is the first two years Harden and Danny Green cannot help Curry anyway!
