The league's arrangement has always been for ratings, and the Los Angeles derby for the opening game is naturally for the topic.

Ruan Erniu has now surpassed Kobe Bryant with 4 championship rings and has become the well-deserved No. 1 basketball star in Los Angeles.

It doesn't matter, the Lakers have F4, and the Clippers only have a dual-core drive for the Bubble Girl Combo in the end. The truth that two fists are invincible to four hands is also very clear to the people of the United States.

What's more, Nguyen Er Niu is now the richest man in the NBA, and his personal wealth is enough to buy the entire league.

According to the traditional values of the United States, this thing's thirst for victory may decline indefinitely now, and after a glorious 11-12 season, it is really a question of how much passion for basketball is left.

The Lakers' poor performance in the preseason is nothing, and in the regular season, it is time to test the true level of the team.

Staples Center, where the two Los Angeles teams will play the NBA's opener, while the Clippers, last season's champions, will have a championship ring presentation ceremony before the game begins.

The newcomers on the Clippers' side naturally looked at the old members with hot eyes and smiled, and took the rings from Erniu, who was in charge of hosting the scene, one by one.

Suddenly, a player wearing a yellow-blue jersey appears in the ring collar group.

Hassan Whiteside obviously didn't react, and said in surprise: "What's the situation? There are Lakers guys coming to make trouble on this occasion, should we do it?"

Draymond Green tilted his neck mockingly, and said to the tall white side next to him: "Man, that guy is Nick Young, one of the championship-winning members of the Clippers last season."

If you want to go back to the injury list, or report back to the Development League right away, I'd agree with you. ”

On the stage, where the lights converged, Ruan Erniu handed the ring gift box in his hand to Nick Yang, and said to Yang Shaoxia: "Thank you for everything you did last season, you will always be one of us." ”

Yang Shaoxia said: "Thank you, and thank you to the Clippers and you for giving me this opportunity." ”

Nick Young led the ring back to the team, and greeted him with congratulations and envy from his teammates, especially Dwight Howard, who didn't have a ring in his hand, and said exaggeratedly: "Nick, how about you lend me a look?"

Nick Young quickly put away the ring and said, "NO! ”

The Sparks are not the only Lakers players with envious eyes, including Steve Nash, who missed tonight's game due to injury, Paul Gasol, Ci Shiping, who has never been able to win the championship because of Erniu's blocking, and Antoine Jamison, who has to hold his legs with a base salary for the championship, are also envious.

After the opening ceremony, both teams took to the field first.

The lineup on the Clippers' side hasn't changed much from last season:

C DeAndre Jordan

PF Nguyen Er Niu

SF Kawhi Leonard

SG JJ Reddick

PG Chris Paul

Although Jordan Jr.'s performance in the Finals last season was poor, he was after all a center signed by the Clippers with an annual salary of tens of millions.

What's more, in this era of the gradual decline of center in the league, Jordan Jr.'s rot is finally not enough to completely drag down the entire Clippers system.

As for Ray Allen, it's not surprising that he didn't mix in the starter, after all, he is a 37-year-old veteran, and it is unrealistic to expect him to average more than 35+ minutes per game like he did when he was younger.

Even he's in great physical condition.

Erniu even doubted that with Ray Allen's playing style and self-control, as long as he wanted, he could even play until 40+ without retiring.

The Lakers' startup wasn't too surprising either:

C Dwight Howard

P.F. Pau Gasol

SF Tzu Shiping

SG Kobe Bryant

PG Steve Blake

Nash's absence has left the Lakers' F4 one less player, but Lakers fans are still looking forward to them.

In the jump ball session, Sparks won over Uncle Huang and dialed the ball to Kobe, who directly held the ball across the half court, and then handed the ball to Gasol in the high position.

Erniu's defense at the beginning was not very tight, but he clearly felt that the sister-in-law on the opposite side was very uncomfortable.

The hesitation with the ball was a bit long, and the second cow applied a little pressure, and Gasol had to distribute the ball.

This summer, the Lakers have two players who have chosen to lose weight, one is Kobe, although Mamba has lost a little, but his appearance has not changed much, but the other has lost weight, but he is completely like a newcomer.

Yes, he is Ci Shiping who holds the ball on the outside, Leonard's defense is very tight, and Shiping has no chance to shoot directly, so he has to pass the ball to the spark on the inside.

The intention of passing the ball was too obvious, Erniu found the right position, easily cut the basketball, immediately turned on the offensive and defensive transition mode, and in the advance of the ball, the ball was distributed to the hands of JJ Redick, who raised his hand and shot......

Entered!

Typical brute bull style, high-speed conversion, complete the attack on the go!

A strong team needs a regular offensive and defensive style for both players and teams.

After a season of running-in, the Los Angeles Clippers have formed a quite tacit cooperation, but on the other hand, the Lakers have no superstar cooperation to look forward to.

It can be seen from the offensive end of the Lakers that Kobe Bryant also tried hard to hold the ball and cooperate with the sparks, but the two really couldn't cooperate.

Bryant is also getting older, and as his athleticism declines, Bryant's biggest missing area on the offensive end is undoubtedly the breakthrough, and he always prefers to use three-point pull-outs, dribble back to jump shots, or lean back to finish offense.

What about Howard?

His biggest problem is that he can't block and dismantle, or his block and dismantle is completely dismantled at once, and he has no ability to make walls at all, or he has no willingness to make walls at all.

How to understand it?

It can be analyzed from a certain Laker's offensive round.

Kobe Bryant held the ball on the outside, and the spark stepped forward to block and dismantle, but Kobe Bryant was either suddenly caught by two Clippers players and couldn't get the ball, or he directly chose to pull it out, and the result was a shot that hit the iron.

There is a concept that has to be mentioned here, that is, two attack modes of pick-and-roll coordination:

1. The player responsible for blocking people makes the wall, stands still and provides enough space for the ball holder to break through, which is also the most classic way to block and dismantle, such as Malone and Stockton, the ball holder with strong breakthrough ability scores directly on the basket, and if he encounters a bag, there are high players to shoot and score.

The question is, does the Spark have a stable mid-to-long-range projection ability in the game? (There must be one in training, Warcraft shoots three points accurately in training, 8 of 9 shots, and there is a video left!)

Well, so Howard went with a second pick-and-roll fit.

Second, after blocking people, the player who does the wall directly cuts the basket, which is also the so-called one-stop and dismantling, you can see Payton and Kemp in the 90s, and after 04 in the new century, you can't help but mention Nash and Xiaosi.

From this point of view, since Nash did not return from injury, Mike Brown is using Kobe Bryant as Nash, but the spark and Kobe's pick-and-roll cooperation is desperate.

Countless Lakers fans thought that everything would be different when Nash returned, but the truth is, everything is still bad.

It wasn't until near the middle of the season that Mike Brown was squid, assistant coach Bernie Bickerstaff (not the same as the future Rockets' *** Bickerstaff) was temporarily appointed, and Mike D'Antoni was on the fire line......

Well, well, it's better to keep losing, even if there are occasional flashes like the victory over the Thunder.

In the middle and late stages of the season, Kobe Bryant came to the low post as a shaft, Nash became a shooting guard, and the Lakers' record improved slightly.

It's far away, back to this game, since Kobe Bryant and Howard's blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation is not good, why not return to the OK combination period, the kind of internal and external flowering mode, so that Mamba and Warcraft become strong points on the court at the same time?

Quite simply, the low-level abilities of Warcraft are simply speechless.

As far as this opening game is concerned, the spark was locked up by Jordan Jr.

It is true that Spark's injury objectively affected his game state, but this is not an excuse for Spark not to practice the offensive skills of a top center, and in the face of the more mature little Jordan, the monster really can't score goals.

In this game, Ruan Erniu only played three quarters of the game, so he clocked out early, and Erniu, who scored 28 points and 16 boards, used a maximum of 5 points, but it was a pity that the seemingly powerful Lakers fell so vulnerable.

All the hype in the media before the game became a joke, because after the game of the defending champions, the Lakers' old bottom was exposed in front of all the teams in the league.

As the leader of the team, Kobe Bryant is not only declining physically, his concentration on the defensive end is also declining seriously, and it is completely correct to defend Bryant in the first team last season, and to be honest, he should not even be in the second team.

Pau Gasol is the biggest victim of the Lakers team at the moment, as he has completely lost himself in an unfamiliar system and forgotten about the triangle offensive system that Phil Jackson has arranged.

Ci Shiping is playing like a rookie, but unfortunately he is also old, and after losing weight, his condition has also declined significantly.

Losing weight is good for a player to live longer, but it can also have a huge impact on their consistency on the field.

A good team, such as the Spurs, after Duncan lost weight, Popovich also had to compress his playing time in various ways, and this is the reason why the system supports the team, and the current Lakers team does not have a Popovich-style coach, nor has it developed an effective system.

That's right, Crouching Tiger (Lakers fans call themselves, that is, my lake) has always played superstar basketball, and the system is just a superstar mashing together. Finding players according to the system has never been the style of the Crouching Tiger.

The game was lackluster, and the Lakers' bench played well in garbage time, including Nick Young and Jamison, but unfortunately they couldn't save the huge point difference.

At 95:125, the Clippers beat their opponents by 30 points in the opening game and started their 12-13 season with a very strong attitude.

Ruan Erniu said after the game: "The Lakers are not as strong as they imagined, maybe the reason why Nash has not returned, I am still looking forward to the next game, but this game should not be their real level." ”

Manniu still saved face for his opponents in the same city, after all, playing in a city, the relationship is too stiff and really boring.

According to a two-dimensional work, Manniu's lines should be like this: "You are weak in attack, you are not good at blocking, you are loose in defense, you are slow to react, you don't have any decent movements! Do you still want to compete with me on the same stage?"

Well, Erniu is not Kong Wenge, and he will not make such a mockery to set up the FLAG of the small BOSS, as the first person in active service, and the serious big boss of countless people, Erniu must lead the Clippers to continue to play a dominant performance, and win all the way.

In fact, that's exactly what the Clippers did.

After slaughtering the Lakers in the opener and getting off to a good start to the new season, the Clippers didn't stop their tracks.

On November 2, the Clippers defeated the Grizzlies at home, and the two sides fought endlessly in the first half, but in the third quarter of the game, the Clippers suddenly made a force on the offensive end, opened the score gap in one fell swoop, and firmly maintained the advantage until the end of the game.

On Nov. 3, the Clippers continued to sit at home and faced the Warriors back-to-back challenges, with Rookies Azery and Harrison Barnes both getting starters as Bogut was sidelined due to injury.

The two sides fought against each other, and the result was that the Clippers won by 5 points and won three consecutive games after the start of the game.

On November 5, the Clippers ushered in the fourth opponent after the start of the season in Los Angeles - the Cleveland Cavaliers, Irving and Waiters both shot at home, but the Clippers still had the last laugh in the final quarter, with Paul's 16-foot shot, the game was killed.

On November 7, the last opponent of the first five consecutive home games at home, the San Antonio Spurs, the old and spicy Popovich did not mean to fight with the Clippers for a long time, and after a little resistance, he took the initiative to admit defeat, and the Clippers won the opening five consecutive wins.

After five consecutive home games, the Clippers traveled to Portland for their first road trip of the new season.

Erniu continued his causal performance of blowing up opponents every time he met Aldridge, and rookie Damian Lillard performed well, scoring 16 points in front of Paul, but that was all.

Speaking of which, the Clippers had an easy start to the new season, and after this road trip, they are back at home in Los Angeles, where they will face another three-game home game against the Hawks, Heat, and Bulls.

The Eagles are no longer what Erniu used to be, this team is rebuilding around Griffin, and the lunar eclipse is at odds with the griffin, and after seeing the contract expire, the griffin's departure is already doomed.

Erniu and the Clippers were not polite, and a wave took away this team that had no will to fight.

After a thrilling all-meter live broadcast, the Clippers had the last laugh again, relying on the brave performance of Erniu and Ray Allen's fatal three-pointer, and finally the defending champion had the last laugh and won eight consecutive victories.

As for the last opponent of the last three consecutive home games, the Chicago Bulls, it is not difficult for the Clippers.

Rose continues to be on the injury list, the Bulls are used to days without a boss, no matter how good the defense is, no offense can beat the Clippers.

80:111, the Clippers won 9 in a row.

After this game, the Clippers will start a four-game road streak, and their first away opponent is the San Anio Spurs.

This time, Popovich showed his real skills, and the two sides fought a playoff-level fierce battle, and the game was still undecided until the last minute of the final quarter.

At the crucial moment, Leonard stepped up, first blocking Ginobili's layup on the defensive end, and then sealed the victory for the Clippers with a lethal fast-break dunk.

The Spurs were forced to foul and send the Clippers to the free throw line, but the ensuing rush missed.

At 91:87, the Clippers narrowly defeated their opponents on the road and won the first 10 consecutive wins of the new season.
