The preseason game between the Lakers and Clippers not only attracted more than 10,000 fans from both sides to Staples Arena, but was also broadcast live on major TV stations such as ABC, ESPN and Huaxia TV Sports Channel. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In addition to TV media, hundreds of reporters, including traditional newspapers, online media and mobile Internet media, have also submitted interview requests to the Lakers.

Two hours before the game, media from all over the world came to Staples Arena and began interviewing the spectators, giving the illusion that it was a playoff game.

After all, the number of international reporters covering the Lakers is a huge difference when many teams don't have more than 10 reporters in the preseason.

It can be seen that although there is no Xiao Feng and Kobe, the Lakers are still the most concerned team in the entire NBA league, even in the preseason, they still attract people's attention.

Of course, most of these reporters are still black-haired Chinese, although Xiao Feng retired, but there are still three main players in the Lakers team are Chinese, and the attention of the Chinese media is also reasonable.

Xiao Feng and his family did not appear in the stands of Staples, after all, after retiring, he hopes to downplay his influence in the team and keep the attention of the media and fans on the team.

Since he chose to retire, Xiao Feng didn't want to be at Staples Arena often and bring unnecessary pressure to the team. If the team gets on track quickly and gets rid of the influence of Kobe Bryant and Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng will be happy to sit in the stands and watch the team's performance.

However, Xiao Feng, who cares about the team, still watched the whole game on TV at home, and was quite satisfied with the team's easy 109-97 victory over the Clippers.

In the game, Gasol, Downs, Jeremy Lin, UAE and Zhou Qi all scored double-doubles, and the multi-point blossoming offensive allowed the team to win the game in the third quarter.

Although there are no superstars on the team who can make a final decision, the five starters are all first-class stars, and with deep bench strength, the Lakers can still be competitive enough in this league.

After just watching one preseason game, Xiao Feng already has more expectations for the team's performance in the new season, and maybe they can bring enough surprises to everyone.

Xiao Feng is satisfied with the team's performance, and the media and fans will not disagree, after all, the team has not exposed too many problems in the first preseason game.

Winning is always good news!

The team got off to a good start in pre-season, even if it wasn't as easy as it was when Xiao Feng was there, but it was a good thing after all.

Everyone has reason to believe that the team will run in better and perform better as time goes on.

…………

The victory in the first game also made the pressure on the Lakers drop sharply, and the atmosphere in the team has become relaxed.

After all, the team has been invincible in the league in the past three years, winning three consecutive championships, and if it is beaten this season, everyone's face is probably lost to the Pacific.

In normal training, the team can't feel the huge impact of losing Xiao Feng, and now the preseason is a good opportunity to practice.

With a happy mood, the Lakers continue to prepare for Game 2 of the preseason, still at home against their Western neighbors, the Phoenix Suns.

The selection of opponents in the preseason is still very sophisticated, and although most games are arranged by the league, teams like the Lakers can still have more convenience.

For example, the preseason games in the United States were all scheduled at Staples Arena, reducing the team's toil.

After these two preseason games in the United States, the Lakers will travel to Beiping, Haizhou, Xiangjiang and Ginkgo to participate in four overseas preseason games, which is also an important part of the NBA league's Chinese marketing promotion.

In fact, since Xiao Feng joined the Lakers and personally played on the court, the Chinese market has become the most important overseas market for the NBA league.

Over the past two seasons, the NBA has held a total of 26 preseason games in China, setting off a craze for basketball everywhere it goes, attracting millions of live fans and hundreds of millions of television viewers.

Although the average ticket price for a pre-season game in China is only $100, the advertising revenue generated before and after the preseason exceeds the average ticket revenue of $1.2 million per game, which is a financial account that anyone can calculate.

This year, the league has arranged a total of 15 preseason games to be held in 7 cities in China, and tickets have been sold out as early as half a month ago.

The hot ticket sales also made the NBA league regret a little, and it should have arranged a few more games, after all, the attendance rate of the preseason in the United States will not exceed 80%, where can it be as full as Huaxia?

The $18 million in tickets for 15 games, plus the cost of television broadcasts, advertising and various sponsorships, allowed the NBA league to earn about $40 million from the Chinese market this summer.

Even if the cost and dividends with partners are removed, the profit of the NBA league will not be less than 10 million, so that more than half of the playoff prize money will come out!

In order to attract more Chinese fans to watch the game, and in order to attract more advertisers, the teams that go to China to hold preseason matches must also be carefully selected.

For example, the Bulls and Rockets, who have extensive influence in China, and the Cavaliers, Warriors and Heat, who have superstars, are all key targets for the league. After all, if you get a team like the Memphis Grizzlies, I'm afraid many Chinese fans won't buy it.

As the Lakers with the most Chinese elements, they have naturally become the most popular team, and will hold a preseason game with the Knicks, Rockets, Cavaliers and Bulls respectively to satisfy Chinese fans.

From the beginning of the preseason, the NBA will become an indispensable part of the lives of Chinese fans in the next nine months!

In fact, for Chinese fans, every autumn is the beginning of their visual feast, whether it is the NBA or the European League, it is all interesting to watch.

…………

On October 8, the Lakers defeated the visiting Suns at home, and the starting five Tigers still scored double-doubles, while Jeremy Lin's 12 assists and 10 rebounds from UAE and Mark also made a huge contribution.

In the absence of a superstar, the Lakers played a beautiful overall offense, dazzling coordination, and the brilliant performance of each player, which immediately won the hearts of fans and media alike.

After the game, the major media outlets believed that the Lakers were trying to get rid of the superstar shadow of the past three years, and they did a good job!

Although it is only two preseason games, the technical and tactical level and player strength shown by the Lakers are enough to ensure that they are still the strongest contenders for the championship in the new season.

Compared to the situation where the superstars of each team are gathered, the Lakers only use five strong players to knead together, which is undoubtedly easier to win the recognition of fans and media reporters.

Invisibly, the Lakers earned more praise before the start of the season, which is undoubtedly the best relaxation for this defending champion.

At the end of the game against the Suns, the Lakers players, coaches and club administrators boarded the 'Mengyao' together to prepare for the preseason game in China.

Of course, the team is accompanied by the players' families, which is also one of the club's benefits, so that the players can enjoy more family fun.

After all, it doesn't matter if you win or lose in the preseason, the key is to train the team, so having your family accompany you will not have much impact on the team's preparation.

Compared with the Lakers' luxury private jets, although other teams are also charter flights, they certainly can't be compared with the 'Mengyao'.

The players of the Lakers have posted various photos of the interior of the 'Meng Yao' on Twitter and scarf, which is not only the envy of fans, but also the superstars of the NBA.

After a 13-hour long-distance flight, the Mengyao finally landed safely at Beiping International Airport, where more than 3,000 fans and 200 media reporters picked up the plane, which was an unprecedented event!

Although Xiao Feng has retired, he is still the owner of the Lakers, and there are three Chinese in the Lakers team as the main players, and the enthusiasm of Chinese fans for the Lakers is still the same.

Under the desperate escort of the on-site security personnel, the Lakers star finally got out of the crowd and boarded the bus to leave the airport, and everyone felt the frenzy of Chinese fans.

The day after tomorrow, the Lakers will face the Chicago Bulls, who have a wide influence in China, at the Wukebai Basketball Arena, thus kicking off the prelude to the pre-summer season in China.

It's going to be a big game!

…………

The Lakers and other NBA teams are preparing for the preseason and even the regular season, and European football is already in full swing!

As the defending champions in all competitions, Newcastle United have become the focus of global sports media and football fans, and their performances have lived up to expectations.

In the England Charity Shield and the UEFA Super Cup before the start of the season, Li Yan led the team to win two championships, continuing last season's good form.

And Li Yan himself won the best midfielder and best player awards in the Champions League in UEFA's selection last season, and he was in the limelight for a while.

In the just-concluded World Cup, Belgium, which has no superstars, unexpectedly won the crown, which also made the selection of this year's Ballon d'Or more variable.

As is customary, teams that win the European Championship and World Cup usually have players who win the Ballon d'Or or World Footballer of the Year.

However, since last season, Li Yan's performance on all fronts can only be described perfectly, he not only led Newcastle United to win all the championships, but also led the Chinese men's football team to the quarterfinals of the World Cup in history.

Now there are two months left before the year-end selection, and it is not yet known who will die!

In the first eight rounds of the English Premier League, Li Yan and his Newcastle United team won eight consecutive victories, scoring 28 goals and conceding only 5 goals, which is shocking!

Now, the major media have played the headline 'who can beat them', thinking that Newcastle United has entered its heyday and it is difficult to find a defeat!

Now, the 'backcourt double gate' formed by Li Yan and Brooklyn is getting better, and Newcastle United has conceded a significant reduction in the number of goals conceded in the new season, thanks to the fact that the competitive form of the two has gradually entered the peak stage.

In addition to these two outstanding stars, Newcastle United also have a new highlight this season, that is, Xiao Dayi, who is the team's striker!

Born in September 2000, Siu is a fourth-generation member of the Siu family, with more than $1 billion in assets under his belt, and has been the focus of much media attention since he joined Newcastle United's youth team.

In the past three years, he has broken the goal record of the youth team and even the entire English youth league as the main striker of the youth team, and is considered by many media and football veterans to be a new generation of goal machines!

This season, Xiao Dayi, who ********, was promoted to the first team by Alan Shearer, and his debut was a big scene like the UEFA Super Cup.

Maybe it's a big heart, or maybe it's used to seeing the world, Xiao Dayi didn't have a jerky performance at the Bernabeu, scoring two goals with an overhead kick to help the team beat Europa League winner Roma 3:0, which can be regarded as a blockbuster.

In the first eight rounds of the Premier League, Xiao Dayi scored a total of six goals, including headers, long-range shots, grabbing points and pushing empty goals after shaking off the goalkeeper, showing unparalleled all-round skills.

Although Xiao Dayi is only 18 years old, he is 188cm tall and weighs 90 kilograms, he can be called a heavyweight on the football field.

In addition, Xiao Dayi also has a good starting speed, often can throw off the opponent in an atmosphere of 5-10 meters, creating favorable conditions for the team's attack;

Some people say that Xiao Dayi's template is 'Van Basten', but his right arm Basten is stronger, and he may not become a glass man!

With the perfect central axis of Xiao Dayi, Alonso, Li Yan and Brooklyn, Newcastle United has maintained a momentum of great progress in the new season, although it has faced strong resistance from more opponents.

And in Newcastle United's youth team, there are still a large number of talented teenagers who are gearing up, waiting to enter the first team and enter the European stage!

With the abundant financial support of the 'Mirror Lake Group' and the huge role of the 'Space Spring', Newcastle United has entered a virtuous circle. While modern football is becoming more and more competitive, Newcastle United can stand tall in the competition!

The Magpie Dynasty is gradually being established! )
