The season hasn't officially started yet, and the Lakers have already attracted a lot of attention in the preseason.

While ESPN ranked the Lakers fifth in the power rankings, insiders and some sensible fans knew it wasn't realistic. In the case of Pippen's injury or refusal to play, the Bulls' record will definitely be affected.

Even Jordan turned on the god-killing mode and killed all sides.

Then the most powerful team this season, the team with the best opening record, the Lakers must be among them.

The Bulls, Lakers, and Jazz will definitely not have a bad record.

The hard power is there, and the reason Houston didn't make the list is that many people speculate that these veterans of Houston will wakeboard in the regular season and make a comeback in the playoffs.

In addition, a lot of attention in the preseason was focused on the champion Tim Duncan, the Lakers and the Spurs game, Kobe O'Neal's almost humiliating performance towards Duncan made everyone understand how terrifying the Lakers' strength is.

Or how terrifying is the strength of OK!

Oct. 21 against the Lakers, Phoenix Suns.

On Phoenix's home court, the Lakers have once again taken it by storm.

"Damn, yes, the coach is a magician and can win the championship." Danny Aingie complained frantically that this offseason he got McDeyes from the Nuggets, Hornacek from the Jazz, and signed free agent Cleverd Robinson, and the team completed a seismic upgrade.

But compared to OK, all resistance seems so weak.

Kevin Johnson was sealed to death by Kobe, Kidd had no scoring chance in front of Eddie Jones, and Hornacek was sealed by Bowen!

Kobe, Jones, and Bowen formed an outside defensive chain, and after Kobe's defense as a leader was upgraded in all aspects, the defensive chain has also been upgraded by more than one level!

Jones and Bowen went through the Finals, and their defensive improvement was just as significant!

If the Lakers' defense was only a consistently strong team last year, the league could find about five such teams. Then the defense that the Lakers have shown so far is dominant!

Historic defensive oppression! All-round pressure from the No. 1 to No. 3 position, a perfect defensive chain that almost all outside ball carriers can block!

This year, the Lakers' defense can even be compared to the peak Bulls! That invincible outside defensive group consisting of peak Jordan, Pippen, and Harper.

As for the current Bulls, the Lakers' defense has left them behind!

Aging has made the Bulls' defensive motivation, consistency, and agility all decline. If the Bulls are still 30 years old at their core, then they can still compete with the Lakers. But the current Bulls' outside guard group is 35 years old, and even Pippen can't play.

Harris is confident that this year's Lakers will only talk about outside defense!

It will be the first in the league!

The Suns tasted the horror of the Lakers' defense in this game.

Steals!

Bag clip!

Assist in defense!

Cycle!

Kobe, Jones, and Bowen are like three iron cables! A string of iron chains was formed, completely blocking the luxurious outside lineup that Danny Angie had worked so hard to compose.

At the end of last season, Kevin Johnson, who was crazy in the playoffs, shot 0 of 5 and made 3 turnovers in front of Kobe!

Thankfully, McDyce's presence has at least one fig leaf left for the sun. The combination of McDyce and Danny Manning is not bad.

McDyce is very athletic, and he is in the third grade this year, and he still has a very strong potential. The vast majority of experts predict that in the future he will be a 20+10 beast power forward.

Paired with the delicate Manning, such a twin tower looks like a good look.

But that only made it so bad that they didn't lose too ugly.

This game is still as long as OK plays, the scene is one-sided.

The game ended, Lakers 113:82 Suns.

Bryant played 11 minutes and scored 11 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 4 steals and 0 turnovers.

O'Neal played 14 minutes and finished with 21 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 blocks and 1 turnover.

"I envy you." Danny Angie and Harris shake hands after the game.

Harris certainly understood what he meant.

Full grade, who doesn't envy it!

"You're going to have a really good season this season." Harris snorted, this sentence is not false, the Suns are very balanced from starters to benches, especially with countless changes.

Such a team, with its explosive strength, will hit a lot of experts in the face.

"I have another killer move, and we'll pair up in the regular season." Danny Angie smiled slightly.

"We'll see."

Oct. 26 against the Seattle SuperSonics.

"Text! Let's top the Lakers together! That's what I want! "Gary Payton and Weinbeck are on their honeymoon now.

And George Carr on the side seemed a little preoccupied.

He watched the footage of these Lakers games, and the current Lakers gave him a feeling that the dynasty team was unstoppable. Although his team also has three All-Stars, he always feels so fragile compared to OK.

Eliminated by the Lakers last year, the team chose to blame the player for the problem and replaced Kemp.

And if they still don't do well this season, and the team's management asks for the finals, then they will fire themselves.

Reaching the Grand Final?

Just kidding, right?

This is what kind of leadership is able to put forward the task.

Western Lakers, Houston, Jazz which team is not a notch better than the SuperSonics.

Even the Spurs, Suns, and Trail Blazers are not so easy to deal with, and these teams are definitely not much weaker than the SuperSonics.

There are also the Timberwolves and the Clippers.

George Carr shook his head, and let it be his fate.

Payton frantically provoked Kobe Bryant before the game, but he was waiting for him to do a blow to the head.

"So strong!"

"What a joke!"

Bryant flew him with a dreamy step and then made a drifting jumper.

Back singles!

Unlimited backbody singles!

If Kobe Bryant's focus in the previous games was on defense and organization, then in this game Kobe Bryant is going to tear up gloves with offense!

When Kobe's strength does not fall behind, his best offensive skills! The back singles can be used perfectly!

Jordan was able to eat Payton with unlimited singles on his back the year before last.

Kobe Bryant can too!

One ball at a time! Hit Peyton in despair!

The game is over, the Lakers 97:81 supersonic!

Continuing to be a big win!

Kobe Bryant scored 25 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block on 11-of-14 shooting in 16 minutes!

Payton was beaten by Kobe Bryant until the end of the game, and he went straight back to the locker room without even paying attention to reporters.

It's a shame!

6 games in the preseason!

The Lakers win!

Sweep the whole field! Invincible Division!
