After the training in the morning, Xu Xuan returned home, at half past eleven, after eating the nutritious meal sent by the nutritionist, it was not yet 12 o'clock, Xu Xuan stayed in the study to read the news.

Today is the announcement day of the list!

At first glance, it is the media's business.

They like to do things at this time, lest the world be chaotic, just like this power rankings.

There are two types of power rankings, one is the strength of the players and the other is the strength of the team.

Xu Xuan has nothing to pay attention to on the strength of the players, he must be in the top ten, maybe still in the top three.

On the strength of the team, Xu Xuan really wants to see what the outside world thinks of the Lakers.

At 12 noon, the three major media announced the final rankings at the same time, Xu Xuan directly refreshed the entire browser, and the three web pages were refreshed.

First of all, of course, it depends on the player power rankings, which is also the headline!

ESPN's side has been praising James for the past few years, and there is no doubt that this time the first place is Lao Zhan's head Lianzhuang, even if he only won the Eastern runner-up last season, ESPN still gave the first place to James.

The second is Curry, the third is Durant, and Xu Xuan is only ranked fourth.

The fifth is Bushy Eyebrows, the sixth is kawaii, the seventh is Willis, the eighth is Chris Paul, the ninth is Harden, and the tenth is Pickle Pepper.

Lillard, Towns, Griffin, Irving, and Cousins were all ranked outside the top 10.

This ranking is by ESPN.

On the Sports Illustrated side, the first is also James, but the second is Durant, the third is Curry, the fourth is Xu Xuan, the fifth is Harden, the sixth is kawaii, the seventh is Pickle Pepper, the eighth is Wei Shao, the ninth is my cannon, and the tenth is thick eyebrows.

Xu Xuan is fourth in both lists, and James is first.

However, when he saw the TNT form, Xu Xuan smiled happily.

Sure enough, TNT did not disappoint him, the first is no longer James's hair loss monster, but him, Xu Xuan.

In terms of TNT, Xu Xuan has been praised for the past two years, especially several of their commentators have a good relationship with Xu Xuan, and Barkley is known as "the world's biggest and strongest Xuan fan".

The headline was "Xu Xuan topped the league".

On TNT's side, James is second, Curry is third, Durant is fourth, kawaii is fifth, Harden is sixth, Westbrook is seventh, Paul is eighth, Pickles is ninth, and Cousins is tenth.

Thick eyebrows have been squeezed out of the top ten!

Xu Xuan grinned, and although ESPN and Sports Illustrated both ranked him fourth, they also gave reasons.

It's because Xu Xuan plays superstar in a system that suits him, and he is one of the five best players in the league in our opinion.

This one is more spiritual...... You see, I didn't say that Xu Xuan was bad, I just said that his strength may be more inclined to be a system player.

Xu Xuan's nickname of "winning" and "the strongest system player" was first said by ESPN.

When this idea emerged, it was quickly recognized, and someone was behind it, so much so that "the strongest system player" became his label.

Later, Xu Xuan's outburst became more and more fierce, and ESPN also "launched" a new nickname, the "strongest explosive" player.

These two nicknames come together, and they look good, the strongest + the strongest, but the basic meaning to be expressed is that it is not bad in itself, it all depends on the system and the outbreak.

Finally, TNT helped Xu Xuan "correct his name", and it was ESPN again, and he continued to jump out to promote the old cliché!

After the "strongest system player", ESPN simply gave the nickname of "system superstar".

Not to mention, the official websites of the three authoritative media are really ESPN's most replies and the most popular!

Obviously, if you want to do things with ESPN, the other two media are far behind, otherwise they will not give ESPN, a rising star, a chance to stand up, and even ESPN has become the number one sports media in terms of traffic.

However, TNT, the media that supports Xu Xuan the most, did not intimidate.

You dare to rank Xu Xuan fourth, and forcibly put the hat of "system superstar" on Xu Xuan's head, of course they won't watch the show, and directly squeeze out the top ten sequences of the thick eyebrows that rank fifth on ESPN.

Who is afraid of those who play with flowers.

You ESPN dare to rank thick eyebrows fifth, that is, you think Xu Xuan is similar to thick eyebrows?

I'll let you see, in our place, thick eyebrows don't even have the qualifications to be compared to Xu Xuan!

Also, there is really no comparison between the first and the top ten, and it is basically crushed.

TNT didn't speak out, nor did it give any evaluation, but this ranking can be seen in everything.

Fans of the thick eyebrows and Pelicans fans expressed their dissatisfaction with TNT's ranking, saying that they would never watch TNT's garbage commentary and garbage live broadcast again.

TNT doesn't care, ESPN ranked Xu Xuan fourth, Xu Xuan's fans and Lakers fans also said that they want to share the sky with them, who has more fans and whose influence is not to mention, right?

......

In addition to the player strength ranking, the team strength ranking has not made any waves.

No way, everyone is optimistic about the Warriors now, and the East is optimistic about the Lakers...... Xu Xuan's personal strength is worth discussing, but the strength of the team ...... I know everything.

TNT doesn't have a head iron here, Xu Xuan's personal ability must be topped, the strength of the team is not easy to say, in the end, the Lakers only fell to the tenth place in the West, TNT gave the top eight, but it was only the top eight.

On the Western side, the first is the Warriors, the second is the Clippers, the third is the Spurs, the fourth is the Trail Blazers, the fifth is the Mosaics, the sixth is the Jazz, the seventh is the Thunder, and the eighth is the Lakers.

This is the team power ranking given by TNT.

But it's good to look at this thing, Xu Xuan threw it aside after reading it, there is no need to hold it and look at it.

After an afternoon of rest, I slept a little, adjusted my mood, and prepared for the game.

The Lakers and Mosaics are a game that has been watched a lot, and everyone wants to see what kind of answer the two teams can deliver in the regular season.

As mentioned earlier, there are not many reinforcements on Mosaic's side, but every stroke is crucial, such as Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon. v5

Anderson, 28, was the 21st pick in the first round in 2008 and is worth mentioning that he also served as a substitute for the United Arab Emirates.

After switching to the Devil, Anderson also partnered with Howard. Despite being 2.08 meters tall, Anderson is an outside battery, averaging two three-pointers per game and shooting 37.7 percent from the outside in his career.

Anderson played for the Pelicans last season, starting seven games in 66 games, averaging 17 points and six rebounds in 30.4 minutes per game, shooting 42.7 percent from the field and 36.6 percent from three-point range.

This is an "outside anti-aircraft gun" that is more similar to Frye, they are slightly less confrontational, and they are certainly not as good as the black and stubby like Green, but they can open up space on the outside and create opportunities for the main team.

And Gordon, in Xu Xuan's opinion, has much better attributes than Anderson.

This guy will later be one of the "double boarding combinations".

The three-point shooting was sharp, and he was drafted by the Clippers with the seventh pick in the first round in the 2008 draft. He quickly made his mark in the league, averaging 22.3 points per game in 2010-11, reaching the peak of his career. It is precisely for this reason that in the summer of 2011, the Clippers used Gordon as a core bargaining chip to acquire Paul through a trade.

After switching to the Pelicans, Gordon continued to suffer injuries and his scoring declined. But last season, Gordon played in 45 games for the team, averaging 15.2 points in 32.9 minutes per game, including 38.4 percent from three-point range, compared to 38.3 percent from three-point range in his career.

Mosaic has signed two Pelicans in a row and is committed to building a team around Harden. Both Anderson and Gordon are players with excellent outside shooting ability. Last season, although Mosaic shot three points from the outside, his accuracy was not good, so that his record fluctuated. From this point of view, Mosaic has been a dead end this summer.

......

Two teams with a lot of changes played the opener, there were topics, and there were stars, and the game was already hyped up as early as the end of the preseason.

In the first game, you have to watch each other well, and of course, you have to win! Losing on the night you got the ring was ugly.

......

Pre-match media interviews.

"Xu, what do you think the Lakers' goals are for the new season?" The reporters continued to ask.

"Strive to win the championship if you make the playoffs!"

Xu Xuan knew that the media were waiting for him here, so he planted the flag very generously, and Xu Xuan did not panic in case he failed to win the championship at that time, because he used the word "striving", not necessarily or surely.

Xu Xuan has been interviewed more now, and he has more knowledge.

To put it simply, it is to speak more horizontally. A group of reporters regretted that the breaking point they wanted did not appear, such as Xu Xuan's sympathy for "no champion and weak", or his expectation for a bright future.

Accurate.

......

On the 26th, Los Angeles was sunny and windy.

True wind and sunshine are hell.

It's hot in the City of Angels today, though!

It's so hot that other people's hearts feel like it's going to explode!

No way, although the preseason has already played home games, but it doesn't mean much, in the eyes of many fans, the regular season means the official start of the new season.

Therefore, I don't know from which day onwards, there are many, many Lakers fans in Los Angeles, especially on the day of the start of the game, those who bought tickets and entered happily; If you don't get a ticket, you watch the big screen outside; There are also bars and at home......

I don't know how many people are following this game during this time period.

When the official announcement was made, the huge Staples Center was filled with crazy fans almost in the blink of an eye.

The 19,000-seat stadium barely blisters at all, unlocking the achievement of "full house".

The Staples Center is in the center of Los Angeles, and when the arena is still 3 kilometers away, you can see three buildings side by side in the distance with huge portraits of the Lakers' three historical centers, Chamberlain, Abdul-Jabbar and O'Neal, which are Apple's advertisements on the three main buildings of the Grand Hotel Figaro across from the Staples Center. The three centre-forwards have different moves, with O'Neal being the highest. Although this is a commercial, it is the most intuitive way to promote the Lakers' center tradition.

Huge 'Let'sgo, Lakers!'' hangs at each entrance to the arena Banners and electronic display boards are constantly flipping through the glorious history of the Lakers winning championships and reaching the Finals, as well as introducing the current Lakers stars. Outside the arena are five statues of the Los Angeles Lakers, namely Magic Johnson, Jerry West, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, legendary commentator Zike Hearn, and Big Shark O'Neal.

Among them, O'Neal's one has not yet been completed, but Xu Xuan heard that the Lakers are already preparing to build a statue of Kobe Bryant in advance......

Staples looks a bit like an outer space building, and the night sky over Los Angeles always gives the arena a Hollywood touch. The arena's scoreboard is the best in the entire NBA league and can be seen clearly even by fans sitting in the highest stands.

At 6:20 p.m. on October 26, 2012, 20 minutes earlier than the usual game, the Mosaic players were introduced.

In the mosaic player tunnel, in the low introduction of the DJ on the spot, Xu Xuance saw the opponent's substitutes lined up in two rows.

Harden, Gordon, Capela, Anderson, Ariza, Nene ......

Staples Arena is one of the hottest home stadiums in the NBA, and the cheers of the fans at the scene have made Xu Xuan fully experience the blood-pumping feeling of the NBA when introducing the players of the two teams.

Today's Mosaic team activated the squad of only 10 people.

Then came the home team's players entered, and the substitutes were already lined up in two rows in front of the players' tunnel amid the cheers of the fans at the scene, and Xu Xuan was definitely the finale, there was no doubt about it.

The match is about to begin, and young rookies Ingram and Zubac and even Yi Jianlian are a little nervous.

Although Zubac is not a starter, after all, he is selected for the first time in the squad, and he is about to participate in a professional game, and there is this kind of cheer that resounded in his ears, and it would be false to say that he was not nervous.

Yi Jianlian is too, he hasn't felt what the NBA's regular season is like for a long time, although the Olympic scene is also big, but it is a completely different feeling from now.

The Olympics are about bringing glory to the country, and now it's for yourself!

Ingram is not afraid of life, after being nervous for a while, he began to look around, it is not the first time he has been in the Lakers' player tunnel, but now it looks fresh everywhere, and there is a different feeling everywhere.

But he thought that he seemed to be going to start, and he didn't know if he would be able to score or help the team, so he was a little shaky when he stood for a while.

Press one hand on your shoulder.

Brother Ying turned his head and saw a smiling face, it was Xu Xuan, Xu Xuan didn't speak, only patted him on the shoulder.

Somehow, when Ingram saw this smile, the tense atmosphere disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by endless courage to move forward.

What are you afraid of, there are adults behind me!

If you lose, you lose, if you don't play well, you can't play well, and you can still lose a piece of meat?
