On October 31, multiple teams appeared on the second day, fighting each other against each other.

The Cavaliers suffered a 74-108 loss to the Mavericks at home, putting on a terrible opening game.

The most surprising thing is not the score, but the form of LeBron James. He shot just 2-of-11, 0-of-2 from three-point range and 6-of-10 from the free-throw line, finishing with 10 points, five rebounds, four assists, and five turnovers, a far cry from his performance at the American Championships.

On the international stage, James' teammates are a group of All-Stars, and it is difficult for opponents to contain him, and now the Mavericks players are crading around the three-second zone and letting him shoot from mid-to-long range.

Boozer had a team-best performance with 17 points and 18 rebounds, and the Ancient Lights Master also had 12 points and 10 rebounds, and the others couldn't score double-doubles. Gibson, Marshall, Damon Jones and others are collectively lost.

After losing House, the Cavaliers renewed the contract of "Little Squirrel" Stoudamire, and poached point guard Brevine Knight in the free market, who is 178CM tall and has a defensive black hole, has good organizational skills, has no range, and is not suitable for the Cavaliers system.

Digging Knight is a helpless move by the Cavaliers management, there is no good point guard in the free market, and the only one with some strength Mo Williams and the Bucks have a six-year contract extension of 51.5 million, and the Cavaliers have no salary space to poach people.

They could only let Gibson, who is good at shooting threes, start, and Knight and Flying Squirrel were responsible for organizing the offense when James was off the court. Jones can only play shooting guard, and his performance is terrible.

Mavericks blue-collar center Desague Diop has become a bitter master for the Cavaliers, with 8 points, 11 rebounds and 4 blocks, but he is a man in the restricted area, and the Cavaliers have to avoid him inside, and he will be interfered with to shoot. He sits in the restricted area, and James is not easy to score under the basket.

The embarrassing thing is that Diop was selected by the Cavaliers with a high pick, and he was a marginal man for two seasons, and the Suns traded him to the team without much cost. After joining the Mavericks, he replaced Dampier as the starter.

The Mavericks signed Ariza in the summer, plus Stark House and Trenton Hassell, and the wing defense has also become stronger.

On the offensive end, Nowitzki played a solid game and was slightly better than Boozer. Terry made the sixth man 7-of-12 shooting, 6-of-8 three-pointers, and 4-of-4 free throws, scoring a game-high 24 points and 4 assists to blow up the Cavaliers bench.

The Mavericks have become a powerhouse in the west again, and the situation in the west has become even more chaotic.

The Spurs' 108-111 loss to the Grizzlies in their first game shows how brutal the competition in the West is.

The GDP combination scored 64 points, and all five members of the team scored in double figures.

However, the Grizzlies were also fierce, Gasol had 22 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, Randolph had 28 points and 12 rebounds, Mike Miller had 15 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, and all six players on the team scored double-doubles, and rookie Conley had 10 points and 4 assists in his debut.

After the first game, no expert said that the Warriors could threaten the Suns and challenge for the championship.

Suns, Mavericks, Spurs, Grizzlies, Rockets five teams, who can the Warriors play? The Lakers, Jazz, Nuggets, and Timberwolves also made impressive debuts, winning their opponents in the first game.

It's more realistic for the Warriors to target the playoffs, and it's all up to hard work.

The brightest team in the East is the Magic, who beat the Bucks by 30 points in the first game to continue the strong preseason.

The Nets defeated the Bulls, the other Eastern teams lost, and the pattern of the West being strong and the East weak remained unchanged. According to the schedule, the Celtics will not appear until the fourth day, and I don't know why.

On November 1, the Suns beat the SuperSonics 116-89 on the road.

Guo Xu played casually for 30 minutes and got off work, scoring 17 points and 12 assists. Six members of the Suns team scored double-doubles, mainly chaotic battles, Guo Xu counterattacked and advanced to the frontcourt, and the players received the ball and went heads-up.

Roy blew up Supersonic Damion Wilkins and finished with 30 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists, playing well in two consecutive games, and seemed to be about to transform into an All-Star.

Durant had 27 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists in his debut, and Al Horford came off the bench with 10 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.

On the 2nd, the Suns lost back-to-back home games against the Lakers, completely losing the domineering 78 wins in the regular season last season.

Guo Xu's leg injury has long been healed, and his body has returned to his peak state, playing Fisher and Ellis has obvious advantages, cutting a big double-double of 38 points, 5 rebounds, 14 assists and 3 steals, with a shooting rate of 58% and a three-point shooting rate of 50%. Xiao Si and Roy each cut 20+, and the Suns still failed to win.

The reason for their loss was a defensive problem, with both sides playing a 109-118 high scoreline.

After the game, some experts believed that Guo Xu and Xiao Si had a problem with their mentality, the defense was not active enough, and the offensive selection was too casual. Guo Xu has a lot of behind-the-back passes in every game, empty passes, and he plays really beautifully, and he is frequently selected for the top five goals of the day, but there are more mistakes.

Guo Xu knows that if the "Si Guoyi" combination does not break up, he will not be able to win the regular season MVP again, and it is impossible to consider him with the urine nature of the league, and he will not be able to use "more Sun stars" as a reason at that time.

There are indeed a lot of stars in the team, and if Guo Xu competes for the scoring title, he will inevitably have to make more shots, which will affect the cooperation of the whole team, and may also lead to the dissatisfaction of the group of teammates who have been in the contract year. He has already won the 40+ scoring title, and no matter how hard he tries, it is difficult to challenge that statistic, which means little.

Therefore, Guo Xu doesn't take the regular season to heart at all, he just plays with a playful attitude, plays as he wants, passes the ball to his teammates with high difficulty, has the opportunity to throw it at people when counterattacking, and shoots two meters outside the three-point line is not a thing.

Xiao Si also has a similar mentality, it is difficult for him to compete for Guo Xu in terms of honor, and his mentality is very relaxed after four consecutive championships.

In this way, as long as Guo Xu, Xiao Si, and Thomas play together, the Suns' defense is full of holes.

They played such a wave, and it is not surprising that they lost. On the day off, the Suns suffered a two-game losing streak to the Jazz by four points on the road.

When the difference was only 1 point, Guo Xu passed the ball directly out of the baseline with a behind-the-back pass, giving the ball to the opponent for nothing, and then former Suns swingman Gordon Kirisek sealed his throat outside the three-point line.

The Suns' most active defensive man is Millsap, who is still a marginal man because he doesn't shoot well enough, and the third player at the No. 4 position can't change the atmosphere on the team.

This is the embodiment of human nature, so many teams are not good after three consecutive championships, and it is difficult to achieve four consecutive championships. Dynasty team managers will choose to make a "big change" to the roster, trade no champions, and have role players who want to win and core partners to build the team.

On October 6, the Suns easily defeated the underdog Bobcats by 21 points away to stop the decline, and on the 7th, they lost to the Nash-led Hawks by six points back-to-back.

The Suns started the season with a poor record of 3 wins and 3 losses, and the fans were confused, could it be that Marion played such a big role? The team can't do without him? But in the 2005-06 season, Marion didn't feel much after being reimbursed.

The Magic started the season 4-1, with Marion as the team's third-leading scorer, similar to his role with the Suns.

On November 9, the Suns continued their road trip, which was the focus of this round, and the opponent was last season's Eastern Conference champion Cavaliers, with 2 wins and 3 losses at the beginning.

Boozer was out of sorts and finished with 11 points and 12 rebounds on 3-of-11 shooting and 5-of-6 from the free-throw line. The Cavaliers are missing important scoring points, and the bench lineup is not strong, and the strongest bench is only Devin Brown, who was blown out by the Suns.

At 83-115 in the final game, the Cavaliers lost by 32 points at home.

James performed well at the US Championships and disappointed the fans when he returned. The depth of the Cavaliers' roster has declined, and almost no one is optimistic about them winning the championship or James making it to the Finals......
