Chapter 335: Rookies Peck at Each Other?
Because this is the first time WALL-E has led the team alone, but with Oscar's escort, it is quite comfortable in the face of the Phoenix Suns who are not at the core.
The Lakers' starting lineup actually appeared in the usual rotation, and it used to appear when the score was leading, so everyone didn't pay much attention to the specific performance.
For WALL-E, this is also his chance. If he has been growing up under the wings of Zhang Yi and Robert, he, the third master, will be eliminated by others sooner or later.
After all, there are not many functional interior lines in the league, but they are not a scarce resource, and Vali will have to perform more strongly if he wants to stay in the Lakers for a long time and play a major role.
In this game, the Suns are still attacking instead of defending, and point guard Murray was very happy when he heard that the two cores were rested on the opposite side, and he thought to himself that if he led the team to defeat the Lakers, who are now undefeated, then who would tell him about his water?
Murray still has a point guard quotient, and a simple analysis is that there is still hope for this game. Once this kind of self-confidence is generated, it will also invisibly affect their performance.
The other four Suns have long complained about the sophomore, because Murray's penchant for shooting is too unusual. If he scores a few threes per game, then people will have nothing to say, how to say that the three-point weapon is not effective, as a point guard you have to have at least three points.
But this Murray did the opposite, neither likes to break through, even if he plays a counterattack, it is the end of a layup. If you don't like to dunk this kind of performance, you don't have to shoot a few three-point shots.
The Suns are ostensibly bombarded with an army, no matter how much Murray naturally hates three-pointers, when Riley was on the court, as long as there was an opportunity, Murray would also hand it over to him, but now it can't work, so now the Suns' outside shot has taken a sharp turn.
Whether it's an open three-point or a chasing three-pointer, the Buddhist point guard doesn't like to shoot. If you put him in the 90s, he might be able to make a name for himself.
After all, this Murray is 2.01 meters tall, weighs 95 kilograms, and has tendon muscles that can play from the No. 1 position to the No. 3 position, but a bombardment team will give him the opportunity to play on his back, so no one knows his true strength.
Of course, the Suns' poor record is also because the head coach is too persistent, and it is clear that Murray is more suitable for playing positions, and if he plays well, he may even become the next 'glove' Payton, after all, there are really few men who can play the best defensive player at point guards.
In contrast, Oscar's defense is not eye-catching, and he is able to steal because of his quick brain and experience.
Murray is definitely a talented player. Compared to the last game of the Jazz Big Four, he is much more valuable, although he does not have the title of best rookie, but the bonus of the best rookie team plus the best defensive three team still makes many managers look at this black young player.
In fact, Gianna has also been in contact with the Suns in the offseason, and in her opinion, if the Lakers' new roster can add this second-year defensive strongman, and he has vision, he can organize defensive counterattacks and play fast offense without possession.
When rebuilding the Lakers, the discerning Lakers female manager first fell in love with Murray and discussed it with the Suns in depth, but the other party was simply a lion with his mouth wide open, and he asked Robert and Vali plus next year's draft picks.
Of course, this touched Gianna's bottom line, on the one hand, she couldn't offend Zhang Yi, and on the other hand, she also valued the potential of Robert and Vali.
The strength of the brown bear Sanjie did not disappoint her. But the asking price of the Suns uniform team directly led Gianna to pull them into the blacklist.
If it weren't for missing Murray, the Lakers wouldn't have chosen Oscar, who has no experience and average overall strength. It's just that now it seems that this veteran can at least make way for this newcomer completely and steadily, which is already very precious.
Zhang Yi sat on the sidelines, this was the first time for him to take a break in this kind of rotation, although he felt uncomfortable, but being able to carefully analyze Wali's current problems so closely is also very important for his brother's future improvement.
And although Wacker let them rest in turn, he also arranged a task, which is to look at the problems of the Lakers in this game, and then point them out at the meeting after returning to Los Angeles......
This is supposed to be the job of a head coach, or at least an assistant coach. Now the two of them are sitting on the bench resting and can't do anything, after all, the good things are taken by themselves, and they can't really do any work when they come.
Zhang Yi, who has watched countless superstar videos, does not have a headache for this request, after all, Wang Lung has taught him how to analyze the team and interpret the situation on the field since he was a child, so even if he has not worked as a coach, Zhang Yi is not worthy.
If the highlight of this game is how Murray leads the Suns to play a fast-break counterattack, it is better to say whether Wali can play a good stat when the two generals are away.
The Lakers have won enough games to distance themselves from the Golden State Warriors and the San Antonio Spurs in second and third place. Therefore, even if they lose this game, it will not have much impact on the future standings.
"Let's see the Lakers' three-team and Suns' two-team matchup." The on-site commentary deliberately joked like this. It's just that his description is more appropriate.
The Suns without Riley are missing the most terrifying three-point weapon, and the Lakers without Zhang Yi and Robert are the eagles with broken wings......
As soon as the game began, Vali fought for the Lakers to get the ball. Oscar possessed the ball and quickly advanced past half-time. His eyes were looking for his teammates' runs.
Because in the past, it was Wali to block and then split, Oscar could choose to divide the ball or find Zhang Yi and Robert to reorganize, and he became a shooter who was ready to catch and shoot while running.
But with two missing middle organization points, Oscar can only pull Vali up, and then quickly distribute to the basket after going down, Wali's singles ability can only be regarded as average, fortunately, the Suns' interior line is not very good, so in the first offense, Wali staggered to put the basketball in the basket.
Seeing the live commentary of this ball, he also laughed, but he didn't laugh excitedly, in his opinion, this lame basket back playing technique really can't be put on the table.
Vali is still too much worse than the rest of the brothers...... The voice also filled the minds of countless Suns home fans.
Of course, Zhang Yi and the others know Wali's strength, although this ball is ugly, but his card position is actually very accurate, as for the action looks ugly, the most reasonable explanation is that he is too nervous.
"One more goal!" Oscar also patted Vali's ass at the right time, "Relax, you're strong!" ”
