This showdown between the leaders of the East and West did not attract much attention. After all, without Thomas, they are not optimistic about ordinary fans except for the support of local fans in New York.

In addition, Zhang Yi's current performance has a tendency to replace the second person in the Thomas League. The newcomer is now menacing, and who let the 'rush' Thomas himself suffer an injury.

Zhang Yi's offense has come up with the opponent's average data per game, coupled with his better rebounding and stealing performance, and his current performance is indeed worthy of the audience's recognition.

There is also a highlight game on this day. That is, the Golden State Warriors, who returned to second place in the West under the leadership of Curry Jr., played against the Brooklyn Nets, who had just lost to the Lakers.

The reason why this game has attracted more attention is mainly because Curry Jr. is in good shape right now, and it can be seen that his hidden injury has not had much impact other than affecting him on the court that day.

And this season is still his retirement tour, and he also flew to Brooklyn in New York, which is not much different from the Lakers' itinerary.

Returning to the game, people are also concerned about whether the superstar of Valanda, a super-newcomer, can be set an example for the superstar in the present, even the strongest point guard in history.

When he officially faced Zhang Yi for the first time, his performance was not bad. But because of the black spot at the end, the audience was not very satisfied.

But now his body has clearly recovered, although it cannot be said that Curry Jr. has returned to his peak form. But against the super point guard of the same position, Valanda, people also expect him to give his best performance.

The basketball god of this era must not be defeated by a rookie, and this is the voice of the fans who have been fans of him for so many years.

Injuries may change a lot of things, but Curry Jr.'s strength won't fade. What people want to see is that the greatest point guard can teach the next generation to be a real powerhouse.

Valanda was also very excited at the pre-match media conference. If you lose to Zhang Yi two days ago, this can only be regarded as a failure of fate.

They had a very good situation at one point, which also shows that the Nets still have a lot of room for improvement.

After the adjustment, Valanda also believes that the team has become stronger. Even against the defending champions, you can play your own style of basketball.

Curry Jr. is not unaware of Valanda. Because if you want to say that Zhang Yi is your successor, everyone still sees the dominance that he may have in the future.

But if you look at the most similar to Xiao Curry in this batch of newcomers, in fact, it is still necessary to say that he was invincible from childhood to college, until he met Zhang Yi's Valanda.

Although the Grand Duke player has become his bitter master, it is even likely that he will become a lifelong enemy. Curry Jr. doesn't think so. Because Valanda's talent is just as amazing.

If it weren't for Zhang Yi's current limelight, he would have overpowered Valanda too much. The current super all-round player will surely receive more praise as well.

This handover ceremony of the old and new top point guards is the reason why people are paying attention to this game. Win or lose aside. The meaning of the competition is different.

If the New York Knicks could come up with their best lineup, they might have drawn the audience's attention, but now it's clearly not possible......

Although it is not like the two offensive masters of Thomas and Zhang Yi after the preseason. But since the team's boss missed the game due to injury, Thomson has a lot of hope to make a comeback.

At the beginning of the game, Vali put the ball in Oscar's hands.

It's just that the Lakers point guard was recognized by New York quarterback Xiao Hua when he was looking for Robert with a horizontal pass. The Chinese player who originally played as a substitute for Thomas is average, but his sense of steals is very good.

Oscar suffered a dark loss, so he immediately counter-robbed on the spot, but he let go of the New York point guard star Brad, who he should have defended the most.

After breaking the ball, Xiao Hua immediately played a pass with Brad.

The two have worked together to defeat Oscar and Robert, although it is a two-on-two counterattack, but the quality of Robert and Oscar's pursuit is not high.

Add to that a super point guard and a fast-legged quarterback who focuses on steals and counterattacks, and they have a lot of experience, so they directly played a back pass to assist the layup.

Naturally, Brad's flashy skills won't let go of this opportunity, and if it weren't for the chase to ensure that the ball must be scored, he would even want to play a board assist......

That's the strength of New York's No. 1 point guard. If it was Thomas's partner, his idea would be bolder, Xiao Hua's physical fitness and 'crazy grab' are fundamentally two levels.

The Lakers were beaten back by the ball at the beginning of the game, which was also unexpected by Wacker. After all, it's their forte.

With Thomas, the offense will be even more frenzied, so they must take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of their opponents.

Especially for the young people in the team, if you really want to go to the finals. Then this psychological advantage may be a big help.

Yibian fought again, and Oscar made a mistake in the opening countdown, so the passing was naturally more cautious.

This ball he found Zhang Yi, who shook after the singles star Thomson Kozen. Although he is at a disadvantage in height, Zhang Yisheng is fast and flexible.

That's what young people have in common, a nimble back-to-back jumper with a sideways shift. No matter how long Thomson's arms are and how good the bounce is, it won't help, so he can only watch the ball draw a beautiful arc in the air and hollow into the frame!

Zhang Yi had a good opening touch, and WACKER also applauded. Because of playing an old Jianghu like an opponent, a little weakness will be infinitely magnified.

The only thing that can be done is to keep attacking and keep scoring goals to establish an advantage. As long as the opponent's spirit is exhausted, the probability of the Lakers winning will increase.

Instead of playing a quick counterattack this time, you get to the ground and then put Thomson up against Robert who is on misplaced defense after the pick-and-roll......

These two huge physical differences, Thomson naturally threw with his hands open. It's just that the moment he shot this ball, he felt that he was short.

So before others could react, he rushed directly into the interior and pressed Wali to grab the rebound and succeed in the second attack.

This kind of reaction speed is something that only experienced veterans can do.

The New Yorkers opened with a good rhythm, and the crowd erupted in waves of cheers.

On the other hand, the Lakers' other positions have not been opened, and they can only rely on Zhang Yi's ball-by-ball singles. This is definitely not good news.

WACKER called a timeout. It can be seen that it is difficult for Oscar to play too well in front of Brad, an opponent of the same type. So he had to make a substitution to get Robert to the No. 1 position again.
