As soon as the regular season was met, the league suddenly found that compared with last season, many teams were still quite different.

Offseason trades have changed the rosters of most teams in the league, and the only ones that have really changed little from last season are the Lakers and Celtics, which are almost full-fledged teams.

Even players like Spurs, with the exception of GDP, are changing all the time.

The Kings are even more unrecognizable from top to bottom.

But the Kings have worked very well, with three away games, two wins and one loss, which is enough to make fans hopeful for the new season.

After a few games, the Kings returned home.

Home opener, vs. Memphis Grizzlies.

It was the first home game of the season, and it ended up selling more than 18,000 tickets, the best sales of the opener in decades in the small arena of Arco.

For this reason, the Marouf brothers specially convened a meeting to perform a performance of Jof and Wang Mingming, who had made such achievements after taking power.

On this day, the grizzly bear visited.

Before the start of the game, Marc Gasol ran to say hello to Wang Tomorrow.

I haven't seen Mark Gasol for a long time, and the young man is even thinner than Wang Mingming imagined, when he first went to the 76ers, Mark Gasol was much fatter.

Marc Gasol still doesn't have any muscles, but he looks bright, and his beard is full of Eastern European strong man style, which looks charming and wild.

"I'm familiar with Memphis as well, and I've got more practice playing here."

Strictly speaking, last season was only the first full season for Mark Gasol, and Mark Gasol quickly established himself with the Grizzlies, averaging 11.9 points, 7.4 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 30 minutes per game.

And Marc Gasol is very expressive on the court, and the fans in Memphis love him.

'As your brother said, Mark, you're a smart player, you know how to play to your strengths, you played really well last season, I saw it all.'

"Coach, thanks to your teaching."

A little embarrassed to be praised by Wang Mingming, Mark Gasol touched his head.

"The Grizzlies are very strong, I think your roster structure is young and dynamic, and the future is promising." Wang patted Marc Gasol on the shoulder and laughed.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then the main players of both sides appeared on the stage.

On the Kings' side, Tyson Chandler is back again, and the Kings will line up Kidd, DeRozan, Artest, and Boshka Tyson Chandler tomorrow.

On the Grizzlies' side, from No. 1 to No. 5, they are Mike Conley, O.J. Mayo, Rudy Gay, Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol.

The Grizzlies changed three head coaches last season, and in the end, Lionel Hollins emerged victorious, became the head coach of the Grizzlies, and gained the trust of management, and continued to coach the Grizzlies this season.

In fact, according to last season's record, Hollins did not do well, and finally handed over a 13-26 record.

With Hollins under pressure and the Grizzlies having high hopes for the season, Memphis fans are watching to see if they can make a breakthrough or not, which will be the subject of his final research.

It is true that the talent is high, but whether it can be transformed into strength is still up for debate.

Both sides have their own considerations, and the curtain of the game slowly opens.

"King, there are many others who are coming for you." Assistant coach Michael Curry said with some envy.

"The local Chinese are here, and your current market appeal is equal to an all-star player." Mike Dunlap has been with the Kings for many years and sees something different at a glance.

This is true, with Wang Mingming's prestige, many Chinese are naturally proud of it, before in Philadelphia, now on the West Coast, there are more Chinese, which is another reason why the Ma'louf brothers are willing to pay his top coach salary.

Wang Mingming smiled faintly at this, he was actually very proud in his heart, no matter where he was, the hometown in the traditional Chinese concern is deep-rooted, so in a foreign country, the Chinese are more united, and the support is certainly not something that ordinary coaches can have.

On the court, the Kings and Grizzlies completed the first wave of offense.

Neither side made it.

Kidd stretched out his right hand to command, Artest came around to catch the ball, turned on the flank, and picked Rudy Gay inside.

Guy is the core object of the Grizzlies' training, and his strength is outstanding among small forwards, but compared with a beast like Artest, it is still a quarter behind, and this confrontation "rubs" to the basket.

Fortunately, at this time, Randolph and Gasol both came to make up for it, and the three of them surrounded Artest.

In the midst of Artest's blocking, he hurriedly dropped the ball and made a mistake.

"When Ron was holding the ball, he really sweated for him." Michael Curry smiled wryly, Artest is not strong at protecting the ball, and attacking with the ball can cause great damage, but it is also possible to dig holes for himself.

Wang Mingming knew it in his heart and replied to him: "Now that the season has just begun, the young people in the team have not grown up, and he needs to attack as an arrow, to carry the team forward, and when the player matures, I will consider reducing the number of times he attacks with the ball, so that he can focus more on defense." ”

As soon as Artest made a mistake, the Grizzlies picked up the basketball, and they were not in a hurry to attack, slowly waiting for everyone to pass the half court and fall to attack.

Wang knows that's the style of Hollins, the traditional coach who is ready to build the Grizzlies into a defensive powerhouse.

The main thing about a defensive powerhouse is to control the tempo, and Mike Conley does a good job of that.

Mike Conley faced Jason Kidd's tight defense, and a beautiful turn at the top of the arc made a beautiful turn to bypass Gasol's block, and the vision became extremely open for a moment.

In the low post, new signing Zach Randolph asks for the ball.

Randolph was a major player for the Grizzlies offseason, and they withstood the pressure of public opinion to summon the "team cancer" Randolph from the big city to Memphis.

Surprisingly, Randolph seemed to like the city of Memphis, and after he came, he praised the good environment and simple people, which was worth serving.

True or false aside, Randolph was very deep to reach the ball and turned abruptly.

Fat and muscles exert force together, and the huge body turns, but the tips of the fingers are extremely delicate and gently picked.

"Oops!"

Chris Bosh was taken aback and was overwhelmed by Randolph.

It is said that Randolph has a good rhythm in this ball, and there is no reason not to turn around and hook the hand, but after throwing it, the ball is deflected, and the force is just a little smaller, and it smashes in the front of the basket.

"Stuck in the slot first!"

Kidd let out a loud shout, and before he could be reminded, Randolph's huge reminder pressed over like Tarzan, magically jumped out of the height of three matchboxes, and then took a more advantageous position than Bosh, and in the middle of Bosh's two arms, stretched out his fat big hand, and lightly touched it.

The basketball bounces back and is put back into the basket.
