After a seven-game winning streak, the Nets began rushing to Los Angeles to prepare to face the Lakers.

Compared with last season, the Lakers' roster is basically unchanged, even if 'Zen Master' Jackson doesn't like Glen Rice very much, but he still can't trade him.

Although the main lineup has not changed, due to the arrival of Jackson, there have been many changes to the Lakers, such as the triangle offense brought by Jackson!

Whether it's a triangle or a Princeton offense, it's a well-known fact that they're derived from pick-and-roll tactics.

The triangle attack consists of three players on one side who make up a triangle and a "two-player game" on the other side.

Depending on the defense, the triangle offense will have a variety of responses, unlike those fixed routines, which are full of free movement in the offense.

However, the triangle attack is not a complete free attack, it is a structural system that requires precise spacing and positioning. Every player has to know every position on the pitch, which makes it difficult for anyone to fully understand all the tactical variations of the triangle attack and then target it.

As defenders are pinned down by the constant movement of offensive players, the most skilled players on the offensive side can gain an advantage in the opposition over time. The triangle low post offense can maximize the use of excellent low post players, especially low post players with some passing ability.

The core of the Lakers' triangle offense is naturally O'Neal, and the other two are Kobe Bryant, who has excellent single-player ability, and Glenn Rice, who has excellent projection ability, which is naturally powerful.

In fact, the reason why Jackson wants to trade Glen Rice is not that Glen Rice is not suitable for the triangle offense as he said, but because he wants to challenge the position of Jerry West, the general manager of the Lakers, and then gain more power.

On the evening of November 26, 1999, the Lakers sat at home and ushered in the Nets challenge.

In the previous games, the Lakers had a 9-4 record, while the Nets, who had played one game less than the Lakers, had a 9-3 record after this wave of seven straight wins.

Since Jordan's second retirement, the pattern of the entire league has shown a trend of being strong in the west and weak in the east.

Even though the league took measures to let Chi Liang and some western stars 'cross east', it did not slow down this trend.

In the latest NBA official power rankings, among the top ten teams, Western teams alone occupy seven places, namely the Trail Blazers, Lakers, Spurs, Jazz, Suns, SuperSonics and Kings.

In addition, the Timberwolves are also in 11th place.

Poor Eastern team with only the Pacers, the Heat and the Knicks, the runner-up of last year's 'Black Eight Miracle'. As for the Nets, although they have won a wave of seven consecutive wins, there are weak teams that suddenly break out every year, and if they want to enter the top ten, they will have to observe for a while.

However, Nets fans believe that this season's Nets are already on the path to a revival, and although they are slightly lower in the rankings, they do not fully reflect the strength of the team. After all, in terms of record, they are on par with the Lakers.

The Nets have not said anything about the outside world's evaluation, hoping to win eight straight games at the Staples Center.

Staples Center is a multi-purpose gymnasium, officially opened on October 17, 1999, completely in accordance with the design of modern basketball professional stadiums, the cost of 380 million US dollars, can accommodate nearly 20,000 spectators Staples Arena has 12 entrances, three levels of grandstand can clearly see everything on the court from any angle, has become one of the main sports facilities in the greater Los Angeles area, not long ago was awarded the title of "Stadium of the Year".

At each entrance to the arena, there is a huge "Forward Lakers!" "Banners and electronic display boards are constantly flipping the glorious history of the Lakers winning championships and entering the Finals, as well as introducing current Lakers stars, such as O'Neal, Harbour, Kobe, and Glen Rice.

In addition, there is a statue of Jerry West standing outside the arena, and statues of Abdul-Jabbar, magician and legendary commentator Zike Hearn have not yet been erected.

The players' locker room, like most arenas, is located on the lowest level of the basement. It's both a place for player reporters and a showcase for Lakers history.

In the short aisle of the Lakers' locker room, there are pictures that record historical moments.

Of course, there are also photos of Lakers celebrities, and if you want to talk about each team, the most famous ones are naturally the Lakers, such as Chamberlain, West, Baylor, Magic, Abdul-Jabbar, Goodrich, Worthy and Jamal Wilkes.

Ever since Jerry Buss bought the Lakers in 1979, entertainment stars have worked hand in hand with the Purple and Gold, such as Nicholson, Tom Hanks, and movie superstars, who are Lakers fans.

In Los Angeles, entertainment and sports are the city's two pillar industries, contributing more than $50 billion to the city's economy each year. Hollywood is the first to see the entertainment industry in Los Angeles, and the Lakers are the NBA's Lakers at the top of the sports industry.

As for the Clippers, compared to the Lakers, there is no doubt that they want to be huge.

Hollywood stars are willing to cheer for the Lakers, in addition to the factor of loving basketball, there is also an important premise, that is, the Lakers play exciting and good-looking, watching the Lakers' ball has face and can expand the audience.

In addition, the Lakers attach great importance to entertainment stars, and the combination of entertainment and basketball has been the Lakers' long-term market strategy.

"Let the fans worship the stars, let the stars worship us!" The above passage comes from Lakers owner Jerry Buss, and it was also his strategy when he bought the Lakers, and after so many years, judging from the results, Buss is undoubtedly right.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we're meeting again, and yes, I'm your old friend Zike Hearn. It's likely to be a tough game, and with the Nets on a seven-game winning streak, we have to stop their momentum. ”

Before the game began, Lakers legend commentator Zike Hearn began to warm up for the game, which is what he has been doing all these years.

Zike Hearn, a former AAU basketball player, first served as a commentator for the Lakers in 1961 and has continued to do so until now, with a glorious record of streaming more than 3,000 NBA games. Known as the "Voice of the Lakers"!

In 38 years, from Elgin Baylor to Jerry West, from "Magic" Johnson to "Skyhook" Abdul-Jabbar, and now O'Neal, he has witnessed almost all the glory moments of the Lakers, and his imaginative humorous commentary has made Lakers fans further appreciate the charm of the game. He sees the Lakers as his own child, proud of the team when it plays well, and hated it when the team plays badly.

"Without further ado, let's welcome the starters with the warmest voice!"

Under Zike Hearn's passionate voice, the stadium lights dimmed instantly, and the bright spotlights focused on the entrance of the players' tunnel.
