Chapter 249: I can't figure it out

The Kings' first game of the season was on the road, and the victory surprised countless experts and scholars.

Judging by the urine of only 17 wins last season, the new Kings only need to win 17 more games to surpass last season's record.

But that's not the main thing, the maturity of the Kings in the opening game is the most eye-catching, in the words of Mark Jackson, the Kings are not new at all, and the style of play is solid enough to compete with the Spurs.

Brooks praised the Kings after the game.

"I think the teams in the West have chosen to ignore the Kings, but there's no denying that there's a scary team on the rise in the Pacific that will surprise everybody, and they even have the ability to change the current league landscape."

There are blowing, and there are belittled.

But compared to the unification at the beginning of the season, it is also good that there are more voices, at least Jove Patrick's home tickets for the first game are selling higher.

The Kings need to play a wave of away games first, which is fucked up, but that's what the belly team has to go through.

At the beginning of the game, in addition to playing the Thunder away, the Kings also need to play the Hornets away on October 30, and on October 31, Halloween Eve, the Kings also need to play the Spurs away from home.

Both teams are not easy to play.

The Spurs are not to mention the league's old powerhouse, the Hornets have always been a strong team in the West since the rise of Chris Paul, although the record last season was poor because of Chandler's injury, but now they have been improved, and the young and strong Okafor partnered with David West, becoming the new standard combination of Paul's career "Twin Towers".

Going away to challenge the Hornets, Wang thought about it tomorrow and let Chandler rest.

Chandler's injury was not 100% healed, and in the first game, he played 20 minutes, contributing 7 points and 6 rebounds, and his performance was decent.

Wang Ming knows in his heart what it means to be a healthy Chandler, so even if there is an impact on his performance at this time, he must wait until Chandler is fully recovered.

Chandler was deeply shaken by this move.

Most coaches in the NBA still regard coaching as an ordinary job, leading the team to play is their own performance, really from the perspective of players, it is easier said than done, and even some coaches will not easily replace the main force in order to ensure victory and lead by a large score to avoid being overturned.

As for injuries, then the injuries have affected the team's record, and it has nothing to do with the coach, and it just happens to be dumped again.

Chandler has a strong sense of responsibility, and Wang told him tomorrow that as long as he stays healthy, the position of the main force in the future will still be his, which makes the last stone in his heart fall to the ground and recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind.

So playing the Hornets, Wang will sacrifice the inside combination of Chris Bosh + Jason Thompson tomorrow.

Bosh has no problem, with a well-rounded game and a fierce rebounder, while Thompson is a little immature and is at a clear disadvantage against Okafor.

Bosh and Thompson are both skinny, and the two form a "bamboo pole" inside combination.

Playing the Hornets, the biggest problem for the Kings is that the point guard line is broken through by Paul.

Neither Jason Kidd nor Bennor Udri could guard against the fiery Chris Paul, who made countless fouls in a single game, making 15 free throws alone.

In the end, the Hornets defeated the visiting Kings 97-92 at home to win their first game of the season.

Paul scored 31 points and officially took over the scepter from Jason Kidd.

"Kidd couldn't stop Paul a year ago, and he can't stop it a year later." Mark Jackson jumped out to praise Paul MVP, this season must not be underestimated Queen Bee!

The NBA has always been like that, whoever wins blows.

Whoever loses, picks out all kinds of faults.

For example, the Kings, who lost to the Hornets in the second game, commentators pointed out,

"The core combat effectiveness of the Kings team is not strong, the key ball ability is missing, although the lineup seems to be balanced offensively and defensively, in fact, it lacks real combat effectiveness, it is okay to meet a weak team, and it is a new generation of pseudo-strong teams, in the West, it is difficult to enter the playoffs, let alone win the championship."

On October 31, the Kings played back-to-back Spurs.

The Spurs are fully fit and the troika is there.

The Kings are playing back-to-back, they are congenitally at a disadvantage, the players are a little tired, and it is even more difficult to play the Spurs.

No one is optimistic about the Kings winning, and even the Spurs' odds are as low as 1.05, and the Spurs can only earn 5 yuan if they invest 100 yuan to win, which is infinitely close to not earning.

But the king doesn't think so tomorrow.

He is too familiar with the Spurs, and he has played against the Spurs many times in the finals, as a representative of the league's tactical and team-oriented teams, Wang Ming has spent many days and nights studying Spurs tactics.

The Kings have the power to fight - as long as the outside X** shot is open.

So before the game started, Wang was pouring ecstasy soup into the players tomorrow, what Spurs are old, the GDP age adds up to nearly a hundred years old, what Spurs have a mediocre record this season, they have already lost to the Bulls before, as long as they make a decisive move and play rhythm, the Spurs can also win.

Maybe it was really influenced by Wang Mingming, in this game, the group of shooters that Wang Mingming hoarded broke out.

Starting from the rookie Cosby, to Afflaro, Nocioni, and Garcia, these players of the Kings shot accurately one by one, and in the end, even Artest scored 3 points, and the three-pointers rained down on the Spurs' home court, smashing the Spurs and the fans together.

At this time, the Spurs, Popovich is already thinking about transformation, but it has not completely changed, it is still a traditional strong team, mainly on the inside line and mid-distance, focusing on steady and steady play, waiting for you to make mistakes.

This new style of play of the Kings is unheard of, and many times, as soon as the half of the court is over, the players are not out of position, and the Kings players "snap" a three-point shot.

It's okay to vote, but isn't it a pure waste of opportunity if you can't vote?

The referees didn't do much to help the Spurs at home, and in the end, the Kings beat the Spurs 113-101, beating the league's top team in back-to-back games for the first time.

This is so surprising that no commentator or celebrity dares to speak, and the king likes to play cards out of common sense too much.

After a few games, the Kings scoring points are very scattered, often six or seven or eight people score double-doubles, Chris Bosh, as the team's current core leader, has not taken more than 20 shots in a game, and the average scoring per game is only 19.7 points, which is a few points less than last year in the Raptors.

Wang Tomorrow is not surprised at all, Kidd is still there, Atay and Bosh are at their peak, these three people are highly rated, the Kings attack is slightly worse, but the defense has unlimited potential, and Wang Tomorrow relies on the outside shooter group and the magic ball theory, and suddenly makes up for the weakness of the lack of offense.

If no one specializes in it in a short period of time, the Kings are a strong team with a balanced offense and defense, and they will not be much weaker than the 76ers last season.
