……
After winning the first game, the Bobcats received all kinds of praise and praise from major media outlets.
Kevin Garnett continues to fit in perfectly, Chris Paul is also a significant improvement from last season, and the Bobcats' offense has slowed down the tempo but played more smoothly.
Everything about the bobcat seems to be moving for the better.
And on the Facebook page, there was a lot of talk about the Bobcats' easy win in the first game of the season.
"The Bobcats started the season with such a good win over the Pacers, they are already one of the two best teams in the league!"
"The Pacers are not a weak team, they have Jermaine O'Neal and Stephen Jackson, and the Bobcats can easily beat the Pacers, which means that their strength is already one level higher than the Pacers!"
"What's it like to be above the Pacers? That's already on par with rockets! ”
"So, it's no problem to say that the Bobcats are one of the two best teams this season, and maybe the only one who can stop the Rockets from winning any more championships is the Bobcats."
At the beginning of the season, the Bobcats were tasked with ending the Rockets' dynasty.
……
Qiao Hai hadn't seen that far yet, and at the beginning of the season, he was still thinking about the present.
In the second game of the new season, the Bobcats traveled to challenge the Grizzlies.
This game has gained countless attention, and Qiao Hai fought against his old club again, but the game really started, and the suspense was not big.
Maddie is injured, and Shaquille O'Neal, who is almost 35 years old, is no longer a superstar, and now he is an ordinary All-Star at best.
The big shark is already in serious decline, and even if he can play at a supergiant level, his minor injuries will increase.
Maddie also has a lot of minor injuries and illnesses, but fortunately, Wang Zhizhi has taken on part of the offensive firepower, and the Grizzlies are not worse.
But basically, this Grizzly Bear is equivalent to half Maddie and half O'Neal, and a peak Wang Zhizhi to lead the team.
If Jerry West can't make some changes, the Grizzlies may even miss the playoffs for the new season because the West is just too scary.
The Grizzlies in the new season, if they can't guarantee the health of Maddy and O'Neal, have little advantage over the Nuggets with Daco Milicic and Ruhr Deng and the Clippers with Elton Brand.
This game was a case in point, as the Bobcats directly blew up the Grizzlies, leading by 27 points at halftime.
In the end, the score of the two teams was 101:68, the Bobcats won by 33 points, and the General Motors Arena was silent.
No fans booed, and no fans cheered Qiao Hai, the Grizzlies' fiasco in this game seemed to have made Vancouver fans a little confused, is this still the Grizzly Bears they are familiar with?
And after the game, the Vancouver Business Daily reported that "In the fifth season of Qiao Hai's departure, this Grizzlies finally lost all the assets left by Qiao Hai!" ”
"Now, this Grizzlies are not Qiao Hai's Grizzlies at all, and in the next few seasons, the Grizzlies, who have made the playoffs for seven consecutive seasons, may also end their record of consecutive playoff games!"
……
The Bobcats beat the Grizzlies by a big score, which really surprised the North American experts.
Then, on Nov. 4, the Bobcats returned home, back-to-back against the Cavaliers.
The Cavaliers draft pick in the hands of the Bobcats has already been sent to the Timberwolves, so there is one less reason why the Bobcats must beat the Cavaliers in the new season.
But this does not mean that the Bobcats can lose to the Cavaliers, on the contrary, Qiao Hai knows that this season is a season for the Cavaliers to explode, LeBron James's fourth season in the NBA, and in the original history, the Cavaliers reached the Finals in the playoffs.
Therefore, Qiao Hai knows very well that the Cavaliers should be the strongest opponent in the East this season for the Bobcats.
In this game, although it was a back-to-back battle, it lost suspense early because of the previous game, so Qiao Hai still put out a set of main lineups.
The starters were Paul and Michael Reid in the backcourt, Andre Iguodala and Kevin Garnett up front, and center Kendrick Perkins.
This set of starters is good both offensively and defensively, and the Bobcats execute the defensive strategy of last season's playoffs against the Cavaliers and the next few games, Andre Iguodala put a step to prevent James' breakaway, and only guarded James's right-handed breakaway, and Garnett's help defense on the inside.
In the first quarter, the Cavaliers who defended the Bobcats only scored 16 points, and James was defended on 1 of 5 shots, and only got 2 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists.
However, James's self-adjustment is also very fast, in the second quarter, he increased his breakthroughs, and made fouls on the inside, and James still had a lot of whistles during the Cavaliers 1.0 period, otherwise he would not have gotten a black number as a godson.
After a series of kills, James had 8 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist in the second quarter.
At halftime, the Bobcats were 56-38 and led the Cavaliers by 18 points.
It can be said that after half the game, the suspense of this game has disappeared for more than half of the time.
Hoop Sports still has a broadcast on this game, and the commentary team is Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith, who have been poached by TNT.
Regarding the results of the half, Kenny Smith commented: "Qiao Hai once again proved that he can lock up LeBron James from the tactical end, the Bobcats led by 18 points at halftime, and LeBron James only scored 10 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists on 2-of-9 shooting, and 2 turnovers, which is a clear proof!" ”
In the second half, the Bobcats swept all the way and won the game with 102:88 directly.
After the first three games, Bobcat's three opponents were not weak, but they won a wave of three consecutive victories very easily!
