The Sacramento Kings, the fifteen-man roster, is out!

"This lineup is a bit powerful!"

The date is October 27, 2013.

The 2013-2014 NBA regular season has officially begun!

"It's too thick, even if it's a little bit of a crow's mouth, and someone is injured in the starting position, the players in the second squad can come up at any time. The No. 2 lineup had injuries, and the No. 3 lineup and the number of swingmen were enough. The Kings' summer reshuffle seems to have paid off! ”

The sleep train, the first game of the King's new season, is about to start when it comes to hosting the underdog Bucks.

For the Kings, who have just changed their blood, the schedule at the beginning of the new season should be said to be quite good. With the exception of a game against the Thunder in early November, a game against Philadelphia in mid-November, and a game against the Heat at the end of November, the Kings have few playoff-level opponents in their first month of schedule.

And the league is really giving face, with the Kings having such an easy schedule, the number of back-to-backs and the number of away games are also very small. Long-distance road trips don't exist until the middle of the season.

This kind of schedule advantage is undoubtedly the best time for the Kings to run in the lineup.

And after the stunned super trade in the summer, the final effect of the King's new roster is about to be shown in front of everyone's eyes.

At this time, if you look at the Kings' lineup, anyone can't help but give a thumbs up and say "high, really high!" to the Kings' management. ”

"I really didn't expect that so early, before the end of last season, the new management of the Kings team had not even officially taken over the team, and they had already begun to think about the next roster composition plan."

On the side of the commentary stage, the veteran commentator Albert sighed: "Look at the perfection of the current Kings lineup, we don't predict what their record will be in the new season, and we don't discuss whether they are making or losing money, just saying that the feeling of this lineup is simply the gospel of obsessive-compulsive disorder, which makes an old man like me cry!" ”

"That's right, now that this small ball style in the NBA is prevalent to such a point, it is really impressive that the Kings can still assemble such a beautiful and neat lineup."

Reggie Miller, as a guest commentator and Albert's old partner, nodded: "In every position, there are at least two players." And from the No. 1 position to the No. 5 position, there are swing people as back-ups to deal with various emergency situations. If Stevenson is counted as the third bench at the No. 1 position - of course, he must be the substitute solution at the No. 2 and No. 3 positions - then the Kings' third lineup is actually a perfect lineup that can directly play on the court, which is really amazing. ”

"Yes, three sets of lineups, seamless, this season's Kings, the main players can get a lot of rest, should be quite a lot." Albert said: "The specific effect depends on the performance of the court. Before the start of the season, many fans were worried about whether the Kings' lineup and Phil Jackson's triangle offense could be perfectly integrated? The Kings have a whole lineup, well......"

"Haha, it's inconvenient for you to say, I'll come here, I'm a guest anyway, it doesn't matter~!" Miller understood what Albert meant, and said with a smile: "The king's lineup is strong, but the overall ball quotient is really worrying." Except for O'Neal Jr., Granger, Thomas Jr., and Speight, the rest of the players' personalities are too strong and distinct, and it is still unknown whether they are willing to follow Phil Jackson's tactics! ”

"Hehehe, that's what it means, thank you Reggie." Albert glanced at Reggie Miller gratefully and continued: "The key to the triangle offense is space, but after all, we are not the ones who have run through the triangle offense, and we have no right to speak, and we don't count if the Kings can adapt to the triangle offense." So today, we've got a guest of honor, and he's definitely got the right to speak. ”

Next to the two, the third person greeted the camera lens, and at first glance, the fans thought Will Smith was coming.

"Welcome Lakers veteran, Mr. Key, Big Heart Killer – Robert Horry !!"

"Hello everyone, hahaha!!" Robert Horry, who is really a wonderful flower in history, one of the originators of "usually pretending to be dead in life-and-death battles", plus a star look, has always been very popular with fans.

Well, maybe except for the Suns fans......

"Robert, you've worked with Phil for a long time, and you have a pretty thorough understanding of triangle offense. I've also heard a report that says Phil Jackson himself admitted that of all the players who are new to the triangle offense, the person who understands it the fastest is you. Albert asked, "Combined with the Kings' lineup, what do you think of the degree of run-in between the Kings and the triangle offense in the new season?" Nice? Or is it worrisome?? ”

"Haha, I've won a prize~!" Horry laughed: "If you want me to say, the Kings play triangle offense, there are three problems. ”

"Oh? Which three? Reggie Miller asked.

"Number one, there are not enough pitchers." "The triangle attack needs two super heads-up points, and we all know that we can launch an unstoppable heads-up attack in the waist or low position. And in terms of the configuration of the Kings, the cousin is undoubtedly competent. If Wei Shao can improve this summer, he should have no problem. ”

As he spoke, Horry's eyes changed: "But in the triangle offense, the most critical issue is not how to play alone, or who will play alone. It's about how to create singles opportunities, which we often say, space. ”

"That's true, I've heard that the most critical point of the triangle attack is the word space. The space between the players and the players, the space between the players and the ball, the space between the offensive areas on both sides of the pitch...... These spatial grasps are the hardest part. Reggie Miller nodded.

"Yes, and where does the space come from? Does it come out of thin air? Certainly not. Horry said: "Space is pulled out by a large number of pitchers. ”

"The Kings have a lot of pitchers." Albert was puzzled: "It's not an exaggeration for my cousin to be the league's No. 1 pitcher, right?" Will Young, George, Stevenson, Beasley, Thomas Jr., and even Green all throw threes, isn't that enough to open up space? ”

"It's not a big threat." Horry shook his head and said: "Among the players you just listed, except for my cousin, the rest of the people's three-point ability is not a match, and they are not stable enough. Thomas Jr. is accurate, but too short and too difficult to get out of space. George is not bad, but that alone is certainly not enough. When your pitcher group can't continue to catch the pot, can't continue to attract the opponent's defensive attention, and open up space for the superstar's singles, the triangle offense is equivalent to failure! ”

"There's some truth to that." The other two nodded, convinced.

"The second problem is defense." Horry continued: "Phil's team, it's not as flashy and devastating as it seems, it's all superstar business, and it has nothing to do with us role players. The thing he emphasises the most is not offense and space, but defensive intensity. ”

"The King's defense is not weak." Albert said: "George, Green, Stevenson, McGee, Bynum, Granger, O's, these are all defensive masters, what's wrong?" ”

"Cousin can't do it, Wei Shao can't do it." Horry hit the nail on the head and said: "What is the core of the triangle offense, do you know?" In other words, what is the most desired outcome of a triangular offensive? ”

"Uh...... Singles space? Reggie Miller asked.

"No, psychological crushing." The moment Horry's eyes sank, Reggie Miller actually trembled physically and mentally, unconsciously, remembering the years when he had fought against the Bulls and Lakers.

"It's not enough to crush only on the offensive end, the opponent also has stars, and there are also unreasonable guys, and the opponent's hand is coming, and it can also take away the game in waves. Why are you better than the other party? Is it just the efficiency of the triangle offense? Horry shook his head and said: "It's not enough, in Phil's team, the players who execute the triangle offensive low axis and the scorer role in the weak-side two-player game must have the ability to lock the opponent's ace and completely crush it on the defensive end!" ”

This is the real all-round crushing.

Jordan, Pippen, Kobe, O'Neal.

That's what it does.

Attack, you can't compare to me, and you are crushed by me every time.

Defense, you can't pass me, the shot is a block steal.

You can't even spew me trash talk.

Why do so many powers go back and forth, but in the world of modern basketball, there is only Phil Jackson, who has the ability to create dynasties, and there are three in one creation?

The mystery is here.

"The third problem is the possession." "The point guard is a less important part of the triangle offense, and according to the current configuration of the Kings, if I were Phil, I would definitely split the point guard work between Willis and Green to maximize my cousin's offensive threat," Horry said. But in this case, will Wei Shao willingly pass the ball to his cousin? Will Green be able to withstand the pressure and deliver a nice assist? It's all unknown. So this season for the Kings, I can only be cautiously optimistic. ”

"So what if my cousin plays a season where he averages 40 points per game, and his teammates play the same as Xiang, he can still win?" Reggie Miller made a big joke.

"Hahaha, then let's just say nothing tonight!" Horry just smiled casually and didn't take it seriously.

However, two and a half hours later.

Gu Yu told the world.

Who is the one who holds the king's power......!
