The Magic have always been very ambitious, and there are a lot of big contracts for players, but they often dig the wrong people. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Ren knows that if it is normal, with the lame lineup of the Magic, the record in the next two years will not be much better, Učevic is no different from the data brush, it looks bullish, but in fact, it is really not useful when there are no suitable teammates.

Now the Magic's record is hovering around eleven or twelfth in the East, not because the Magic are playing well, but because the teams in the East are too bad except for those top teams.

Today's atmosphere in the team is relatively relaxed, playing magic D'Antoni has no pressure at all, if it is really possible, D'Antoni will definitely let Liu Ren and Gasol rest with Kobe.

But these fans away from home will definitely not buy it, the Magic box office has not been good in the past two years, the reason why this game is full is because they are playing the Lakers, and many fans who come to Orlando from other places buy tickets just to see Liu Ren and Kobe.

There have been too many rotational breaks in the past two years, and there have even been cases where fans from the slums have saved money for three years to watch a game of their favorite star, but that star has been rested in rotation!

In the end, the matter almost went into trouble, and it was the league that gave away a package ticket to this fan to solve the public relations crisis, and now during the official high-risk period, D'Antoni does not want to be targeted by the league.

The game starts at 5:30 p.m.

The Lakers' starting lineup is composed of Clarkson, McCollum, Liu Ren, Green, and Gasol, and the lineup on the Magic's side makes the Lakers look relatively unfamiliar, with many rookies and sophomores.

Most of the players in the current lineup composed of Payton, Oladipo, Ben Gordon, Aaron Gordon, and Vucevic are not familiar to the Lakers, except for Ucevic and Ben Gordon, the others are not famous at all.

The most famous player in this group is Vucevic, who is nicknamed by fans as the cornerstone of the future of the Lakers.

Youth is the hallmark of this Magic team, and with the exception of Ben Gordon, a veteran who was once pinned on by the Pistons, the rest of the core members are all on rookie contracts.

Whiteside and Vucevic are the best of the big men in the league, and they naturally want to play each other well when they meet, and they are stronger than others.

However, Whiteside will not play until the second half of the first quarter, so he can only hold back for a while.

Gasol's jump ball was as pit as ever, and Vucevic won the jump ball.

The Magic attacked first, Payton advanced to the frontcourt, and as the best point guard in this rookie, Payton's overall vision and organizational skills were shown early.

Individual offensive ability may not be good, but Payton showed excellent playmaking talent and good defensive awareness in his rookie year.

Payton mobilized his teammates to run, and after Oladipo ran out of the open space, he immediately passed, and Oladipo received the ball and hit a close-range throw to take the lead in scoring two points for the Magic.

Oladipo's movement and shooting are eye-catching, and the Magic picked up a good seedling in the 13th year of the draft.

It's a bit wrong to say that it's picked, Oladipo is the leader, just look at that year's champion show, you can know how good the Magic's luck is.

The Lakers attacked, Gasol singled inside, and in the face of Vucevic defense, Gasol seemed to be at ease.

Vucevic doesn't look like a white man, but he has a wild style of play and is full of confrontation, he doesn't like Bosh's soft egg play, and every time he plays the Heat, he has to tyrannize Bosh once, and every time he scores more than 20 points, 20 or even 30 rebounds on Bosh's head.

He is another iconic figure who eats and sleeps and fights the heat.

This time he played Gasol, and Ucevic wanted to show off again, so he kept using his body to fight Gasol.

Feeling the pressure coming from behind him, Gasol felt that the other party was not as easy to deal with as he imagined, and began to get serious.

"Little brother, are you ready?" Gasol said softly, to Vucevich.

"Paul, Uncle Vucevic has been waiting for you for a long time!" It is said that character determines the style of play, and Vucevic's wild style of play is inseparable from his rugged character.

Gasol pushed behind him, and Vucevic behind him was like an iron plate.

Gasol had expected this to be the case, and when he played Vucevic for the first time two years ago, Vucevic was still a rookie, and he had already impressed Gasol with his solid body and high ball quotient.

The sad thing is that the management of the 76ers, who took Ucevic and didn't reuse it, threw away the gold nuggets like dung, and now they are choosing big men every year, betting on the modern centers they have selected who only know how to jump and play, expecting one of them to become a talent, but the big man selected for two consecutive years has not played a season and is reimbursed.

It's such a cruel thing to have a bad draft......

Gasol was ready to come by himself, he was interested in playing with the young man, first turned left to lead Vucevic, and then turned to the right, but before he could finish turning to the right, his body suddenly stopped, and then turned left.

Gasol's beautiful low footwork stunned Vucevic and jumped uncontrollably.

Gasol flicked off the opponent and threw the ball into the basket.

Vucevic has excellent offensive and rebounding ability, but his defense is mediocre, and he can only be deflated against Gasol, a white monster.

Magic offense, although Vucevic is the core of the team, but the Magic's offense starts from the outside, and the Magic has not changed the way of playing since joining the NBA, whether it is the O'Neal era or the Howard era, the outside line is the first offensive point.

The Magic's new coach is committed to cultivating a winning culture that doesn't necessarily mean you have to win, but rather a belief that you have to win every game, and that every game from the coach to the players will do their best to win, and if you do lose, it only shows that the team is still young.

The Lakers' outside defense wasn't aggressive today, and Ben Gordon easily ran out of the gap and made a three-point shot after receiving a pass from Payton.

McCollum didn't pounce, but went inside to block the opponent's outside to prevent the opponent from rushing for the rebound.

The Magic's outside shooting may be one of the worst in the league, potential is potential, but it's only potential, and now they're just rookies who haven't lived up to their talent.

And Ben Gordon is no longer the best sixth man he was at the beginning, just a multi-million salary retirement player, no ambition, no ball possession, and was specially signed by the Magic because he will not hinder the development of the other four young starters, and can pass on experience to young players.

Sure enough, as Comccollum expected, Ben Gordon missed a three-point shot, but Vucevic grabbed the offensive rebound!

Vucevic's teammates' rebounds were very well judged, and with his strong body and positioning skills, he was able to pick up the offensive rebounds from Gasol's head.

After grabbing the offensive rebound, Vucevic hit it inside, which is what Vucevic does best.

Let Vucevic get closer to the basket step by step, Gasol just tried to interfere with the arc of Vucevic's shot, Vucevic threw his hand high on Gasol's head, Gasol had no way to block it, and the one-on-one offensive skills Vucevic was much stronger than Howard's rough brother, and few people could stop him.

But Gasol wasn't in a hurry, because he saw the guy coming, and he just had to do what he could.

Just when Vucevic's high throw was about to reach its highest point, Liu Ren suddenly appeared in mid-air, sent out a big hat, slapped the ball, and fanned the ball directly out of bounds.

Gasol and Liu Ren high-fived, smiled and glanced at Vucevic, according to age, Ucevic is similar to what he suffered during his time with the Grizzlies, he is very strong, but the team will always drag him down and let him expose all his biggest weaknesses.

Strong teammates, excellent record, no one will think of trading him yet, and Gasol is playing very happily right now.
