"Well, Mr. Yang, what do you think of the Warriors' lineup today? I remember that they didn't play like this in the China game, did they come up with a new killer feature against the Lakers today, or did they want to experiment with the lineup to see if they could find another way to deal with the Lakers? "The fat man who had just 'transferred' to Penguin Sports began to tempt Yang Yi again and said something that he didn't have. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the offseason that just ended, the NBA official and several major TV stations in the United States jointly signed a 9-year sky-high regular season broadcast contract of up to 24 billion yuan, and the playoffs are counted separately, and signed a 5-year 500 million US dollar online live broadcast contract with China's Penguin Sports.

As the most popular online NBA commentary group in China, the fat man Ke Fan and the slapped-face emperor Yang Yi were naturally also poached.

There is also a five-year broadcast fee of 750 million for network broadcasting and TV broadcasting in Europe, which means that the NBA's annual broadcast revenue will exceed 3 billion US dollars in the future, which is about four times more than the NBA broadcast revenue last season.

Last season's NBA revenue was 4.9 billion, deducting 700 million broadcast fees, which is 4.2 billion.

In other words, the broadcast fee alone in the new season can reach three-quarters of the total NBA revenue in addition to the broadcast fee!

After the signing of this broadcast agreement, it marks that the NBA has changed from ticket revenue to broadcast fee income, which is in line with the social entertainment change that contemporary Internet celebrity live broadcast is more profitable than theater performances.

Before the start of the regular season last year, Forbes Sports estimated that the NBA's total revenue last season was 4.7 billion, but due to James's three consecutive rounds of unnatural performance in the East, coupled with the 23vs24 Finals gathering to complete the fans' waiting for several years, it created an additional 200 million US dollars in income for the NBA, making this year's salary cap 3 million more than expected, so that the Lakers have not exceeded the luxury tax threshold after signing Monroe and Biyombo. Almost didn't Popovich to death.

Because the Lakers have a full middle class in this way, it's useless.

This total income is very affected by the playoffs, if this year's playoffs are still so attractive, can be more intense, the income will definitely be more than the expected income, now the contract is used to use the expected salary cap for next season, it must be calculated in a low way, otherwise the contract will exceed the real salary cap, then it will be invalid and need to be renegotiated.

Therefore, when the team renews the contract in advance, the maximum salary is given in a low way, and the income in the new season will definitely not be lower than they expected.

Yang Yi looked at the fat man with a cheap smile on his face, and really wanted to punch the fat man in the face, but this was a live broadcast, and he could only grit his teeth and analyze.

was slapped in the face by the Lakers too badly before, Yang Yi said in his heart, he really wanted to blow a wave of warriors and step on a wave of Liu Ren, this is what his character should dare to do.

But Yang Yi, who claims to be the representative of the villain who is drunk and sober in the world, is a little hesitant, he really doesn't know whether the warrior's move is a good move or a stinky move, and according to past experience, there is a high chance of stinky chess.

So Yang Yi said: "I think the Warriors want to try to see if there is any other way to beat the Lakers, after all, they barely fought back in the playoffs last year." ”

"So what do you think of this change for the Warriors? Do you think they have a chance to beat the Lakers? Will this change work? ”

Yang Yi secretly scolded the fat man for being really obscene, so he could only grit his teeth and say: "I don't think there is much chance, the Lakers are also a representative team of small lineups, they have used Green to play center, Liu Ren to play power forward, I think they should have a lot of experience to deal with the Warriors for this change." ”

“……”

“……”

The preseason game is mainly broadcast online, and there is basically no live TV, just when Yang Yi stubbornly analyzed whether the Warriors might not be the opponent of the Lakers, the game began.

Gasol excitedly walked to the center of the court, ready to jump the ball with Randle.

Gasol is so happy!

It's finally time to win the jumping ball! If Bogut is two meters and three meters, Gasol feels that he can't jump, but Randle, a small forward height of two meters and six meters, he thinks he can always win, right?

The fans were looking forward to it the same way, and Gasol received cheers when he came on the field.

Not to mention, Lakers fans still love their players, and they don't want to watch Gasol be beaten by opponents forever in the jump ball.

However, when the referee's whistle blew, Gasol jumped up and reached for the ball...... Another, stronger, darker hand appeared above Gasol!

Randle's bounce was so explosive that he flicked the ball over Gasol's head to Curry.

The Warriors attacked first, Randle just dialed the ball to the back, the rest of the Warriors team had already begun to go down, Randle also pounced on the front court like a cheetah after landing, Curry didn't carry the ball after receiving the ball, and threw it directly to the Lakers basket, Thompson received the ball and kept the ball to fill it up, and Randle, who caught up, caught up with the air and dunked.

“#@%@&……”

The fans and Lakers players scolded their own mantras, this scene seems familiar, but the protagonist has become an opponent!

Just like the Lakers' rare three-second fast break when they had a chance to win the jump ball before, the opponent couldn't defend against it and didn't expect it at all, and the Lakers didn't expect it this time, basically just watching the Warriors finish the fast break, everyone was stunned!

D'Antoni's eyes widened, he often walked by the river, he often imitated and learned the opponent's offensive routines into his own tactics, allowing the opponent to find his own loopholes, this time he also became a sacrifice of this style of play!

D'Antoni stared at Luke Wharton next to the Warriors' bench, and Wharton seemed to feel D'Antoni's gaze and covered up his embarrassment with a dry cough.

D'Antoni saw this scene and guessed that someone had brought this philosophy to the Warriors, and that person was the young assistant coach who knew the Lakers very well and went to the Warriors to learn this year.

After the first round of the playoffs last year, the last thing D'Antoni wanted to meet in the second round was the Spurs, and he was worried that with Wharton on the Spurs, could the Lakers still have secrets? Before leaving for the Spurs in the summer of 2014, Walton discussed with D'Antoni about the Lakers' offensive system the following year......

However, D'Antoni doesn't feel anything wrong with Wharton's approach, is it not allowed to play the Spurs system when the coach jumps from the Spurs to the Hawks? Didn't Spurs head coach Budenholzer and Raptors head coach Casey rely on the Spurs system to make a name for themselves! And it's everyone's praise!

The Warriors, who may continue to improve this year, have made D'Antoni feel difficult to deal with, and now the other party has one more who is very familiar with his side, D'Antoni originally admired Wharton's coaching talent very much, and now Wharton not only studied with him for a year, but also apprenticed with Popovich for a year, and D'Antoni knows very well that Wharton may not have learned all the things from his coach, but he must have learned what he wanted, and he would never choose to leave if he didn't learn what he wanted to learn.

Now the Warriors will be even more difficult to deal with, a young coach who combines the three heads of Zen Master, Popovich and D'Antoni himself......

However, although the Warriors are difficult to deal with, D'Antoni is still confident, as long as there are no big surprises, the Lakers' advantage is still obvious, the Warriors can't get past the Lakers' one cut is to rotate the lineup, for the Warriors to start five players no more than two meters and six, and spent a 2 or two years 16 million contract with a player option in the summer to poach Jason Thompson, a Kings veteran, just to strengthen the bench.

This death five small one faction, and use a new player to replace the starter, then Bogut will enter the rotation lineup, and did not use the originally very stable second team to the starter, but used Bogut to replace the little and often injured Aizeli, the Warriors bench lineup instantly strengthened a lot, Bogut as the goalkeeper of the champion show, although not too worthy of this pick, but at least compared to the backup center of most teams in the league has a great advantage.

While the Warriors have a few more changes that could put D'Antoni under pressure, D'Antoni is now more interested in how soon Wharton can hollow out Steve Kerr. Thinking of this, D'Antoni instantly felt less uncomfortable with Wharton going to the Lakers' possible worst enemy in the new season, but had some small expectations.

……

……

The Warriors' death is five small, the Lakers thought that their defense would be a big problem, the inside height was too short, just when the Lakers were about to hit Gasol, Clarkson, who controlled the ball, found that Gasol couldn't go in at all!

Jason Thompson is like a stump.

Liu Ren saw Jason Thompson, who was out of shape, and then remembered that this guy was a lottery pick in 08, and he played 11.7 points and 8.4 rebounds in his rookie year, because he was only the 12th pick, and most of the time he was on the bench, averaging only 24 minutes per game, the Kings simply felt that they had picked up a treasure, and this was still the data of the rookie year.

Tristan Thompson, who just signed a five-year, 85 million contract this summer, averaged 8+8 per game last season......

paid attention to Jason Thompson, precisely because when Liu Ren saw Tristan Thompson sign a strange contract extension of 5 years and 85 million in his last life, he wanted to find out who Thompson was, and then saw Jason Thompson who only got a salary of 8 million.

However, Jason Thompson, who averaged 24 minutes per game in his rookie year and scored 11+8, surged to 32 minutes per game in the second year, but the data was still about the same, only 12+9, 11+9 in the third year, and 12+8 in the fourth year...... No matter how much playing time he has, he is about the same data, the King's reflex arc is long enough, and after the rookie contract is finished, I find that he is a mature player who graduated at the age of 22 and has reached the peak of his rookie strength like Duncan when he entered the league, and he should play on a championship team.

Speaking of Liu Ren, he also thinks that Jason Thompson is really a pity, in 08, the NBA was in a melee, the Lakers, Mavericks, Spurs, Hornets, Rockets, Trail Blazers in the West, and the Cavaliers, Pistons, and Celtics in the East...... There are a lot of teams competing for the championship, and many teams are short of power forwards, but at that time he was held by the Kings, and now there is a super strong team left in the NBA, the Lakers, two top teams, the Cavaliers, the Warriors, and the others are not very likely to compete for the championship, even if the Spurs and Knicks look good, but in fact they are not really regarded as the favorites for the championship, and the lineup remains to be tested.

And Jason Thompson, who has spent his peak years, has also become a fat uncle, a flexible fat man.

Jason Thompson squatted on the inside like a meat pile, Gasol just couldn't squeeze in, and Randle played the role of Liu Ren on the Lakers' side to help defend everywhere, covering up his shortcomings in poor single defense ability very well, and showing the advantages of strong mobility and good awareness of helping defense.

Although Barnes on the outside is not a good defender, he is not bad, it is okay to use his height advantage to interfere with Kobe, Thompson defends Liu Ren, and Curry, who is slightly defensive with a black hole, is left to defend Clarkson.

D'Antoni saw the Warriors' defensive system, and Bickerstaff could only smile wryly, Steve Kerr didn't do this kind of thing last year to learn from the opponent's defensive system, and as soon as Wharton went, he brought what he observed from the Lakers' side, not to mention the presentable.

Although the Warriors' defensive goals are different from those of the Lakers, the system is very similar.

The Lakers are good at forcing opposing ball carriers to get inside and then shrink the pack, while the Warriors aim to give the weakest point on the court a scoring opportunity.

In the eyes of the Warriors, the weakest point of the Lakers' starting lineup is, of course, Clarkson.

Clarkson handed the ball to Green, Green saw that there was no pass object and passed it back to Clarkson, seeing that it was Curry who was defending himself, Clarkson decided to play alone!

Shoot when it's time to do it, don't hesitate, that's what D'Antoni taught Clarkson last year.

It can be said that Curry's one-on-one defense is really bad, Clarkson rushed through with a change of direction, but unlike the previous Curry who was broken through and would only chase him to death, this time he ran directly towards Green, and Randle, who was supposed to defend Green, appeared in front of Clarkson and blocked Clarkson directly with his strong body.

I have to say that Randle is worthy of being called Randolph with Odom's mobility in the draft, this is strong and fast, and his agility is not even lost to Clarkson, Clarkson can play Curry casually, but he was prevented by a guy who played center today!

Clarkson forced a step-back jumper and missed, and just as Clarkson shot, the Warriors all but Randle shrank and Barnes grabbed the defensive rebound.

The Warriors quickly counterattacked, taking advantage of the weakness of a seven-foot man like Gasol on the Lakers' side, and quickly formed a 5-on-4 situation, and finally Thompson hit a three-pointer in the bottom corner.

5 to 0! The Warriors started the game with a small lineup and went on a 5-0 run!
