After playing the Kings' preseason game, the Lakers' next opponents are the Trail Blazers, Nuggets and Suns. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Judging from the preseason schedule arranged by the NBA league, they still take care of the Lakers, except for the first game against the Warriors, the opponents in the next games are generally not very strong.

The Kings and Suns, in particular, were both in the bottom three of the Western Conference last season...... And the Lakers were also in the bottom three in the West last season, if it weren't for the Lakers introducing Sun Dahei and Chris Paul this season, I'm afraid this preseason game would definitely evolve into a rookie pecking performance......

In the first game against the Warriors, presumably the NBA league management committee wanted to warm up for the Lakers' home court and attract fans to watch the game......

The next three opponents are not very strong, and they are all Western teams, and the league must want home fans to really feel the current strength of the Lakers, after all, the Trail Blazers and Nuggets were both teams that were extremely close to the playoffs last season.

……

Against the Trail Blazers, the Trail Blazers' backcourt duo of Lillard and CJ McCollum are definitely the core of the Trail Blazers' current offense.

The Lakers also strengthened their defensive intensity in the backcourt in this game, and the veteran Tony Allen played 25 minutes in this game, limiting Lillard very well, so that Lillard, who appeared for nearly 30 minutes, only scored 19 points.

Speaking of which, Lillard, a player, is also a typical nerve knife player, and when he explodes, he is desperate to prove himself, especially in the weeks of the All-Star vote, but if he doesn't feel good, Lillard may even become the culprit of the team's loss, and his inconsistent performance is Lillard's biggest shortcoming.

In this game, Sun Dahei appeared for about 15 minutes and led the Los Angeles Lakers to a 118-96 victory over the Trail Blazers.

Three consecutive wins in the preseason, except for the first game against the Warriors, the Lakers' victory margin did not reach double digits, and in the next two games, the Lakers beat their opponents by a big margin, at least winning by more than 20 points!

The Nuggets in the fourth game, this game is still quite a headache for Sun Dahei......

His opponent Jokic, a newcomer, did not make much contribution to the offense in this game, but he did a very good job in organizing the offense, playing 20 minutes and getting 11 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists......

Before the start of the game, Sun Dahei really didn't look down on this Jokic, after all, the gap between the status and strength of the two is too big, and in terms of body, Jokic is too much worse than Sun Dahei......

Originally, Sun Dahei planned to abuse the rookie who had recently been sharp, but the final result made Sun Dahei a little unwilling......

Jokic, a typical European interior player, has a very high ball quotient, facing Sun Dahei's oppressive defense, he is not in a hurry, with his ball quotient, of course, he also knows that if he fights under the basket, he is definitely not Sun Dahei's opponent, so he focuses on organizing offense, playing time for about 20 minutes, and won 10 assists, which is something that can only be done by top traditional point guards......

Although Sun Dahei's data in this game is also very powerful, he has cut down a double thirty in twenty-five minutes of playing time, and the assists are also doubles, but a discerning person can see at a glance that Sun Dahei's organizational ability and Jokic are not comparable at all!

The reason why Dahei can get a lot of assists per game is completely because of his super rebounding ability, in the past few games, Sun Dahei has been creating offensive opportunities for newcomers, grabbing offensive rebounds and passing them directly back to the hands of newcomers, and these newcomers are all catching and shooting, and the assists that Dahei can mix are naturally indispensable......

Although there is now a rumor circulating in the league that the center is withering, this statement cannot be said to be too accurate, to be precise, it should be the traditional center withering, and the center position presents a more diversified development.

Generally speaking, there are four types of centers in the NBA league today.

The first type is the orthodox center handed down from ancient times, that is, the traditional defensive center, which has the ability to attack under the basket and the ability to attack twice, but does not have the ability to shoot three-point and open up space for teammates! Typical representatives are the Jazz's Gobert, the Hawks' Howard, the Clippers' Jordan Jr., the Heat's Big White Rim and others......

The second type is a new type of center that follows the development of the times and adapts to today's basketball style, with three-point ability, the ability to open up space for teammates, and the ability to break through with the ball like a guard. However, the Pelicans Twin Towers are still slightly inferior to traditional centers in terms of defense.

There are also fans who are strange that Davis, the thick-eyed Davis in the Pelicans Twin Towers, averages 2.8 blocks per game, and can rank in the top three on the block list! Is his defense inferior to those traditional defensive centers?

The answer is indeed not! Blocks seem to be extremely expensive, but in fact, they do not show a player's defensive strength, and even sometimes, players with more blocks may become a colander in defense...... Bushy Davis certainly not a colander, but his defensive efficiency is still slightly inferior to those traditional defensive centers.

The data that truly reflects a player's defensive strength is not the block value, but the defensive efficiency value!

The third type is Jokic as a typical organizational center, most of them are European trained interior players, the ball quotient is very good, and the organizational ability is much stronger than the center produced in the United States, I believe that in the next few years in the NBA, this style of organizational center will gradually grow up and become the mainstay of each team.

The fourth type has a small number of people, and only Sun Dahei is alone...... Use one word to describe this fourth type of center, that is, a crushing center, defense, offense, and rebounding are all the most transcendent existences, and after Sun Dahei becomes the real core of the Lakers this season, he may even play an amazing statistic.

That's the five big data of points, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, and all of them are ranked first among all centers! This is the quality of a crushing center, there are no shortcomings, everything on the field, what do you want......

……

In the current NBA league, although there are a lot of newcomers who have emerged as strong insiders, there are really not many people who can really enter Sun Dahei's eyes, and now this Jokic makes Sun Dahei look different, and even in Sun Dahei's eyes, this Jokic will even be a greater threat to himself in the future than Towns, Embiid, and Porzingis!

……

In the end, the Lakers easily won the game against the Nuggets, and the huge gap in the strength of the two teams, the Nuggets had no chance at all!

……

Game 5 of the preseason was against the Phoenix Suns, mainly because they added a brilliant rookie point guard to their roster this year, nicknamed Lonzo Ball.

As the NBA's draft champion this season, Brother Qiu's debut at Staples Arena still attracted the attention of many fans! In fact, Brother Ball has always expressed the idea of wanting to join the Lakers, but on the one hand, the Lakers do not have a champion sign, and the Suns who got the top pick are the first, and on the other hand, the Lakers have Chris Paul, and it is a complete waste of resources to get a ball brother.

Champion Lonzo Ball vs. Josh Jackson undoubtedly became the biggest attraction of this game!

Another highlight of this game is Devin Booker, who scored 70 points last season, and that game accumulated a lot of fans for Booker, and the Lakers' home fans also want to take a good look at how this young man, known as Kobe's successor, will perform at Staples Arena.

On October 16, 2017, the Phoenix Suns will land at Staples Arena, where they will take on the upstart Lakers.

For this kind of interesting game, Lakers fans also bought tickets early, although the preseason is not counted in the regular season record, but fans watch the game live, the biggest fun is to watch the stars on the court to give wonderful performances, so whether it is a preseason or not, they don't care at all, as long as their favorite stars can play, then they will definitely come to the scene to support.

"Haha, young man, why do you look so nervous? Relax! The Lakers were warming up on the court before the game, and Sun Dahei noticed that Josh Jackson had hit iron in several open shots, and asked with a smile.

"Brother Dahei, uh, I'm a little nervous, I'm afraid that the performance in the venue is not as good as Lonzo Ball......" Josh Jackson is now completely confused with Sun Dahei, and he is very convinced of Dahei, and he didn't hide his thoughts, and directly told Sun Dahei.

"You're nervous about this?! I really don't know what to say about you! I think it's the Lonzo Ball who should be really nervous right now, first of all, they can't win the game, he's already lost half of it in front of you, and besides, if your stats don't compare well to him, can you watch you suffer? Rest assured! Sun Dahei opened his mouth to soothe Josh Jackson and let him relax!

Hearing Sun Dahei's words, Josh Jackson finally felt a little relieved, he understood what Dahei said, first of all, the sun is such a fish belly, and there are no blockbuster reinforcements in the offseason, if you want to win the upstart Lakers, it is tantamount to being difficult to climb to the sky! If the team loses, no matter how good the individual data is, it will definitely be greatly reduced......

Moreover, in addition to Sun Dahei's strong personal strength, he can also make a wedding dress for his teammates by relying on offensive rebounds, it can be said that any player in the Lakers' current lineup, including Farid, who is not very good offensively, and two pink interior Zubac and Larynance Jr., as long as Sun Dahei is willing, he can definitely let these people play at least 20+ points in a single game!

Feed you the ball infinitely, amateur players can also happen to hit the point of goal, not to mention them professional NBA athletes, if it really doesn't work, Sun Dahei still has a unique skill to help his teammates attack, that is, to open the defenders on the inside, empty the opponent's interior defense, and make it easier for his teammates to play the basket......

……

With Sun Dahei's assurance just now, Josh Jackson's confidence greatly increased, "Hehe, thank you, Brother Dahei, when I sign a big contract, I will definitely honor your old man......"

"Go, go, talk less nonsense, and fight well in a while!" Sun Dahei patted Josh Jackson on the shoulder and said with a grin.

……

The starters of both sides appeared, and the Lakers made some changes to the lineup this time, directly promoting Josh Jackson to the starter!

Center Sun Dahei, power forward Farid, small forward Josh Jackson, scoring guard Ingram, point guard Chris Paul.

In recent games, Josh Jackson has improved a lot, although his performance on the court is still not as mature as Thaddeus Young, but considering his potential, coupled with the fact that today's game is the top spot, Wharton Jr. decided to give Josh Jackson a chance to start.

As for the Phoenix Suns, after they acquired Lonzo Ball this season, they directly pressed him to the starting position, and the team's lineup has also changed a lot compared to last season.

The starting center is still Lynn Jr., starting power forward Markis Chris, starting small forward Devin Booker, starting point guard Eric Bledsoe, starting point guard Lonzo Ball.

This lineup is just an experimental lineup for Suns head coach Earl Watson, with two young interior players starting inside, which is the best option for the Suns at the moment, and the only option for them......

In terms of backcourt players, the Suns have a lot of talent at the moment, in addition to the starting Devin Booker, Eric Bledsoe, and Lonzo Ball, they also have TJ Warren, Derrick Jones Jr. and other good backcourts.

It's safe to assume that before the trade deadline for the following season, the Suns will definitely take one or two of their outstanding backcourt players and trade them in the league for some good interior players.

Devin Booker needless to say, scoring 70 points in a single game is enough to prove his ability and potential, and Kobe Bryant mainly plays the scoring guard position, but this game was arranged by Watson to the small forward position, judging from the current development of the league, these two positions have gradually blurred, and almost more than 80% of the players who score guard players can play small forwards.

And Bledsoe, the scoring guard he played in this game, was quite unexpected, Bledsoe, nicknamed "Blood Cloth", has been playing point guard in his career, to be precise, it should be a two-way guard, and his style is somewhat similar to Wei Shao, but his strength is definitely not as good as Wei Shao, like a weak version of Wei Shao.

The biggest reason why the Suns ranked second to last in the league last season was that the blood cloth missed too many games, and if the blood cloth remained healthy, the Suns' strength may not be much worse than the Nuggets and Trail Blazers......

Ball brother Lonzo Ball is the team's starting point guard in this game, in terms of organizational ability, although blood cloth can also play point guard, but the control of the rhythm is definitely not as good as the traditional point guard ball brother.
