"Let's take a look at the starting lineup of the Bulls tonight, Ty Gibson, Pau Gasol, Jimmy Butler, Derrick Rose and Evantto Moore. On the Lakers' side, they just went through a trade, and two new members have come to the starting lineup. In the frontcourt, it is Hibbert, Randolph, and Wang Shuang. Backcourt partners are Tony Allen, as well as Kobe Bryant. Jeff, what do you think of this trade from the Lakers. ”

The play-by-play commentary is played by Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy.

These two are not the same as ordinary basketball commentators.

They are all former NBA head coaches.

And it's not the kind of coach who doesn't have much of an achievement.

Jeff Van Gundy once coached the Predator Knicks to reach the Finals.

Later, he coached Yao Ming with the Rockets and was well known by Chinese fans.

And Mark Jackson has had a stellar career as a player.

During his time as a coach with the Warriors, Curry's abilities were developed.

Although he stepped down later, Steve Kerr won the championship honor.

But Mark Jackson's work with the Warriors is undeniable.

Two veteran head coaches, watching the ball from an angle and ordinary fans.

And the commentators who are out of tune, half a bottle of water swaying around are certainly different.

For this trade between the Lakers and the Grizzlies.

There are still a lot of controversies and evaluations.

Jeff Van Gundy responded: "First of all, I think I was surprised that this deal happened. The Grizzlies will take a small half of the rotation roster and trade it for the Lakers' two rookies. In fact, the Grizzlies already have Conley, and they still need Russell for some reason? One thing is for sure, though, the Grizzlies entered a rebuilding period ahead of schedule. ”

Van Gundy pointed out many people's doubts about the deal.

"But when you think about it, there's nothing too confusing about. Because of the lineup of Conley Galandov and Gasol Jr., their ceiling has reached this point and will not go any further. Conley and Gasol Jr. can last two years, but Randolph has slipped so badly that he can understand that the trade will go. And I think the Grizzlies should not value Randle and Russell the most, but the Lakers' unprotected first-round pick. ”

Van Gundy was right.

What really carries in this deal is the Lakers' unprotected draft picks.

Although the Lakers have been on a good streak lately.

But it's hard to say exactly what their final results were.

Once the Lakers have a bad record behind.

Slip to the bottom.

Then they're in next year's draft.

It's likely to pick up a high pick.

This is what Grizzlies value the most.

Jackson nodded again and again after hearing this, and said, "What about the Lakers?" ”

At this point, the game on the field is about to begin.

Van Gundy said: "How are the Lakers, I think we have to look at today's game, let's see how they played, right? Especially their number 10 player, Wang Shuang, is a very noteworthy player. I even think that the Lakers are trading for him, expecting him to be a superstar. ”

Jackson said: "Can he become a superstar?" ”

Van Gundy said: "I don't know, he was unknown before, I really haven't seen a player like this. But in the NBA, anything can happen, let's watch the game. ”

The players of both sides are introduced after the end of the awareness.

Stand on the pitch and get ready for tonight's regular season.

Bryant chatted with Gasol before the game began.

The two are old comrades-in-arms and have a very good relationship.

Then Gasol went to the center circle and jumped with Hibbert.

The game begins.

Gasol can't jump.

But the height is long arms.

Be the first to touch the ball.

The Bulls went on offense.

The first attack of the opening.

The Bulls chose Gasol.

Pocket out to catch the ball and meet Randolph,

Hit a direct mid-range jumper!

Both are power forwards.

But Gasol has a tall reach.

The average center is out of reach.

Not to mention the neckless Randolph.

Randolph symbolically stretched out his hand.

It didn't interfere with Gasol at all.

It was clear that Randolph was still uncomfortable with coming to Stamps.

I don't get used to playing ball.

Mentally also uncomfortable.

He worked hard for Grizzlies for many years.

Lead the Grizzly Black Eight.

The black and white bears were terrifying for a while.

As a result, the deal is the deal.

Grizzly fans are also angry.

They protested one after another, why they traded Randolph.

And after Randolph arrived in Los Angeles.

From a playoff team, to a Western Conference countdown.

Fortunately, the Lakers are now going to make the playoffs as well.

But look at this record......

The first half of the race was really too pulled.

As a result, there are too many lessons to make up later.

The opening game was easily scored by the Bulls.

The Lakers went on offense.

Kobe Bryant possesses the ball.

On the sidelines, Van Gundy saw the Lakers' lineup.

"Scott asked Kobe to play point guard because Kobe isn't as good defensively as he used to be. Let Tony Allen play the number two position to strengthen the team's defensive ability at the back. It's a good arrangement. And in the Lakers' recent games, Wang Shuang and Kobe Bryant have a lot of blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation......"

Van Gundy's explanation wasn't finished yet.

The Lakers had a small problem on offense.

Wang Shuang went to the high position to respond and cover for Kobe.

But Randolph also wanted to go to the top of the list.

Obviously, the cooperation between the two new teammates is not tacit.

Then Randolph stepped back, and so did Wang Shuang.

This high-level cooperation did not work.

Bryant could only share the ball with Tony Allen.

Allen returns the ball to Bryant.

Reorganize this offensive.

In the end, Bryant had to force a three-pointer from the outside.

As soon as the ball was shot, I knew that there was none.

Didn't shake off the defense.

Butler pressed tightly.

The ball is very deflected.

Just rubbed it on the basket. -->>

[Reading updates load slowly, there are ads, chapters are incomplete, please exit Reading and read!] 】

The Bulls got the backcourt rebound.

Counterattack.

Wang Shuang took a look and thought: "Oops, Lao Ke didn't score the first goal at the beginning, he didn't feel good, this game is troublesome." ”

Kobe Bryant's start is not good.

The ability to adjust is far worse than it used to be.

In addition, with the change of new teammates, everyone did not run in well.

If you want to win this game, I'm afraid it will not be easy.

And I don't know why, the system didn't give Wang Shuang a task.

This made Wang Shuang feel a little unaccustomed.

Anyway, the system also felt that this game was completely hopeless.

Isn't it worth fighting?

The Bulls' offense.

They didn't play fast breaks.

The Lakers quickly fell into position.

Defend against the position.

The king is against Jimmy Butler.

Kobe Bryant vs. Moore.

Tony Allen vs. Rose.

In this way, there will be less defensive pressure on Bryant's shoulders.

Wang Shuang faced Butler and had an advantage in height, weight, and arm span.

Explosiveness and speed are lacking.

However, it is not so easy for Butler to want to casually assault the king.

Wang Shuang drove Butler, who was holding the ball, to the bottom corner.

Forcing him to go to the baseline or pass the ball.

When Mark Jackson saw it, he said, "Wang Shuang's defense is very smart, and he will use the sideline to help him. Butler had to pass the ball. ”

The ball was passed three times and led by two leads, and finally went to Moore, who had the worst attacking power.

Moore forced a missed shot under Kobe's defense.

But the basket grabs the backcourt rebound.

Randolph and Hibbert collided.

The ball was eventually snatched away by Rose.

Or the Bulls' possession.

Then distribute the ball to the perimeter.

Look at the defensive alignment again.

There was a misalignment on the Bulls' side.

The man who defended Pau Gasol turned into Kobe?

Kobe Bryant was probably stunned.

Obviously a matter of defensive communication.

Gasol certainly won't miss such an opportunity to misplace.

After receiving the ball, turn around and walk to the baseline.

Then feint, then turn over, and shoot with a small hook.

Kobe Bryant didn't even bother to jump.

There is no way to do this ball.

Pau Gasol hit a two-point shot.

Gasol came to his old club, the Lakers.

Scored two goals in a row at the beginning.

"The Bulls' two offenses can show that the Lakers' defense still needs some run-in, and they have some communication problems. Randolph and Allen's individual defensive ability is fine, but defending requires teamwork, even more than offense. ”

Van Gundy said.

A lot of people think that only the offense needs to be coordinated, to pass the ball.

Actually, it's okay to attack with just one person.

Giving the ball to the strongest man and letting him play alone can solve a lot of problems.

But there is no one defense in defense.

The whole team must cooperate and communicate.

On the offensive end, Hibbert held the ball high up.

Others went around in circles.

Hibbert opted for a direct mid-range shot from the high post.

Hit two points.

Hibbert Live at the beginning of every game.

He can make one or two mid-range jumpers.

Because of the good physical strength in the opening game, everyone's defensive intensity is not great.

He didn't have much pressure to throw.

Wait for the middle of the game, and the key moment.

His mid-range is not good at all.

I didn't even dare to make a move.

Then, Butler broke through the middle and forced a layup.

Wang Shuang's ball gave up the left-hand position to Butler.

Hopefully, there will be a complement on the inside.

Hibbert's speed is obviously not good.

Bypassed by Butler, he switched hands and made a layup.

The Bulls started 6-2 and pressed the Lakers.

Kobe Bryant tried to cooperate with Wang Shuang in blocking and pick-and-roll.

But apparently the Bulls targeted defensively.

Butler and Rose's pressing defense.

Squeeze the space for Wang Shuang and Kobe Bryant.

Make Bryant's passing difficult.

As long as the pass is slow, the power of the pick-and-roll will be greatly reduced.

Pick-and-roll is by tearing the opponent's defense.

Pass the ball when there is a gap in the defence.

to break down the opponent's defensive formation.

Once torn apart, it didn't pass well, or it didn't come fast enough.

The gap will soon close.

This cover is in vain.

And Randolph tried to ask for the ball in the low post.

was blocked by Gibson.

Defend around the front.

For how to feed Randolph low post.

There's not enough training within the Lakers.

In the end, it was Kobe Bryant who forced a three-point shot from the outside.

And I didn't hit it.

How did Kobe's shooting percentage come down?

It's just that there are too many forced shots when this tactic doesn't work.

Kobe Bryant didn't care, he dared to vote.

But it doesn't matter if this basketball doesn't matter, I really dare not score.

"Bang dang" smashed on the neck of the basket.

Gasol got the rebound in the backcourt.

The Bulls hit Gibson in the low post.

It's to eat Randolph!

Gibson turned his back and forced a layup miss!

But the bull No. 55 Moore flew out of nowhere.

Finish the basket.

8:2！

The Bulls opened the game with a six-point lead.

Wang Shuang looked at Kobe Bryant and said, "You are optimistic about your people!" ”

Kobe Bryant rolled his eyes at Wang Shuang, "I don't need you to teach me to play!" ”
