The NBA preseason has always been a period of adaptation after a team's new roster.

Because wins are not counted, the team can safely and boldly adjust the rotation.

The Cavaliers' first preseason game went straight to the planned main lineup for the new season.

The starting five are point guard Irving, scoring guard J.R. Smith, small forward Wang Feng, power forward James and center Love.

This lineup is similar to the Warriors' Death Five, except for Love, the other four have strong mobility, extremely fast offensive and defensive transitions, and Irving, JR. Smith and Wang Feng all have good outside shooting ability, and James's ability at the point forward position is far better than Draymond Green.

As soon as this lineup debuted, it gave people a bright feeling.

Among them, Wang Feng's experience is particularly clear.

As a player who mainly attacks without the ball, although he began to gradually increase his ball-holding offense in the second half of the Warriors, and after strengthening his ball-handling ability during the Olympic Games, his ball-holding offensive ability is not weaker than that of first-line guards, but Wang Feng is most familiar with the set of shooting immediately when he receives the ball, and the existence of the catch-and-shoot badge also makes him play better in this way.

As a point forward, James' ability to control the pace of the game and pass the ball is completely at the top level in the world. Paul and Rajan. Rondo is two traditional point guards.

As soon as the game opened, Wang Feng realized the strength of James.

He habitually came to the bottom corner of the left corner outside the three-point line, and just after standing in his position, James had already begun to break through with the ball, forcibly crushing the players who defended him, and after attracting the opponent's bag, the basketball was passed out of the human gap and accurately fell into the hands of Wang Feng.

Wang Feng immediately made a three-point shot, and the badges such as catch-and-shoot shooter, bottom corner three-point shooter, and fast shooter were activated at the same time.

Basketball goes to the net.

For the next few rounds, it was exactly the same.

No matter what position he is in, what angle he is in, James seems to be able to spot a teammate in that position from the crowd who has a better chance and has a way to get the ball to the opponent.

With James' individual ability, the other players on the Cavaliers team have more or less got a lot of good shots.

Being teammates with James made Wang Feng deeply understand why some people always say that James is a player with his own system.

Indeed, as long as James is on the court, then he will be the team's first offensive core, and the offensive rhythm of the whole team is completely around James.

The benefits are obvious, and some players who lack the offensive ability to play on their own can play well under James's system.

But for some players who need a certain amount of ball control to play at their own level, partnering with James often means a shrinkage of personal data.

Wade, Bosh, Lefou, and others are all typical examples.

But this kind of thing can be a bad thing for the individual players, but it is the best option for the team.

It is true that the personal data of these players is affected by James, but the direct reason for this result is that James is much more efficient offensively than them when he has the ball.

Leaving the basketball to a more efficient player to handle is a matter of course.

Although their personal data has declined, it is also an indisputable fact that the team's results have skyrocketed.

is like Lefou, before joining the Cavaliers, he was a double-double machine averaging 20+10 per game, and at his peak, he could average 26 points, 12.5 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game, and his performance looked completely MVP-level.

Love has swiped his personal data to fly, but his Timberwolves have never made the playoffs.

After joining the Cavaliers, Lefou's personal data has shrunk significantly, averaging only 16 points and 9 rebounds per game, but the Cavaliers have a strong dominance in the East, reaching the finals for many years.

It can only be said that James is a success, and James is also defeated.

Whether personal data is more important or honor is more important, no one can give a definite answer.

But if this question is asked to Wang Feng, he will say that I want it all.

First preseason game.

Wang Feng played the most minutes among the five starters, playing 27 minutes, scoring 24 points, 5 rebounds and 3 steals to help the Cavaliers win their first victory.

The reason why Wang Feng has been on for so long is that head coach Tyronn. Lu may be trying to prove to the Cavaliers fans that their summer recruitment was a success, and the arrival of Wang Feng can definitely take the Cavaliers' strength to the next level, and they have a chance to win the championship.

In the following preseason games, Wang Feng's playing time was also maintained at about 30 minutes, and he was able to score almost 30+ points in every game.

In the face of the bench players of various teams, Wang Feng's three-point line long-range shooting and breakthrough ability are like a dimensionality reduction blow.

Such a result is indeed quite satisfactory to Cavaliers fans.

After all, Wang Feng seems to be quite strong, and his technical characteristics are also in line with James' one-star system.

Although in terms of personal strength, Wang Feng may not be as good as Durant.

But looking at the forward position in the league, except for James, Durant, Leonard and several other top All-Star forwards, there seems to be no better player than Wang Feng.

What's more, Wang Feng's 1-year contract of 18 million is really not expensive, compared to Harrison next door. Barnes, Chandler. Parsons, it's definitely cheap, but it's a pity that it's only 1 year.

Compared with the high-profile actions of the Cavaliers and Wang Feng, the Warriors are quiet.

Curry, Durant, Thompson and Green, the four main players, only play an average of just over ten minutes per game, and most of the rest of the game is handed over to the bench.

The Warriors don't seem to want to grind in the roster at all, and they don't really need to.

Thompson and Green are teammates of Durant during the Olympics, and they have long had a certain tacit understanding with each other, as for Curry, there is no problem, just Curry and Durant repeatedly played alone on the court, which is enough to defeat the vast majority of teams in the league.

This can be seen from the odds offered by the bookmaker to win the championship.

The Warriors topped the league at 1.75 odds, almost rivaling the '96 Bulls at the peak of Joe's gang.

The Cavaliers, who are in second place, even if they get Wang Feng, still have odds as high as 4, which is much higher than the Warriors.

In addition to the Warriors and Cavaliers, the San Antonio Spurs have odds of 10 to win the championship, and the rest of the teams are above 20.

It can be seen that the Warriors in the new season will become the new leader of the league, moving towards a three-in-a-row championship, and the only possible opponent on the road is the Cleveland Cavaliers.
