Chapter 356: Perfect start 18-1

"Wang Feng is really getting stronger and stronger."

Anyone who sees the process of the game can't help but sigh.

Leonard and James, two top forward defenders, are helpless in the face of Wang Feng.

Especially after Wang Feng's passing and assisting ability is strong to this extent, he is almost at the stage of no weakness on the field.

This is a pretty scary thing, after all, even top superstars like Jordan and James have flaws, such as Jordan's three-point shot is not accurate enough, James' free throws are a little weak, and so on.

But the current Wang Feng can't find any flaws in a short period of time.

Facing players who are good at outside defense, then Wang Feng broke through with the ball and used speed and strength to crush the opponent.

If he faced a player who was physically strong and good at interior defense, Wang Feng would shoot three points on the outside, relying on his super range to make the opponent unable to start.

In the event of a double pack, Wang Feng's passing ability is also fully sufficient to pass the ball to an empty teammate before the bag is fully formed.

The current Wang Feng is completely a version of Doncic with a strengthened scoring and defensive ability, with comprehensive skills and strong comprehensive ability, it is difficult to pick out some weaknesses from his personal body, and the only breakthrough may be the overall strength of his teammates.

But the Lakers aren't the Mavericks of the future, and Jimmy. Both Butler and Ingram have All-Star level strength, both offensive and defensive, and will definitely not hold Wang Feng back.

At halftime, the difference between the two teams further widened, and the Lakers led by 11 points in the two quarters at 64:53, taking advantage of the game.

At halftime, Wang Feng's personal data came to 19 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, and his first triple-double of the season was close to being late.

In the third quarter of the second half, the Clippers were in the game of James, Leonard, and sixth man Luis. Under the leadership of Williams, a wave of counterattacks was set off.

James scored eight points, Leonard scored 14 points on 6-of-7 shooting, and Louis. Williams also scored seven points, and the Clippers scored 40 points in a single quarter to successfully chase the double-digit deficit back to within three.

But as the game progressed to the fourth quarter, Leonard's hand declined, and he only hit 1 of 4 shots under Wang Feng's defense, although James and Louis Williams scored 10 points each, but in the face of the outbreak at the end of the fourth quarter, Wang Feng, who relied on key shooters to score 9 points in the last 2 minutes, was finally defeated.

At 120:116, the Lakers won the opening game by 4 points on the road, and at the same time defeated the arch-rival Clippers to win a big victory.

In the whole game, Wang Feng played 39 minutes and got a triple-double of 34 points, 14 rebounds and 13 assists, and his debut as a starting point guard was quite perfect.

On the Lakers' side, in addition to Wang Feng, there is also Jimmy, who scored 21 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists on 8-of-21 shooting. Butler, Ingram, who had 18 points and 4 rebounds on 7-of-16 shooting.

On the Clippers' side, the highest score was Leonard, who scored 30 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, and then Luis, who scored 23 points on 8-of-14 shooting. Williams.

James's performance in this game was decent, with 24 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists quasi-triple-double data, although it cannot be regarded as a poor performance, but compared with James's status, it did slightly disappoint Clippers fans.

However, the result of this game is acceptable to Clippers fans.

Although they lost the game, the difference between the two teams was only 4 points, which shows that the strength of the two teams is very close.

You must know that the Lakers' lineup is a lineup that has been running in for a whole season last season and won the championship, although Wang Feng's cameo point guard is the first time, but after all, this group of players has tacit cooperation.

The Clippers are different, this is the first official game of James and Leonard, and the two players who are both forwards must go through some run-in and adapt to each other, so the Clippers at this stage are naturally far from reaching the strongest state that this lineup should be.

Once James and Leonard successfully run in and have a good chemistry, it will be difficult to say whether the Lakers will be the opponent of the Clippers at that time!

After the game, both the team's head coach Doug . Rivers, who is still the core of the team, James and Leonard, are very optimistic.

"We have every reason to believe that as time goes by, the team's tacit understanding and chemistry will get better and better, and the strength of the Clippers will get stronger and stronger.

Lakers fans scoffed at this.

What about blowing?

You're grinding, aren't we?

Wang Feng's role as the starting point guard is also a bold attempt by the Lakers, and although the first game worked well, it can be clearly seen that there is also room for improvement.

The confidence of Lakers fans was not unfounded, and it didn't take long for the Lakers to give them a shot in the arm with their performance.

On October 25, the Lakers played at home against the Utah Jazz, and the Lakers won easily 105-86.

On October 27, the Lakers defeated the Charlotte Hornets 121-103 at home, winning three consecutive victories in the opening season.

On October 29, the Lakers defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 117-91 at home.

On November 1, the Lakers traveled to Dallas to challenge the Mavericks and won the game again 119-110.

A hearty five-game winning streak made the whole league speechless, and Wang Feng's performance in these five games made everyone exclaim.

"Oh my God! Wang Feng: Is this going to heaven? ”

In 5 games, Wang Feng averaged 34.8 points, 12.7 rebounds and 11.2 assists per game, averaging a triple-double per game.

Although the average triple-double per game is no longer worth much because of Westbrook, Wang Feng, who has never averaged more than 4 assists per game in previous seasons, suddenly reluctantly increased to the level of averaging double-doubles per game, who is not surprised?

"Wang Feng, who won the NBA championship and the men's basketball World Cup gold medal as a core player, seems to be unstoppable, and according to this situation, the prediction of winning the championship before the start of the season needs to be carefully considered."

At the end of the five games in the regular season, the only two to win five in a row were the Los Angeles Lakers and the New Jersey Nets.

On the Nets' side, the Big Three combination of Durant + George + Irving played quite well.

Although all three of them only average about 25 points per game, the three of them add up to a high score of 75 points!

What's more, the top five opponents of the Nets at the beginning of the game are not very strong, namely the Timberwolves, Knicks, Grizzlies, Pacers and Rockets.

Among these teams, only the Rockets can play a little, especially the second brother Westbrook, who has just arrived on the team, and when he met the former eldest brother Durant, he immediately became energetic, leading the third brother Harden to roll at Durant.

Westbrook chipped up 27 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists, while Harden chipped in 36 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, and the two combined for 63 points, 12 rebounds and 16 assists.

But the Nets' big three Durant, George and Irving scored 31, 28 and 26 points respectively, for a total of 85 points.

Durant, who did not suffer a serious Achilles tendon rupture, is still the top scorer in the league, and his strength is not inferior to James, Antetokounmpo and Leonard.

As long as Irving doesn't pull his hips, the Nets will undoubtedly be a more difficult opponent than the Clippers.

……

For Wang Feng, it doesn't matter how other teams are, what kind of performance and play the Lakers can play is the focus.

In November, the Lakers defeated the Spurs, Bulls, and Heat in the next few games, and started with a straight eight-game winning streak.

On November 10, the Lakers lost to Toronto's Mongols on the road, ending their winning streak.

But what no one expected was that the eight-game winning streak had just ended, and the Lakers, who lost one game, immediately continued to start their winning streak.

The Lakers won all the remaining 10 games in November, without exception, and once again won 10 consecutive games, with a record of 18 wins and 1 loss!

However, in these 10 games, the only tricky opponent the Lakers encountered was the Golden State Warriors, and the rest were teams such as the Kings, Hawks, Grizzlies, Spurs, Thunder, Pelicans and others.

As for the Warriors, although Curry, Thompson, and Green's Big Three are still there, but in the case of the sudden lack of Durant, the team's strength will inevitably decline, and although it can remain in the upper half of the West for more than a month in the regular season, it is no longer as brave as it was in the past, and the record is still below the Lakers, Clippers and Nuggets.

It is worth mentioning that Curry, like another time and space, shouldered the team's offensive banner after Durant's departure, with his average points per game soaring to 30+, and his offensive efficiency has also reached a new high in recent years.

This may be a blessing in disguise.

In Wang Feng's impression, Curry in the 19-20 season, who only played 5 games, underwent surgery for a broken palm, and announced the season reimbursement in advance.

But now, not only the gram comes. Thompson is fine, even Curry has not been injured, the Splash Brothers have participated in more than ten games in the regular season very smoothly, one has an average of 30+ points per game, and the other is also because of Durant's departure, and the team did not use the way of signing first and then changing to get Goji Berry Gowiggins like another time and space, and had to take on the responsibility of scoring more, and the average score per game increased to about 25+.

In the entire Warriors, only Green is the one who has shown more crotch pull after Durant left.

In just a dozen games, Green's degradation is already visible to the naked eye.

He has a lot of possession, but he can't average points per game but can't get a double-double, and his shooting rate has dropped from barely 44% in previous seasons to 39%, and his three-point shooting rate has hit a record low of only 27.9%.

Not only that, but even his best defense is starting to become porous.

Green, who has a salary of $18.54 million, is like an undercover agent planted by other teams in the Warriors, if it weren't for the super efficient performance of the Splash Brothers teaming up to average 55+ points per game, the Warriors' record would have plummeted!
