Chapter 1232 (1/2)
The cheers were deafening. Although it was just a regular season game at the beginning of the season, in link's opinion, the attention level was completely playoff level.
In fact, even if the Grizzlies are not in good condition and the Lakers are in good condition, the game between the Grizzlies and the Lakers is very important.
After all, the Grizzlies and the Lakers are direct rivals in the west end. In the end, only one person can be left for the championship.
As a result, most fans also see the game as a preview of the Western Conference finals.
And this is the first time this season that both sides have tested each other's strength.
Everyone stood up and cheered for the Lakers.
Looking at James in the Laker's uniform, link is really not used to it.
I didn't expect that after so many years, I was still playing against James.
James is still very strong. You can't see him as a 36 year old man.
But no matter how strong, James's state is also declining. James is no longer as capable as any other person before.
But it didn't get in the way, because James was once again surrounded by a group of right-hand people.
Both sides were standing near the center circle, and the Laker lineup caught the eye of link.
Point guard Bradley, 3D guard, doesn't take possession of the ball. He can not only control the ball as he likes, but also play a maximum role. It's tailor-made for James.
Point guard ”Xiandan” Denny green, veteran top 3D. There was a period of low tide in the spurs a few years ago, but last season it was rejuvenated at the Raptors.
He's definitely the title jigsaw that all teams in the league are looking forward to.
Small forward James needless to say, power forward Anthony Davis, is also the strongest inside partner James has worked with. Even, it can be said that he is the strongest partner James has ever worked with!
It must be admitted that Anthony Davis is a better individual than bosh and lefoy. His defense is not Owen's, and his range is beyond Wade's reach.
Even if the title of ”top four in active service” is placed on Davis, there is no problem.
center Javier McKee, a blue collar worker who can run, jump and do dirty work, also meets the needs of the Lakers.
On the bench, also sitting Rondo, pop and Kuzma strength of the players.
The coaching group headed by Vogel and Kidd is also more mature than the former young Walton.
Yes, James's personal abilities have declined. He may have been unable to carry two or three people with no scruples as he did in those years, and then buckle on other people's heads.
However, the strength of James's team has not weakened.
Now this Laker, may be more difficult than the heat and Cavaliers.
For the Grizzlies, because of Jamie Green's injury, the Grizzlies can only continue to play in the double tower lineup.
This is also the most passive point of Grizzlies today.
Anthony Davis has an advantage no matter who he faces.
If jerichael green is here, grizzlies will still be able to fight with Davis in the car to consume Davis as much as possible
but now grizzly position 4 is short of major general, which gives Davis more opportunities.
Link admitted that the game was not easy to play, and the Grizzlies had to work harder to win.
But it doesn't mean that Grizzlies will be caught with their hands tied. What falls off the altar is just the wishful thinking of others!
Both sides are ready to start and everyone's eyes are focused on the court.
The referee throws the ball into the air, and the battle between the two sides to prove their own strength officially begins!
McGee with his stronger ability to bounce, from Gasol to fight for the right to attack the ball.
James pushed slowly with the ball, and the real point guard of the team was James, not Bradley.
If in the past, James estimated that the first goal will be directly one-on-one with link.
But now James knows that's the worst option. Now he and link fight hard, can not take any advantage.
So James gave the ball to Bradley. Sure enough, the Lakers really want to catch Conley!
Bradley broke through immediately after receiving the ball. Although he is not a scorer, considering that both rookies can play Conley to death, the Lakers think Bradley should be OK.
”I'm not going to lie to you, to be honest, this year has been a year of mental and physical exhaustion in my career,” Conley said in an interview after the last game against the bulls
Conley's condition is really bad.
Bradley's speed is not fast, but he has a strong ability to fight. When he was still playing NCAA, the scouts thought Bradley could defend NBA level guards, which is enough to show how strong Bradley's fighting ability is.
Bradley ran Conley all the way to the basket, and just when he thought he was going to succeed, Jokic was back in time.He flicked Bradley's layup back with a flick of his hand.
”Beautiful cover, joachic's help was very timely. It seems that the Grizzlies have found a way to deal with Conley's decline in defense efficiency. The Lakers would be wrong to think they could still have an advantage with Bradley
Mike Brin, on the stage, laughed, thinking the Grizzlies were going to die?
