Chapter 1108 [Three Divine Skills, Happy Getting Together]

After the game, the media compared the two New York teams.

Whether or not the Nets end up winning the championship, from a business standpoint, they've been successful with James.

The Nets' TV ratings for games are up 29 percent from before James joined, making the Nets one of the most watched teams in the NBA. And the Knicks' ratings plummeted by 40%, making them the least watched team in the league.

Total sales of Nets-related merchandise are up 40% from before James joined. According to NBA official rules, teams can retain 75% of the sales revenue in the local market, but need to share the sales outside the local market with the other 29 teams in the league. In addition, the Nets' ticket revenue increased by another 11% this season compared to the previous season.

is also the "Miserable Generation" in 2003, and Anthony and James are no longer comparable.

On the 11th, the Lakers beat the 76ers 133-82 on the road back-to-back, starting with eight consecutive wins.

Guo Xu failed to score high again, he only played 32 minutes, got 31 points, 4 rebounds and 13 assists. At halftime, the Lakers had already led by 33 points, and Guo Xu was suspected of brushing data throughout the third quarter.

He doesn't care so much, if he wants to hit the average 50+ points per game, he must play for a longer time, otherwise the data will drop significantly.

If the media or the black pot says that he swipes the data, just say it, anyway, the pot secrets have a big trick - "You have the ability, you can also brush it!" ”

This trick and "you say he can't do it, you can do it", "I have 101 points in the pot" and called the three magic skills of the pot, which can refute all doubts.

Guo Xu has tried to release water, so that he can play more reasonably on the field, and it is better to eat. It's a pity that he put D'Angelo Russell on the parallel list, and the opponent can't score many points, and the 76ers' outside players are all blacksmiths.

Russell shot 7-of-16, 3-of-7 three-pointers, and no free throws, and got 17 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

Russell didn't have the confidence to try to break through with the ball, he had a height advantage in the face of Guo Xukong, and he didn't dare to shoot continuously when he was put two meters away, and most of the time he looked for teammates to share the ball.

Kobe's stats are even more ugly, this time he is not alone, a total of 5 of 13 shooting, 0 of 5 three-pointers, no free throws, 10 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals. His style of play is simply low-key to the point of being outrageous, and after the game, the media analyzed that he would retire at the end of the season.

In fact, Kobe Bryant has no plans to retire, he has not suffered a serious Achilles tendon tear, and his physical condition is much better than that of the ordinary world. He thinks he has a few more years to play and can beat Abdul-Jabbar's scoring record.

Therefore, Kobe Bryant still has a lot of shots this season, and his lack of shots in this game is because Tyrone Lue arranged Robertson to defend the main defense. Robertson was keen to prove his quality, and he gave it his all to make it difficult for Kobe Bryant to get a shot.

Roberson is a blue-collar swingman who can't play stats and will have to work on the defensive end if he wants to get a big contract in the future. As long as he plays, he will defend seriously and never let out water, which is his specialty to survive.

Since PJ Tucker joined, the Lakers' wing defensive intensity has risen a notch. Josh Richardson's defensive ability is also improving in the team, and he can only be used as a fringe man at the moment. With the addition of veteran Carter and rookie Booker, the Lakers have good wing depth, even if they lack experience, at least at the league's upper middle level, and it is more than enough to clean up the 76ers.

76ers point guard Kemba Walker will be out for two to four weeks with a sprained ankle and will not play. If Walker had been there, the 76ers' offense wouldn't have rotted to this point.

Bryant and Russell's positions overlap, and they are both players who are driven by breakthroughs and shot-oriented. Even if Kobe Bryant didn't have two major injuries, his physical fitness declined very obviously, and his shooting was inaccurate.

This is inevitable, a few years ago, some experts analyzed Kobe's shooting hot zone, thinking that he would become very bad after the age of 35 and gradually reduced to no ball to play. The 37-year-old Kobe Bryant's leg strength is not as strong as it used to be, his jump height is not as high as in the past, and his low arc of his shot will also affect the shooting percentage.

The most important point is that Bryant doesn't have enough explosiveness to play in the low post, which is his efficient area.

Kobe Bryant is known as "Little Malone" because his mid-to-long-range shooting has been unstable, his shooting percentage in the low post and under the basket is high, and he is good at doing the work of a big forward to improve the overall shooting rate. If the interior player can pull out to shoot and respond, Kobe Bryant is a great threat in the low post, whether it is the face frame or the back.

His most famous scoring device, the "step-back jumper," requires excellent waist strength and bounce, agility and coordination, none of which he can now compare to when he was younger.

Kobe Bryant's fitness is also declining, and his lack of fitness will make him have a lower starting point and shooting point in the second half, and he needs more power to score, and he has no advantage against defenders who are much younger than him.

Kobe Bryant's breakaway reduction can only make more options for jump shots and score in an inefficient way. Now there is no team to cover Kobe, and he can be defended by a young swingman with height and arm span, who has a shooting rate of less than 40%. Kobe Bryant wanted to save face, so he could only rely on the hardcore Cormi to shout on the Internet that "the iron is because of the bag".

There weren't many reporters at the 76ers' postgame press conference, and people didn't care what they were doing.

Back then, Jordan said that Kobe was his successor, and the media liked to compare Kobe and Guo Xu to let them evaluate each other. Now there will be no reporter asking this question, it will appear that he is very unskilled, and the editors on Chinese piracy websites who make up news every day do not do this.

The 76ers lost by a big margin again, and the record was at the bottom, and there were not many fans on the Internet who sarcastically ridiculed the stars of the team, at most to express their disappointment with Russell and Millsap.

Over the summer, many expected them to be the saviors of the 76ers and help the team get back to the playoffs.

Russell is understandable for not playing well, he is just an inexperienced rookie, and the team's tactics are not familiar to him, and he can't play the rhythm that he is good at.

Millsap has actually done well, averaging 17 points, 9 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.7 blocks per game in the opening game, shooting 47% from the field.

Walker and Millsap are like a fig leaf for the 76ers, they can see a little bit of coordination, they can play blocking, they can play inside tactics, and they are more efficient than others when they go heads-up.

As long as Walker returns, the 76ers' record should improve a bit. Of course, it can't improve much, after all, about 20 shots per game is about 35% of the shooting rate. One day, if the 76ers win consecutive games and Kobe Bryant leads the team to a good record, that will be big news.

Kobe Bryant and DeAndre Jordan's popularity continues to decline, and they are no longer stars. At the bottom of the season this season, the 76ers are at the bottom for two consecutive seasons, and the management will definitely choose to start rebuilding.

They have salary space to bring in reinforcements, and the only headache is that Jordan Jr. just completed a high-salary contract extension for 4 years and 88 million this summer. A person with no offensive ability earns more than 20 million yuan a year, doesn't like to defend and dismantle, and only stares at rebounds near the restricted area, this person is not so easy to send away.

In the parallel world, Mavericks were very active in digging Jordan Jr., and later Jordan Jr. reversed himself and caused a farce. The Clippers were fined $250,000 by the league for running to Jordan Jr.'s house to lobby him for contract extension.

Jordan Jr., who has the lowest record in the world, has been unnoticed for a contract year, and everyone thinks he is a brush, and he has been embarrassed by pushing his teammates away when grabbing rebounds in the backcourt.

The only positive news is that the rebounding maniac Jordan Jr. gets along with Kobe Bryant very happily, he is the interior star who has the best relationship with Kobe, and almost all previous interior stars have conflicts with Kobe.
