Chapter 548 [Best Record, Easy]
Yang Rui attracted the attention of many fans with his championship declaration and made headlines.
Only a very few people say that he is arrogant, and most people wait to see him work new miracles. The Raptors' record record was also won by him, and it seems that he can't say anything crazy.
The media hopes that the coaches and players of other teams can stand up and scold Yang Rui, that is the big news, but no one dares to do this, and when asked about the Lakers, they all say that the Lakers are the best team.
In the NBA, strength and confidence are always directly proportional.
The Lakers' open practice sessions attracted more media and fans, and as usual, they were held at the Staples Center, with local stations live.
The Clippers, who are also in Los Angeles, do not have this kind of treatment, no wonder the fans are biased, the Clippers are a magical team.
Since moving to Los Angeles in 1984, the Clippers have never gotten rid of their status as a fish-belly team, and they are completely rotten. After Donald Sterling became owner, they only made the playoffs once in the 1991-92 season. This kind of team, except for people with masochistic tendencies, who will become a fan?
The Lakers played a very exciting intra-team confrontation, both sides had a fast rhythm of offense and defense, no defense, players staged a lot of dunks back and forth, and even Yao Ming went down a fast attack to show his solid dribbling skills.
Teammates have a tacit understanding, they won't go all out to steal, and they don't care if they reach out for a while. As long as Yao Ming doesn't make mistakes with the ball, he can perform. He dribbled under his crotch and dribbled behind him, then turned around and dunked with one hand, and his movements were very smooth, and the fans who watched were stunned.
Iguodala was the best performer from the outside, staging eight dunks, catching big windmills in the air, changing hands behind his back, and folding his back to feast the eyes of fans.
On the rookie side, Ellis also performed well, with a strong impact, and he could pull a lever to make a layup when he burst to the basket. Louis Williams is inferior, poor confrontation, a little bit can't let go, needs to work, he won't get too many opportunities to play in the new season, he will be the No. 1 fringe man, the last choice.
After that, in the training camp, the players began to practice their tactics.
The starting tactics have been formed, and they have not changed from last season, that is, they rely on the individual ability of the stars to play a small range of cooperation, but Mo Williams has been promoted from the bench to the starter.
Last season, in the second quarter of the season, he needed an offensive point with the ball, and it was very suitable for Williams to play off the bench, and the team signed Ellis, Yang Rui did not plan to let this man who can rush idle, and he could complement the big point guard Damon Jones who is 191cm tall.
Odom, Dior, and Ariza are sent to the front, and the three are not slow, and the counterattack will be sharper than last season.
The fringe of the team are Diop, Wharton, Luis, Barnes.
Restricting free agent Diop from entering the free agency until September, and it was the Mavericks who offered him the biggest contract, 6 million for three years, with a team option for the third year.
The Lakers management decisively matched this contract, although Diop is terrible on offense, playing little time, usually only playing a few minutes, but he must have a player of his type, and sending him on the court when the opponent has a strong man who is good at strong offense can reduce the pressure on Yao Ming.
In the preseason game in October, Yang Rui asked the "drug combination" to play soy sauce, and each game only lasted about 15 minutes.
Yao Ming didn't cut many times, mainly after blocking and dismantling, waiting for the ball to return in the middle and shoot three points.
He only practiced one point in the middle of the three-point shooting in the summer, and the effect was remarkable, and the shooting rate in the middle of the training can be compared with Kobe, which is jaw-dropping, and the shooting rate is about 70%. However, Kobe Bryant can also shoot in other positions, Yao Ming is in the middle, and the three points in other positions are not accurate.
Yang Rui's preseason focused on the outside line, and the inside line mainly relied on Rashid, Odom, and Dio, and Dior, who played the most minutes, only played 26 minutes.
The good performers on the outside are Williams and Iguodala, who have trained with Ariza and Wharton in the summer and have improved.
The two also benefit tactically, star teammates can attract the center of gravity of the defense, and the two are often the ones who are let go, even if they don't let go, they can get the opportunity to go out of place and go heads-up inside, and they can play with ease.
On the basis of the original blocking and triangular offense, Yang Rui has increased the proportion of the Eagles' offense. The opposition joint defense shrank to the periphery of the penalty area, looking for three-point opportunities on both wings and front. If the opponent's defense is extended, then the big man pulls out, and the wing and baseline players cut into the air and attack the basket.
The Lakers have a 6-1 record in the preseason, with their only loss coming to the Suns. Bryant played only 15 minutes, Rashid was suspended, and the Lakers clearly had room to spare.
The Suns didn't make a big trade in the summer, adding small forward James Jones who can shoot three-pointers and guard Eddie House. If the interior line failed to make a trade with the Knicks, there would be no Kurt Thomas in Yang Rui's previous life, and he could only rely on O'Neal Jr. Coming off the bench inside signings Brian Grant, who was pardoned by the Heat, and white center Meme.
The overall strength of the Suns is still a little stronger than Yang Rui's previous life, although there is no Dior, but Grant Hill is definitely better.
The Spurs, the Heat, and the Bulls all have reservations, and the Lakers have the best preseason record and rank first in the first power list.
It is worth mentioning that the Knicks' ranking has risen a lot, just because the "Zen Master" joined to 14th, and many people are optimistic that they can make the playoffs.
In the summer, the Knicks signed rookie Bynum, Nate Robinson, libero Jim Jackson, and also poached supersonic forward Radmanovic, plus Ben Wallace, Marbury, power power forward Ocella Harington, small forward Quentin Richardson and others, and it seems to be promising.
Yang Rui feels that the wisdom of the "Zen Master" is going to be ruined in the Knicks, and it is difficult to lead the team to the playoffs.
Jim Jackson and Richardson's state has declined, and they will pull out jump shots, Radmanovic has gone downhill after leaving the SuperSonics, several players on the inside have no offensive power and can't pull away, Bynum is too young to practice slowly, and the Knicks have too many weaknesses.
Of course, the "Zen Master" is better than the "Assassin" Thomas, at least he didn't go to the Bulls to sign and trade for Eddie Curry, in Yang Rui's previous life, Thomas overdrafted the future, sent two first-round picks, in exchange for a fat man who didn't defend, and this fat man was unfortunately found to have a heart attack last season.
When Curry joined the Knicks, he wondered, is Thomas the father who my son wants to raise but can't wait?
Because of Martin, the Nets have tight salary space on the team, so they directly gave up Curry and let him enter the free market, and sign him if he wants to.
Then, Dawson, the general manager of the Rockets, was like digging Morris Taylor back then, with a discerning eye, and signed Curry for 56 million in 6 years, and many people in Houston thought that he was here to save it.
On March 28 of this year, Rocket boss Alexander gave Dawson an indefinite contract in reward for his 25 years of service to the Space City. Dawson is admirable in personality, controversial in business, and is a big hole.
Dawson naively thought that as long as he found someone to help Curry lose weight and control his weight, he would be a very good interior player, after all, he showed amazing talent in the draft, averaging 16.1 points and 5.4 rebounds per game with the Nets last season, a career high.
The problem is that a 213CM big center plays 30 minutes and averages 5.4 rebounds and 0.9 blocks per game. And how easy is it to lose weight? There is an example in Yang Rui's family.
At the end of October, the Lakers had a two-day holiday, and on November 1, they played their home opener against the Suns in the same district.
