Last season, the Lakers were the bottom team in the league, even with the addition of Xie Chen, but in this season, everyone's expectations for the Lakers are generally not high.

The Lakers, including coach Walton, have the team's goal for this season to enter the playoffs, but Xie Chen feels that it is not enough to just enter the playoffs, if he enters the playoffs as eighth as last season, maybe he will meet the Warriors in the first round, the Warriors' invincible army is not the Toronto Raptors, Xie Chen currently has no confidence to win the Warriors, so he still has to try to strive for a better ranking, and Xie Chen has been robbed of a regular season MVP by Curry last season, One of his big goals this season is to regain the MVP, so the team's record is important.

CCTV, host Yang Jian said: "Welcome to watch the first opening game of the 2016-2017 NBA season, today is the Los Angeles Lakers home game against the Houston Rockets, the Lakers have always been a team that Chinese fans are very familiar with and love, the Lakers during the Kobe period also once represented the youth of our generation, but now the Lakers have changed their masters, he is Xie Chen, who won two championships in a row, the game will start immediately, let us ask Yang Yi to tell you about the changes in the league this season, in addition, Today will also be Zhou Qi's NBA debut. ”

Yang Yi said: "Yes, this is also the first game of the Rockets, Zhou Qi will appear in this game, but it will not be the starter, so the audience and friends have to wait patiently, this offseason is destined to be unpeaceful, various transfer news emerge in endlessly, Xie Chen transferred to the Lakers, which is already surprising, who knew that Durant chose to join the Warriors!" Including Wade, who played for the Heat for 13 years, also left his loyal team, I think the NBA has now officially entered a new era, and the superstars of the past have to always win championships in one team, such as Jordan and Kobe, but since LeBron James started this trend, it has become a normal thing for superstars to change teams, I think in the future in the era of Ingram, this format will be more popular, and everyone will choose a way that is easier to succeed, of course, Except for Xie Chen, he is different from others, other stars are all united with giants, thighs hugging thighs, where is he weak, I am not happy to partner with you if you are strong. ”

Yang Jian interjected at this time: "But most of the current strong teams in the league are composed of two or three superstars, do you think Xie Chen's Lakers have the possibility of winning the championship?" ”

Yang Yi smiled: "In the NBA, nothing is impossible, at the beginning of last season, who would have thought that in the end it would be the New York Knicks who won the championship?" Who would have thought that Xie Chen would defeat the warrior with 73 wins? I don't dare to predict the prospects of the Lakers, after all, they haven't played a game yet, and they have to play for a while, I think it will be more objective to evaluate the Lakers, Xie Chen still has a magical side, and I heard that there is also a hidden ability, but, the Rockets I feel that this season is completely hopeless, the Houston Rockets re-signed a contract with James Harden to keep him in the Rockets, and after the Warcraft Howard left, they brought Nene , Ryan Anderson , Eric Gordon, but as far as the current lineup is concerned, You won't be able to get much in the regular season, and if you make the playoffs, it's hard to play in the first round. ”

Yang Yi is still very pessimistic about the prospects of the Rockets, in fact, as far as the current situation in the West is concerned, the Rockets have a slim chance of winning the championship after such changes.

The game started quickly, the Lakers' starting lineup was: Xie Chen, Ingram, Rohr Deng, Randle, Mozgov, and the Rockets' starting lineup was Beverley, James Harden, Ariza, Anderson and Nene .

As soon as the game began, all the fans on the Internet began to rejoice.

"After waiting for nearly five months, I can finally see Xie Chen pretending to be forced again!"

"I bet Xie Chen will score more than 50 points this time, and he will make his fastest sprint!"

"His speed is no secret, it is certain to use it, guessing Xie Chen's score is not as good as guessing Ingram's score. If this kid is really a piece of material, then we can still look forward to the Lakers this season. ”

"Why is the screen full of Xie Chen! Didn't anyone mention my bearded brother? I heard that he practiced hard in the offseason! ”

"Do you want us to mention the nightclub and let the little brother go to the nightclub to rob Xiao Ma Long? Just because Marlone Jr. tweeted that Harden's training camp was too expensive? ”

"You can never stop it, Curry's three points, James' two points, Harden's one point."

“…… Let's continue to talk about Xie Chen! ”

Staples Center, the game has officially begun, the Rockets jumped the ball, Harden dribbled the ball unhurriedly, or as calm and steady as before, every star will practice hard in the offseason, but Harden's training is far less than Curry, James and others, because he has been in a situation where he has not been competitive for the championship for a long time, he is the closest to the Rockets to the championship is the Western Conference Finals, and he didn't even enter the finals, so the desire for the championship is far less than Curry, who has played in the finals, But it can't be said that Harden has no ambition at all, and now he is the team's ace superstar, and he wants to be the scoring champion and MVP this season.

James Harden's step-back shot was still accurate, hitting a jumper as soon as he came up.

It was the Lakers' turn to attack, and the fans on the scene also began to cheer, hoping to see Xie Chen, the first person in the league, as soon as possible, but Xie Chen didn't plan to score by himself as soon as he came up, and now this Lakers team is undoubtedly Xie Chen's team alone, and no accident, Xie Chen will definitely become the league's scoring champion this season, but in the first game, he still wants to hone more rookie Ingram, and Xie Chen planned to make Ingram's debut brilliant, and score at least 20 points.

A simple cooperation between Xie Chen and Ingram, after Ingram received the ball, he shot directly from the middle distance, but he didn't expect Ingram to hit directly for the first time!

"Hit the first shot! It was Ingram's first scoring in the NBA! It is estimated that many fans and friends are not familiar with this player, he is the star of this NBA, and he is a player with great potential and talent. Yang Jian introduced.

hit the first shot, which Ingram didn't expect, after the shot, Ingram smiled gratefully at Xie Chen, this kind of cooperation is not a temporary intention of the two on the court, but they have trained a lot last night, plus when Ingram shot this time, basically there was no interference, and Ingram's mentality was also very good, so it succeeded.

It was a good start, but hitting the first ball easily doesn't mean it's going to be easy, and Ingram knows the road ahead is tough.

Ingram had a lot of chances at the start of the game, and halfway through the first quarter, he turned out to be the team's top scorer, which surprised many.

Yang Jian said: "Ingram is in good shape today, if he continues to play like this, it shouldn't be a problem for him to score 30 points in his NBA debut, right?" ”

Yang Yi said: "Yes, Ingram is tall and has long arms and accurate shooting, and is regarded as a copy of Durant, plus Xie Chen intends to let Ingram score today, I think Ingram's debut data will be very good, I am afraid it will surpass the champion Simmons, last season, Porzingis, who was selected in the fourth place, was trained by Xie Chen to be the best rookie, I think Ingram will be even more amazing than Porzingis last season." ”

Ingram's score made the Lakers fans at the scene excited, this is the future of the Lakers! Even Kobe, who was sitting on the sidelines, nodded frequently, as if he was very satisfied with the rookie.

However, when the Rockets found out that the Lakers were interested in training this rookie boy, the defense against Ingram also became stronger, and it was replaced by Ariza to defend him, Ariza first used huge defensive pressure to force Ingram to stop the ball, and then let him pass the ball wrong, and then, he cut the ball directly from Ingram's hand, and then scored quickly.

"Ingram is still too young, a rookie is a rookie."

"We can't handle this level of defense, so how can we expect Ingram to play against the Warriors in the playoffs? Hurry up, Ingram! ”

It can be seen that the successive mistakes also made Ingram's mood low, Xie Chen felt that it was nothing, whether it was a steal or a block, mistakes were always inevitable, fortunately, they still had a whole season waiting for Ingram to improve.

Harden is in good shape today, he has been scoring non-stop, gradually, the Rockets have a tendency to expand the score, in order not to let the score pull too big, affecting the team's confidence in chasing points, Xie Chen also had to shoot, after a continuous change of direction, get rid of Beverley's defense, shoot three points, the ball!

"Oh my God, it's so easy to watch Xie Chen score one-on-one! casually got rid of the goal directly, as long as there was only one person in front of Xie Chen, I had no doubt about the result of this goal. ”

"That's right, Xie Chen's scoring is like playing, and this three-point shooting posture is also very casual, not like the previous Curry-style shooting."

Xie Chen's scoring, in everyone's opinion, is very casual and easy, after all, Xie Chen's scoring ability has been vividly reflected in the past two seasons, and this three-point shot, Xie Chen has no systematic ability at all, Stephen Curry's three-point ability and Maddy's three-point ability are useless, facing Beverley, in the first game of the regular season, there is no need for that, he uses his own ability.

Xie Chen has entered the NBA for the third season, since he got the ability of the system, Xie Chen did not completely rely on the ability of the system and wasted training, in the past two seasons, his training is no less than that of any player, plus his projection is a big strength, it is still easy to hit a three-point shot.

In the second quarter, Zhou Qi, who was highly anticipated by Chinese basketball fans, finally played!

Yang Jian said excitedly: "Zhou Qi is finally on the field!" He also carries the hope of Chinese basketball, everyone hopes that he can gain a foothold in the NBA like Yao Ming in the Rockets and become an excellent main player. ”

After Zhou Qi debuted, even in the away game in Los Angeles, there were Chinese fans holding signs to cheer for Zhou Qi, Xie Chen and Zhou Qi have also met in China, and they know the hardships of yellow people playing here, after Zhou Qi came on the court, Xie Chen also stretched out his hand and encouraged Zhou Qi.

However, this friendly high-five does not mean that Xie Chen will give way to Zhou Qi.

For fresh rookie rookies, Xie Chen has always been unwilling......

On the first defense after Zhou Qi came on the court, Xie Chen directly broke into the inside line, and then faced Zhou Qi and ended the attack with a dunk!

"Buckled! Xie Chen dunked! ”

The fans at the scene were also excited, everyone had been waiting for Xie Chen's slam dunk performance, but Xie Chen didn't seem to have entered a state of enthusiasm in this game, but he didn't expect that as soon as Zhou Qi appeared on the stage, it made Xie Chen want to play.

Zhou Qi stretched out his hand to interfere with Xie Chen, and there was no particularly strong defense, after Xie Chen successfully dunked, he patted Zhou Qi in a friendly way, and then said to him the words that he would say every time he played against a rookie: "Welcome to the NBA." ”

"Ugh." Zhou Qi was a little confused, he was already nervous, who knew that as soon as he came up, Xie Chen was about to dunk, and he was really scared when he was defending just now.

In fact, this time for dunking, Xie Chen still did not have the ability to use the system, and it could be seen that Zhou Qi was indeed very nervous.

Zhou Qi and the Lakers' rookie Ingram have a common problem, that is, the thin body is slightly insufficient, Ingram is okay, he is an outside player, he can float on the outside to shoot, but Zhou Qi is such a big and tall man, he can't play on the outside, right? And then there's a good shot, and a player of this height has to make the physical confrontation strong.

After Zhou Qi appeared on the court, the ball was immediately passed to him, and now that the Rockets are ahead, Zhou Qi can also play a dozen appropriately, after all, Ingram over there has already shot a lot of baskets.

Zhou Qi also made a close-range shot after doing a few shaking movements, but the shot missed, although the first shot missed, fortunately, Zhou Qi was very active, rushed to the basket for the first time to grab the rebound, and really let him grab it, when Zhou Qi wanted to make up the basket, he was pulled down by Xie Chen, the referee blew the whistle, and Xie Chen sent Zhou Qi to the free throw line.

Zhou Qi hit both free throws, thanks to Xie Chen, as a rookie, he also scored less than a minute after he came on the court.

At halftime, the Lakers were still 10 points behind, and although they had the strongest player in the league, Xie Chen, the Lakers' game seemed to look no different from last season, and the Lakers still did not reflect any strong team's state and breath.

But that's not all going to be the same in the second half. (To be continued.) )
