15 days later.

The preseason of the new NBA season has attracted a lot of attention, but because the preseason itself has a strong run-in lineup, the choice of rotation order, and the characteristics of newcomers, the strong teams that have attracted much attention have not been dazzling.

At this time, the teams have played about 5 to 6 preseason games, and among the four most high-profile teams, the Celtics are 2-3, the Suns are 3-3, the Lakers are slightly better 4-1, and the Mavericks are 2-4.

All four teams underwent a major overhaul over the summer, adding at least one All-Star-caliber player at one position. However, in pre-season, there wasn't a lot of time between these new and veteran players playing at the same time, around half-time.

Limited time, limited data, and at this time, it is not possible to see the changes that each team has brought to the team itself after the transaction. In contrast, the situation of the Lakers is slightly better, firstly, because Jackson, the Zen master who returned to coaching, seems to have found a way to integrate Kobe and Gasol, and Kobe Bryant has also slightly let go of his paranoia, and the cooperation between the team's three highs is impressive, and there is already a trace of the shadow of a strong team in the new season.

On the Celtics side, the situation that everyone is worried about still appears, the big three are all old players, each of them has the experience of leading the team alone, and there is not much problem on the defensive end when integrated, everyone performs their duties, and the team shows the true character of a strong defensive team. However, on the offensive end, it is a little jerky, especially the point guard Rajon Rondo, who has not yet fully grown up, and has not yet found an answer to the question of how to distribute the ball between the three big guys.

In addition, the Celtics bench is full of veterans, and the new generation of players has no reliable individual skills, and they are still defense-oriented, and the offense is quite grinding, and there is no suitable scoring point.

For a moment, there was a question about whether the Celtics should let Ray Allen play sixth man. The talk of leading the bench to steal points is very loud. Although he knows that with Ray Allen's status and ability, it is too condescending to play as a substitute, but at the moment, this seems to be the best way to solve the Celtics' offensive problems, and there is no shortage of supporters in the community.

As for the Suns, the reason why things are slightly better is simple - Steve Nash.

With a super lineup like Ragabel, Grant Hill, Smalls, and Howard, Nash is like a fish in water, and the shooting rights that everyone is worried about do not exist at all in the eyes of the Suns who are attacking at super speed.

Countless fast breaks, countless tsunami-like three-point shots. Countless rebounds and counter-attacks, air relays under the basket, and Barbossa's lightning raid off the bench...... All of this indicates that the Suns in the new season will become the most terrifying force in the West, at least on the offensive end, there is absolutely no solution.

And the Suns' habitual collapse of interior and exterior defense caused by Xiao Si and Nash's personal defensive deficiencies is also growing in Rajabel's personal defense. Grant Hill's defensive experience, as well as Howard's single-handedness, have been greatly mitigated.

In the current starting lineup of the Suns, Ragabel and Howard are the big guards inside and outside, and a scorer with the ball on the outside. A man who was cruising around and sending out countless defensive blocks, harvesting offensive and defensive rebounds with Smalls, supplemented by Grant Hill's big-picture vision and defensive experience, the originally criticized defensive problems seemed to be solved overnight.

No matter how Nash and Smalls get lost in each other's pick-and-rolls and counter-runs. There's always Ragabel and Howard to wipe their butts. From time to time, Grant Hill, who plays the best defensive performance of his career, will also make some unexpected and surprising moves. It's hard to believe that the squad is at its peak.

In addition, the Suns' biggest problem on the offensive end - Nash dependency - has also been solved to some extent with the introduction of Grant Hill. Hill, who was originally an all-rounder with the ball on the outside, was only behind Big Birdie before LeBron appeared, and was one of the best forward playmakers in NBA history, and even Pippen, the second millennium, is difficult to compare with him. Those triple-doubles at the beginning of his career are the best proof of this.

Now with the Suns, Hill has increased his off-ball running, worked open three-pointers, and when Nash is not on the floor, he will take over the team's offensive distribution responsibilities and lead the team's offense with Barbossa, a leading point grabber.

The new season of the Suns seems to be promising, dazzling and frightening.

As for the calves, the problem is more serious. Kidd, a veteran who has just arrived on the team, has a super ability to revitalize the offense with one hand, but it is difficult to play because of the Mavericks' own preference for playing alone.

How many times on the court, Kidd picked up the backcourt rebound, pushed the fast break with his old legs, and only after coming to the front court did he find that he was actually the person with the best sense of fast attack in the whole team, and there was no teammate around him at all, and he missed the opportunity to break fast.

"Changing the core point guard, and changing players in other positions, are two completely different concepts. The replacement of scorers, defenders, and interior cores can all be quickly completed in a short period of time. Changing the ball carrier generally means that the team's offensive rhythm and style have to be adjusted to a certain extent. So it's not surprising that Kidd is not adaptable. ”

This argument of the experts has won the hearts of the people.

However, there is a strange thing.

The Philadelphia 76ers also changed their core point guards in the summer, and in more than two seasons, they have replaced three core point guards in the East, and they have not encountered any adaptation problems at all.

“YES！ Win!! Won again!! ”

In the Phoenix electrical appliance store, while waiting for the Suns preseason to start, Boss Su naturally watched the 76ers' game first.

As soon as the whistle blew at the end of the game, Boss Su raised his hands and shouted excitedly, causing Su Yin beside him to look at his father angrily, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

The strength of the Suns' new season made Boss Su excited, and at the same time, the progress shown by the Philadelphia 76ers and his "prospective son-in-law" in the preseason also made Boss Su very happy.

"This lineup, on a stage like the preseason, is incomprehensible!"

Watching the statistics of the team's main players broadcast on the TV screen, Boss Su seemed full of confidence, and bragged to his baby daughter with a smile.

Played 6 preseason games, Philadelphia 76ers, won all, the only in the league.

In the game that just ended, the 76ers beat the Heat away, and none of the main players played more than 24 minutes, and the situation on the court has been under the control of the 76ers.

Starting power forward Chen Mu, the core of the team, 22 minutes, 12 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks, to put it mildly, played with ease.

Starting small forward Iguodala, the team's outside leader, an all-around wing, 14 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals in 24 minutes, from the beginning to the end of the court, there has not been a reluctant shot.

Outside artillery Korver, 12 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist in 22 minutes, made 6 shots, all three-pointers, and hit 4, all of which were empty.

Center Durham Porter, 7 points, 8 rebounds and 1 block in 23 minutes, is decent, clocking in and out of work.

Sixth man Louis Williams, 20 minutes, 15 points, 1 rebound, 3 assists and 1 steal, faster than all the players in the game, as if he had turned on the gear.

Rodni Carney, a point-stealing weapon off the bench, played 19 minutes, had 13 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, and contributed three flying dunks, two of which were aerial relays.

Willie Green, under the pressure of the new generation, also got 16 minutes of playing time in the preseason, and actually grabbed 10 points, half of which was an easy fast-break layup.

Backup power forward Reggie Evans grabbed 11 rebounds in 22 minutes, but did not make a single shot, and the score was zero.

Substitute center Milicic grasped part of the offensive initiative of the bench inside, scoring 11 points, 5 rebounds and 2 blocks in 21 minutes, which is quite a hint of recovery.

Seven members of the 76ers scored double-doubles, and the whole game scored 122 points in horror, and the all-round three-dimensional blow made the Heat team, whose lineup was completely aged, unable to parry.

Behind the seven players who scored double-doubles, Kyle Lowry, the 76ers in charge of the new season, had 9 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 steals and zero turnovers in 24 minutes.

That's right, zero mistakes.

The whole army of 76 people is a soldier, and the fierce bandit lineup led by Chen Mu has officially entered people's field of vision from this moment.

What will this team achieve in the new season?

Will they make it to the playoffs? Will it continue last season's situation of being strong and not strong and weak and not weak?

If they make the playoffs, do they have a chance to be spoilers? Or do you still accompany the prince to study, and go home to fish after you have a good time?

Similar discussions have begun to emerge online.

"Dad, why do you say that Brother Mu has no solution in the preseason? Can't we continue to do this in the regular season? ”

Now Su Yin is already a standard fan, but he still can't quickly understand his father's arguments. There's no way, Boss Su has watched basketball for decades, and his basketball knowledge is comparable to that of a semi-professional, although it is not as good as Fei Bruising, but it is definitely top-notch among ordinary fans, and it is normal for Su Yin not to understand.

"Because the problem is still there." Boss Su said with a smile: "In the new season, your brother's 76ers' record will definitely improve, especially at the beginning of the season, it is estimated that they will play a more dazzling record than last season." After all, now that the schedule is out, their opponents at the beginning of the season are not strong, and it is not a big problem to win. ”

"But as the season progresses, a decline in results is inevitable, for the same reason as last season, the 'dividends' that the new squad brings to the team at the beginning of the season and are unfamiliar with the opponent will be quickly consumed. After that, the opponent starts to target, and it becomes much more difficult to win. In addition, the most critical thing is ......"

Boss Su looked at his baby daughter and said, "They still don't have star-level attackers." ”

"Is this a problem that will never be solved? Depressed......" Xiao Nizi pouted.

"There is still a solution, it's just ......" Boss Su's eyes fluttered, and finally settled on Chen Mu, who had not yet walked out of the court on the screen, and was shaking hands with Wade and hugging.

"I just don't know if your brother Mu can evolve as quickly as ...... previous two seasons!" (To be continued......)
