NBA: Starting off with Chamberlain's talent

Los Angeles

staples center
The multipurpose arena is home to the Lakers, Clippers, WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks, NHL's Los Angeles Kings and AFL's Los Angeles Avengers.

Many world-class events have been held here, such as the 2002 US Figure Skating Championships, four Grammy Award ceremonies, the WTA Tour and more.

The facilities in the arena are complete, the decoration is exquisite, and there is nobility everywhere, which complements the luxurious style of Los Angeles.

Even in the preseason games, more than 1 spectators were packed.

They are here today to watch the Lakers' "F4" debut.

Before the game, O'Neal accepted an interview with ESPN reporters.

"Shaquille, what do you think of the Warriors, a newcomer from China? By the way, I still remember your first match against Yao Shark, the champion of China, in January this year. You were blocked a few times at the beginning."

Polite, really polite.

Shaquille O'Neal pretended to be relaxed and said: "Oh, I don't know what bullshit you are talking about. I beat Yao to the ground in that game. If I remember correctly, I scored 36 points and 13 points. A rebound. By the way, I abused him in the second game in March!"

"But you lost your first show with Yao, and you were blocked twice in a row at the beginning."

O'Neal was asked by reporters and laughed.

"Hehe, you are so smart!"

This idiot successfully teased his nerves before the game.

He actually questioned his strength.

These unscrupulous media have finished hyping the Yaosha duel, and now they are starting to hype some shit "You Shark duel".

You know, the other party is just a child!
Even if they did it on purpose, his strength as the number one center forward in the universe is unquestionable.

In the first two games of the preseason, the Warriors will play against the Lakers who formed the Super F4.

"Oh, it seems that O'Neill is a little disappointed. Before the game, he said that he would torture Huaxia high school students. But the opponent was Clifford Robinson, Cliff's uncle who was born in 1966."

"Haha, yes, I like Uncle Cliff because he shoots three-pointers well. It seems that Huaxia's rookie hasn't gained the team's trust yet."

The game also started quickly under the jokes of the sideline commentators.

Zhang You was placed on the bench, and Uncle Robinson went to take O'Neal hard.

At the beginning, O'Neal jumped to the ball easily.

Payton and Kobe partnered in the backcourt, and Malone and O'Neal partnered inside.

Such a sense of oppression is really too heavy for the Warriors.

The Warriors' Van Exel and Richardson's backcourt double shot is very good.

You know, Nick Van Exel was Kobe's former boss.

It's just that as soon as the OK group arrives, he has to abdicate for Yin, just like Zhang You now.

He was a little dissatisfied with the arrangement of the team.

In the Lakers training, he asked for one-on-one many times, directly blowing Kobe.

This allowed Kobe at the time to know what the NBA was, and at the same time the two also forged a little bridge, which led to the lunatic being sent away.

Bryant talked about it years later, saying, "The first guy who kicked my ass was Nick Van Exel, and he pretty much destroyed me in practice. He was just there talking nonstop,' If you come near me, I'll teach you how to be a man', it really drives me crazy."

just now.

But even in the preseason, Kobe didn't have the slightest intention to let the person who beat him up against Zeng Jin.

Kobe was in and out of the court frequently during this time, and the court became part of his outlet.

Kobe's first goal was to kill Nick Van Exel.

"boom!"

A violent backhand dunk after a strong rush.

Van Exel was a little depressed and emotional.

It used to be fun to abuse Kobe, but it is different now.

Life is impermanent!
Although Kobe had trouble off the court, he remained absolutely focused on the court.

After the Warriors failed to score, it was the connection between Payton and Malone, which proved to everyone that they were not old.

O'Neill then dominated the inside smash.

The Lakers showed their strength to the fullest.

The Lakers fans cheered happily.

Robinson and Cheney partnered inside and were directly penetrated by O'Neal and Malone.

The two big guys of the Lakers are not fuel-efficient lamps.

Robinson was turned around by O'Neal and dunked directly. Cheney turned around and shot face-to-face after being hit by Malone.

On the perimeter, Payton still has gas in his tank.

After he cooperated with Kobe's air cut, Kobe caught the ball and backhanded the two plus one in the air and beat the lunatic brother into a fool again.

The Warriors were beaten 32-60 in the first half
In 03, the league averaged 90-100 points per game, scoring 60 points at halftime is a big score.

Even the sideline commentator was joking: "The warm-up match has entered garbage time."

The Lakers players walked to the bench with a relaxed expression.

"Crazy" Van Exel on the Warriors side shook his head a little frustrated.

It looks like the crazy years are over.

Everyone is an old thing, how many years younger than they are.

I don't know what medicine Ma Long and Payton took.

And former teammate Kobe is no longer a rookie, his skills and physical fitness seem to have reached the pinnacle of his career.

The guy who was traded to the Lakers on draft night by the Hornets is slowly replacing O'Neal as the leader of the Lakers!
In this game, Zhang You was replaced for less than 5 minutes.

At the same time, the Lakers are also on the bench.

Zhang You passed the ball lightly in the interior, took 2 assists at random, and did not score.

In the end, the Warriors were defeated by a big score of 78 to 115.

The Lakers are also lacking interest.

But it can be seen that all their players are very relaxed.

After the game, the reporter interviewed O'Neal who scored 17 points, 20 rebounds and 8 blocks in 2 minutes of playing.

O'Neal talked about the game in a serious manner.

"I still have injuries on my body, and this kind of game is very helpful for my body to recover and find the game state."

He didn't say a word about the Chinese rookie mentioned by the assistant coaches and Kupchak who can be compared with the talent of Chamberlain and Johnson.

He is not interested in a kid who can't even guarantee playing time.

Did he really think he was LeBron?
Phil Jackson even directly announced to the players that O'Neal and Payton, who were injured in the next game, would have a truce.

This fan is a bit disappointing for Huaxia fans.

I thought it was another powerful insider at the NBA level after Dayao.

It seems that I think too much.

"Two balls passed in garbage time on one inside, there is no hope."

"O'Neill is right, he is, he is still a child!"

"Hope to see Youshen dunk in the next game!"

"In the video on foreign websites, he dunks a rebound, and the 360-degree free throw line can't be fake!"

Although there was not much attention in the preseason, he brought his own traffic because he was a Chinese player.

Just look at Dayao's terrifying votes to enter the All-Star Game in his first season.

Warriors here.

Uncle Robinson and the lunatic brother with old arms and legs also understood the gap with the beasts of the Lakers.

It seems that Peyton Malone can refuse to accept the old, but we can't accept the old...

Coach D'Antoni officially announced his decision when he saw the arrogance of the old guys being beaten.

"After the first game, we will officially adjust the lineup and use the best lineup and the most correct tactics to welcome the arrival of the regular season."

Coach Musselman also hiccupped, then nodded and said.

"That's right, the team's offense is up to you, Coach Michael."

He was still a little dazed.

In other words, the Huaxia fine wine that Zhang You gave him yesterday was too good.

really not bad.

As long as he is in the Warriors, he will taste Chinese wine and Chinese food prepared by his single mother.

I've only eaten a few dishes, and I'm so drunk.

……

The disastrous defeat of the Lakers in the first warm-up match made the proud old guys in the team see the reality clearly.

Now the Warriors are so poisonous that they must use strong medicine.

Mourinho, with a calm face, waved his hand and delegated power to the assistant coach.

Under D'Antoni's dispatch.

Two days later, the Lakers and Warriors met again at the Staples Center.

The Warriors really changed.

Van Exel, Richardson, Dunleavy, Robinson, Zhang You.

Zhang You, the No. 2003 pick in 9, and Uncle Robinson, the No. 1989 pick in 9, partnered inside.

Zhang You played the fourth position today.

"Hey, Uncle Cliff, I didn't expect us to be really old."

"Think about it, it's up to the young people now. Get ready to enter."

Van Exel and Robinson are still discussing.

And D'Antoni is gearing up, ready to test his new tactics with Zhang You as the core.

Musselman yawned and said: "Michael's tactics I call him 'one heart and four shooters', four shooters on one axis. Let the Lakers try something new."

The player enters the field.

Clifford Robinson and Lakers backup center Horace Grant prepare to jump the ball.

The player directly facing Zhang You tonight is the league's most famous villain and predator—the postman Malone.
