Chapter 1039 Season Opener

On October 10, the season opener.

The league still has its intentions in using the Los Angeles Derby as the opening game of the 2019-20 season.The current popularity of these two teams is the top 3 in the league, and they are both in Los Angeles, which is very topical.

This game is James' first regular season after returning from injury last season, and it is also Xie Kai's first regular season after joining the Clippers.

Whether it is Zhan Meiqiang or Xie Qiao is the best, then we have to see the truth on the court.It's just that George is determined not to play in this game, which makes the excitement and topicality of this game somewhat discounted.

In the preview of the season, the reason why the Clippers are more optimistic is not because the combination of Xie Kai and Paojiao is far better than that of Zhan Mei, but because the Clippers have a better lineup of role players and a more complete system.

During the offseason, the Clippers mainly played Gallinari and SGA, supplemented by Pickled Pepper and Xie Kai.It is basically a supplement of the same position, and it has been upgraded by more than one level.So you can think of them as the Plus version of last season's playoff team, which does not include Xie Kai's super leadership and the growth of young people such as Zubac.

As for the Lakers, the thick eyebrow deal sent away almost all the young talents in their hands (except Kuzma). Their lineup was temporarily built. Even the team's core Zhanmei combination had no partners before. Experience and tacit understanding, this is obviously different from Xie Qiao, who has partnered for 3 seasons and won 3 consecutive championships.

Moreover, the Lakers' lineup is relatively deformed, with very poor offensive space, too few strikers and too many guards. Because of the reimbursement for the season of Kao Shen, the moved Howard does not know how much skill he has.

James is also 35 years old. No one knows how he is after the serious injury.

On the evening of the 22nd, Staples was crowded.A lot of K honey came to the scene, because this is the first regular season of the idol this season.Of course, the fly in the ointment is that they were not able to win the championship ring, but it does not prevent everyone from being happy, because the long grass period is finally over.

The game was broadcast live on Tencent, and the host Wang Meng and the guest Yang Yi were responsible for the commentary.

Wang Meng showed little Thomas a smile. He didn't talk about little Thomas recently because the latter is not as awesome as it was back then.Back then, "The strongest 175 on the surface" was indeed a big hit.

Wang Meng said: "Mr. Yang's new season has started again. Xie Kai has come to the Clippers. Are you surprised or surprised?"

Yang Yi smiled and said: "I was really surprised. I thought he would go to the Lakers, because Kobe had recruited him at that time. I didn't expect him to go to the Clippers, which I didn't expect."

"I didn't expect that either, so do you think the Clippers have become the biggest favorites this season?" Wang Meng asked.

Yang Yi shook his head and said: "The season has just started, and everything is hard to say. No matter how strong a team is, it will lose the ability to compete for the championship when it encounters injuries. Isn't that what happened to the Warriors last year? It can only be said that the current Clippers The surface is very good, and the strength on paper does have the conditions to win the championship."

When practicing on the spot, the fans screamed one after another.Xie Kai's fans are really happy now, because the Clippers and the Lakers share the home court, so theoretically they can watch more than 41 Clippers games here in a season (regular season, if Xie Kai plays both).

If the Clippers and the Lakers meet in the playoffs, it will be even better. You can watch the series at Staples all the time, which is something fans of other NBA teams can't experience.

Of course, Staples tickets are not easy to buy now, and they are quite expensive at the scalpers, just like this one.

The starting lineups of both teams were announced.

The starting lineup of the Lakers at home is: center - JaVale McGee, power forward - Anthony Davis, small forward - Danny Green, shooting guard - Avery Bradley , Point guard - LeBron James.

In the new season of the Lakers, Vogel's team let James play the point guard, just like the magician back then, which is very different from last season.This is also the first time in James' career that he will serve as a point guard for a long time.

The starting lineup of the Clippers in the away game is: center-Ivica Zubac, power forward-Patrick Patterson, small forward-Maurice Harkless, shooting guard-Xie Kai , Point guard - Patrick Beverley.

Because of the absence of pickled peppers, Harkless started.The reason why Patterson can start in the Clippers is that there is no strongman in the 4th position of this team. Second, Zubac is a standing center and needs a space partner to open up the offensive space. The third is him. The combination with Xie Qiao is a former teammate and the starting 3 of the Dynasty team.

Patterson's abilities are average, except for a decent 3-point shot.But he doesn't occupy the ball, nor is he considered a defensive colander, but he is very suitable as a role player next to the star.

McGee and Zubac prepare for the jump ball near the middle circle, and the game is about to start.

Zubac was given to the Clippers almost for free by the Lakers in order to clear space. Now he is playing very well and has a good upward momentum. Lakers fans are really heartbroken.

At the start of the jump ball, McGee easily beat Zubac with his jumping speed, and the game officially started.

Amidst the cheers of the fans at the scene, James slowly dribbled the ball across the half.

The Clippers' defensive arrangement surprised Wang Meng.

"The Clippers didn't let Harkless defend James. They let Beverly defend James, Xie Kai faced Bradley, and Harkless defended Danny Green. This is a positional match." Wang Meng said in surprise.

Yang Yi explained: "I think so, the reason why Rivers arranged this way is to let Beverly bite James, consume him, and interfere with his dribbling. We know that James is a superstar who controls his emotions very well. , but let Beverly provoke, he might be impatient, this is also a kind of tactics."

James took advantage of his size, leaned against Beverly with his back, and dribbled over.

The thick eyebrow asked for the ball around the waist, and James used his height advantage to lob the thick eyebrow.

Although Beverly is showing his teeth and claws, his height is still too short (185cm). James, who is 203cm, stands in front of him and lobs the inside line. There is nothing he can do to stop him.

Thick eyebrows had a clear advantage in hitting Patterson. He resisted with his back, turned around and shot a jumper-hit!
The Lakers took the lead.

Beverley dribbles across halfcourt.

Beverly gave Xie the ball away immediately.

Defensive Xie Kai is defensive expert Danny Huang Ama Tielin.

Tielin defended against Xie Kai in the finals last season, and the effect was not good, but he is a defensive champion after all, either he defends, or AB defends.

Zubac comes up to cover.

With the help of cover, facing McGee's delay, Xie Kai suddenly accelerated and walked in, then paused again, passed the ball in a pocket, and gave it to Zubac who was running down!

Zubac took off directly after catching the ball and made a dunk!
