Chapter 231 First in the East
Yao Ming played against the Sharks for the first time. He scored 10 points, 10 rebounds and 6 blocks. He scored three consecutive big blocks in the opening game, which made fans in San Francisco and China crazy. Even the local fans and media in Los Angeles had to lament Yao's performance sharp.

At the press conference after the game, Shark O'Neal said convincingly: "No one has ever blocked me, and it was three consecutive times. I don't know how tall Yao is. They told me that I was 7 feet 6 inches, but I think they fooled me." For me, I feel that Yao Ming is at least 2 meters, he is too tall, my God."

Yao Ming was as humble as ever, he said: "There is no doubt that Shaquille O'Neal is the number one center in the league in the NBA. As long as he does not retire for a day, this title will not be left behind by others. I am just a rookie in the first year of the NBA. What I need to do now The thing is to learn more, watch more, listen more and talk less, thank you everyone."

This year, the Western Kings of the NBA have suddenly emerged. Like the Lakers, they have only lost one game so far, followed by the Spurs. The Warriors are currently 8 wins and 5 losses. They are not very impressive in the Western Conference, but at least they are in the circle of playoff teams .

The New Jersey Nets currently have a record of 9 wins and 4 losses, one more win than the Warriors. In history, they are the final No. 52 in the Eastern Conference this season, with a record of 30 wins and [-] losses. And we know the intensity of the competition in the Western Division of the NBA.

Last season, the Nets, which even made it to the playoffs and were at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, can reach the top of the Eastern Conference this season. The only difference in the lineup is that the Nets traded the lone wolf Marbury for the Suns' Jackie. Sen Kidd, the reborn Nets were reborn from Nirvana all of a sudden, firmly occupying the forefront of the Eastern Conference.

If the two players have almost the same ability and function, and they are both point guards, then whoever is the general manager and head coach of the NBA will choose the guy who is several years younger. The longest career of an NBA player is no more than 20 years. Young means The future means everything.

But for a player like Jason Kidd, if you don’t get him, you won’t feel how powerful he is, but you will know his role and importance only if you lose it. At the end of this season, the Suns lost their name, from being a frequent player in the playoffs every year to 82 games After the vacation, I realized just how useful Kidd was.

There is no harm if there is no comparison. For the Nets and Suns who changed their point guards, one has transformed from the worst team in the East to the No. [-] in the Eastern Conference, and the other has changed from a strong playoff team to an April audience, watching other teams fight for the championship.

By the way, Rick Carlisle still went to the Pistons, and the Detroit people hired him as the head coach. The wheels of history are sometimes powerful and difficult to reverse.

However, the Warriors of Verus have ruined a championship for the Lakers. Whether the Lakers, who have not played their momentum, can win this season's championship like in history is still unknown. Verus is optimistic about this.

No matter how the Lakers do this season, the purple and gold giants in Los Angeles have actually begun to decline. They couldn't beat the Spurs in 03, and failed to force the formation of f04 in 4. Then the big sharks traveled eastward, and the Lakers began to rebuild in pain. The scoring champion wearing the No. 24 jersey turned out, and the Lakers began to regain their glory.

Regardless of whether the super contract that O'Neal asked for exists or not, in short, the Lakers can't give up Kobe for him. O'Neal's data has been declining year by year. Looking forward to an infinite future, just like Jordan back then, it is estimated that once again, the Lakers owner Buss will still choose to send the Sharks away.

The Nets, which lost to the Kings in the last game, were naturally unwilling to suffer a losing streak in the West, but back-to-back games are a huge challenge for them. Every NBA team has a very low winning percentage in the second game of back-to-back games .

Byron Scott still sent a full set of main players to play. They felt that there was nothing unacceptable about losing to the No. [-] Kings in the West, but losing to the Warriors, a traditional weak team in the West, would definitely be criticized by fans when they returned to New Jersey.

The Nets started with center Todd McCloch, power forward slam dunk Kenyon Martin, small forward Keith Van Horn, shooting guard Corey Kidders, and point guard Jason Kidd.

Five masters who can grab rebounds, Kidd is in charge of the overall situation, Martin's physical fitness is top-notch, the No. Can not fly around.

Van Horn is thin and tall. In the past few years since he came to the Nets, he has averaged a stable contribution of 20+8 per game. The small forward with a height of 2 meters is really taking advantage.

The inside blue-collar McCloch, the scorer Kiddels, the Nets really lack nothing, but a good point guard, not the type who can score like Marbury, the Nets have no shortage of scorers.

The arrival of Kidd revitalized the Nets in an instant. The originally lifeless Nets jumped to the top of the Eastern Conference. In the next few seasons, the Nets were the first in the Eastern Conference and one of the most powerful contenders for the Eastern Conference Championship.

The generals of the Warriors volunteered one after another. The last fiasco was in Los Angeles, which made the young players very unconvinced, especially when they just received Verus’ game console and supercar in the game cabin, and they directly gave him a crisp defeat. It's really embarrassing.

It took Lenny a lot of effort to appease the whole team. Jason Terry, who was injured in Los Angeles, was conservatively estimated by team doctor Hu Qingnang. He would be unable to play for 6-8 weeks and entered the injured list. The Golden State Warriors quickly Use the No. 0 agent Arenas of the Development League to replace him and play.

勇士队首发中锋11号姚名、大前锋7号杰梅因·奥尼尔、小前锋1号特雷西·麦克格雷迪、得分后卫31号肖恩·巴蒂尔、控球后卫4号昌西·比卢普斯。

In view of the high height of the Nets team and many rebounders, Lenny sent a lineup that does not suffer from height and strong defensive ability. Jermaine O'Neal is running for Kenyon Martin. A soft power forward, it is easy to be He blows up, and on the other hand, the tough power forward can easily blow up Martin.

Battier is definitely a good chess piece. When you need to defend a strong forward and guard of the opponent, use Battier. When you need to strengthen the outside scoring ability, use Battier.

Players who can defend and shoot three-pointers are called 3D players in later generations, and they can be found everywhere with a contract worth more than [-] million yuan. It’s just that the NBA doesn’t pay attention to these things now. They like those who are strong in singles and have physical fitness like aliens. man player.

Speaking of three-pointers, Verus is a little annoyed. The Warriors have been in his second season. He has made a lot of three-pointers, but you said that the game was won purely by three-pointers?

It's a bit embarrassing to not have a game. Verus's mythological theory of coming from the stars is always a bit lacking in confidence.
