Build a Dream Dynasty

The Nets' second game is still at home, and they sit at home against the visiting Utah Jazz.

​​

Last season, the Jazz were also one of the few Western teams to double-kill the Nets, and, with a high element of luck, the first game was one of the Nets’ 6 consecutive games in the West, the Division of Fatigue, The main players including West were hidden in the snow, and the other game was the last back-to-back game, which was purely to pick up heads.

​​

Compared with the Mavericks, the Jazz are stronger. The lineup of this team is a bit weird. Although there are no superstars in the lineup, the combat effectiveness is solid and powerful, especially the four big kings in the interior. The overall strength is definitely ranked in the top three in the league. .

​​

Of course, in terms of strength, the Nets are absolutely not afraid of the Jazz when the objective conditions are relatively fair. After all, the Nets also entered the Eastern Conference finals last season! But the result was completely one-sided.

​​

From the beginning of the game, the Nets were in a backward situation. They kept chasing points throughout the game, and finally lost the game 109-116.

​​

Compared with the first game, the improvement is visible to the naked eye. Although Curry still did not have the upper hand in the matchup with his old teammate Ellis, Curry maintained his output on the offensive end, with 28 points and 9 assists. It is commendable that Leonard also achieved suppression in the wrestling with Hayward, scoring 18 points, 7 rebounds and 4 steals throughout the game. The Nets' problem appeared on the defensive end, especially in the interior defense. All the four big players in the Jazz scored double figures, including Kanter, who only played 15 minutes. What's more terrifying than the score is the Jazz's control of rebounding. .

​​

The Nets ranked eighth in the league in defense last season, and that was without Lopez. But after trading away George this season, the team's defense in these two games fell outside the 25th in the league, and it looked like it was full of flaws! One of the personnel changes is the departure of George and Bledsoe. Especially George, after he really left, the importance of his existence to the Nets' defensive system was so intuitively reflected. This also makes Jiang Mingliang a little scared. If he trades George and Curry in advance, I am afraid that the team's progress in the first two seasons will not be so easy. Now, at least the team still has a lot of fault tolerance, proving the huge value of this trade in the long run.

​​

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Nets' loss to the Jazz can only be said to be unsatisfactory, not to mention upset, and in the second game, the team's overall tacit understanding is improving, however, in the media. Under the intentional amplification, the team's defensive problems have been sharpened, and some fans who are easily influenced by the media's remarks have also been instigated to vent their dissatisfaction recklessly, which has also brought some negative effects to the team. .

​​

It is not uncommon for public figures to be criticized. Jiang Mingliang has a good record in the previous two years. Even if others scold him for how bad his operation was this summer, the fans will not shout for him to step down and get out. General managers of other teams, like Kahn of the Timberwolves, have been scolded much worse than him. Jiang Mingliang's mood was not affected by the team's record. He has full confidence in his team.

​​

Although the results of the Nets have pulled their hips, in fact, as early as when George traded Curry, some people raised doubts, thinking that the decline of the Nets' strength could not be more obvious. The real disappointment was the Los Angeles Lakers. After operating in one hand and forming the F4 lineup of Nash, Kobe, Gasol and Howard, the Lakers are known as one of the championship options that can challenge the championship in the new season, and they are second only to the Heat in odds. Ranked second, but after the start of the season, the Lakers lost to the Trail Blazers, Celtics and Clippers successively, coming to a three-game losing streak. The championship has started with a three-game losing streak, and the Lakers have also absorbed most of the firepower that might have been concentrated on the Nets. With a knife, the predicament of the Nets may not be so annoying. . . . . . right?

​​

In the third game of the regular season, the Nets challenged the Washington Wizards away, but they returned with a bad result!

​​

The first two games were against Western playoff teams. Considering that the West has been strong and the East has been weak over the years, the loss is bearable, but this time the opponent is the Wizards! The second-to-last team in the Eastern Conference last season, the core lineup of the team, Wall + Bill is younger than the Nets. Since the start of the new season, the Wizards have also lost two straight like the Nets, but they are not good for layups. After the net, the Wizards actually won!

​​

What made the Nets fans even more depressed was that Curry was once again suppressed by the opposing point guard on the defensive end. Wall's 24+9 performance is quite impressive. Under his organizational revitalization, the Wizards' flanking Bill and Ariza made 9 of 15 three-pointers, with a hit rate of 60%!

​​

"It can't reach the level of Nash's omnipotence on the offensive end, and he is even worse than Nash on the defensive end!"

​​

"The boss of the Warriors got Jiang Mingliang's fruit photo! Otherwise, how could he have replaced our George with such a colander!"

​​

"Stephen Curry: Show you the scoring ability of every point guard in the league!"

​​

"Although I support issac, I also think that the George trade for Curry is a failed trade. Basketball is not just about offense, defense is also important! George is the backbone of our defense!"

​​

Facing the fans' doubts, Jiang Mingliang finally voiced his support for the team on Twitter.

​​

"It's all under my control, and I've been prepared for a long time. In the early stages of the league, the players are still in the running-in stage, and the results will definitely make a difference. I believe we can quickly get through this most difficult period. Find the key to winning again!"

​​

"Curry will be the answer the team needs~www.readwn.com~ I have no doubts about this!"

​​

"We're going to show the whole of America an incredible Nets team soon!"

​​

But Jiang Mingliang's confident words were distorted by the fans, who ridiculed them, "We have already seen this incredible Nets team, because last season's Eastern Conference runner-up couldn't even win against the Wizards!"

​​

A day later, the Nets returned home to face the Miami Heat. In this game, the team’s performance was very tenacious. Curry also used the first 30+ of his Nets career to fight back the fans’ doubts about him, but he scored 34 points. The performance of 7 assists is meaningless in front of James' magical performance of passing Leonard to complete the lore in the last two seconds.

​​

The four-game losing streak started, and everyone was stunned! Even the unfortunate Lakers have lost four in a row, and they can no longer cover up for the Nets. Negative remarks are shrouded in the Nets.

​​

When the media want to bombard a person, they will first divide the person, distinguish the good side from the bad side, they will choose to cover up the good ones dance, and exaggerate the bad ones.

​​

In this game against the Heat, the Nets' performance was not bad. Throughout the game, the team's offense was slowly getting organized. Curry's cooperation with West and Lopez became more and more skillful. Leonard's performance against James was no longer like last season's finals. So helpless, but gave a strong counterattack.

​​

But no one has seen these, they will only hype it up in the newspapers.
