NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

At nine o'clock in the evening, the Lakers' home game against the Kings is about to start.

Two games before the All-Star Game, one Kings and one Suns.

Not a strong team for the Lakers.

Coupled with three days of rest, Chen Tian and the others also recovered.

Facing the current Kings, it can be said to be very easy.

According to news, the Kings have begun to prepare to sell Cousins.

They are going to complete this deal before the All-Star Game.

In this way, they can start rebuilding from this season.

So Chen Tian knew that, if nothing unexpected happened, the king and the pelicans would still complete the deal.

After all, the previous life was such a deal.

But Chen Tian didn't know if there would be any spoilers.

You must know that this transaction is actually not that shocking.

After all, Davis and Cousins, even if they are added together, they are at most a loser's league.

One has the attributes of a glass man, and the other has no brains.

In fact, most fans don't have much expectation for the combination of the two.

But the magic is that this deal actually appeared during the halftime of the All-Star Game.

This lets all fans know about this deal.

Chen Tian still remembers when he watched this All-Star game in his previous life.

After Cousins ​​saw the deal, he also showed an ugly face on the bench.

Because of this, the league later promulgated that it is not allowed to complete the transaction during the All-Star weekend.

In fact, even now, both teams are warming up before the game.

Chen Tian could also tell that Cousins ​​was not in a good mood.

Soon the game between the two teams began.

Cousins ​​​​jumped the ball, and the Kings got the ball for the first time.

The starting lineup for the Kings.

Darren Collison, Aaron Afflalo, Ben McLemore, Costa Koufos, and DeMarcus Cousins.

After the opening, Collison held the ball for half court and handed the ball to Cousins.

Cousins ​​took the ball and hit Jokic directly with his back.

Then he turned around and threw the ball in easily.

It has to be said that Cousins' touch doesn't seem like it belongs to a center forward.

It can be said that Cousins ​​has not completed many offenses at the basket throughout his career.

In each game, the area Cousins ​​completes his offense is more in the central area.

That is, more mid-range shots.

This can also reflect how soft Cousins' touch is.

Cousins ​​scored the ball, and the Kings got off to a very smooth start.

But on the other hand, after Chen Tian broke through to attract the defense, he passed the ball to Anthony.

Anthony easily scored a three-pointer from the outside.

I don't know what the king was thinking, but he sent a lineup of twin towers.

Let Koufos and Cousins ​​block the inside line.

For the Lakers, this is simply too happy.

The ability of Cousins ​​and Koufos to defend is not very good.

Sure enough, in the time after.

Although Cousins ​​​​is still galloping inside.

But the Lakers are under the tandem of Jokic and Chen Tian.

It rained three minutes straight away.

Chen Tian, ​​Anthony, and Tucker cooperated to pass the ball.

In the end, Tucker scored a three-pointer from the bottom corner.

After that, Jokic singled Cousins ​​inside, under the help of Koufos.

Jokic made a ground pass to the open Chen Tian.

Chen Tian easily scored a three-pointer.

After that, the Lakers once again cooperated tacitly.

From outside the three-point line, Matthew made an easy open shot at a 45-degree angle.

These consecutive three-pointers directly stopped the king.

After a timeout, the Kings also replaced Barnes.

This is a defensive stalwart, but this guy is old.

It's the end of his career, and now his defense is completely dominated by experience.

It can be said that this season is basically his last season.

Speaking of Barnes, Chen Tian still likes this player very much.

After all, this guy was one of the Golden State gangsters back then.

Hei Ba's miracle, this guy is also one of the participants.

After replacing Barnes, the Lakers will not have many outside opportunities.

But soon the Lakers focused on Jokic's interior offense.

To say that Jokic's offensive methods are much more than Cousins.

Soon the first quarter was over, and the Lakers had taken an absolute lead.

But after returning from the second quarter.

The Lakers' bench feels a bit powerless.

JR missed the open three-pointer.

Yi Jianlian turned around and leaned back to shoot, but he didn't score.

Brogge went to the basket and was directly capped by Caulistan.

The King's substitute also took the opportunity to reduce the score to single digits.

This made Monty on the sidelines very annoyed.

Amidst Monty's angry shouts, Brogdon and the others finally found their hand.

Then in the second half of the second quarter, JR and the others once again extended the score to double digits.

During the halftime break, Monty also lost his temper in the locker room.

Although JR and others expanded the score again afterwards.

But their fugue performance before made Monty very dissatisfied.

Here at Monty, there is only fault and no merit.

Winning is what players have to do.

But if you can't win the ball, then I will have a good talk with you.

After spraying for a while, JR, Yi Jianlian and others were so sprayed that they couldn't lift their heads.

But it's also very effective.

After the start of the second half, it was very easy for Chen Tian and other main players to play.

The Kings are also struggling to support, and when they think about the rotation, they are catching up with the score.

But I never expected that after the two teams made substitutions in the second half of the third quarter.

Originally, the king thought he could catch up with the score.

But he was caught off guard by the Lakers bench gangsters.

As soon as he came up, JR hit the inside line and scored with one hand.

After that, Brewer missed an open three-pointer, and insider Yi Jianlian grabbed a rebound.

Then he turned around and avoided the defensive Caulistan.

Take off directly and dunk the basket with both hands.

When Yi Jianlian dunked the ball, he grabbed the basket with both hands and shook it hard.

Because of this, Yi Jianlian got a T.

After all, the famous NBA rules do not allow players to hang up after dunking.

But this time it doesn't matter anymore.

The morale of the Lakers, because of this ball is completely up.

The game after that was a unilateral massacre.

The head coach on the King's side was also stunned.

He also didn't expect that the Lakers' bench would be so powerful.

I just couldn't believe my eyes.

Seeing this performance from the sidelines, Monty also nodded.

Because only such a performance is worthy of the Lakers' status as the defending champion.

Chen Tian saw that the game was like this, so he didn't have any desire to play.

At the end of the game, the Lakers beat the Kings 117:97 with 20 points.
