The older superstars of the NBA

After the opening game against the Golden State Warriors, the new season officially begins.

Although the Knicks lost, many New York fans still have hope for the team's season prospects. After all, it's just a game, and the Knicks still have room to adjust. They didn't lose when they met the Warriors in the two previous championship seasons.

The Knicks players did not take this loss too seriously. Although everyone was holding back their dissatisfaction, all they wanted was to win the Warriors back in the next match.

Soon the Knicks' second game arrived.

This time the Knicks take on the Detroit Pistons.

As the bottom team in the Eastern Conference, the Pistons naturally do not have any strength to compete with the Knicks. Because of this, the Pistons lost this game without much play, and the winner of the game between the two sides was decided in the third quarter.

The final score was fixed at 119 to 100.

Zhao Feiyang only played 30 minutes as the core, but he was very efficient, scoring 25 points and 7 rebounds during this period.

Zach LaVine played 36 minutes. He scored 21 points and 6 assists. He was the player with the most points on the team except Zhao Feiyang.

Now he is gradually being trained by the Knicks as the next successor. At the age of 26, he is in the golden age of his career and has become an All-Star star by virtue of his own strength.

Although he is not yet in the first tier, he is already considered a leader among the new generation of players.

No one knows how long Zhao Feiyang can continue to play. In short, once he reaches the time of retirement, the Knicks can immediately correct LaVine, so that the Knicks will not instantly collapse and fall out of the playoff team. of ranks.

Not only LaVine, but Adrian Ennis is also taken seriously by the team.

Now that he is younger than LaVine, he can be said to have a bright future. Although it is still a bit reluctant to enter the All-Star Game, his performance in the past two seasons has made many people think that he can grow into the first-tier team in the future. forward player.

These two are undoubtedly the future of the Knicks.

They are also the two core players the Knicks are most concerned about besides Zhao Feiyang.

After the battle with the Pistons, the game continued. The Knicks performed well in the next six games, maintained a very high level, and performed a performance that excited New York fans.

A start of 7 wins and 1 loss allowed the Knicks to sit first in the Eastern Conference.

Of course, they're tied with the Brooklyn Nets.

The Nets only lost one game at the start of the season and won all other games like the Knicks. The Big Three lineup headed by Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving performed a performance that surprised everyone.

With the three players staying healthy, the opponents the Nets faced had almost no counterattack.

The one with a slightly worse record than these two teams is the Milwaukee Bucks, ranked third in the Eastern Conference.

The Bucks started well and Antetokounmpo is still strong, but the team's outside problems still exist.

In response to this situation, the Bucks finally made a deal that shocked the entire league.

They successfully recruited Damian Lillard from the Portland Trail Blazers. This move also made the Bucks the favorite in the Eastern Conference finals.

However, after all, Lillard's arrival takes time to adapt. In the two games during this adaptation period, the Bucks' performance was not as good as fans imagined.

Of course, no matter what, Milwaukee fans are generally optimistic about new blood like Lillard.

There are many powerful powers in the east, and the situation in the west is also very complicated.

First of all, the Golden State Warriors have the best record.

After LeBron James joined, the effect was immediate. They didn't lose any of the first few games of the season. Even if the Warriors encountered strong teams like the Knicks and Clippers in the process, they both Still won.

What is extremely surprising is that the team behind the Warriors is not the Clippers, which many fans are optimistic about, but the Phoenix Suns, which had not been noticed at all before.

After the Suns added Chris Paul, they only lost one game at the beginning of the season. Among the opponents they encountered were playoff teams like the Los Angeles Lakers, but even so, the Suns still successfully defeated their opponents.

Ranking third in the Western Conference is the Clippers.

The Clippers' performance was stable. Although they did not play in an amazing state, the team maintained their desire to win.

Ranked fourth in the Western Conference are the Denver Nuggets.

The Nuggets are still the same as last season. Although their performance in the playoffs is not that good, during the regular season, the Nuggets still feel quite relaxed.

After the opening rankings came out, the Knicks had a lot less worries.

In the ninth game of the regular season, they traveled to Los Angeles to challenge the Lakers. Before the game officially started, Zhao Feiyang, thick-eyebrow brother Anthony Davis and others greeted each other.

Compared to when LeBron was here, the Lakers are much calmer today.

There had never been insufficient attendance before, but now nearly one-tenth of the seats in the huge stadium were vacant.

This is unusual for a large city like Los Angeles.

The players of the Lakers are in pretty good mental condition, but as the core, Brother Big Eyebrow looks a little sluggish.

With LeBron's departure, they were suddenly reduced to a playoff team that originally had hopes of winning the championship. Although it's not bad to be able to maintain a certain level of combat effectiveness, for a star like Big Eyebrow, why would he come to Los Angeles if he can't win the championship?

beep.

The timer sounded and the game between the two sides started soon.

The referee threw the basketball and the Lakers got the ball first.

The thick-browed brother looked unhappy, so he worked very hard when jumping the ball. He slapped the ball out, and Rajon Rondo quickly advanced with the ball.

After halftime, Rondo organized an attack at the top of the arc, and Brother Big Eyebrow also stepped forward to ask for the ball.

Rondo gave the ball to his hands, and the thick-browed brother who got the ball changed his previous conservative play. This time he directly used his body to push away Andre Drummond who was guarding him and attack towards the basket.

boom.

The thick-browed brother smashed the ball in with a one-handed chop.

His ferocity shocked the Knicks players. He was not like this last season!

"nice shot!"

"Good job!"

"It turns out we can have a pretty good offense without that terrible guy in LeBron..."

The Lakers fans on the sidelines screamed excitedly, not knowing whether they wanted to mock LeBron or give some comfort to the thick-browed brother who supported the team alone.
