Chapter 1185 [Purely Sick, 9 Out of 10 Sure]

On October 25, the Lakers' home opener of the new season started, and the arena was full.

Before the game started, the Lakers held last season's championship ring awarding ceremony. Boozer, Mo Williams, Bonner, and Sacre, who had left the team, went to the scene to receive their rings and received warm applause.

Four of them no longer play in the NBA, and two chose to retire. Boozer went to China to play in the CBA, and Thackeray joined the very unprofessional Japanese Professional League.

When Lakers owner Jim Buss spoke, he specifically thanked Guo Xu for his contribution to the Lakers, saying that without Guo Xu, there would be no Lakers today. The scene was awkward and he heard the fans booing.

Little Bas knew why, and his heart was bleeding. Because they let Guo Xu go, how many fewer championships did the Lakers win? How much money did you make less? How many more scolds did they receive? This is immeasurable.

Guo Xu received the championship ring in the finale and delivered a speech. "This is just the beginning. What awaits us is a dynasty. I guarantee that at this time next year, we will still be here to receive the championship ring and raise a championship flag."

All the fans applauded, and the veterans who newly joined the team also applauded. Guo Xu is what people want. Bass Jr. smiled bitterly on the sidelines. When Guo Xu retires, he will most likely be questioned as his boss.

After the visiting team players came on the field, Lowry took the initiative to greet Guo Xu and exchanged a few words.

Lowry's smile was a bit bitter. He didn't have a chance to win the championship and he didn't make a lot of money. In 2014, he renewed a long-term contract with a "cabbage price", and now he regrets it very much.

In fact, Lori on Earth 1 is already doing much better than herself in the parallel world. As soon as he entered the league in 2006, he served as a substitute for Guo Xu with the Suns. He won three championships with the team before leaving. He has no shortage of honors and no pressure.

After the warm-up, the two teams started the game. The five Lakers players: Guo Xu, Booker, Durant, Horford, and Adams.

Rockets five: Lowry, Eric Gordon, Trevor Ariza, Ryan Anderson, Capela.

Rockets manager Morey's recruitment strategy mainly depends on the cost-effectiveness of players, which is similar to the approach in the parallel world, but without the core James Harden and several outstanding substitutes. The Rockets' bench is mainly led by Lou Williams, and almost everyone else is blue-collar. Looking at the depth of the lineup, the Rockets are at a disadvantage.

Adams won the jump ball and the game was on.

Durant got the ball, and Guo Xu got rid of Lowry under Adams' no-ball cover as soon as the half passed.

After receiving a pass from Durant, he changed direction and accelerated past Capela. He drove straight into the middle and dunked the ball with both hands. 2 to 0.

He was hanging on the basket with both legs hitting the backboard, which caused the fans in the audience to applaud and cheer. Scoring the first goal of the season in this way was very morale-boosting.

When the Rockets attack, Guo Xu defends Lowry closely. He wants a big win in the opening game and will not give in.

Lowry has been improving in the past few years, especially his outside shooting feel is getting better and better. Last season, he averaged 2.8 three-pointers per game and shot 38.8% from the field. Guo Xu couldn't let him shoot casually, he wanted to give his best.

Lowry is physically strong and can be called the No. 1 James. He can easily squeeze out his opponents and force a breakthrough against many tall defenders. But he couldn't squeeze away from Guo Xu. Guo Xu's foot plate was particularly stable and his reactions were quick and accurate.

Guo Xu was stuck and Lowry couldn't speed up. He turned around and tried to break through but failed and passed the ball out.

Gordon held the ball and Capela broke through the pick-and-roll and was double-teamed. The Lakers' formation shrank with three players and blocked the penalty area. Gordon passed the ball to Ariza in the corner, and the latter's open jumper missed the basket.

Ariza has had high shooting percentages in other teams in a single season, and he also had two three-point shooting percentages of more than 40% in the playoffs, but he is a "iron scum" in the Rockets. I don't know why, maybe it's Feng Shui. reason.

Adams grabbed the backcourt rebound and passed it to launch a counterattack. Guo Xu dribbled behind Lowry and passed Lowry, attracting Gordon to defend and then pass the ball. Booker got a big open space on the right side and easily made a three-pointer. Shot and hit. 5 to 0.

When returning to defense, Guo Xu and Booker clapped their hands to show encouragement.

After learning that Wade had joined the Lakers, Booker did not relax in the summer and spent two months practicing additional outside shooting. Tyronn Lue called him and asked him to exercise more physical fitness and develop off the ball, using Klay Thompson as a template.

The two have some similarities. They are both of average physical fitness and beautiful shooting movements. In the parallel world, the Suns need Booker to attack with the ball. He has taken a comprehensive approach and developed without the ball. His data may be worse, but his shooting rate will be higher.

In a parallel world, Booker participated in the long-range shooting contest and scored 28 points, setting a record for the contest. He has the potential to become a super shooter, and when he participated in the draft, the scouts positioned him as a shooter.

Playing with the Lakers, Booker will never face double-teams, and he doesn't have to consider combining sudden point shots. There are many open opportunities. He seems to be the least threatening among the five starters now. If the opponent doesn't let him go, who will he let go?

The Rockets attacked, Lowry and Capela played a pick-and-roll attack, and Adams switched defenses to block in front of Lowry. His awareness was very good. Guo Xu bypassed the big man and quickly formed a double team.

Lowry passed the ball to Capela, who was left in the high post, straightened up, and his expression was dumber than Forrest Gump.

Lowry moved and Guo Xu followed up. Adams stepped back two meters and didn't bother to care about Capela. The latter did not dare to take a shot in the open space and did not dribble. He waited for Gordon to pass the ball from close range.

Capela is the bluest kind of blue-collar player. If he wants to score points on the offensive end, he can only rely on the system and teammates to feed him, without any independent offensive ability. Since entering the league in 2014, he has never made a shot from mid-to-long range. This is a magical record. Last season, he only averaged 1.1 shots per game in the low post, hitting 0.3 goals, and his shooting percentage was 30.1%.

To put it bluntly, Capela has no scoring methods other than picking up misses under the basket. His average shot distance is the closest in the league at 1.7. The only sure way to score is a dunk, and any shot under the basket may be useless.

Gordon and Anderson played a pick-and-roll, and the routine was still very simple. Horford switched defense quickly and Gordon failed to break through. Anderson caught the ball and missed Booker's jump shot when he switched defense.

Anderson is only good at catching and shooting, and Morey giving him an annual salary of 20 million is purely a disease.

The Rockets players retreated quickly enough. Guo Xu passed the ball to Durant as the point forward, and the two insiders pulled out to cover and create opportunities for the defender. Durant didn't pass the ball, and Ariza leaned back and turned to the left to throw in the single. 7 to 0.

He played the ball in singles so easily, with no side interference, and he felt that he was 100% sure of the ball.

Rockets boss Alexander was watching the live broadcast at home. He felt very tired and no longer wanted to continue playing, but he had not yet decided what to do next.

The Rockets can't make the playoffs, and if they don't seem to have a future, they can't be sold at a good price. What's worse is that bad teams are not attractive to stars yet, and it will be difficult for them to trade outstanding stars. Without big-name stars, it will be harder to sell the team at a good price. The Rockets let go of Harrison Barnes before, and he didn't regret it. He knew it was a bad contract.

Playing hard to get a high draft pick? That won't help much in selling the team. No matter how good a rookie is, it takes time to develop.

Yao Ming helped Alexander make a lot of money back then, but the boss will not always have good luck.

All five Lakers starters scored in the first quarter. The Rockets couldn't guard their stars if they didn't double-team. The double-teams would leave space for role players to take shots easily. There was a lot of pressure on the defensive end, and the Rockets players couldn't find the feeling when attacking. They couldn't break the Lakers' zone defense and kept hitting the iron.

The Lakers went crazy in the first quarter, leading 42 to 17 by 25 points...
