Thanks to Curry's restraint, Yi Jianlian performed very well.
In six minutes of playing time, Yi Jianlian took three three-pointers, hit one, made two alley-oop dunks inside, grabbed 4 rebounds, and gave the Lakers 3 big blocks!
This is already very impressive for a newcomer!
Tucker's performance is not outstanding, but in fact his role is greater!
Tucker took two three-pointers from the bottom corner and didn't miss one!
More importantly, Tucker is everywhere on the court, switching to defend Kobe, helping to defend Gasol, covering up Blake on the outside, blocking for rebounds, Tucker is everywhere!
From guard to center, Tucker can do anything at any position!
It is even said that Tucker is better at defending Gasol than Yi Jianlian!
The tough Artest met the equally tough Tucker, and the physical fight between the two was very enjoyable for the audience to watch.
Seeing that the Warriors had brought in two new players, the Lakers wanted to take this opportunity to recover the score.
Unexpectedly, the two newcomers were even more powerful!
At the end of the first quarter, the score became 47:22, and the Warriors led by 25 points!
Leading by 25 points in a single quarter!
The game will be straight away!
Soon, the timeout ended and the second quarter began.
Since the score was always lagging behind, Kobe and Gasol played the entire first quarter.
The first quarter of the game was very intense. Kobe and Gasol were both veterans. They had to rest in the second quarter.
The five players acquired by the Lakers are Odom, Blake, Shannon Brown, Matt Barnes and Ratliff.
Since Andrew Bynum was injured and unable to play, the Lakers had no choice but to bring up veteran Ratliff.
Ratliff is 2.08 meters tall and was born in 1973!
He is already a 37-year-old veteran!
Odom doesn't have a three-pointer, Shannon Brown's three-pointer is insane, and Matt Barnes's three-pointer is unreliable.
There is no strong scorer, no three-pointers on the outside, and there is a veteran who is about to retire inside. You can imagine how miserable the Lakers' bench lineup is!
The Warriors were very generous here. All the starters were dismissed and replaced by the second lineup: Lowry, Livingston, Hayward, Kirilenko and DeAndre Jordan.
Deng Fang’s meaning is obvious:
How about it, interesting enough?
We are all substitutes too!
I won’t bully you!
fair play!
friendship first, competition later!
Looking at the lineup of the Warriors, Master Jackson is drooling!
Can this game still be played?
unfair!
We are not here to compete!
We are here for torture!
Your lineup can beat our starters, right?
…
No matter what the Zen Master thinks, the game must continue.
Although the Lakers' lineup is a bit miserable, the Warriors are showing no mercy at all.
The defensive end is airtight and the offensive end is extremely aggressive!
No matter which position, the Warriors have a physical advantage!
Even Odom, the leader of the Lakers' bench, is one level behind Kirilenko!
Whether it's height, wingspan or defensive experience, Kirilenko is much better than Odom!
Even on the offensive end, Odom, who is known for his versatility, was not much better in front of Kirilenko.
Livingston and Jordan pick and roll, and the three outsiders can shoot three-pointers!
Livingston hits Blake in the low post.
Lowry singled out Shannon Brown.
No matter which matchup the Warriors have, they have a clear advantage!
In fact, the Warriors' second unit is better defensively than the first unit!
Under the iron-clad defense of the Warriors, it was very difficult for the Lakers to score a point.
It's much easier for the Warriors to score!
After all, the gap is too big!
Soon the point difference widened to more than 30 points!
Several people on the Lakers court looked very pitiful, and everyone looked helpless:
We tried our best!
This is not a level competition at all!
We are here just looking for abuse...
Bosses, please, can you be gentle?
We have no grievances, so why should we be so cruel?
Several people on the Warriors court were also helpless:
Sorry, we don't want this either!
We just play normally!
Really not cruel!
Besides, you are not our target!
Our goal is to start the Warriors who just came up!
They beat you by 25 points in one game, we can't be less than them, right?
If the winning score difference in this quarter is less than 20 points, where will you show your face when you go back?
He was playing in the starting lineup and won by 25 points in one quarter!
We were playing as substitutes, but we only won by 15 points in one quarter. How dare we compete with others?
Sorry, fellow veterans!
Just be patient and it will pass!
The point difference continues to widen and your starter is back!
That's our goal!
They won't come up without being ruthless!
Be good, just a moment, just a moment!
Just be patient and it will be fine!
…
After five minutes of play in the second quarter, the point difference widened to 35 points!
The Zen master had no choice but to call a timeout again.
It doesn't matter whether we win or lose the game, we can't afford to lose this guy!
Even if it's just for the sake of my old face, I have to get the score back a little bit!
After the timeout, the Lakers replaced their starters.
Kobe and the others are in action again.
Although they were behind by a big score, Kobe and others still did not give up!
This is the opening game of the season!
We had just been swept out of the playoffs by our opponents and lost the first game of the new season by a huge margin. That would be too embarrassing!
Even though they are all hanging out in the world, they still need to have some face!
The Lakers fought fiercely, but the Warriors showed no fear!
Who is afraid of whom?
It’s you who are waiting!
Who made you lose to a group by 25 points just now?
Do you want to lose less when it's our turn?
There are no doors!
Who are you looking down on?
We were not afraid of them during team training, but now we are afraid of you?
Although they are leading by more than 30 points, the Warriors look more like they are lagging behind!
The Zen master went crazy looking at it!
How did Deng Fang get the chicken soup?
Why do they all look like they've been injected with chicken blood?
…
Despite all their efforts, the second team of the Warriors is still weaker than the first team.
First of all, there is one missing Curry.
Livingston is indeed good, but he doesn't have three-pointers, and his breakthrough is not as good as Curry's.
Jordan also couldn't shoot, so he could only make alley-oops.
Lowry can burst and shoot, but his operating space is not as good as Curry's.
Jordan couldn't pull out and could only move around the penalty area. Livingston didn't have a three-pointer, and Kirilenko's three-pointer wasn't as threatening as Azubuike and others.
Even Hayward, who is good at three-point shooting, is still a rookie and cannot pose much of a threat to the Lakers on the court.
No matter how powerful a rookie is, he is still a rookie!
Hayward does not receive the same treatment as Curry.
There is not enough room to break through, and he is much weaker than Curry in terms of strength. Lowry's scoring is not easy.
Regardless of the first team or the second team, the tactics are similar, with the point guard as the core and driving teammates to score through pick-and-rolls.
In this mode, the stronger the ball carrier, the harder it is for the team's offense to defend.
