The Lakers this season are really the focus of everyone's attention. They have formed the "Starship Battleship". Almost every move they make is the focus of the American media. This has also become one of the root causes of the Lakers' subsequent slump.
.
Excessive attention is something that ordinary NBA players cannot afford.
Many superstars and quasi-superstars came to the City of Angels and realized how powerful this invisible pressure is. Let alone ordinary players, even stars of their level will be in danger of being crushed over time.
Big cities have their advantages, but naturally they also have their disadvantages. If you say big city teams must be good, you must have never played in the NBA. Those who couldn't withstand the pressure were directly eliminated. History
It’s not like there’s nothing on the list. Do you really think that high exposure and high salary are so easy to earn?
The Los Angeles media is notoriously cunning and mean, and many times it doesn't even distinguish between friends and foes.
On October 31, 2012, U.S. time, the Lakers challenged the Portland Trail Blazers in back-to-back away games, and it was this game that started the Pandora season for the Lakers.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the "Four Kings" of the Lakers were in position, preparing to win this game and get their first win of the season.
The Lakers scored 26 points in the first quarter, of which Gasol scored 10 points, Howard also scored 7 points, Kobe Bryant had 4 points, and Nash had 3 assists. It can be said that in the first quarter, the Lakers' "four kings" all
There was a feeling of performance and running-in, which was obviously much better than yesterday's opening game. But helplessly, LaMarcus Aldridge of the Trail Blazers performed bravely, making 6 of 8 shots in a single quarter, scoring 12 points, and also scored 12 points.
He scored 4 personal assists, which activated everyone on the Trail Blazers. 30-26 in a single quarter, but beat the Lakers by 4 points.
Tang Qian played 2 minutes in this quarter and got 4 rebounds.
In the second quarter of the game, just when the Lakers were chasing points, a bolt from the blue happened.
The team's starting point guard, Steve Nash, suffered a violent impact while defending inside. He fell to the Rose Garden and rolled around in pain. The Lakers' chief physician, Gary Vitti, immediately came to the scene.
Before, he took Nash back to the Lakers locker room.
Suddenly, it was as if a dark cloud hung over the Lakers' heads.
This is only the second game, and an absolute main player has been injured. No matter how you look at it, it is not a good sign.
I just hope that the injury is not too serious.
Without Nash's operation and deployment, the Lakers immediately fell into a brief "panic." But fortunately at this time, Kobe Bryant stepped up and used off-ball screens and open cuts to shoot 4 of 6 in a single quarter.
Among them, he made 3 of 4 three-pointers, plus 2 free throws, scoring 13 points. Only then did the Lakers' situation stabilize.
By 31-32 points in a single quarter, the Lakers trailed by a total of 5 points in the first half and entered the second half.
In the locker room, as soon as Kobe entered, he opened his mouth and asked: "Gary, how is Steve's injury?"
Gary Vitti was checking Nash's injury at the moment. When he saw Kobe coming in, he didn't turn his head. He lowered his head and answered directly: "There seems to be no problem with the ligament, but the inside of the bone is not known yet. It needs to be done after an MRI tomorrow."
Get the exact answer." "Don't worry, I'm fine. I'll rest for a while and I should be able to continue playing." Nash saw Kobe's worry and opened his mouth to say.
After the halftime break, Nash really made his comeback. Speaking of Steve Nash, he is also an "Iron Man" with a high attendance rate. He has not missed many games in his career. Playing with an injury is also a good thing for him.
It's not an unusual thing. But this year, his "ironman attributes" have come to an end. After only playing for 2 minutes in the third quarter, he returned to the locker room again because of leg discomfort.
Things like this immediately weakened the morale of the Lakers team.
Although Howard scored 12 points and 6 rebounds in a single quarter, he still could not stop the Blazers' crazy offensive, especially Damian Lillard, who combined with Pavlovic to score consecutive goals in the last 2 minutes of the third quarter.
Scored 13 points. A 13-0 offensive spurt immediately deflated the Lakers, and the score gap widened again.
Tang Qian did not play in these two quarters. Because the situation was tense, Mike Brown's old habit recurred. He directly overloaded Howard and Pau Gasol. But it backfired, and the main force was not given to the Lakers.
What a turnaround it brought, but due to the decline in physical strength, the defense of the two became more unstable. Especially Gasol, he had three personal fouls in this quarter alone.
Gasol underwent surgical treatment for plantar fasciitis this offseason, and his recovery momentum is very good, but after all, he is a person who has been on the operating table, and suddenly he is given such intense playing time. For his
The physical condition is actually very disadvantageous. However, Mike Brown is under great psychological pressure this season, so in order to win his first victory as soon as possible, he can only resort to the old method and fuck the main players with great force.
In this quarter of the game, Kobe's shooting percentage was not high, with 1 of 4 shots. Without Nash to deliver the bombs, his offensive efficiency immediately dropped by a notch.
19-30 in a single quarter, the Lakers scored 76-92, trailing the Portland Trail Blazers.
In the fourth quarter, Kobe Bryant scored another 9 points, and the Lakers scored a total of 30 points. However, the hole dug in front of them was too big, so they lost to the Portlanders by 10 points, 106-116. In this game,
The shooting percentage was as high as 50%, the team's total rebounds were as high as 45, and the team's total assists were as high as 21. It was another data sheet that was crushed across the board, especially in rebounding, the Lakers surpassed the Trail Blazers
A total of 15, but unfortunately, it was still impossible to escape defeat.
Tang Qian played very little time in this game and only had 4 rebounds in total.
Another "bloody storm" is about to be staged in newspapers and on the Internet.
Two straight losses in the first game! What’s wrong with the Lakers? - Los Angeles Times.
The basic data is crushed across the board, but still can't win. Whose fault is it? - The bleachers.
Steve Nash retired from injury midway, casting a shadow over the future of the Lakers! - Laker Nation.
Is this the so-called "Starship Troopers"? Is this the so-called "Four Kings"? Oh~ let me tell you one thing, the Lakers haven't won yet this season! - ESPN.
Star stacking = winning? Los Angeles people also think basketball is a bit too simple! - ESPN.
Mark Cuban said: "The Four Kings"? e.on~ This is not the first time they have formed a team! Didn't they win the championship last time? - ESPN.
This is a kind of overwhelming public opinion pressure, which is more than ten times stronger than the Los Angeles Lakers in normal times.
But all this is just the beginning, far from the end.
On November 2, the Lakers played against the Clippers in the same city at home. Without Steve Nash, the Lakers' offense was in a mess. It was as if everyone was fighting independently, without any structure or hierarchy. Look again
Opposite the Clippers, under the leadership of star Chris Paul, five of their players scored in double figures, and two of them scored more than eight points. With such scoring points everywhere, the Lakers were unable to fight back.
Since the first half of the fourth quarter, it has entered garbage time.
Even if Kobe Bryant made 14 of 23 shots in this game and scored 40 points with a shooting rate of over 60%, he still could not hide the loss of the Lakers. Because the opposite team, Chris Paul, got 15 assists in a single game.
, under his leadership, it is inevitable that the Los Angeles Clippers will break out in an all-round way.
It was another game with "weird" statistics. The Lakers shot 50% while the Clippers shot 45.2%, but they still couldn't win.
The three-game losing streak at the start of the game immediately triggered an explosion in the American media. People began to talk about the Lakers and when they would be "broken." From the menacing "Starship Troopers" before the start of the game, it became a "hot joke" in the streets in the blink of an eye.
"This change is so fast that most of the Lakers players have not yet adapted psychologically.
The next day, T.N.T TV station launched a special program, and the T.N.T team talked about Los Angeles.
O'Neal directly fired the ball, and the Lakers assembled a star lineup randomly. In fact, the four of them simply cannot coexist in a healthy way.
Kenny Smith pointed the finger at the head coach of the Lakers. He bluntly said that Mike Brown did not have the coaching ability to lead this "luxurious team", so the Lakers are still in disarray.
Charles Barkley said that the Lakers just need time to adjust, because 70% of their lineup is made up of new faces, so it is normal for a team to need a longer period of time to adjust than ordinary teams. In order to prove themselves
His point of view is correct. He also cited the example of the Miami Heat and claimed that it took a long time for the "Big Three" to be fully integrated.
He believes that the Lakers' talent is beyond doubt.
"Smiling Assassin" Thomas' point of view lies in the No. 1 position of the Lakers, because he feels that connecting the team is the natural responsibility of the No. 1 position. As long as the No. 1 position can solve this link, then the rest can be solved easily.
And he felt that Steve Nash had such qualities and abilities.
Reggie Miller focused on the team chemistry of the Lakers. He gave an example that the Lakers lost eight games in a row in the preseason and averaged 18.9 and 19 turnovers per game, which is the highest in professional basketball games.
, is almost a self-destructive number of turnovers. No matter how strong the lineup is on paper, it cannot be worth the "damage" of this set of data. Then look at the Lakers' last three games, 17 turnovers in the first game, and 17 turnovers in the second game.
There were 24 turnovers in the first game and 20 turnovers in the third game. With such a high turnover rate, it becomes very easy for the opponent to counterattack. All you need to do is be quiet and wait for you to make mistakes.
If the Lakers can't solve this problem, then he won't find it surprising even if they lose 10 consecutive games in the regular season, let alone three consecutive losses.
These people are all veteran NBA players, so they often have unique and sharp insights into issues.
Tang Qian watched this program for a while and felt that it was at least much more reliable than the analysis from ESPN. This year's ESPN seemed to be well prepared for the "Big Black Kobe Bryant". The entire analysis program, from beginning to end,
Three words that never hurt Kobe. Tang Qian felt funny while watching it. He didn’t know how he became a giant in the American sports industry with such professionalism. Perhaps ESPN has more insights into the other three major leagues in North America.
Professionalism is more in line with the status of a sports giant.
In the fourth game, Kobe seemed determined to win. He took over Nash's baton, transformed into the team's No. 1 position, and began to organize and connect the team. This effect was extremely obvious, and the Detroit Pistons did not have it at all.
This aspect of preparation led to a surprise victory by the Lakers, 108-79, a huge score to win the game.
Although Kobe only scored 15 points in this game, he also got 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals. This change finally led to the Lakers' first victory of the new season. Howard scored a game-high 28 points.
, was a little "got carried away" and opened his mouth directly at the post-game press conference: "This is the Lakers' victory mode, we should have done this long ago!"
As soon as this sentence came out, what did Kobe think?
Do you want me to play the No. 1 position full-time? What if Steve Nash comes back? And...
My instinct as Kobe Bryant is to score, score, and score!!!
The stopgap measure can be used for a while, but it can never last for an entire season!!!
Otherwise, if you let me be in the Lakers, where would I be???
The Lakers' version of "Power and Game" gradually began to reveal itself on the dark side.
As for Tang Qian, he is still waiting for the opportunity.
A blockbuster opportunity.
Because he knew deep down in his heart that if he wanted to gain a foothold in this "luxurious army", it would be impossible without a "big scene". And the time for the big scene was coming soon.
PS: I saw someone asking, what should Tang Qian do when Howard is here? In fact, Xiao Zi has already arranged the plot, so you don’t have to worry about it. In fact, if someone is familiar with that period of history, they should be able to guess how Tang Qian will be "natural"
"The up-and-coming.
Xiao Zi is out of town now, so she squeezes in time to update each chapter in the Internet cafe. She can't explode for the time being, but Xiao Zi will go home on the 4th or 5th, and Xiao Zi will explode as soon as she gets home.
Don't worry, everyone~
I would like to ask for your recommendation vote. The Lakers this season really need your support~
