The first point guard in basketball

Chapter 462 Odds list for winning the championship, the defending champion who is underestimated
The reason for the fight is very simple, because of the position of the boss, and when Dameng was getting old, Pippen went to the Blazers to hug his thigh again, because the talk with the Grizzlies collapsed. In fact, Pippen wanted to join the Grizzlies, because joining the Grizzlies was more likely to win the championship than the Blazers. Although the Lakers had a Super F5, Pippen was not optimistic about this lineup.

Therefore, who is the boss of the Rockets has become a problem that must be faced. After the Rockets won the championship, Barkley should have no desires and desires.And Olajuwon has also started to enter Alexander's cleanup list. When Olajuwon's contract ends, he and Ewing will have the same fate, but unlike Ewing, Ewing at least made more money in the Knicks, but Dameng really didn't make any money in the Rockets these years.

Since he is the core of the future, just wait for the future with peace of mind, but who is Francis? He is openly provoking the existence of NBA teams. He was selected and not reported. He can only be traded to the Rockets by the Hornets. In the historical space, he was traded from the Grizzlies to the Rockets.But in the preseason, the problem came out all of a sudden. As a point guard, the first time is not to pass the ball but to score.

Barkley endured it at first. After all, he is a veteran in the league for many years. It is not an overnight thing to get in touch with his teammates. There is no rush at all, so they lost the first preseason game. However, the victory or defeat of the preseason game is not important.

In the second game, Francis was still the same, and Barkley was still enduring. He still believed that Francis would not turn a blind eye to him, the number one power forward (self-proclaimed) in history.

But in the second game, Francis made 30 of 10 shots and scored 30 points. He took 30 shots and scored 30 points. This is actually a very rubbish shooting percentage.

In the third game, Francis still played like this. As a result, Barkley couldn't bear it anymore and shot Francis directly from the bench. How could Francis bear it. From high school to college, he was the so-called absolute core.Those who love him think he is omnipotent, while those who hate him think he is a data brush.

This fight has made the Rockets' team turbulent, because everyone needs to reach the moment of the team. Whether to stand on Barkley's side or on the side of the future core, the other players of the Rockets have reached the moment when they need to make a decision.

These problems are not uncommon in the league, so except for the local media in Houston, no one in other teams cares at all.Because with the progress of the preseason, the regular season is about to start.

Before the start of the regular season, ESPN announced the odds rankings for the new season's championship-the first is the Lakers, because the opponent's Super F5 has no team in the league on paper that can be compared with the opponent.The second place is the defending champion Grizzlies. The reason why they are ranked second is because the Grizzlies left a lot of people during the offseason, which caused the thickness of the entire lineup to weaken a lot. Although the team also had a lot of signings during the offseason, but not many actually helped the team. How far the Grizzlies can go depends on the performance of Duncan and Xiao Tian. The level of these two cores means how far the team can go.

The remaining teams are all from the East, but they certainly cannot compare with the West in terms of competitiveness. It is an indisputable fact that the collapse of the Bulls dynasty has turned the East into a weak competition.

For the remaining games of the preseason, Xiao Tian and other main players did not participate. All the participants were new players and rookies. How far the Grizzlies can go next season depends entirely on the performance of these guys, because basketball is never a two-person sport.

Xiao Tian didn't go to the preseason, but he wasn't idle either. He still spent every day in the training space, training himself crazily. Everything outside had nothing to do with him. The Lakers' F5 put a lot of pressure on Xiao Tian, ​​because according to the system, the current lineup of the Lakers is the lineup of a super dynasty team, so it is simply not realistic to want to ravage the Lakers like in previous seasons.But Xiao Tian still wants to keep winning streak against the Lakers. As a traverser, how terrifying the OK combination is, there is no need to go into details at all. With the addition of Glenn Rice, Malone and Payton, how scary this team is. It was really forced out by myself. This team can be called the universe team. However, compared with the other four, there is still a big gap between him and the other four, because he is the only second-round pick among the other four. After all, there are too few second-round picks like Ginobili, Rodman, and Arenas, and most second-round picks disappear from the league after only a few seasons.

But the Lakers didn't. Maybe Glenn Rice's defense is not good, but the opponent can help defend, and the other four players have top-level defensive abilities. Now O'Neal has no championship, and his defense is not as inert as in the historical space. It depends entirely on his mood to defend. He is not qualified to do that now.Because O'Neill felt the threat Xiao Tian brought him, this kind of threat was the first time O'Neill encountered since his playing career.

So Xiao Tian had to risk his life, he had to win a three-peat championship first, and talk about other things later.This is Xiao Tian's bottom line goal.It’s just that this season will be the biggest challenge. The only consolation is that Malone signed a one-year contract. The Lakers have already paid a lot of luxury tax with O’Neal, Kobe, Payton and Glen Rice.
