Jim Bass Ambition

Chapter 380
The next day, the Lakers returned to Los Angeles, and their opponents in the home opener were the Suns, who were so dark in the playoffs last season.

In Jim's view, the Suns' lineup has been downgraded in an all-round way. Last season's two outside guns, Joe Johnson and Quentin Richardson, have degenerated into Raja Bell and James Jones. The threat is much smaller, and the weakest The inside line also didn't get any reinforcements, but the basic salary picked up a semi-waste Brian Grant who was laid off by the Heat.Jim believes the Suns will have a tough time until Boris Diaw's abilities are fully developed.

The course of the game also faithfully reflected this prediction. Although Nash and Marion were still unstoppable, Zonda bravely scored 18 points and sent 17 assists, and Hacker took the lead in scoring 33 points and 12 rebounds. Gained the upper hand in the offensive battle. This time it was Kobe's turn for the Lakers to explode. The Flash did not save any face for former teammate Raja Bell. He hit 8 three-pointers and scored 42 points. Garnett dominated the inside , The large double-double of 25 points and 22 rebounds made Carlos Boozer feel ashamed, and Wade also scored 21 points with high efficiency.

上一场比赛表现低迷的奥多姆这场比赛有所回暖，8投4中得到9分7篮板7助攻，算是达到了准三双。

Both sides had over 110 rounds. The pace of the game was extremely fast and dazzling. There were endless wonderful shots, and the official five best goals of the day were swept.The tacit connection between Nash and Marion, Wade's explosive dunk after a sharp breakthrough, the continuous back pass between Kobe, Garnett and Odom, "passing the ball into the basket"...

Of course, there are also objective reasons for this rare situation. One: there are only two games that day; two: the other game is the Pacers against the Pistons.

The Lakers defeated the Suns 127 to 115 in this visual feast, winning two consecutive victories.

After that, the Lakers continued to sit at home and played against the Denver Nuggets for the second time in a week.

The Denver Nuggets and George Karl are now in the mood to drag out the person who arranged the schedule and beat him up. If the schedule is arranged by a computer, dismantle that damn computer into parts.

4 games before the start of the game, 2 games against the Lakers, 1 game against the Spurs, and the next game against the Mavericks. If it wasn't for the previous game when I met the Trail Blazers who were determined to be bad, they slaughtered the opponent for 40 points to vent their grievances. , It is a wave of losing streak.

Meeting the Lakers again, the Lakers’ one-on-one four-up tactic was an insurmountable moat for the Nuggets who lacked outside shooting ability. Don Nelson began to regain his famous defense. The Lakers’ opponents scored high because of the fast-paced game and many rounds. , In terms of limiting shooting percentage and making mistakes, the Lakers have done a good job, unlike Van Gundy's Rockets, which rely on slowing down the rhythm and reducing the number of rounds to limit opponents' scoring.

In the last game, he scored 23 points, 17 rebounds and 9 blocks against Ha Seung-jin and other five-tier insiders in the league. With 9 points and 7 rebounds, he huddled under the basket and waited for the block defense, and was ruthlessly targeted by the Lakers. Don Nelson took advantage of his characteristics and arranged a lot of pick-and-roll cooperation between Kobe, Wade and Garnett. ·Camby switches defenses and recovers, and shoots immediately, reducing the number of passes and ensuring retreat.

The Nuggets couldn't play a fast break, and the positional battle could only rely on Anthony's strong attack on Artest and Kenyon Martin's piecemeal play to score. 18, scoring 9 points is still not enough to help the team win.

Kobe continued to perform hotly, scoring 37 points, Wade scored a triple-double with 19 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, Billups hit 4 three-pointers and scored 15 points, the Lakers beat the Nuggets 119-101, the only fly in the ointment One point is that at the last moment of the game, when the Lakers players had given up on defense, Nuggets guard DeMar Johnson dunked an empty basket and scored two points for himself, which also ruined the dream taco of Lakers fans , which saved Jim $2 in disguise.

Amid the boos of the fans, the Lakers won three consecutive victories.

"Demar Johnson probably doesn't know what he did. The value of this dunk may be equivalent to one-tenth of his income this season. After all, he has a short contract of 10 days, and I don't know if I can stay in this league after two weeks."

"For such players, shouldn't they seize every opportunity to express themselves? There is nothing worthy of criticism."

Next, in the away game against the Atlanta Hawks, the Lakers easily won the opponent without much effort. The Hawks' Josh Childress and Zaza Pachulia jointly sent the Lakers 11 blocks , among which Garnett contributed 8 blocks alone, setting a new career high.

The Hawks had few bright spots. Joe Johnson scored 20 points on 11 of 29 shots, which was the only consolation.

For the Lakers, Kyle Korver hit 4 three-pointers in the second half and scored 18 points. His performance was outstanding.

Here the Lakers, led by Don Nelson, played triumphant songs all the way, while Jim and Kupchak were also acting secretly. Before the Spurs did not rise, the Celtics and the Lakers were the league's largest "evil power group". "Jerry West and his Grizzlies are naturally one of the important allies of the Lakers. Pat Riley and the Heat he controls currently have no direct conflict of interest with the Lakers. The primary goal of the Heat is to accumulate strength. Overthrow the two mountains of the Pistons and the Pacers that have been lying in the east for a long time.

With the sad retirement of Reggie Miller and the aging of Gary Payton, the strength of the Pacers has declined. Fortunately, Larry Bird got an assist from Danny Angie and used Fred Jones, etc. People, plus future picks and the Warriors' picks from the Al Harrington trade, which got Ricky Davis and Antawn Walker from the Celtics, plus using Al Harrington Linton traded for Mike Dunleavy Jr., who finally played a little worth last season, and once again formed a team that looks pretty good, and is bound to avenge the Pistons.

The Celtics have accumulated a large number of rookies and draft picks. Lavlenz's junk contract is about to expire. Ricky Davis and Antoine Walker have been cleaned up. The team intends to use Pierce as the core , Relying on draft picks to rebuild in the next few years, the team already has good young people such as Tony Allen, Al Jefferson and Kendrick Perkins.

It is not easy to trade players directly from Celtics teams.
