Chapter 192
It is normal for Kobe to be happy. He won the championship again, and he got it as the team leader.This proves that without O'Neal, he can win the championship, and he is no worse than O'Neal.

O'Neal has four championship rings, and he has four now.The Lakers' lineup is still very strong, and they can definitely strive to defend the championship, or even go to three consecutive championships, and then establish a dynasty.

Under such a bright prospect, Kobe must of course laugh.

Everyone in the Lakers is very happy, they got their own honor.Everyone put the rings on, and then stretched out their fists for the media to take pictures and record the moment of honor.

In the end, everyone lined up, raised their fists together, and showed the rings to the fans.

The rings were given out, the display was over, and everyone else started to exit, leaving the court to the players.The first game of the new season for the Lakers is about to begin, and they are all against the Clippers, their rivals in the same city.

The same-city derby is a highlight today, and the same-city competitions in the sports world have always been very intense.Because the two teams have to compete for fans, the conflict between them is far more than that of other teams.

However, there are only such a pair in the same city in the NBA so far, and the New York Knicks and New Jersey Nets are more similar to the same city.The location of the Nets is only across a bridge from New York. Crossing the bridge is the boundary of New York, but that is New Jersey.

As the only Lakers in the NBA with rivals in the same city, they need to compete with the Clippers for fans.However, the Lakers have always had the upper hand over the years, and they have been overwhelming the Clippers until now, winning over half of the Los Angeles fans.

This year the Clippers chose a very popular No. 9 pick and want to increase the popularity of the team.But it is a pity that in September, Griffin, who was nicknamed "Gilifen" by Chinese netizens, was injured, but he is still not sure when he will recover, and he may be reimbursed for the season.

This has to remind people of Oden two years ago. Oden was also reimbursed for the season without a game.Last season's performance was unsatisfactory, far below people's expectations.If Griffin is like Oden, then the Clippers will be miserable. They finally got a No. [-] pick and completely ruined it in their hands.

Because of Griffin's injury, the Clippers' lineup hasn't changed much from last season.The starting lineup is Camby, Kaman, Butler, Gordon and Davis.

At the beginning of the game, Camby jumped the ball to win.Davis attacked Fisher with the ball. Fisher's defensive point guard is very good, but this is also limited.Davis and Kidd are basically impossible to defend, because their strength has exceeded Fisher's limit, and the defense of Billups is barely enough. It is very difficult for the remaining point guards to rely on strength to beat him .

Of course, it remains to be seen how much of the remaining point guards rely on strength.After all, point guards mainly rely on speed, and Fisher's speed is a flaw. Lao Yu has already begun to drag the Lakers back.

Davis broke into the inside, attracted the Lakers inside, and split the ball.But Gasol didn't move, but Bynum moved. Compared with Kaman, Camby's offensive ability was much worse. Zen Master's tactic was to let Camby play more and limit Kaman.For the same number of offenses, Camby and Kaman have at least half less points than Kaman, because Camby can't shoot.

The two center forwards on the field are not safe, one is better than the other.As the second place in the 96 golden generation, Camby's second is already well-known, and he was clamoring for a trade when he was in the Raptors.Later, I went to the Knicks, but I didn't play well. The Knicks have many big-name players, and Camby's tactical status is not as good as that of the Raptors.

Later, when he came to the Nuggets, he also regarded himself very highly. He was ranked high in the draft and was a player of the golden generation.So Camby took this as capital, and didn't even look down on Anthony. Finally, he broke up with the Nuggets last season due to salary issues and signed with the Clippers.

Bynum is also very bad. It may be that the draft pick is not as good as Camby's. His double is not as serious as Camby.At least before making achievements, Bynum still knows how to endure.It's like he thought that Gasol and Kobe robbed him of the ball, that is, complained, and didn't show his temper on the court because of this, how to play or how to play.

When two second-rate players faced off against each other, the inside became chaotic, and the two began to build muscle under the basket.At first it was just a normal collision, but after entangled for a while, the two actually got angry.

Muscular Bynum is slightly inferior to Camby. Camby's physical fitness is great. If he has a stronger offensive ability, he is a player like Howard.

Bynum didn't fight Camby, so he started to play tricks.There are many tricks in the Lakers' defensive training, and Bynum and Vujacic are the ones who have learned well.Bynum directly elbowed Camby's ribs, causing Camby to stagger, his side ribs hurt, and he almost shed tears.

Camby was also anxious, went up and pushed Bynum, and Bynum looked at Camby pretending to be innocent.The referee then separated the two and called Camby a technical, allowing the Lakers to free throws.

Camby yelled at the referee unconvinced, and Kaman hurriedly stopped Camby before the referee said anything.Gasol also pulled Bynum aside, but he just saw Bynum's action.

Slow-motion replay revealed Bynum's actions.But the referee did not change the decision. Under the zero-tolerance policy, the referee's decision is more important than anything else. If they do not change the decision, even if the decision is wrong, they will have no way to defend themselves.

Camby was replaced, and the Clippers' interior defense immediately had a loophole. Kaman's footsteps made it difficult for him to react quickly. Whether it was Kobe or Wu Di who entered the interior, he would definitely score.

And without Camby, Bynum's singles against DeAndre Jordan is much easier.Jordan was a rookie last season, but his defense was too rough, he often made some simple mistakes and was prone to fouls.

The ability of the Lakers to make fouls is still very strong, Kobe and Wu Di aside, Bynum, a veteran, quickly taught Jordan a lesson in making fouls, and Jordan committed two fouls in 5 minutes.

After these 5 minutes, Camby also calmed down a lot. After being replaced, he didn't compete with Bynum again.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led 35:29.

The second quarter is the time to really pull points. Most of the Lakers' games last season were decided by the second quarter.Kobe led the team to play first, and then Wu Di played.Just because the two took turns playing in the second quarter, the Lakers did not have a real sixth man. Neither Pekovic nor Sun Yue could be considered a sixth man. There is no competitiveness, not to mention votes, not even rankings.
