Chapter 258 Pekovic Returns
On the 3rd, the Lakers played against the Grizzlies at home. In this game, the Lakers were once again lost. The Grizzlies were very proud this season and defeated the Lakers twice. Even if they cannot enter the playoffs, they can still brag for a while.

On the 4th, Pekovic finally returned from injury, and the pressure on the Lakers' interior was slightly relieved, and Bobby Jackson could be given up.

On the 5th, the Lakers played against the Pistons at home. Pekovic played for the first time after recovering from injury.

Ben returned to the Pistons last season and continued to lead the Pistons' defense. However, Ben has entered the end of his career and the defensive threat has weakened a lot.

The former five Pistons fell apart, Daben went back and forth, Billups and Rasheed Wallace also left one after another, leaving Hamilton and Prince to stick.The two have almost entered the later stages of their careers. Pistons newcomers Stuckey and Greg Monroe have performed well, and Ben Gordon, who came from the Bulls, and the former superstar Tracy McGrady form the current lineup.

The Rockets' Yao-Mai combination is now in a miserable state. Yao is injured or injured, and McGrady can only play as a substitute.This made Wu Di a little sad. Before the game, he and Tracy McGrady talked for a long time and recalled their time as teammates in the Rockets.

After the start of the game, the Lakers adjusted the starting lineup, the United Arab Emirates returned to the bench, and Pekovic served as the starter.Because the Pistons' starting lineup is Big Ben, Greg Monroe, Prince, Hamilton, Stuckey.

It was because of the big book that the Zen master let Pekovic start.Big Ben's defensive threat has declined, but he still retains the experience of his best defensive player.Although Gasol is taller than Daben, his strength is much weaker than Daben. In order to liberate Gasol, Zen Master let Pekovic play to use his strength to fight Daben and keep rebounds.

Because whether it is Gasol or the United Arab Emirates, there are some disadvantages against the strength of the big ben.And this should not be their role, they are the inside line to open up the space.

The Pistons' lineup seems to be very strong, but there are too many veterans in it, and the defense is strong, but the defense against fast breaks is very weak, and they cannot keep up with the speed of the Lakers.

Pekovic resisted Ben and used his height to protect the rebound.Gasol gave rookie Monroe a lesson and sent him off with six fouls.Wu Di and Kobe played normally, and the Lakers easily defeated the Pistons.

On the 6th, the Lakers almost lost against the Suns back to back.Back-to-back games are already exhausting, and they are still played by a team like the Suns that tests their touch.

The Suns traded Richardson for Carter of the Magic last month. As a former superstar, Carter still maintains a competitive state.Since he was injured, he has not been able to show the demeanor of a superstar, but he has maintained his health and competitive state over the years.

At the same time, was traded with Carter, and Marcin Gortat, this is a center with great potential.The center of the Magic is Howard's confinement, and Gortat has no chance at all.

The Suns felt very good in this game, and they actually led all the way against the Lakers.If Wu Di hadn't made two consecutive three-pointers in the end to overtake the score, the Lakers might have lost.

On the 8th, the Lakers played against the Hornets at home.

After Pekovic returned, the strength of the Lakers' lineup became stronger.The Hornets just struggled a bit before disarming and surrendering.

Then the Lakers went on another winning streak, defeating the Knicks on the 10th. The Knicks don't have much salary this season.According to the Knicks' habit of spending money lavishly, you can't sign good players without spending money. Apart from Stoudemire, the only ones who can be compared are Raymond Felton, Wilson Chandler, and Ronaldo Gallinari. Good player.However, these three players are all powerful but not famous players. If Wu Di hadn't prepared before playing the game, he might have even forgotten these three players.

On the 12th, the Lakers defeated the Cavaliers. In this game, the Lakers almost surpassed the largest point difference. 123:57, a margin of 66 points, only 2 points away from the largest point difference in NBA history.

In this game, the Lakers made 32 of 19 three-pointers and the team had 21 steals.However, because the Cavaliers left James, the team's strength dropped sharply, the defense did not do well, and the team made too many turnovers, with 26 turnovers.If it weren't for the Lakers who also had 13 turnovers, the Cavaliers don't know how many points they would lose!
Wu Di is the best player in this game. He has 32 points, 10 assists, 11 steals and 6 rebounds. If the rebounds did not drag him down, he would have won a quadruple-double in this game.

Judging from the performance of the Cavaliers, Wu Di can already be sure that they have fallen to the bottom.From a strong team in the league to a strong contender for the No. [-] pick, there is only one superstar missing.

On the 13th, the Lakers played against the Warriors away from home.The Warriors' record this season is not very good. Monta Ellis occupies too many shots, and the shots of other players are obviously occupied.Moreover, Monta Ellis plays relatively independently, and basically can't get out when he gets the ball.

The Warriors management wants to train Curry. This guard's three-pointer is too accurate. After training, it is definitely a sharp weapon.Moreover, because of Curry's short height and relatively fast speed, his breakthrough is also very threatening, and he can completely replace Monta Ellis.

In this game, Curry broke out, and the three-pointer was accurate.Fisher couldn't keep up with his speed at all. He dribbled to the frontcourt, threw Fisher away, and shot when he got an open spot.

Later, Jackson had to replace Ariza to defend, otherwise, Curry would be able to solve the game by himself.

The hero of this game is Pekovic. Pekovic withstood the Warriors inside and kept grabbing rebounds, ensuring the Lakers' rebounds and not letting the Lakers lose.

On the 15th, the Lakers played against the Nets at home. The Nets have not become stronger over the years.The Lakers easily defeated the Nets and completed 7 consecutive victories.

On the 17th and 18th, the Lakers played the Clippers and Thunder back-to-back.

The Clippers are very strong this season. The inside combination of Jordan and Griffin has allowed them to beat many teams. The Lakers have fallen into the hands of the Clippers.

However, the Lakers won this game. With the cooperation of Pekovic and Gasol, they successfully dealt with Jordan and Griffin.After Pekovic returned from injury, there were signs of an explosion, double-doubles every game, which was impossible before.

Having said that, Bynum's injury gave him a chance, and he began to show his strength.Pekovic's outburst has given the Lakers management new ideas. They want to trade Bynum and let Pekovic officially start.

This will not only free up space, but Bynum's salary of 1400 million is too high, and the management will also consider Wu Di's summer contract extension. Wu Di will definitely have the maximum salary, and salary space must be made available for him.
