Legendary basketball manager

Beijing time on October 10th, Staples Arena.

The much-anticipated 2010-11 season, the NBA regular season, has officially started!

Such an important game, CCTV will naturally not miss it.

"Hello, viewers, welcome to watch the broadcast of NBA games brought to you by CCTV-5."

"I'm Yu Jia!"

"I'm Yang Yi."

In the live broadcast room, two commentators started.

"Today I bring you the focus of the game - the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Houston Rockets game!"

"Director Yang, can you briefly analyze this game for us?"

Yu Jia asked.

"Both teams are very popular in the country, and everyone knows their situation well."

"The Lakers basically continued the lineup that won the championship last year. They are strong and strong, but the perennial high-intensity games have caused many players to be affected by injuries."

"Kobe's fingers, knees hurt."

"And the news just came out this morning-'Little Shark' Bynum had a sore knee and temporarily withdrew from the game. This is definitely good news for the Rockets!"

Yang Yi analyzed.

"Yes. Dayao made it clear last week that he will not return immediately at the beginning of the game. The Rockets lack height inside. It will be much easier for the Rockets to lose one Bynum."

Yu Jia added.

"After the Lakers finished talking, let's talk about the Rockets. They ushered in earth-shaking changes during the offseason."

"A new general manager, a new coach, and new players. What is about to appear in front of our eyes is a brand new Rockets team!"

"As the first Chinese general manager in NBA history——Shen Fei, after taking office, he immediately made moves in the draft and free agent market, and won many players."

"I believe everyone has also watched the Rockets' summer league and preseason games before! The boys Shen Fei recruited are all extremely brave, and let people see the hope of rising!"

Yang Yi said excitedly.

The existence of Dayao made the Rockets the home team of China. He naturally hoped that the Rockets would get better and better.

"I'm thinking, if Yao Ming can fully recover and return to the level of the playoffs of the previous year, coupled with the rising rookies, the Rockets will have a good competitiveness even in the Western Conference where there are many strong players."

"Moreover, the Rockets announced McGrady's return yesterday, and T-MAC will directly appear in today's starting lineup!"

"Now we don't know what kind of state McGrady is in. I want to remind the audience that he is only 30 years old and is still in the golden age of athletes.

"If he can also recover, the Rockets' competitiveness will be stronger than ever!"

Yu Jia said expectantly.

"Yes, let's also bless the Yao Mai combination, and hope that they can all recover!"

Yang Yi said with a smile.

"Okay, the game will start right away, let's pass the camera to the front!"

Yu Jia waved the screen and arrived at the Staples Center.

............

At this time, the starting players of both sides have already walked to the center of the field one after another.

After seeing the Rockets' five players on the field, the two commentators of CCTV were dumbfounded.

"Am I not mistaken? The starting lineup of the Rockets has nothing in common with last season!"

Yang Yi exclaimed.

"I just got the starting rosters for both sides."

"The Lakers still have a regular lineup: Fisher, Kobe, Metta World Peace, Odom and Gasol. These people are the core team they won last year."

"But the Rockets sent out a new lineup consisting of Lowry, Tracy McGrady, George, Griffin and Tucker!"

"And last year's regular starters for the Rockets -- Battier, Scola, Kevin Martin -- all sat on the bench."

Yu Jia looked at the materials in his hand and said in surprise.

"I don't know what Mark Jackson is thinking! He was a very good player in the past, but as a rookie coach, his use of troops is too bold."

Yang Yi commented.

"I think this is not just bold, it should be described as horror."

Yu Jia said with a smile, but the smile was a bit bitter.

In his eyes, the formation of troops like Mark Jackson is completely nonsense!

Could it be that the Rockets are about to usher in a disastrous defeat in the first game of the season?

"Yes. This lineup not only has too many rookies, but also lacks game experience; more seriously, Mark Jackson didn't arrange a center to play at all!"

"Griffin and Tucker are both over two meters tall. Is it realistic for you to let them fight Gaso and Odom?"

"I really doubt Mark Jackson's coaching level now."

Yang Yi said seriously.

At the same time, the Lakers fans at the Staples Center even laughed after seeing such a strange lineup of their opponents:

"What are the Rockets doing? Did they give up struggling in the season opener and just mess it up?"

"Gasol can enjoy this game! I checked the information last night. The Rockets, Griffin and Tucker, don't have any experience in the NBA regular season. They are short, how can they block it?" Our interior offense?"

......

Look back on the field.

Kobe took the initiative to walk in front of Tracy McGrady and hugged and greeted his former friends.

"How's your recovery, Tracy."

Kobe asked with a smile.

"It's recovering well, you have to be careful, Bean (Kobe's nickname)."

Maddie responded with a smile.

"Okay, since you say that, then I won't show mercy."

Kobe patted McGrady on the back and said with a smile.

Although this is a joke, it is true that Kobe will not show mercy.

He has always kept a clear line between public and private.

On the court, even with his best friends, Kobe will do his best and will not do anything to release water.

In his eyes, this is the greatest respect for an opponent!

Kobe has a little understanding of McGrady's situation.

Back injuries and knee injuries are major injuries that affect his career. Although T-MAC said that he has recovered well, Kobe did not fully believe it.

How is the recovery?

Only basketball can prove it.

While the two were talking, Gasol and Griffin had already reached the middle circle, ready to jump the ball.

............

With the referee throwing the ball high, the game officially begins!

Griffin jumped up, very high.

But Gasol's height and wingspan are all above him, and he has a huge advantage in jump balls.

With a wave of his long arm, he easily won the jump ball with Griffin.

The Lakers go first!

The old fish Fisher advanced with the ball and passed the half court.

Bryant immediately pointed to Gasol, signaling to play inside.

Fisher understood and dribbled the ball to the left side of the court. After handing the ball to his wife, he immediately went down to clear the space on one side.

In this way, Gasol can safely play low singles!

He gets the ball with his back and feels the defender's position with his back.

Gasol knew very well that the opponent was much shorter than him, so he subconsciously thought that he also had an advantage in strength, and immediately pushed the ball forward.

But after a few pushes, he suddenly discovered that the foot of Tucker behind him was as stable as Mount Tai, standing motionless on the spot.

"Taker's lower body strength is good! Gasol can't stand him."

Yu Jia commented.

"This Tucker should be similar to Hayes' defensive style. He is short and powerful. To play this kind of player, he should fight high and quickly resolve the battle."

Yang Yi analyzed.

Gasol has experienced many battles, so he naturally thought of this.

His center of gravity sank, he pushed his left shoulder hard, and turned around, ready to turn over and shoot...

"Snapped!"

A muffled sound.

It turned out to be a black hand that cut straight on the ball.

Gasol looked surprised, because of inertia, he raised his hands up, but the ball stayed where it was.

"Nice cut!"

Yu Jia exclaimed.

After a successful steal, Tucker handed the ball to Lowry next to him, and the Rockets immediately launched a counterattack.

Lowry advanced at high speed and passed the half court. At the same time, one person on each wing rushed towards the basket.

The two are similar in stature, both "thin and tall".

It was Maddie and George!

Lowry faced George, but suddenly made a no-look-pass and passed the ball to McGrady on the other side!
