NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

The Lakers beat the Pelicans.

But everyone who watched this game became interested in the Pelicans' twin-tower combination.

This game, especially in the third quarter.

Everyone has seen the dominance of the Twin Towers combination inside.

If it weren't for their poor lineup, it is not certain who will win this game.

Chen Tian is really good. If the game is stalemate to the end, the Lakers will definitely win.

But this game also let everyone know that the Lakers are not invincible.

Because this field is not a one-man battle.

Chen Tian is just one person, he can defend Davis and even Cousins.

But he couldn't defend two people.

Since Chen Tian entered the league, the Lakers' weakness has always been inside.

It's just that the current basketball has developed more and more outside.

Whether it is the Cavaliers or the Warriors, they actually know the weaknesses of the Lakers.

But what can be done.

The team's salary cap is there, and it is impossible for them to pay a large luxury tax.

On the Cavaliers side, there are big contracts for James and Love.

What insiders can they reinforce, and what powerful insiders can they reinforce now.

Not to mention the Warriors.

The three Curry, Clay, and Green were all cultivated by the Warriors over the years.

How could they be willing to trade them out.

So this has caused their insiders to be weak, just like the Lakers.

Since they are all weaknesses, we have to fight for the outside line.

But the Lakers have Chen Tian on the outside line, and the gap has come out now.

On the other hand, a deal by the Pelicans has taken the most correct step.

Now everyone is applauding this deal for the Pelicans.

And Cousins ​​​​has become the number one active center among all the population.

After the All-Star game, Cousins ​​seemed to have a sense of enlightenment.

Cousins ​​was also very happy after seeing everyone's evaluation of him.

Now he is even more determined, what Chen Tian said to him is correct.

And Chen Tian didn't expect that a little help from himself would actually change the structure of the alliance in the future.

Chen Tian didn't know if he would regret his decision at that time.

After Chen Tian returned to the manor, he also saw the news after the match.

And those who had been waiting for Chen Tian to come back, Zhou Ling'an and Mei Na also came together.

"Husband, it seems that the team to deal with the Lakers has come out."

Mina also said thoughtfully on the side.

Chen Tian smiled and nodded.

"Isn't this better? It's more interesting when it's challenging."

"You know last season, for me, the whole series wasn't very challenging."

"Only in the Olympics, against the Dream Team, did I feel pressured."

Zhou Ling'an on the side also nodded and said.

"In fact, if the Grizzlies' perimeter is better, then they are a very strong opponent."

As soon as these words came out, Chen Tian also nodded.

In fact, since Chen Tian entered the league, no matter what level the Lakers have reached.

When facing the Grizzlies, there is a kind of pressure.

This is also the pressure of the black and white bears on the Lakers.

As Zhou Ling'an said, if the Grizzlies' perimeter was better, then the Grizzlies would definitely be a different kind of team.

Check out their perimeter.

Conley is a traditional pass guard.

Tony Allen is a player who can only defend.

The Grizzlies have always been a shortcoming as a forward.

So we can only rely on the black and white bears to keep the team's offense.

And the offense of the black and white bears is not particularly strong.

So this has also caused the Grizzlies to have a year-round performance.

You said they are great, and they are ranked fifth or seventh in the West all the year round.

You say they are not good, the Lakers lost to them.

But the Pelicans are different.

Not to mention that the offenses of Cousins ​​and Davis are already strong.

Coupled with the Pelicans' sufficient salary space, they can make a big move in the offseason.

Let the team enter the playoffs next season.

If among the girls, who can give Chen Tian advice on basketball, it must be Zhou Ling'an and Mei Na.

After all, one of them has been a reporter in the NBA for many years.

The other is also the NBA that has been commenting for many years.

The two are too familiar with the NBA.

And Mina also said at this time.

"Actually, there is no need to worry so much. After all, the Pelicans this season are still not a threat to the Lakers."

"As long as the Lakers win the championship again this season, the new dynasty of the Lakers will be successfully established."

When Chen Tian heard this, he also nodded.

"What Mina said is absolutely right, let's talk about this season first."

The two girls also nodded when they heard Chen Tian's words.

After all, no season is more critical than this one.

You must know that there are only three teams in the entire NBA that have completed three consecutive championships.

And the number of times to complete three consecutive championships is only five times.

It is conceivable how difficult it is for NBA teams to win three consecutive championships.

Don't talk about anything else, even the Lakers this season have had a lot of difficulties, and they have survived until this time.

So this season, if the Lakers can't win the championship.

For the Lakers, what they are facing is to start all over again.

There will also be some changes to the team lineup.

This is a truth that the NBA has never changed.

The next day, Chen Tian was also going to watch the NCAA match between Lin Sen and the three of them.

As for the team, there will be two consecutive away games.

The Mavericks and the Suns are going to play against each other.

Neither team is a strong team.

The Suns are now the bottom team in the West. If nothing else, they are also the team with the greatest hope of competing for the No. [-] pick.

The Mavericks are still struggling with the core of the team.

After a season of trials, they finally knew that Barnes was not a qualified leader.

Now the core of the team still needs veteran Nowitzki to control it.

It can be said that the Mavericks this season is also the most failed team.

They neither started rebuilding nor determined what they were going to do.

They seem to have strengthened the team, but they seem to have done nothing.

But some young players in the team are still good.

Curry played quite well in the Mavericks, and his three-point shooting skills have also developed more and more like his brother.

And Amu and Powell also grew up.

If nothing else, the two of them will be the Mavericks' championship puzzle in the future.

But the core problem of the Mavericks has not changed in the slightest.

If this problem does not change, no matter how much the Mavericks do, it will be useless.

So against the Mavericks, the Lakers have no pressure at all.
