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

Paul and James looked at Chen Tian opposite, their eyes full of unwillingness.

Both of them were losers under Chen Tian.

So every time the two faced Chen Tian, ​​their eyes were full of anger.

In fact, James and Chen Tian had a good relationship during Chen Tian's first season.

But as Chen Tian defeated him continuously, his heart became more and more unbalanced.

Then there was a situation where the two sprayed each other on the Internet.

And as Chen Tian won the second championship last season, his advantage over Chen Tian was gone.

You must know that Chen Tianna is a person who debuted at the pinnacle.

If we talk about the second season, Chen Tian, ​​Anthony and others teamed up to win the championship.

Chen Tian won the championship in the first season, that must be his own strength.

We must know that in that season, apart from Chen Tian, ​​the Lakers did not have an absolute superstar.

Kobe is a 35-year-old man who has suffered serious injuries and has never scored 30 points in an entire season.

Can it still be called a superstar? It can only be said that Kobe has enough experience.

Of the remaining people, who else can be better than Anthony.

But with that lineup, they beat the Cavaliers led by James.

Finally won the championship.

From that moment on, the Lakers officially rose.

Gradually, James could only look at Chen Tian's back.

For the Lakers this season, Jokic has risen even stronger.

This made James feel even more uncomfortable.

Because everyone knows that if the Cavaliers still can't win the championship this season.

The Cavaliers lineup is about to change.

If James doesn't leave the Cavaliers, he may never win a championship in his life.

In fact, the Warriors are in the same situation as James now.

And the Warriors have made an even bigger lineup this season.

If they can't win the championship, the lineup of the Big Four will be separated immediately.

After all, getting these four people together, the Warriors can be said to have spent a high luxury tax this season.

If you can't win the championship, who is willing to spend this money.

After all, that's a lot of money.

So this is every time the Cavaliers and Warriors face the Lakers, they will do their best to win this game.

At this time, the starting players of the two teams also appeared.

The starting player for the Cavaliers.

Point guard: Chris Paul.

Score: Iman Shumpert.

Small forward: LeBron James.

Power forward: Kevin Love.

Center: Dwight Howard.

Nothing has changed, and these five players are still the starters.

But when the Lakers lineup came out, both the fans and the Cavaliers were shocked.

Because Yi Jianlian was on the starting lineup, Anthony was placed on the bench.

This change still makes fans feel strange.

Because before the game, Anthony participated in the warm-up.

So there is no possibility of Anthony being injured.

And all of this needs to wait for the game to start before knowing the result.

But coach Tylen Lue of the Cavaliers felt something was very wrong.

This is obviously the adjustment made by the opponent for this game.

Soon Jokic and Howard stood in the middle circle.

The referee threw the ball high, and the two jumped at the same time. I have to say that Howard still has the ability.

Jump the ball with ease, and the game officially begins.

The Cavaliers got the first wave of offensive possessions.

As soon as he came up, Paul passed the ball to Howard, and then Howard also singled Jokic inside, and then scored the ball with a small hook.

This is also the tactic that the Cavaliers formulated before.

Howard is a key to the Cavaliers' victory.

After all, facing the current Jokic, Howard can still fight.

Maybe next season, but not necessarily.

These are all thoughts in Tylen Lue's heart.

But following an offense by the Lakers, let Tyronn Lue know how ridiculous this idea is.

Here the Lakers attack, and Jokic gets the ball at the top of the arc.

Chen Tian used the cover to catch the ball, and then directly hit the basket.

Howard came back to defend, and Chen Tian passed the ball back to Jokic.

Jokic scored with an easy mid-range shot.

Jokic didn't mean to go to the basket throughout the whole process.

Just hovering around the three-second zone.

Seeing this scene, Tai Lue also cursed Falk.

Tyronn Lue knew that there was no advantage in this, at most it would be a mutual explosion.

After all, Howard doesn't have the defensive ability he had when he was young.

For the young Howard, he rushed from the inside and could defend beyond the three-point line.

Now it is an acre of three-point land under the basket.

And Paul's game is also quite depressed.

Because the defensive player facing him turned out to be Tucker.

You must know that Tucker also belongs to a different category in the NBA.

Especially in the past two years, Tucker's Lakers have gradually come out.

More and more people began to pay attention to Tucker.

Tucker's figure is simply born for defense.

He is not tall, but his body is particularly strong.

And the traverse speed is very fast.

So Tucker is also a person who can defend from the first position to the fifth position.

If you encounter a soft center, Tucker can really defend the opponent.

And Paul's special skill is to fight big with small things.

But facing Tucker, Paul felt a little numb.

Let's fight for speed, this guy is moving sideways quite fast.

Let's work hard, look at Tucker's muscles, Paul decisively gave up this idea.

This made Paul quite uncomfortable.

But this luck came, and it was really easy to use.

The ball finally returned to Paul's hands, and 24 seconds were running out.

In the end, Paul could only force a shot, and Tucker's defense has reached the extreme.

But the ball still went in.

Tucker shook his head when the goal was scored.

And this goal scored, Paul's confidence also came out.

After a period of time, the offense of the two teams showed a completely different form.

For the Lakers, it was the cooperation of Chen Tian and Jokic.

Then the three of Tucker played support, and gradually the Lakers' offense started.

And the Cavaliers are not ideal.

Originally wanted Howard to play in the first quarter.

But Jokic and Yi Jianlian on the Lakers also adopted double-team tactics against Howard.

Howard, you want him to defend and rebound, but he is really not good at passing.

When he passed the ball and then turned to Love, Yi Jianlian had already returned to the defensive position.

Monty watched such a defense off the court and gave Kaleman a thumbs up.

This kind of defense is what Kaleman can do.

This completely paralyzed the Cavaliers' inside offense and could only rely on the team's outside.

Fortunately, Paul feels good, so that the Cavaliers were not stretched too much.

But Tucker was a little uncomfortable watching Paul score more goals.

Soon the first quarter was over.

The Lakers temporarily lead by five points with 33:28.
