NBA’s aging star system

On February 10st, the Lakers faced the Grizzlies at home.

Su Tian looked at the list of grizzly bears and showed a hint of interest.

The Grizzlies last season were really uninteresting and not challenging, but this season the Grizzlies are starting to get a little interesting.

The main reason for this is because of the Grizzlies' rookie player, Ja Morant, the future Ranger.

The Grizzlies' starting lineup is also more competitive than before.

Morant, Dillon Brooks, Jae Crowder, Jaren Jackson, Valanciunas.

However, the main players of this team are still relatively young and are not yet very competitive. It will be easy for the Lakers to figure them out.

This is also true. After the opening, Su Tian scored several consecutive goals to directly widen the point difference. So far, the Grizzlies have never caught up.

In the second half, Walton let the main team play for a few minutes as usual before starting to replace the substitute lineup and the bench.

Walton is now considered a championship coach and knows how important the players' health and rest are, so Walton also begins to focus on training the bench and young people in this kind of game.

In the end, the Lakers won the game 120-91.

Morant scored 16 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists. Although the statistics are not high, this is already the highest score among the Grizzlies.

After the game against the Grizzlies, the Lakers also won their first four consecutive victories, and they basically won relatively easily.

The combat effectiveness shown by the Lakers has made many Lakers fans look forward to this season.

After the Lakers' 4 consecutive home games at the beginning, they followed up with 3 away games.

They are, Mavericks, Spurs and Bulls.

None of these three teams are considered strong teams at the moment, so winning based on the strength of the Lakers is not a problem.

On November 11, the Lakers came to Dallas to play against the Mavericks.

In the original history, Brunson and Curry were both with the Mavericks during this period, but now they have been cut off by the Lakers.

After the game started, George personally took charge of Doncic's defensive tasks, and because he had Su Tian and thick eyebrows, George did not have to worry about the team's offensive problems, which allowed George to devote himself more fully to the game.

Although this season is only Doncic's second year as a rookie, Doncic is indeed a genius and has extremely rich offensive methods. It is also difficult for George to lock Doncic down.

At the end of the first half, the Mavericks trailed the Lakers by 11 points.

Compared with previous teams, the Mavericks are already very good.

But in the third quarter, the Lakers' starting lineup came on again. Su Tian continued to attack with the ball, widening the point difference to more than 15 points.

In the fourth quarter, Su Tian once again led the bench.

Although it was only a substitute lineup, after Su Tian opened the trap, the Mavericks' double-teaming did not work at all.

With the blessing of the "Marksman" and "Three-Point Shooter" badges, Su Tian's shooting was extremely accurate, like a divine aid.

After only half of the fourth quarter, the Mavericks replaced all their main players, and Carlisle directly announced his surrender.

Walton saw the Mavericks replace the main lineup and replace the main lineup with substitutes and benches.

In the end, the game was firmly won by the Lakers. Su Tian scored 33 points, 11 assists, 7 rebounds and 2 steals, with 20+ points. George had a little less, only 18 points.

For the Mavericks, Doncic scored a near-triple-double with 22 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds, but his shooting rate was only %, and the overall efficiency was not high.

On the inside, the combination of Big Eyebrow and McGee also steadily suppressed Porzingis, leaving Porzingis with little room to play.

On November 11, the Lakers rushed to San Antonio to play against the Spurs.

The Spurs haven't felt like they've recovered since Leonard's trade.

The current Spurs still rely on the combination of DeRozan and Aldridge.

Since the start of this season, the Spurs have 4 wins and 1 loss, which looks pretty good.

The Spurs' starting lineup for this game is Bryn Forbes, Dejounte Murray, DeRozan, Lyles, and Aldridge.

DeRozan was pushed to the third position and faced off with George.

In fact, if DeRozan plays against Su Tian at the second position, he will only lose worse. When he plays against George at the third position, he can still struggle a little.

Soon, the game started, and McGee easily took the lead.

Brunson got the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, passing the ball directly to Su Tian.

Su Tian got the ball and faced Murray's defense. Without saying a word, he pretended to break through, step back, and shoot a three-pointer.

Swah——

The three-pointer was hit steadily.

Seeing Su Tian strolling on the court, Popovich on the sidelines was infinitely jealous.

"That loser Luke Walton can also lead a team to win a championship. What does he know? What does he know? He will only listen to Su's words!"

Popovich was jealous and extremely unbalanced, but there was nothing he could do because the Spurs couldn't pay him.

At the end of the first quarter, the Spurs were already 8 points behind.

In fact, Popovich also called a timeout in the middle, but no matter how he adjusted, he could not escape the fate of being abused.

Especially DeRozan, who was given high hopes, couldn't let go when facing George's defense.

Let alone lead the team forward.

In the second quarter, George led the team on the field. The Spurs also made personnel adjustments, with Aldridge leading the team.

The two sides fought back and forth this time, but the score difference remained unchanged.

Halfway through the second quarter, George came off the court to rest, Su Tian came on to lead the team, and DeRozan also came on the court again for the Spurs.

Originally, according to the matchup, DeRozan should have faced off with Dun Luo, but Su Tian knew Dun Luo's defensive level well, so he switched defenses with Dun Luo and went to fight DeRozan himself.

Therefore, when facing off against Su Tian, ​​DeRozan was once again restricted and unable to show his true strength at all.

At the end of the first half, the point difference had stabilized to double digits.

At this time, Barkley in the commentary box couldn't help but sigh.

"I didn't expect that one day the Spurs would also be lonely."

Kenny Smith also nodded in agreement: "The Spurs have been brilliant for more than 20 years since they drafted Duncan. I thought Leonard would be the next guardian of the Spurs, but I didn't expect it to become like this."

Barkley nodded first, but then shook his head and said: "I think that starting from David Robinson, the Spurs have been a strong team, but they just don't have the ability to win the championship."

"No matter what, in short, the NBA's evergreen Spurs team seems to be withering now. I don't know when this decline will be alleviated."

"Yes, the Spurs will never be so lucky to get the No. 1 pick again and sign another Tim Duncan."

During the halftime break, Walton didn't do much to make arrangements. Now that the team is in good shape, Walton chose to let the players make adjustments on their own.

Soon the second half began, the Lakers were still the starting lineup, and the Spurs made some adjustments, but the effect was not obvious.

Halfway through the third quarter, the point difference was still double digits, and Su Tian came off the court to rest.
