NBA’s aging star system

The day after Cousins' workout, the Lakers officially announced the news.

"DeMarcus Cousins ​​passed the trial training and now officially joins the Lakers! 》

As the current major traffic player in the league, the Lakers aroused everyone's discussion as soon as the news came out.

"Cousins ​​went to the Lakers? Who is Cousins ​​winning the championship? Where is he going?"

"It can be seen that Cousins ​​really wants a championship ring. I hope he can get his wish this time."

"So the Lakers are now Davis + Cousins! The Lakers are taking off!!"

"The Pelicans and Twin Towers and the Lakers are reunited!!! The Lakers are mighty!!!"

"Now it's really the finale! Five-star Lakers! Attack!!"

However, although the news has been officially announced, the relevant procedures and procedures have not yet been completed, and the game cannot be played immediately.

On November 11, the Lakers faced the Raptors at home.

Before the game started, Su Tian noticed that something was wrong with Boucher's condition.

Su Tian thought for a moment and realized that this guy was probably a little anxious because of Cousins' matter.

So, as the big brother of the team, Su Tian stepped forward to comfort Boucher.

"Chris, what are you thinking about?"

"Su? It's nothing, I'm just thinking about today's game."

Su Tian stepped forward and patted Boucher on the back and said: "I know what you are worried about. Don't be afraid. The team's substitute center has not yet been determined. As long as you show excellent performance on the court, anyone can take it." Don’t take your place.”

After hearing Su Tian's comforting words, Boucher also felt better.

"Okay Su, thank you, I will try my best."

Soon, the game time came and players from both sides began to take the field.

As the teams that faced each other in the Finals last season, the Raptors and Lakers should have attracted most of the attention.

But because of Leonard's departure and forming a super team with James, the Raptors have no star flavor at all.

And this time the Raptors' starting lineup also looked unremarkable.

VanVleet, Powell, Anunoby, Siakam, Gasol.

The Lakers continued the starting lineup from the previous game, Brunson, Nunn, Su Tian, ​​George, and McGee.

Soon the game started, McGee once again easily won the right to attack, and Brunson got the ball and came to the frontcourt.

After Brunson came to the frontcourt, he faced Van Fleet's defense.

VanVleet doesn't have any special feelings for Brunson, but Brunson is different. Brunson was not able to play all the games in the finals, which has always been Brunson's regret.

Now facing the Raptors, Brunson naturally wants to perform well and make up for his regrets.

Seeing Brunson's high quality, Su Tian didn't say anything. After all, the Raptors without Leonard were nothing more than a paper tiger, and the Lakers could win with just a little effort.

Brunson continued cross dribbling, mobilized Van Fleet's defense, and saw the right time to directly attack and rush to the basket.

VanVleet and Brunson are relatively similar types of players, both strong and low defenders.

Brunson broke through while engaging in fierce physical confrontation with Van Fleet.

The two came to the basket while fighting, and Brunson collected the ball and made a layup.

Gasol and Siakam on the side both wanted to step forward to help defend, but were blocked by McGee and George.

Bang——shua——

The basketball hit the backboard and bounced into the net.

2-0

Brunson made a direct hit at the beginning, which quite improved the morale of the Lakers.

The ball was transferred and it was the Raptors' turn to attack.

VanVleet came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Brunson's defense, he did not hit hard, but called his teammates to pick and roll.

With the help of Gasol's pick-and-roll, VanVleet directly shot a three-pointer.

This time Brunson failed to follow up in time, and VanVleet easily completed the shot.

Swah——

Three point hit.

2-3

At this time, Brunson and VanVleet were in a confrontation on the court. The two were facing each other, and sparks seemed to be jumping out of their eyes.

The ball was given to the Lakers again, and Brunson came to the frontcourt with the ball.

This time Brunson wanted to repeat his old trick, but Van Fleet predicted it in advance. The two had a physical confrontation, and Brunson returned to the three-point line.

Seeing that it was no longer possible, Brunson immediately passed the ball to Su Tian on the side.

Su Tian received the ball and faced Anunoby, while Brunson, after passing the ball, directly stepped forward to cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

Su Tian used the pick-and-roll to directly break through.

VanVleet and Anunoby both subconsciously pursued Su Tian. After Su Tian attracted the defense, he passed the ball to Brunson behind him.

Brunson caught the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

With the help of Su Tian's pass, Brunson directly hit a three-pointer.

Although with Su Tian's help, Brunson was able to return the three-pointer just now.

5-3

The ball was given to the Raptors again, and the competition between the two teams became more intense.

"I really didn't expect that the two teams would attract so much attention right from the start."

"VanVleet looks okay. No wonder the Raptors put him in the starting lineup."

"I just don't know if this is a blip or if it's normal."

"I think it's difficult. Brunson is heading towards an All-Star now, and VanVleet is still not there."

At this time, Van Fleet once again held the ball and came to the frontcourt. Facing Brunson's defense, he broke through to the basket with the help of a pick-and-roll.

After a physical confrontation between the two, Van Fleet was about to take a layup, but Brunson saw that he could not interfere.

At this moment, McGee's big hand suddenly appeared and slapped VanVleet's layup away.

“Beautiful! My big Mikey’s hotpot!!”

"Hahaha, I think VanVleet will be furious. He saw this ball was about to go in, but McGee blocked it!"

"I have to say that I, Mikey, am at a historical level from the neck down! Except for my brain, I am so good at everything else!!"

"Hopefully the Van Fleet guys are okay."

McGee's big shot immediately aroused cheers from the fans at the scene. The morale of the Lakers rose directly, completely overshadowing the Raptors.

Because the basketball was blocked by McGee, the Raptors could only organize their offense again.

This time after passing the ball, the basketball was given to Siakam, who took a three-pointer against George's defense.

boom--

Basketball strikes, Su Tianchong grabs the rebound, turns around and sprints straight to the start.

Anunobi wanted to intercept, but Su Tian made a light change of direction and directly bypassed the opponent's body, speeding up the field again.

After Su Tian came to the front basket, there was no one around him.

So Su Tian collected the ball and took off on the spot.

boom--

Successful one-handed chop!

Su Tian's dunk made the Lakers' morale rise again, and the fans at the scene were shouting crazily.
