Chapter 1401 Cosmic Bravery?Fuck us?
As the new season slowly approaches, many things have been heated up again, the biggest one of which is Durant joining the 73-win team.This is so saliva, ESPN even directly said that this is the Magic's O'Neal directly joining the Bulls.Don't tell me, with O'Neal's status back then, he may not necessarily be comparable to Durant.At that time, Oban had not founded the Lakers dynasty, nor had he had an MVP. In the original time and space, Durant had several scoring champions + MVPs, which was equal to the combination of two peak MVPs. The power of this can be imagined.

The latest ESPN player rankings are out, the tenth is Paul George, the ninth is James Harden, the eighth is Chris Paul, the seventh is Anthony Davis, and the sixth is La Serge Westbrook, fifth is Kawhi Leonard, fourth is Kevin Durant, third is Stephen Curry, second is LeBron James, first It's... Lakers Tang Qian.

This is Tang Qian's first time on ESPN's player rankings. Because of last year's crazy, 16-0 loss, plus the head-to-head finals defeating James' Cavaliers, including personal data is also invincible suppression, so, this The list basically belongs to ESPN and there is no way if it doesn't want to be ranked like this.Even if they like James again, there is no way to rank him first.This is also the first time in so many years that James has lost the top player rankings before the start of the season.

For this, the bleachers made it very clear, the headline is, NO.1, a new era is coming.

The five point guards are Curry, Paul, Westbrook, Wall, and Lowry. Irving unfortunately lost the selection, which also made Irving feel uncomfortable.

The five shooting guards are Harden, Thompson, DeRozan, Bradley Beal, and Wade.

The five big and small forwards are James, Durant, Leonard, George, and Anthony.

The five major forwards are Davis, Love, Green, Griffin, and Millsap.

The five major centers are Tang Qian, Cousins, Andre Drummond, Towns, and Howard.

Howard is now barely at the bottom. If he can't produce satisfactory results this season, it is estimated that next season, he will completely leave the ranks of the top five centers in the league.Even now, he is more on his laurels.There is nothing surprising about Tang Qian, because this list reached the top last year. What made him feel a lot of accomplishment this year was that he let ESPN bow his head and had to admit his No.1 position in the league.

So far, Tang Qian's No.1 position in the world has been publicly recognized, but whether he can sit still, whether he can sit still, remains to be seen.As the preseason approached, the pre-game training camp at the beginning of the game also started. After everyone got together, everyone suddenly discovered that the boss of the Lakers, this No. 29, is so... strong again! ! !

No. 29, who was already very strong, now looks even more scary. His body is simply a typical American and European giant.People were taken aback.Tang Qian's tonnage has now increased to 323.9 pounds. According to his own opinion, it is not the final figure yet, because it will be half a month away, and he will continue to increase until it stabilizes at around 325 pounds.

After all, Dashuai Zhang reached the peak of 327 pounds that year, so he should have no problem.

Rely on... 325 pounds, and still maintain the energy of exercise, you, you are afraid that you will go to heaven, right? ? ?

Moreover, Tang Qian's strength has also been improved accordingly, as has his physical fitness. To the surprise of coach Larry Brown, this Eastern center has even begun to use hooks very smoothly.It seems that the left hand is also trying to make a shot.This guy is really... amazing.

This kind of aggressiveness and motivation made Larry Brown put an end to his worries. He was afraid that Tang Qian would be complacent and gradually become arrogant and lawless.As a result, people don't think a championship is a thing at all.Tang Qian said in front of everyone: This season, what we have to do is still to win the championship, and we don't have to think about the rest.

I know everyone feels a little nervous when they hear that Durant joined the 73-win team, but it doesn't matter, because...it doesn't matter to anyone, we just want to win.And I don't think they are really invincible if they get Durant. They haven't played yet, so it's hard to say.From what I can see, their insiders are pretty scumbags.

Everyone smiled slightly, because Tang Qian is indeed qualified to say this, let alone the Warriors, how many of the insiders of any team can face the Lakers without suffering?To be able to have an equal share with No. 29 is to beg grandpa to sue grandma, thank God.Under normal circumstances, it is nothing more than to see the extent of abuse.

Larry Brown also nodded and said: That's it. This season, we are the defending champions. We created the myth of being undefeated in the playoffs. The Warriors are very strong, but we have to play to know.There is no need to be afraid.

All the new players come to get to know each other, and after the acquaintance, everyone comes to get in touch, and strive to start from the preseason, and we will have the determination to defend the championship.

The salary of the Lakers this season is not tight, and they have swallowed a few newcomers, but the contracts are not too big. If they don't sign them, they will almost miss the poor line.This is really not to tease you, the total salary of these people who signed the contract is only a little over 1 million.Seems like a lot, but don't forget, this is the first season of the contract explosion, how much has the salary cap been raised?So it's not much at all.There is no need to pay the luxury tax. This is something the Lakers have done for so many seasons to make other bosses jealous.After all, the luxury tax has also been changed now, and the more you pay, you look at the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers started from the 14-15 season and paid 7000 million dollars in luxury tax in the first season, and paid 15 million dollars in the 16-5400 season. , Even if the salary cap rises sharply this season, they will have to pay a luxury tax of more than 3000 million.This is really proud.

In the past 3 years, the Cavaliers alone have to pay more than 1.5 million in taxes, so this is the saying that if you want to win the championship, you must pay taxes.But what about the Lakers?Actually... not here?I have signed several contracts in a row, and there is still a shortfall. Why not make other bosses jealous.These are all real gold and silver.

The funniest thing is that after the original time and space James chose to leave the Cavaliers, he actually... did you know that the Cavaliers still have to pay the luxury tax.This is funny enough.So, Irving wanted to leave in the original time and space, not only to get out of the shadow of James, but also to avoid the feathers of the Cavaliers.

The game day is advancing, and some players have integrated quickly, such as Gasol, who originally wanted to play at a slow pace, but now the Lakers are, so he is naturally very comfortable.Look at his data in the Bulls, a slow-paced team last season, almost 17+11+4+2 strong data, except for the basic inside data of 17+11, there are 2 basket-protecting blocks, 4 times Assists per game are priceless.After Gasol entered the bench lineup, the bench lineup has increased a lot in terms of offense and defense and organizational strength.Gasol is also very happy to play a slow pace, saying that he did not return to the error this time.

Don't forget, last year's Gasol was a genuine All-Star player. 17+11+4+2 is definitely strong enough and versatile. He is now playing as a substitute for the Lakers. Think about it.Come on, this improvement is substantial.It's just that Gasol is not that famous, and with his age, everyone has forgotten it symbolically.It is far less exaggerated and violent than Durant going to the Warriors.

The most important thing is that this offseason, Mrs. Jia really... developed a three-pointer! ! !
Although it's hard to say what is a strong top shot, but the accuracy of wide open shots is really refreshing.

In fact, Gasol had already tried to develop three-pointers in his first season with the Bulls. He didn't take many shots that season, averaging only 0.3 times per game, but his shooting percentage exceeded 46.2%.But after all, the base is too small to explain anything. Next season, the number of shots will directly increase to an average of 1+ per game.The hit rate is also about 35%.This season, he is more accurate and shoots more. Yuan Shikong went to the Spurs and averaged more than 1.6 three-pointers per game. This is only 20+ minutes of data. If it is calculated in standard 36 minutes, Averaged close to 2.5 three-pointers per game.

Guess the hit rate...not high, just 53.8%.

How much is your sister?Yes! ! !

Moreover, the original time and space Gasol has stabilized the three-pointer in the next few years, which shows that it is not accidental, this is very powerful.How to say that sentence, by the way, dumplings are better than dumplings, and more fun than... sister-in-law.It's great, sister-in-law, I give you a thumbs up.In this way, the Lakers can have one more outside shooting point.

In addition to Butler, after a whole season of three-pointers last season, he finally remembered Tang Qian's entrustment, and started to practice a lot of long-range three-pointers during the offseason. No, finally The basket is back.It's also a place where the Lakers can breathe a sigh of relief.Last season, Butler was inaccurate in three-pointers, but he was deliberately targeted by others. Fortunately, the rest of the playoffs went berserk, such as Josh Smith, so this problem was not too obvious.

This season, this problem is finally not a problem.

Let's see who dares to let go of Butler.

Tang Qian's inside space can also be further liberated.

Kill two birds with one stone.

And when Tang Qian used The.Finger-Roll, that is, picking the basket sideways, and the overlord picking the tackle, the audience was surprised. This, this guy, how will this guy defend in the future.Offensive skills are more varied.It's not the kind of accident that directly turned this offensive technique into a conventional weapon.Sure enough, people are more popular than people!Is he now the flow of physical violence and the flow of insider technology?In this case, it is estimated that none of the 5th positions in this alliance will not suffer.

Forget it, the Lakers No. 29 also used an extremely stable right-handed hook from time to time, not only the low-post hits before, but now he can sacrifice it from all angles and in various confrontations. Lethality, go one step further.

Gasol was directly slaughtered by Tang Qian in this game. I don't know how many points he scored, but Gasol was about to vomit anyway.

Come on, hot, I was an All-Star insider last season, averaged 2+ blocks per game, okay, you are so... really don't give me face at all.

It's too fierce. It's completely useless to directly rely on the weight to stabilize the chassis like last season, because now when you do this, Tang Qian will suddenly come up with a The.Finger-Roll or suddenly come up with a right-hand hook. It is impossible to defend against ordinary defense like this.Therefore, even if there is no reinforcement this year, the strength of the Lakers has actually improved linearly.

In this way, everyone's confidence is more sufficient.

Warriors, we're afraid of you.

When the Lakers were conducting their internal pre-match training camp, it was naturally not the Zijin Army that was most discussed by the outside world, but the Warriors team known as the "Cosmic Braves".How to beat the Warriors? ? ?This has become the most discussed topic in basketball circles now.Including American newspapers and major TV programs, there are now such information rolling. ESPN also seems to be excited about the establishment of "Cosmic Bravery", because in this way, the Lakers will not be able to dominate alone, and it seems difficult to defend the title on the books.

When the Lakers are eliminated, they will inevitably counterattack.

The TNT Tiantuan program also analyzed a wave, and felt that the most capable way to defend this lineup is to have unlimited defenses.It's just that now that Barnes has been replaced by Durant, the five small lineup has become a real death five small, can it still work?The addition of this kind of star is not a simple one plus one problem. Durant is simply the candidate that the Warriors need most now.

When tactics fail to execute, you can ignore any defensive dead-ball attackers.

This is why ESPN is now shouting that the Warriors have no shortcomings.On paper it does look scary.

Kenny Smith and Barkley have the same point of view. They believe that if they want to defeat this "cosmic warriors", they can only work hard on the inside, because the Warriors also sacrificed Bogut at the same time. Their inside strength is actually greatly improved. falling.How to keep the Warriors away from the perimeter in this situation?How to increase the rounds of inside confrontation is the key point.

Reggie Miller's point of view is that he needs a big man who can take care of both inside and outside, can go out on the defensive end, and can keep up with sports warfare. Such a player can cause a lot of trouble for the Warriors.Both the Lakers and the Bucks have caused a lot of trouble for the Warriors last season.Of course, the Warriors are stronger this season, so we still need to look again.

O'Neill said: The inside line, or the inside line, only needs a strong inside line to handle everything.like me.

As he spoke, he waved his fat arms, looking a little funny.

On the Internet, there are countless replies from God:
He has the backbone to die.The season is over early, so let's just go through the motions.What self-hypnosis The Warriors are not strong... Anyway, it makes people laugh and cry.However, one thing is certain, that is, the vast majority of fans now actually think that the Warriors are the strongest in the league.Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to say such funny words.

Although it is a remark, but if you taste it carefully, you will find that it is actually "looking down" in nature.

Look down on the entire league.

Big Three?What is the era of the Big Three, now it is okay to go directly to the Big Four.

Some people also say that this is another node event in the Baotuan era. After that, it may really enter the era of crazy Baotuan.

Even the Lakers, no one is optimistic.The latest 30-team power list can also illustrate this problem.The Golden State Warriors are firmly in first place.The Warriors' first preseason game was also quite impressive. They beat the Eastern powerhouse Raptors at halftime and went directly to garbage time.It's the feeling that... you're falling before we're even able to exert our strength.Yes, just such a feeling.It's amazing how strong the Warriors are here.

The first preseason game of the Lakers was against the Sacramento Kings. Before the game, as the defending champion and now recognized as No.1 in the league, most of the Lakers could not escape the siege and interviews of reporters, and neither did Tang Qian. Vaguely, said directly:
The Warriors are very strong, and I congratulate them for getting Durant, but our Lakers have only one goal and task this season, to defend the title.The rest is none of our business.It is not within the scope of our consideration.

What?Do you think the Warriors are stronger?Okay, see you then, remember what you said.

In June of this year, let's see who is standing on the top of the West, you can remember it for me.

Four-star warrior?Fuck us!
