NBA Old Age Star System

After the game against the Pelicans, thick eyebrows naturally became the focus of reporters' interviews.

"Is there any special feeling when Davis comes here to play against the Pelicans for the first time?"

The thick eyebrow thought for a while, picked up the phone and said: "Is it a special feeling? Yes, this is indeed a wonderful experience. Everything here is so familiar to me, but it has nothing to do with me. This does require a period of time." Time to adapt.”

"But the fans here are still very enthusiastic, and I even saw fans wearing my old jersey."

Another reporter stood up and asked: "So, do you have any suggestions or opinions for these new players in the Pelicans?"

"There is no doubt that they are all very good players. They have excellent talents and they have a bright future. As for suggestions, I hope they can focus on the game and the field, work hard to improve themselves, and not be disturbed by some voices outside the field. arrive."

The advice given by Thick Eyebrow is still very pertinent and very appropriate.

Because the current core players of the Pelicans are still relatively young and are easily influenced by the outside world.

The interview ended quickly, and the local New Orleans reporter did not give Davis too much trouble.

After the game against the Pelicans, the Lakers ended their four-game road trip and returned to Los Angeles the next day.

After the game against the Pelicans, Nongmei was obviously in a better mental state. He seemed to have let go of some baggage and showed a more positive attitude in the team's training matches.

Seeing the change in the condition of the thick eyebrows, Su Tian was even more relieved. The Lakers want to defend their title this season, and thick eyebrows are an important part of it. They should try not to cause problems with the thick eyebrows.

On November 11, the Lakers faced the Washington Wizards at home.

The Wizards also made some deals during the offseason. The original team boss, John Wall, was reimbursed for the season due to an injury to his left Achilles tendon and directly became an assistant coach for the Wizards.

So the team's first scoring point became Bradley Beal, and Thomas Jr. was signed as a supplement at the point guard position.

The Lakers have all their main players, and the Wizards will naturally not be the Lakers' opponents.

In only halftime, the score reached 70-49, a 21-point difference.

So, after the main team played for half of the third quarter, Walton began to train on the bench.

The Wizards wanted to take the opportunity to chase points, but unfortunately, because the point difference was too big, the point difference was still maintained at 20 points at the end of the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Su Tian came on the bench with a substitute lineup. After a wave of play to widen the point difference, he was replaced again.

At this time, Wizards head coach Brooks also saw clearly. He took down the main lineup, replaced it with the substitute lineup, and surrendered directly.

In the end, the game ended uneventfully. The Lakers won the game 125-103. There were no surprises in the result of the game.

As the team's first scoring point, Bill only scored 18 points, 9 assists and 3 rebounds. From this, we can also see how constipated the Wizards' offense is.

At this point, the Lakers' games in November are over, and their record has reached 11 wins and 18 loss.

The day after the game against the Wizards, Aunt Jenny took the lead in organizing a small gathering of team members.

Including all players, head coach, Pelinka, Johnson.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of this gathering, various groups within the Lakers team deepened their emotional exchanges and laid the foundation for future cooperation.

Su Tian is naturally one of the focuses of attention. After all, Su Tian is now the guarantee of the Lakers' performance.

"Erwin, how are you lately? Why do I feel like I rarely see you?" Su Tian came to Johnson's side and asked softly.

"Hey Su, I have less work on my hands recently, so I go to work less. How are you lately?" Johnson said with a smile.

"Me? I'm not bad, but aren't you the team's president of basketball operations? Why do you have less work? The team is so popular recently, so it must be quite busy."

"Hahaha, the team is very busy, but they don't really need me. Pelinka can handle it all by himself."

Su Tian frowned when he heard this. Su Tian heard a hint of sadness and resentment from Johnson's words.

It's not that Su Tian didn't know about the factional dispute between Johnson and Pelinka, but he just didn't expect Johnson to lose so quickly.

In fact, these have no impact on Su Tian, ​​because even if Pelinka takes the lead, he still has to win over himself and respect his own opinions.

It's just that Su Tian is more familiar with Johnson and works better with Johnson.

Or to put it bluntly, Johnson basically supported Su Tian's decision unconditionally, whether it was in the draft or signing some role players.

Even now, Johnson still controls this part of the power, just to better cooperate with Su Tian.

The party ended quickly. Overall, the party was a success and everyone got closer.

The day after the party, the Lakers conducted team training as normal, and Su Tian could clearly feel that the tacit understanding among the team members had improved a lot.

"It seems that moderate gatherings are still necessary."

On December 12, the Lakers faced the Mavericks at home.

After the tacit understanding has increased, the Lakers have significantly improved their combat effectiveness. When fighting the Mavericks, they are always able to produce some wonderful coordination.

Maybe we all have these abilities, but we just lack an opportunity.

Now that the opportunity has arrived, everyone has used all their abilities.

After halftime, the Lakers' lead reached 17 points.

To be honest, Doncic's performance is not bad, but the Lakers' overall strength is too strong, whether it is offense or defense, it is not comparable to the Mavericks.

The second half was basically a replica of the first half. With the overall cooperation of the Lakers, the Mavericks had no chance to turn around.

In the end, the Lakers won the game 124-99.

The Lakers team has a total of 38 assists, and the overall smoothness and tacit understanding of cooperation are evident.

After firmly winning the Mavericks, the Lakers once again started the continuous away game mode.

On December 12, the Lakers played away against the Denver Nuggets.

Nongmei and McGee worked together to restrict Jokic, but they only restricted it and did not completely block it.

Su Tian saw clearly from the sidelines that a few years ago, Jokic was not such a big threat, but now the threat is getting bigger and bigger. The Lakers need two people to restrain Jokic.

Although it is a little difficult on the inside, it still has great advantages on the back line and forward line.

In the end, the Lakers also relied on their advantages on the back and forward lines to win the Nuggets.

105-96, the score was almost the same, and the two teams also fought until the final stage of the fourth quarter.

Then, on December 12, the Lakers played back-to-back away games against the Jazz.

To be on the safe side, Walton rested his thick eyebrows and played the rest as normal.

However, even if the thick eyebrows were rested, the Lakers' advantage was still very obvious, because Mitchell, the Jazz's first scoring point, happened to be facing off against Su Tian, ​​and was controlled by Su Tian.

It's just that after the rest, the inside line is a little bit difficult, and the playing time of Cousins ​​​​and Boucher will increase.

Fortunately, Jazz insider Gobert is only good at defense, not offense.

最终爵士也被湖人轻松拿下，苏天全场拿到了39分11助攻10篮板3抢断的三双数据，三分球10中6，比赛在第四节过半的时候彻底结束。

Mitchell received special attention from Su Tian throughout the game. He only scored 17 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds, with a shooting percentage of less than [-]%.

After the game against the Jazz, the Lakers rushed to Portland to play against the Trail Blazers.This game was also the last of the Lakers' three consecutive games, so Walton directly arranged for Su Tian to rest.

Although the Trail Blazers are also quite strong, Walton seems quite confident.

So Su Tian had no choice but to put on casual clothes and sit on the bench with the team.

Before the game started, Lillard came to Su Tian's side.

"Su, don't think that I will show mercy if you don't play in this game."

Lillard is also a very proud person with his own persistence.

"Damian, don't be happy so early. Don't think that I won't play. The Lakers are so easy to deal with." Su Tian responded with a smile.

"If I don't play and you can't beat me, you'll be in trouble."

Looking at Su Tian's playful expression, Lillard knew that Su Tian was very confident about the Lakers, but who doesn't have confidence anymore?
Soon the game started, and the Lakers got the right to attack first. Brunson came to the frontcourt with the ball. He was not afraid of Lillard's defense and broke through directly with the help of his teammates' pick-and-roll.

Brunson's impact was also very strong, rushing all the way to the basket. Lillard tried to intercept but failed.

Hassan Whiteside under the basket was immediately ready to block shots, hoping to get this block number.

But when Brunson collected the ball and was about to take action, Brunson turned his wrist and passed the ball to George on the side.

George caught the ball and made a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Hit a three-pointer steadily.

Hood, who is responsible for defending George, cannot provide much effective interference to George at all.

The ball is switched, and the Blazers attack.

At this time, Lillard's expression also became serious. After all, Lillard also had a lot of responsibility for the goal just now.

After Lillard came to the frontcourt with the ball, he directly called his teammates to step forward to pick and roll.

Brunson saw the pick-and-roll forming and hurriedly turned around to bypass the pick-and-roll, but unexpectedly Lillard shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

Lillard made a steady three-pointer.

3-3
Lillard responded to the goal just now.

In the next few rounds, the two teams went back and forth, but overall it was still felt that the Lakers had the advantage.

At the end of the first half, the score came to 74-62, and the Lakers led by 12 points.

At this time, everything was going on very normally, and even Su Tian himself didn't notice anything different or unexpected.

In the third quarter, Lillard led the Trail Blazers to start chasing points. Although the effect was not significant, they also chased the point difference to single digits by 9 points.

In the fourth quarter, Lillard played again. When Lillard hit three consecutive points again, Su Tian felt something was wrong.

When Lillard hit another three-pointer, the score difference came to 2 points. Su Tian immediately stood up and reminded Walton to call a timeout.

"Su, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, don't worry, relax and leave it to your teammates." Wharton comforted Su Tian.

After being comforted, Walton began to arrange corresponding tactics and gave George the task of defending Lillard.

Wharton's tactics had just been set up, the timeout ended and the game started again.

When Su Tian was listening to tactics and arrangements on the bench, he didn't feel anything was wrong.

But after the game started, seeing George standing in front of Lillard, Su Tian shouted that it was over.

"It's over, George defends Lillard with great touch, isn't this a reappearance of a famous scene!"

As a famous backdrop in NBA history, George's status is second only to Gorilla Ewing.

Of course, this was the original evaluation of George in history. In this life, because George joined the Lakers and won the championship, there has been a lot less discussion in this regard.

Because the Lakers' critical moments are all handed over to Su Tian.

But now that Su Tian is not on the court, George has naturally become Walton's most trusted player.

When George first faced Lillard, these rounds were very good and the defensive effect was very good.

But Lillard also began to change his thinking and began to use his offensive threat to pass the ball to his teammates, passing the ball continuously to assist.

Just one minute before the end of the game, as Lillard made two free throws, the two teams tied the score.

"The Blazers' resilience is really good, or in other words, Lillard's resilience is good," Barkley said.

"Yes, it seems that the Lakers still can't live without Su. Without Su, it feels like no one is so reliable." Kenny Smith said.

Walton saw the score tied and called a timeout, which was also the Lakers' last timeout.

After the timeout, the two sides took the field again. There is no doubt that George is still responsible for defending Lillard.

Although Su Tian deliberately wanted to remind him, but after thinking about it, no matter what he said, it was a bit illogical.

"Hey, forget it, life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor. Maybe this is the fate of George."

In the end, Su Tian decided not to say anything. After all, this kind of thing was too fantasy.

Or maybe George can succeed?
The game started again. After the game started again, the two sides fell directly into a state of anxiety, clinging to the score.

The scores kept rising alternately until the last attack, when the Trail Blazers had the ball and the Lakers led by 1 point.

Lillard holds the ball, facing George's defense, and alternately dribbles left and right to mobilize George's defensive focus.

Seeing this scene, Su Tian stood up nervously, because Su Tian had seen this scene before.

Lillard dribbled the ball while looking at the timer on the rim.

Watching the time pass by one by one, when the time was about to end, Lillard took a step back. At this time, he was already two steps away from the three-point line and took a direct three-point shot.

The basketball flew into the air, the buzzer sounded at the end of the game, and the red light on the backboard lit up.

boom--

The basketball hit the backboard and everyone was in high spirits.

Swah——

The basketball bounces into the net.

“Dip—three points are valid!”

At this time, Lillard raised his left hand, patted his left wrist with his right hand, and made a gesture of looking at the watch. (End of chapter)
