The rise of the NBA superstar

Chapter 472, Super Lakers start.

Since Li Senlin announced to join the Los Angeles Lakers.

In the new season's national live broadcast list (including ABC, ESPN, TNT and NBA TV), the Lakers, Thunder, and Heat are the darlings of the league. The Lakers and Heat tied for the first place in the league in the number of national live broadcasts, each with 35 national live broadcasts.

The Thunder ranked second with 32 games televised across the United States.

The Lakers' opponent today, the Orlando Magic, has only 20 games.

2010 11 Month 15 Day.

The Lakers take on the Orlando Magic at Staples Center.

The Magic's current record is 7 wins and 2 losses, second only to the Bulls in the Eastern Conference.

The inside line is the magic's natural advantage. Howard is already recognized as the number one center in the league. Even if Yao Ming has returned, it may be difficult to shake his position!

The inside line of the Lakers will be severely tested in this game.

The Lakers also have 3 players who played in the Magic last season (Barnes, Carter, Lewis), so they have a good understanding of the Magic's tactical lineup and so on.

Pre-match tactical discussion.

The coaching staff has a huge problem.

In the arrangement of offensive tactics, Bread Brown is very puppet to implement the "one star four shots" and "super Lakers" tactics arranged by Jim Bass and Li Senlin.

But Brown is also a very defensive coach.

The Magic made a big deal a few days ago, leaving Lewis and Gortat for Turkoglu, Arenas and Jason Richardson.

Under this lineup, their outside strength has increased significantly.

It is difficult for the Lakers to defend the perimeter well.

Then they also have the league's first center with an average of 20+10 per game.

Brown said to the coaching staff at the meeting: "How do we limit Howard?"

Assistant coach Jack: "Try to double-team the smaller guys."

Brown: "Okay, double-team first."

at the same time.

There was laughter in the Lakers locker room.

The arrival of Carter and Lewis allowed other Lakers players to have a good life.

They were joking with Li Senlin brazenly.

Carter has always been very polite and has a very good attitude.

As soon as he arrived, he discovered that there was a big gap between the boss and the role players in the Lakers locker room, and immediately began to help Li Senlin get closer to other people.

Carter first said something to everyone: "Whether it is on the court or in the locker room, everyone should not be afraid to communicate with teammates. We must rely on each other. If whoever plays badly or chooses shots badly, Someone should take the initiative to speak out, OK?"

Then Carter turned around and said to Li Senlin: "Li, you should be a good leader, whether it is encouraging your teammates or being a good example, and you must also learn to respect your teammates!"

Li Senlin shrugged his shoulders, nodded and replied: "OK!"

Carter continued to everyone: "If Li plays badly, I will criticize him, but he is still our captain. He is still young. As a leader, he must understand that sometimes he is not ready alone. It’s ok, he’s just a part of the team, he’s going to make sure the whole team is going in the right direction, you don’t need to be afraid of him, we are only here with him and Kobe who can lead us to the championship, everyone must be tight Follow in his footsteps, including me."

"Ok!"

Barnes, Ebanks, Mbenga, Blake and other role players nodded one after another. Carter is so awesome.

No matter how stinky Li Senlin's face was, he wouldn't do anything to the two big brothers Carter and Lewis.

Driven by the two veterans, the Lakers' trash players didn't look so frightened at Li Senlin.

Carter acted as a good locker room lubricant, bringing Li Senlin closer to his teammates.

After a while, Li Senlin was lying on the massage table, Carter and Lewis sat on both sides of him, and the three of them were bragging.

Old Carter talked a lot, and kept pestering Li Senlin to chat: "Li, did you and Russell really have a falling out? Now the media is hyping up the relationship between the two of you, and they are quite portraying you as old enemies. mean."

Li Senlin said indifferently: "It's not a falling out, it's just that we lost contact."

The fact that Li Senlin left the Thunder to join the Lakers really hurt Westbrook.

Westbrook always thought that Li Senlin would stay if he won the championship. As a result, Li Senlin gave up his brother who had been fighting together for two years for the so-called "dream", which made Westbrook very unhappy.

Then the media in China and the United States continued to tease the relationship between the two, causing the two sides to have a cold war and losing face.

Before the arrival of December 12, the topic of who will win the Lakers and the Thunder has been discussed.

The Lakers are now 2 wins and 5 losses, ranking No. 11 in the West, while the Thunder have 6 wins and 1 loss, ranking second in the West.

The strength of the Thunder and Juniors exceeded the expectations of the media, and Harden also rose to show the potential of the All-Stars, which surprised everyone.

At this time, the media realized that the reason why the Thunder team was able to complete the miracle of the shocking comeback last year was that they had such sufficient confidence.

"This is a business alliance, I believe you can reconcile." Lewis, who was sitting on the side, interrupted.

After Lewis got the [-] million yuan contract, he was scolded so much that he completely saw the essence of this alliance.

"Ok, I know."

Li Senlin doesn't want to talk about this topic in depth. There will be a break between him and Westbrook sooner or later.

And Li Senlin was also quite curious about Teddy Howard: "Vince, how does Dwight deal with his relationship with those women?"

Carter smiled. He looked at Li Senlin and knew that this guy was in trouble with a woman: "Money, that guy's support fee is enough for him to drink a pot. Regardless of his high salary, he is very likely to go bankrupt after retiring."

Li Senlin smiled and said, "He's really simple and rough enough."

Carter: "Yes, but there are not many really good men in the NBA. In this regard, LeBron and Russell have done a good job. Now you have a good reputation in front of the media. Don't go wrong."

Li Senlin nodded: "That's not the case!"

Carter was a good chat partner.

Lin Weiwei and Lin Xiaolu's personalities and Li Senlin are very familiar with each other.

Even if Lin Xiaolu knew about Lin Weiwei's existence.

Lin Xiaolu would also choose to forbear, and then she would deal with Lin Weiwei by herself, without even letting Li Senlin know.

Lin Weiwei is even more calculating, so she doesn't mind that Li Senlin has a real girlfriend.

It is impossible for these two people to stage a bloody plot of two women fighting for husband in public, Li Senlin is not worried about this.

The game started quickly.

The Magic sent Dwight Howard, Jameer Nelson, Quentin Richardson, JJ Redick, and Brandon Bass in the first quarter.

The Lakers sent a lineup of Jordan Jr., Lewis, Carter, Danny Green, and Li Senlin.

The qualifications of Carter and Lewis determine that it is impossible for Barnes and Gerald Green to start with them.

Today's Lakers' lineup is clearly the same as the previous game, focusing on singles and three-pointers.

This Van Gundy arranged for the Magic to enter the finals is very similar.

But this star changed from Howard on the inside to Li Senlin on the outside.

Li Senlin's autonomous offensive ability now ranks first in the league, which can be seen from the number one scoring ranking.

In the first 7 games, Li Senlin averaged 37 points per game, 2 points higher than the No.5 Durant.

Van Gundy is very familiar with the Lakers' tactics and is extremely targeted.

So the Lakers were beaten by their opponents from the beginning of the game.

The Lakers' offense in the first quarter fell into a quagmire, with repeated mistakes and three-pointers. They only scored 12 points in 19 minutes. What's more, their defense was also vulnerable.

As soon as the Lakers double-teamed Howard, Howard split the ball, and then their outside line was completely opened. The Lakers let the crazy Magic score 38 points in the first quarter.

Trailing by 19 points in the first quarter, the Lakers' defeat seemed inevitable.

When everyone thought the Lakers would get better in the second quarter, the Lakers still lost 5 points in a single quarter.

At halftime, the Lakers trailed by 24 points.

Fans at Staples Center fell silent.
