At his peak, Dwight Howard was the only player in the league who could replace Lebron James alone. At that time, Howard averaged 20+14 per game. The small lineup that is prevalent in the league today is evolved from the Magic's one-star four-shot strategy. Howard is the absolute core of that team, and the tactics revolve around him.

Last season with the Atlanta Hawks, Howard failed to prove himself, but he still averaged 13.5 points and 12.7 rebounds per game in a double-double.

Howard joined the Cavaliers, they have been strengthened inside, and they can completely put up an All-Star starting lineup --- Kyrie Irving, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Kevin Love And Dwight Howard.

After the Golden State Warriors, the league reproduced the second five-star team. Although the Cleveland Cavaliers' All-Star starting lineup is much worse than that of the Golden State Warriors. Because in their formation, there are two players who were once All-Star players and are now past their prime.

The completion of the Cleveland Cavaliers deal has attracted a lot of heated discussions.

"Knight, you can do it. The Big Three can't beat Ye Fei, so let's form the Big Five. On the bench, there is Derrick Rose. Why don't you go up?"

"Recruit Wade, 23 James, you say you want to play brother basketball, I can accept it. Although you James is well-known in the league and you have a good relationship with everyone, Howard is not your brother, right? Just so frantically Want to form a five-star lineup?"

"Except for the small forward position, all positions have been strengthened. Cleveland Cavaliers are so ruthless, so you want a championship?"

"James, what kind of brother basketball is yours? Do you want to hug your brother's thigh? Look at me, Ye Shen, Brother Lian and Anthony are his big brothers. Take them to win a championship together. Please note that it is Ye Fei who leads you. Do you want my brother to take you to win the championship?"

"Wade joins the Cavaliers. I'm looking forward to your Janeway connection, but now I feel that the Cleveland Cavaliers' reinforcement deal is a little disgusting. Are you going to target me like that?"

"God Ye wants Anthony to come and play brother basketball, James, you want three? Cavaliers, you guys can really do it."

"Next season's All-Star-level free agents will form a five-star lineup and directly announce the NBA finale. Is the game still interesting?"

Even in the 1990s, Jordan ruled the entire NBA league, and there are still stars who can compete with them. And they won't stick together like they are today. If they want to win the championship, dual-core is the safety bolt. It is impossible for one player to perform so well throughout the season. Jordan and Kobe will have poor performance nights, and with the impact of injuries, a team with two core players is still acceptable.

But like the Cleveland Cavaliers in the East and the Golden State Warriors in the West, the five positions are all All-Star players.

Do other teams in the league play supporting roles? How good are they?

And the fans know very well that the Cleveland Cavaliers are coming for the Los Angeles Lakers by spending a lot of money to strengthen.

Although the Los Angeles Lakers made a lot of trades during the offseason, when the preseason started, the overall strength of the Los Angeles Lakers' 15-man roster did not improve much. Their lineup was still dominated by young players.

Point guards: Rajon Rondo, Josh Hart, Jordan Clarkson

Shooting guards: Ye Fei, Alex Caruso

Small forwards: Carmelo Anthony, Brandon Ingram, Kyle Kuzma

Power forwards: Luen, PJ Tucker, Corey Brewer

Centers: Larry Nance, Ivica Zubac, Thomas Bryant, Channing Frye

The Los Angeles Lakers' 15-point roster has eight players with less than three years of NBA experience. Except for Ye Fei and Anthony, the strength of the rest of the players is not that special.

Although compared to last year's lineup, there is one more Anthony as the core of the team. However, Nick Young, Lu Wei and others will leave immediately, and it is not known whether the overall strength of the Los Angeles Lakers will rise or fall.

Ye Fei said it doesn't matter.

As long as he is in the Los Angeles Lakers, other teams will have no chance of winning the championship.

The Los Angeles Lakers started their preseason tour with this lineup.

In the previous few preseason games, Ye Fei didn't play, and their teammates played a wave of four consecutive losses.

The team has been running in for a while, but without Ye Fei, the Los Angeles Lakers are still not stable enough.

A first-year rookie like Kyle Kuzma played well in the summer league, but hit the rookie wall on the NBA preseason stage.

Brandon Ingram was very active in training during the offseason, but it seems that the improvement effect is not obvious. Although Larry Nance had the opportunity to start last season, this season he has to be stationed on the inside alone, and his role is heavier. He is still a little uncomfortable.

Veterans such as Carmelo Anthony and Rajon Rondo came here to find the feeling of the game in the preseason. They will not play too seriously, but give young people opportunities and help guide them.

A four-game losing streak is still a bad start.

In the fifth game against the Sacramento Kings, Ye Fei finally played and played only one and a half quarters, leading the Los Angeles Lakers to easily defeat their opponents and usher in their first preseason victory.

In this game, the domestic 493 fans were the happiest, returning to the NBA stage. Although Liange had bright spots in the previous games, the statistics were not very good.

In the first game of Ye Fei's return to the game, Lian Ge immediately rejuvenated his second spring, scoring 14 points and 5 rebounds, and finally scored in double figures.

Lian Ge scored three goals in dunks after receiving a pass from Ye Fei alone.

The two have a good chemical reaction and cooperate with each other tacitly. Domestic fans have a little more expectation for next year's World Championships.

However, in the last game of the preseason, the Los Angeles Lakers lost again.

Many Lakers fans couldn't sit still.

"I feel like the Lakers players, if they don't see Ye Fei on the court, they won't play."

"There are many parallel imports in the second place. Ingram has been trained for two years, and he has played at this level. He is worse than Kuzma. Let's trade away."

"Although the preseason games can't explain any problems, but looking at the performance of the Lakers players on the court, I feel that this year's championship is a bit hanging.

"I beg the owners of the Lakers, spend some money to bring some All-Star teammates to Ye Fei. Everyone else has five All-Stars. How can Ye Fei win the championship with a group of younger brothers?"

"Anthony, PJ Tucker and Lian Ge played pretty well. As for other players, watching them play, I can eat more bowls of rice."

"Please, can you reinforce some players? I feel like I have nothing to do with the Cavaliers in the opening game."
