Chapter 114

On October 31st, many teams in the NBA started their opening games.

In addition to the Blazers at home against the Lakers, there are 8 other games on this day.

The 2012-2013 NBA season officially kicked off.

Among them are a few notable games:

The New Orleans Hornets lost 95:99 at home to the Old Fox Spurs with a 4-point disadvantage.

No. 1 overall pick Anthony Davis made his career debut.

He scored a good number of 21 points and 7 rebounds. Unfortunately, the opposite Spurs had an old champion with 23 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks, helping the Spurs take the victory.

It can only be said that Anthony Davis still has a long way to go, the future is yours... not sure yet.

In another game, the Houston Rockets challenged the Detroit Pistons away.

The fascinating point of this game is how James Harden, who was traded from the Thunder, will perform in the Rockets.

He was sent to the Rockets by the Thunder on October 27, a few days before the start of the new season.

For Harden, who played a super sixth man performance last season, it is impossible to say that such a transaction does not make him sad.

Originally, he was looking forward to showing his ambitions with Westbrook and Durant in the new season. He participated in the Thunder's training camp and further improved himself in the summer.

As a result, when the rookie contract was not over and the next contract was not negotiated, the Thunder traded him.

In just a few days, before he even had time to get acquainted with the Rockets players and coaches, he put on a red jersey and started the new season.

In his first game of the new season, he scored 37 points, 12 assists, 6 rebounds and 4 steals in Detroit, leading the Rockets, the three-year lottery champion, to a victory.

After this game, fans of the Houston Rockets can rest assured that they have finally found their new leader.

In addition to these two games, players also showed their talents in other games.

In comparison, Li Liang's two performances were amazing enough, but not so bright that they overwhelmed others.

And there are only two games, the season has just started, and the sample size is too small.

Many rookie players played brilliantly at the beginning of the season. In the middle of the season, with fatigue, injuries, and targeted adjustments to the team, there will be ups and downs in their status.

This is the so-called rookie hit the wall.

Therefore, while the online media praised Bruce Li Yitong, there were also many calm voices pouring cold water on him.

"The means of attack are too single, and it is easy to be strangled."

"I can only shoot three-pointers, what should I do if I don't feel good?"

"I feel that fouling is a problem, and I must control my fouling."

"Other teams have not targeted him. It will be hard to say when he is thoroughly studied."

"The first two teams are not strong enough, let's see if we play against a strong team."

Anyway, no matter whether you play well or poorly, there are always those who support enthusiastically, those who watch with cold eyes, and those who are waiting to make trouble.

This is the norm in the public opinion circle.

Li Liang's attitude towards this is very positive:

You ignorant scumbags, mortals who don't know how powerful the system is, prepare to come out and be beaten in the future!

In order to maintain this mentality, on November 1st, when the whole team was on holiday, Li Liang still chose to train.

Several local media in Los Angeles called and invited Li Liang to participate in the local program.

Li Liang refused again.

It's not that he's shy, he's mainly afraid that after he's on the show, the system will blindly send him tasks.

Let him make some inappropriate remarks again, although it is good to complete it, but he still doesn't want to destroy his elegant and easy-going image.

Let's play well, and avoid troublesome things if you can.

Leveling is the kingly way.

On November 2, the third game of the new season, the same city derby, the Lakers played against the Clippers.

This is a major event at the beginning of the season, a nationally televised battle.

Originally, all parties wanted to see the duel between the old and new generations of super point guards between Steve Nash and Chris Paul.

It's a pity that Nash injured his knee and was sidelined for two weeks, so he lost this opportunity.

Mike Brown and the coaching staff decided after discussion to send Blake to the starting lineup.

At the same time, the management line of fire recalled Darius Morris, who had been transferred to the NBDL, to fill the guard vacancy caused by Nash's absence.

In fact, at the end of the last game, the lineup with Li Liang playing and Kobe playing point guard was quite good.

Because the Lakers use the twin towers inside, there are vacancies in positions 3 and 4.

The current Metta Shiping is too slow, and one person cannot bear such a big loophole.

Kobe is old, and he has played for so many years, and he has always been a master of fire fighting on the defensive end, not a universal glue.

Li Liang has the potential to become a super glue, and Brown feels in his heart that he seems to be a little dependent on this piece of super glue.

But as the head coach, he doesn't have that kind of authority in the Lakers.

There is no doubt that Bass doesn't like Li Liang.

After the first two games, Buss Jr. went to the players' locker room, but he and Li Liang ignored each other.

Little Buss would rather please Howard than give Li a good face.

The point is, Li Liang doesn't give him a good face either.

In any case, he is also the son of the boss, the future heir of the Lakers. Are you so awesome as a second-round pick?

Little Bass was still thinking that if Li Liang was soft-hearted and took the initiative to make friends with him, he would consider giving him a step down.

I didn't know that this guy was so bullish, he could chat and laugh with other people including Kobe, but he just ignored Bass.

He played really well in the first two games. Kupchak even said that if there is no Bruce Lee, he may lose the first two games.

Coupled with Nash's injury and Jamison's poor defense, it is impossible not to let him play.

This kid is still very arrogant. It is said that he "controlled" Mike Brown in the game, and he listened to Mike Brown whatever he said.

Dare to be serious with the referee, teach Kobe to play, and direct Nash to defend.

Where did this strange man fall from?

No matter how much Buss hated him, as a basketball worker for many years, he still had the most basic professionalism, and with the old Buss' instructions, he did not move Li Liang.

Therefore, the two of them will never communicate with each other. You play your ball, and I fight for mine.

On the night of November 2, the game between the Lakers and the Clippers started on time.

The two teams share an arena, and today they use the Lakers Logo floor.

Before the game, Kobe and Chris Paul shook hands, and the two chatted and laughed.

They had just teamed up to win gold for Team USA at the Olympics.

They had a chance to join forces with the Lakers, but fate tricked them.

Because of basketball, they missed out and were in the same city but not in the first team.

Li Liang was very disdainful of Kobe and Paul's chattering behavior before the game.

Are you going to play a game, and exchange feelings?

Lao Tzu came to test Paul's ball blindness index.

Li Liang found an opportunity, called out the [Ball Blind Detector], and aimed at Paul:

[The ball blindness index is 5.8%, and there is a big winning soul in a small body. If he is 5.8 inches taller, he will be the best player in the NBA. He is only a little bit away from the peak, how much is a little bit? It looks like 5.8. Many things in this world are often just a little bit worse. If there is no 5.8%, he will be a wise man who walked out of the prisoner's cave, the "ball blind king" described by Plato! But because of this 5.8%, he continued to stay in the prisoner's cave. He could feel the little light, but he couldn't leave! Because he is 5.8 short! 】

Li Liang almost spit out Gatorade, he really wanted to know, what is Paul's 5.8% difference?

Anyway, after the start of the game between the two sides, he really didn't think Paul was short of that 5.8%.

Li Liang sat off the court and watched too many games. He could tell if a player was smart or not after a few rounds.

Like Kobe, he is actually extremely smart in playing, and his control over the details is quite amazing.

It's just that he often makes choices that go against common sense, which is a typical example of knowing what to do.

This is exactly the charm of Kobe as a superstar.

In comparison, Paul is the opposite, and his choice is very reasonable.

In the face of multiple choices, he will always make the optimal solution.

Li Liang suddenly thought, maybe this is the 5.8% that Paul lacks?

The optimal solution may not necessarily bring the optimal result in many cases.

Life often rewards the courage to go forward more than the wisdom of precise calculation.

Li Liang sat on the bench and made himself a philosopher.

After half a quarter of the first quarter, the Clippers kept playing against the Lakers, maintaining a lead of about 5 points.

Blake was really in Chris Paul's hands.

Li Liang turned to look at Brown, Brown felt Li Liang's gaze, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry about Bruce, I'll let you play later!"

Very good, congratulations on your quick answer.
