221: The defensive strategy is beginning to show its magic, it’s time for dawn in Los Angeles!

November 14th, the Lakers’ seventh game of the new season.

vs. the Sacramento Kings at home.

This California Derby was not broadcast live nationally at first, but now the Lakers' gimmick is really enough.

Therefore, NBC temporarily changed it to a live broadcast of all ugly games.

All NBA fans want to know whether the Lakers can win.

Everyone wants to know how Mr. Shay, who is worth 30 million, will make a comeback.

Of course, more people actually came to see Shay make a comeback than a comeback.

As the overlord in the past, the Lakers really made too many fans in other places hate them to the core.

Everyone said that they were beaten to death by Shay and the Lakers back then, and now they must also want to experience the feeling of being beaten to pieces by the Lakers.

"This season, the Lakers are off to an extremely bad start.

Their efficiency on both offense and defense has dropped significantly, and there are fewer "showtime" quick counterattacks.

As the oldest team in the league, it may be really difficult for the Lakers to regain their former glory.

I think Lakers fans must accept the fact that the Lakers' peak is over!"

At the scene, Bill Walton was still not optimistic about the Lakers.

Walton is not a fan of Shea, but based on objective facts, the Lakers' winning rate is not high.

The Kings started the season with 5 wins and 1 loss. When facing the powerful Pacers in the Eastern Conference, the Kings limited the opponent's overall shooting percentage to only 35.6%!

It would be too much to say that the Kings are a championship contending team, but this Kings is undoubtedly a team with strong combat effectiveness.

It is indeed difficult for the Lakers, who are still in the running-in period, to defeat such an opponent!

On the court, Lakers fans were shouting Shay's name.

The magician who was commentating on the scene was also extremely nervous. He really didn't want to see the team lose again.

Some fans from other places also came to the scene.

They sat in the front row and held up signs mocking Shay:

"The most highly paid and incompetent player in history."

"Shay defrauded the Lakers out of 30 million!"

"After today, the Lakers start 2-5!"

Shea was very pleased to see these fans who had traveled thousands of miles to Los Angeles to watch him lose.

So many people are willing to fly all over the country and fly thousands of miles for me. Am I already so charming?

The game is about to begin, and both teams have their starting lineups in place.

After adjustments in several games, today's starting lineup for the Lakers is Shea, Lowry, Finley, Robinson and Ewing.

On the King's side, there are Tyus Edney, Richmond, Walter Williams, Brian Grant and Alden Polynice.

The King's lineup is not luxurious, but it is very balanced. Everyone performs their duties and everyone contributes selflessly.

Except for Richmond, the entire team's starting shots and scoring data are not much different.

This is a united team that can blossom more!

Finlay took a deep breath before the start of the game and seemed a little nervous.

Today, Carlisle really arranged for him to defend Richmond.

Carlisle also knew very well that he had to put Finley through the paces during the regular season.

It's better to be beaten now than to be beaten again in the playoffs!

The referee blows the whistle and the game begins!

Ewing won the ball first, and the Lakers no longer pursue playing fast this season, because most people can no longer keep up with that fast pace.

The Lakers set up their offensive posture, with Finley, Curry and Robinson stretching out from beyond the three-point line, while Shea and Ewing, one inside and one outside, waited for opportunities to play in singles.

Shea did not give the ball to Ewing because Ewing's current offensive state is very average, averaging only 14.6 points per game in the first six games, and his shooting percentage was almost over 50%.

After all, Gorilla hasn't played a formal game for more than a year, and even Jordan has to spend time finding his form.

Moreover, due to injuries, Gorilla has been unable to gain weight, which has further affected his ability to attack in the low post.

And because the feeling of exerting force is different after the cruciate ligament is torn, Ewing also needs to rediscover the feeling for technical finishing.

Therefore, now the Lakers are seemingly dual-core inside and outside.

It's actually 1.5 cores.

Ewing? Just 0.5.

The Kings' guard against Shea is the team's second-best player, Walter Williams. This tough small forward averaged 1.6 steals per game last season.

The perimeter defensive chain he and Richmond built is simply a nightmare for countless teams.

The outstanding performance last season also made Walter Williams expand.

I feel like I'm qualified enough to talk trash to Shay.

"Come on Shay, you are just a venomous snake with your teeth pulled out, you are no longer a threat!

You were able to beat us in the playoffs last season, but now, you are the prey!"

Shay didn't tangle with Williams for too long, and didn't even have the desire to exchange trash talk with him.

What a rotten fish and shrimp, why should I care about you?

With two "pops", Shay passed by Williams with a quick change of direction in front of his body.

Halfway through, Xie Yi paused urgently.

Walter Williams immediately raised his focus, thinking that Shay was going to make a pull-up jumper.

In the past two games, Shea has proven that he is stable in the mid-range.

This season, no one dares to take Shay's mid-range shots casually!

But just as Walter Williams raised his center of gravity to interfere with the shot, Shea accelerated again, allowing him to directly get rid of the opponent!

Therefore, when the mid-range shooting attributes are added up, it is not just as simple as an accurate mid-range shooting.

Accurate mid-range shots can, in turn, make breakthroughs easier!

Last season, if Shea paused for a shot like the one just made in the mid-range, the defender would never raise his center of gravity to save the shot.

If Shay wants to continue passing people, he must either rely on physical collision or make another change of direction.

But now there is no need to go to such trouble. Shay only needs to move and suddenly pause like this, and then plunge deep like this! He will make the other party unbearable!

Walter Williams thought his defense was flawless, but he was still shocked by Shay.

Shea broke into the paint, and the Kings' extremely fast and thin center Polynis came up to help defend. At the same time, Williams immediately chased to Shea's side.

In order to catch up with Shay, Williams was already chasing at full speed.

At this time, Shea was fully capable of scoring the ball with a beautiful lever action in the double crowd.

Or change it into a pass and pass the ball to Ewing for a mid-range shot.

However, those two plans are not humiliating enough in Shay's opinion!

Shea wants Williams to know that he is not the same level of player as him!

So, Xie Yi, who was breaking through at a very fast speed, suddenly pulled back his crotch and made an emergency stop to retreat!

Walter Williams braked suddenly, but because he had just been running at full speed, the inertia was too great.

So after braking, he staggered forward and was sent flying near the bottom line, whereupon he almost fell!

Watching Walter Williams being swung away by Shay, huge cheers erupted in the Great Western Forum.

Williams put his hands on the ground to prevent him from falling directly.

Frustrated, he immediately straightened his back and prepared to stick to Shay's side again, but when he stood up again and faced the court, he saw that Shay had jumped into the air and crashed towards him.

"Bang!"

The basket made a loud noise, and Shea spread his legs and straddled Walter Williams.

After Shay sent Williams flying, he immediately gave him another dunk, humiliating his opponent twice in one round and maxing out his humiliation level!

After the dunk landed, Shea looked at the embarrassed Walter Williams and shook his finger at him: "Even if my teeth are really pulled out, you are still vulnerable! Because you are as soft as a paper cup.

cake!"

Seeing this first offense, Lakers fans had an orgasm in their skulls.

With the one-stop combination of knocking down and dunking, Shay is worthy of being a dairy giant in the alliance!

But at this time, Bill Walton poured cold water on him:
