Although the Warriors were 11 points ahead at the end of the first half, the tone of this game was a defensive battle, and the 11-point lead was already considerable.

In the first half, the Warriors' defense Bulls only scored 38 points. Whether it was Pi Er, Kukochi, who came from the bench, or even Danzi, the offensive end was extremely bleak.

Danzi finished one half and made only 5 hits in 14 shots, only 14 points.

Danzi's condition is actually quite good. His five hits were all driven by defense.

In other words, the Warriors' defense is too tight and it makes Danzi feel very uncomfortable.

Every time I take action, it is extremely difficult and has nothing to do with the word "calm".

Such meticulous defense also made Matt Gudica and Muff Albert on the commentator's seat unable to help but whine.

"It's really unbelievable. Last season's Warriors were playing the whirlwind running and bombing. In the first game of this season, they turned into a defensive team with iron-blooded defense. With such a drastic change, they only took one summer..."

"The Warriors only scored 38 points in the first half. If they were last season, it would be unimaginable.

But what I mean is if, it’s not that the Warriors’ defense is too strong, it’s that the Bulls are too weak?”

Groom Albert proposed a hypothesis, which is still a little likely.

After all, the Bulls were not considered a strong team last season.

Although the Bulls are crazy in strengthening the summer, it is still unknown whether these strengthenings can be really implemented.

If you strengthen your loneliness, the Bulls will naturally not be considered a strong team.

But for the Warriors, regardless of whether the Bulls are strong or not, they will be successful in this half.

"In the first half, our defense was very successful, which is worthy of praise, but it must be noted that we have another half to play, and a real defensive team must first do it, to ensure high-intensity defensive suppression throughout the game."

Although he gave his team members word by word, the smiling old Nelson still exposed his joy and satisfaction now.

In the second half, although the players were replaced, the Warriors' defense still maintained a high intensity, suppressing the Bulls from beginning to end.

Danzi is the most active player on the Bulls' offensive end. In the second half, he tried more rushing attacks.

The effect is still there, at least Danzi's own hit rate has improved at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He made 5 of 14 in the first half and scored 4 of 7 in the third quarter.

By the end of the game, when the suspense of the game had almost ended, Danzi made up another 2 of 3.

At the end of the game, the Warriors won the opening game with a score of 98 to 81.

Danzi made 11 of 24 shots, and although his shooting percentage was less than 50%, compared to his 35.7% shooting percentage in the first half, his shooting percentage of 45.8% at the end of the game was much better.

For Danzi himself, this hit rate is enough to give a qualified evaluation.

On the Warriors, Lin Xing, who sat on the sidelines early to rest, looked at the technical statistics table after the game and saw himself-

With 11 of 22 shots, he will score 50% of the shooting percentage, score 25 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 steals, and 2 big blocks.

The data is incomparable to the last season, but there is nothing we can do about it.

The number of offensive rounds has continued, and the scoring and assists are destined to be low.

However, because the Bulls had no choice but to assist Lin Xing in defending against Lin Xing's defensive strategy, Lin Xing's assists were not small in this game, and one less was in double digits.

However, there are only 8 rebounds, which is less than the preseason.

But this is related to the Warriors' defensive strategy. Lin Xing took on the heavy responsibility of assisting defense and supplementing defense, and he had no chance to grab the board at the basket.

Fortunately, there are enough steals and blocks, plus the winning goal.

Lin Xing takes on the goal of mvp+dpoy, and I can still say one thing-

He took the perfect first step!

Turning around and looking at Danzi's shooting and various statistics:

"11 of 24 shots, 27 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, and the score is 2 points higher than mine..."

All of them were 11, and Danzi had more free throws, which was also due to his continuous box-rushing style in the second half.

Although he scored two more points, Danzi was still far inferior to Lin Xing's influence in this game.

Lin Xing even felt that Danzi played a bit like the later deputy goat in this game.

The data in the first half was bleak, but in the second half, the data was swept back with the ultimate play.

When I saw this game, I was losing. If I wanted to share the blame, I wouldn't be able to share Danzi.

The reality is-

Danzi just scored 27 points dryly, and the impact of this score on the game is basically zero.

To put it bluntly, this is a defensive battle.

With all his teammates being guarded so badly, Danzi's 27 points didn't quench his thirst at all.

In such a game, if the star of the player doesn’t take the blame, who will take the blame?

Danzi also understood this, and at this moment he had no choice but to put his waist on his back.

To be honest, he was a little confused.

As for this defeat, Danzi didn’t know whether the Warriors were too strong or the Bulls were too weak?

When he shook his head, Danzi found that the crazy media on the sidelines had surrounded him.

After helplessly, Danzi began to accept the media's questions after the game.

"This is just a regular season game, and no one can guarantee that they will win every regular season game, so it won or lost, it proves that nothing can be made."

"You say it's an opener, which further proves that they can't explain much. Why? Because we have too many new players, we are still running-in."

"Star? His performance is indeed great, but it has not been better than the point that I, the opponent, is worthy of hype at him after the game. He is still very young and has a long way to go."

"My condition? I don't think I'm in a bad state. Actually, I'm in a better state than ever."

"As for losing, I said, we are still in the running-in period..."

“…”

On the other side of the court, Lin Xing stood up and slapped his teammates at high high, and was surrounded by groups of reporters.

“It’s great to win the first game of the season, it’s a great start, and of course, more importantly, the victory of this game proves that our new season changes are right.”

"It is indeed a big change from offense to defense, but to be honest, it's not that I want Versailles, but it's really not difficult to change from offense to defense."

"Middle? Emmm, he said he was in good shape, and he also said that he has returned to his true peak this season. If all he said is true, it can only prove that our defense is very successful."

"Yes, yes, limiting the shooting percentage of the Mid to 45.8% is already our success."

"What is the evaluation of the Bulls? There is nothing to evaluate, the season has just begun..."

"The expectations of the new season? Get everything you can get!"

Compared to Danzi's embarrassment, Lin Xing seemed very calm.

Who made NBA a place where only winners can speak?

After the game, the two who ended the interview did not meet again.

Lin Xing hugged Lang Li and chatted for a few words. Danzi hurriedly left on the bull's side.

This game was the opening game of the three most attention, and it ended in a hurry.

...

espn: "The Warriors defended and won the battle!"

Sports Illustrated: "The opening game was suppressed from beginning to end. Did the Bulls make up for the wrong reinforcement this summer?"

"Chicago Lianhe Zaobao": "It's still running in, it's still running in..."

"San Jose Mercury": "Offensively turns into defense, the Warriors turn into a defensive team."

"Star Lin: Get everything you can get!"

The day after the game, the Warriors had already appeared in the Big Apple City.

Lin Xing saw this specially picked headline report by the New York Times and shook her head.

Judging from this headline, the purpose of New York media in setting up the rhythm has become obvious.

There are also many Brick reporters who are following the New York media to praise their stinky feet.

In a nbc program, the well-known Lin Heihei Abbott relied on this topic:

"Star Lin's meaning is clear. This season, his goal is to win the championship, all the individual or team honors he can get."

"It is a good thing to be confident, but I think Stah's words are not just self-confidence, he is more like a conceit..."

"Simply put, he didn't take other star players in the NBA seriously. He felt that he was invincible after getting MVP last season."

“…”

In New York, in the hotel, Lin Xing looked at Henry Abbott on the TV and said:

"I haven't seen this guy for a long time, and I thought he had passed away."

Lin Xing did not take Henry Abbott's words to the extreme.
