Chapter 798 [Do whatever you want, full of loopholes]

On October 31, several teams appeared the next day, fighting each other.

The Cavaliers lost to the Mavericks 74-108 at home, and staged a terrible opening match.

What surprised the most was not the score, but LeBron James' state. He made only 2 of 11 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, 6 of 10 free throws, scored 10 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and had 5 turnovers, which was very different from his performance in the US Championships.

In the international arena, James' teammates are a group of All-Stars, and it is difficult for his opponent to double-team him. Now the Mavericks are huddling around the three-second zone and let him take action from mid to long distance.

Boozer performed best in the team with 17 points and 18 rebounds, and the Gulan Master also made up for 12 points and 10 rebounds, and the others didn't score in double digits. Gibson, Marshall, Damon Jones and others were collectively lost.

After losing House, the Cavaliers renewed their contract with the "Flying Squirrel" Stardameier and dug point guard Brevin Knight in the free market. He is 178cm tall to defend a black hole, has good organizational ability, has no range, and is not suitable for the Cavaliers system.

Digging Knight is a helpless move by the Cavaliers management. There is no good point guard in the free market. The only powerful Mo Williams and the Bucks have renewed their contract for 51.5 million for 6 years, and the Cavaliers have no salary space to poach people.

They could only let Gibson, who was good at shooting three points, play the starting lineup, Knight and Flying Mouses were responsible for organizing the offense when James was off the court. Jones could only play the shooting guard, and his performance was very bad.

Mavericks blue-collar center Dessa Gena Diop became the victim of the Cavaliers, scoring 8 points, 11 rebounds and 4 blocks, but he was just a little bit of a pass in the penalty area, and the Cavaliers had to avoid him in the inside and were also interfered with shooting. He was in the penalty area, so James couldn't break into the basket and easily scored.

Embarrassingly, Diop was a player selected by the Cavaliers at the time and was a marginal player for two seasons. The Suns replaced him to the team without much cost. After joining the Mavericks, he replaced Danpier to play the starting lineup.

The Mavericks signed Ariza in the summer, and with Starkhouse and Trenton Hassel, the wing defense has also become stronger.

On the offensive end, Nowitzki performed stably, with his strength slightly better than Boozer. Terry was the sixth man, made 7 of 12 shots, 6 of 8 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws, scoring the highest 24 points and 4 assists in the game, beating the Cavaliers substitute.

The Mavericks have become a strong team in the West again, and the situation in the West has changed even more chaotic.

The Spurs lost to the Grizzlies 108-111 away game, which shows how cruel the competition in the West is.

The gdp combination scored 64 points, and the team's five players scored in double digits.

However, the Grizzlies are also very strong, Gasol scored 22 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, Randolph scored 28 points and 12 rebounds, Mike Miller scored 15 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, 6 players in the team scored in double digits, and rookie Conley made his debut with 10 points and 4 assists.

After the first game, no expert said that the Warriors could threaten the Suns and attack the championship.

The Suns, Mavericks, Spurs, Grizzlies, and Rockets, who can the Warriors play? The Lakers, Jazz, Nuggets and Timberwolves have also been amazing in their debut, and they all beat their opponents in the first game.

It is more realistic for the Warriors to set their goal to enter the playoffs, and it depends on hard work.

The brightest team in the East is the Magic, which beat the Bucks 30 points in the first game, continuing the strength of the preseason.

The Nets defeated the Bulls, and the other Eastern teams lost, and the situation of the strong West and weak East still remained unchanged. The Celtics did not appear until the fourth day according to the schedule, and I don’t know why.

On November 1, the Suns beat the Supersonics 116-89 away.

Guo Xu got off work after playing casually for 30 minutes, scoring 17 points and 12 assists. Six players in the Suns scored in double digits, mainly in chaos. Guo Xu counterattacked and advanced to the frontcourt. The players would fight one-on-one if they had the chance to catch the ball.

Roy made the SuperSonics Damien Wilkins unable to find North, scoring 30 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists in the game, and performed well in two consecutive games, and seemed to be about to transform into an All-Star.

Durant scored 27 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists in his debut, and performed well. Tanhua Al Horford was a substitute, scoring 10 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.

On the 2nd, the Suns lost the game back to back against the Lakers at home, completely losing the domineering spirit of 78 wins last season.

Guo Xu's leg injury has been cured long ago, and his body has returned to its peak state. He played Fisher and Ellis had a clear advantage. He scored 38 points, 5 rebounds, 14 assists and 3 steals, with a large double-double shooting percentage of 58% and a three-point shooting percentage of 50%. S. and Roy scored 20+ respectively, but the Suns still failed to win.

The reason for their loss was that there was a problem with the defense, and both sides played a higher score of 109 to 118.

After the game, some experts believed that Guo Xu and Xiao Si had a problem with their mentality, their defense was not active enough, and their offensive choices were too casual. Guo Xu had many behind-the-back passes in each game, and they played really beautifully. He was frequently selected as the top five goals of the day, but there were more mistakes.

Guo Xu knew that if the "Siguoyi" group did not break up, he would not be able to win the regular season MVP again. He would not consider him because of the league's urinary nature. Then he would deny it if he used "there are many stars in the Sun" as a reason.

There are indeed many stars in the team. If Guo Xu competes for the scoring king, he will inevitably take more moves, which will affect the cooperation of the whole team, and may also lead to dissatisfaction among those teammates of the contract year. He has won the 40+ scoring king, and no matter how hard he works, it will be difficult to challenge that data, and it is not very meaningful.

Therefore, Guo Xu didn't take the regular season seriously at all. He just played with a playful attitude, played as he wanted, passed the ball to his teammates on a high-difficulty basis, and had the opportunity to throw it against others when counterattacking. It was not a problem to take action two meters outside the three-point line.

Xiao Si has a similar mentality. It is difficult for him to compete for Guo Xu in terms of honor. He has a very relaxed mentality after four consecutive championships.

In this way, as long as Guo Xu, Xiao S and Thomas appear together, the Suns' defense will be full of loopholes.

They played so hard that it was not surprising that they lost. After a day off, the Suns lost to the Jazz by 4 points away, and suffered two consecutive losses.

When the score difference was only 1 point, Guo Xu passed the ball from behind and directly passed the baseline, giving the ball to the opponent for nothing. Then the former Suns swinger Gordon Kirisek sealed the throat with a sword from outside the three-point line.

The Suns' most active person in defense is Millsap. He is still a fringe because his shooting is not good enough. The third player in the No. 4 position cannot change the atmosphere inside the team.

This is the embodiment of human nature, so many teams are unable to do so after three consecutive championships, and it is difficult to achieve four consecutive championships. The manager of the Dynasty team will choose to "major change" the lineup. There is no championship in the transaction, there are role players who want to win and the core team-building partners.

On October 6, the Suns easily defeated the weak Bobcats with 21 points away and stopped the decline. On the 7th, they lost 6 points back to back to Nash's leading Hawks.

The Suns started with a bad record of 3 wins and 3 losses, and the fans were confused. Could it be that Marion has such a great effect? ​​Without him, the team will not be able to do it? But Marion was reimbursed in the 2005-06 season and didn't feel anything.

The Magic started with 4 wins and 1 loss, and Marion was the team's third scoring point and performed well, which was similar to the role he played in the Suns.

On November 9, the Suns continued their away journey, which was the focus of this round. The opponent was the Eastern Conference champion Cavaliers last season, with 2 wins and 3 losses at the beginning, and the two teams were considered brothers and brothers.

Boozer's performance in this game was not bad, only 3 of 11 shots, 5 of 6 free throws scored only 11 points and 12 rebounds. The Cavaliers lacked important scoring points, and the substitute lineup was not strong, and the strongest substitute was only Devin Brown, who was beaten by the Suns.

At the end of the game, the Cavaliers lost 32 points at home.
