…
ESPN’s analysis this year is relatively straightforward, and it is also in line with the expectations of fans and other media.
The only thing that is more controversial is the top two. Many fans who support the Nets feel that they are not worse than the Warriors after getting Anthony.
However, such controversies are held every year, and there will be no results. Only when the two sides have really finished, can there be a temporary conclusion.
But fans don’t have to wait long this year, because according to the league’s announced schedule, the opening season of the new season is the Nets vs. Warriors.
The league has always liked to shape grievances, and this year is no exception.
This opener can also be described as the eye-catcher.
The past offseason leagues were greatly affected by referee betting events, and they hope to use this method to regain attention.
ESPN, TNT, FOX Sports and other media have done enough publicity before the game.
World wars, battles of the pinnacles, finals rehearsals, all kinds of vocabulary that can be used are overwhelming.
The night of the Brooklyn neighborhood was unprecedentedly lively.
The Barclays Center is also crowded, and fans can’t wait for the peak matchup between the two sides.
Cousins will not play in this game, however, and his Achilles tendon injury is not expected to recover until December.
Prior to the start of the competition, the award ceremony of the championship ring was held on site.
Most of the Nets’ championship members remain on the team. When each of them receives the ring, there will be loud cheers on the scene.
In front of the Warriors, fans will become much more excited than usual.
The Warriors are obviously able to see a breath of breath, and have to say that the arrangement of the league is really a little irritating to them.
The award ceremony was over and the Nets’ second championship banner was raised on the scene.
Moving from New Jersey to Brooklyn, the Nets are rapidly rising under the leadership of Tang Tian.
The starters of both sides waited after the opening ceremony.
On the Nets side, Tang Tian sent a regular lineup, with Owen and Butler on the outside, George and Anthony on the front, and Jokic on the center.
On the Warriors side, Cousins was absent. Kevin Luney was the starting center. The other positions were four stars, Curry, Thompson, Durant and Green.
Jokic jumped to win Green, giving the home team a chance to take the lead.
Owen advanced to the frontcourt, and George put on the pick-and-roll as soon as possible. After Owen held the ball and broke the inside line, Jokic followed up.
There were cheers at the scene.
The fans’ faces turned red.
The offense of the Nets only took about 10 seconds. Whether it was George’s active pick-and-roll, Irving’s ball, or Jokic’s follow-up, all were just right. The whole offense was flowing.
This is a sublimation compared to last season’s slightly jerky offense.
This is also the improvement of the running-in and tacit understanding. Last season was the first season after all. After a season of running-in and off-season training, it did not look normal without improving.
For the Warriors offense, Curry misplaced Owen and couldn’t find it. After the Warriors ran for a while without the ball, Green faced Owen and Curry gave the ball directly.
Green directly hit Irving with the ball high, but was forced to stop when he hit the free throw line.
Owen’s constant steal attempts made him nearly concede.
Although it is not difficult to improve physical confrontation and cooperative defense, in the past offseason, his hard training on the defensive end has also improved significantly, at least the defense of the single defense has been much more aggressive.
After stopping the ball, Green chose a small hook against Irving.
But as soon as he shot, a figure flew over, slap the ball directly back to his shot!
Anthony!
Turns out to be Anthony!
After recovering from a knee injury, his athleticism and movement speed have improved significantly compared to last season!
Because it was the opening match, the fans did not expect it, even Green was probably not even thinking about it!
George quickly grabbed the ball and turned to play fast. Curry didn’t get the foul in advance.
As soon as George rode away from the dust, he shook off all the Warriors and rushed to the front court.
“Oh!”
The basket shook for a while ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ The cheers were loud.
After the split, he rushed to the sideline to roar.
He kept playing last season. Even in the playoffs, he still had a little bit of strength. After all, the future was unserved, but after the offseason and the Nets signed a maximum salary, his heart was completely relaxed. 100% invested.
The Warriors played in the frontcourt, and Curry passed the ball to Durant, but the intention was too obvious, and George directly prejudged it to be broken.
The Nets played a fast break again. Irving took George’s pass, and the frontcourt escaped the ball to avoid Thompson’s blocked shot.
A beautiful 2 + 1.
After Owen added a penalty, the Nets started 7-0!
Warriors, a little panic!
