The Los Angeles Derby, which fans have been looking forward to for a long time, did not disappoint.Although the result of this game was a bit uncomfortable for most Los Angeles fans, the whole process of the game was very exciting.
The first match day of the regular season of the new season has given fans a feast for their eyes.Sure enough, after every turbulent summer, this league will not disappoint people who like basketball.Of course, these two openers were handpicked by the league.One is the old feud between the two most successful teams of last season, and the other is the new conflict between the two most successful teams of the offseason.
Like a big show, it caught the audience's attention as soon as it opened.The attention of the two games is very high, especially the game between the Lakers and the Clippers. In addition to the packed Staples Arena, the ratings have also created a new high for the opening game over the years.
As the winners of the opening game, the Thunder and the Clippers will naturally bring joy to the fans of the team.Of course, as head coaches, Donovan and Rivers are also quite satisfied with the fact that the team can get a good start.
"This is a great game. For the city of Los Angeles, this year is undoubtedly the most anticipated year. Whether it belongs to the Lakers or the Clippers, the players performed very well in the game, and everyone together It was a great showdown for the fans."
Facing the reporter's question, Rivers seemed particularly flat.He first affirmed the game and the performance of the players on both sides.Then, he spoke highly of the opponent Lakers and Lakers players.
"The Lakers are a team with a glorious history and a benchmark in this league. They have been in the process of rebuilding for the past few seasons. This year, they have finally become the team that people are most familiar with. The Lakers. They have a very strong strength. Under the leadership of LeBron and Anthony, they have become a championship-level team again. There is no doubt that they are a strong opponent. In this game, they are in the There was a lot of pressure on us both offensively and defensively."
Having said that, Rivers changed the subject and raised his tone.
"It's always nice to win a game, especially against a team like the Lakers. We all know how hard it is to beat them in Los Angeles, at the Staples Center. You It's hard to imagine that this game will be our home! Because throughout the game, more cheers are not ours. But we won the game! Our players played very well, everyone worked together , did what he was supposed to do.”
At the end of Rivers' speech, he took on a strong sense of complacency.For him, beating the Los Angeles Lakers is always something to be proud of.Whether it was when he was with the Boston Celtics or later with the Los Angeles Clippers, his team has always been compared with the Lakers.The yellow-green battle during the Celtics period can be regarded as a match. Later in the Clippers, the Lakers have declined, but they still affect the Clippers in many cases.Although the two teams are located in Los Angeles and share the same arena, the Lakers' popularity in Los Angeles can beat the Clippers by a few blocks.This made Rivers very uncomfortable. Every time he met the Lakers, he had a strong desire to win.
So, Rivers is very calm.He should be very happy!In the past few years, the Clippers led by him have often won the Lakers, but that was done when the strength of the two sides was very different.The situation is different this season. The Lakers and Clippers are known as the two teams with the greatest possibility of winning the entire league.The Clippers can beat the Lakers in this situation, and Rivers must have a strong sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Predictably, Rivers should have a good time this season.The Clippers' current lineup is indeed quite luxurious, starting with Leonard, Paul George, and Beverly.The substitutes include Lu Wei, Harrell and other titans.To use a sentence that fans ridiculed him is: "Rivers has never said in his life that he has never fought such a rich battle."Just like this game, although Paul George is still recovering from his injuries, it does not affect the result of the game at all. In the end, he successfully reversed the Lakers with the bench bandits last season.
Donovan was really calm.
"We all know that every game at Chesapeake Energy Arena is a carnival for all Oklahomans. As a part of Oklahoma, what I and my players have to do Just let all the fans who support us enjoy the game and enjoy the victory. We have been doing this in the past few seasons. In the future, we will still do the same thing."
When asked about the players' performance, Donovan didn't hold back on his praise.
"Ann has always been a great scorer, and I even think he's the best two in the league. As long as he's in the game, we have enough confidence to win games. Something happened to our lineup this season. Change, we need Ann to take more responsibility in the game. Now it seems that he is doing a great job! He is changing from an offensive finisher to a more versatile player. You can look forward to Ann's performance this season, He won't let us down."
"Danilo is the player we need. He has outstanding ability, rich experience, and knows how to help the team win the game. On both ends of our offense and defense, his contribution is very important. Shai is really a great young man. Man, his performance in the game is simply amazing! In fact, through previous games, we have seen the talent and ability of this young man. But from this game, it can be seen that his upper limit will far exceed ours expectations."
"Russell...he is still the most versatile player in the league...he is still the core of the team..."
……
In addition to the head coach's high evaluation of these two games, other media and basketball players expressed their views immediately.In general, everyone is satisfied with the debut of these four teams in the new season.Even the Raptors and Lakers who lost the game did not receive too much blame from everyone.After all, as long as Siakam can play out thoroughly, the Raptors will be considered a success this season.For the Lakers, James will not always be so sluggish.As long as James and Davis play their combat effectiveness normally, the Lakers will not be excluded from the championship sequence this season.
