Chapter 65 Season 2 Battle

Kobe's remarks in the post-match interview made many fans look at Li Yuan. However, the amount of news broadcast on TV stations every day is so large, and the popularity of Internet media is far less than that of TV stations. Even though Li Yuan won the first win in the regular season with Chris Bosh and nodded in major media in Los Angeles, the media in Los Angeles must have focused more on reporting news related to the Lakers. The Raptors have not had much reports about Li Yuan.

Of course, as long as the fans who watched the first game of the regular season, no matter whether they were Raptors or not, besides being sad that Kobe, who scored 41 points in the first game, would definitely be impressed by the Raptors, the No. 0 rookie.

Li Yuan was quite satisfied with his first regular season performance in his career. He scored 20 points and won the game. This was enough. This was a good start. He didn't think too much... nor could he think too much. After playing the Lakers game, they only had one day to adjust and immediately ushered in the second game of the regular season. This may not be much for the veteran, but instead he felt that there was enough time, but for a newcomer like Li Yuan, it needed to adapt - they will continue to sit at home and usher in the game against the Utah Jazz.

As the team selected Chris Bosh, Li Yuan and Iguodala one after another, the Raptors no longer need to continue to play badly, because if there are too many new players, there will be situations where they don’t know which rookie to focus on.

So this season, except for letting Li Yuan and others work together and grow, the only remaining goal is to enter the playoffs as much as possible.

The playoffs will undoubtedly improve the growth of new players than the regular season.

The Utah Jazz failed to enter the playoffs last season, and there are not many experts in the new season to look forward to it. On the Raptors' schedule, if they want to enter the playoffs this season, then this game is the same as the first game facing the Lakers, which is a game they have to win.

Even at the beginning, the coaching staff had a greater grasp of this game. After all, the Lakers completed the reorganization this summer. Although O'Neal left, the remaining Kobe is not fuel-efficient. In addition, the new Odom and Butler are both good young players. Who can guarantee that they will not get any magical chemical reactions?

However, judging from the final result, this Lakers probably won’t make it to the playoffs this season...

The situation of the Jazz is actually similar to that of the Lakers. After the 2002-03 season, with Karl Malone leaving the Lakers, Stockton officially retired, and the Jazz entered the reconstruction period. Although "ak47" Kirirenko rose last season, he alone could not complete the reconstruction.

This summer, the Jazz brought "reverse" Boozer to the team again, but judging from his performance in the previous two seasons, he has not yet reached the point where he can shoulder the offensive core of a team.

Apart from the two of them, there is no more famous guy in this team's lineup.

In terms of paper strength, it is definitely not as good as the Lakers.

The Raptors solved the Lakers, which allowed them to face the upcoming second game with a good attitude.

Speaking of which, Iguodala's template before the draft was nothing but Richard Jefferson and Kirilenko, who had matched his template so quickly, also gave the game some extra focus.

Of course, Iguodala is just a newcomer, and Kirilenko is also a new star who became famous last year. Even if Iguodala's template is Kirilenko, the discussion about the two before the game was not very big. The greater discussion was given to Boozer and Chris Bosh.

As two newcomers who performed well in the new generation, the collision between them has aroused discussions from many experts.

...

The second game day of the Raptors this season is coming soon. The JND Aviation Arena was obviously noisy that night. The number of fans in the entire audience was much more than the previous opening game. Although it still couldn't reach the full pit and valley, it can be seen that the attendance rate has recovered.

This part of the fans was attracted by the performance of Li Yuan's head of Li's performance that Kobe wanted to break his legs after the first game. They only found out in this game that the Raptors this season were far from the time they were desperate. Li Yuan's first career game and his debut at the Raptors' home court were not bad.

In addition, Chris Bosh's data of one person in the last game topped the Lakers' inside two players, which is also something that makes these fans happy.

This guy who adapted very quickly during the rookie season came to his second season of his career and showed his ability to improve significantly in the first game.

Li Yuan, and Chris Bosh... In the hearts of these Raptors fans, the Raptors' internal and external dual-core cores have already taken shape in the next few years.

When Chris Bosh entered the court today, he clearly felt the change in the atmosphere of the stadium. The increase in the number of fans made him smile, and he was more lively when warming up. The dreadlocks behind his head swayed irregularly with his beating, and his whole person was particularly lively.

He remembered the stadium's fanatic appearance of Vince Carter, and he also longed to restore this craze, rather than losing the madness that belonged to it as Vince Carter left the stadium.

Now, he saw good changes, which is why he was excited.

His excitement was also reflected on the court. When he met Boozer, who was heavily attacked and defensive, the energy he burst on the court could obviously suppress the latter. When Boozer scored the 15th point in this game, Chris Bosh's score had already exceeded 20 points.

The Jazz's current aces are Kirilianko and Boozer, but one thing must be said is that the core of the offensive is definitely Boozer.

And when a team that is under reconstruction has scored but won't be able to match the players, it is difficult for the team to gain the upper hand.

After all, teams in rebuilding generally do not have good defense, and the same is true for the Jazz. Even if this team has Jerry Sloan as the head coach, it will take time for him to cultivate a team's toughness in defense.

What's more, the old coach himself is still struggling. From this game, we can see that the Jazz have not yet formed a systematic offense and defense. The old coach is not used to using the third and fourth positions as the core. What he hopes to see is the playing style with the first and fourth positions as the core. The pick-and-roll tactics are his lifelong obsession.

This makes the Jazz currently have a slightly different intention of fighting on both offense and defense.

Chris Bosh played against Boozer, which means that the Jazz's offensive firepower is not as good as the Raptors.
