Doncic is smoking! Lakers 109-119 Warriors, in this battle, you have to admit one fact

For the regular season opener, the NBA has an interesting arrangement, with the Rockets playing the Thunder and the Warriors playing the Lakers. In the previous game, the Thunder and Fire fought in double overtime, and the Thunder narrowly won by 1 point. This matchup between the Lakers and Yongs is almost a topic of discussion. After all, if James doesn't play, it will be difficult for Doncic to lead the team alone to stop the Warriors' attack. This is the ending of a game that we already know before the game is played. The Lakers eventually lost to the Warriors 109-119. It was really too much to lose by only 10 points.

Redick's starting lineup was Doncic at point guard, Vincent at shooting guard, Reeves was arranged to play small forward, and Ayton and Hachimura were on the inside. There is nothing wrong with this set of 3 guards + dead five, as they are all in line with Doncic's style of play. With a pie inside, Hachimura can stretch the space, Reeves can output from the wing, and Vincent and Doncic have double firepower. We won't mention defense. Redick dared to put up this lineup because he wanted to play against the Warriors. After all, we know the defense aspect well.

In the beginning, the Lakers' tactics were a one-star, one-cake, three-shooter system. Doncic used the shield to score points in pick-and-rolls, and then Doncic fired again. At least before the offense was powered off, the Lakers and Warriors went back and forth. After all, the Warriors are a bunch of old guys and they don’t dare to increase their intensity. But the Warriors have a stronger rotation, with Horford and Hield providing firepower on the bench. After Kuminga negotiated with the Warriors, his mentality at the beginning of this year was much more mature, focusing on defense and three-pointers, and he was at home at the 4th position. The Warriors started with five points, but gained a 28-22 advantage.

In the second quarter, both sides began to increase their intensity, and their offense was mediocre. Relying on Doncic's kills and assists with the ball, the Lakers kept on holding on and successfully caught up to only 1 point. But the Lakers' problems were exposed in the second half. The offense lost power for 5 minutes, and they relied on Doncic to score 4 points piecemeal. The Warriors soon led by 15 points. Seeing that the game was about to go to waste, Dongzi had to continue to attack fiercely. He turned on the unparalleled mode at the end of the third quarter and the final quarter, and the point difference once reached 8 points. But Butler and Curry killed the game at the end, and Dongzi was helpless. Butler was really good at drawing fouls.

Doncic scored 43 points, 12 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals in the whole game. Reeves had 26 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals but had the lowest plus-minus value of -14. Ayton had 10 points and 6 rebounds, Rui Hachimura had 9 points, and the substitutes Smart had 9 points, Laravia 5 points, and Vincent 3 points. Curry and Butler scored 54 points for the Warriors. Butler scored 31 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, making a terrifying 16 free throws. Curry scored 23 points. Kuminga scored 17 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists in the first game in the opening game, including 4 of 6 three-pointers. Dream Green had 9 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 blocks. The defense and organization were still online. The coach scored 5 points off the bench, but Hilde scored 17 points.

Overall, the Warriors' record this year is likely to be better than last season, and Kuminga has stabilized. Curry and Butler are really good when they play together. Butler is an all-around fighter and Curry attacks tough situations. This is also the reason why the Warriors defeated the Rockets in the seventh first round of the Western Conference last season. It's not that the Rockets are not good, but that the Warriors are very strong with a complete lineup. If Curry is not injured, the Timberwolves cannot beat the Warriors. This season, the Warriors can still produce a competitive five-year-old. After all, today's dream center, Kuming is a big forward, Butler is a small forward, and Curry and Pojie are in the backcourt. Horford's point should depend on whether the opponent's lineup starts. The biggest problem for the Lakers is that their defense is too poor. Doncic and Reeves are full of holes on the court. In fact, the Lakers should move Smart to the shooting guard for Doncic to help defend and sweep.

It is better for Reeves to lead the substitutes, otherwise the defense in the starting lineup will be too poor and the substitutes will have no output. And many people do underestimate James, just like when talking about James after the game, "Luka is a great player, but LeBron is LeBron." "

The meaning of this sentence is obvious. James is too familiar with the Warriors and has won head-to-head in the playoffs. Doncic's style of play is the core ball-holding style that the Warriors are least afraid of. You have to admit the fact that the Lakers need dual engines, and Dongzi needs Lao LeBron. In fact, Reeves can really be replaced by a defensive forward or backcourt. From a functional analysis, Christie will be more suitable for the Lakers than Reeves, but it is a pity that he was sent to the Mavericks.
