1. Rockets vs. Bulls
Rockets
As we all know, the Rockets have been constantly tossing in order to win the championship in recent years. They first recruited Paul with huge sums of money to form a "bulb" with Harden The combination even gave up Capela and imitated the Warriors and started to build a five-small lineup. After tossing to no avail, they gave up Paul and recruited the former teammate Westbrook for Harden. However, no matter how hard the Rockets are, they still can't get one step closer to the playoffs and can't win the championship. Perhaps because of losing patience with the Rockets, Harden began to have the idea of changing the door. In fact, the fans should also be able to understand, after all, Harden has already passed the year and has reached the peak for many years. However, he never met a strong teammate at his peak. Whenever in the playoffs, other teams will always double-team Harden against the Rockets and get good results every time. Because once Harden was restricted, the rest of the Rockets were unable to come forward due to personal abilities, causing the Rockets' offense to stagnate, and ultimately only ended in failure. Therefore, Harden wants to find a reliable teammate, work hard together, and then realize the championship. If the Rockets can recruit Embiid, an excellent center, and Harden, an excellent shooting guard, they can really achieve good results, and they can even realize their dreams like James and Davis. But in any case, the Rockets in the new season are still worth looking forward to. The preseason is a stage for the Rockets to adapt the new lineup, but for Harden, it is more like a journey of heart. According to the news, Harden is accepting the new crown detection procedure and did not go with the team. New players such as Wall, Wood and Cousins and have appeared, and the Rockets are striving for a good start.
Bulls Recent situation
On the Bulls side, they are very quiet in the offseason. The biggest trick is to hire Donovan as the coach and choose Patrick Williams with the 4th pick. From the current point of view, the main task of the Bulls in the new season is still to train young players. With the Bulls as the core of Kobe White, Lavin , and Wendell Carter, the future of the team is pinned on Patrick Williams. growing up. However, the Bulls did not have heavy signings during the offseason. With the current lineup, it is difficult to enter the playoffs. Only when Butler and really leave the team can we see who is swimming naked. Butler has only left the Bulls for three seasons. The Bulls have changed two head coaches, and the playoffs are far away. With Porter's arrival in 2019, the Bulls played their best performance of the season. Last season, the Bulls’ goal for the season was to make the playoffs, but Porter missed the game for four months due to a foot injury, which frustrated the Bulls’ plan. The Bulls do need Porter's leadership. The team's new coach Donovan has stated that Porter is the team's first choice on the front line. In addition, the most noteworthy player for the Bulls is LaVine, who may be the best dunker in NBA history, whose talent has never been underestimated. He averaged 25.5 points, 4.8 points and 4.2 assists per game last season, but the team's poor defense and weak record also made his statistics seem too pale.
2. Clippers vs Lakers current situation
Clippers current situation
For the Clippers, the team failed last season because of the lack of inside height on the one hand, and the lack of someone who can organize the ball. The team's guard. And in the offseasonIn the season they lost Harrell, but their strength in signings has also improved, they were given Ibaka , Batum and Luke Kennard, and coach Lu. The team was depressed out of the Western Conference semifinals last season, and the Clippers did not intend to tear down the core members. Leonard is about to become a free agent, leaving George is also the Clippers' efforts to keep the small card. They renewed a four-year $190 million new contract with George. George also expressed his determination for the team's contribution. The Clippers were overturned by Nuggets and with a 3-1 lead last season, which caused the Clippers to be at the forefront of the storm, making fans really wonder why a team with two superstars and two super sixth men would lose. ball. George and Leonard took turns to misfire, and ultimately missed the Western Conference Finals, making them the biggest joke last season after Antetokounmpo. There were three major problems with last season’s unsatisfactory performance. Two of them were the lack of inside defense and the chaos in the locker room. After the Clippers have undergone major adjustments this season, can the newly appointed Director Lu solve the Clippers’ criticisms? It is worth looking forward to.
Lakers Recent developments The
Lakers have always been a very famous team in NBA history, and numerous stars have been born in team history. James led the Lakers to the 17th championship trophy in team history last season, and he himself won the Finals MVP for the fourth time, becoming the first in NBA history to represent the three teams to win the championship and be elected as the Finals MVP. player of. In addition, point guard Magic Johnson, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, small forward LeBron James, power forward Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and center O'Neal, if these five people form a team, they are also quite outstanding in the entire NBA history. Lakers President Pelinka signed Schroder, Harrell, Gasol Jr., and Matthews successively during the offseason, which provided the Lakers with a very strong offensive firepower and allowed Zhan Mei to get more rest time. Pau Gasol perfectly combines the roles of Howard and McGee, and has excellent high-level coping ability. James is also a passing master. They also provide the Lakers with a large number of perfect mobile games on the court. Matthews has a good three-point shooting rate. The Lakers need a stable three-point shooter. James used to have four shooters alone and has a good performance! Many fans also said that this lineup, the first in the Western Conference in the regular season is also appropriate. Of course, this is also indispensable for the players' running-in in the preseason to show their strength.
