Beijing time on November 8, today's Lakers player Alex Caruso talked about his views on the start time of the new season on a show. According to previous statistics, the Lakers and the Heat will be the new season on December 23. At the beginning, they can only get 72 days of rest. The 8 teams that did not participate in the Orlando rematch will have a rest time of 286 days; the 6 teams that participated in the rematch but missed the playoffs will have a rest time of 129 days; lose the division The Nuggets Celtics in the finals have a rest of 86 days. This means that the Lakers and Heat are the teams with the least rest time.
Regarding this matter, Caruso said he didn’t care about it. He said: “I don’t have any opinion on this. From a career perspective, I’m still relatively young. I only played in the playoffs once. As a two-way contract player for two years, I only played one-third of the season each year. So I feel good physically, and I think the start of December is not a big deal for me."
As Caruso said, 12 The start of the month has little effect on young players and players who have played less games in the past, but like James, who has played 9 finals in the past 10 years and is now 35 years old, Just 72 days of rest time is really not enough, it's no wonder James tweeted yesterday and expressed helplessness. Yesterday, James updated Instagram Story to express his thoughts on the start date of the new NBA season. James released a picture of ESPN TV coverage, accompanied by a headache picture, expressing some of his complaints about the premature start of the game.
ESPN reporter Brian Windhorst talked about James’ attitude in a recent show. He said: “LeBron was opposed to doing this at first. Later, someone told me that LeBron changed his mind: I can start the game on December 23. Although I have to break some of my rules for this, I do feel unhappy about such a short offseason, but this is the best choice from a business point of view. "Z2z
To put it simply, James is not about starting the game too early. Satisfied, but he knows that complaining is useless. This is due to the league’s business considerations. It is impossible to specialize for him. James can only accept it. This is what he should do as a professional player. Some people may also say that James is the first person in the league and the face of the NBA. It stands to reason that the league should consider his health and age and try to delay the start of the new season. After all, if there is not enough rest, James will appear again in 2018- With injuries like the 2019 season, the NBA will lose out. But in fact, many people, including James, have discovered that the NBA has actually no longer wanted to continue to praise James in these years.
includes the just-concluded 19-20 season. Some things can actually tell that the NBA is working hard to promote newcomers to the top. During the whole season, James couldn’t get as many penalties in his favor as he did in the past. The main player, James only averaged 5.7 free throws per game this season, a career low. At the same time, the league was giving momentum to Leonard, Antetokounmpo and even rookie Zion at the beginning of the season. Even James has repeatedly derided himself as a deadly king. If it weren’t for James and the Lakers to win the NBA championship this year, I am afraid this offseason the league will create a new momentum for the first man in the league.
James himself is very aware of these situations, so although he is dissatisfied, he is not willing to say anything. The NBA will not change anything for him anyway, so this offseason, what James does most is training and drinking to be himself What can be done, enjoy the moment, I have to say that after 17 years in the NBA, James has seen everything.
