The first wave of offense in the opening game belonged to the Rockets. Capela defeated Yi Jianlian for the Rockets' first goal, and then Harden and Capela connected.
Harden reached the top of the arc with the ball, Capela came out for a pick-and-roll, Yi Jianlian followed, and then Capela passed down. Harden saw this and decisively threw a high ball to avoid the chasing Li Hao.
Capela jumped high and scored the Rockets' first goal of the game with an alley-oop.
Capella's title of cake king is confirmed this season.
The Rockets scored, and the Lakers naturally wanted to give it back. The moment Li Hao crossed the half court with the ball, Ariza immediately pounced on him. Li Hao had already anticipated Ariza's reaction, so he immediately changed his mind the moment Ariza pounced on him. Step backward to cross it.
Compared with last season, Li Hao was faster. The difference was a thousand miles away. Ariza obviously didn't expect that Li Hao could get faster. You know, Li Hao's original speed already made Ariza very uncomfortable.
Other Rockets players obviously didn't expect Li Hao to pass Ariza so easily, so there was no defensive player in front of Li Hao who passed Ariza. In this situation, if Li Hao didn't make a move, it wouldn't be him.
Bang——
Under normal circumstances, Li Hao should have scored this goal. After all, Li Hao had a three-point shooting percentage of 50.5 last season.
But the fact is that the Lakers' basket rejected Li Hao.
"Lee actually missed the shot?" Kenny Smith exclaimed, while Lakers fans looked in disbelief.
No way, Li Hao was so accurate last season. It felt like he could score every time he took a shot from outside the three-point line.
Well, in fact, it’s not just the Lakers who think so, the Rockets also think so. Because of this, neither Capela nor Anderson reacted immediately, and Yi Jianlian was just standing in the direction where the basketball popped out. .
The Arab League picked up a board angrily, and after the Arab League picked up the first board, Capela reacted and immediately blocked it in front of him. Yi Jianlian, who originally wanted to attack by himself, saw this and passed the ball back to Li Hao outside the three-point line. .
Li Hao, who received the ball from the team, did not hesitate at all and took another shot directly from outside the three-point line. Ariza was once again a step slower, and when he reacted, Li Hao had already taken the shot.
Bang——
Well, Li Hao still missed his second three-point shot.
"Li Hao's hand doesn't seem to be very good today," Yang Yi said a little depressed.
I didn't expect Li Hao to miss an open shot before, so Capela didn't react immediately to grab the rebound, but this time Capela was obviously prepared.
"No~~~The Lakers' offense is not over yet. Lee rushed in and Clint is in danger." When the commentator exclaimed, Rockets players were also reminding Capela, but it was already too late.
Moreover, at this time, Capela was completely focused on fighting for rebounds and could not hear the voices of his teammates at all. Just when Capela thought he could get the basketball, there was a sudden sense of pressure behind him, and then he grabbed it with one hand. He encountered basketball before.
Bang——
boom--
"Li Qi dunked Clint~~~ God, it is said that the two of them have a very close relationship in private." When Li Hao came to the Lakers for a trial training, Capela happened to be also training with the Lakers.
"Li Ke is just a three-point shooter. He is also a dunker and has an extremely good body." In the eyes of many fans, Li Hao's not participating in the dunk contest is a waste of his talent and a loss to the dunk contest.
Even if James was like that, Li Hao is different from James in that he does not have the appetite to seduce fans and the media. From beginning to end, Li Hao made it clear to everyone that he did not want to participate in the dunk contest.
Although Li Hao himself has actually thought about participating in the dunk contest, he has never said anything about it to the outside world.
…………………………………………….
"Man, you can't blame me for this." After landing, Li Hao looked at Capella with an innocent face.
"I hope you won't blame me later," Capella said fiercely.
Capella already had a fierce face, and his fierce expression at this moment was enough to scare a child, but Li Hao obviously didn't care.
The game restarted on the court, and Harden still held the position.
The ball, and this time Harden still did not shoot by himself, but used a tactical coordination to pass the ball to Anderson outside the three-point line.
Ryan Anderson is an excellent shooter power forward, with a career three-point shooting percentage of close to 40%. However, when receiving the pass from Harden, there was no defensive player around Anderson, and Randall did not follow up in time.
brush--
With the knife in hand, Anderson scored the Rockets' first three-pointer of the game.
During the transition between offense and defense, "Li Wei" on the Lakers side connected. Li Hao held the ball at the top of the arc to attract the defense. Wade suddenly inserted from an angle. Li Hao understood Wade's running route and passed the ball to the insertion with a ground-breaking pass. Wade's hands under the basket.
Li Hao's pass was predicted in advance, so Wade was very comfortable when he made an excuse and took off directly.
Bang——
boom--
"Capella was dunked by Lee, and Anderson, who had just made a three-pointer, was dunked by Dwyane." Looking at this dunk alone, you can't tell that Wade is 34 years old.
"Li, your pass is so comfortable." Wade didn't forget to praise Li Hao after landing.
"It seems that Li Hao and Wade will be a good backcourt partner." Part of the reason why Wade is loved by fans is that when he joined the Lakers, he showed that he was here to assist Li Hao and help the team's young players. growing up.
"Yes, Wade's arrival also makes up for the Lakers' good experience." Experience is very important for players.
After "Li Wei" connected, Harden finally chose to do it himself, and this time Harden still scored two points under Li Hao's defense.
Li Hao, who had already scored, continued to pass the ball to his teammates, this time Randall. After hard work in the summer, Randall has developed certain long-range shooting and ball-holding abilities.
This time Randall was a long two-pointer. If he didn't step on the line, it would have been a three-pointer. Randall's shot made the Lakers fans shine.
Obviously, after a summer, the Lakers' young players seem to have made good progress. Li Hao's training with his teammates has also been reported by the Los Angeles media.
Seeing Li Hao send out another assist, Harden was not to be outdone. He immediately used his breakthrough to attract the attention of the defensive player and passed Gordon diagonally. The latter easily hit two points.
Then Li Hao sent out an assist again. I don’t know if Li Hao and Harden did it on purpose. Six minutes before the game started, Li Hao and Harden both sent out 6 assists.
At the end of the first quarter, Harden was one assist away from reaching double figures, but Li Hao was not to be outdone. At the end of the first quarter, he was only one assist less than Harden.
Ingram got an open opportunity during an attack. Li Hao immediately sent the ball to Ingram, but Ingram failed to grasp it and missed the shot.
