The Lakers lost 22 points in the first game of the preseason, which made people feel a little upset, but health is much more important than victory or defeat

The Lakers lost 22 points in the first game of the preseason, which is indeed a bit annoying to watch. Some posts and the fan group are quite annoying, but calm down and dig into the details, the amount of information hidden in this game is quite high. After all, Doncic and Smart were all absent. Coach Redick said before the game that health is much more important than victory or defeat, and the account must be settled in this way.

The more surprising point, Reeves' core confidence, scored 20 points in the game to carry the offense. When the team was silent in the third quarter, they relied on breakthroughs and three-pointers to score. This state is not like the person who just refused to renew his contract. Los Angeles really didn't keep him in vain, so don't argue about meaningless things at the beginning.

Ayton's defensive value is inconspicuous in data, but the big hat and the scramble for the position can be seen from the naked eye. Rebound protection is what was missing last season's playoffs. If the offensive end is fully integrated, you will definitely be able to get it. Doncic was missing in this game. Unfortunately, they were not able to see their 15 pick-and-rolls. Rivers' vision ability was also limited, which greatly weakened Ayton's upper limit.

What surprised me a little was that Hayes' bloodiness was really ignited in an instant, and Booker ignited the bench directly! With 7 points, 5 rebounds and 2 blocks, this physical fitness is good and suitable for being Ayton's substitute, which is a bit more capable than I imagined. The worrying point is obvious. The offense and defense connection gap is obvious. When the main force is not there, the substitute lineup has been offensively powered off too frequently. He is 15 points behind in the first quarter. The defensive end cannot stop the Suns' conduction ball, and the rotation lineup needs to be practiced more.

Only Hayes can be used after Ayton is out. If you encounter such strong points in the inside, you may suffer a big loss. You have to find a way to make up for this shortcoming after the season. But then again, there is really no need to rush to hold a meeting, the preseason is a trial and error game.

Vanderbilt's form will recover, Brownie's 8 points and 5 rebounds are considered and improved, and new player Laravia can also make three-pointers. These are pretty good signals. It's a bit too much to be anxious to hold a meeting. At that time, it will be the real chapter to look at the chemistry of Dongzhan combination + Ayton.

See this is what I can eat in the preseason. The Lakers' defense is like paper, and they even put up a big (Maritime Silk Road) and four small (RJ Davis, Brownie, Smith, Kneckett) lineup. Can people put it on? Is it funny? There is no defense at all, and I have been chased and beaten by Booker and Allen. Is it funny?

The organization is like a headless fly. I thought Nico Smith could act as the Lakers' bench bandit, but it turned out to be a big one. There was no offense and no defense. Laravia, three-pointers depend on the feel, and the defense is easy to be fouled. I was really jealous of Dillon on the opposite side; Brownie thought summer had evolved.

As a result, Allen kept chasing and missed the person when switching defense. Booker kept stealing two points from the basket. He couldn't make an attack, and he couldn't get in with too many opportunities. Kneckett had a low presence, was motivated but had limited ability, so he couldn't see what would happen at the moment. After all, the Lakers treated him as a third-D, which was not effective; Hachimura's low post was a surprise, and there was also a steal contributed by the defensive end.

But he still couldn't shoot three-pointers, his defensive habits were not good, and he always missed people; Marie Siss' running and jumping was not affected by weight gain, but his lower limb strength was completely defeated by Richardson; Ayton's performance in the frame protection and rebounding was acceptable, but his independent offensive ability seemed to have disappeared, and he couldn't even make a simple layup; RJ Davis is a small lottery, a bit similar to Goodwin last season, and it remains to be seen; Krock performed well, but except for the frame protection, the protection of rebounds is really not good.
