After Nash left the Suns, the team completely fell into a strange cycle.

No matter how hard the team plays, they almost never win...

In the past few seasons, they and the Lakers have become strong contenders for the 14th and 15th places in the Western Conference...

But this is a brand new season. Booker is still very young, and the team must build the team around him!

Although this game was held at Staples Arena, Kobe Bryant did not come, which disappointed the fans at the scene.

Walton: "The team is now led by me. At the beginning of the season, everyone will relax and play in the zone. Especially in the preseason..."

The Lakers players are no stranger to Walton.

Since he was a Lakers player, both the team's management and players have had a good impression of him.

But the games in the previous two seasons have cast a shadow on the team.

It is impossible for the team to immediately return to its previous state, at least that's what most of the players think.

Today's Staples Center in Los Angeles has become a place where these players wearing purple and gold jerseys are "living and enjoying life".

There is no shortage of stars, no shortage of entertainment places, everything is there. But what is lacking most in these seasons is victory.

The young players didn't care, just like in the playoffs in previous years, Kobe was the only one playing alone while the other four watched.

There is nothing lacking here, but there is a lack of players. There is a lack of people who really play for victory!

The Suns' lineup this season is still good. Li Feng was lucky enough in the previous two seasons.

Then this season should be the time when his luck comes to an end.

Here in the West, either your team is too strong! Or it is just struggling like other teams in the West.

The Lakers players feel that the only thing that makes them feel brand new is that the team has changed a lot of training facilities. What gives them confidence this season is that Kobe Bryant is still signed.

Although I don't know how long he can last this season, he may just take a paid leave like Nash did.

There is also this young man named Li Feng. Except for the Lakers who met Li Feng during a trial training two years ago, the Lakers have rarely seen him the rest of the time.

Although this Asian player is rarely seen, there are legends about him outside...

The Suns have already announced their lineup for today's game. They are Georges, Bender, Warren, Booker and Barbosa!

Two newcomers, Georges and Bender, started today, while Barbosa looked at the Lakers with a half-smile.

I originally thought it would be quite miserable for me to return to Phoenix from the Warriors. But I didn’t expect Li Feng to be even more miserable than him!

It's really about money...but Li Feng does earn a lot...

Barbosa's salary this season is 4 million US dollars. Li Feng is three times more than him and has another 1 million US dollars...

He is now a Lakers player with an annual salary of tens of millions!

Some time ago, the Internet was still hotly discussing the Lakers management situation. It seems that the Lakers are really crazy!

Not long after, the starting lineup for the Lakers also came out, followed by Luol Deng, Randle, Ingram, Li Feng and Nick Young!

When Li Feng appeared at Staples wearing a purple and gold uniform, the fans went crazy!

The shouts at the scene suddenly became several times louder!

Wharton looked back at the enthusiastic fans with satisfaction. When the camera came to Wharton's side, the atmosphere at the scene had dropped a bit.

But it seems that there are indeed many female fans who like Wharton.

In his second year in the NBA, Walton became the head coach of the team. It was really like a dream.

Looking at Li Feng on the court, he and Li Feng have now become hot topics in Los Angeles!

Of course, Kobe Bryant is still hotly discussed on the Internet. Everyone hopes that the Black Mamba can play on the court again instead of leaving with pay.

Booker: "It's so enviable. Li Feng. When can I get a championship ring?"

Li Feng: "Join the Los Angeles Lakers at a low price and form a team with me~"

Booker: "..."

Barbosa: "How is that possible? Whoever goes to the Lakers will be unlucky! Don't you believe it, Li Feng? Just wait!

Have you seen the Warriors’ style? If they win the championship, they won’t want us anymore!”

Li Feng: "Their team needs to continue to strengthen. This is their own business. It has nothing to do with me."

Barbosa: "It has nothing to do with you? Who won the championship by fighting on the court?! There is hard work without credit, right? Can you just fire a player so casually?"

Li Feng: "Then what do you think?"

Barbosa: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Booker: "What Li Feng means is that almost everyone in the league has a glorious past.

But when you get here, after you get to the NBA, what the team really cares about is that the entire league does not have more than 300 people. So this is normal. Come on, my hands are itching."

Li Feng was a little disappointed. He originally wanted to get some more embarrassing points from Barbosa and Booker, but Booker immediately put an end to it.

Now for Li Feng, there are a lot of unknowns about the Lakers, and he also has similar points to the media analysis.

That is this season. Once you get the initial data, you won't have to worry about finding a new home next season.

Li Feng was thinking about the game starting. Georges was the first to get the basketball.

The current management of the Lakers, I don’t know what they are going through. In short, the Lakers have already started this season.

Amid the disappointment of the fans at the scene, Booker got the basketball.

He immediately started looking around, but in the end he couldn't find Kobe.

This season Kobe gave Devin a lot of recognition. After many years, Kobe is already older.

Although many of his fans are unwilling to admit this, the fact is that young people like Devin, who watched Kobe play games back then, have already come to the NBA.

Many players grew up watching Kobe Bryant's games...naturally they regard Kobe Bryant as their idol!

But now that he can be appreciated by the Black Mamba after coming to the league, Booker's confidence is naturally even higher!

In this case, it would be a joke to say that he has no ambition. Booker wants to become a star guard in the NBA!

Holding the ball and confronting Li Feng, the two struggled for almost 12 seconds. Booker passed Li Feng and then scored a jumper!

Li Feng is extremely leisurely at this time~ Although he looks very serious, basically everyone can see that Li Feng is not concentrating on the game.

Li Feng didn't use the skill pack today, he just acted in his true colors.

As Walton said, the most important thing they have to do is warm up. Nothing else matters.

After Li Feng met Wharton, the two had a lot to talk about. They were just like brothers.

As Walton and Kobe said during a recent chat, he will have "three things to do" when a new official takes office.

So for the team, this young and handsome head coach still has his own ideas.

Mainly in training, the intensity will be increased.

Try to give the players a different look in the new season!

But now these Lakers players have discovered it.

Are Li Feng and Wharton related in some way...for example, a distant cousin, a grandson of a distant seventh uncle, etc...

Otherwise, how could it be that as soon as Li Feng came here, he immediately felt like the second-in-command of the Lakers?

You know, Clarkson used to be the second-in-command of the team!

Booker couldn't find Kobe after hitting the long 2-pointer, so he simply ran back.

The first game of the preseason has officially started!

Ingram carefully asked Li Feng with his eyes whether he should pass the ball immediately.

Li Feng: "No need, just show your performance, score more points, and wait for the regular season to get enough playing time~"

Randall: "..."

Nick Young: "..."

Is that so generous? Ingram looked at Li Feng gratefully, and then was directly guarded by Warren in the frontcourt...

Wharton covered his face.

Li Feng also sighed in his heart.

What kind of player does Ingram belong to? He played very well when he was at Duke University, but since arriving in the NBA, he has been unable to perform well.

This is a memory from Li Feng's previous life. After all, Ingram was just selected by the Lakers with the second overall pick this season!

Ingram: "Brother, I screwed up..."

Li Feng: "Who is your teacher...Duke? Ouch, ouch~ I've been looking at other teams' information recently."

He immediately shook hands with this alumnus. Li Feng was annoyed that he didn’t think about it?

Undoubtedly, Ingram is also an excellent player under coach K.

After coming to the Lakers, I met former teammate Ennis and former assistant coach Walton, who is also a brother. Now I like to mention Duke alumnus~
