Double stars shine in Los Angeles

Chapter 158 The Taste of Happiness

Halfway through the second quarter, the Golden State Warriors called a short timeout and carried out personnel rotation. David Lee and Stephen Curry returned to the court, and David Lee and Carl Landry sat inside.

David Lee played and made contributions. First, he successfully grabbed a defensive rebound on the defensive end, and then he hit Josh McRoberts on the offensive end and caused a defensive foul. , The score gap was once again widened to ten minutes away.

Chris Duhon dribbled the ball in the frontcourt to organize the team's offense, looking for breakthrough opportunities.But to be honest, Chris Duhon's breakthrough was really not very good, and he almost made a mistake during the breakthrough.Fortunately, Chris Duhon is a veteran, and there is still no shortage of experience.

Chris Duhon passed the ball to Tracy McGrady who cut through the center before Steve Curry made the tackle.Tracy McGrady, who received the pass, stopped and stepped back for a jumper.The shot was short, the basketball bounced off the front of the rim, and the rebound was picked up by Tracy McGrady's former teammate Carl Landry and passed to Stephen Curry for a fast break.

At present, the two most capable runners on the Lakers are Chris Duhon and Josh McRoberts, but the speed of the latter is obviously slower than that of defenders.Chris Duhon is hot on the heels of Stephen Curry.

Stephen Curry just took off, and Chris Duhon jumped up immediately, and it seemed that he wanted to give Stephen Curry a big hat.However, Stephen Curry's layup after pulling the bar hard in the midair, made Chris Duhon's block fail.

Stephen Curry's wonderful attack made the home fans excited. The DJ on the spot shouted Stephen Curry's name loudly, and the big screen directly above the stadium also replayed Stephen Curry's wonderful attack from all angles. Fast break layup.

The head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, Mike Brown, was also a little anxious when he saw that the score gap on the field was widened again. He glanced at his side of the bench. It felt like he didn't pay much attention to the fact that the situation on the court was not good for the team, which gave him a bit of a headache—"This year's schedule is arranged, these guys must have been thinking about how to go back and spend the holidays. Uh... no I know how my wife has arranged the house..."

"Ahem..." Mike Brown, who realized that he had also started slipping away, coughed in embarrassment, although no one knew what he was thinking just now.

During the time Mike Brown slipped away, the Los Angeles Lakers made another mistake on the offensive end, and Josh McRoberts was intercepted by Carl Landry.Fortunately, this fast break of the Golden State Warriors did not succeed, but an offensive foul occurred.

Mike Brown quickly called a long timeout, and while arranging tactics, he carried out personnel rotation. Li Yifeng, Lin Fengzhe and Kobe Bryant went into battle again.

"Hey! Guys, we need a win, we need a win as a holiday gift to our fans, instead of thinking about what to do tomorrow night! What we need to do now is win tonight! Focus! Focus! Focus on the game!" Mike Brown mobilized the players' emotions, and if this continues, the Los Angeles Lakers are expected to lose by a big margin tonight.

The game continued after the timeout, with the Los Angeles Lakers in possession of the ball.After Chris Duhon quickly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, he handed over the task of organizing the offense to Lin Fengzhe, the de facto main point guard of the team last season.

Golden State guarded Lin Fengzhe with Richard Jefferson.Lin Fengzhe turned his back to Richard Jefferson and hit him against the opponent. He turned around abruptly and threw off most of Richard Jefferson's body, slipped the bottom line and ran towards the basket.David Lee came to cover in time.

Lin Fengzhe did not choose to force the attack, but passed the basketball to Kobe Bryant.After Kobe Bryant made a fake breakthrough with the ball to attract the defense, he passed the basketball to Chris Duhon who was outside the three-point line, and the unguarded Chris Duhon made a three-pointer.All the Los Angeles Lakers need is him to be faithful to his tactical intent and to be able to hit threes when he's open, and he's done a good job of both.

When the half ended, the Los Angeles Lakers managed to cut the score to eight points with Kobe Bryant's three-pointer at the buzzer, which was the smallest point difference of the game so far.

During the intermission, the TV camera switched to the broadcast room, and the guests began to summarize the first half of the game: "In the first half of the game, the performance of the Golden State Warriors was remarkable, especially David Lee And the performance of Stephen Curry. And the entire Golden State Warriors completely seized the opponent's mistakes in the first half and counterattacked many times. This is also the main reason why they can lead the Lakers. As for the Los Angeles Lakers in the The performance in the first half can almost be said to be sleepwalking, probably heading home for Christmas. It is obvious that their attention is not on the game, and many mistakes are caused by carelessness. If in the second half of the game Los Angeles Lakers can focus on the court, it is not difficult to win this game, the key is to see if the team's head coach Mike Brown can get the players excited during halftime."

Obviously, coach Mike Brown still couldn't mobilize his players' desire to win during the halftime break.At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Los Angeles Lakers were beaten by the Golden State Warriors in a [-]-[-] offensive climax, and the score gap returned to [-] points again.

With a face full of helplessness, Mike Brown called the first timeout of the second half. "Defense! Don't let the opponent break through to the inside to score easily. Li Yifeng and Paul, you two pay attention to the protection of the rebound. In just a few minutes, the opponent grabbed three offensive rebounds!" Mike Brown put the rest The three of them also said it again, all emphasizing the issue of defense.

After the timeout, the Los Angeles Lakers' defense has improved, but their offensive shooting percentage is still not very high. The point difference between the two teams has always fluctuated around nine points.Although the Los Angeles Lakers had managed to close the point difference to within five points during the period, they were quickly brought back to their original form by Stephen Curry's three three-pointers.

Stephen Curry's game today is completely crazy. So far, he has made [-] of [-] three-pointers and his hands are hot.The performance of Carl Landry, who came off the bench tonight, was also eye-catching, scoring eight points on four of four shots and six backcourt rebounds.

At the end of the third quarter, the Los Angeles Lakers still trailed the Golden State Warriors by [-] points.The main force of the Los Angeles Lakers remained on the field in the first half of the fourth quarter, but this did not allow the team to narrow the gap.As said before, they all wanted the game to end quickly so they could go home for the holidays.

When the game was about to end with less than 5 minutes left, the head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers directly replaced the main players of the team, announced that he would give up the game, and replaced them with pure substitute players.But what was unexpected was that these fringe players, who usually rarely get the chance to play, showed a different competitive state, and successfully chased the score within ten points.

In order to stabilize the situation, the Golden State Warriors had to replace Stephen Curry and David Lee again, and did not replace the two of them again until 49 seconds left in the game.

In this way, the Golden State Warriors successfully defended their home court when the Los Angeles Lakers had no intention of fighting. Steve Curry was named the most valuable player of the game, making 28 out of [-] shots. Among them, [-] of [-] three-pointers and [-] of [-] free throws scored a total of [-] points. At the same time, he also sent [-] assists, [-] rebounds and [-] steals. The realization is comprehensive.

Another great hero of the Golden State Warriors, David Lee, scored a double-double of 24 points and [-] rebounds in front of the three towers of the Los Angeles Lakers Li Yifeng, Pau Gasol and Yao Ming. The inside lineup that the team is proud of has no place to be ashamed.

After losing to the Golden State Warriors, the Los Angeles Lakers currently have a record of 22 wins and [-] losses, ranking first in the Western Conference and second in the league.Ranked first in the league is the Miami Heat. So far they have only lost three games. Not only in the East, this result is also the best in the league. Judging from the current form, the Miami Heat will It will be the biggest obstacle for the Los Angeles Lakers to defend their championship this year.

Here I have to talk about the San Antonio Spurs in the West. The troika of the Spurs is still stable. Although Manu Ginobili was not in a good state at the beginning of the season, he quickly adjusted. come over.The most exaggerated of the troika is Tim Duncan, who averaged 18.9 points per game, 3.5 points more than last season; averaged 10.1 rebounds per game, 1.1 more than last season, which is simply monstrous.

After the game against the Golden State Warriors, the team of the Los Angeles Lakers took a special plane and flew back to Los Angeles overnight after the post-game press conference. A rare thing.

When Lin Fengzhe returned home, looking at the living room where the decorations had already been hung and the green Christmas tree, a smile crept up the corner of his mouth unconsciously.Looking at the decorations placed under the Christmas tree, Lin Fengzhe smiled knowingly. This was prepared by Taylor Swift in advance, because she said that she wanted to decorate the Christmas tree with Lin Fengzhe.

Lin Fengzhe walked into the bedroom lightly in pajamas, looked at Taylor Swift who was still sleeping with a faint smile, a feeling of happiness rose in his heart, and gently kissed Taylor Swift on the forehead , and then lay down next to Taylor Swift, gently hugged him and fell asleep...
