The rise of basketball legends

"51 points, Chen scored 50+ again, 50 points is like a threshold, players who have never scored 50 points cannot be called a super scorer in the true sense, but this guy Chen scored 50 points like drinking Easy as water," Barkley concluded.

"You'd be amazed at how this guy's scoring went up, the guy only scored 11 points in the first half, but his scoring stats went up to 51 by the end of the game! omg! Can this guy do magic? "Kenny Smith blew with a smile.

Chen Yan stole the limelight tonight, and he became the focus of the commentator's post-match discussion.

Apart from Chen Yan, only two Suns scored in double figures tonight, Stoudemire's 16 points and Azubuike's 13 points.

科比拿下了全场第二高的33分，不过是用近乎疯狂的32次出手换来的，科比全场32投12中，其中三分球8中3，罚球8中6。

Kobe had a bad hand tonight, but he had to make a shot, because his teammates were even offline, and there was always someone to stand up and digest the ball.

Chen Yan's shooting percentage tonight was not over 50%, but this was a hindrance in the first half. After entering the second half, Chen Yan turned on the high-efficiency mode.

The Lakers held a press conference first, and the air pressure of the people present was low. The Christmas game is the most watched game in the United States. It would be embarrassing to lose to an old enemy in this kind of game.

Kobe said mercilessly: "I can't lose in this way. We didn't lose to the opponent in this game. We defeated ourselves. The poor shooting percentage made us farther and farther away from victory. Every time in this game Individuals didn't perform well, including myself."

Kobe gritted his back teeth when he spoke. It can be seen how angry and unwilling he is. Now Kobe still puts the paper cutout of Chen Yan’s championship in his wallet. He vowed not to take it away until the Lakers won the championship. .

Kobe spoke very hard, and Phil Jackson helped to smooth things over: "We started this season very well, and we started to lose more games in December, but this does not mean that the players have slackened. , Losing is a very normal phenomenon, what we need to do is to rest and adjust."

Fisher, who participated in the press conference together, said helplessly: "Chen's performance was too good. He was like a different player in the second half. We just couldn't score, but Chen kept going crazy. This game was not the best. The real Lakers, next time we meet we will do our best to win."

When the Lakers held a press conference, the generals of the Suns had just come out of the bathroom. Stoudemire and Nash went to the physical therapist first. Their backs were not very comfortable. Chen Yan just tied a few pieces of ice on his knees and sat down on his own. In his seat, he patiently answered all questions from all reporters.

Some reporters left after asking questions, and quickly filled in the rest. Many questions were repetitive, but Chen Yan always answered calmly and earnestly, without the slightest impatience.

This is professionalism. Chen Yan has always had a good relationship with the media, which is very similar to his predecessor Dayao.

"Chen, after winning the Christmas game, the Suns have won 17 consecutive victories. This is a brand new record in team history. Will you talk about the winning streak in the locker room?" the reporter asked.

"Is this a new team record? Wow, no one told me this before, it's a great feeling to break a record without knowing it, we'll enjoy the moment, but it won't be a burden to us, the streak is not What we focus on. For us, the only purpose of the regular season is to improve the team, prepare for the playoffs, and get home field advantage in the playoffs. .”

The reporter then asked: The Suns this season seem to be stronger than last year. Now you are experiencing a long winning streak. The team's goal this season must be to defend the championship.

Chen Yan stared into the reporter's eyes and asked repeatedly: "Why not? Why not? People always have to keep improving. Even if we have no room for improvement, at least we can't regress from last season, right?"

What Chen Yan said was so coquettish that the reporter was amused.

"Chen, what made you look so different in the first half and the second half?" the next reporter asked.

"During the intermission, I reviewed my performance. I found that many shots were short in the first half, so in the second half I deliberately increased my shots. I found that shots from some angles did not feel good. Deliberately avoiding those spots, I try to adjust myself as much as possible, you know, I was never the kind of player who would sit and wait for death."

"But some fans said that your outburst was because Taylor Swift came to the scene to watch the game."

This time it was Chen Yan's turn to be amused by the reporter: "Hahaha, it seems that I will let Taylor watch the game every night in the future, so that I will surpass Jordan in a few seasons."

"Chen, many people predict that you will be the favorite candidate for MVP this year. What do you think about this?"

"I am very happy to be in the ranks of the MVP discussion. This is the highest level of personal honor, but the schedule is not over halfway, it is too early to talk about these. I must focus on the game instead of thinking about the honor that has not yet been obtained."

"Do you think another Chinese player, Yao, has a chance to win the MVP?" the reporter asked.

"He is definitely an MVP-level player. He is the best big man in the league in my opinion. He is currently in a transition period, so his statistics have declined, but he believes that he can adapt to any style of play and tactics. He is very clever."

As soon as Chen Yan finished speaking, the reporter immediately asked: "What about running and bombing? Can running and bombing Yao also adapt?"

Chen Yan patted his forehead: "Oh! This is a good question. I don't think it will be difficult for him, as long as he loses another 30 catties."

"Hahaha!" The reporter was once again amused by Chen Yan.

After the interview, Azubuike rushed to Chen Yan's side to ask for Chen Yan's latest generation of combat boots [Yan II]. Azubuike is a fan of Chen Yan's signature series of combat boots [Yan].

Chen Yan seemed to have known for a long time that Azubuike would come to ask for shoes, so he took out a shoe box from the cabinet and handed it to him with a smile: "Kelana, this is your size."

Azubuike was very surprised. He thought that Chen Yan would give him shoes, but he didn't expect Chen Yan to prepare a pair of his shoes so thoughtfully.

"Thanks, Chen, brother, I love you!" Azubuike said with a smile.

"It's less meaty, Kelanna, I remember you haven't signed the sneaker contract yet." Chen Yan patted Azubuike.

Azubuike shook his head, saying that no sneaker brand was looking for him.

Chen Yan went straight to the point: "If you want to sign with Li Ning, sign with my independent studio, we will supply you with unlimited competition shoes, and I will let the team negotiate with you when signing the contract, the amount will definitely not be lower than the market price. "

"Really...really?" Azubuike said excitedly.

"Of course, if you play better, we can cooperate further. I mean, do you want to bring your own signature sneakers?"

After hearing this, Azu's mouth grew wide open. He never expected to have his own signature sneakers in his life.

For Chen Yan, signing Azubuike was not a difficult decision. Azubuike averaged 16.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game this season. He is a strong contender for the best sixth man. The exposure around him will be high, and his future commercial value will continue to grow.

As for the signature sneakers, it’s not that Chen Yan is drawing cakes. After all, even Battier and Hayes can have signature shoes, why can’t Azubuike have one?

After leaving the arena, Chen Yan drove Taylor home.

Chen Yan was in a good mood after winning the Christmas game. While driving, he and Taylor chatted all the way, from basketball to music.

Taylor Swift is a love brain, she feels extremely happy at this moment, if she can, she is willing to sit in Chen Yan's co-pilot and talk to him like this.

When Chen Yan wanted to go home quickly, he made an appointment with Dayao to play World of Warcraft tonight and download a dungeon together.

After returning home and parking the car, Chen Yan quickly went upstairs to turn on the computer. As soon as he went online and connected to Mai Chenyan, he heard a "squeak" sound of the door opening behind him.

Chen Yan turned his head and saw that his nosebleed almost spewed out.

Taylor Swift changed into a set of red underwear and stockings at some point.

Taylor Swift is a man of action, she decided to reward Chen Yan and she would definitely reward her.

Looking at the bright red color on Taylor Swift, Chen Yan felt the joy of Christmas for the first time.

"Xiao Yan, tonight's Christmas battle was really good, and I will be in such a state when I brush the dungeon later, I must stop the monsters!" Dayao's voice came from Mai's other end.

"Dayao, I seem to have something to do tonight, so I won't come here."

"what's up?"

"It's urgent."

"Urgent matter?" Dayao glanced at the clock on the wall, what is the urgent matter in the middle of the night.

Looking at the computer screen again, Chen Yan's game avatar has turned gray.

"Hey, hey! Don't leave me alone to do dungeons!"

Dayao roared in despair, but Chen Yan was already offline and couldn't hear him.

In the room, Taylor hooked the door with her foot, then gently closed the curtains, and walked in front of Chen Yan charmingly, the reward time was up.
