NBA bench saves national team

"It's over. The Lakers won the game without any risk. If I remember correctly, this is their third game this season and their opponents stalemate until the end to decide the winner."

"The first time was against the Pacers, the second time was against the Bulls, and the third time was against the Heat."

Barkley said in a deep voice, shaking his head with emotion.

Watching a close game against the Lakers is really hard.

"This also reflects from the side the strength of the Lakers this season, even stronger than last season!"

"Although there were giants such as Louis Williams and Holiday on the bench last season, the team's chemical reaction was not so good, and these young players who joined this season have established a good relationship with the team. chemistry, and they've grown and improved enough."

"Although it can't help the team at the critical moment, but in terms of the team's overall strength and lineup configuration, I think this Lakers team may be the strongest year in its history, even surpassing the showtime era and The era of the OK group back then."

O'Neill said so, with a touch of emotion in his tone.

After hearing this, Barkley looked at Fatty Ao in surprise.

You must know that O'Neal was the core player of the OK combination back then, and he was the well-deserved boss of the team.

Since he said so, it can be seen that the strength of this Lakers team has been fully respected and respected by O'Neal.

"So are you optimistic that the Lakers will build another dynasty like the OK combination back then?"

Barkley asked, his tone also very serious.

"It's not just a dynasty with three consecutive championships. I think that with the potential of the current Lakers team, it is possible to achieve four consecutive championships, or even five consecutive championships."

After O'Neill said this, he let out a long breath and seemed to be a little more relaxed.

Even he himself didn't expect that he would say such a thing. After all, in the history of the NBA, except for the Celtics who won 8 consecutive championships, there has never been a team that has achieved the great achievement of 4 consecutive championships.

Even Michael Jordan, the "God of Basketball" who ruled the league throughout the 90s, failed to do so.

Of course, if Jordan did not choose to retire after his first three consecutive championships, it is very likely that he can also accomplish such a great achievement, reaching 1 consecutive championships, 4 consecutive championships or even 5 consecutive championships.

It's just that Jordan, who won three consecutive championships that year, has rarely had an opponent in the basketball field, and the death of his father also dealt a great blow to him.

He decided to retire and play baseball in order to fulfill his father's long-cherished wish.

What a waste of two years!

If Jordan hadn't retired in those two years, how many more honors and achievements would have been made?

unimaginable!

Of course Jordan is in the past tense.

Now the league's most promising team to create a dynasty is the Lakers.

"Are you sure? You know that this season is the 18th year of Kobe's career. Do you think Kobe can still maintain the level of a superstar? His performance this season has declined, and his dominance on both ends of the offense and defense. decline."

Barkley questioned.

After all, the basis for the Lakers to win the championship is the superstar combination of Qin Feng and Kobe. If Kobe's competitive ability declines rapidly due to his age, it will be a very big loss to the team's strength.

"I know that Kobe's state will decline, but Kobe's performance at the critical moment is still at the top level of the league, and the current group of young players of the Lakers is also growing rapidly. I believe that in one or two seasons, they Will grow into the core force of the Lakers and become the mainstay on the road to the championship."

"Of course, it all depends on Qin Feng."

"As long as Qin Feng is in the Lakers, then the Lakers are a championship-level team. As long as the management does not operate indiscriminately and assigns Qin Feng an All-Star player and several top 3D players, then I think the Lakers It is possible to create a dynasty with four or even five consecutive championships."

O'Neill said, full of confidence in this.

After hearing this, Barkley couldn't help but nodded, agreeing with O'Neill's words, because of Qin Feng, he felt that everything was possible.

This Chinese player has such a convincing charm.

Since entering the league, he has created so many miracles that it's hard to believe it or not.

The two chatted for a few more words before ending the commentary for the game.

Then hurried off work and rushed home for Christmas.

Although the game was extremely exciting, they will not forget that today is Christmas, and their families are still waiting for them to spend Christmas together.

the other side.

The two teams came to the post-match interview session.

Lakers interview room.

"Qin, what do you think of the victory in this game? Do you think this is the most difficult game the Lakers have won so far this season?"

a reporter asked.

"A game that really got me interested! We played the Heat all game and it was the end of the game, so it was really tough."

"Although it was difficult, fortunately we won the game and continued the winning streak."

Qin Feng grinned and said.

"Qin Feng, you scored a triple-double with 50+ points in this game. This is the first time you have achieved such a stat this season. What do you think?"

a reporter asked.

"It can only be said that the performance is average. If I want to, I can achieve a triple-double with 60+ points, or even a triple-double with 70+ points."

Qingfeng shrugged and said, his tone was very indifferent.

In terms of statistics, he never sets an upper limit for himself. No matter what kind of statistics he plays, it is reasonable for him. This is his confidence.

"Kobe, you played nearly 40 minutes in this game, which is the longest game this season. How do you feel now?"

a reporter asked.

"I think every cell in my body is full of exhaustion. I'm not even interested in spending Christmas now. I just want to go home and sleep and repair my old body."

"I have to say that I am indeed old. I must admit this. After all, I am a veteran who has been in the league for 18 years. I can't compare with those young players physically."

Kobe said, shaking his head helplessly.

Even if he wants to be strong all his life, he has to lower his high head in front of the years.

Kobe once tried to use crazy training to ensure his physical condition and competitive level, but later he found that this was not feasible.

No matter how hard you try, your body will give honest feedback.

At that time, Kobe accepted the aging of the body!

The reporters nodded one after another. It was obvious that this game was already a high-load operation for Kobe's body.

They could see Kobe's exhaustion visibly.

After all, time is not forgiving!
