Chapter 171 West Coast Road Trip

"This game can be said to be full of ups and downs, ups and downs, which is a test of the heart capacity of Lakers fans and Bobcats fans. How does Director Zhang evaluate the overall situation of this game?" Yu Jia asked with a smile.

"If you look at the pre-match rankings, one is No. 12 in the East and No. [-] in the West. This score is no problem. After all, there is still a gap between the two teams in terms of record and short-term performance.

After this loss, the Lakers' rare two-game winning streak also came to an end for the Bobcats. This month, they have 7 losses and 3 wins. More losses than wins. "

Director Zhang took the conversation and sighed, and then continued, "D'Antoni's tactics are not suitable for the Lakers at present. The Twin Towers also have many problems. The Lakers still have a long way to go if they want to get on the right track."

"Yes, the Lakers have reorganized the Big Four this season, and the ups and downs of their record have also attracted the attention of many fans. But in this game, the performance of the Bobcats and Chen Xiao is still worth looking forward to." Yu Jia talked about the topic Turn back to the Lynx.

"Chen Xiao had 18 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks in the half, and he performed equally well in the second half, scoring 37 points, 17 rebounds and 5 blocks in total." Yu Jia loudly broadcast Chen Xiao's data, and after a short pause, he was reminded by the director, "OK , the reporter from the Mold Country over there wants to interview Chen Xiao, let's listen to this interview."

……

As the best player in the game, in the star-studded Staples, Chen Xiao naturally couldn't refuse the live interview of ESPN, the broadcaster of the game.

"Chen, led the Charlotte Bobcats to victory against the Los Angeles Lakers, which had won two championships in the past 4 years. It also ended the Bobcats' three-game losing streak against the Lakers at the Staples Arena. How do you feel about this?" ESPN reporter Sommer handed the microphone to Chen Xiao.

What the hell, this sounds like a superior feeling.Moreover, Chen Xiao also read news before the game that the Bobcats were considered "Lakers killers" when the Lakers were most competitive in the championship a few years ago. In the 08-09 season, the Bobcats even double-killed the Lakers in the regular season.

Chen Xiao looked at the reporter's badge, Sommer, Chen Xiao read it silently.This Sommer almost put a Lakers fan on his head.

However, in Staples, and the purple and gold giants with 4 years and 2 championships are indeed amazing, and there are many lakes like wind and rain. It is not surprising that Sommer, as an ESPN live interview reporter who appeared at the Lakers' home court, is biased towards the Lakers.

And journalists are meant to be conversational.

Chen Xiao replied calmly: "I respect this Lakers team. They retained the internal and external core during the second consecutive championship, and introduced Dwight Howard and Stephen Nash. They are the most watched team in the league. Very competitive.

Although we are No. [-] in the Eastern Conference and ranked high in the league, I feel very honored to beat such a star-studded Lakers team. After finishing speaking, Chen Xiao grinned with a very standard smile.

Listening to Chen Xiao saying that the Bobcats are number one in the Eastern Conference, the fans couldn't help but make a comparison with the Lakers. Uh, the Western Conference is [-]th and fourth from the bottom. Here, it seems that the Bobcats beat the Lakers is a common thing.

Sommer, who understood Chen Xiao's cryptic counterattack, couldn't help but stand up straighter, and decided not to be a monster, so as not to offend the future stars, no, the current stars, it's better not to offend too much, hey, just change the bragging, and the same can be done Drive the topic.

索默微笑询问道：“这场比赛你的出色表现令人惊艳，要知道你面对的可是3连DPOY魔兽霍华德，可伱还是拿到了生涯第五次35+15，第一次35+15+5。

It also once again replaced Shaq O'Neal as the youngest record holder in history with 35 points, 15 rebounds and 5 blocked shots. It is worth mentioning that Dwight Howard was also among the first three young players to complete this data record.

Tell me about your performance this time, Chen, how did Howard put you under defensive pressure? "

Seeing that the reporter finally spoke normally, Chen Xiao felt a lot more at ease. As for what he said, he still compared himself with Howard.

What's the point of bullying old people and children?If you want to fight, you can fight Warcraft.Although it is a Zijin Happy Beast with a back injury that will soon degenerate into sparks.

"35+15+5? Really, I know I got some points, some rebounds, and a few blocks on the defensive end, but I don't know that the data in this game is quite neat, with mathematical on the beauty.

I am very happy that my performance can help the team win. Kemba, Ramon and other teammates are also continuing to struggle.

As for Dwight, he is an outstanding defender. The achievement of 3 consecutive DPOYs is astonishing. He and Daben are both my predecessors on the defensive end.Today I feel good. After the game, I chatted with Dwight about today's free throws. We are quite satisfied with our free throws today. "

Chen Xiao was rambling on and on, and the interview was over at that time.

Chen Xiao, who had just finished the game and was not particularly tired, suddenly felt tired after the interview. Chen Xiao, who played for almost 40 minutes in this match, was exhausted.

……

And just as Chen Xiao was feeling tired after being excited about the interview, the enthusiastic discussion about the Bobcats-Lakers game after the game had just reached its climax.

"Seven consecutive 7+ games, averaging 30 points per game so far this season, the 29.6-year-old Kobe is still at his peak!"

"Warcraft, who went to Angel City, has declined in scoring and rebounding so far this season. Can he really help the Lakers and Kobe win the championship?"

"Warcraft's 15+15 performance is acceptable, but it pales in comparison to Chen Xiao. Is the number one center in the league likely to give up?"

"A certain Lakers fan said that according to his observations, Chen Xiao is a loyal Kobe fan. The Zijin Lakers, who have the tradition of a great center, are expected to bring the Orient Beast to the West Coast in the future, succeeding Kobe as the new banner of the Lakers."

Warcraft, who was still grinning, couldn't laugh anymore after seeing these news, Kobe, the pinnacle!Dwight, slide down!In Kobe's state, according to the succession arguments of the media fans who just came to Los Angeles, he has to receive the year of the monkey?And now there is no succession, compared with Chen Xiao, he seems to be Mrs. Niu.

But after thinking about it, why is he not as good as Chen Xiao in statistics?Could it be that Chen Xiao is stronger than himself?No!Because Chen Xiao is the absolute core of the Bobcats, the Bobcats are playing around Chen Xiao, Chen Xiao wants to catch the ball in the low post, and the guard on the opposite side would rather pass the ball in place after running two laps.

And what about myself?Thinking of catching the ball in the low post depends on Kobe's face. He takes 10 shots in a game, and Kobe takes 20 shots in a game, killing himself twice. Regardless of this game, he scored another 30 points. How did he get it?Relying on 24 shots in exchange, hum, these 24 shots are for myself, can I not get 30 points?

Moreover, Chen Xiao has such a good attitude, although he likes to joke, but he speaks so nicely, let's ignore whether the number one center is the number one or not, let's talk about becoming the number one star of the Lakers first.

Howard was full of thoughts, but decided to continue to implement the goals he set after he decided to come to Los Angeles.

"Hey, Dwight, it's the agreed party, hurry up." When Howard was thinking, Ebanks, who saw Howard staring at the phone motionlessly, greeted him.

"Oh oh, here we come, hehe, GOGOGO." Interrupted by his friend Ebanks after coming to the Lakers, Warcraft remembered the big practice game that had been arranged for the rest of the past few days, and suddenly threw away his ambitions. Behind his head, a smile immediately covered his dark face.

……

Howard practiced hard and never forgot to improve his ball-handling skills. At the same time, Xiao Chen and the Bobcats continued to embark on a road trip to the West after leaving Staples.

After 48 minutes of fierce battle with the Lakers, the Bobcats came to Phoenix, Arizona surrounded by desert the next day.

On the road before the game, the Bobcats players were still complacent, discussing how the Lakers player Antawn Jamison showed his blindness after the game, intending to turn to the bright.

作为98年的5号秀，生涯目前场均接近19分的贾米森自然不是泛泛之辈，上个赛季还在骑士已经31岁的贾米森场均还能拿到17.2分。

In the summer, Jamison's contract expired. As a small forward with full size and ability, the Bobcats, who only had a second-round rookie Middleton at the small forward position, naturally coveted him.

Jamison has a lot of connections with Charlotte and the Bobcats. Jamison attended high school in Charlotte, and his university is also in North Carolina. He is Jordan’s junior, and now he still lives in Charlotte. He has come to Los Angeles , whose 4 children are still living and studying in Charlotte, and did not stay with them in the school district room in Los Angeles.

Since there is such a connection, the Bobcats are also eager for talents. Jordan called his junior specifically and said that his hometown team needs you. We have Chen Xiao, Henderson, Walker, and me. If you come, we can work together. Big deal.

But at that time, the outside world’s expectations for the Bobcats were only a fringe team in the playoffs, and it was very likely that they would not make it to the playoffs. This is different from his career in Golden State, Washington, and Cleveland. Ring's veteran's demands did not match, so he had to politely decline the senior's invitation.

After all, there is the thigh of the wealthy Lakers to hug, who will come to Charlotte.

Kobe, Gasol, Howard, Nash, these 4 giants are not better than the 4 listed by your Danzi?
But it is regarded as the answer to solve the problem of the Zijin Army's substitute firepower. Jamison has not been easy in the Lakers this season.Jamison, who also scored 33 points and 12 rebounds this season, can be a side attack after Kobe.

But the result was that Chen Xiao didn't see Jamison for a second on the court. At that time, Chen Xiao thought that Jamison was injured or something. After all, the Lakers had so many wounded soldiers.

The result is not, that is, D'Antoni didn't let Jamison play.The person who averaged 17 points per game last season has not played much for the Lakers this season. He could play 20 minutes at the beginning of the season, but only a few minutes recently. Gasol came back in the battle with the Bobcats. That's even worse.

If you want to talk about the decline, the shooting percentage is 46, and the three-pointer is 36. It should be passable, right?

After the game, Jamison, who saw the demeanor of Wang Shi, who is currently ranked No. [-] in his hometown in the East, said that he regretted it, and now he regrets it.

When the reporter asked, if the Bobcats needed you, would you still play for your hometown team?Jamison replied: "If they still want me to go back to my hometown, I will definitely listen. My body can still play for many years. If they need me, I will wear the Bobcats uniform without reservation."

When the Bobcats players were immersed in the beautiful atmosphere of the king’s westward expedition, eating pots of pulp wherever he went, and the generals watching the wind, they came to Phoenix. That night, the cats were welcomed by the sun wholeheartedly. It became black charcoal.

The Suns made 6 of 3 three-pointers in the first quarter, but the Bobcats still had a slight lead in the score. Walker and Chen Xiao both played well, and the situation was stable.

But back in the second quarter, the situation took a turn for the worse. The Bobcats only scored 4 sports goals in a single quarter. Chen Xiao, Walker 10, Mu Ziyi, and Chen Xiao almost lived on the free throw line in a single quarter, making [-] free throws in a single quarter.

Chen Xiao, who feels good at free throws, did not disappoint himself and the team in terms of the number of hits. He made 10 of 7 free throws, which is higher than the season's free throw percentage, right?

But except for Chen Xiao, Walker, and Mullens who scored and scored, Mi Dou, Henderson, Gordon, and Sessions all had no accuracy, no accuracy in the true sense, and swallowed zero eggs.

The Bobcats are in no shape, but the fireworks of the Suns are even more vigorous. Marbury's cousin, Telfair, who has rolled over 8 teams in his 5-year career, scored 3 three-pointers in a single quarter and directly gave the Bobcats a full shot. header bag.

Chen Xiao doesn't know Telfair very well, but Chen Xiao knows PJ Tucker in the Suns, and Tucker from the bench lineup also scored 10 points in a single quarter.

At halftime, the Suns already had a lead of nearly 10 points.

During the intermission, the Bobcats players still feel like this, is it really a fart?The Lakers can beat us by 18 points, what if we beat the Suns by 10 points, it's less than 10 points.

But the premise of getting back the score is to be able to limit the opponent's offensive.

In the second half, Shannon Brown, the former Lakers player who made Kobe give an emoji, scored 5 three-pointers alone, and the team was exactly twice that, with 10 three-pointers in the half, allowing the cats to return home in the desert. .

The final result of the game was the Bobcats 110:121 Suns, losing by 11 points.

The overall offensive performance of the Bobcats is actually not bad. Is the overall shooting rate of nearly 5% bad? Not bad. The three-pointer is also 10 of 6. The shots are few but accurate. Walker 20+5+5, Chen Xiao 25 ​​points, 13 rebounds and 4 The assist performance is also comprehensive.

But the Suns also scored 6 three-pointers with 17% of their three-pointers, and the Bobcats could only defeat Phoenix on back-to-back game days.

In the last game against the Lakers, I felt that the Bobcats limited the Lakers' three-point shooting to less than one-third of Dunlap's rare dreams.

In fact, it's just because the Lakers are too iron?

The Bobcats are still that cat, the Bobcats who can't defend against three-pointers.The perimeter group with short stature and defensive gap is simply a sight on the opposite side.

That is to say, Howard has been obsessed with training recently and didn't watch this game. Otherwise, Master Huo would have something to say, why did the Lakers lose?You Kobe shot two long points there, three-pointers, you just hit two, and the shooting percentage was less than 4%. Shannon Brown made 5 shots, and you Kobe only hit 2. Whoever loses will be blamed. Is it self-explanatory?

The Bobcats fans who turned on the TV to watch the game on time, looked at the All-Mold Aviation Center arena where the sun was pouring down three points, all said that it still had the same flavor, even though it was in Phoenix, but it was still a pure Charlotte flavor.

After the loss to the Suns, the Bobcats ended their short two-game winning streak just like the previous wins over the Warriors and Clippers after losing to the Eagles. The current record is 19 wins and 6 losses, still ahead of the 18 wins and 7 losses that won the New York Derby earlier in the day. The Knicks and the Heat with 16 wins and 6 losses rank first in the Eastern Conference.

……

Leaving Phoenix, Bobcats and his party returned to California, this time the destination is not Los Angeles, but San Francisco.

On the way, Chen Xiao received a call from Meizi. Chen Xiao, who was playing with his laptop at his own place, didn't rush to answer the phone. He opened the NBA schedule data to see the recent performance of the Hornets and Meizi.

While connected, browse at the same time.

On December 12, the Hornets-Warriors, the Hornets lost a small loss, Anthony Davis had 18 points, 15 rebounds and 16 steals.

Understood, 15+15, Master Mei's performance is good, this is the level of Master Huo.

"This is Chen Xiao, how can I help you? Mr. 15+16+4." Chen Xiao spoke in a flat tone while tapping the mouse.

"Ahem, the performance is so-so. I didn't mean to say that. Just watch the match between the Warriors and the King." Davis, who knew that Chen Xiao would definitely read the data, was a little embarrassed to be called that by Chen Xiao. After explaining, he explained why he came .

oh?Thick eyebrows besides this, what other medicines are there in the gourd?Chen Xiao looked at the match schedule.

Speaking of it, the Bobcats and the Warriors are still very close during the recent schedule. The two teams are back-to-back and back-to-back every other day.

The Warriors Hornets, the Bobcats and the Lakers, and on the same day, the Bobcats lost to the Suns, the Warriors also lost to the California Derby, and lost to the Sacramento Kings. Back to back at a time.

Pulling his attention away from the coincidence of the schedule, Chen Xiao clicked on the game where the Warriors lost to the Kings and took a closer look.

The Warriors have a small loss, Curry is 30+, David Lee is close to 30, Jack is close to 30, and Barnes and Green in the same class did not perform well.

On the king's side, the cousin's overall shooting percentage was not good enough to make 18 of 14 free throws, and the little black bean Brooks performed brilliantly with 20+.

After searching around, Chen Xiao saw a familiar name and understood.

"The Beast" Thomas Robinson played 5 minutes, made 3 of 1 shots, and only scored 4 points and 1 rebound.

Chuck Hayes, Haiye played more minutes than him, 18 minutes.

This thick eyebrow is quite vindictive. Thomas still remembers the provocation before the draft.

But as the No. 5 pick and a high lottery pick, how did Thomas Robinson get mixed up like this? What happened to the momentum that he thought he should be second in the list?

Taking a closer look, T. Robinson has never started in the current 23 games. He averaged less than 16 points in 5 minutes per game.

"Hey, Chen, are you still there?" Chen Xiao, who was slightly shocked, shouted with thick eyebrows.

"Now, is Thomas so miserable now?" Chen Xiao subconsciously asked back, he would be puzzled if he had thick eyebrows, after all, he was also a person who was clamoring to be as famous as himself before, "Nan Nongmei, Xi Tuoluo".

The result is directly one sky and one underground.

Hey, things are impermanent, the two sighed a little, chatted a few more words, one just finished beating the warrior who was about to be called, and hung up the phone.

　This book has disciples, thank you "Daddy Shangguan" for your support, thank you!
