The Godfather of Basketball

West's face was full of smiles, and he turned and gave Oden a slap.

This is teaching him hand in hand.

Tang Tian was also very pleased to watch off the court. They all said that there is a family like an old man. The West recruited by the Nets in the summer really picked up the treasure.

Oden has West to guide on the field, the exercise value is much greater than expected.

In the end, the Nets beat the 76ers 103 to 76 at home, expanding the winning streak to 5 games.

Oden played 12 minutes in the last quarter, 3 of 5 shots, 2 of 4 free throws, and finally got 8 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks.

The progress is obvious to all. Not only is the offensive grasp great, but the defense is also better than before.

The number of blocked shots is not too large, but the deterrent on the defensive end is obvious. Okafor was forced to shoot at the free throw line.

A very good start.

After the game against the 76ers, the Nets flew to Minnesota.

In the next two days, they will play a back-to-back away game, first playing against the Timberwolves, and then playing the Lakers.

The good news is that the opponents are not strong, and they have a great chance of expanding their winning streak.

The Timberwolves gave up the contract to match Butler in the summer, on the one hand because Butler is not optimistic about the ability to lead the team last season, on the other hand, it is also to give young players more exercise opportunities.

The Timberwolves are now a team of young people including Downs, Wiggins, Muhammad and Gion.

Against such a team, the Nets are clearly more dominant.

However, the final result was a bit unexpected. The Timberwolves were in a hot state tonight. Not only did they hold on with the Nets in the first half, but they did not collapse in the third quarter. Finally, Muhammad led the team in the third and fourth quarters. After a climax, they finally beat the Nets 97 to 94.

The Nets feel bad in icy Minnesota, and the team's shooting percentage is less than 40%.

It is normal for the team's performance to fluctuate, and the Tigers doze off, not to mention that the Nets are not really a strong team in the true sense.

However, in addition to their poor hand feeling, the Nets also have a bad game.

In the first and second quarters, Booker's two pass errors, and in the third and fourth quarters, Pulalim's two consecutive butter hands, let the opponent hit a wave of climax, but also the Nets failed to reverse the game in the end The key to back.

An unprecedented loss, but because it was a back-to-back game, there was not much time left for them to sum up. The team got on a plane to Los Angeles early the next morning.

The Lakers are in an awkward situation this season. Kobe can still play, but the team's strength has dropped significantly. After Yao Ming retired, they also didn't want to win.

Even for the Lakers fans, Kobe's retired tour is more interesting than victory or defeat.

Kobe suffered a lot of injuries during the regular season last season. Before the start of the season, he had stated that he would retire after the end of the season, so for fans, his game really came to the point of watching one less game.

During the warm-up training before the game, Kobe also came to greet Tang Tian.

The two had a great conversation.

During the Tang Tian rocket period, the Lakers were their main opponents. In the post-Kobe era, Kobe and the Lakers were killed by Tang Tian and the Rockets. They lost the best chance to win the championship, and it is estimated that there is no chance of winning the championship.

Tang Tian also thought about recruiting Kobe under his command. After all, he knew that Kobe could still play.

But this idea was quickly rejected by himself. Kobe's character, even if he was not holding his thighs, would not choose to join his team.

For Kobe, it's not a championship that takes him as the core, it's better not to be. This is the paranoid character.

After the two chatted, the game was about to start, and the starting players on both sides began to appear one after another.

The Nets are on the regular lineup, with Deron and Gordon on the outside, Butler and Yi Jianlian on the front, and Jokic on the center.

On the Lakers side, Jordan Clarkson and Kobe are the outside line, Raven and Julius Randall are on the line, and Roy Hibbert is the center.

The game started immediately, the scene was also cheered, and the Staples Center was full. Every game of Kobe this season is destined to attract everyone's attention.

After the game started, the Nets quickly entered the state. Offensive Jokic's Hibbert could not find North, and young players such as Raven and Randall were also fascinated by the high-pressure defense of the Nets' strike line.

But maybe it's Tang Tian again. Kobe is extremely excited to play in this game. He jumps and throws, not only forgetting his injuries, but even forgetting his age.

Also driven by him, the first quarter was almost over, and the Lakers only trailed the Nets by two points 21 to 23.

Fans on the scene saw it and they were excited. Don't want it. Kobe's performance is the most exciting.

About two minutes left before the end of the first quarter of the game, both sides have successively entered the bench.

On the Lakers side, this year's No. 20 show Deron Wright, Louis Williams, Nick Young, Bass and Nantes Jr. all came off the bench.

The Nets are here ~ www.readwn.com ~ Livingston, Booker, Butler, West and Pralim.

Both sides are in normal rotation.

The Lakers' offense, Williams's breakthrough layup was defended by Butler, the Nets counterattacked, Booker's chasing three-pointer shot.

I didn't feel well last night, and today it is recovered.

But looking back, Williams hit a three-pointer on the outside against Booker's defensive force and returned an answerball.

The Nets have a good bench, but the Lakers have a 15-5 Louis Williams.

Livingston's frontcourt organization, West caught the ball after receiving the ball and directly passed the ball to the hand of Pillim who was empty inside.

There is a Nick Young under Pillim, who makes a direct close shot.

But at a critical moment, his butter hand attribute was triggered again, even sliding out of the box.

Bass, who had been rebounded, was taken back. The Lakers failed to push back, but in the frontcourt, it was Louis Williams, who rushed into the inside and caused Pralim's thug.

After two free throws, the Lakers have tied the score.

Booker found a chance to hit another high jumper in the frontcourt, but looking back, Williams found another chance to hit Pulalim in a misaligned position, and the continuous step-back jumper also moved in.

With his goal scored, the first quarter of the game was officially over.

The score on the field was 28 and the two teams tied.

This is acceptable to the Lakers, but a little unacceptable to Tang Tian.

Kobe had been in good shape for the previous period, even after two minutes off the bench, the team lost too many opportunities.

Especially Pillim, not only the butterman, but also the defensive catch by Williams.

"Greg, you are ready to play." He thought about it for a while and finally walked to the end of the bench to call Oden.
