The big discussion around the rise of the 'Mirror Lake Group' swept the whole world, and Xiao Feng, the 'Mirror Lake Group', the Lakers, and Newcastle further increased their popularity, becoming the hottest topic in March and April.

However, this did not have much of an impact on the game between the two teams, and although there were countless reporters surrounding them before and after the game, it could not stop them from moving forward.

Newcastle United not only reached the FA Cup final, but also maintained their strong momentum in the league, continuing to lead the table with a seven-point advantage, and the league title is almost within reach. In Europe, Newcastle won back-to-back victories over Dynamo Kyiv and Paris Saint-Germain to reach the semi-finals and create the club's best result in history.

Now, the media are speculating whether Newcastle will become the second team in England to win the 'treble' two years after Xiao Feng took over?

The success of Newcastle United has also stimulated more global capital to enter the Premier League, after all, it is the most open and active commercial football market, and after Xiao Feng tasted the sweetness, more and more Chinese consortiums have more interest in the Premier League.

According to the news revealed by the "Sun", "The Times" and other media, several Chinese consortiums have begun to contact London teams including West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Crystal Palace in an attempt to buy these teams.

Judging from the choice of the Huaxia consortium, the teams in the big cities always have a greater appeal, after all, in addition to attracting more spectators and advertisers, the real estate projects that run the stadium are also a big source of income.

In the case of Newcastle, the 'Mirror Lake Group' after the acquisition of the team. Construction of the new stadium will soon begin, and it will be based on the former site of St. James's Park together with the 'Qianxin Group'. Leveraging a super property project with a total investment of over £3 billion. According to the financial media's assessment of the project, the 'Mirror Lake Group' will make a profit of about 500 million pounds and fully recover the funds from the acquisition of Newcastle.

In addition, Newcastle United, which is backed by the huge market in China, can also make more profits in areas such as TV broadcasting, advertising sponsorship and merchandise, further enhancing the team's profitability and market value!

Businessmen are 'unprofitable and can't afford to be early', and the huge profits of the 'Jinghu Group' in Newcastle United have undoubtedly given hope to the Huaxia consortium, so it is reasonable that the enthusiasm for investment is high.

There are media assertions. In the summer of Newcastle United's initial success, there will be a lot of blockbuster deals across the Premier League, and perhaps the 'Premier League' will one day be renamed 'Chinese Super League'!

Newcastle United are not doing badly. The Lakers, who are far away in Los Angeles, have not been idle, winning 18 of the final 20 games of the regular season, creating the best record in NBA regular season history with a 77-5 record. Such a record is not just unprecedented. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a person who has not come after it.

In this season. Not only did the Lakers record the best regular season in NBA regular season history, but they also had the all-time record of 41 home wins, and the 37-game winning streak was even more desperate.

In fact, industry insiders know that there is still a chance to break these records, if it weren't for the Lakers strategically giving up the last two away games, and also inexplicably losing to the Nuggets on the road, interrupting the 37-game winning streak. There is a possibility that there will be even more alarming records.

Even so, the Lakers have had a jaw-dropping season. Maybe after 50 or 100 years, this season will be the most special in basketball history.

Not only did the Lakers excel in terms of team record, but also in the individual stats of the players, and it was a good season for the Lakers as a whole.

As the star of the team, Kobe Bryant, who has recovered his health, played the best level of his career with the support of his teammates, and won the regular season scoring title with an average of 40.2 points per game! This is the third time that Kobe Bryant has won the title of scoring champion, although this is not comparable to Jordan's 10-time scoring title, but the score of breaking 40 points is still much higher than Jordan's highest 36 points.

This season, because of the improvement of the team's lineup, Kobe Bryant can put more energy into the offensive side, and the organization and defense aspects are handed over to the owner Xiao Feng. Therefore, Kobe's almost inexplicable offensive ability on the court has been perfectly released, and he has played a super stat second only to Chamberlain.

Although Xiao Feng joined the NBA in his first year, he still played a super triple-double combination with an average of 28 points, 21 assists and 10 rebounds per game with his extraordinary physical fitness and super personal ability, and won the title of regular season steal king with 5.2 steals.

Xiao Feng is also the first player in NBA history to score 25+, assist 20+, rebound 10+ and steal 5+ in one season, and this is only his first season!

There are many media speculating that if Kobe Bryant had joined the NBA a few years ago, would he have been able to play the current luxury data, and would he have become the new 'data king' in NBA history?

The perfect performance of Xiao Feng and Kobe Bryant also made it a little difficult for the NBA officials, because in the selection of the regular season MVP, the two players are indistinguishable.

Based on their on-court roles, stats, and team records, it is really difficult to see which team they are eligible for the MVP, but now they are teammates.

In the end, NBA officials made a historic decision, announcing that Xiao Feng and Kobe Bryant were both elected as the 2015-16 regular season MVP, which was also the first time in NBA history that there was a tie for regular season MVP. Usually in an entertaining event like the All-Star Game, it doesn't matter if you're tied for MVP, after all, you just need to smile.

But when it comes to awards like regular season MVP, it's always about picking the best player or giving him an award for a special reason, such as Karl Malone that year.

In the 96-97 season, Jordan was not only the scoring champion. and led the team to the best record in the league, but the MVP title was given to Malone, which has a lot of sympathy points.

For this decision of the headquarters of the Alliance. The media and fans did not raise much doubt, after all, the performance of the two is obvious to all, and the Lakers backcourt golden double gun award can be described as a great joy!

In addition to Xiao Feng and Kobe Bryant winning the MVP, Kobe Bryant winning the scoring title, Xiao Feng winning the assist king and steal king, and both selected to the best first team and the first defensive team, the Lakers' personal honors are not many.

First of all. Rookie Towns won the Rookie of the Year honor with 16.9 points, 12.6 rebounds and 1.8 blocks, after all, he played well on the court, played for big teams and his aura of being the top pick added a lot of points.

Furthermore. Jeremy Lin, who served as Kobe Bryant's backup, became the leading big brother on the Lakers' bench, and his average of 16 points per game set a new scoring record in the NBA, making him the league's 'best sixth man'!

In the past, Jeremy Lin was relatively embarrassed, after all, his physical and personal abilities were a little difficult to play against the league's top guards. Not only can you not play good statistics, but you are also prone to injury. But when Jeremy Lin is put on the bench. His ability immediately stood out from the crowd, and he easily led the Lakers' bench bandits to break down the opposing bench and win more rest time for the main team.

In the eyes of professional media, the reason why the Lakers were able to achieve the best record in history this season is that in addition to Kobe Bryant and Xiao Feng's out-of-standard performance, the bench bandits led by Jeremy Lin have contributed a lot!

Whether it is from the perspective of on-court performance and data analysis, Jeremy Lin did not insult his big contract of 40 million in 5 years, and he deserved to be the 'best sixth man'!

When the NBA regular season ends. The league officially released various honors one after another, and the Lakers became the biggest winners. After all, they have shown themselves to be competitive all season.

Lakers coach Scott did not receive the honor of 'best coach', because in the eyes of many media reporters, basketball experts and league officials, the Lakers' glory is more based on super strength, and Scott's coaching ability is not too directly related.

While the performances of rookies Towns and Jeremy Lin proved Scott's quality, the best coach went to Steve Kerr, who led the Warriors to a 73-9 record.

Kerr led the Warriors to 67 wins last season, but he lost to the Hawks' Budenholzer in the Coach of the Year award and didn't win the title in his rookie season.

This season, Kerr led the Warriors to an amazing record that surpassed the Bulls, but with a pervert like the Lakers coming out, Kerr and his disciples could only sigh. Coincidentally, when the Bulls played the best record in history, Kerr was one of the big players, which can only make people sigh that the world is impermanent.

However, for many media and fans, the NBA Best Coach honor is more of a 'curse', and among the head coaches who have won the best coach in the past 20 years, except for Popovich, who has led the team to win the championship, the rest of the people are not in a good situation, and even 8 coaches have lost their jobs.

The NBA regular season is over, and so are the preparations for the playoffs, but in the general opinion of the media, this year's playoffs may be the least suspenseful.

In the Eastern Conference, the Cavaliers are much better than their competitors, and as long as the Big Three of James, Irving, and Love don't fall off the chain at the same time, they will still make it to the Finals as well as last year.

As for the Western Conference, the Lakers and Warriors, who are seeded 1/2 respectively, will basically have no opponents, and even the seasoned Spurs will have little hope of reaching the Western Conference Finals because they face the Lakers in the semifinals. It is foreseeable that the Western Conference Finals will be played between the Lakers and the Warriors, but the Warriors, who have lost 4 games to the Lakers this season, have very little hope of turning the tables around!

Facing the Cavaliers who have lost twice under their hands, presumably the Lakers will not have to work too hard, and the championship will naturally be captured!

After the end of the NBA regular season, the predictions of the major media for the playoffs are almost identical, and the bookmakers have basically stopped betting on the Lakers to win the championship, and the outside world does not have too much disagreement about the Lakers' strong championship.

…………

After the dust settles on the regular season honors, the 16 teams that broke into the playoffs have begun their final preparations, and the whole league has a bit of a 'mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings'.

Of course, those players who missed the playoffs can only pack their bags and go on vacation to various tourist destinations around the world with a sense of loss, comforting themselves with beautiful scenery, beautiful women and good food.

The Lakers, who deserve the best record in history, have gained home-court advantage throughout the series, so their focus is on Staples Arena, which will see a new championship trophy in Los Angeles this summer, if nothing else.

Some anxious Los Angeles media and fan groups have begun to prepare for the route and method of the championship parade, and some Hollywood stars have also expressed their intention to go to Staples Arena in person to cheer for the team's victory.

In a sense, if the Lakers can't win the championship as they wish this year, they will probably be embarrassed and thrown to the Pacific!

Xiao Feng has publicly announced that the team will give the players a bonus of $500,000 for winning the championship, and as for the rest of the club's staff, they can also get no less than half a year's salary!

Such a big deal immediately won the unanimous support of the Lakers, although this is not a large number for superstars such as Kobe, Aldridge, Gasol, etc., but for ordinary players and staff, it is quite good!

As the saying goes, 'under the heavy reward, there must be brave men', Xiao Feng's bonus means have well mobilized the enthusiasm of the whole team, and various preparations are being carried out in an orderly manner.

At the same time, the Lakers' playoff tickets at Staples Arena are already on sale, and the ticketing site is almost overwhelmed by the crowd of fans, and it almost collapses. In just 5 minutes, tickets for the first two home games of the first round of the Lakers' playoffs were sold out!

On the black market, the price of tickets for the front row of Staples Arena has risen to $3,000, but it is still priceless, after all, the Lakers don't put these golden tickets on the website.

As a game that has attracted global attention, Staples's front-row tickets have always been favored by entertainment stars, sports bigwigs and even consortium dignitaries, and the Lakers will naturally do a good job of public relations and marketing. After all, the sensational effect of sitting in the front row is always greater than that of ordinary wealthy businessmen, right?

As the days passed, as the European football scene was gradually drawing to a close, the NBA playoffs were the first to start, and the eyes of the whole world began to focus on the North American continent.

The Lakers welcome the young Trail Blazers in Staples, where they will begin their championship attempt, but will they continue the myth of invincibility in the regular season or will they disappoint fans?

The world's heavyweight television outlets and portals have chosen to broadcast the match live, and with respect for the good and the powerful, the big battle is on the verge of breaking out! )
