Los Angeles, Staples Arena, this is the first time Anxi has been here since his transfer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When it comes to Staples again, the Lakers have long been a thing.

Kobe Bryant returned at the beginning of the season, only played 6 games, and announced the season reimbursement again, and now the Lakers can only rely on Nick Young to support the scene, Mike D'Anthony's run-and-gun tactics killed Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash, and ran away Dwight Howard, and in this game, the only remaining Pau Gasol was also suspended due to injury, and there have been rumors in the league that Pau Gasol will be traded.

In this game, the 76ers regarded the Lakers as an opponent who practiced tactics, and after the opening, they continued to run and play the tactics they wanted.

And Anxi's performance in this game was very dull, there were no bright spots, and the game was won easily, and the battle ended in the third quarter.

In the end, Anxi scored 21 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals, and the statistics were lower than usual.

At 109:78, the 76ers won easily.

After the victory over the Lakers, the 76ers ushered in a wave of three consecutive wins, 19-11, and the 76ers continued to bite the Hawks in front of them, and there was a possibility of overtaking the Hawks to become third in the East at any time.

After the game, Anxi did not rush to leave the scene, he hugged Kobe Bryant, who was watching the game.

Kobe Bryant was wearing a suit and already had a confident smile on his face.

"Ann, good job, but unfortunately, I didn't get you to play in Los Angeles. Kobe finally patted Anxi on the shoulder, and then said goodbye to Anxi.

Not being able to come to Los Angeles to play, Anxi himself felt a little pity, but it was just a pity, the Lakers' small owner Jim Bass already regretted it, he regretted his intestines, in the offseason, the Lakers have been fighting for Dwight Howard, their goal is to keep the league's No. 1 center Dwight Howard, but they directly snubbed Anxi.

Even Mitch Kupchak didn't even consider signing Anxi, and now, the Lakers have found that they have the best commercial development in the NBA, missing the cash cow of Anxi, and perhaps will miss the best revival opportunity in the post-Kobe era.

After playing the Lakers, the time has come to the new year, and 2014 has come and gone.

On January 1, 2014, the 76ers arrived at the Denver Plateau, they wore the retro jerseys of the 76ers from the 80s, and Charles Barkley, who was commentating the game, looked at the 76ers jerseys of their era, and suddenly felt a little emotional.

The 19-11 76ers are back on the rise, relying on Anxi who moved from the San Antonio Spurs......

And before the start of this game, the league released two eye-catching news one after another, both related to Anxi.

The first is the Player of the Month, Coach of the Month, and Rookie of the Month awards in December.

In December, Anxi averaged 28.5 points, 4.2 rebounds, 6.2 assists, 3.4 steals and 0.8 blocks per game, scoring second in the league and first in steals in the league, plus the 76ers achieved an excellent record of 10 wins and 3 losses in December, and the Eastern Player of the Month naturally belonged to Anxi.

Anxi won the Player of the Month, and McCarvey once again became the Eastern Rookie of the Month, although there were occasional struggles, but among the 13 rookies, McCarvey's data was still the best, and the record was the same.

The best coach of the month was won by the Toronto Raptors' Dwyane Casey, and the Raptors achieved an 8-6 record in December, which is not as good as the 76ers, but the biggest reason why Dwayne Casey won this award is the Raptors' progress.

Compared to the 6-9 record in November, the Raptors improved significantly in December, with the team's starting five players averaging double-doubles per game, winning six away games in December, and winning seven of the last nine games in December.

Dwayne Casey also became the third head coach in Raptors history to win this award, the first two being Lenny Wilkens in 2002 and Sammitt Chel in 2007.

In the West, the best coach of the month was won by Anxi's father-in-law Jeff Hornacek, who led the team to a 9-4 record in December, including successive victories over the Mavericks, Warriors, Rockets and Clippers and other strong Western opponents, so far, the Suns rank 8th in the league scoring list with an average of 103.7 points per game, and under the leadership of Jeff Hornacek, the Suns are fierce in the new season.

And Jeff Hornacek also became the first person in NBA history to win Player of the Month and Coach of the Month on the same team.

Twenty-two years ago, it was Jeff Hornacek's only season when he was selected as an All-Star, and as the Suns' leading guard, Hornacek averaged 20.1 points per game.

Larry Bird and Larry Drew have both won Player of the Month and Coach of the Month, but they have won both accolades on different teams. Among them, Larry Bird was with the Celtics as a player and coached with the Pacers. Larry Drew spent his time in Kansas City as a player and coached with the Hawks.

The Western Conference's Rookie of the Month was won by Treyback, a 2K "god" rookie who finally exploded in reality, leading all rookies in December by averaging 5.9 assists per game and shooting 91.9% from the free-throw line, ranking second in 14.8 points per game and 32.7 minutes played. In 16 games in December, Burke had 13 double-doubles, dished out 5+ assists in 12 games, and had an assist-to-turnover ratio of 3.03. In addition, Burke averaged 18.1 points, seven assists and three rebounds per game in the seven games the Jazz won in December, with a total efficiency of +84 per game, and helped the Jazz win six of their last 11 games.

The Western Conference Player of the Month award went to Kevin Durant, who won the honor for the second consecutive time this season, and in December, Kevin Durant averaged 29.4 points per game, ranking first in the league, along with nine rebounds and 4.5 assists.

Anxi won the Player of the Month award for December, but this is what Anxi deserves, but another news released by the NBA official has sparked heated discussions in North America.

The voting for the first phase of the All-Star Weekend was announced, and in the West, Stephen Curry received 549095 votes, leading the West with Anthony Davis, who received 544623 votes, while Kobe Bryant received 521542 votes, becoming third in the West and second in the backcourt.

Bryant's dominance in the Western backcourt was shaken by Stephen Curry, which became big news ahead of this All-Star weekend.

But the bigger news is yet to come.

After Kopo's heavy injury, LeBron James's popularity flourished in the NBA, but LeBron James, who received 552967 votes in the first stage, was not the king of the league, not even the king of the East!

On the throne of the Alliance's ticket king, there is a short name written - "an-xi"!

709209! Anxi's votes in the first stage exploded directly, leading the second LeBron James by 150,000 votes, which is almost a crushing lead!

People can't help but ask: Is Anxi worthy of the throne of the king of votes?

As a result, the 76ers' 19-11 record, as well as Anxi's current average of 28.9 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 3.4 steals and 0.8 blocks per game, have played a role.

However, in North America, many nativist fans expressed their dissatisfaction, they believe that the reason why Anxi was able to beat LeBron James to become the ticket king was because of the vast number of Chinese behind him, who did not recognize Anxi's strength, and of course did not recognize the identity of Anxi as the ticket king.

Among them, there were even radical reporters who ran to LeBron James and asked about it, asking what LeBron James thought.

In this regard, LeBron James, who has always had high emotional intelligence, chose to avoid answering.

However, the North American vote king turmoil is not over, because a month ago, because of Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith, they were discussing whether Anxi could squeeze out Dwayne Wade to become an All-Star starter, and a month later, Anxi had already squeezed out LeBron James and became the vote king in the first phase of the All-Star election, such a gap made many fans in North America feel unacceptable.

However, the local media in Philadelphia said: The all-star ticket king is nothing at all!

"In the history of the league, Da Yao from the East also won the All-Star vote king in the 05 and 06 seasons, and Anxi's performance was better and more brilliant, he was able to become the All-Star vote king, which is nothing at all, not to mention that Anxi became the All-Star first-stage vote king, and has completely crushed the second LeBron James......"

However, at this time, Americans' sense of national honor has risen, and they have begun to constantly call on Twitter, Facebook and IG, calling on Americans to vote for LeBron James and not let an alien yellow person become the voting king of NBA All-Star Weekend.

On the domestic side, through the reprinting of several major portals, domestic fans also learned about everything that happened in the United States, and a large number of posts appeared on forums such as Hupu, Tieba, and Zhihu, shouting: "Brothers! The time for the battle has come! Let's climb over that wall! Let's vote for our Anxi! One vote a day!"

And just like that, a big war began.

And Anxi, as the person concerned, felt that he couldn't cry or laugh, his thoughts were the same as the local media in Philadelphia, an all-star ticket king, no big deal......

……

On January 1, 2014, the 76ers challenged the Nuggets away, and this game attracted the attention of North American fans because of the ticket king incident.

In the midst of a call for the Nuggets to beat the 76ers, Anxi scored 23 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in the whole game, leading the 76ers to easily defeat the Nuggets.

At this time, the Nuggets are no longer the Nuggets of November, only a month later, the Nuggets' form began to decline, and there were internal problems, and it is rumored that some players within the team were dissatisfied with coach Brian Shaw, and the performance also fell like a meteorite.

In this game, the Nuggets played no better than the rotten Lakers, so the 76ers easily won a victory.

The American fans were disappointed, and the Chinese fans were happy, and they cheered as if they had won a local war.

On January 2, 2014, the 76ers fought the Kings back-to-back.

After consecutive back-to-back games, the 76ers' main lineup is already quite tired, and Brett Brown, who came from the Holy City, naturally learned the rotation method of the Holy City, so in the back-to-back games against the Kings, including Anxi, McCarvey, Thaddeus Young, Jack Crowder and Cole Aldridge on the inside were rotated.

The 76ers' starters naturally became point guard Tony Rotten, shooting guard James Anderson, small forward Evan Turner, power forward Byron Mullens and center Spencer Hawes.

Just when everyone took it for granted that the 76ers would lose this game, Tony Rotten scored 21 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists on 6-of-13 shooting, Evan Turner had 24 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists, Spencer Hawes inside had 28 points and 10 rebounds, plus James Anderson and Francesco Garcia off the bench scored double-doubles.

The 76ers actually won the game 113-106 with the explosion of a group of bench players.

The 76ers' victory was a surprise, and the North American crowd of radical fans was disappointed.

The 76ers still won?

"The Kings are too vegetable, we need a better team to save America!" said an American fan named William Hunter on Twitter, and beating the 76ers seemed to be elevated to the national level all of a sudden.

An Xi saw this tweet, which had been retweeted millions of times, and his face was full of helplessness.

Because of Anxi and because of the All-Star vote king, now the 76ers are about to become the public enemy of the United States, but fortunately, it is just a group of radical fans who are laughing at themselves, and the opponents of the 76ers do not regard the 76ers as enemies, and the game is still going on as usual.

On January 4, 2014, the 76ers arrived in Portland, where they will continue their road trip against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Portland in January is different from Philadelphia, which is also on the northern coast of the United States, the weather in Portland is as warm as spring, and when the 76ers get off the plane, it is still raining lightly outside, and the light rain is continuous, making people feel like spring has arrived.

However, the biting cold wind blowing in front of him still made An Xi tighten his clothes and walk off the plane quickly.

A surprise win in the last game gave the 76ers a five-game winning streak before challenging the Trail Blazers, improving their record to 21-11.

If this game is won, the 76ers can usher in a wave of six consecutive wins, tied the wave of consecutive wins at the beginning of the season, but the opponent in this game is not so easy to mess with, the Trail Blazers are in hot form this season, the team's main players LaMarcus Aldridge and Damion Lillard average more than 20 points per game, plus Nicolas Batum, Wesley Matthews and Robin Lopez, the Trail Blazers have a competitive starting lineup for the new season.

On the bench, Mo Williams can always contribute double-double scoring, Dorrell Wright, who left the 76ers, has also become one of the bench bandits of the Trail Blazers, plus C.J. McCollum and Will Barton, who are more optimistic about Anxi, the Trail Blazers have won 26 games in the West with this lineup, losing only 7 games, and the last meeting between the two teams also ended with the Trail Blazers winning.

So, the 76ers are a bit tough against this game.

Turner Sports also temporarily listed the game as a national broadcast broadcast, and countless North American fans who wanted to see the 76ers lose turned on their televisions and turned to Turner Sports.

If you add the live broadcast of CCTV and Tencent Sports, the number of people watching this game may be hundreds of millions.

Before the game began, the fan named William Hunter tweeted again: "Pioneer (Trailblazers)! Come on! Defeat that Chinese!"

Then received tens of thousands of retweets and discussions again, and this fan named William Hunter seems to be already an Internet celebrity.

……

After getting off the plane, the 76ers went directly to the arena and started the pre-game adaptation training in advance.

The Trail Blazers haven't arrived yet, but there are already a lot of fans on the sidelines, as well as a lot of media reporters, fiddling with their equipment to prepare for the upcoming game.

Because of the ticket king incident, this originally ordinary regular season has become hot, comparable to the battle of the century between the Spurs and the Heat last season.

The 76ers can't say it, in fact, the difference in strength in this game is quite obvious, the strength of the Trail Blazers is obviously higher than that of the 76ers, the 76ers only have one All-Star - Anxi, and the Trail Blazers directly have two - Damion Lillard and LaMarcus Aldridge, plus Batum These powerful players, this game is almost Anxi one or two or even a dozen more.

So, the pressure on the 76ers is still a lot, on the one hand, they want to continue to win, and on the other hand, the attention of North America makes them a little overwhelmed.

An Xi was training with his teammates, and a group of Trail Blazers fans were watching, but fortunately, there were no such radical Trail Blazers fans, no one was making trouble, most of the fans just watched quietly, and then took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

At this time, a little fan who was five or six years old at most trotted all the way to Anxi's side.

Anxi was shooting, and the shooting coach sent a fast and ruthless pass, just as the little fan ran to Anxi's side, which scared Anxi, but fortunately, Anxi was quick, put the basketball aside, and then looked at the little fan.

Yellow-haired and dark-skinned, he looks like an Asian.

An Xi tried to ask in Chinese: "Little brother, are you here to find me?"

The little fan replied in a milky voice: "Yes, Anxi, give me a picture." Then he raised the phone in his hand.

An Xi laughed, the little fan was very cute, he called An Xi, he touched the little fan's head affectionately, and then nodded in agreement: "No problem." ”

At this time, the parents of the little fans also came over and looked at Anxi with an apologetic smile, they patronized and took pictures, not paying attention to their children running to Anxi.

An Xi smiled, disagreed, stopped training, took a photo with the little fan, and then gave another autograph.

Then, I chatted with the parents of this little fan.

It turned out that they came to the United States from China to travel, from Dalian, Northeast China, the husband's name is Zhong Yu, the wife's name is Xu Yourong, and the child's name is Xiaomao.

When Xiao Mao went to the audience, he waved at An Xi, An Xi smiled, didn't care, and turned his head to signal the shooting coach to continue.

The Trail Blazers also soon came to the scene to start the pre-game warm-up practice, Damion Lillard won a cheer when he played, and now the sophomore point guard is conquering the Tear City (Portland) with his excellent performance, since ancient times there are many fans on the outside, in Portland, Damion Lillard's hotness has surpassed LaMarcus Aldridge, who has single-handedly dragged the Trail Blazers forward in recent years.

By the time the Trail Blazers arrived, Anxi had stopped training, wiped her sweat, and then gave an interview to Turner Sports host Doris Burke on the sidelines.

The pre-game interview was supposed to be Anxi's turn, but there was no way, now the hottest basketball player in the United States and even the world is Anxi, and Doris Burke stopped Anxi directly on the sidelines.

"Ann, can I ask you a few questions?" Anxi and Doris Burke are also old acquaintances, as the best player of the 76ers, Anxi has to participate in post-game interviews on the sidelines almost every game, and as one of the well-known hosts of Turner Sports, most of the games, the interviewer with Anxi is either Doris Burke or Craig Sager.

Therefore, in the face of the request of an old acquaintance, An Xi naturally refused it, he nodded, and then stopped on the sidelines.

"What do you think of this game?" asked Doris Burke with a very short question.

An Xi raised his eyebrows, although this question was simple, An Xi knew that it was not so easy to answer.

He thought for a moment, then said slowly: "The Trail Blazers are a very strong opponent, they are now third in the West, behind the Spurs and Thunder, this game is destined to be a difficult game for us, but we will try to win until the last minute." ”

"What do you think of the controversy that some fans in North America have over you?" Doris Burke finally asked the controversial question.

An Xi didn't hesitate this time, he had already thought about how to answer: "The all-star ticket king makes them sensitive, but I don't think it's the original sin, I will use my performance to prove that I am worthy of the honor of the ticket king." ”

But after saying this, An Xi immediately regretted it.

Your own performance?

An Xi thought about it, and there was nothing left to show except for winning this game.

And if this game is not won, it is conceivable that the criticism of Anxi after the game will be overwhelming, although it is quiet now, but the feeling of the storm is still obvious.

But the difficulty of winning this game, Anxi can't imagine it, the 26-7 Trailblazers are one notch ahead of the 76ers, and they are also in good shape, Anxi can only fight with all his might, his last answer has also pushed himself to the edge of the cliff, this game must be won. (To be continued.) )
