【Chapter 1005】 Setting a Record (Subscription Requested!)

Milwaukee, located in southeastern Wisconsin, USA, on the west shore of Lake Michigan, is Wisconsin's largest city and economic center. It is less than 200 kilometers away from the Chicago metropolitan area, the most industrially concentrated area in North America, and is home to 10 Fortune 500 companies and 24 Fortune 1000 companies.

The Milwaukee Bucks are one of the city's symbols, having won the championship in 1971 when they won the season with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and triple-double king Oscar Robert.

However, the Bucks have never won a championship since then, and they haven't even had a chance to make the playoffs in recent years, finishing 22nd last season!

Chinese fans are most familiar with Milwaukee than when Space Yi played here, and the Bucks became one of the home teams of Chinese fans that year. It's a pity that good days always pass very quickly, and Space Yi was traded to the Nets by the Bucks the following year because of injury, and the enthusiasm of Chinese fans also faded!

Now, the eyes of fans around the world are focused on the city, and Lakers fans want the Lakers to set a record, while its opponents are naturally hoping that the Bucks will go above and beyond to end the Lakers' winning streak!

This game is of great significance, and the characters related to it and unrelated to it have appeared in the stands of Bradley Center, which can be described as star-studded!

This time, the wives of the Lakers also appeared in the stands, although they lived in the same hotel as the players, they were on different floors, and at the critical moment, the Lakers team in charge of the owner would not easily drop the chain.

The most eye-catching in the wife group are naturally the proprietress Xu Mengyao and sister-in-law Vasani, one of them is dignified and beautiful, and the other is hot and sexy. Countless films who murdered reporters at the scene.

In the vicinity of the wives group, actresses from Hollywood are also dressed up in a dazzling way, striving to win more attention in this kind of global attention.

44 years ago, the sniper battle involved in the sniper battle of the sky hook Abdul-Jabbar came, the nearly eighty-year-old triple-double king Big O also appeared on the scene, the prototype West on the NBA league logo came, and the older Baylor Ye also came. The god operator Parker Riley is still in a straight suit and his hair is not messy,......。

Looking at the stands, it is like the NBA's Hall of Fame, these old people condense the glory and history of the NBA, and the NBA is incomplete without them. The gray-haired players won a standing ovation from the fans, and even the players who were warming up stopped their movements and saluted their predecessors!

Xiao Feng, who has been transformed from an ordinary person to a player in a short period of time, is particularly touched by this, and he never thought that competitive sports would have such a warm and emotional side. Maybe that's one of the charms of the NBA!

In addition to these famous names in ancient times, retired stars including Jordan, O'Neal, Johnson, Yao Ming and other retired stars also appeared in the stands, waiting to witness the historic moment!

Both media reporters and fans believe that with only 21 wins and 35 losses, the Bucks, who are ranked 13th in the East, are unlikely to cause any trouble for the Lakers.

The unanimous perception of public opinion and the outside world and the feeling that Bradley as a Lakers home are simply arranged have made the hearts of the Bucks soldiers feel a fire in their hearts.

However, the Bucks' total salary this year is less than 75 million, and most of them are in the middle of the contract. This also shows that the Bucks don't have any superstars, and in contrast, the Lakers' starting five are all but Xiao Feng. The salaries of the four have exceeded the total of the entire Bucks team, and the gap is huge!

Therefore, when the game starts, even if the Bucks have three military lives, the difference in strength is too large, not to mention that the Lakers also have a super triple-double king with a base salary, and the score between the two sides gradually widens. Like every game the Lakers have played for the past few months.

After halftime, Xiao Feng's triple-double and Kobe's 28 points have already given the Lakers a 16-point lead, and many TV station broadcast commentators have announced in advance that the Lakers have won 34 consecutive victories, creating a record in the NBA!

Sitting in the stands, NBA league president Silva had a big smile on his face, but he was quite depressed inside. In the face of such an inexplicable Lakers, even if the league has done its best to make a home whistle, it is still powerless.

A team with a good style of play, a fluid offense, and a superstar will naturally get more attention from the NBA around the world, which is undoubtedly a good thing for the league!

However, there are pros and cons to everything!

The Lakers have won countless fans this season and increased investment from advertisers and broadcasters, but Silva realizes that a near-invincible team is not good for the league because it reduces the intensity of the game.

According to the statistics of the technical department, since the New Year, teams against the Lakers have often raised their hands in the second half of the third quarter to surrender, which not only builds the Lakers' winning streak, but also reduces the final quarter of the game to garbage time!

At the beginning, Serie A was known as the 'Little World Cup', because Juventus, Milan, Roma, Fiorentina and Parma had similar strengths, plus Udine, Lecce and other teams disrupted the situation, which created the glory of the year.

Now, the Premier League and La Liga are in stark contrast, nothing more than the invincible team has greatly compressed the living space of the small team, and the game is becoming more and more ugly, while the Premier League is a chaotic time, with sparks flying in every game, attracting more viewers and advertisers.

The reason why the NBA has been able to be promoted to the world over the years is nothing more than fierce confrontation and relatively average strength comparison, but the emergence of the Lakers this year has broken this balance, which is not good!

However, although Silva is anxious, he will not make some stupid moves that make people catch the handle, and can only slightly strengthen the home whistle, the water supply failure in the away locker room, etc., to affect the state of the Lakers as much as possible.

After breaking the NBA winning streak, the global media's attention to the Lakers and the NBA will also reach a peak.

Looking at Xiao Feng, who was wreaking havoc on the Bucks' basket with an unreasonable long-range three-pointer on the court, Silva knew that things had to fall on this particular player.

Silva believes that after getting enough team honours and exposure, Xiao Feng will not mind the team losing a game or two. After all, he's not a pure player.

If it was Kobe, Silva couldn't guarantee that the most paranoid player in the league would have other reactions, thinking of this, Silva suddenly felt that it was good for Xiao Feng to join the NBA!

Once he had made up his mind, Silva put aside all the chaotic thoughts in his head and focused on the game. To be precise, it was watching Xiao Feng and Kobe perform in different ways, winning the collective defection of the away fans!

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Bucks with a score of 122-108, which was the end of the onslaught after they led by 28 points, leaving the home team with a little face!

When the referee's whistle sounded, the streamers on the scene erupted, which contrasted with the cheers and applause of the audience, which was a historic moment!

In today's increasingly balanced NBA teams, the Rockets' 22-game winning streak has been considered an unrepeatable miracle. But after 8 years, the Lakers have played an impressive winning streak.

At the same moment, commentators from all over the world are congratulating the Lakers in their own way, after all, such a long winning streak is not only a miracle in the NBA, but also a myth in the global sports world!

Especially the commentator of the CCTV sports channel, his voice is hoarse, this time the Lakers' 34-game winning streak is more honorable than the 22-game winning streak of the Rockets, after all, Yao Da was reimbursed for the season after winning 12 games in a row!

The broadcast is not over yet. The on-site host has blocked Xiao Feng and Kobe Bryant and conducted live interviews with them. Various TV stations have also taken advantage of the trend to extend the broadcast time.

"Congratulations on your 34-game winning streak and making history!" the host congratulated the two and then asked, "What do you want to say to the fans now?"

"I'm very grateful to the fans for their support, if it wasn't for them, we wouldn't have persevered, after all, 34 games is a long process!" said captain of the team. Bryant answered the question first as usual, saying, "There were several times when I was about to break down, but fortunately the boss and other teammates stepped up, we are a perfect team!"

Kobe Bryant 10 years ago wouldn't have said these words. At that time, he was paranoid to a certain extent, convinced that after O'Neal left the Lakers, he could lead the team to a championship!

After 19 years in the NBA, a 38-year-old veteran has learned the essence of team basketball.

"Yes, we are the perfect team!" Xiao Feng nodded beside him and said: "Today's winning streak is a tribute to the celebrities present, it is precisely because of their creation that the NBA has today's influence, and we will continue to work hard!"

To be able to lead the team to leave an eternal mark on the NBA's honor roll, whether it is Kobe Bryant, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, or Xiao Feng, who has seen strong winds and waves, is quite happy!

After returning to the locker room, Xiao Feng announced that he would give out a prize of $100,000 to everyone on the team, which drew cheers from the young players and staff!

$100,000 is naturally unattractive for superstars like Kobe and Aldridge, but it is a lot of money for rookies like Towns and Randle.

For the staff of the medical team and the logistics team, $100,000 is almost a year's salary, and they even shouted the slogan 'Long live the boss'!

Compared with other NBA teams, the Lakers have a strong Chinese corporate culture because of Xiao Feng's ownership, such as Spring Festival red envelopes, such as festival fees and bonuses, these measures do not cost much, but they invisibly improve the team's combat effectiveness and cohesion.

After playing the Bucks, the Lakers have two games left in February, back-to-back games against the Grizzlies, and they will fly to Memphis to challenge the Grizzlies before returning to Los Angeles for their final game in February.

Before leaving Milwaukee, Xiao Feng and Silva had a brief meeting, and the two sides reached a consensus on the next game direction of the Lakers, and the Lakers will no longer pursue a long winning streak, giving the NBA league enough time to respond.

Of course, the league also took into account the needs of the Lakers, and they can't lose at home, can't lose the last two games in February, and the only thing left is to 'consciously lose' in the away game against the Nuggets on March 2.

Otherwise, after 8 consecutive home games, when will this winning streak end?

Considering that the consistent wins also put more mental pressure on the players, Xiao Feng agreed with Silva and prepared for his third loss in the NBA.

Two days later, the Lakers beat the Grizzlies in Memphis to extend their winning streak to 35 games, and each victory has made those who come after them even more desperate.

In the ensuing back-to-back games, the Lakers sat at Staples Arena and defeated the visiting Grizzlies, improving their winning streak and once again winning all month!

When facing the Nets at home on March 1, the Lakers had injuries of varying degrees, especially the absence of Jeremy Lin and Nash on the bench, which suddenly caused some problems in the team's operation, although relying on Xiao Feng and Kobe's strong counterattack or difficult to win, but the score of 107:106 is enough to explain some problems.

This kind of game process also gives hope to other teams, it turns out that the Lakers are not without loopholes, maybe they also have a chance to beat the Lakers?

The day after the battle with the Nets, the Lakers announced that Kobe Bryant's old Achilles tendon injury showed signs of recurrence and put him on the injury list.

While people were expecting the Lakers to win 38 straight games against the underdog Nuggets, the Lakers capsized in the gutter, and although Xiao Feng cut a big triple-double of 20 points, 12 rebounds and 22 assists, the collapse of the bench lineup gave the Lakers a bitter taste of failure.

Since losing to the Rockets on December 12 last year, the Lakers have experienced more than two months of winning streaks, and their 37-game winning streak has set a new NBA winning streak.

At the press conference after the defeat, Xiao Feng took the initiative to take the blame on himself, believing that he was not resolute enough in the game and missed several opportunities to win.

The headline on the front page of the global sports media about the Lakers' loss was 'They Finally Lost!', and after more than two months of waiting, the headline finally had its place!

Lakers fans are not too disappointed, after all, the team has given too many surprises, and losing a game once in a while is not the end of the world!

Besides, with only three losses with 20 games left in the season, it's entirely possible to boost the season's winning streak to a hopeless 77 wins, and there's plenty of confidence in that!

Now, the NBA regular season has entered the final sprint, and everyone is preparing for the playoffs, but no matter the East or West, everyone's biggest enemy is only one, and that is the Lakers! )
