Chapter 238: Shameful Cowardly Behavior

On March 10, the NBA regular season resumed. The Los Angeles Lakers, who are still at home www.biquge.info, have the last chance to play the Cleveland Cavaliers this season.

If both teams fail to reach the finals at the same time, this will be the last time the teams meet each other this season.

Of course, it will also be the last time the 23rd and 24th meet each other this season.

has been an opponent for a long time, and James and Kobe cherish this confrontation.

The starting line-ups of both teams were-

Away Cavaliers: Kyrie Irving, J.R. Smith, LeBron James, Channing Frye, Tristan Thompson

Home Lakers: Jordan Clarkson, Yi Feng, Kobe Bryant, Julius Randle, Roy Hibbert

Kevin Love is sidelined with a left knee injury and was replaced by Channing Frye, who has just arrived with the Cavaliers.

At the start of the first quarter, the Cavaliers quickly got into the groove, and Irving hit a jumper to help the team open the scoring.

On the Lakers' side, the momentum is not weak at all, and Hibbert's hook hand is also returned to color.

After that, Bryant began his personal performance moment, and he performed three picturesque jump shots to score points.

However, the Cavaliers, who already have a strong team temperament and mentality, were not disturbed by Kobe. Under James' organization, the Cavaliers have always been in control of the initiative.

Compared to James who uses passes to drive his teammates, Kobe Bryant likes to use scoring to motivate his teammates.

More than 6 minutes into the first quarter, Bryant used his nimble feet to shake off James for a layup, which caused the audience to cheer at the Staples Center Arena.

But the Cavaliers were completely unmoved, with Frye and J.R. Smith scoring three points in a row, and the Cavaliers quietly widened the gap to 10 points.

Kobe Bryant single-handedly with the Cavaliers, Kobe Bryant has the upper hand. Although it has always been Kobe's style to challenge the world by himself, the old man in the family has been bullied, and Yi Feng, as a young man, cannot stand idly by.

Later in the first quarter, Yi Feng stepped up, he hit a three-point shot, and a floating breakthrough on the rebound to help the Lakers chase points.

Hurtas, who came off the bench, also scored 4 points in a row on the inside and outside shots. A wave of 10-0 small **, the Lakers have instantly erased the point difference!

But James, who is physically rebellious, still stays on the court and plays with the bench during the rotation time, and the substitutes on the Lakers' side have no way to deal with him whose strength is not in the same dimension at all.

James made two free throws, and after the first quarter, the Cavaliers temporarily led the Lakers by two points at 33-31.

As soon as the second quarter came up, the Cavaliers hit three points from Matthew Dellavedova and Irving successively, leading the team to an 8-2 small **.

But then, the Lakers, led by Louis Williams and Nick Young, returned a 9-0 offensive wave to overtake the score.

At this time, the score of the two sides was 41:42, and the Cavaliers temporarily trailed by 1 point.

Immediately after, Frye took up and down with a knife and went into the net with three points to help the knights stabilize the battle again. After coming to the Cavaliers, Frye's three-point shooting became particularly stable, perhaps because James and Irving were too good at squeezing the opponent's defensive space.

Later in the quarter, James made a force, he first received a throw from J.R. Smith and completed a difficult one-handed slam in the air.

Next, he hit a three-pointer in the bottom corner and smashed the ball into the basket for the third time with a breakaway dunk.

Seeing that James finally began to cut points, Kobe, who had been silent for half a quarter, was also aroused. He made two difficult turnover jumpers in a row, and also faced James's block, shot a three-pointer, and also scored 7 points in a row!

The confrontation between No. 23 and No. 24 was one of the most exciting shots of the game.

At halftime, the Cavaliers temporarily led the Lakers by two points at 61:59.

The second half of the game began quickly, and the two teams changed sides and fought again.

Kobe Bryant came up and fired on firepower, hitting three points and jumpers, and the score exceeded 20 points at once.

However, on the defensive end, in the face of the Cavaliers' three-point rain, the Lakers will not have a good countermeasure. Jr-Smith hit a three-pointer to bring the Cavaliers' lead to six.

In the subsequent game, the two sides started a tug-of-war, and on the Lakers' side, Yi Feng continued Kobe's offensive firepower and continuously scored points on the outside. Soon he became the second Lakers player to score more than 20 points.

On the Cavaliers' side, Iman Shambaugh and James scored baskets one after another and continued to maintain a slight lead. Brandon Buss, who came on late in the third quarter, jumped into the net, and Tristan Thompson returned the favor with a foul.

At the end of the third quarter, the Cavaliers led the Lakers by 4 points at 93-89.

As soon as the fourth quarter came up, the Lakers brazenly launched a counterattack. Yi Feng forced a break through J.R. Smith twice, hit a layup once, and caused a defensive foul on the Cavaliers once, hitting both free throws and scoring four points in a row.

A wave of 4-0 small **, the Lakers directly equalized the score.

After Yi Feng's third breakthrough, the Cavaliers' defensive circle shrank significantly, Yi Feng threw the ball back of his head, and Clarkson's wing three-pointer fell.

With this three-pointer, the Lakers took a three-point lead.

Seeing that the Lakers were gaining momentum, James also began to exert his strength, and after a steal, he rode directly on a fast attack, Yi Feng and Nick Young didn't pull it, and after breaking free, they also scored a layup.

Such a strong 21 directly suppressed the momentum of the Lakers, and the Cavaliers carried out a powerful counterattack under the organization of James.

Frye hit two three-pointers from the outside, and J.R. Smith burst into the basket for a difficult pull-up layup. During this period, the Lakers only scored two points through two free throws by Yi Feng, and the Cavaliers re-established the lead through this 8-2 small **.

Then the Lakers replaced Nick Young for Kobe.

Kobe Bryant drew a shooting foul on James as soon as he started the fourth quarter, and he scored two points on both free throws. After that, he defended the answer-ball that James responded to, and personally grabbed the backcourt rebound and advanced with the ball.

Kobe Bryant handed the ball to Yi Feng, who held the ball and faced Jr Smith, without too much hesitation, left and right to cut directly and forced a breakthrough.

J.R. Smith, as the league's famous nerve knife, is indeed a scoring ability that cannot be ignored, but his defense is a problem. However, after coming to the Cavaliers, he seems to have been tamed by James, and he is very different on and off the court, shooting more and more consistently, and defending more and more hard.

At the end of the day, though, he's a scoring player, and he's still slightly inferior to Iman Shambaugh's defensive abilities. It can be seen from the defensive effect of these two against Yi Feng tonight.

Although he is not capable enough, Jr-Smith still has a positive attitude, and even if he is taken by one step, he gritted his teeth and chased after him.

But Yi Feng obviously won't let him have a chance to catch up with him, in the fast break just now, he didn't even pull James's layup, and completely realized the horror of "Emperor". But this can't make him afraid, even if the Lakers' just rising momentum is suppressed again, he is still scrappy.

He felt so excited!

When you get the ball, you want to dunk hard!

Although the protagonists of this game are No. 23 and No. 24, after inadvertently intervening in the duel between these two, Yi Feng's competitive gene has completely awakened!

The Cavaliers now keep Tristan Thompson under the basket, and the rest of the four are scattered from the perimeter.

After Yi Feng cut in suddenly, he faced Tristan Thompson's reinforcement.

In fact, at this time, Yi Feng didn't care who was defending himself in front of him, even if it was the rebirth of the epic giant beast Wilt Chamberlain, he would not hesitate to rush forward after adding up his speed.

Tristan Thompson was the No. 4 pick in 2011, and the physical test data at the time of the draft was two meters and three meters tall barefoot and two meters and one and a half meters in the armspan.

Coupled with the spring man attribute of Yi Feng Explosion, Thompson could only accept the humiliation of being blocked.

Such a powerful goal completely detonated the entire Staples Center. People cheered, screamed, and the noise was deafening. The momentum on the Lakers' side has also risen again, and even if James responds with a dunk, it can't be suppressed at all.

The Lakers' side fought three lives, and finally managed to defend the home court, allowing the Cavaliers to return with defeat.

In this game, No. 23 James scored 29 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists, and No. 24 Kobe Bryant was 11 of 16, efficiently scoring 26 points and 5 rebounds, and there were no mistakes.

Whether it's judging by the number of meetings between No. 23 and No. 24 in history, or from the strength of both the Cavaliers and Lakers, the Cavaliers should have been the winner tonight. But Yi Feng's efforts successfully rewrote the script.

From the first meeting between No. 24 and No. 24 to tonight's second matchup, the number of times the two have faced each other directly is 22.

In more than ten years, they have only played each other 22 times, which is really not much, first, because the Cavaliers and Lakers belong to the East and West regions, and they only play twice a year in the regular season; Second, if the All-Star Game is not counted, it is a pity that the two have never played each other in the playoffs. Then again, if the two teams were to meet in the playoffs, it would be the Mars vs. Earth finals meeting.

Not counting tonight's game, in terms of record, James defeated Kobe Bryant 15-6; In terms of statistics, James averaged 73 rebounds per game, and Kobe Bryant averaged 52 assists per game.

Whether it's the record or the stats, James is in the lead in the head-to-head against Kobe. Considering that Kobe Bryant's career is running out, the situation between the two is unlikely to change much. However, winning once tonight can be regarded as allowing Kobe Bryant to save some face a little.

After winning the game against the Cavaliers, the Lakers' winning streak accumulated to seven, and their efforts also cemented their fifth place in the West. Although the trailblazers behind were chasing fiercely, they were still unable to pose a threat for the time being.

On March 13, the Lakers continued to sit on the home court and welcomed the challenge of the New York Knicks.

The Knicks are 27-40 and have missed the playoffs. Including the 2013-14 season, they missed the playoffs for the third consecutive season.

Although Carmelo Anthony can cut 20 or even 30 like melons and vegetables in every game, everyone looks at him more and more pity, and after coming to the Knicks, Anthony will inevitably fall. As the largest metropolis in the United States, the Knicks did not have the strength to match New York, and they did not know how old they were in the sunk......

Although Anthony had an impressive performance, scoring 26 points and 12 rebounds, the Lakers, who were superior, managed to hold on to their home court and snapped their eight-game winning streak.

On March 15, the Lakers played at home against the Sacramento Kings.

The Kings basically missed the playoffs this season, but in the face of such a Kings team, the Lakers, who were in a winning streak, overturned at home.

In this game, Kobe Bryant was rested, Darren Collison got 22 points and 6 assists, Cousins got 32 points and 18 rebounds to wreak havoc on the inside, and Guy scored 20 points.

The Kings ended their five-game losing streak by beating the Lakers.

Yi Feng had a mediocre performance in this game, scoring 28 points on 10-of-21 shooting, but had 5 turnovers.

After the game, Yi Feng was once again called out by Agalie Ranadave, who was "on the march". Since the last "date", the two have exchanged contact information, and they usually contact each other when they have time, and they are much more familiar with each other.

Therefore, Yi Feng did not have too much psychological burden for this reunion.

In the noble and elegant café, well-behaved waiters shuttle back and forth, accompanied by elegant lights, and melodious piano music also floats in the air.

Ajiali took a sip of coffee, and her big eyes stared at Yi Feng with sparkling eyes, as if she wanted to see him through the inside and out.

"Why are you looking at me like this, do I have dirt on my face?"

Yi Feng couldn't ignore her burning gaze.

"Yi, let's cheat like this, your girlfriend won't care, right?"

Steal...... Cheating?!

How can a friend not care about her boyfriend's cheating? Aren't you talking nonsense?

Yi Feng immediately wanted to blurt out this sentence, but he soon reacted, why did he acquiesce to the statement that Ajiali was "cheating"?

"Uh, this...... It's too ugly to say 'cheating' or something, right? We're just a regular gathering of friends! ”

"Ordinary party? Then tell me, why do you have Durex in your pocket? ”

"How could I have such a thing!"

Yi Feng blushed suddenly, he was not weak-hearted, but embarrassed. Because when he was leaving the arena, he ran into Louis Williams, Yi Feng casually said that he wanted to go out to dinner with friends, and then Williams stuffed a few Durex into his pocket......

Ajiali sneered, "You don't have to hide it, I saw the contents of your pocket just now." ”

"Tell me, have you booked a hotel tonight? Let me guess which one? Hilton? Or InterContinental? ”

Yi Feng hurriedly interrupted her, "What do you say, I said that this is just an ordinary party, what do you do to book a hotel?" ”

Ajiali said: "I know, you don't want to say it now, just to surprise me!" What a careful man, pay attention to creating small surprises for women in life! ”

"But don't run away like you did last time, that's a shameful coward!" (To be continued.) )
