After thinking about it, Xu Xuan still mentioned this matter to Frank.

This deal is still operational, and the chips paid by the Lakers are not necessarily the three that Xu Xuan just said.

Anything can be discussed.

If the emperor can really be traded, then the Lakers will be able to form a combination of Xu Xuan + Ingram + Embiid on the outside + forward + inside in the next few years.

What do you say about this lineup...... Imagination!

The most important thing is that Ingram and Embiid do not possess the ball, they are both good support candidates, and Xu Xuan can play freely with peace of mind.

However, Frank is not very optimistic about this deal, even if he makes an offer from the 76ers, there is little hope that this deal will be completed.

People have already called the "Double Emperor Combination", and now they trade Embiid?

Leave this on hold.

Doesn't that mean that Philadelphia's previous "forbearance and humiliation" is all a joke?

That being said, Frank is also very eager for the lineup proposed by Xu Xuan.

Xu Xuan+ grew up with Ingram and Embiid, who are really beautiful to think about......

In the end, the Lakers won.

The score was 100-89.

The Lakers won quite easily, mainly because Xu Xuan led the team to play a wave of 10-0 in the third quarter, which directly opened up the point difference, and the 76ers' offensive ability is not weak, but the scoring ability is ...... How many points can you score on the inside line alone?

Just rely on Embiid to chisel and chisel, how many points can he get next year?

The interior line has never been known for scoring more points, it depends on dominance.

And who are the 76ers' main scorers now?

Eisen Ilyasova as a substitute......

And Robert Covington......

Dario Saric......

It's okay to rely on these people to play soy sauce and play role players, and really let them play 30+ minutes a game as the main force...... It's just rotten.

In this game, Embiid was the highest scorer on the 76ers' side, but it was said that he scored the most, in fact, he didn't score more than 20, shooting 7 of 14, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, and got 19 points, 2 assists, and 8 rebounds.

The free-throw shooting percentage was relatively low, only 3-of-8, and only 37.5% of the free-throw shooting percentage.

In addition to him, the 76ers' top scorers Covington and Okafor scored 14 points, Ilyasova scored 12 points, and Stauskas scored 11 points...... Other than that, no one on the 76ers' side scored in double figures...... It looks bleak.

No one scored 20 points in a game, and it can only be said that the team's scoring ability is so bad that it can't bear to look at it directly......

"As a young team, the Philadelphia 76ers still look like they still have a long way to go, and their current roster has a lot of talent potential, but now Simmons can't return to the team for a long time, and Embiid alone can't support such a heavy burden." "Of course, they need a reliable scorer, and when Simmons returns, I think it's going to be a really good help on the offensive end, but it's a shame...... Not everyone is Xu Xuan, Simmons' strength lies in combing the team, neither he nor Embiid is actually a very strong scorer, so I think our goal now should be on the number two position. ”

Pure No. 2 position, pure scorer, so that the organization has Simmons, and there is Embiid on the inside, and the overall lineup is very perfect.

And now the 76ers, don't you say without Simmons? Are the scorers all role players? Count on them how how to drop? It's too difficult.

On the Lakers' side, Xu Xuan only played for more than 20 minutes, but there was a wave of 10-0 in the third quarter, and he still scored 28 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds in this game...... Looks like a breeze? There is no effort at all.

That's the gap...... Barkley also said this: "You are all saying that I have no brains to blow Xu Xuan all day long? But in fact I'm telling the truth? Speaking of scoring ability? Xu Xuan wants to lead 99.9% of the people in this league. ”

Only the top handful of people? may not be weaker than Xu Xuan, but if he wants to say that he is better than Xu Xuan, Barkley can definitely stuff the microphone in front of him into his mouth.

......

After the game, Xu Xuan chatted with Embiid? This kid is a little floating...... Maybe he was called "the emperor", and his mentality swelled after being called too much? ignored Xu Xuan, and seemed to want to spray Xu Xuan because he lost the game......

Is this hanging man really brainless?

Or is there no emotional intelligence?

Who are you? Who is Xu Xuan?

You can't see where you are, can you......

But on second thought? There's no need for people to do anything to you, and they're not ready to be your little brother......

......

By beating the 76ers, the Lakers' record has come to 25-4.

At the same time, the Warriors have a 23-4 record and the Spurs have a 21-5 record.

The Lakers are currently top of the league, one win ahead of the Warriors and 2.5 wins ahead of the Spurs.

The Spurs may not be able to catch up for a while, but the Warriors' record is already quite close to that of the Lakers, and they are just one win away.

In the next game, if the Lakers lose and the Warriors win, then the record of the two teams will become 25-5 and 24-4, then the record of the two teams will be tied, and the Warriors will only play two fewer games than the Lakers, but the difference in wins will be the same.

And their next opponent in a seven-game road draw, the Cleveland Cavaliers, currently has an 18-6 record, which is still far from it.

Cleveland Cavaliers.

This is the first time the two teams have met this season.

To be honest, not only the players on both sides, but also the media reporters and fans have been looking forward to this game for a long time.

No one knows what kind of sparks will be sparked when James and Xu Xuan meet for the first time in the new season.

However, in terms of the current record, it must be better on the Lakers' side, leading the Cavaliers by nearly 4.5 wins!

But the Cavaliers are not soft persimmons, they don't blow or black, although I don't know when James's nickname changed from "Little Emperor" to "Thirty Old Man".

But the age of 32 is no longer young for most NBA players, and for James, the years never seem to have caused him any trouble, like Oscar winner Dai Lewis, who debuted at the peak, and at the age of 56, he can still become the first actor in history to win the Oscar three times with "Lincoln".

And James, in the 14th year of his career, is still standing at the top of the competitive league, surpassing one famous legend after another in his career, and has also become an unattainable target for the current generation of superstars.

How important is James to the Cavaliers?

Since James returned to Cleveland in the 14th season, the Cavaliers have only won four games in James' absence, and this season they have lost all games in James' absence, and the impact of the entire James team can be seen more intuitively through the performance on the court, and the team instantly changed from a top supercar to a classic car in the 80s in the time he was off the court.

It's not that Owen and Lefu can't do it......

Well, they really can't do it......

Owen learned from the pain after experiencing the ending of being almost beaten by Xu Xuan last season, and this season seems to have gone through the baptism of the finals and a serious knee injury, Owen has risen to a new stage of his career in terms of ball skills and psychological state.

As for the combination of Irving and James, who will continue to dominate the league in the future and for Irving to continue to carry the banner of the Cavaliers in the post-James era, some industry insiders, especially Cavaliers fans, also seem to be more and more confident.

This season, at least statistically, Irving is improving.

He averaged a career-high 25.2 points per game, a career-high 19.7 shots and 9.3 shots per game, and shot a career-high 47.3% from the field and 90.5% from the free-throw line.

On the surface, everything seems to be nothing to worry about, Irving is still the league's most feared scoring weapon, and with him, the Cavaliers' confidence in competing for the championship is still enough. It's just that behind the gorgeous appearance, there are some inexplicable questions that are faintly bothering Owen.

This season, Irving is averaging 5.8 assists per game, which is higher than in the past two years, but there is a common impression that Irving is now playing more solo games and less of a relationship with his teammates, especially James. Sure enough, another statistic supports the speculation of the do-gooders - so far this season, Irving's round possession has reached 30.7%, a career high. You know, such a high percentage has never occurred even in the period when Irving led the team with a single core.

What is this concept?

Of the 10 rounds, three times were made by Owen himself, not to mention how many of the remaining second ones were related to him......

All these phenomena can only indicate one problem...... That's Owen wants to be the boss!

If you have a choice, no one wants to be the second, everyone wants to be the boss, do you really think it's cool to go in and out all day long, and explore the secluded forest?

Maybe the tree-lined paths you enter and exit now will be hung with dew in the morning and evening......

Owen has wanted to be the boss for more than a day or two, and to quote a sentence called: Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone.

This is clear to some fans who can understand it, the Cavaliers management knows it, and James knows it in his heart.

So what's the current situation with the Cavaliers?

It's a bit of a distraction......

James knew very well what Owen was thinking, and he knew exactly what this little brother who was so optimistic about him that he once regarded him as his successor had in his mind.

But what about being clear?

First of all, he couldn't convince Owen, and he didn't convince him of a reason to stay and continue to be his "second child......

How so?

Say I'm going to get old, you follow, and my place will be yours sooner or later?

Fart, now the whole world knows that the future of the alliance is Xu Xuan's...... He Owen had this idea at first, and after being abused a few times, he had already given up......

Now unless Xu Xuan is suddenly injured...... suffered the same injury as Rose before, otherwise, Irving felt that his hope of succeeding James was basically zero......

Then there is another way, and that is to get the championship.

Owen is not short of money...... If you want to make money, as the champion show, where will he be short of money as the champion show who has been favored from beginning to end?

So, the contract doesn't matter to him, he wants the title.

James knew in his heart that if they had beaten the Pacers to reach the Finals last season and then won the championship, maybe Irving would not have left...... Why?

Now that you've got a champion, it's time to build a dynasty.

Then James's words are also credible, after all, the championship is won, the dynasty is established, and when James is older, maybe this league is really his...... It's a pity that there are no ifs.

The one who made it to the Finals wasn't him, it was the Pacers.

I don't care if you are the "second child" every day, I can't win the championship, why should I mess with you?

Wouldn't it be nice for me to go out and be the boss myself?

If you can be the boss, you must choose to be the boss.

That's what Owen thinks right now.

Because James knows it well, he takes the team's results very seriously this season!

Because once Irving is gone, then whoever comes, it is basically useless, and it can basically be announced in advance that his original "bring the championship back to Cleveland" rhetoric is all bullshit......

So James is enduring.

Even if Owen behaved too much, he still endured.

Only when he can't bear it anymore will he stand outside, but when Owen starts to "bare", he immediately retreats again...... That's why the current atmosphere in the Cavaliers team is very strange, the boss and the second look like each other, it's not strange that there are ghosts.

For example, you see a very beautiful young lady today, and then the two of you meet to talk in a place where no one is around, and your second brother disagrees, saying that he also wants to climb the peak, and he is really tired from exploring the secluded forest all day long...... The more it becomes a noodle, the softer it is, can the boss be happy?

Cut his heart on the spot, and I guess I have all of them.

James is now holding back and trying to give Irving as much authority as possible.

Why?

Because even if Owen wants to go, it won't be this season, and Owen still wants to fight again.

So...... With the goals of the two completely aligned, James' emotional intelligence prompted him to make a change.

And then there's another star in the Cavaliers.

Kevin Love.

Last season, Love seemed to be out of the system for more than a year after coming to the Cavaliers, and his weight loss made him struggle on both ends of the floor.

Whether it was under David Blatter or Tyronn Lue in charge, he had to adapt to a no-ball style of play and a new system, and the rehabilitation problems after a shoulder injury caused Love to find his rhythm and always looked muddy on the court.

Beginning to fear the ball from his teammates, the three-pointers in the bottom corner that he had at his fingertips during the Timberwolves days couldn't shoot the damn basket anyway, and the monology of the team began to drift into Love's ears, and the much-hyped Big Three before joining the Cavaliers seemed to be a burden for him.

What followed was constant questioning from fans, and even more radical fans launched a fundraiser on social platforms before the start of the playoffs to ask Lefu not to play. During the playoffs, Lefu still did not regain his form, and in the playoffs, his mid-range and back-to-back singles skills were suddenly lost, and the two-point shooting rate was only 36%, so that opponents began to show two steps in the rotation defense.
