Seven wins in a row!

The Lakers have become the only team in the league to win in a row for the second time in a row!

So far, the Spurs have lost two, the Warriors have lost two, the Clippers have lost five games, the Trail Blazers have lost two, and the Raptors, Wizards and other teams in the East have also won and lost.

Only two teams are currently on a winning streak and are unbeaten!

The Lakers are one of them!

And the other is the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Now everyone is speculating about who of these two teams will break first, whether it is the Lakers or the Cavaliers.

"I think it's the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers look stable, but they're actually not that stable, you see the games they won, 94-91, three-point win over the Raptors; 102 to 101, one point win over the 76ers, the biggest point difference in these games was the first game against the Knicks, but the Knicks ...... Everyone understands it, and the Lakers I never doubted whether they could make the playoffs, Xu Xuan's ability to lead the team, everyone has seen it last season, as long as there are no mistakes, there should be no big problem in making the playoffs, but I really didn't expect that they could play a seven-game winning streak so far, and even in my previous expectations, the Lakers can win one of the first six games, which is already a blessing. ”

TNT, Kenny Smith gushes about analysis.

"The Cavaliers' lineup looks very good, star-studded, James is alone, and there are all pitchers outside, but if they don't feel good, it will collapse, and the Cavaliers' lineup has no defense, lacking enough defensive core, if they really meet Curry and Xu Xuan who shoot like this, whether they can withstand this firepower is a huge problem."

"And the Lakers are different, the Lakers we say is a very young team, a team that is too young, this kind of young team often has a characteristic, it is very smooth when the wind is good, and it is also very crotch-pulling when it is adversity.

In other words, if this Lakers team wins like this, they can continue to win, because their confidence is beaten, no one is afraid, they don't think they will lose, in this state, everyone can play 100% or even 120% of their strength, but if they encounter any setbacks, they want to get up very slowly, because they are inexperienced, and they expect teams like the Spurs and Hawks to adjust and change in time.

So, for them, either they just keep winning, or they are terminated and doomed, and the third one may be almost none. ”

For Kenny Smith's words, Barkley and O'Neal agreed, indeed, the Lakers can win the first six games and win the seventh, what do they rely on?

It's momentum!

The momentum of the winning streak!

You must know that in the last game, the role players of the Lakers played better than the role players of the Warriors, and the role players of the Warriors led by Brother Yi have been baptized in the Finals more than once, and they are better than the Lakers' rookies in terms of experience and ability, but in fact, these rookies have compared Iguodala to them, this is the momentum!

The Lakers are now with an indomitable momentum, both in feel and in better shape than the Warriors, so they can win in the end.

Moreover, the next opponents of the two teams are not the same, the Lakers' next opponents are the Mavericks, Kings, Pelicans, and Timberwolves...... None of these teams are on the playoff roster, which means that at least in the next four games, the Lakers' opponents are not that strong.

On the Cavaliers' side, the next opponents are the Hawks, Wizards, Hornets, and Raptors...... Unfortunately, the Cavaliers' four opponents, except for one Hornets, are all on the predicted playoff roster......

Relatively speaking, the game between the two sides is definitely a little more difficult for the Cavaliers to play, in this case, it is difficult to say that they will definitely win, they will be able to maintain their winning streak, and any accident can happen. ”

Kenny Smith continued, and the conversation shifted.

"But if the Lakers really go on a winning streak and the Cavaliers end their winning streak, it will be fun."

His words were playful: "The Cavaliers were finished, and the Lakers were on a winning streak...... I guess someone from a certain station is going to cry. ”

"Hahaha, they deserve to cry to death, who makes them like to have a hard mouth?" Barkley laughed and said: "Drain the Lakers from the eighth, squeeze Xu Xuan out of the top five, someone from a certain station, now his face is swollen." ”

Barkley was the happiest, at that time, all major TV stations were lining up the strength of players and teams, TNT and ESPN were simply two extremes, TNT ranked Xu Xuan first, and ESPN ranked Xu Xuan outside the top five.

The strength of the team, ESPN, is also extremely unoptimistic, ranking the Lakers in ninth ...... It's a disgusting ranking.

O'Neal said: "If the Lakers really go on a winning streak, it will definitely help the growth of these role players, and if you lose, you will lose confidence if you lose too much." ”

"Winning more, letting them know what it feels like to win, they're going to chase that feeling themselves."

Kenny Smith and Barkley nodded, and Barkley suddenly said, "By the way, did you read that little guy's tweet?" ”

"You mean the Kings one?"

"That's right, it's him."

"Look, what do you want to say Charles."

'I don't want to say anything, I just think that young players shouldn't say these things now, maybe you think so, but there's no need to say it and let everyone know that as a young player you just play your own game, play your own ball, does the rest have so much to do with him? I don't think so. Barkley said bluntly.

The words were not polite, O'Neill also said: "Most of the young players like to do their own thing, but only a few people do things, it is your right to speak, but the problem is that no one wants to listen to you. ”

Ahem, maybe everyone doesn't understand here, because yesterday, after a game, the Rookie Makis Chris, the eighth pick of the Kings this year, said in an interview that there were some things that could not be said.

"The game didn't play well, there are so many words, I think the young players are really lacking enough awe."

"It's better to do less of this kind of thing, you have the right to speak, but it doesn't really mean that you can say anything."

Barkley said solemnly: "Look at Xu Xuan, what have you caused so far?" Did you do anything that shouldn't have been done? I suggest, these young players should learn more from Xu Xuan, do what they should do, concentrate on playing their own games, and get those who don't have all day long, are you here to play? ”

Kenny Smith nodded: "This is true, learn more from Xu Xuan, young players should be like Xu Xuan." ”

Xu Xuan can be said to be a model of young players.

"Today's young players haven't experienced any social beatings, and at that time, we were all beaten all the way, so we know what to do and what not to do, unlike them, who live too comfortably, and can get a lot of annual salary by playing casually." O'Neill said.

"Soon, in two days, the Lakers' next opponent will be the King, the one called Marcis Chriss, I hope you seize the opportunity, study hard, how to be a good player."

......

O'Neill and Barkley's "model pacesetter" - Xu Xuan didn't know that he had become "someone else's child" in their mouths, and he was now training.

In the gym, the gym in the morning is still very lively, Xu Xuan's fame naturally goes without saying, and the people who exercise inside recognize it and greet one after another, "It's Xu!" ”

"You had a great performance yesterday!"

"I heard that you come to this gym a lot, but what I didn't expect is true."

"Can we take a picture together?"

Xu Xuan met the simple requirements of the "healthy friends", and then noticed that there was a group of women with good figures exercising in the open space inside...... Yoga?

"And yoga here?" Xu Xuan asked the "Jianyou" next to him.

"It seems to be a free experience today, and the female coach is a guide, so there will probably be a fee in the future, right? That kind of slow exercise, I think it's only for women. ”

"Kenyou" explained.

Xu Xuan's face darkened when he heard this, and he was about to try whether practicing yoga could improve the sensitivity of his body.

For him, the current training is no longer enough, he needs more now!

Xu Xuan's training is cyclical.

The training on the sixth day of each cycle is the training of shooting posture and shooting action, in which the feet, legs, knees, waist, back, shoulders, elbows and other movements are coordinated in the shooting force...... It is the key to training, and this training method is the most difficult to complete on the sixth day of training.

However, the further he goes, the higher Xu Xuan's own requirements are, and his shooting actions are becoming more and more standard.

In the morning, it is basic training, and in the afternoon, it is a mid-range jumper on the left, a mid-distance jumper on the right, a baseline hook on the right, and a free-throw line hook...... After a total of 500 movements in 1 hour and a strict level of shooting training, Xu Xuan will start three-point training, but after being promoted from three-point talent to diamond, Xu Xuan feels that he should add some material to the evening time, and yoga is another training method he thought of.

Yoga can increase the flexibility of the body and better prevent injuries.

These big men in the NBA are all muscular men, and if I come to a "soft" one, maybe it can work wonders.

However, Xu Xuan's yoga training was not successful, the female instructor was an amateur, not a master, Xu Xuan had already told Carson to ask him to contact the master of yoga, and it was best to invite him to come over for a period of time.

The time for practice passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the night of the 8th, the last game of the Lakers' three-game home game.

The opponent is the Dallas Mavericks.

The Mavericks have changed a lot this season, but in the absence of a young man with a certain number nickname in the future, it is impossible to rely on an elderly veteran driver to make a difference.

Speaking of old drivers, this year Wade left the Heat, Kevin Durant and Derrick Rose also changed owners; In the case of Kobe Bryant and Duncan's retirement, many people were asking at the time, where is the future of Dirk Nowitzki?

The answer is: stay in the calf.

The total price of the new contract rises to $50 million over two years.

It is reported that the second year of this new contract is a team option, and only $5 million of the $25 million in the second year is fully guaranteed.

James and Durant chose to huddle together in their prime, Wade was ejected in his twilight years, and now there are only a handful of superstars in the league who have been on a team for the rest of their lives, but Nowitzki and the Mavericks will follow the same path as Duncan and the Spurs, and will always be together.

Whenever and wherever you ask "Dirk's future", Maverick boss Cuban has the answer: "Dirk will not go anywhere." ”

Cuban once said, "Dirk and Dallas, Dallas and Dirk are synonymous." Dirk's stay in Dallas is an undisputed issue. Dirk will get everything he wants. I'll give him whatever he wants,"

When the veteran driver decided to jump out of his contract this summer, the Mavericks owner even jokingly said, "Whatever Nowitzki wants, you can do it." I've already told him that if you want to be the head coach of the team, it's perfectly fine, and we'll let Mr. Carlisle move his position. Nowitzki has done so much for this team and he's won the chance. ”

Previously, the old driver, like Wade and Duncan, took the initiative to reduce his salary in order to strengthen the team, and the last contract he signed with the Mavericks was only worth 25 million for 3 years. But he has a deep friendship with Cuban, and their relationship is more equal than Wade and Riley's, because the two grew up with the team, and that camaraderie sometimes transcends the relationship between superiors and subordinates. Wade doesn't get the respect of the Heat, but the Mavericks definitely don't have any disdain for Dirk.

Therefore, even if the Mavericks are not as strong as the Warriors, not as good as the Cavaliers or as good as the Spurs, the prospects for winning the championship are not so good, and the old driver is reluctant to leave. He played here for 18 years and left so many memories that are difficult to part. The team didn't force him to go, and still valued his contribution so much, and made a generous enough annual salary offer, so why talk about breaking up?

Xu Xuan actually admires such a player who can really stay in a team for the rest of his life, this is really not a problem that can be solved by what salary, first of all, the player's ability, you must maintain your personal ability for ten years, otherwise it is not a question of whether you want to leave or not, if you can't do it, the team will drive you away.

Secondly, it involves getting along, just like the old driver and Cuban, they are really treated as friends, which Xu Xuan can't do, how much do you say he has to do with Jenny Bass now?

Inexistent!

Once Xu Xuan's performance is a little worse, or Jenny Bass is doing something, neither side will take into account any emotion and face.

That thing is worthless in the face of profit.

And the old driver and Kuban really became friends and buddies, which is very rare.
