26 to 19!

Xu Xuan scored the 17th point of the game!

The score in a single quarter is going to be 20!

Walker held the ball through the half court with a solemn expression.

Batum came up to cover, Xu Xuan went around directly, Cody Zeller had no choice but to go to the second cover, this time Xu Xuan couldn't get around, on the contrary, he was almost tripped by Cody Zeller's delay when he was around.

Walker got a glimmer of opportunity at a 45-degree angle after two screens – a three-pointer from the open spot!

"Huh!"

Three-point hit!

26 to 22!

There are only 4 points left.

"It seems that the Hornets' timeout has worked well, and the difference is only 4 points left, and if you keep this rhythm, it is estimated that it will be tied in a while." Before the words fell, Xu Xuan was seen facing Walker's defense and scored another three points.

29 to 22!

Xu Xuan scored 20 points in a single quarter!

Yes, horror!

It's kind of scary!

The old rascal pursed his lips, Xu Xuan's score was too special, and the score difference just showed signs of catching up, and he was immediately pulled away again, like riding a roller coaster.

The Hornets attack, Walker is actually very short, only 183, with an arm span of 1.92 meters, a standing height of 2.32 meters, and a weight of 83 kilograms.

That's what the ball is.

Xu Xuan's defensive line on the outside was once again broken by Walker, and after hitting the inside, he pulled up the lever and scored a layup.

29 to 24.

The pull rod is also Walker's regular scoring tool.

Xu Xuan came over with the ball.

There wasn't much time in the first quarter, with 58 seconds left, less than 1 minute.

In the frontcourt, Larry Nance Jr. directly lifted up to the pick-and-roll.

Russell and Ingram pose a threat on the left at the same time.

The Hornets' defense is a bit chaotic, Batum wants to help Walker defend Xu Xuan, and Ingram is eyeing it again.

At this moment, Xu Xuan suddenly hoisted the ball to Randle, who cut in from the left weak side, and dunked to score.

31-24, Xu Xuan scored another assist.

Randle's presence in the Lakers is relatively low, mainly because everyone's focus and attention are on Ingram and Russell, in fact, Zubac has received less attention than Randle.

But this young man has no complaints, he should train every day, he should compete, and there is no dissatisfaction, and he trains very hard.

Xu Xuan still appreciates such a player, Randle's achievements are not too big in Xu Xuan's view, but hard work, an all-star player is not hopeless.

Therefore, at the right time, Xu Xuan is also willing to give Randle a chance to show himself.

On the Hornets' side, Walker wanted to replicate Xu Xuan's lob just now, but unfortunately there was a mistake, and Batum was slightly delayed by Randle when he cut inside, resulting in failing to receive the lob.

The ball flies off the baseline.

Larry Nance Jr. delivers a quick baseline shot.

Xu Xuan led the frontcourt, waited for all his teammates to press up, and beckoned the inside line Larry Nance Jr. to block and dismantle.

Larry Nance Jr. obediently pulled out from the inside, Cody Zeller took advantage of Larry Nance Jr.'s absence to occupy the basket, and on the left side, Russell and Randle also blocked and dismantled, Randall pulled to the bottom corner to face Frank Kaminski, while Randle stayed on the three-point line to face Batum.

After the block was completed, Xu Xuan went down by himself and handed the ball to Larry Nance Jr.

Speaking of which, these interior players of the Lakers are not bad, not to mention how good, at least they can hold the ball a little, and they can also have a little offensive ability on the outside, or it may be because Xu Xuan is the boss, the Lakers now attach great importance to three points, including interior players, and train the last "homecoming ball" every day, other teams are one, and the Lakers have two starts, usually three......

At first, many players were stumped by this hurdle, and once Zubac had to throw the "homecoming ball" for more than an hour before throwing it......

Larry Nance Jr. was let go, and his heart was ruthless, and he threw a three-pointer directly.

"Huh!"

The goal was scored......

34 to 24, a difference of 10 points!

"Damn it!" Hornets head coach Steve Clifford gritted his teeth, and in the blink of an eye, the margin became 10 points again.

The final attack of the first quarter.

Walker takes the front court and hits a three-point shot!

At 34-27, the Lakers led by seven points heading into the second quarter.

In the second quarter, both teams switched to the bench.

On the Lakers' side, Yang Shaoxia and Lu Wei led the team, Zubac also came up, and the Hornets also replaced the bench.

With 9 minutes left in the second quarter, Walker, who had played the first quarter, came back, and Xu Xuan was not in a hurry, sitting on the sidelines to watch the play.

The lead is enough that he doesn't have to play for the time being, and the Hornets obviously want Walker to lead the team to chase points.

Walker's performance today is also very good, in the first quarter, when Xu Xuan scored 20 points in a single quarter, he was able to hand over the data of 14 points in a single quarter, strictly speaking, it is not worse than Xu Xuan.

As soon as he came on the court in the second quarter, Walker made a sudden shot and scored 6 points in succession, once tying the score.

But Yang Shaoxia's hand also came, and two consecutive three-pointers directly crushed Charlotte's dream of tying the point difference.

"It's too easy for the Lakers to win, these role players just need to play normally, and they can take the win, because the first conditions Xu Xuan created for them are too good!"

There are so many leads in the front, as long as you play steadily in the back, the odds of winning are infinite.

It wasn't until the end of the second quarter that Xu Xuan came back, and by the end of the third quarter, the Hornets had basically given up resistance, because the difference had come to 20 points.

And the old hooligan didn't wait for the end of the game to leave, but left the arena halfway through the third quarter.

But I guess he won't be able to sleep tonight......

......

In this game, Xu Xuan shot 13 of 21, including 7 of 9 three-pointers, and scored 37 points, 11 assists, and 6 rebounds.

Walker also had a good performance, shooting 13-of-26 from the field and 5-of-10 from three-point range to finish with 34 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds.

If you look at the data alone, Walker is not worse than Xu Xuan at all, and even better than Xu Xuan, but the game is so cruel, and in the end, the Hornets lost by 12 points when the Lakers bench players released water......

"Come on, man, you're playing well." Xu Xuan hugged Walker.

"Thanks, we'll have dinner later?"

"You're in for a treat?"

"If I win, I want to treat me, it's too much."

"I'm a guest."

"Then I can have a treat, but you can choose me as an All-Star, I don't want to be on the same team as LeBron."

"Hahaha, Kemba, if LeBron hears this, he'll cry......"

......

The results of the first round of all-star voting are about to come out, but for many people, there seems to be no suspense about the vote king of the east and west this year, Xu Xuan and James's votes are too high, although the first round of voting has not ended, but there seems to be no suspense.

Walker is naturally also interested in being an All-Star, and compared to LeBron, he really wants to be on a team with Xu Xuan.

"Kemba, do you have any thoughts of leaving the Hornets next season?"

“...... No, I have a four-year contract, and I'm only in my third year next year, so I can't leave if I want to, and I don't want to go......"

"What's so good about Charlotte, small city, Michael is too discerning, they don't think you alone can beat Cleveland, right?"

Kemba Walker shook his head: "Even so, I don't plan to leave Charlotte for the time being, after all, he chose me and gave me a chance, and I'm quite grateful to him." ”

“..... That was probably the best decision Michael made since becoming the boss, hahaha."

"Of course, that's what I think too, hahaha."

Xu Xuan and Walker chatted quite happily, mainly because both of them had the "black material" of Old Qiao's gang leader, and it may not be interesting to talk about anything else, but it was too interesting to talk about gossip, not to mention the gossip of Old Qiao's gang leader.

According to Walker's uncertain news, he had seen at least ten times, and the female companions around Old Qiao's gang leader were different, and the relationship was quite close...... I saw two of them together again......

Xu Xuan was a little surprised, how old is Old Qiao Gang Leader this year?

At the age of 53, he is still so "immortal", sharp enough.

......

This time, the Lakers came out for seven consecutive away games, the Hornets were the fifth, and there were two more games to follow, and then it was the Christmas game.

And this time the Lakers have a remarkable record of seven consecutive visits, so far, they have only lost one, counting the Hornets have won four in a row.

For this kind of back-to-back road games, more than half of them are considered successful, and now the Lakers have met the conditions for success.

The overall record has also come to 27-4, ranking first in the league, the Warriors' current record is 25-4, and the Lakers still maintain a one-game lead, but this lead is really not too big, and if one is not accurate, the Warriors will catch up.

At the same time, Xu Xuan once again won the best of the week in the West, and the best of the week in the East was given to DeRozan.

In this way, Xu Xuan has already won the best of the second week and the best of the month this season...... It's a little scary.

There's no way, Xu Xuan's average of 37.8 points, 8.9 assists, and 6.1 rebounds per game so far is really terrifying, and the results of leading the team are so good, I can't give the best this week......

Many people are speculating whether Xu Xuan's average points per game this season can go up to 40, if the average points per game is 40, then there will be no suspense about the regular season MVP, but the average score per game in the season is too difficult, Xu Xuan estimates that he only has the ability to rise a notch, maybe he can reach it, but now the difficulty is a bit high.

......

After playing the Hornets on the 20th, the Lakers stayed in Charlotte for a day of rest, and only on the afternoon of the 21st did they collectively fly to the next game venue, Miami.

Relatively speaking, in the United States, which has entered the rhythm of winter, Miami is undoubtedly a very popular city for players.

As soon as I got off the plane, Yingmian was greeted by a warm breeze in the western city, which was very comfortable.

If they could, they would rather stay here all the time.

Frank didn't arrange too much training, and when he arrived, he directly announced that he would disband and rest, and train tomorrow morning.

Xu Xuan returned to the hotel and flipped through the information of the Heat team.

The Heat team has changed a lot this year, first of all, the departure of the old Wade, which is a bit unexpected, just like Rose was traded, many people actually think that Wade should retire in the Heat until retirement, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, the situation changed, and Wade left.

Wade only signed a one-year, $20 million contract with the Heat last summer, and he is hoping to get a big contract as a free agent this summer. He's 34 years old and really not in his prime, but as the soul of a team that has played for the Heat for 13 years and won three championships, he hopes to be cherished and compensated by the team before the end of his career - Wade has never been the Heat's highest-paid player in the year.

But the Heat apparently don't think so. They gave Whiteside a four-year salary cap of 98 million immediately after the start of free agency, and then chased Durant, and the contract extension negotiations with Wade were quite unsmooth.

The Heat only offered Wade an annual salary of 10 million at the beginning, which made Wade very angry. Although the price was later raised to 40 million for 2 years, the Nuggets have already offered more than 50 million for 2 years.

Wade hopes to get the attention of the Heat, but the Heat has always been tough in negotiations, even if the veteran is the totemic symbol of the Heat, even if he has become a representative of Miami, Pat Riley said let it go, ruthless enough!

Otherwise, why is it said that the NBA is a place where interests are paramount, Wade is old, Pat Riley thinks Wade is not worth the price, relatively speaking, Cuban is much better than Pat Riley, at least people give enough face to the old driver.

In addition to Wade's departure, the core players of the Heat team last season basically left, Ruel Deng, Gerald Green, Joe Johnson...... Of all the veterans, Riley didn't leave any of them.

In addition to renewing Haslem on a one-year contract worth $4 million.

Haslem is the Heat's other soul core in addition to Wade.

In recent seasons, as he has aged, Haslem has played more of a role as a mentor to the Heat's young players and a leader in the locker room, and the 36-year-old has struggled to perform on the court. Last season, he averaged just 7.0 minutes per game, 1.6 points and 2.0 rebounds.

It is worth mentioning that due to Wade's switch to the Bulls this summer, Wade ranks first in the Heat's total appearances and is likely to be taken away by Haslem in the 2016-17 season. Wade played in a total of 855 regular-season games for the Heat in his career, and the two were separated by just 41 games.

Haslem currently ranks second in team history for total games played (814), second in total minutes played (21,242 minutes), and first in team history in terms of total rebounds (5,665), offensive rebounds (1,592) and defensive rebounds (4,073).

Letting go of Wade and leaving Haslem can only show that Riley still has a brain, if Wade is released and Haslem is also released, then Riley is estimated to be sprayed and exploded......

Now one goes and one stays, which is the best option for Riley, and the salary space is out, so that he can fully focus on developing young people.
