This year's all-star rumors were released relatively early, mainly because of the restructuring and the need to warm up.

However, as soon as the content of this restructuring came out, it was unanimously approved by many fans.

After all, it's not just the players who are tired of playing in the east and the west, but the audience is tired of watching the same shows every year, how good it is now, there is suspense, excitement, and topicality.

It's so much better than what it was before.

The revamped All-Stars have attracted a lot of attention, and the game still has to go on.

The Lakers' next game against the Golden State Warriors is two games in a row, and they will first go to the Bay Area as a guest, then return to Los Angeles the next day, and continue to play the Warriors at Staples Arena on the third day.

Speaking of which, Xu Xuan was also a little speechless, the Lakers and the Warriors had a total of four games this season, but three of them were played within a month after the start of the game, and the remaining one was the Lakers' 82nd game of the season......

This schedule is really ecstatic, either don't play, or just play enough, but also arrange the last game of the regular season between the two sides...... It's not a good idea to get to the playoffs......

However, the Lakers carry the power of fifteen consecutive wins, and it is not possible to say that they are afraid of the Warriors, they have won one game before, and in this second game, the Lakers are still very confident of winning.

......

"Ladies and gentlemen."

In the pre-game meeting, Frank clapped his hands after organizing and watching the last game of the Warriors, attracting everyone's attention: "You can see it, everyone, in the last game of the Warriors, no one scored 30 points alone, or even only one player who scored 25 points, but in one game, they scored a total of 120 points, what is this concept?" That is, if they want to, these 120 points can completely become 130 points, or even 140 points. ”

Frank knocked on the table and glanced around, "Don't think I'm alarmist, their Stephen, their Clay, all out, 30 points, 40 points, do you think it's difficult for them?" ”

Coach, you think highly of them, even if they score 30 or 40 points, it is not so easy, of course, on the premise of feeling good...... Xu Xuan silently didn't speak, and continued to play for Frank.

Can't you lose face with your own head coach?

However, Xu Xuan disagreed, and the rest of the Lakers team was not as easy as him.

The Warriors are still a very strong opponent for them, and it can be said that in the hearts of all Western teams at the moment, the Warriors are undoubtedly in first place, and the Spurs are only in second place.

The Warriors are currently recognized as the best team in the league!

Last season, it is estimated that there will be many people who refute this, but this season, there is really no one to refute.

After Durant joined, he has made up for the last shortcoming of the Warriors.

This is a warrior with no flaws!

"Look at their last game, Klay scored 25 points, Stephen only scored 22 points, the two of them combined for a total of 29 shots, but they scored 47 points, this efficiency, I don't need to say more, right?" Frank continued at his own pace.

Praise first, let them feel pressure, this is called suppression of desire.

"They're a strong team, they've lost just two of their 14 games so far, they're the only Big Four team in the league, they have the strength that the whole league is trembling about, but," Frank glanced around, and when he saw the dignified faces of the crowd, he felt that "Young" was almost over, and he was about to start "suppressing".

The rest of the Lakers looked up...... Xu Xuan looked at Frank silently...... Here it is, the show begins......

"However, they are so strong, but they are our men...... defeated" Frank laughed: "They lost 2 of 14 games, we won all 15 games, they have the second record in the league, and we have the first record in the league!" ”

Enough to hang! Frank, you said that, and Cole knew he was going to beat you to death...... Xu Xuan grinned.

But the rest of the Lakers laughed...... Seeing the head coach say this about the opponent, regardless of anything else, my heart is still quite refreshing...... At the very least, they are really not afraid.

"A lot of people out there are saying we're going to lose the number one spot in the league because we're going to lose the next two games." Frank waved his hand: "I don't believe it anyway, I don't know if you believe it, and besides, not only do I not believe it, I also think that we will win both games!"

Do you believe this? ”

"Faith!"

Naturally, there was a high-pitched roar, and the emotions were mobilized.

Lao Fu is doing well, this chicken soup for the soul will be ready...... Xu Xuan complained in his heart, he still remembered that when he was in the Pacers in his first year, Lao Fu would only say "team, team, team", and he was very serious, but now, it has obviously changed a lot......

That's right.

In Xu Xuan's heart, this is the kind of head coach he wants, tactics are only one aspect of coaching, and in basketball games, tactics are important, but far from football games and rugby games, in basketball games, skills and tactics can only account for about 20%, the remaining 30% are in the formation, and 50% depends on the players.

That's why basketball head coaches aren't as popular as football head coaches......

"I am very confident in this game, especially after watching the video of their last game, the stronger they are, the more we can win! They're great, and we're the best at winning! And we have one more advantage over them, even if we lose the next game, we win back in the next game, the first place in the league is still ours, and they still can't take it away! We have fault tolerance, they don't! ”

Coach, if you say that, they're going to swell, you should say we're going to lose, and you're going to stimulate them...... Xu Xuan muttered in his heart.

However, there is nothing wrong with Frank's approach, which is to analyze the situation clearly, tell you everything, and let you be prepared.

"Xu, Russell, Matt, Randle, Yi, this game is still the start of the five of you, the others are ready to play at any time, it will be a wonderful game, and it will be a difficult game!"

Frank arranged the starting lineup, and Ingram silently bowed his head and sighed, this game was without him......

However, he also understands that Frank is not a cronyistic person, he values ability, and Barnes is better than him in both defense and offense, and in ordinary games, Frank will also give him the opportunity to start, but in a key game like this, Frank needs to make sure that nothing goes wrong!

......

They're in Golden State now, it's a back-to-back game, and after a night's rest after playing the Thunder last night, they set off early this morning to get to Golden State.

At 7 p.m., the game begins at Oracle Arena.

In the previous game, the Lakers were at home, this was the first time they came to the Warriors' home court this season, and as soon as the Lakers came out of the players' tunnel, they felt the frenzied atmosphere, and the entire Oracle Arena, the 20,000-person venue, was all wearing the Warriors' home jersey!

This kind of basketball atmosphere is not worse than that of Staples Arena.

"It is said that the Warriors' market value has soared and their fame has soared in recent years, and they are no worse than our teams, so it doesn't seem to be an exaggeration." Ci Shiping was very interested, chatting with Barnes.

"The Warriors have indeed accumulated a lot of fame in recent years, and they can be regarded as a few pacesetters in the league at present." Barnes nodded.

There are only a few pacesetters, and the Warriors, strictly speaking, are not as deep as giants like Los Angeles and the Celtics, but in recent years, the market value has indeed soared relatively quickly.

In recent years, the Warriors have been out of the limelight because of Curry's appearance, and in fact, no one ever imagined that a first-round No. 7 pick could metamorphose to the point where it is today...... In a sense, Curry's growth trajectory is a bit similar to Xu Xuan's, except that Xu Xuan's side is faster and more fierce.

......

"It's a battle of dragons and tigers!" Looking at the players on both sides who have begun to warm up, the four TNT commentators are also ready.

"There's no doubt that the Warriors are looking for revenge, and their previous loss to the Lakers was one of the few games they've lost. Therefore, the Warriors must want to win back, and the gap between the first and second is still quite large, if they can, the Warriors must want to be the first, not the second. Kenny Smith said.

Nobody wants to be second, and no one remembers it, which the Warriors, who won 73 last season, felt the most.

"I think Kenny you're right, the Warriors must be revenge in this game, I read Green's tweet before the game, he said that he won't be as impulsive as before this game, resulting in a penalty, but I'm afraid he may not be able to bear it." O'Neill laughed.

In the last game when the Lakers beat the Warriors, in the eyes of many, a large part of the reason was because Green was fouled for a foul, and the Warriors lost that game because they lost the core axis.

It makes sense to think so...... What is the strength of the Warriors' lineup?

Strong is that they have no weakness anywhere.

And if there is a missing link in this flawless lineup, it will not work, not to mention the point of Green.

If Durant can only be regarded as the icing on the cake, then Green's point is too critical, without him, many of the Warriors' tactics can only exist in fantasy, and there is no way to implement them.

So, including the Warriors players, they weren't convinced of the game before they lost.

They don't even think they're going to lose the second game!

......

Curry is in charge of the home court, so he took the initiative to come over and say hello to Xu Xuan.

"How's it going, are you ready to be beaten by me?" Curry still looks improper.

"Stephen, I haven't seen you for a few days, what's the matter, the thick skin is resistant to beating?" Xu Xuan rolled his eyes.

Curry put his arm around Xu Xuan's shoulders and pouted around: "It's not that I'm scaring you, look, tens of thousands of people on my side are all watching, waiting for me to kill you!" ”

"And I'm barely looking forward to it? Stephen, you're not going to lie to me this time, are you? Last time I said I was going to kill you, but I washed my neck and you got rid of me. ”

“......”

Curry choked for a moment, Xu Xuan's Yin Yang language level is indeed high enough......

"You just be arrogant, Xu, I definitely want to kill you in this game!" Curry said viciously, wiping his neck.

After the cruel words...... Both teams enter the playing session.

The Lakers' lineup has come out, and the Warriors' side has quickly arranged the lineup.

Curry, Klay, Durant, Green and Zaza Pachulia respectively.

The Warriors are also the main starters!

"Beep!"

The referee signals for both players to take their positions and the game is about to begin.

The 20,000 spectators at the scene gradually quieted down.

The Lakers all wore yellow and purple-edged jerseys, while the Warriors wore royal blue and white.

The two sides are clearly divided.

The referee began to direct the jump ball, and Yi Jianlian and Zaza Pachulia stepped onto the halfway line.

The old opponent, as soon as the referee threw the ball into the air, the two jumped almost at the same time-

Compared with Zazalai, Yi Jianlian's athleticism is obviously a little better, so in the end, Yi Jianlian jumped the ball successfully, and the Lakers attacked first.

Xu Xuan brought it over in the frontcourt, and it was still Clay who defended him.

The Warriors' point of defense from the outside.

Xu Xuan moved to a step outside the three-point line in small steps and stood still.

Clay stared at Xu Xuan cautiously.

Don't dare to be careless, if you are a little careless, Xu Xuanren will be gone......

Small steps adjust the rhythm, playing the Warriors is still a little different from the Spurs, the Spurs will make you feel that no matter how you play, you are expected by them, and with the Warriors....... Just be more fierce than anyone!

First Attack!

Xu Xuan looked up at Clay, and suddenly turned his head to look to the left, Clay was instantly attracted to attention, but at this time, Xu Xuan directly rushed from the right side, the first attack, no throwing, directly breaking through!

"Flank! Attacks! Attacks! Cole roared from the sidelines.

There is an assist defense on the inside.

As soon as Xu Xuan deceived Clay, Green and Zaza Pachulia came out from the inside-

Embattled.

Xu Xuan looked at the position between himself and them.

Green was closest to him, his hands spread out in front of his side, ready to relay Clay, and the inside Zaza was already in position, just waiting for Xu Xuan to rush over.

There are wolves in front and tigers in the back.

And looking at Green's posture, he is not ready to let himself pass.

Xu Xuan is not in a hurry, this is his advantage, no matter what the situation, he can calm down quickly, and he just wants to test the defensive intensity of the Warriors.

If you don't break through, how do you know their defensive intensity?

In the blink of an eye, Xu Xuan was already about to run to the paint area, and Green had already guarded it, holding Xu Xuan with one hand, and blocking the top of Xu Xuan's head with the other, interfering with his vision.

Xu Xuan sank into the rhythm, dribbled quickly under his hands, and changed direction directly before changing hands and bodies-

A set of very fast moves were unleashed, but they still did not break through Green's defense, and at this time, Xu Xuan's breakthrough space was compressed to the extreme, and it seemed that there was no room for even dribbling...... Dangerous!
