Chapter 373: The Fifth Battle!
Before the fifth game of the Lakers, Chen Yu suddenly had an idea in his heart.
He's been really good lately, and it's not just what the outside world says about him, even he can feel it.
Just like an idea he established before: when you feel good and can score no matter how you play, you should take more data and get more honors.
He's going to do his best to get the best player of the month during this time!
If he can get this player, Chen Yu will be able to complete a phased task, and several other phased tasks will definitely be closer.
After all, the best player of the month, whether it is for entering the All-Star Game or the MVP rankings afterward, must be positively correlated.
Chen Yu is now more eager for the best player of the month, and the method to get the best player of the month is of course very simple, one is data, and the other is record.
Grasp with both hands, and both hands should be hard......
The Lakers' next opponent is the Golden State Warriors!
The Lakers are at home.
This match is even more attractive than before, not only because everyone wants to see how long Chen Yu's performance can last, but also because this opponent is worth looking forward to.
Because now everyone thinks that the two people in the league who are most similar to each other should be Chen Yu and Curry.
It's just that at the beginning, everyone said that Chen Yu's style of play was like Curry, and he was still lifting Chen Yu in order to put gold on his face, but with Chen Yu's progress, everyone still said it now, and everyone felt that it was nothing.
Even judging from Chen Yu's performance at the beginning of this season, everyone thinks that Curry is no longer as good as Chen Yu.
But Curry is still a big killer, and although he's not at the level of dominance right now, he averaged 23 points per game last season and started the season with 25 points.
Although this is far from Chen Yu's statistics, his scoring is also amazing in the position of playmaking defender......
No, it should be in any position, and it is difficult to get more than 20 points.
And this season's Warriors have completed their reinforcements, and they have recruited Iguodala from the Nuggets, which is one of their most anticipated aspects.
Because, last season, although the Warriors have gone through various drafts and other ways to make the team relatively complete, they still have some problems.
On the offensive side, they still rely more on Curry and Thompson's off-ball moves or pick-and-rolls, and there are many such cases, and they also need David Lee's back-to-back singles, as well as the occasional few waist-to-back singles from Barnes and Green; Defensively, a lot of inside lines go straight to the high post to defend the opponent.
As a result, the Warriors are somewhat polarized: their guards are flexible, especially the point guard Curry, which is synonymous with flexibility, freehand, and comics, but their interior is more clunky, traditional, and there is a sense of separation between the inside and the outside.
But with Iguodala's arrival, that sense of disconnection was gone.
He can be a counter-arrow, he can be a part-time playmaker, an air cut, a weak-side raider, a co-defend, a rotation, a pinched pass route, a one-on-one ace defender......
And Curry is still evolving, and in the continuous evolution, everyone can see that Curry is playing more restrained now, mainly to prevent the recurrence of his old injury, but he has also played smarter because of this, and this is a person with a high ball quotient.
Therefore, it is obvious that the current Warriors team is very exciting, and against opponents like the Lakers, it will naturally attract more attention.
And everyone also thinks that it is not yet known who will kill the deer, but at least this game should be more exciting.
Before the start of the game, reporters came to interview Chen Yu.
"Chen, you've played well in four games in a row, and the Lakers haven't tasted defeat yet, what do you think of today's game? Can you take it? After all, the Warriors are also a strong team right now! ”
Chen Yu paused, and then said: "They are a very strong team, and I have seen many such strong teams...... But seriously, we're in a lot of momentum right now, and I think it should be no problem to take them down! ”
"And how long do you think you'll be able to do this?" The reporter then asked.
"I want to know that my hand is still there, I can continue forever, there are a lot of things that you can't control, after all, it's arranged, but you can do it, try your best when you can, that's it, you know what I mean?"
The reporter nodded and said, "What do you expect from the Lakers this season?" ”
"Overall Champion! Any player wants to win a championship. Chen Yu said: "I am no exception, this season, the Lakers' goal is to win the championship!" ”
After Chen Yu's words came out, the reporter almost couldn't help but want to laugh.
Lakers...... This season...... Still want to win the championship?
What was Chen Yu thinking?
When these interviews appeared on many fan forums and news, they also attracted a lot of discussion.
Most people feel that Chen Yu is too inflated now? has already talked about the championship, but if you think about it carefully, what Chen Yu said makes sense, he said that every player's goal is to win the championship.
Although this is not true, because most people just go to work to get money, at least what Chen Yu said will be admitted by everyone in the official face.
However, some people also felt that Chen Yu's speech seemed to be sharper than before.
Especially this one that can beat the Warriors...... He probably wouldn't have said such a thing before.
In fact, Chen Yu also thought about what he said, of course he knew the consequences of saying something big, but the goal of his phased task was to enter the All-Star Game, and the All-Star thing is not all about strength, and many times it depends on popularity.
Chen Yu's popularity is still very strong, his Twitter followers are about to exceed two million, and the number of active players with more than two million fans in the NBA is basically no more than 10, but Chen Yu is still worried.
Sometimes there is no reason to talk about popularity, but if you are always very low-key and humble in your image, although you can get everyone's like, it is sometimes not easy to get topical.
Chen Yu will now also try to make a little topic without going too far.
Of course, this is only auxiliary, the most important thing is your own performance, if you can continue your current performance, then your popularity is not high. Because once the performance really sweeps the entire league, if you don't make the All-Star, the All-Star will become a joke.
