Then it's a vicious circle, the same is true when Ye Xuan is off the court, the opponent concentrates the defense on Kobe, which is also a result, plus Lao Ke is already old, and the speed is not enough when he breaks through, so it is even more difficult to fight than when Ye Xuan led the team alone.

In the end, although Ye Xuan played only 26 points in this game, he sent 27 points and 9 assists, but in the end he was not able to help the Lakers leave the victory at the Staples Arena, the Warriors' internal and external firepower was open, although Curry only scored 14 points against Ye Xuan in this game, but Green's 21 points, Iguodala's 18 points, Azeli's 16 points, and Spetts and Livingston both scored 14 points. It was also their 60th win of the season, and with 15 games to play, winning 13 of those games would have set an almost impossible record of 73 regular-season wins in a single season.

After the big defeat to the Warriors, Ye Xuan understood why Lao Ko was ready to retire after playing this season, in addition to the reasons mentioned above, there is also a very important reason, that is, few of these teammates are full of fighting spirit, and Kobe Bryant is a person who wants to pursue victory no matter what the situation, so naturally he can't get used to the indifferent state of these teammates who lose the game.

The whole team didn't know if they were used to this rhythm of losing, so they basically acted like they didn't care, which made Ye Xuan feel a little angry after returning to the locker room, but after thinking about it, anyway, this season is coming to an end, and at the beginning of next season, the Lakers will definitely be able to regain their glory, so this state of teammates should not last long at that time.

At this time, Lao Ke also came over and sat next to Ye Xuan, "Now you know why I announced my retirement at the beginning of this season, you are the same as me, we are the kind of people who can pay any price for victory, but they are different, they don't have the determination to win, if you want to make the Lakers rise again next season, I think you need to have a good talk with Bass Jr., you have to choose a few players who you think still have potential to stay to assist you, Then kick the rest of the team out of the team so you can take full control of the team. ”

Ye Xuan was also a little surprised when he heard this, and then asked, "Since you already have this kind of thought, why don't you go directly to the management to talk to you?" Then they make some more trades in exchange for some equally strong players to support you. Corvo shook his head and said, "I'm old, I can't threaten them with transfers anymore, they care more about value and profit, and you're still very valuable, so you can talk to them, and I, I'm able to sign a $25 million contract this season because they see me as a box office guarantee." ”

The two of them dotted themselves for a while, and then attended the press conference together, but today's press conference did not suddenly burst out as many explosions as the last time, so there is nothing special about it. After the press conference, the two chatted together for a few more words before walking to the parking lot and then driving home separately.

After this big defeat, the Lakers immediately ushered in a new opponent after a day, this opponent is none other than the Magic team that has just completed a four-team big deal with the Lakers. We want to clean up the Lakers.

However, for Ye Xuan, he doesn't particularly care about the nonsense of this kind of small role, although he has been provocative, but Ye Xuan knows that this kind of small role is not his opponent now, and it will be good to teach him a good lesson on the court when the time comes, and then after hitting him in the face, see if he has anything else to say.

Time flies, in the past two days, Ye Xuan basically stayed at home, did not go to practice, nor did he go to visit Lao Ke next door, he also wanted Lao Ke to think about continuing to play another season next season. Soon the time came on March 9th, and the Lakers immediately welcomed the challenge of the Magic.

Although the Lakers are now ranked first from the bottom in the West and the second from the bottom of the league, their combat effectiveness is actually not weak, although the interior is empty, but judging from the previous two games of Ye Xuan's comeback, the offensive ability of this Lakers team is already very good, if it can strengthen its defensive ability, this team may be able to enter the playoffs even if it does not make a trade next season. The Magic, on the other hand, are a different story entirely, as they got rid of Oladipo, who is about to enter a contract year, and also acquired a first-round pick from the Lakers after the trade. But Russell's state has not been able to make the Magic team stronger, although he has averaged about 3 points per game in the Magic's more than ten games compared to when he was with the Lakers, but his number of shots has also increased by 3, which means that each shot only returns one point, which is not enough to serve as the core of a rebuilding team.

At the beginning of the game, Vucevic still had a certain advantage on the inside, beating Randle to give the racket to Russell, Russell immediately faced Ye Xuan after controlling the ball and coming to the front court, in fact, when Ye Xuan was on the Pacers, he played against Russell in the Lakers, Russell at that time had no ability to fight back at all, and I don't know what confidence he still had to provoke Ye Xuan, this time he thought he had improved, so he took the initiative to find Ye Xuan, but the result of the forced breakthrough was still stopped by Ye Xuan, was almost cut off, if it weren't for Fournier on the side to hurry over to catch the ball, maybe Russell's first statistic would have been a mistake.

After Fournier received the ball, there was not much offensive time for him to brew, so he could only simply catch the ball and dribble two steps to the side, and then pull it up and throw, under the interference of the old Cor, the ball naturally ended in iron, at this time teasing Russell immediately jumped out to show his IQ, he actually complained to Fournier who helped him clear the siege, as if he was saying that he wasted the offensive opportunity or something, so angry that Fournier didn't bother to take care of him, and took care of his own defense.

The rebound was accepted by Randle, and then handed to Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan held back a smile after receiving the ball, while slowly dribbling the ball to the front court, and Lao Ke also took advantage of the opportunity that the opponent was a little absent-minded at this time, stuck in the low position, and began to ask Ye Xuan for the ball, Ye Xuan naturally sent the ball to Lao Ke's hands with a hit, and then pulled the defender away and let Lao Ke single Fournier.

Fournier was still angry, but he still needed to defend the back play of the stronger Lao Ke, and suddenly his mentality was a little unbalanced, and the defensive action was also a little big. But it turns out that when he is angry, he can't defend well, and when Lao Ke hits his back, he casually makes a feint, and he successfully deceives Fournier, and then hits him, and the basketball is thrown to the basket, causing the opponent to foul.

At this time, Russell came to show his IQ, and came to accuse Fournier of not doing what he should have done, so that the opponent could easily shake off, with the posture of the team's boss training the younger brother, and I don't know if he was trained too much by the old section in this half season of the Lakers, so now he has begun to draw a scoop according to the gourd, but he forgot one point, that is, he does not have the qualifications and status of the old branch, he is still a rookie, and the performance on the court is not good, and he is not qualified to blame his teammates at all.

So Fournier couldn't help it at this time, originally his defense of Kobe Bryant was not a magnitude match, because before the trade, Fournier was the team's point guard, not a scoring guard, and now after Russell was traded, the team only temporarily put him in the position of scoring guard, so Russell's accusation made the anger in Fournier's heart even better, so he immediately replied, "You should take care of your own affairs, I hope you don't be blown up by Ye!" ”

Saying that, the two turned their heads to look at Ye Xuan at the same time, and Ye Xuan, who was watching the excitement on the side, was holding his shoulders and watching the play at this time, and found that the two protagonists suddenly stopped and looked at themselves, and they were suddenly stupid, scratching their heads in embarrassment, and then shrugged their shoulders and said, "Excuse me, you continue." Then he slipped away, and Russell was obviously a little upset at this time, and after being reprimanded, he immediately wanted to reason with Fournier, but the referee next to him came over, separated the two, and warned them that if there was a brawl between players from the same team, they could also be punished for malicious fouls, and they could be punished with additional penalties, and if they dared to continue to make trouble, they would both be sent out.

The two thorns suddenly became much more obedient, and the game was able to continue, but it can also be seen from this detail that the atmosphere inside the Magic team must not be good, otherwise how could there be no other teammates to stop the dispute between the two teammates? But no matter what, Ye Xuan finally saw what the situation of this 'Mad's retardation' in Nick Yang's mouth was.

The game continued, Lao Ke steadily shot the free throw, the Magic team started to attack again, Russell still wanted to hold the ball alone, but Vucevic was obviously not a vegetarian, but he was also the one who squeezed out the team's former boss Oladipo Okay, so naturally there are two brushes, immediately beckoning for the ball on the inside, Russell is out of sight, still dribbling there, after dribbling a few steps, seeing that he can't find a chance to shoot, he hoisted the ball to Vucevic on the inside, when Vucevic received the ball, There are only 6 seconds left in the offensive time, and in desperation, he can only choose a small hook hand that turns his back, fortunately, the Lakers' interior line is indeed full of holes, although Randle struggles to interfere, but his height is limited, and it does not have much effect, and he can only watch Vucevic hit the ball.

However, this did not affect the Lakers' offense, Randle quickly sent the ball out, Ye Xuan immediately drove towards the opponent's half after receiving the ball, but suddenly found that Russell, who was originally defending himself, didn't know what to say to Vucevic next to him, and didn't come to intercept himself, Ye Xuan also seized this opportunity, and directly rushed to a place about one step outside the three-point line, and then didn't wait for his teammates to settle down, and directly pulled it up with a three-point shot, and the basketball hit steadily.

At this time, the Magic team, which was already a little discordant, exploded, Vucevic accused Russell of not defending, and Russell accused Vucevic of chatting with him to distract him, and Fournier, who was originally at odds with Russell, also immediately stood up to help Vucevic speak. Ye Xuan wanted to laugh out loud at this time, but fortunately, this farce didn't last long, Scott Skyls directly called a timeout, and after figuring out the situation, he directly replaced the culprit Russell, and asked him to reflect on himself on the bench.

After the court did not have the IQ of Russell, who was not online, he was finally back on track, and in the next few minutes, the game went very smoothly, the Lakers played very well on the offensive end, and kept pressing the Magic team to the ground and rubbing it, and got a high score of 25 points in just 7 minutes, and the Magic team was a little miserable because the outside line was defended, so it could only play the inside line, and the offensive efficiency of the inside line was naturally not as good as the outside line, although it could ensure the shooting rate, but it was sandwiched from time to time, The game was not particularly happy, in the eighth minute of the first quarter of the game, the Lakers replaced Lao Ke and Buss, and at this time, Lao Ke had already scored 9 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists in the first quarter of the game, the data was very comprehensive, and Ye Xuan was not far behind, cutting down 11 points and 3 assists. Helped the Lakers take an eight-point lead.

But just after Lao Ke was replaced, the Magic team replaced Russell again, and seeing Russell being replaced again, Ye Xuan also said to Nick Yang on the side, "See, he didn't just pit you, he was like this in any team, but today he was unlucky, and he sent it to the door, and I will help you out when the time comes." After speaking, he whispered a few words to him, and then took the sideline serve and walked towards the frontcourt.
