Chapter 105: Winning and Slapping in the Face

"Is it over? That's the end of it? ”

"God, it's unbelievable that the Lakers beat the visiting Miami Heat like this?"

"It was one of the best Christmas games in recent years and the defense of both teams was simply suffocating. It was a classic defensive matchup. ”

"The Lakers, who are second in the West, have taken out the Heat, who are number one in the league, and you look at James's expression, I think he will explode, and Alex Polstra is going to be a punching bag and a backstabber, and he actually lost to a rookie coach in coaching."

"A 22-year-old guy who has always been able to lead the team to incredible performances, won again, and the winning streak is going to continue. He's always creating magic, and maybe the Lakers can really bring it back to his hands. ”

"I'm already looking forward to the next game between the two teams that will take place in Miami, and James needs to make up for the bad day with action."

"Kobe Bryant is reborn, 33 points and 10 boards, what else can a veteran need? He's done enough, and the new coach has done it right and effective. Or that Bryant should really thank him, it's been a perfect comeback season......"

With a 7-point deficit of 98:91, the Lakers defeated the Heat at home and won today's Christmas game, bringing the winning streak to eight.

The Lakers' performance added a lot of color to today's Christmas Eve, and this game has become a fairly classic game this season.

At the press conference after the game, the Lakers were full of laughter.

"Chu, congratulations on continuing to maintain a 100% coaching record."

Chu Xuan's expression was calm, and he smiled, the result of today's game made him quite satisfied.

"Thank you!"

"Chu, how long do you think this winning streak can last? Furthermore, what is your opinion and attitude towards this matter? ”

Chu Xuan smiled slightly: "As long as our players keep being so competitive, I think there is no end to this record." Well, seriously, I don't have much desire for a record, but it's an affirmation of all the hard work we've put in, so I'm certainly very happy if I can keep it up. ”

"Chu, LeBron said you're not their opponent, and you're not a great manager. What are your thoughts on this? ”

When Chu Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but chuckle, what James said was contradictory. He first denied the strength of the Lakers, but then said that Chu Xuan's coaching ability was not good. However, how to explain the Lakers' second-place record in the West?

Obviously, James, who has always been known for his cleverness, made a rare mistake today. Maybe in an interview, he should say that the Lakers are a very good team with a strong lineup, so he can say that Chu Xuan's coaching ability can be said to be in the past.

Under the gaze of the interviewing reporter, Chu Xuan chuckled and said, "I don't have any ideas about comparison, I think the results can explain a lot of things." ”

After a pause, Chu Xuan continued: "From the beginning of entering the Lakers coaching staff, I have been constantly questioned. I've become accustomed to them as they only motivate me to work hard. ”

"Does beating the Heat mean you're already the best team in the league? What is your opinion on this year's championship? ”

The overall winner? The best team?

Chu Xuan couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head: "A game doesn't mean anything, but that is a positive signal after all, we are not the best team yet, but we have the confidence to be the best team." ”

In one point, Chu Xuan is telling the truth, he does have the ability to build the Lakers into the league's most championship-winning team.

You must know that in today's Lakers, veterans Kobe Bryant and Gasol are still in very good competitive condition, and young players are also playing their potential.

It can be said that unconsciously, the Lakers have completed a renewal like the Spurs. On the basis of such a lineup, Chu Xuan will continue to make some good changes, and it is not impossible for the Lakers to become the best team in the league again.

"As for the championship? I didn't care, I didn't think about it, it was something that I needed to think about in half a year. Chu Xuan's expression was relaxed, and he faced the reporters and talked eloquently.

"Chu, can you tell me why you beat the Heat?"

"In this defensive game, I think the key to winning was the protection of the rebounds, and we grabbed 15 offensive rebounds, which made a big difference."

Speaking of this offensive rebounding problem, in this Christmas game, the Lakers' group did a very good job. And the most surprising thing is that Kobe Bryant got four, and Ibanks, who came off the bench for ten minutes, grabbed three.

It can be said that it is precisely because of the hard work shown in rebounding that the Lakers were able to play very tenacious, so that they were able to beat the Heat unexpectedly.

"During this time, the frontcourt combination of Whiteside, Noll and Green is eye-catching, what is the attitude of the Lakers towards the three of them?"

Chu Xuan smiled: "They all have very great potential, their growth ceiling is very high, and they will be the future of the Lakers." ”

"Haha, Chu. Why did you choose the three of them in the first place? You know, if you don't know how high they can reach, there are no people who are so keen to have them at that time. ”

"You can understand that I can see the future. I know they can be stars, so I'm desperate to have them. Well, the front is just a joke, in fact, the players introduced by the Lakers at this stage have been carefully examined. They have a lot of potential, which is why we are passionate about them. ”

"But, Chu, Hassan Whiteside and Norris Noll seem to be incompatible, if you have to trade one, who do you think you would choose to give up?"

When Chu Xuan heard this, he was full of surprise: "No, no, no, they will become good partners, and none of us will give up." ”

"Chu, can you evaluate LeBron James? You seem to have found a way to deal with him. ”

In this game, James played 42 minutes, hit 10 of 24 shots, including 4 three-point shots, 6 of 9 free throws, and contributed 26 points, 4 boards, 3 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks. It was definitely his worst fight of the season.

'Every player has his or her lows and I believe he will find a way to fix them. He's been in the highlights for most of the season, so a bad one should be forgiven. In my opinion, he's still one of the best players in the league. ”
