Liu Ren's big triple-double of 44 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists, Nick Young went berserk in the last quarter, 24 points in a single quarter, 30 points in the game's best performance in a single game, Whiteside 11 points and 28 boards in the third quarter, and the "Big Three" combined to score 85 points and 42 boards; Durant scored 47 points in the first quarter with 20+ points, Westbrook scored 33 points on 35 shots, and the Thunder twins combined for 80 points......

None of this made headlines for today's game, and Carman's bleak image of him lying on the bench made headlines on major sports websites. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the Lakers arrived at the home court of the Charlotte Bobcats the next afternoon, reporters from major TV stations and news media across the United States rushed to the Time Warner Center, the home of the Bobcats, and the target was not Liu Ren and Whiteside, the two guys who cut crazy data last night, but surrounded Carman, who felt the most miserable bench in the world when he just joined the Lakers and played a game.

Carman was never seen as a star, and not many reporters interviewed him even the year he was named an All-Star, but now that he's with the Lakers, his every move is in the spotlight.

The "stroke of genius" behavior, the action of supporting the entire bench with his body, made him the new favorite of Lakers fans, what fans love, the media naturally have to report, otherwise what to earn traffic and what to make money.

However, the Lakers were not in the mood to be interviewed, and went into the locker room with their heads down to receive a massage from a masseur to relieve the sore muscles that had fought all yesterday.

In this game with the Bobcats, everyone in the Lakers team wants to win, but after all, they still can't resist the fatigue and lack of manpower, only eight people rotated, except for Thackeray who didn't play for a long time yesterday, the other seven people are all exhausted and have not recovered, and Carman has not played for a long time, but he has just come back and his physical condition is not good.

And it was a back-to-back arrangement that didn't take into account the psychology of the team that was initially seen as a belly, flying from Oklahoma in the west to North Carolina in the easternmost part of the United States, and the planes were more than three hours away.

In the end, the Lakers suffered a big defeat in back-to-back games with the Bobcats, losing 79-105, ending a four-game winning streak.

On December 17 and 18, back-to-back away games against the Hawks and Grizzlies were another extremely unreasonable back-to-back, and the East flew back to Tennessee in the southeastern United States.

The Lakers fought until the last minute to trail by two points at 96-97, but Nick Young missed the game in the final minute, and the Lakers suffered two straight losses.

When it came time to play the Grizzlies, the Lakers had no physical strength at all, and they were abused by the other party, losing 70-95 to the Lakers.

The Lakers, who returned to their home court on the 20th, received good news that Nash is back!

Taking advantage of this momentum, the Lakers worked hard as a team and defeated the visiting forest under the leadership of Nash with 9 points and 9 assists, ending a three-game losing streak, but tragedy happened again, the genuine Nash returned, and the bankrupt Nash Marshall sprained his ankle......

Then in the next game with the Warriors, Curry made 11 of 18 three-pointers, scored 55 points in the game, set a new personal scoring record, and led the Warriors to a 132-120 victory at the Oracle Center in Oakland, the Warriors' home court.

No. 21 was another back-to-back away game, although it was in Phoenix next door, not far away, but the Lakers still suffered two consecutive defeats, losing 100-115 to the Suns.

So far, the Lakers' record has changed to 18-9, falling from first in the West to fourth in the West, and being overtaken by the Thunder and Rockets.

Although Liu Ren averaged 33.4 points, 8.6 rebounds and 11.8 assists in five games of the Lakers in the past week, his 1-4 record also made him miss out on the best of the week.

In the first phase of the All-Star Voting, his votes in the Western All-Star frontcourt were second only to Griffin's 410,000 votes, ranking second with 390,000 votes, and the third was Durant's 300,000 votes.

Among the votes of the frontcourt players, in addition to Liu Ren's second, Whiteside ranked sixth in the frontcourt with 220,000 votes, but this is not surprising, although Whiteside is a substitute, but his data is a crazy 9.3 points and 12.6 boards, and the playing time is only 24 minutes, which is terrifyingly efficient! Among frontcourt players, Andre Drummond, who is second only to the Pistons, is the monster sophomore rebounding champion.

The most surprising thing is the towel king of the Lakers, the cornerstone Thackeray! He beat Lefu to rank fourth in the front court with 290,000 votes! If it weren't for Durant's popularity being stable enough, he might have been surpassed by this little prince of towel dancing who can't play very well!

Thackeray's likable personality is already very popular with fans, plus the Lakers have a good record this year, and there are many people who watch Lakers games, so this guy who is favored by cameramen and can often be photogenic on the bench is very popular with fans. In addition, Howard offended almost all the fans in the United States, and people didn't want to vote for Howard, so they voted for Thackeray......

The number of votes in the backcourt of the West is still Kobe Bryant's lead, with 450,000 votes dominating the West, and only James in the East has 510,000 votes to beat him.

Not to mention James, last year's double MVP, was in the limelight.

Kobe Bryant because the Lakers have a good record this year, and people are very much looking forward to what heights the Lakers will reach after his return.

Although the Lakers have lost one after another in recent times, they are just too many injuries, and people believe that the Lakers will immediately regain their strength after the return of injured players.

In second place is Paul but only 280,000 votes, this year's Western backcourt players have played too well, and there are many popular ones, so that the votes are very scattered, Curry is only 10,000 votes less than Paul, 270,000 votes are third, popular player Jeremy Lin 250,000 votes ranked fourth, Westbrook 230,000 votes ranked fifth, veteran popular player Carter 220,000 votes ranked sixth, and Harden ranked seventh with 200,000 votes.

After three back-to-backs, the Lakers finally got four days off......

……

Rest is the best way to relieve stress, and Beverly Hills has been getting more and more lively lately, with streamers hanging on the doors of many homes, and one fir after another being sent into this high-end villa area and into the villas of each family.

Liu Ren's family also bought one, Betty Lori is happily hanging a card with her little secret written on the tree, and then makes a look that she thinks is very fierce, but Liu Ren looks cute and warns her uncle not to peek at the wish written inside, otherwise it will not work, so that Santa Claus will not fulfill her wish.

Although there is no snow in Los Angeles in winter, and the temperature is not too low, it is already winter and it is only twelve or thirteen degrees, but Liu Ren still feels the joyful atmosphere of the people, Christmas is coming!
