After the Warriors lost a game, the team leading the West became the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Lakers turned out to be the first in the West! This is something that no one would have thought of.

"The Warriors have lost, the Lakers haven't lost a game, I wonder who the super team is?"

"How many fights have you had? You're in too much of a hurry, look at it in a month's time, the Lakers will definitely be ranked outside the eighth place again! ”

Even if the Lakers are currently in the first place in the West, but in the Western Conference where there are many strong teams, even the Lakers' own fans know very well that their first place is not very stable, and from the history of the past NBA, the start results are good, but after that, there are more teams that slowly fall and play worse and worse, and they have to experience an All-Star Game during the period, and it is not uncommon for a team to have completely different results before and after the All-Star Game, the regular season is too long, there are as many as 82 games, So Lakers fans are also taking this rare opportunity to show off and commemorate.

The sixth game of the Lakers is to face the Charlotte Hornets at home, before the game started, Xie Chen said to all his teammates: "Now everyone thinks that our Lakers should not occupy the first position in the West, that is not our position, they are all waiting for us to fall, so this game against the Hornets, we must not lose, we must stay in the first position for a little longer." ”

If the Lakers lose this game against the Hornets, then the Lakers will have the same record as the Warriors, and then they will have to tie for the first place again.

However, the likelihood of the Lakers losing this game is not high, because this Lakers is a team that defeated the Clippers, they have shown their strength, and the Hornets are not a strong team, and they have undergone a lot of personnel changes in the offseason, Jeremy Lin, the extremely important commander of the second team, is gone, and goes to the Nets, and Al Jefferson, a low-post scorer, is gone, and goes to the Pacers, Courtney Lee is also gone, and 4 years and $50 million went to the New York Knicks, A lot of people are skeptical that the Hornets will make it to the playoffs this season.

The Lakers are at home, Xie Chen doesn't have to play two games, and it will be easier to win, but although Xie Chen launched a rapid offensive as soon as the game came up, the Hornets survived and did not let the game lose suspense at the beginning, and it was the Hornets' small forward Batum who did this.

Batum is known as "French Pippen", sometimes called "French Maddie", very comprehensive, he does not have very strong athleticism, but his shooting is soft, offensive organization is very good, and the Hornets also kept Batum on a five-year 120 million contract in the offseason.

In addition to that, the Hornets also completed a re-signing with the team's Marvin Williams, signing a four-year, $54.5 million contract.

Everyone knows that Jordan wants to win another championship as a manager, but with the Hornets unable to sign big-name stars and can only rely on existing players to grow, the Hornets are still far from winning the championship.

In the first half, Batum frequently hit three-pointers, so that the score of the Hornets kept chasing the score of the Lakers, and in the second half, Kemba Walker began to exert his power again, and the Hornets not only did not get thrown off by the Lakers, but played more and more fiercely, and had the momentum to overtake.

At this time, Lakers coach Luke Wharton was anxious, because he was not sure to win the next game against the Warriors, he was too familiar with the Warriors, so he knew the strength of the Warriors, and the next game against the Warriors may be the first loss he had gained since he became the coach, if that was really the case, he also admitted it, there is no shame in losing to the Warriors, but he must not lose to a team that may not even be able to enter the playoffs before that.

'My first defeat as manager must not have happened today! We are more than capable of beating the opponents, opening the score, and showing them what we are really capable of! Luke Wharton let out a rare yell at the players.

Under the encouragement of the head coach, everyone has begun to get serious, and the Lakers team currently has a very serious problem, that is, many players are easy to slack off on the court, and they don't have much fighting spirit.

In the end, with the play of Xie Chen and everyone, the Lakers opened the score in the final quarter and finally won this victory.

The Lakers have won six in a row! Continue to lead the West!

After losing to the Spurs, the Warriors proved that they are still the strongest super team in the league with a 27-point victory, but after learning that the Lakers won another game and have not lost so far, the Warriors will be a little unhappy, and none of them can afford the Lakers as a team, so it feels uncomfortable to be ranked below them.

Draymond Green had an unhappy expression: "Hell, is the ranking still pressed by them now?" What qualifications do they have to occupy the position of first place in the West? I think Xie just took advantage of the beginning of the new season, everyone was still looking for form, and Xie deliberately stole these victories! ”

Klay Thompson looked indifferent: "I didn't meet the San Antonio Spurs, I didn't meet the Cleveland Cavaliers and we didn't meet, so it's not strange that we didn't lose." ”

Durant agreed: "Klay is right, the Lakers are just lucky, they beat the Clippers by luck, and the other opponents are not strong, but then, they will play us twice in a month, in addition to us, the Lakers will meet the Grizzlies and Spurs in succession Those opponents who are not easy to deal with, don't care too much about the current ranking, Green, wait a month, you won't even see them at the top of the leaderboard." ”

"Hahaha." Curry also looked relaxed, looking not afraid of the next game against the Lakers, Curry smiled: "Xie should still be able to bring the Lakers into the playoffs, but their record ranking has nothing to do with us, we just need to sit in the first position in the West, but we may have to wait, the next win against the Lakers, we are still tied for the first place with the Lakers, but the day of our monopoly on the first place will come soon." ”

The Warriors are a team full of confidence from top to bottom, both players and coaches, they have very high expectations for the team this season, and they will never allow anyone to destroy any team.

The showdown between the Warriors and the Lakers, the showdown between Xie Chen, Durant, and Curry, has also aroused the biggest attention of NBA fans this season!

"Tomorrow the Warriors play the Lakers at home! The first exciting game of the season is about to take place! What do you think of this game? ”

"It's a superstar vs. a superteam, the Lakers have the best players in the league, but the Warriors have the second and fourth players in the league, and even Thompson and Green can be ranked in the top ten, in this kind of disparity comparison, the Lakers can win the game is very unlikely, a regular season win is not so important, and both teams have a good start, it doesn't matter if you lose one, the key is whether this competition can play at the level that the team should have, If Curry and Durant play like the Spurs, even if they win against the Lakers, they shouldn't be happy, right? ”

"You're all too innocent! This is obviously a three-person MVP game! Xie Chen, Curry, and Durant all have a chance to win this season's MVP, you see, the three of them will fight for the head, even if Curry and Durant are on the same team! ”

“……”

The night before the game, Xie Chen and Ingram were left alone in the basketball hall, and Xie Chen attached great importance to the next game against the Warriors, as well as Ingram's play.

Xie Chen said to Ingram: "This game with the Warriors, you have to play it as the Western Conference Finals, I have a hunch, we Lakers will definitely meet the Warriors in the playoffs, this game is just a good time to test the gap between us and the other party, this game, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, it doesn't matter if I play well or not, the most important thing is you, when you meet in the playoffs, you will be the most changed among our people, so you have to remember the routines of these opponents, the way the defenders defend you, Forcing you to make mistakes and not scoring points, Coach Kerr will definitely cover me in the next game, so my requirement for you in the next game is to score at least 25 points plus at least 5 assists. ”

Ingram listened very carefully, this was the first time Xie Chen had spoken to himself so seriously, and he also gave himself the task of the next game, 25+5, which is not a simple task, especially for rookies, because the rookies' performance is always too unstable, often playing a good and bad game, and the next game is against the strongest team in the league, Ingram doesn't know if he can do it.

……

Finally, on the day of the game, the Oracle Arena was packed, and the crowd was full of fans wearing Durant's No. 35 jersey, Durant has become an idol of the city since joining the Warriors, although the outside world has a lot of criticism of Durant, but the Warriors fans are very loved.

Since this is a game with many superstars, there are many celebrities on the scene, not to mention Rihanna, JAY-Z, who often watch the game, as well as those big names who rarely appear in the NBA, and there are also many Chinese artists, such as Wu Yanzu, who grew up here and is also a die-hard Warriors fan.

It is impossible for CCTV not to broadcast such a high-profile game.

Host Yu Jiadao: "Hello audience friends, welcome to watch this game between the Warriors and the Lakers that I bring to you with Zhang Weiping, this is also a contest between the first and second in the West, it can be said that it is a strong matchup, the game will be very good, before that, let's listen to what Director Zhang thinks about this game." ”

Zhang Weiping smiled and said: "Yes, it can be said to be a strong matchup, but before the start of the new season, no one thought that they would be a strong team, but after the start of the new season, the Lakers won all the way and have not lost a game so far, but the regular season is still very long, and it is difficult to say how the Lakers are in the end, today is a test for them, Xie Chen showed his super fast speed in the Olympic Games, which made the opponent a headache, when the Lakers went on a fast attack, you didn't pay attention Xie Chen has already run to the basket, and when he is fast attacking, Xie Chen's speed can also ensure that he has time to catch up and cover you, the Warriors have not yet learned his speed, it is estimated that this game will not make them feel very comfortable, and between Durant and Curry, the two have not yet reached the most tacit understanding, especially when it comes to the critical moment of the game, so this ball is also a test for them. ”

Yu Jia smiled and asked, "Why do I think the Lakers can win the Warriors when I listen to Director Zhang?" ”

Zhang Weiping laughed and said: "There is a chance to win, because no one knows where Xie Chen's limit is, but it is still a high probability event for the Warriors to win." ”

At the Oracle Arena, it was soon time for the players to play, and the Warriors fans also had a heated discussion before the game.

A fan wearing a Durant jersey talked to a friend: "Xie is coming out soon, damn it, I feel a little scared at the thought of him showing up, he snatched two championships that originally belonged to the Warriors!" ”

Friends also sighed: "I'm in the same mood as you, I haven't seen him yet, I'm already scared, he not only robbed us of two championships, but also used two different teams to rob, I have watched him challenge the Warriors since 2014, every year to change a jersey, this year changed to the Lakers, if this season's championship is taken away by the Lakers, I will go crazy!" ”

Xie Chen can definitely be called the most hated opponent of the Warriors and Warriors fans, since the first day of entering the NBA, he has been working with the Warriors, and in these two seasons, he has robbed the Warriors of two championships, snatched an MVP from Stephen Curry, and has many three-point shooting records.

The so-called enemies were very red when they met, and as soon as Xie Chen appeared, he was booed by the audience!

"It's this bastard who made our Warriors' 73 wins a joke!"

"We're still 74 wins this season, and he's coming to the West to sabotage our record!"

"Badass!"

The audience was full of boos, when Ingram and Xie Chen appeared together, everyone was stunned, he had never heard such a shocking and spectacular boo when he was so big, Ingram couldn't help but ask: "Boss, they are all scolding you...... How deep do you have a grudge against them? ”

When Xie Chen came here for the first time, he was also full of boos, because at that time, Xie Chen imitated Curry to cast a three-point name, they felt that Xie Chen was a copycat, at that time, Xie Chen hated those boos, but now, Xie Chen listened to the boos in the audience, he was not angry, but smiled, Xie Chen felt that this was also a kind of love!

Everyone regards Xie Chen as a bad guy, because they think that Xie Chen came to the West either to win the championship, or to destroy the Warriors' record, as we all know, Xie Chen is good at dealing with the Warriors, last season's regular season played twice, both Xie Chen won, Xie Chen came to the West, a regular season can play the Warriors four times, if all four times beat the Warriors, then the Warriors want 74 wins, it is impossible!
