Chapter 41: The Christmas War

The game between the Cavaliers and the Lakers will be broadcast live by TNT across the United States, in fact, to be honest, there will only be one or two Christmas games every year, which is more interesting, but this year, the league's intention to arrange the Christmas game is more obvious. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In addition to the Cavaliers, Lakers and Clippers Suns, the other games are the Heat Knicks, the Nuggets Trail Blazers, almost all of which make the giants of the 03 generation come out to make an appearance, as well as the defensive battles between the Magic and the Celtics.

Of course, the game between the Clippers and the Suns is also interesting, especially the strong rise of champion Griffin, and many fans have also discovered the similarities between Griffin and Xiaobawang.

However, Griffin's skills are still a little worse, but this does not prevent the majority of fans from fascinating the duel between the two generations of beast power forwards.

However, the first thing Byron Davis and Griffin did after arriving in Phoenix was not to go to the arena, but was invited by NBA staff to a room to sing Christmas Day songs.

This can be regarded as an NBA Christmas tradition, the purpose is to make fans laugh, Davis and Griffin can be regarded as the current Clippers signature, one is still famous, and the other is rising rapidly.

But when Davis spoke, Griffin felt what is called pentatonic incompleteness, and all of Brother Black's musical talent has been clicked on rapping, in short, four words to describe it is hard to hear an explosion.

Griffin is very proud of singing, especially in his previous life, and once won the championship of a community cup youth singing competition, although the competition is not big, but it is enough to reflect that this singing strength is not an ordinary KTV level.

Even if it was a simple Christmas song, Griffin had to show off his singing strength and skills, and even the filming crew on the scene couldn't help but exclaim a few times.

"Blake, you've let me down so much, that's why you can't gallop in a nightclub! It's unforgivable that you can sing this kind of girl's song better than the great rap rap music! ”

In the face of Davis's strength, Sour Grape Griffin naturally coped with it.

The game between the Clippers and the Suns was also broadcast live by the NBATV, and there was no tension in the game, full of holiday joy, and the Suns mascot Gorilla ran to the Clippers to tease Griffin before the game.

Griffin, who faced this situation for the first time, was naturally a little shy, and his youthful performance was clearly seen by the audience through the big screen, and Nash and Xiao Si laughed together.

The veteran team members were much more comfortable with this trick, and Davis and Camby teamed up to kick the gorilla to the ground, causing the audience to burst into laughter.

The game started harmoniously in such a joyful atmosphere, Dunleavy still let Carman jump the ball, but Carman jumped over Fry, Davis took the ball and firmly pressed down the rhythm, and his eyes signaled Griffin's willingness to attack, Griffin didn't even nod his head, just firmly stuck Xiao Si, and reached out to make a move to ask for the ball.

"Wow, Griffin is going to beat Xiao Si with the first goal of the opening game! Looks aggressive and hopefully Griffin doesn't get influenced by the outside world, I'm personally very optimistic about Griffin, he still has a lot of time to improve. ”

Griffin's psychology is still a little improved now, the team is sparing no effort to support him, and he has such a good physical condition, what is there to worry about, and he is complacent after achieving some small achievements.

After taking the ball, Griffin pretended to break through to the left side of the frame, but in fact, he lowered his center of gravity and hit the right side with all his might, Xiao Si reacted quite quickly and blocked Griffin in time, but Griffin exceeded almost half a small position, and the two directly collided with each other, Xiao Si couldn't continue to keep up, and watched Griffin stretch a one-handed split.

"This kid is strong and fast, and these three threats are simply small forward skills." Xiao Si kept muttering when he returned to the field.

The Clippers carefully studied the Suns' tactics before the game, in addition to the bombardment of the Megatron League, the blocking and pick-and-roll of Xiao Si and Nash, as well as the projection ability of the Suns team, the depth of the bench, etc., are very powerful.

After Nash and Xiaosi blocked and dismantled, Griffin immediately followed Nash, mainly because Nash was fast and his jump shot was accurate, and it was not possible to delay it at all, but Davis immediately followed, and Griffin immediately returned to his position.

"Oh, very good defense, in the local defense of blocking and pick-and-roll, Griffin played his mobility, as agile as the outside!"

However, Griffin, who blocked Xiao Sneche, didn't expect Xiao Si to cut in at all, and after Nash's ball was distributed, Xiao Si directly made a beautiful mid-range shot, watching the ball accurately drill into the net, Griffin's heart once again ignited the flame of learning.

Although the Suns have a high shooting percentage, the Clippers are full of physical strength, and the defensive intensity of both sides is not very large, and the game is very exciting, and Griffin's change makes Dunleavy on the sidelines nod.

Even though the Suns defended Griffin's technical characteristics, Griffin was not as easily discouraged as he used to be, changing how he played, sometimes shooting a few, more like he was preoccupied with the game.

As the game progressed, the gap between the two teams was slowly revealed, the Suns' defense was not a specialty, but the ability to find shots was very strong, and it was even happier to meet a Clippers who did not have enough defensive focus.

Dunleavy is not bothered, playing a strong team like the Suns is a great opportunity for the Clippers, and Griffin has also benefited a lot from an opponent of Xiao Si's level.

Especially in terms of offense, Xiao Si is not Griffin's rough brother, Xiao Si is not only the top in the league in face frame technology, but in this regard, Griffin's face frame is actually the top, thanks to his physical fitness.

But Xiao Si's mid-range shooting is also very accurate, especially the occasional jump shot on the way to break through, Griffin can really only watch, and the diversity of the offense is still Griffin's weakness.

During the official long timeout in the second quarter, the players who were studying tactics on the bench suddenly found themselves on the big screen in the middle with a confused face, and it turned out that the previously recorded Christmas holiday song was played at this time.

The performances of each player were presented one by one, and in general it was mainly comedic, and the audience was also very happy, and the immediate reactions of the players were also played on the other side of the screen.

So when Griffin's singing voice appeared, it was simply a clear stream, and the audience even thought it was a substitute singer, especially the disgusting little eyes of Byron Davis next to him were full of comedy.

The half-laughing and half-applauding situation on the scene also satisfied Griffin, at least it was recognized by the audience.

In the second half, the Clippers may still be addicted to their own singing, and the offensive end is clattering, but Griffin has a lot of secondary rebounds, and it doesn't take long for the Suns to speed up, and after the Clippers run for a few minutes, the situation is completely gone.

In the fourth quarter, the main team fought hard for a few minutes, and after Griffin and Xiaosi dunked a few wonderful balls from each other, the coaches of both sides waved their hands and went up to pass the time off the bench.

In the end, the Clippers lost to the Suns 93-124 away, and the Suns scored 26 points and 9 rebounds, Nash had 14 points and 8 assists, Richardson had 19 points, Hill had 12 points, Dragic had 18 points off the bench, and Barbosa and Dudley had 13 points.

Griffin of the Clippers had 29 points and 16 rebounds, Rasso Butler came off the bench to score 23 points, Gordon and Davis 11 points, Carman 14 points, and the rest of the bench was a relatively broken score.

The Clippers lost, but Griffin's good stats and on-court performance were also good news for the Clippers, especially the boldness shown in the game was unprecedented.

The highlight of the Cavaliers Lakers game, the Cavaliers defeated the Lakers 102-87 away, 23vs24 was also particularly exciting, the little emperor scored a quasi-triple-double of 28 plus 7 assists and 8 rebounds, and Kobe Bryant scored a game-high score of 36 points.

Another highly-watched game, Magic and Celtic, the Celtics won 88-77 away against the Magic, and the score also showed that it was quite a good defensive battle.

Overall, the game on Christmas Day was very exciting, with star showdowns and strong teams competing for each other, all of which feasted the eyes of the audience.
