Chapter 306: The Lakers are coming
Tang Wenlong pushed open the window, and a cold current that contrasted greatly with the warmth of the room instantly hit his face, with the unique earthy freshness of the early morning, sending an uplifting smell.
"Isn't it a rest today, why did you get up so early?"
Fang Chuxia, who was still in a daze on the big bed, turned over, pulled up his back and wrapped himself like a zongzi, only revealing a small head outside.
Tang Wenlong shuddered, and after absorbing the fresh air, he reached out and closed the window, then he grabbed the T-shirt next to the bed, put it on his body, and said with a smile to Fang Chuxia: "I'm used to getting up so early every day, even if I rest, I have to relax my body through some simple training." ”
Fang Chuxia's long and scattered hair covered his eyes, and he chuckled, "Aren't you tired?" ”
Tang Wenlong didn't hear the meaning of Fang Chuxia's pun, and was stunned to make a forward biceps movement, and the rock-like biceps immediately stacked high on the arm with obvious muscle outline, and smiled stupidly: "How can I be tired, I'm a superman!" ”
Fang Chuxia rolled his eyes, pulled the quilt tighter, and said, "Whatever you want." ”
Tang Wenlong touched his head, put on sweatpants again, then walked out of the room and closed the door, walked downstairs to change his sneakers and went out.
After entering December, it ushered in a roaring cold snap.
The pedestrians on the streets of Philadelphia wore thick coats, and the cold wind froze people to the cold, and suddenly turned from autumn to winter, as if they were going to freeze people before they were willing.
The rolled branches carried scattered dead leaves, and they made a choice in the swirling cold wind, drifting irregularly everywhere.
Tang Wenlong covered his head in a sweatshirt and trotted along the side of the street, and after running to warm up, he couldn't feel the cold of the air.
Looking up, the external LCD screen of the commercial plaza shows a promotional video of the 76ers' recent game.
Tang Wenlong stopped his pace and slowly appreciated the team's promotional video, which included his signature step-back jumper, slam dunk and three-point shot, as well as teammates such as Iguodala's empty dunk, Jimmy Butler's tomahawk dunk, Lowry's brilliant assist, and Ray Allen's lightning three-point projection.
Then the screen jumped, tumbling to the 76ers schedule for the last few games.
On December 11, the 76ers host the Los Angeles Lakers!
"Got to play with the Lakers so soon?" Tang Wenlong hasn't done his homework recently, and he doesn't know that he will play against the Lakers in a few days, which is a big deal.
After winning a few games under interim coach Buckerstaff, the Lakers immediately looked for a new coach, the famous coach of the Suns that year, and the running master D'Antoni!
As a result, the record is still mediocre, and they often lose to opponents who are much weaker than their book strength.
There is news from the outside world that the Lakers locker room is not harmonious, and the contradictions about the personality of Warcraft Howard and Kobe Bryant are becoming increasingly acute, and there is even news that Kobe Bryant is very disgusted with Howard's style of giggling all the time, and in the process of the two participating in the team's training together, he directly and unceremoniously criticized Howard's style.
Tang Wenlong squinted his eyes, with a hint of murderous aura in his eyes, it was a pretty good experience to defeat the luxurious Lakers
Finally, the publicity of this game gradually increased, on the Internet, in newspapers, offline shopping malls and subways, all Philadelphia fans knew that the arrogant Purple and Gold Army in Los Angeles was coming!
On the night of the game, there will undoubtedly be a national broadcast live.
The golden duo of Barkley and Kenny Smith arrived early at the Vacgiovia Center and sat in the back two rows of the tech desk to make a live broadcast.
Barkley took a bite of a big burger, two thick lips like fat intestines flew up and down, and he spoke as fast as a rapper, "To be honest, the Lakers this season are so disappointing, I even doubt that they can make the playoffs, and the current record is only 10th in the West." ”
Kenny Smith immediately retorted, "Of course the Lakers can make the playoffs, they're just having a few minor troubles at the moment, and they're still a championship-caliber team, and their goal is not just to make the playoffs, but to finally lift the O'Brien Cup." ”
Barkley took out a napkin and wiped his mouth, scoffed at Smith's remarks, and said with a disdainful face: "The biggest dilemma of the Lakers at present is not a tactical problem, nor is it the so-called run-in, but the player's inner fighting spirit, every enemy they encounter will regard them as their own touchstone, if they can't come up with an extremely strong desire to win, they will still lose the game in the end, and in my opinion, Kobe Bryant is the only one on the team who has this desire, man, this is the NBA, don't work hard, How to win? ”
After hearing this, the Lakers fans in front of the TV couldn't wait to strangle this hateful fat man on the spot.
And the fat man unknowingly unwittingly unleashed nonsense, and his mouth was notoriously poisonous, and he set off cannons all over the screen to attract hatred.
Tang Wenlong rubbed his palms, moved the joints of his whole body, especially his neck, and twisted left and right to make a clicking sound.
The Lakers are not a full lineup today, with Paul Gasol and Steve Nash both on the injury list, as well as bench titan Jordan Hill and veteran Steven Blake also unable to play in this game.
But even so, the Lakers can put together an excellent starting lineup of Chris Duhon, Kobe, Artest, Devin Ibanks and Howard, plus Morris, Jamison and others on the bench, the Lakers still have a lot of players who can play.
For the 76ers, Joey Loyle will miss half a season due to plantar fasciitis, Ray Allen will miss the game with a severe cold due to the flu recently, and veteran David West in the starting lineup will miss the game for several weeks with a sore knee.
Neither team is the strongest team to play against each other, but it is still full of gunpowder.
Kobe Bryant's face was pale, and he always had a straight face, as if someone owed him five million. Tang Wenlong didn't bother himself, but after simply shaking hands with Kobe and hugging him, he didn't say anything to stimulate him. However, Howard looked familiar, talking and laughing with Tang Wenlong.
"I went to China in the summer, and wow, it's such a welcoming country, and the fans surrounded me at the airport, and I didn't know I had so many lovely fans in China, which was a great feeling." Howard gushed and said a bunch of things in one breath.
Of course, Tang Wenlong was thinking about what this guy was talking about, and he still responded politely, and said with a smile: "Next time you come to China and tell me, I will invite you to an authentic dinner." ”
"Wow, that's great!" Howard made an exaggerated expression and smiled even more happily.
Over there, Kobe's face is getting darker and darker (to be continued.) )
