In the first game of the Christmas game, the Nets and the Celtics gave the majority of basketball fans a classic matchup, with the crazy shooting of the tall and strong core players, the second-tier Nets without Deron and Lopez defeated the Celtics with the "Big Three".

The Los Angeles Lakers then avenged their defeat of the New York Knicks 100-94 at home in the Christmas game, with Lakers star Kobe Bryant scoring 34 points and becoming the all-time highest-scoring player in the Christmas game.

Last season's Finals opponents met in the third Christmas game, the Miami Heat defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 103-97, and the league's number one star LeBron James scored 20 points in 25 consecutive games, scoring 29 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists, which was also the first time that the Thunder lost two in a row this season, and its star Kevin Durant scored 33 points and 7 rebounds.

The fourth game of the Christmas game is the Chicago Bulls hosting the tall and strong "old club" Houston Rockets, the Bulls have played the Christmas game at home seven times in history, and won all of them, but this time, luck does not belong to them.

While the limelight has swept the league lately, the Rockets' trade for Tall and Strong is still a win-win outcome for now. After Jefferson joined the Rockets, the Rockets, who had been strengthened on the inside, became one of the most firepower teams in the NBA.

They pulled down the Grizzlies with the best defense in the last game, and today they met the defensive powerhouse Bulls, and the Rockets are still playing well. In particular, the Rockets' fast break caused the Bulls' defense to frequently fail.

So far, the Rockets have averaged 21.8 points per game, ranking first in the NBA, while the Bulls have a set of defensive fast-breaks, conceding only 12.5 points per game on average, but in the face of the impact of Harden and Jeremy Lin, the Bulls are at a loss to deal with the game.

The Rockets' starting five players all scored in double figures, with core player James Harden scoring 33 points, six assists and five rebounds, and starting point guard Jeremy Lin putting in an impressive performance with 20 points and 11 assists. New signing Al Jefferson had 18 points and 10 rebounds. Starting small forward Parsons had 14 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, while center Amir Asik showed no mercy in the face of his old boss, contributing 10 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks.

The final game of the Christmas game was the Los Angeles Clippers against the Denver Nuggets, and the Clippers won 112-100 against the Nuggets.

The two teams are among the most athletic in the league. There are many bucklers in the team who can "fly the eaves and walk the wall". Therefore, the confrontation between them is expected. Surprisingly, though, the game turned out to be a one-sided show, with the Clippers in control from the second quarter.

Most of the Clippers' starters played only the first three quarters. Chris Paul had 14 points and 12 assists, Blake Griffin had 19 points, six rebounds and six assists, and Jamal Crawford came off the bench with 22 points.

The Clippers have long left off the team's all-time 11-game winning streak and are still on their way forward, focusing on the court, as Griffin said, they don't care how many games they have won, but the 22-6 Clippers have inadvertently won 14 in a row, surpassed the Thunder in the rankings, and quietly climbed to the top of the Western Conference.

……

This is Gao Dazhuang's first Christmas in the United States, but the NBA's tight schedule makes Gao Dazhuang have no time to experience American Christmas culture, he did not light Christmas lights, and he did not even have the opportunity to taste American specialties such as roast turkey, roast ham, tamales, red cabbage roast goose, crayfish jambalay, seafood salad and other special delicacies.

Fortunately, the staff of the Nets created a good festive atmosphere for the players, and the tall and strong from distant China received many additional Christmas cards and small gifts from teammates and staff.

Especially the owner of the team, Mikhail? Prokhov even gave each player in the squad a valuable Rolex watch after the Christmas game.

Gao Dazhuang also immediately showed his gift box on Werther, and wrote: "The boss gave me a watch, this is the gift I want for Christmas", but it is worth mentioning that the gift box Gao Dazhuang received was an Audemars Piguet brand watch worth tens of thousands of dollars, which was more expensive than Rolex.

It seems that Mikhail? In fact, before the Christmas game, Coach Johnson had already revealed to Gao Dazhuang that his performance had completely impressed the owner Prokhov, and he was willing to spend three to five years building a championship-level team around Gao Dazhuang, which is the best promise that an owner can give to his players.

On the second day of the Christmas game, the Brooklyn Nets, who had no time to adjust, appeared in Milwaukee.

Milwaukee is located on the west shore of Lake Michigan and means "beautiful land," but the Nets don't have the energy to appreciate the beauty of Milwaukee.

Back-to-back games are always painful, and the pain of the showdown with the Celtics has not yet passed, and the Nets will face the challenge of the Milwaukee Bucks' "double gun".

Before the start of the NBA regular season of the new season, the Bucks completely announced the arrival of the era of team bombardment after sending the "champion" center Bogut in exchange for Ellis.

Monta Ellis and Blanton Jennings form the Bucks backcourt "double gun", Ellis's scoring ability is undoubted, whether in the Warriors or in the Bucks, he can hand in an average of 20+ per game, but Ellis's body is too thin, when playing against the strong No. 2 position, defense will become his fatal injury, and at the same time, Ellis's style of play to the basket is very susceptible to injury.

Jennings plays in the same style as Ellis, and he's also an attacking defender who is good at using his speed to hit the three-second zone to make damage.

Jennings and Ellis have combined to average nearly 40 points per game this season, and the Bucks' game is a "two-gun" four-wheel drive in the backcourt, with outside shooters waiting for an opportunity.

The strong point of the Bucks is the backcourt "double gun" composed of Jennings and Ellis. But the most unpredictable thing about the Bucks is the "double guns".

Inconsistency is the biggest weakness of the Bucks, they can rely on the "double gun" to beat the league's strongest opponent, but they can also lose to the league's weakest team, the problem of shooting percentage has repeatedly plagued the "double gun", and the ball dispute between Jennings and Ellis has been widely disputed.

"Everybody knows we're crazy about scoring, but I think everybody also thinks we can't win together, that's going to be the biggest challenge we're going to face, and I'm ready and believe he's the same," Jennings said to the media before the game.

"We'll take care of that. Even though I know a lot of people don't believe us," Ellis told reporters in the face of questioning, "because a lot of people don't believe us." So I think it's important for me and him because we have to stick together and tell everybody that we're a good couple and I've been working hard this summer. I think Brandon is like me. We are all filled with longing".

Last season, the Bucks finished ninth in the East. Unfortunately, they failed to make the playoffs, but they planned for the new season and found a good guard replacement for Ellis and Jennings - Doron? Lamb. The 42nd overall rookie in this year's draft.

Dolon? Lamb is 1.96 meters tall and plays for Kentucky in the NCAA. Davis and Gilchrist, teammates of the leaderboard, have good ability.

"We've got a really strong lineback," Jennings said before the game, "you think about it, we can all score, we're willing to share the ball with our team-mates, and if we can play at our true level, I don't think there are a few teams in the league that can stop us."

As it turned out, Jennings really thought too much, and the course of the game proved that two quasi-first-class scorers together were far less powerful than a super scorer, especially in the star-making era of the league.

The Bucks, as a small-ball city, have always had low attendance, but today the Bucks' home of the Bucks, Bradley Center, was full for the first time this season.

There is only one direct reason to attract fans to the court, because the Bucks are facing the league's hottest super rookie Gao Dazhuang, who has averaged 40 points per game in seven games after joining the Nets, and has rushed to the fourth place in the scoring list this season.

Another Chinese player!

In fact, in 07, Milwaukee welcomed a Chinese player, but he did not leave a deep impression on Bucks fans, and today Milwaukee once again welcomed a young Chinese player, who made Bucks fans remember himself deeply today.

Although before the game against the Bucks, Nets coach Johnson made a point of emphasizing to the whole team that the Nets need to play a positive attitude other than that, and he needs everyone to be actively involved in the team's offense and defense.

But after the opening, Gao Dazhuang swept away the frozen feeling of the previous game, came up and shot 4 of 4, and hit a wave of 9:0 attack alone.

Despite yesterday's tough battle with the Celtics, the Nets played hard enough in the opening game, and they gradually built up their lead under the leadership of the tall and strong.

But after the Nets took a 19-point lead in the second half, the inexperienced showed their negligence again, starting with the Bucks' "double guns" at the end of the third quarter, and almost successfully turned the game around.

The entire fourth quarter evolved into a matchup between the Bucks' golden "two guns" and the tall and strong, the Nets adopted a man-to-man defense, Brooks and the tall and strong did their jobs well in the opposite position, and Jennings and Ellis did not have a high shooting percentage.

The Bucks adopted a double bag for the tall and strong, but no matter how many people were standing in front of them, the tall and strong always went forward to impact the Bucks' basket.

For the first time, he enjoyed the privilege of being a "big player", making 15 of 17 free throws and forcing Bucks center Larry Sanders to leave the court with six fouls.

At the most critical moment of the foot power of both sides, Gao Dazhuang's stable free throws defeated Jennings and Ellis's brainless shots, especially in the final minute, Gao Dazhuang once again showed his value as a "cornerstone", a score, an assist, and a key rebound.

In the end, the Nets kept their eyes on the pressure and won the game 116-108.

At the post-game press conference, Coach Johnson took a long breath and said: "I think we started the game today with the right mentality, we were a little inconsistent in the second half, but in the end we found a solution, the Bucks struggled but continued to fight back, always impacting us, we were a little slow to respond, but there were still some positives on the court to be positive."

Coach Johnson's positives include Gerard Wallace's 15 points and 15 rebounds, as well as accurate outside three-pointers from Brooks, Stackhouse, and others.

Of course, it also includes the biggest contributor to the win, Gao Dazhuang, who shot 27 times again in this game, hitting 11 of them, with a shooting rate of only 40%, which is not even as good as the Bucks' "double guns", but Gao Dazhuang has an amazing free throw of 15 of 17 in this game.

The excellent ability to impact the basket made the tall and strong still contribute a game-high 39 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists despite not shooting high.

"We started to lose a bit of concentration in the second half, it was a natural mental relaxation and we have to reflect on that, but in the end we won and we've been in good form lately," said Gao Dazhuang when asked about today's game in the visiting Nets' locker room, which was crowded with reporters after the game. ”

"Gao, you made 27 shots today, how do you feel?" A local Milwaukee reporter asked.

"11 out of 27? Oh no, I've had a bit of a problem with my shooting percentage lately, and I have to improve it in the game, and the only way to do that is to shoot, shoot, keep shooting, but my coach and teammates have given me enough support, I think I'll fix it," Gao replied with a smile.

There was also a small episode in this game, with 4:11 left in the fourth quarter, a fast-break dunk by the Bucks' Jennings grabbed and pulled down, and Wallace immediately stepped forward for the tall and strong, and received a technical foul for it.

Faced with reporters' inquiries, Gao Dazhuang said: "Wallace is one of the most important players in our team, he is like a brother, he gives me a lot of advice in normal times, I have learned a lot from him, especially in terms of fighting spirit, he is far more tenacious than others......

Talking about the conflict, Wallace revealed to reporters the content of his conversation with Jennings: "I just told him to let him clean up, he violated the heart of Brooklyn." (To be continued......)
