After defeating the Heat, the Hornets defeated the Wizards at home, as Wall, who entered the league in the same year as Wang Meng, witnessed the gorgeous voice change of the Wizards from brain-dead to super brain-dead in the Wizards.

Even so, Wall can still average 16 points and 8 assists in three seasons All-Star statistics, his strength is undoubted, what needs to be questioned is the importance that the Wizards owner and the uniform team attach to the team's record.

Hornets 109:97 Pick up the Wizards.

The Hornets immediately lost another game at the Thunder's home court. Westbrook, Durant plus Gordon's super three shots, the Hornets were directly killed by the Thunder's outside shot.

After playing the Thunder, the next four games, the Hornets won all of them.

After a four-game winning streak, the Hornets lost again against the returning vengeful Spurs.

After losing the game against the Spurs, the Hornets have a 22-4 record. The Hornets players are very excited, according to the rhythm of the bus, the Hornets can guarantee more than 60 wins in the season, although it seems a little far from the 72-10 created by the Bulls, but if they play well, they can also compete.

The game against the Spurs ends on December 23, and the next game is the league's main event, the Christmas game.

Stern miscalculated this time, he didn't expect the Hornets to play so hot this season, to be able to occupy the first place in the record for a long time, when arranging the schedule, he did not organize the Hornets' Christmas battle at all, but gave the Hornets a big holiday, from the 23rd after playing the Spurs, until the 27th flew to play the Magic away, the Hornets did not have any games.

And the Christmas battle is the game of last season's champion and runner-up Heat vs Lakers arranged, the old and new Big Three, no, it should be the Five Tigers vs the Super Big Three, which can indeed attract the attention of many people.

There is also a Spurs vs Knicks game, Nash and Stoudemire in the Knicks team have always had a lot of grudges with the Spurs, Nash won two regular season MVPs in the two years, the first year the Suns were eliminated by the Spurs in the playoffs, and the second year the Suns made a comeback, directly giving the Spurs a big zero egg revenge. The current Knicks have Nash and Stoudemire, and Anthony, which is a strengthened version of Marion, and the Knicks can be regarded as the Suns who have increased their firepower, and the two teams are also two typical of the league, one team is steady and steady and defensive, and the other team is elegant and agile and fast offensive like a rainstorm. The confrontation between these two teams is believed to be very exciting.

There are two other games, namely the Thunder vs. the Celtics and the Grizzlies vs. the Nets, both of which are confrontations between the East and the West, but the excitement is estimated to be not as good as the two teams in front.

Without the Christmas war, Wang Meng was happy, but then a phone call from Taylor suddenly made Wang Meng a little uneasy.

"Wang Meng, let's go to our house this Christmas." Taylor said over the phone.

"What?" Wang Meng was dumbfounded. "I'm going to meet the parents?"

"What? Not happy? Taylor's tone was a little unkind.

"Oh! Absolutely! Wang Meng immediately denied it, "I'm just a little surprised, I haven't spent Christmas with anyone else in the United States, and I'm just a little nervous to hear you say it so suddenly." ”

Taylor was immediately amused, "What are you nervous about?" Christmas is just like your Chinese New Year, so there's nothing to be nervous about. ”

"That's right." Wang Meng was hesitant.

"That's it! That's it! I'll pick you up in New Orleans tomorrow, ok? Taylor said directly.

“ok！” Wang Meng could only nod.

For Taylor's family, Wang Meng is naturally very clear that Taylor's parents are still alive, and his father Scott. Swift is a stockbroker while her mother Andrea. Swift is an ordinary housewife, and it is worth mentioning that Swift has a younger brother named Austin. Swift, this kid was also born in 92, just a little younger than Wang Meng.

Seeing the parents, this is probably a thing that most men in China are very afraid of, of course, this is just the concern at the beginning of the meeting, Wang Meng is still a little confident in his own conditions.

It is true that Taylor is indeed the hottest music singer in the United States, but he is not bad at present, although his value and status cannot be compared with Taylor in the first season, but after two seasons of hard work, Wang Meng now has his own conditions and is not much worse than Taylor.

In fact, this contrast is very naïve, but deeply influenced by Chinese culture, Wang Meng attaches great importance to the man's conditions in his heart, because his first girlfriend got rid of him because of a second-generation official.

In fact, this is a wrong view, but there are too many people in China who are wrong about this, and there are not many people who are more than Wang Meng, and there are many people who are less than Wang Meng.

Early in the morning of the 24th, Taylor turned to New Orleans by plane, dragged the half-dead Wang Meng, and got on the plane that flew home.

Taylor's parents live in Nashville, Tennessee, and this house here was specially purchased by Taylor for his parents in the middle of the year, worth $1.4 million, which is definitely a luxury residence, and because it was only moved in this year, the whole house is very new.

Christmas, in the eyes of Americans, is also a time for family reunion, so not only Taylor, but Taylor's younger brother Austin also rushed back to spend Christmas with his family.

When Wang Meng arrived at Taylor's house, he was nervous to death, you must know that it was the first time in his life to deal with this kind of thing, it would definitely be a lie to say that he was not nervous, but fortunately, Taylor's parents were very kind, especially Taylor's mother, who was always smiling and asking Wang Meng a short question.

Wang Meng found that he was too careful, after all, there is a huge gap between the United States and China in terms of humanities, and the son-in-law is not as shocking as he imagined when he sees his father-in-law. Hollywood movies are just movies after all.

Taylor's younger brother hadn't come back at this time, and the task of arranging Christmas decorations naturally made Wang Meng shoulder it.

Wang Meng laboriously moved a not-so-small Christmas tree to his home, slowly erected it, and then wiped the sweat from his head, looking at the Christmas tree that had been decorated by Taylor and her mother, and couldn't help but smile.

Not to mention, it's quite interesting, just like setting off firecrackers in Chinese New Year.

"Wang Meng! My dad doesn't know what he's up to on the lawn, can you go see if there's anything you need help with? At this time, Taylor, who was busy in the kitchen, suddenly shouted.

"Got it!" Wang Meng answered and walked out of the room.

As soon as he went out, Wang Meng saw Taylor's father squatting on the morning ground, holding a pair of scissors in his hand, pruning the trees around his house.

Seeing Wang Meng come out, Taylor's father smiled at Wang Meng, and then put the scissors on the ground casually. "Wang Meng, go out with me and buy some things by the way."

Wang Meng nodded, and the two walked side by side on the street.

Walking on the street, Wang Meng looked at the surrounding scenery and had to sigh Taylor's vision, this house is really well chosen, the surrounding scenery is so charming, it is definitely a good place to enjoy.

The only thing that makes Wang Meng a little worried is that the security surname of this kind of residence seems to be a bit poor, and there are security guards, but how can a few security guards see such a large residential area? There is no such situation in the Celestial Empire, no matter how good the house is, it is agreed to be surrounded by a bunch of iron fences, and there are cameras everywhere, and thieves need to weigh their own level if they want to steal.

"Wang Meng, how long have you been dating Taylor?" Walking on the road, Taylor's father suddenly asked.

Wang Meng hurriedly replied, "It's been more than one year." ”

"Really?" Taylor's father nodded, "You also know that Taylor, although she is not very old, is very precocious, she went out alone when she was a teenager, and she was able to achieve her current achievements, which has a very important relationship with her efforts." ”

Wang Meng calmed down and listened carefully to Taylor's father's words, he knew that this was the parents who were examining themselves.

Who knew that when Wang Meng was about to listen carefully, Taylor's father suddenly smiled and said, "Don't talk about this, let's go." ”

Wang Meng was stunned for a moment, a little unclear what kind of rhythm this was. "It's a bit complicated to look at American parents from the perspective of Chinese parents."

The two men bought something at the store and returned home.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Taylor's father smiled, pointed to a car parked not far away, and said, "Austin is back." ”

Austin is Taylor's younger brother, Wang Meng knows this very well, in fact, compared to meeting Taylor's parents, the most difficult thing for Wang Meng is to see this brother-in-law, approaching his age and his own similarity, this situation is the most embarrassing for Wang Meng.

"Austin, you're back, too!" At the door, Taylor's father shouted happily.

"Daddy! I'm wondering why you haven't come back yet! In the living room of the house, Austin walked up in surprise and hugged his father fiercely, and then looked at Wang Meng.

"Wow! You are Wang Meng! My sister's boyfriend? That's high! "Austin is 1.85 meters tall, but Wang Meng's height of 1.98 meters looks a little short. However, this did not affect Austin's amazement at Wang Meng. "I didn't expect to finally see a real person!"

Wang Meng smiled and stretched out a hand, "Hello! Austin, I'm Wang Meng, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

Austin and Wang Meng shook hands, and then said, "I am my sister's younger brother Austin. Swift. ”

"This kid can't speak when he's excited, it's always like this." Taylor's father smiled and shook his head.

Wang Meng: "It seems that you are not very good." ”

"Wang Meng! I'm a fan of yours! You're so good in the NBA, especially in the locker room over-the-shoulder throw O'Neal, it's so handsome. Austin looked at Wang Meng with shiny eyes: "Seriously, do you know Chinese kung fu?" Otherwise, how did you block Kobe Bryant? You're definitely going to do a little bit of effort. ”

Wang Meng smiled bitterly, unexpectedly that Taylor's younger brother Austin was still a kung fu fan.

But it's right to think about it, Austin is just a 21-year-old boy, and in the Celestial Empire, he is just a young man who has just entered college, in fact, Wang Meng is the same.

"Okay, don't pester Wang Meng! Hurry up and help! It's time to eat! At this time, Taylor's mother came over and helped Chenggong help Wang Meng break the siege.

"Wang Meng! You must teach me kung fu in a while. "Austin hasn't forgotten about it.

Wang Meng was sweating profusely, what kind of Chinese kung fu would he have there.

Christmas in the United States, where a group of people sit at home and eat, often sing Christmas songs, and then watch Christmas programs on TV, is very similar to the Chinese New Year.

Wang Meng originally went out with Taylor after dinner to see the scenery of Nashville, the mecca of American music, but before he could say it, he was forced to watch the so-called NBA Christmas Game with Austin in front of the TV.

In front of the TV, it was the Lakers vs Heat battle.

To Wang Meng's surprise, Austin turned out to be a fan of the Heat.

"My favorite is LeBron, before you show up, brother-in-law, of course! Now my idol is definitely you, James or something. Austin said nonchalantly: "If he has the ability, he will also block a basketball that is about to exceed the top edge of the rebound, otherwise he will also put O'Neal if he has the ability." ”

Wang sweated violently, he cautiously glanced at Taylor's parents, such a thing as violence on the court is not what parents like.

To Wang Meng's relief, Taylor's parents did not show much dissatisfaction because of this, but Taylor glanced at Wang Meng fiercely.

"Watch the game! Watch the game! Wang Meng sneered.

Although Austin likes the Heat, but on the court, it is the Lakers who have the advantage, and there is no way, Howard completely burst in this game.

Prior to this game, the Heat had the second-best record in the West and third in the league, behind the Hornets and Spurs. The Lakers, on the other hand, can only be third in the West and fourth in the league.

This ranking is already a big shame for the Super Three. Last season's run-in was insufficient, and the record was generally excusable, but this season's record is still so tepid, how can you make the strong Kobe, Paul, and Howard stand it?

So today, in the much-anticipated Christmas War, the Lakers have long breathed a sigh of relief and want to wash the Heat in blood, and in the face of the Heat without an inside line, Howard is like an invincible beast, grabbing rebounds, dunking, and omnipotent.

Bosh was bullied by Gasol last time, this time it was good, and he was trained by Howard again, unlike Gasol, Howard has an overwhelming advantage in terms of strength, and Bosh is like a ball that Howard keeps squeezing and squeezing over.

In the first half, the Lakers relied on Howard's excellent play to suppress the Heat and play again, but in the second half, the situation suddenly changed, and the Heat's three-point shot suddenly burst like a flood, and kept going underground, directly drowning the Lakers, a team with a meaning related to water.

Howard watched 27 points and 15 rebounds in the third quarter of the game, but he was extremely depressed to watch the score gap between the two teams getting bigger and bigger.

The Heat scored 39 points in the third quarter, 35 points in the fourth quarter, and 74 points in the second half to reverse the Lakers with a total score of 129-120.

Among the Lakers' super triumvirate, Kobe Bryant scored 35 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, Howard scored 31 points and 18 rebounds, Paul scored 18 points and 14 assists, and the statistics of the Big Three combined had 84 points, 25 rebounds and 20 assists, but they still lost to the Heat.

This is something that can't be helped, the Heat's three-point shooting is too rebellious, not to mention the scoring of the Big Three, talking about the three-point shooting of the Heat players, it is enough to scare many people to death.

James made 3 of 5 three-pointers, Wade made 1 of 3, Kidd 3 of 5, Ray Allen 4 of 6, Chalmers 2 of 4, Battier 4 of 5, Miller 3 of 3 and Kerr 1 of 2.

The eight men made a total of 21 three-pointers, nearly breaking the Magic team's record of 23 three-pointers in a single game.

The Heat scored 63 points on a single three-point shot, not to mention that the Heat also have sharp breakthroughs and mid-range shots?

Austin was very excited to watch this game, "The Heat is so strong, this three-point rain is coming up, and no team in the league can stop it!" This year's championship is also Heat! ”

"Not necessarily." Wang Meng said.

"Why? The Heat are so strong that they have already beaten the Lakers. Austin was a little puzzled, "It's so strong, and it's the defending champion, it shouldn't be difficult to win the championship." ”

"The Heat's interior is so bad that it's unrealistic to win a championship just by shooting three-pointers." Wang Meng shook his head and analyzed Austin: "Think about it, in the same situation, is the shooting percentage high under the basket, or the shooting percentage outside the three-point line?" ”

"Under the basket, of course!" Austin said without thinking.

"That's right, but the current Heat, there are too few offenses under the basket, most of their offensive means are on the outside, and this is really powerful when the outside shots are open, but if the outside players don't feel good, what kind of method should the Heat use to score?" Wang Meng said: "The Heat made 21 three-pointers in this game, but can you guarantee that the Heat can shoot 21 three-pointers every time?" ”

"So who do you think is the team that has the potential to win the championship this season?" Austin asked.

"Spurs, Lakers, Hornets!" Wang Meng didn't think about it, and said directly.

"Huh? And the Wasp? Brother-in-law, you're bragging. Austin suddenly smiled, "Spurs, I agree with the Lakers, but why do you want to add you Hornets, although brother-in-law you are very powerful, but I still think that the Hornets may not have a high surname when they win the championship." ”

"Really?" Wang Meng smiled faintly, this kind of thing doesn't need to be explained, because when the playoffs come, Wang Meng will be able to prove whether he is bragging.

Austin rolled his eyes, and suddenly said: "Otherwise, let's make a bet on whether this year's championship is a Wasps." If you lose, you have to promise me one thing, one thing that is not too much for you. ”

"What if you lose?" Wang Meng asked jokingly.

"If I lose, I'll agree to you dating my sister." Austin said solemnly.

"Good fellows! I'm looking for a boyfriend with your sister, and I have to agree with you. Taylor tapped Austin on the head and said.

"Of course! If you haven't even passed my level, how can you be worthy of you, sister! Austin smiled flatteringly at Taylor.
