Chapter 882: The Scariest Combination in NBA History?

The New York Knicks lost at home, lost in a Christmas game that was almost comparable to the Finals, and lost in a game that meant so much to almost everyone.

It is conceivable how big a blow such a loss can be to a team, after the game, Zhuang Fei can clearly feel that the fans of the New York Knicks are still in a state of distraction after the game, and the same is true for the players of the New York Knicks, they fell directly on the court, you know, this is just a regular season, not the last playoff game that determines the life and death of the season, and in fact, it is in this game that they suffered a painful blow than the playoff loss, This is the pain of a failed attempt to take revenge in front of the whole world.

Of course, the failure of revenge, the failure of revenge in front of the whole world, this is the final result of this game, and both New York fans and New York players are a little afraid to accept this result, and the same is true for the head coach of this team, Phil Jackson.

Because at the post-game press conference, the New York Knicks head coach's trance-like look made Zhuang Fei feel pitiful, of course, his spirit is still on the court, staying on the court that is destined not to lose to them tonight.

"Mr. Zhuang, congratulations, today's game is very exciting, the Los Angeles Lakers won this big battle that attracted the attention of the world"

Of course, regardless of whether Phil Jackson's expression is normal at this time, he will not be the protagonist of this post-game press conference, and the focus will not be him.

Whether it's true or not, when Zhuang Fei and Phil Jackson appeared at the post-game press conference, these reporters appeared here. Except for those that belong to New York. Almost all of them stood up and congratulated Zhuang Fei. It seems that by this time they have all forgotten that it was not so long ago that they were backing the New York Knicks to beat the Los Angeles Lakers, and it wasn't that long ago that they had been in the league that the Los Angeles Lakers would collapse.

But at this time, when this Chinese came here again as a winner, of course, they could not be the same as before, and for this. Zhuang Fei has long been accustomed to it, and he doesn't care too much.

"It was a tough game today, we had hopes of winning, but in the end we still lost, I don't have anything to quibble, the Lakers played well today, we played well, but the Lakers still won, that's basketball, there's no reason for it"

Although Phil Jackson's expression was not very normal at this time. As the hosts, he summed up the match. However, judging from his weak appearance, the head coach of the New York Knicks is a little tired, especially when talking about his team's loss, and this is the first time Zhuang Fei has seen such a look on the face of his old rival, you know, even if Zhuang Fei defeated the former Lakers head coach in the finals last season, he did not have such a look on his face, which also made Zhuang Fei a little emotional, this game is in a sense one of the most important games of the season between the two teams.

"Mr. Jackson was right, both teams played well in this game, the New York Knicks proved that they were not in the top three, and we proved that we were the number one team in the league, and this is where the gap is, of course, I don't mean to belittle the New York Knicks."

Although Phil Jackson's condition was not very good at this time, Zhuang Fei still did not intend to let go of his old opponent, and he still did not forget to ridicule the person who had been trying to trample on him, so after hearing Zhuang Fei say this, Phil Jackson on the side was also a little angry on his face, and some New York reporters on the field were also the same.

"Mr. Zhuang, it seems that you should be more of a winner, don't you think it's very ungentlemanly?"

In fact, in the face of Zhuang Fei's provocation after winning the game, soon some New York reporters stood up and prepared to question Zhuang Fei, but these people saw Zhuang Fei's seemingly smiling appearance and immediately sat down angrily, at this time they belonged to the losing side, thinking of the humiliation suffered by this Chinese in the past, these people are also extremely aggrieved, even if they confront Zhuang Fei at this time, it is they who suffer 100%, and even this humiliation will be greater, in this case, these people are also calm down again, Although this is their territory, it has now been occupied by Zhuang Fei.

Zhuang Fei and New York's past is very clear to the whole world, so it is even more true for these reporters on the scene, in this case, these people saw that the post-game press conference was so hot at the beginning, they were ready to watch a good show, but in the end, they were disappointed that those people in New York actually held back.

"Mr. Zhuang, this is the 26th consecutive win of the season for the Los Angeles Lakers, do you think the record of 34 consecutive wins is still far away?"

Of course, the reporters in New York are very cowardly today, and they are not ready to be humiliated by Zhuang Fei again, so they are ready to be spectators, but other reporters will not be spectators, although their relationship with Zhuang Fei is not very good, but they have not reached the point of New York reporters.

"I think you'll know after 8 games," Zhuang Fei said with a smile on his face as he looked at the reporters in the audience, and everyone could see that he was in a good mood at this time.

Regarding this question, in fact, when the Lakers won 20 consecutive games, someone was asking it, but Zhuang Fei has not answered positively, and this time is the same, although Zhuang Fei has not answered this question positively, but there is no doubt that the confidence on the Chinese's face now cannot be hidden at all, this guy is not as modest as he said.

Of course, although the most important thing in this game is the victory or defeat of the Los Angeles Lakers and the New York Knicks and the Lakers' 26-game winning streak is about to hit the 34-game NBA winning streak with the Grizzlies, but Kobe, who scored 82 points in this game, is also the focus, and even the reporters' pursuit of Kobe is more crazy than the Lakers' winning streak and defeating New York.

You know, after the press conference started, when these reporters asked a few questions about the game in the same pattern, they all aimed the questions at Kobe's question, you know. Kobe Bryant was one of the most important pre-game focuses. Zhuang Fei and Phil Jackson, the two NBA coaches, focused on Kobe Bryant in the pre-game war of words. Of course. When these people focused all their attention on Kobe, the head coach of the New York Knicks on the side, Phil Jackson, was a little embarrassed, of course, even if he was embarrassed, these people would not let him go.

"Kobe? Kobe Bryant was outstanding, he scored 82 points in this game, he was the top scorer in the game, and in fact I never doubted his ability to score. His scoring desire and scoring ability is one of the strongest I've ever seen, so I'm not surprised at all that he can score so many points, in fact, in the NBA, there are a large number of players who can do this, as long as they are given the highest number of shots, or when the whole team serves one person, isn't that why Chamberlain was able to score 100 points? In my opinion, Shaq's 60 points in two consecutive games in the 2001 playoffs Western Conference Finals are even more admirable, and Shaq's big triple-double of 50+ points in this game is even more amazing, he is the cornerstone of a team"

Phil Jackson's face was ugly at this time. Zhuang Fei on the side almost laughed out loud when he looked at such an old opponent, especially when Phil Jackson looked like he had eaten a fly every time Kobe's name was mentioned. Of course. Facing Zhuang Fei's look, everyone knew that he was mocking Phil Jackson, and Phil Jackson himself knew it, but at this time, even if he knew, there was nothing he could do. Who made the winner of this game not him? If he wins, now his position and encounter are Zhuang Fei's, in fact, he has already thought of no less than five sets of plans to humiliate Zhuang Fei, but at this time these plans are useless, and this is the NBA, it is such a realistic success and defeat.

"Mr. Jackson, do you still think Kobe Bryant is a poisonous cherry after this game? Or do you think you're not using him well?"

Of course, Phil Jackson was in a bad mood at this time, whether it was the result of the game or his Kobe performance, he was very embarrassed now, especially his belittlement of Kobe Bryant and the Lakers before the game are now all weapons that are slapping him in the face.

"I said, I've never belittled Kobe's strength, he's a beautiful cherry, but he's toxic to my Lakers, I don't want to hide my contradictions with him, in fact at that time we all had contradictions with him, and in fact he's been dissatisfied with me since 2000 and doesn't want to play the way I ask him, so that's why I think he's toxic, I'm not an idiot, I'm not a villain who can't see the good in a player, I don't use him well, It's not just me, of course, now I need to congratulate Coach Z, he's done a better job than me, at least so far."

At this time, Phil Jackson, who was scarred again, was already a little angry, but in the end he held back, obviously, he didn't want to lose and lose here, but at this time he would rather pull out the internal contradictions of the Lakers than admit that he really didn't use Kobe Bryant, and obviously, his answer made him the focus again, although Phil Jackson repeatedly said that he regretted not trading Kobe Bryant for Maddie when he left, But he has always insisted that there is no problem with his departure and the internal contradictions of the team, and has always believed that he can control the Lakers' locker room, you must know that in the NBA, if a coach leaves because he can't control the locker room, this is the most serious way to leave, and he will be labeled as incompetent, but obviously, now his answer is all exposed.

Originally, at the post-game press conference of this game, Zhuang Fei already thought that he was likely to be the target of the siege, but he did not expect his old rival to help him again and again, and now because of the New York Knicks head coach's answer, the reporter once again focused on the internal problems of the former Lakers, which made Phil Jackson's face even more difficult to see, although he successfully changed the topic and also snatched Zhuang Fei's focus position, but this is definitely not what he wants.

In the face of these reporters' crazy questions, and finally under Zhuang Fei's surprised eyes, his old opponent directly got together, shook his hand, and ran away, and seeing the embarrassed head coach of the New York Knicks at this time, Zhuang Fei also shook his head a little funny. At this time, the audience didn't know if it was a reporter from Los Angeles who shouted "Phil." Don't forget to prepare $100,000 for the league tomorrow" caused the audience to laugh.

The post-match press conference was joyous. That's the case for Zhuang Fei and the Lakers. It's very sad for the New York Knicks and Phil Jackson, you know, now the only person in the league who can leave without any punishment is Zhuang Fei, Phil Jackson wants to copy Zhuang Fei's behavior and needs to pay a price, because the atmosphere brought by Zhuang Fei has made more and more things in the NBA to leave the press conference, and David Stern's punishment is now getting heavier and heavier, and an angry departure is 100,000 US dollars.

Of course, Phil Jackson left. And this press conference is also back on track, or back to the focus of Zhuang Fei.

"I know everybody was surprised right now, Kobe Bryant had a great performance today, 82 points is one of the highest points in league history, he proved that he can take on a position at the heart of a team, he also proved that he is one of the best shooting guards in NBA history, and he also proved that he is one of the best players in the NBA right now, and that's why I've always recognized him, he's always been a great player."

"Of course, Kobe Bryant is a great player. The Lakers have many players who are just as great as him, and when you look at Kobe's 82 points, you probably don't notice that Webber's 25 assists in this game are also the highest of his career. He created that legend for Kobe, and he was still duel with the big shark all over the court, as did Hardaway and Hill, who carried the team in the fourth quarter and gave Bryant more time to rest, and Szzambiak helped Bryant get more room to shoot.

"Kobe's 82 points are a miracle, but this miracle is not his alone, we are still a collective, this 82 points are created by our collective, and in fact, I have always believed that my basketball is as team basketball as the Lakers' basketball"

Zhuang Fei has been emphasizing that his basketball is team basketball, in fact, after coming to the Lakers, some people have always thought that Zhuang Fei will give up his basketball concept, you know, Zhuang Fei established Kobe's core position as soon as he came to the Lakers, and what kind of player Kobe Bryant, everyone knows, this is a player with an extremely selfish way of playing, no one will think that this Chinese can instill his basketball concept into Kobe's mind, even if he has successfully transformed Maddie.

And such doubts have reached a peak after the start of this season's game, as Kobe's average points per game are getting higher and higher, and the average number of shots per game is also increasing, everyone's doubts seem to have become an established fact, Kobe is letting the whole team serve him alone, although Zhuang Fei has been saying that this is the result of the team's different division of labor, but who would believe what Zhuang Fei said at that time?

And in fact, this is also the reason why many people recognized Phil Jackson's poisonous cherry before this game, and after this game, when these people really saw that the Lakers team was extremely selfless looking for Kobe Bryant to create opportunities for Kobe Bryant for 24 seconds, they found out that this team is really a team team, even if there is a player in this team who averages 40 points per game, and at this time, no one in these people will think that the Lakers are a selfish team. Coach Z is unconditionally doting on Kobe Bryant.

This Chinese did successfully solve the problems that Phil Jackson did not solve at the beginning in the Lakers, and in terms of the use of players, this Chinese did a better job than Phil Jackson.

Of course, although these reporters agree with Zhuang Fei's words, it does not mean that they recognize Zhuang Fei's basketball concept in the Lakers.

"Mr. Zhuang, although the Lakers won this game, the game was not easy, do you think you can beat New York in the playoffs? Or is it some other interior team besides New York? ”

This was the last question of this press conference, and perhaps the most acute question for Zhuang Fei in this game, and Zhuang Fei was still smiling when he heard this question at this time.

"I don't know if I can beat other strong teams inside, but if I can continue to beat the New York Knicks, I can assure you that the New York Knicks will never beat me, and it will be like this now, and it will be like this in the future."

The Los Angeles Lakers and the New York Knicks are two of the most popular NBA teams in the United States, there is no doubt about this, after this game, the monstrous waves set off in the whole United States are not comparable to foreign countries, nearly two months of foreshadowing, and finally after the results of this game, this huge influence is not comparable to other games.

On the second day of the Christmas War on December 25, the first thing almost every American did when he got up was to pick up the newspaper that had just come out this morning, and almost all of the newspaper's front-page headlines were accompanied by the picture of the Chinese and Kobe Bryant hugging each other after the game.

"The craziest offensive performance in the NBA, Z coach Kobe Bryant teamed up to create a miracle of 82 points in a single game, will this be the most terrifying combination in NBA history?" (To be continued.) )
