"Anfernee is a great player, I think you've seen him this season, his work ethic has always been one of the best players in the league, he played great in Phoenix, and the fans here still love him, and he's willing to put on a show for his fans where he has been, and of course, we're happy that he's able to do all of that and lead our team to victory, Anferne. It's the same with Grant and I'm proud to have a player like them in my team."

After defeating the Suns away, the Los Angeles Lakers completely created the highest regular season record in the league that belongs to the Lakers, and after the game, in Phoenix, this place that was not very popular with the media in the past was surrounded by reporters from major media, perhaps for this NBA almost historic game, these people have been waiting for a long time, but what makes these reporters extremely speechless is that this Chinese did not mention the fact that this game broke the league's regular season record after this game, On the contrary, he praised Hill and Hardaway, who both scored 40+ in this game, especially Hardaway who returned to his old place in this game. Although the two of them performed extremely well in this game, the reporters on the scene did not need Zhuang Fei to say too much about Hardaway or Hill.

"Records? Of course, it's certainly a fun thing because the last record was also for yourself, so this kind of thing is great to break your own record"

Of course, although Zhuang Fei has been avoiding such a question, there is no doubt that this will definitely not be avoided. It's just that even if this Chinese answers this question. But these reporters were very dissatisfied with Zhuang Fei's calm face and his behavior of not having any other feelings except that he was very interesting. Again, that's not the answer they're looking for.

"Mr. Zhuang, now the Los Angeles Lakers are the team with the best regular season record in the NBA, do you think this Lakers is the strongest team in NBA history? How does it compare to the Timberwolves four years ago? The Lakers are stronger or the Timberwolves are stronger"

Since Zhuang Fei has been beating around the bush and not wanting to go home, at the end of the day, these American reporters on the scene did not follow Zhuang Fei around the bush, and at this time Zhuang Fei shook his head helplessly when he heard this question, what he hated the most was such a comparative question, he still remembers that when the Timberwolves broke the regular season record, many people were asking who was stronger between the Timberwolves and the Bulls of the year. And now it's the Lakers or the Timberwolves who is stronger. And when these reporters wanted to compare who was stronger than the Timberwolves and the Bulls, Zhuang Fei played haha, after all, he was not the head coach of the Bulls, and he was not so familiar with the Bulls, so his haha reporters also recognized it, but this time I am afraid it will be difficult, after all, these two teams are his teams.

"There is no inevitable relationship between a team's record and the strength of a team, especially in the regular season, after all, the strongest team in the NBA is the championship and not the regular season champion, and it is impossible to win the championship directly in the regular season. Of course, four years ago. Five years ago, the Timberwolves were a great team, there were too many talented players in that team, and they had a lot of basketball intelligence, and it was a team that couldn't be replicated, and the Lakers are the same now, this team has a lot of things that don't lose to the Timberwolves, and it's an equally great team, and I don't want to compare those two teams."

When Zhuang Fei said this, the reporters in the audience were obviously a little disappointed, and when they were about to ask Zhuang Fei questions again, Zhuang Fei continued to speak.

"But if I had to make a comparison, if I played 10 games with this Laker now and I played 10 games with the Timberwolves four or five years ago, the Lakers I led now would only win three games at most."

When Zhuang Fei said this sentence with some sighs, there was also a commotion at the scene, it was obvious that Zhuang Fei had already said his answer, there was no escape, the two teams fought one-on-one, and the Timberwolves were able to win 7-3 four years ago or five years ago.

"Mr. Zhuang, do you mean that the Timberwolves were stronger in the past?" At this time, the reporters in the audience also whispered to verify, but what made these reporters speechless again was that Zhuang Fei, who was still talking about the Timberwolves being stronger just now, actually shook his head directly this time and said that he denied it.

"No, I didn't say that the Timberwolves are stronger than the Lakers, I just said that the Timberwolves can beat the Lakers in 7 out of 10 games" When Zhuang Fei finally gave his own explanation, the following reporters were speechless again, and they were surrounded by Zhuang Fei's words. And when they woke up from their thoughts, they found that the Chinese had already left, which was also extremely regrettable for these people.

Of course, although it is a pity, but for these uncrowned kings, they still have a lot to write about, and the next day in the United States, basically the headlines of the major media were slaughtered by the Lakers' defeat to the Suns to set a new record for the NBA regular season record. For these American media, this incident of Zhuang Fei and the Lakers is the most important of the big things. Although the regular season is coming to an end and many teams are ready to go on vacation, the fact that the Lakers and Zhuang Fei broke the league's regular season record still caused a huge storm.

It's just that at this time, Zhuang Fei and the Los Angeles Lakers who were at the center of the storm have returned to Los Angeles, and the Lakers who returned to Los Angeles issued a silent order again under the instruction of Zhuang Fei, whether it is to the media in Los Angeles, the world or other media in the United States, and at this time, the media in Los Angeles also gave the same support as the last time Zhuang Fei broke the winning streak with the Lakers.

For the Lakers at this time, if they really respond to reporters or interviews from all over the world, then they don't have to play the playoffs, and now the media around the Los Angeles Lakers at this time is no less than when Zhuang Fei created a winning streak, in this case, Zhuang Fei can only forcibly refuse to visit to completely cool down this matter. This is also Zhuang Fei's last experience.

After the Los Angeles Lakers returned to Los Angeles, it was already April 12, and there were eight days left until the end of the regular season on April 20. And in the course of these eight days. The Los Angeles Lakers have four games left. They are home to the Mavericks, home to the Kings, home to the Timberwolves and away to the Trail Blazers, although the schedule interval between the four games is not very large, and the density of the schedule is not very large, but there is no doubt that three of these four teams are still pursuing the playoff rankings, such as the Mavericks Trail Blazers are fighting for five. The Kings are fighting for eight, and only the Timberwolves are considered to have no desire, so these four games are actually not so easy for the Lakers.

April 13, 2005, Los Angeles, Staples Arena, this is the 79th game of the season for the Los Angeles Lakers and a key game for the Mavericks to steal the fifth, before this game, the Mavericks, SuperSonics and Trail Blazers have exactly the same record. If the Mavericks lose this game, it will be more difficult to win fifth this season. This is especially true when the SuperSonics schedule is much easier than that of the Mavericks and Trail Blazers.

So this game came to the Mavericks who challenged the Lakers away from home It was absolutely desperate, in the last time the two teams met in Los Angeles, the Mavericks' head coach at that time, General Johnson, was instructed by Popovich to let him consume the Lakers and block Zhuang Fei in the game, and in the end, although the blocking failed, but there is no doubt that the little general Johnson angered Zhuang Fei, and in this game, Zhuang Fei, who was put on two lines by George Carr and Popovich not long ago, is also preparing to take the Mavericks and the little general Johnson in this game.

In this game, the Los Angeles Lakers have rarely taken Webb, Hill, Szzebiak, Kobe and Hardaway in recent times, and more importantly, these five starting combinations only played half of the game to set the tone of the whole game, and in the end, Zhuang Fei also led the Lakers to defeat the Mavericks 128-105, and after defeating the Mavericks in this game, the Los Angeles Lakers' victory came to 77 games, and the Mavericks completely withdrew from the top five, Dropped directly to seventh place.

Although Zhuang Fei and his Los Angeles Lakers have no need to defeat their opponents in the last few games, it is obvious that the Lakers are now deciding the fate of many teams, and sometimes even Zhuang Fei himself will feel frightened, after all, the fate of his enemies is actually in his hands at the end of the season, like Mavericks who basically lost the possibility of the top five because of Zhuang Fei's deliberate treatment, And even more miserable than the Mavericks is the Kings who came to challenge away on April 15.

Not long ago, this team was defeated by the Lakers at home, and also lost its eighth position by the Clippers, in this case, if the team loses again, then it will completely lose the qualification to enter the playoffs, and this game for the Kings, perhaps the only hope is that the Lakers will play all the benches in this game, and then give them a win, but when the Kings watched the last game between the Lakers and the Mavericks, everyone gave up this idea.

Especially when watching the desperate Mavericks lose by 20 points under the full force of the Lakers' main force, it makes these people a little frightened, if the Lakers really treat them like the Mavericks, then they can only accept their fate, after all, in terms of current strength and state, it is impossible for the King to beat the Los Angeles Lakers.

It's just that after this game started, the Sacramento Kings were a little relieved, and the Lakers who were all in the last game actually rested all the main players who started the last game, and at this time the Lakers' starters were Josh Smith, Jackson, Paul, Tony Allen and Bobby Simmons, this is a real full bench lineup, none of the starting five players, and when I saw the Lakers' lineup at Staples Arena, Adelman even wondered if Zhuang Fei was wrong or 'brain-dead', but anyway, this game did bring a lot of confidence to the Kings after it started, and the Kings played with great momentum from the beginning of this game, and if they could win this game, they might not be able to enter the playoffs.

It's just that Adelman and the Kings are amazed that even if their team is doing their best, the opponent's bench lineup has been able to bite them, and throughout the four quarters of the game, the Kings have never left the team, and when the team finally relied on a frontal throw from Paul to hit the board, the King at Staples Arena was completely speechless, and the King's head coach Adelman even looked at the bench players on the Lakers court with a sluggish and incredulous face.

It seemed to be a sure victory but it was lost, and the object of the loss was actually the Chinese, and the damage caused by this Chinese to this team made the king not know how to express his mood at this time.

And on April 15, the Lakers, who defeated the Kings to win the 78th game of the season, ushered in the Timberwolves, who finished second in the Western Conference regular season this season, on April 17, the team has been adjusting in recent times, and this game with the Lakers is naturally the same, and in this game, both teams have a tacit understanding to put all the starters, and it is also very tacit to let these starters play half the game, and finally all of them were replaced, and finally this game has become a bench duel between the two teams, In the end, the Los Angeles Lakers won slightly, and the final nose root was 114-99, and the Los Angeles Lakers won their 79th game of the season with this victory.

A win over the Trail Blazers on April 20 would make the team the first team in NBA history to reach 80 wins that season.

However, unlike the Timberwolves, the Trail Blazers, who can finish fifth in the West as long as they beat the Lakers, are naturally unlikely to play with the Lakers like the Timberwolves.

Of course, in the face of the Trail Blazers who are preparing to rank, Zhuang Fei is naturally not ready to return the attitude of the Trail Blazers, on the contrary, in the last game of the team, in addition to Webb and Kobe Bryant, the other three are Paul, Jackson and Mo Williams, Zhuang Fei still seems to be debugging the lineup.

It's just that even in the face of the Lakers who are debugging the lineup, the Trail Blazers, who are under great pressure in this game, have collapsed at home, and they have not been able to defeat the Lakers whose strength has obviously declined, and even the team's twin towers faced Webb in this game and actually handed over a score of 38 shots and 12 of 3, and Pau Gasol scored 8 points in 3 of 18, and he cowered and floated outside to shoot throughout the game, which seemed to be a little afraid of Weber, and Randolph's shooting rate was not high under Jackson's entanglement, In this case, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Trail Blazers 103-88 on the road, and in the end, the team also fell to sixth in the West, and the SuperSonics sat firmly in the fifth position in the West.

And for this game, perhaps more people will care about the extremely meaningful words of Kenny Smith, who is a TV commentator at the end of the game.

"This Laker and that Chinese have created a miracle that can never be broken, and this team is the most special team in NBA history" (to be continued). For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
