Chapter 171: Serious Decline

The reason for the game between the Lakers and Menglong should be the duel between the Black Mamba and the Mamba disciples, but Li Hao stubbornly snatched some of the attention from the two.

Li Hao has scored 24 points in three consecutive games, and now everyone is concerned about whether Li Hao can score 24 points in four consecutive games and sit on the essence of human score control.

And Li Hao obviously didn't want to steal the title of brother in his mouth, so before the game, Li Hao silently made up his mind in his heart that this game would definitely not score another 24 points.

However, there are some things that you can't change if you want to, and there is still a mental calculation there when the game really starts, so when the game is over, Li Hao gets his data in the game.

He froze.

Li Hao, who played 35 minutes, made 8 of 14 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, and 5 of 5 free throws.

No more, no less, just 24 points, in addition to 12 assists, 8 rebounds, and 2 steals.

"Li, you still say you're not controlling points?" After the game, Li Hao didn't want to interview, but the reporter surrounded Li Hao at the first time.

"Well, I did it on purpose, in fact, I was paying tribute to Kobe" Kobe Bryant was wearing No. 24.

However, the reporter obviously didn't believe Li Hao's words, but everyone knows that this is actually just a joke, and the basketball game can really control the score, but it is really amazing to score 24 points in 4 consecutive games.

Then a new topic appeared, whether Li Hao could continue such a magical performance in the next game, scoring 24 points in five consecutive games.

In addition to Li Hao's 24 points, there are actually a lot of topics to talk about in this game, such as Menglong's tribute to Kobe, and the confrontation between Kobe and DeRozan.

This was the last time the two faced each other on the NBA stage, so both men did their best, with Kobe Bryant scoring 21 points on DeRozan's defense and DeRozan scoring 20 points under Kobe's entanglement.

There is also an interesting data between the two, that is, the shooting rate is 5 percent, and the number of shots and hits are the same, both of them are 8 of 16 shots,

The final result of the match ended with Menglong's victory.

104:108。

The Lakers are on a three-game losing streak.

………………………………………………….

The Lakers who left Toronto came to Minnesota, and their next opponent was the Timberwolves, who performed better than last season.

Wiggins and LaVine have indeed improved a lot compared to last season, the Timberwolves have played a total of 20 games, Wiggins has only two games without a double-double, and many of the remaining 18 games have scored 20+, and even have a 30+ performance at the airport, fully showing the hard work and talent of the summer.

LaVine is not as bright as Wiggins, but one of the reasons why LaVine is worse than Wiggins is that the head coach does not give him enough trust.

In his last 20 games, LaVine has only started six games and has averaged nearly 10 minutes less than Wiggins.

LaVine has averaged just 25.2 minutes per game in the last 20 games, while Wiggins has averaged 35.2 points per game.

In those 25.2 minutes, LaVine averaged 14.6 points per game and Wiggins scored 21 points in 35.2 minutes.

The gap between the two is actually not big, don't forget, the difference between the status of the two in the team is there, and the status is linked to tactics.

Then there is LaVine's mentality at the beginning of the game, he was waiting for the new season with great expectations, but he continued to be a substitute, and the head coach would rather give the veteran a chance than give him a chance as a young player.

If LaVine doesn't have the strength, then it's okay to say that LaVine's personal ability is there, maybe LaVine's static talent is not as good as Wiggins, but in terms of dynamics, LaVine is not worse than Wiggins at all.

……………………………………………………….

Playing the Timberwolves should be one of Li Hao's most anticipated games, and most of the games against the Timberwolves can achieve a good result.

But it's a pity that this time Li Hao is going to be disappointed, in today's game, Li Hao failed to limit Wiggins and LaVine as before.

Mouth scored 19 points against Li Hao, while LaVine scored 16 points in 20 minutes off the bench, plus 26 points from Towns and 37 points from veteran Kevin Martin.

The Timberwolves eventually won the game with a score of 134-125.

Downs, who was covered by Li Hao in his career debut, also held back his strength in this game, and then Hibbert was miserable, and the former All-Star, who had completely flattened, was given what he wanted in this contest with Downs.

Li Hao can't help the defense inside like the first time he played because of the relationship between Wiggins and LaVine, so coupled with the sudden outbreak of Kevin Martin, the Lakers really can't stop it.

On the Lakers' side, Li Hao is still the one with the highest performance, and Li Hao finally broke the strange "24 points" limit in this game.

He shot 10-of-18 from the field, 4-of-7 from three-point range, 6-of-6 from the free-throw line, scored 30 points, 12 assists, 10 rebounds, 2 steals, and 1 block.

In fact, today, the Lakers played well except for individual players, and played the best game of the season against Russell, who was the top pick, and scored 23 points against the Lakers second only to Li Hao, in addition to Randle with 20 points, Williams and Nick Young also scored double-doubles.

As for Kobe, after more than 30 minutes of nibbling with DeRozan in the last game, Kobe Bryant was out of shape in this game, and Kobe played only 25 minutes, scoring 11 points on 5-of-13 shooting.

Kobe Bryant is indeed old, especially this season, just compare this season with last season's regular season data, at this stage of last season, Kobe Bryant had five 30+ performances, one 40+ performance, and ten 20+ performances.

But what about this season? The score of more than 20+ is only half of last season, and there is only one game of 30+, and the rest are basically 10+.

In addition, it is the number of shots, many people think that Kobe Bryant occupies a lot of shots from the Lakers, but in the fierce NBA, it is a kind of ability to shoot, and this season Kobe's ability has declined very seriously.

………………………………………………………….

The Lakers, who have lost four in a row, will continue their road trip, and the Lakers' final stop on this eight-game road trip is in Texas, where they will face the Spurs and Rockets of the Texas Three.

Like Kobe, the Spurs' personal data has also declined quite significantly, and if you look at the data alone, the old Duncan has declined more than Kobe.

But even if the old Deng head is in a declining state, the Spurs' lineup is quite strong, and Aldridge, the only big fish in the summer, makes up for the decline of the old Deng head very well, and Parker and Ginobili still have gas in their tanks, not to mention that Leonard has evolved again.

The strength of the Spurs is also directly reflected in the record, playing 23 games in the regular season, the Spurs have a record of 18 wins and 5 losses, which is the second record in the league after the Warriors.

Therefore, even if the old Deng Tou is in a declining state, the Spurs are still a strong contender for the championship.
