December 23rd.

The New York Knicks ushered in their final game before the "Christmas War".

The opponent is the Memphis Grizzlies.

After completing the "Black Eight" in the playoffs last season, they ushered in a metamorphosis this season, but because there are too many giants in the East and West this season, to the point of magic, they are only ranked fifth in the West.

And this season, the Grizzlies finished fourth in the regular season.

They are currently ahead of them:

Spurs, Lakers, Thunder and Clippers!

Take a look at the names and think about the players they have......

The Grizzlies can finish fifth, which doesn't seem like a bad thing!

What kind of "fairy bureau" is that?

There is no shame in being behind them!

What's more, when these teams meet the Grizzlies, they will also feel soft in the bones. After all, the name of "Western Meat Grinder" is not called for nothing, and any team that meets the Grizzlies will have to shed its skin even if it does not die.

So far, the "fairy teams" that lost to the Grizzlies are the Spurs and the Nets.

As for the Heat and Lakers who won them, the next game against other teams ended in defeat!

"I am invincible under the immortals, and one for one above the immortals"......

It's a fitting phrase to describe this Grizzly Bears!

The Knicks also felt a tooth for this team, and D'Antoni thought about it for a long time, and felt that it was a hard battle, even if it was a hard battle......

He flipped over the Knicks' record for the month of December.

Since losing to the Clippers, they have won another streak, and with Christmas just around the corner, the Knicks haven't lost yet.

In that case......

Then this bitter battle will not be fought!

Cook has been in good form lately, and this is another "Ohio brothers" civil war, with D'Antoni simply resting Ray Allen and pushing Cook into the starting number two.

Cook's face was full of astonishment when he heard D'Antoni's arrangement.

No......

Did happiness come so suddenly?!

Until the next day, he felt like it was a dream.

After all, he hasn't started since his rookie season.

The huge cheers from the scene made him sure that this was really ......

Not a dream!

The excitement made him want to do it.

It's just that he soon found out that he didn't seem to be able to play this "high-end game".

The Grizzlies have made a change in their starting lineup for the new season, and they have relegated OJ Mayo, the "Jordan Kobe combo" who Chris Wallace sees as more talented than Leewan, to the bench. -- Mayo has spent three seasons proving that he is indeed "a combination of Jordan and Kobe", but in the low-end game, the NBA rating is a bit high, and when opponents become more accustomed to his style of play, his efficiency on the offensive end is even more sluggish.

The Grizzlies' current roster actually has no shortage of ball handlers and scorers, whether it is Mike Conley or Rudy Gayin, they all have the ability to play with the ball.

Tony Allen is officially on the Grizzlies' starting lineup......

The Grizzlies of the "Black and White Bears" era have their strongest roster.

Whether it is facing Rudy Gayin or Tony Allen, it makes him unable to shoot so freely. Tony Allen, in particular, now has the "Kobe Terminator" on his head, and Kobe himself admitted that "his defense is the most stressful for me", which has become a nightmare for all outside players.

It wasn't until Li Wan scored consecutive singles for Mike Conley that the defender in front of Cook became Mike Conley.

Otherwise, it must be a brother who saves a brother!

Cook didn't just say this to Levan.

If it weren't for Li Wan's singles ability, the Grizzlies would not have changed their lineup.

But......

It was also Mike Conley who defended in front of Cook.

He hit the first three-pointer of the game!

One makes him less stressed, and the other makes him less stressed......

Really, it's hard to choose!

However, if you ask Cook who you will save if Li Wan and Conley fell into the water at the same time, he will definitely not hesitate to say the answer:

Li Wan!

Then let Conley grab Li Wan's leg and pull it up together......

What, you said Cook was hinting at Conley and asking him to hug Leewan's thighs too?

Don't make a fuss!

I didn't mean that~

Mike Conley had a beep dog look on his face.

He had just been slapped by Li Wan in a row.

My face is not dry!

Cook gave him another look!

What's so ......

Is Lao Tzu filming the theme of n people?

No!

Conley felt like he was a little harder.

They still have the director shouting "card"!

The head coach on his side was reluctant to call a timeout.

Just put his hands in his pockets and watched from the sidelines, which confirmed the sentence:

I had my hands in my pockets and I didn't know what it meant that my players were being abused.

On the defensive end, it's okay to let these two killers target them like this.

On the offensive end, Li Wan and Cook also stared at him, and Conley scored the first two points of the game until the end of the first quarter. Then it was almost at the end of the first half that he scored his second goal of the half......

2 out of 8!

And it wasn't just half-time, in the second half, Mike Conley still lost himself in the targeted defense of Levan and Cook.

To say that these two people know him well enough!

Let the two of them join forces, and as soon as Mike Conley twists his ass, they know, cover your nose quickly, this is a loud and smelly "loud and smelly fart"!

92 to 87.

The Grizzlies eventually won the game by five points.

It's just that Conley, who won the game, was not happy, he only scored 13 points in the game, shooting 33.3% from the field, and was covered by Cook and Lee Wan respectively.

But that's not the most important thing......

"Treat, treat!"

Cook rushed towards Conley as soon as the game ended.

The night before the game, the three of them met for a meal. Hearing that Cook was also in the starting lineup, Conley proposed at the time to take a gamble:

"Tomorrow's dinner with the lowest shooting percentage!"

Now that the game is over, although Cook didn't score as much as Mike Conley, he only scored 11 points, but he shot 40% from the field!

Not to mention Li Wan's shooting percentage......

Even in the face of "Kobe Bryant Terminator" and Rudy Gayin......

He also shot 50 percent from the field!

It's lower than usual, but it's a lot higher than Conley.

Conley wanted to ask, "Is it cheap!" ”

Just for a meal, when two people were defending, they targeted him like this!

However, what made him even more aggrieved was ......

Cook took a total of 10 shots in this game, three of which were against him to complete the score, which is equivalent to saying ......

This 40% shooting percentage is basically fed by him!

It's amazing!

Blue thin fragrance lonely!

Fortunately, the game was won at least.

Mike Conley said: "That's the price you paid me, hee~"

The laughter is very flattering, he did it on purpose!

It's just that at this time, he found that Li Wan and Cook were also laughing:

Hee-hee!

“？？？”

Conley slowly pulled out 3 question marks.

It was also the Grizzlies' last game before Christmas, so the team had an early holiday, and quite a few of the players stayed in New York, some of them with their families.

Conley stayed, his wife and children were in Memphis, but he had to make good on his promise.

By the time Conley checked out at the bar in the middle of the night with a five-figure bill, he knew what Li Wan and Cook were laughing at!

These two!

"Anyway...... I won the contest! ”

Conley whispered comfort to himself as he signed the bill.

By the time I left the bar, it was December 24th, it was Christmas Eve, and it was snowing heavily in New York as usual, but Mike Conley always felt that the snow was falling a little heavier than usual.

At the same time, an inexplicably bgm song appeared in his mind: snowflakes fluttering, the north wind Xiao Xiao......

In the morning, Nike specially sent someone to Li Wan to send "Christmas War Special Edition Signature Shoes".

It is worth mentioning that Nike has always wanted Li Wan to release a "Christmas limited model", but Li Wan refused, so up to now, Li Wan's "signature shoes" have only three in total.

This year, the Nike representative also asked Li Wan's opinion, and after getting the same answer as before, Li Wan was surprised by his answer: "Man, we will design a special edition signature shoe for you, but we will not mass produce this shoe, even if it is a limited edition, it is the only pair in the world!" ”

Hearing this, Li Wan was stunned for a moment.

The world has so much ......

Implication:

Boss, we're here to send you money!

After all, there are countless examples of limited shoes selling hundreds of thousands of dollars, and like Li Wan himself, he can also bring added value to shoes, and it should not be a problem to sell the world's only pair of "Li Wan's signature shoes" for six or seven hundred thousand dollars.

After Li Wan received the shoes, he took a special look, and he was really hearted, not just taking the "Li Wan Third Generation Signature Shoes" for a different skin, but specifically redesigning the entire shoe.

The "snowflake" decoration that symbolizes Christmas as a whole, whether it is the No. 25 representing Li Wan or the 19th pick in the first round, is changed by the snowflake mark.

At first glance, the whole shoe doesn't look like a design, but if you look closely, you will find that the small details are full.

In short, the two words are:

Pull the wind!

Taylor's eyes lit up when he saw the shoes. Although he didn't say anything, he actually said nothing:

Want~

Li Wan asked Taryn to call at that time.

Early the next morning, Taylor, who had learned the "yawning" technique with Li Wan in the middle of the night, had just gotten up and saw the same women's shoes as the "Li Wan Christmas Limited Edition" on the table.

But if you look closely, you will find that the numbers formed by the snowflakes on these shoes are not No. 25, No. 19, etc., which are related to Li Wan, but other numbers......

When Taylor saw the most obvious number, he immediately thought, isn't this the number of Glammy trophies I have?

Looking at the other numbers, Taylor found his birthday and debut date......

But in addition to these numbers, she also had several numbers that she didn't know what they meant, so she immediately checked them on the Internet, and found out:

"Have I already posted so many songs?"

"Oh, this is my album total?"

"This ...... It's the number of days I've known Li Wan ......"

……

When Taylor checked all the numbers, she immediately had a special feeling:

Isn't this my "natal shoe"!

Li Wan also woke up at this time, and Taylor happily shook the shoes on his hands, she liked it very much!

But she had a question:

Nike is too good for Li Wan, right?

Li Wan and Taylor's two pairs of shoes, if they are sold together, in terms of the influence of the two of them in their respective fields, I am afraid that two million knives will not be able to beat them.

So rush to send money......

Especially a big factory like Nike!

Li Wan told her: "When you are in the contract year, you can do whatever you want!" ”

Two million dollars looks like a lot, but if you renew the contract price given by Li Wan next, these two million dollars are nothing.

Even......

None of them can be counted as money!

Anyway, no matter who it is, they don't think that if the Knicks and Li Wan can't negotiate the final price, it will be because of $2 million......

On December 25th, it officially arrived.

New York, which is already very lively, is becoming more and more lively on this day, with waves of popularity on the streets, and various religions are celebrating the arrival of Christmas in their own ways.

From time to time, there is some gunfire accompaniment......

It belongs to American's unique "free atmosphere", which fills the streets and alleys.

Madison Square tonight can be described as "overcrowded".

The old Madison Square has been around for a long time, and although it has been expanded twice, it can accommodate more than 18,000 fans, but tonight it was temporarily increased to 20,000 seats.

makes the whole venue look at it, a piece of "black press".

However, the crowding in the back row does not affect the "starlight" in the front row.

It's another year of "competing for beauty", and Taylor Swift has become the focus of tonight with her "same couple shoes" as Li Wan.

Kylie Jenner has also been given close-ups several times as a result.

She's sitting next to Taylor Swift tonight.

Since the two reached a cooperation, they have been going in and out together recently, frequently creating hot search news.

Build hype for their products. - Like tonight, the big red lips on the lips of the two people, the nails on their hands, and some small decorations on their wrists are all new products they launched this season.

When Li Wan appeared, he brought them another wave of shots. The DJ on the scene played "Black Cat" very appropriately.

Looking at his relaxed appearance, "Black Mamba" was angry......

Doesn't this guy know what I said before the game?

Before the start of this game, Bryant specifically emphasized: "This is a war! We want revenge, and that's what ...... started."

With just this sentence, the smell of gunpowder in this game immediately became stronger.

But now Kobe Bryant looks at Li Wan like this, as if he ......

This is his ......

A one-man war?

Hemp eggs!

One thing that is well known, Kobe Bryant is a cautious eye, which makes him hold grudges, and he understands everything!

He has already decided, when the game starts later, he will give Li Wan a dismount!

Well......

"Ha, haha, hahaha, Lin, you see if I can't!"

In the warm-up half of the Lakers, Nick Young hooked the ball into the basket with a hook from outside the three-point line, and immediately headed for Jamie Lindser next to him.

Jeremy Lin "uh" for a long time, suddenly noticed a strong gaze, and hurriedly motioned to Nick Young to stop playing.

But Nick Young, who was on the rise, couldn't understand his movements at all, but said: "You come one, Lin, you also come one, I'll see if you can't!" ”

Just after saying that, he shivered coldly.

Why is it a little cold all of a sudden!

Isn't the air conditioning in this arena a little ......

Nick Young turned his head to look for an air outlet, and found that Kobe Bryant was looking at him directly, with a look of "Come on, come on, come again, I'll see if you can't!" ”

Change source app, view the latest chapters of the book on multiple sites at the same time. 】

In just one second, "Yang Shaoxia" was honest......

He also understood why he was feeling cold.

After spending so much time with Kobe, the nervous Nick Young gradually realized how paranoid and terrible his new boss Kobe Bryant was!

However, he also has dreams, and he is eager to be recognized by Kobe!

Don't forget, when he first came to the Lakers, Kobe Bryant had great expectations for him!

Now he ......

Waiting for a chance to prove yourself!

Before the game started, Li Wan chatted with Yi Jianlian again, but because Kobe's gunpowder smell was too strong, the chat between the two lasted less than 10 seconds before it ended.

The UAE whispered in Chinese:

Wow, bro, Kobe Bryant's character......

I want to talk and stop, it looks like I haven't finished speaking, but I have said everything!

Li Wan was a little surprised, because the UAE itself is a hard-working and self-disciplined player, and it is said that he should be loved by Kobe, how can it be ......

Spit on?

But thinking about Kobe Bryant's efforts to trick him back then, and made him "forced" to watch Los Angeles at 4 o'clock in the morning many times, Li Wan figured it out at once:

Kobe's love seems to be even more painful!

"Both!"

The referee's whistle aroused the excitement of all the New Yorkers, and before the game started, the shouts of "Li Wan, Li Wan" on the scene had been one after another.

Kylie Jenner looked at the pious New York fans in the audience and was also slightly stunned.

Although she knew that Li Wan was the "King of New York", she knew very well how arrogant New Yorkers were, and she didn't expect to see a different side of New Yorkers here......

On the field, Pau Gasol helped the team to take the first attack.

Kobe, who was holding back his strength and wanted to give Li Wan a "dismount" and remind him that this was a war, did not hesitate to ask for the ball, faced Artest, and leaned sideways to go up.

The "beast" thought he was going to be beaten in the back, so he simply took another step back.

But at this time, Kobe Bryant suddenly turned forward, directly formed a dislocation with his footsteps, and threw Artest behind him in the next step.

Artest was not slow to react, but his body really couldn't keep up with his thoughts.

I could only watch as Kobe Bryant squeezed past him.

"Phew!"

Kobe Bryant, who rushed to the basket, made a one-handed "strong cracker" and smashed the ball into the basket.

2-0！

The New York fans in the stadium were stunned.

"OMG, did you fight so hard as soon as you came up?"

Kenny Smith's eyes widened, and he was tempted to ask: Kobe Bryant......

Did you take gunpowder?

Is this "Christmas War" so fierce as soon as it comes up?

When "Black Mamba" got off the basket, he deliberately glanced at Li Wan, hoping to see the solemnity on this guy's face. He believes that this dunk will make him realize how much he values this game.

It turned out to be ......

"Kobe, you're still old!"

Li Wan's face is "that"?

Looking at the powerful heavy ball, the shoulders are still a long distance away from the basket, and the movements are not stretched enough.

Of course, Li Wan understands very well that Kobe Bryant's ball is a one-handed catch, and a person with such a small hand also "pulls the bow", and the ball is easy to get out of his hand. It's not easy to accomplish this!

You can't use the standards of most "slam dunk kings" to demand Kobe Bryant's "slam dunk king"!

In addition, when the age comes to 33 years old and is about to be 34 years old, there are also traces of the arrival of the "old man of the times", and the whole momentum is obviously not as strong as it has been in 10 years!

If Kobe Bryant ten years ago, if nothing else, Tyson Chandler might not have reacted to it, and he would have seen the "explosive head" wearing the No. 8 jersey of the Lakers flying past him......

Li Wan immediately looked for an opportunity to respond to Kobe's dunk.

When Tyson Chandler stepped forward to help him block a chance to get to the basket, but Bynum didn't intercept it at the first time, looking at the enough space in front of him, Li Wan knew that the opportunity was ......

Here it is!

He immediately accelerated, changed direction in front of his body, avoided Kobe's defensive interference, and killed the basket from the other side, while exerting force with both legs.

Bynum tried to jump up to intercept it, but when he jumped up and landed again, he realized that Li Wan was actually ......

Still floating in the air......

This is......

Bought a house on the basket?

Subconsciously shrugged his shoulders and hugged his head, Li Wan's whole body in the air was tense, and he was about to pull into a "reverse bow", and then the "tomahawk dunk" smashed the ball into the basket.

"Phew!"

A sound that exploded even more than Kobe Bryant's button just now made the quiet scene burst into earth-shattering cheers.

Li Wan's buckle clears the haze over Madison Square!

Kobe Bryant was stunned......

Li Wan's words just now are still in my ears:

Kobe, how old are you!

He didn't admit it at the time.

But now he has to admit that compared to Li Wan's dunk, his dunk is really an "elderly dunk......

Kelly looked at the replay on the big screen, looked at Li Wan's strong waist and abdomen, and couldn't help but say to Taylor: "Sister, you must be very 'sexual', right?" ”

After saying that, she couldn't help but clamp tightly.

Li Wan's button, she reacted!

Taylor is a little shy, and her personality is not so bold compared to the average Western girl. Especially compared with the women of the Kardashian family, her personality is more oriental.

However, in the end, she didn't hold back and still let out a soft "um".

In the 100 aspects that Taylor is most satisfied with Li Wan, in this aspect, he ranks in the top three, and it is not necessarily only the third.

Kobe Bryant, who wanted to give a "dismount", was instead "countered" by Li Wan, and the New York Knicks took advantage of this momentum to play a fierce opening, and at 5 minutes and 15 seconds, they were already 18-14, leading by 5 points.

Kobe Bryant had a stunning start, but as the game deepened, it can be seen that tonight's state was average, and he didn't score twice with a defender's layup!

It's just a defender......

Isn't that the same as an empty seat?

So......

Pass it on:

Kobe Bryant didn't go up for two consecutive empty blues!

Pau Gasol stepped up at this point and faced Lewis with a hook shot and then a high post to close the gap to just one point.

Mike Brown quickly changed formations and put Rashid Wallace on the field.

The appearance of "Roaring Tianzun" made Pau Gasol no longer so calm and freehand.

Li Wan stepped up at this time and contributed consecutive mid-range shots, one of which was scored in the face of Kobe's supplementary defense.

After the goal, Li Wan smiled. Didn't say anything.

But success infuriated Bryant.

In this case, if you don't say anything, you say something:

Kobe, how old are you!

Yes!

This, I must be trying to say this!

At the end of the first quarter, Kobe, who was eager to respond, finally missed a shot, and the Lakers won 29-36, falling by 7 points and entering the second quarter.

Kenny Smith glanced at the stats, Kobe Bryant took a total of 6 shots in the first quarter, but only hit 2 of them, shooting 33.3% from the field!

Compared to him, Li Wan's performance was much better, he also made 6 shots, but hit 4 balls, and the shooting rate was 66.6%!

That's exactly twice as much as Kobe......

"It's hard for the Lakers to play now!"

Kenny Smith's reference is based on last season's Finals.

The Lakers lost to the bench lineup.

Although Nick Young and Yi Jianlian have been brought in this season, Kenny Smith does not think that this can change the huge gap between the benches on both sides.

If you want to talk about bench reinforcement, the New York Knicks are the real reinforcement!

Odom, Cook, Stevenson and others are all sitting on the bench!

But what he didn't expect was ......

During the bench rotation, the Lakers really chased the difference of 7 points to 1 point.

Odom probably spent some time at home with his wife Khloe Kardashian on "Christmas Eve" last night, and went to a nightclub again, and tonight's whole state is called a slump.

There was even an outrageous mistake of catching the ball and getting out of his hand.

Cook threw in a 3-pointer.

But his firepower is obviously much inferior to that of "Yang Shaoxia" opposite.

With two and a half minutes and less than three minutes to play, Nick Young contributed eight points, shooting 3-of-4 from the field and 1-of-2 from the free-throw line...... To say that this guy can also be regarded as the famous "nerve knife" of the "10 era".

cast it, that is also a "singles beautiful and picturesque" role.

Tonight, that's probably the night.

Under his constant firepower, the difference of 7 points was quickly narrowed to 1 point.

Even D'Antoni was beaten by him and called a timeout.

What Kobe Bryant didn't do, Nick Young did!

He came out of the field with great dignity.

New York Knicks?

The defending champion?

Scold~

That's it!

By the way, he also glanced at Kobe.

He wanted to see what the latter's expression was......

Expressionless......

Well!

Okay, that's not enough, is it?

Then I'll just keep trying!

Nick Young's heart is particularly inflated at the moment.

He suddenly thought of what he had been longing for:

Played a performance that met Kobe's expectations......

Now it seems, it seems......

It's tonight!

Phil Jackson was also satisfied with Nick Young's performance, the Knicks replaced the main players at this timeout, and he also put the main players on the court, however, Ariza in the third position was removed by him, Kobe Bryant was pushed to the third position by him, and Nick Young continued to play in the second position!

If you are not careful, you will become the main force, you say......

Can Nick Young perform well?

Maybe after this game, he will officially enter the Lakers' starting list!

The game restarted, and Nick Young, who played with self-confidence, was quicker than Kobe Bryant and asked for the ball from Delon.

DeLong first glanced at the speechless Kobe, and then at "Yang Shaoxia", seeing that he insisted on asking for the ball, he wanted to remind: Sao Nian, you are playing with fire! Sao New Year!

Nick Young didn't listen, and he dribbled for seven or eight seconds in the face of Ray Allen, but couldn't shake off the offensive space......

But he was not in a hurry and continued to dribble fancy.

Kobe Bryant couldn't stand it anymore and clapped his hands to ask him for the ball.

Nick Young glanced at him, and Kobe Bryant hurriedly raised his hand and made a "two-handed catch" pose, and as a result, Nick Young ......

Vote for yourself!

Delon was stunned again.

"Huh!"

But tonight's Nick Young is really in good shape, this forced shot, and he actually entered!

Bryant's swear words stuck to his lips like a creeper crawling all over the wall. But the ball went in, and he couldn't scold a word.

The Law of Constant Course:

As long as the ball goes in, it's a good goal!

So much so that Nick Young didn't know that he had "died" once and continued to "play life" on the court.

Kobe Bryant gritted his teeth in anger, but he was helpless.

Because tonight his form ......

Really average!

At the end of the first half, Nick Young's head was raised even higher.

Nick Young, who only played 10 minutes in the second quarter, scored 10 points in a single quarter in the second quarter, and the efficiency of scoring one point in one minute was the highest on the entire team.

At the same time, the 10 points in a single quarter is also the highest in the team.

Li Wan scored 14 points in the second quarter, but the Knicks only led by 4 points, and Nick Young's play deserved to be credited!

This is how the ESPN live broadcast introduced the second section of the "Christmas War":

No one thought that this would be a "soaring war" between the same students in 07!

The two sides must have thought of it......

But before the game started, everyone thought it was Kobe and Li Wan!

It turned out to be Nick Young and Li Wan.

Nick Young, who returned to the locker room, glanced at his own data, then at Kobe's data, and muttered seriously: Kobe Bryant didn't play very well today!

No wonder when I returned to the locker room, I ignored anyone, lying there alone and listening to music with headphones on.

With thought in his eyes and a little bit of struggle, Nick Young walked over to Kobe.

Kobe Bryant was shaking his head slightly to the music, closing his eyes to recuperate, and suddenly felt that someone was gently pulling himself, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was the cautious Nick Young.

When I opened my eyes, I seemed to be scared of him.

The guy flinched back.

"What?" Kobe Bryant pulled the headset away and looked at the Lakers newcomer who ignored his request several times in the second quarter, but every time he was lucky, he scored a top shot.

He had to retract his previous assessment:

07th, there are really no normal people!

Nick Young didn't know that Kobe Bryant was disliking him, he thought Kobe Bryant was losing his temper because he didn't play well on his own! This is also in line with his impression of Kobe.

This guy is so paranoid!

Nick Young held out a finger and motioned for himself to say only one word, and then left:

"Boss, you slowly find your state, I will support you for you!"

Bryant:......

I'm special!

Seeing that Nick Young nodded very seriously, "Black Mamba" was completely speechless.

His silence, in Nick Young's eyes, became something else:

Impressed!

Impressed!

Boss, I'm impressed!

Well......

I must keep up the good work!
