After Lei Lei and the Lakers challenged the Trail Blazers away

Lei Lei was also named the best player in the West in November! and the best rookie of the month in November!

Lei Lei is now ranked first on the scoring list with an average of 35.4 points per game, beating the Warriors' Curry!

There is no doubt that Lei Lei is a talented player, and he has made the entire league re-examine the perception of Asian strikers, as well as the perception of Asian physical fitness!

On the day of the race with the Pacers.

At the pre-match press conference.

Head coach Byron Scott also stressed the importance of the game.

"This is Los Angeles, this is Staples Arena! We have to defend the honour at home! ”

"We've won 2 in a row, and I believe that after this game, the Lakers' winning streak will come to 3 games!"

Scott is clearly confident in the Lakers players, and he firmly believes that the Lakers will win in the end.

Although the Pacers have won the last five games, in Scott's eyes, no one for the Pacers can guard against Lei Lei! There is simply no way for the Pacers to beat the Lakers on the road!

As the head coach of the Pacers, Vogel! I am also confident in this game.

Vogel has always been a confident coach, and in the 2011-12 season of the Pacers, Vogel led the team to a 20-18 record at the end of the regular season as an interim coach and returned to the playoffs after a five-year absence. Despite being eliminated by the mighty Bulls in the first round of the playoffs, the Pacers led by Vogel gave hope for a revival, and under his leadership, the Pacers gradually became a powerhouse in the East.

"We're all well aware that the Lakers are gaining momentum right now, they just beat the Warriors, and it's clear that the Los Angeles Lakers are the best team in the league."

"But I still think the Pacers have what it takes to beat the Lakers, and I'm confident in my players! The Pacers are not afraid of any team that has been on the line! ”

Vogel showed a strong desire to win at the press conference, believing that the team can beat the Lakers!

At the Staples Arena, the fans at the scene were shouting Lei Lei's name.

At the same time, there are now many fans wearing No. 23 jerseys in the stadium, and they are about to catch up with fans wearing No. 24 jerseys.

"Ray is going to blow up the Pacers at home! It's like beating the Warriors! ”

"So far, no team has been able to limit Ray's scoring! The Warriors can't do it, and neither can the Pacers! ”

"The final victory must belong to the Los Angeles Lakers!"

The fans were excited, and they thought the outcome of the match was no longer in doubt, and they came to the Staples Center to enjoy the joy of victory.

The appearance of Lei Lei gave them another hope for the Lakers' revival!

Both teams have announced their starting lists.

Pedestrian:

PG: Monta Ellis, SG: George Hill, SF: Paul George, PF: CJ Myers, C: Ian Masimmi

Lakers:

PG: Russell, SG: Kobe, SF: Lei Lei, PF: Randall, C: Hibbert.

Russell has been mentioned as a starter, and Clarkson has been put on the bench for not being as good as Russell in those games.

Paul George came back in 15 years after breaking his leg last year, and his condition is getting better and better, and it doesn't look like he has been injured at all!

It's just that the explosiveness is not as strong as it used to be, but the scoring means and defense have become better.

Aside from Monta and George, the Pacers are not well-known.

After the start of the game, the Lakers took advantage of the home-court advantage and quickly started with a small climax of 8:2.

Lei Lei didn't have any desire to attack in the opening stage, and was more focused on passing.

It's Kobe Bryant's desire to attack.

Today's Kobe Bryant started with a hot hand, hitting the basket on two consecutive outside dry shots, and did not incarnate as a 'little blacksmith', as if he didn't hit iron today and got off work.

Hibbert used his height advantage on the inside to press Masin Mi.

The rest of the Lakers' players showed great competitiveness in the opening period.

But soon, the Pacers' players found their shooting touch, and everything changed.

Monta used his speed to get inside and sometimes draw fouls from Hibbert to make it 2+1.

Paul George also found a three-point touch from the outside, and in less than a minute, the Pacers filled in the opening hole.

Although the Pacers only have one All-Star, General Joe, the team has become very proficient in tactical concepts under the guidance of Vogel.

Every player knows where they are on the pitch, how to move, how to open up space for their teammates...

In contrast, the Lakers are still single-oriented, but instead of Lei Lei and Kobe, the singles have become Russell.

As a first-year rookie, Russell has not yet reached the level of being able to connect teams, and most of the time he focuses on scoring.

After Russell's hands were cold, the Lakers' offense stalled.

In the case that Lei Lei had no desire to score, Vogel asked George to defend Kobe, who had a strong desire to attack.

George is definitely the most versatile player in the league right now, helping teams score on the offensive end while limiting the opposition's core players on the defensive end.

Under Paul George's defense, Kobe Bryant simply didn't have time to shoot during this time, and George was too familiar with his idol, just as Kobe Bryant was familiar with Jordan.

After several twists and turns, the basketball finally came to Lei Lei's hands.

As the current popular spicy chicken in the NBA, after Lei Lei got the ball, there were two Pacers players near Lei Lei.

Time is running out for the attack.

There was not the slightest tension on Lei Lei's face, and he was full of confidence in his shot.

'Brush-'

Sure enough, the basketball drew a perfect parabola in the air and fell into the net.

This is the most terrifying thing about Lei Lei.

The defenders have obviously tried their best to defend, but Lei Lei can still have 10,000 ways to put the basketball into the basket.

'Wow, it's Lei Lei! ’

"What a beautiful shooting position."

"Now I have to admit that Lei Lei has basically replaced Kobe's position with the Lakers."

"Although it is a fact, as long as Kobe Bryant does not retire, there is only one boss of the Lakers, and that is Kobe!"

Fans couldn't help but start discussing Lei Lei's importance to the Lakers on the sidelines.

The game continues.

After Lei Lei noticed that his teammates had a poor hand and no chance to shoot, he took the initiative to take on the offensive task of the ball.

The Lakers relied on Lei Lei's personal ability to pull the score away again and pull the difference to about 5.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Lakers had a firm grip on the court.

How to limit Lei Lei's scoring, this may be a headache for all coaches in the league now, there are too many scoring methods, and it is really not how Lei Lei will score next.
