The three Christmas games this year are the Grievance Game Pistons vs. the Pacers, and the Lakers vs. the Heat.

The remaining game is the game between the two top three giants in the American football market, the Knicks and the Bulls.

Comparatively speaking, the Bulls and Knicks are less popular.

However, the pre-game momentum of the two major media outlets in Chicago and New York was far greater than that of the other two Christmas games.

This also made NBA commissioner David Stern, who was numb to traffic, quite happy.

I have to say that if the NBA wants to increase its local ratings and influence, it still has to rely on teams in big cities!

The Christmas battle between the Bulls and the Knicks was a decision made by Stern!

Knowing the momentum created by the two major media groups before the game, Stern also made a decision immediately to bring his family and the league's top management to Madison Square Garden to watch the game.

Feeling the atmosphere of the game comparable to the finals, Stern was quite proud.

He kept telling the league executives next to him that in the future, the Christmas game should at least ensure the traffic brigade of the Bulls and Knicks, the two big cities.

Anyway, the Bulls have Dwan, the Knicks have Anthony, and the team's record will not be much worse!

Looking at the momentum of the regular season this season, the Bulls have made the playoffs nine times out of ten, and the Knicks are not far behind.

As long as these two teams have a decent record, then the regulars of the Christmas game are very reasonable.

As for the Cleveland Cavaliers, which Stern is more concerned about, let's wait until they make the playoffs......

"Doon, don't pass the ball tonight, okay?

I want to get to the bottom of you and see what you're really capable of!

I've been following you all the time, and I know that you're very powerful right now.

So, let's unleash the energy in our body completely!

Let's use the most direct way to distinguish a superior! ”

Before the start of the game, Anthony invited Doon to play in front of the other players.

Hearing this, Doon frowned a little, not because he was afraid of Anthony, but because he was a little anxious about his good brother Anthony's emotional intelligence.

Although the Christmas war is often staged, there are many wonderful scenes of strong dialogues and stars flying each other.

But why don't other players want to shine at such a "Spring Festival Gala" and let fans all over the United States know them and remember them?

Actually, Doon also has thoughts similar to Anthony's, but Doon certainly won't say it directly.

Even in order to win over his teammates, Doon will even continue to maintain his personality and will constantly look for opportunities to pass the ball to his teammates on the field.

When his teammates are happy and want to win, Doon steps up and takes over the game, realizing the idea of winning points and winning games.

It can only be said that Anthony has never thought about what he does in the way of the team boss.

This is very similar to Durant in the future, they are all super scorers, and they are all unsolvable killers in the World Series.

But because of the lack of leadership temperament, he didn't know how to really lead the team to win, but he had no ability and became a wandering knight who was more noble than the homeless man.

Durant is more physically gifted, and he is more incomprehensible in the NBA, and he has encountered the small-ball era, which can fully show his talent.

And by meeting the right teammates, he seized the opportunity, and he was already full of honor.

Anthony isn't as smart as James, and if he can bring his talent to the South Coast, he might have a successful career.

Three-year-olds look big, seven-year-olds look old.

Anthony has to be strong in his life, and he will definitely not think about being the second child for others at his peak, so it is impossible to win the core championship.

As a good brother, Doon can only help Anthony a little at most, and when he sets up a platform at the end of his career, he will match Anthony with treatment similar to Peyton and Malone.

As for now, Doon can only remind Anthony a little, as for whether Anthony can comprehend it himself, it depends on his understanding.

In fact, Doon said bluntly in front of Anthony that he was afraid that Anthony would not have a long memory, and after a while he would go his own way again.

This is often the case with top scorers.

"Melon, passing is also part of basketball.

Don't forget how we won the NCAA championship in the first place.

You trusted me and passed the ball to me and I helped the team score some of the goals they deserved!

Passing the ball isn't what you're best at, but it's not like you can't pass the ball.

One person's power is limited after all! You should go back to yourself! ”

Anthony apparently didn't understand anything about Doon's good words.

Instead, he responded, "You have your way to win, and I'm going to try to beat you my way!" ”

Obviously, Anthony, like most players, is confident when he gets on the pitch.

But they can only play, they only play alone, and they don't know that they still need to take care of some other things on the court, and even after playing for many years, they don't know that what happens off the field will also affect the situation on the field.

As the saying goes, there is more help for the righteous and little help for the unjust.

After the game officially started, the rest of the Knicks players faintly wanted to see the taste of Anthony's jokes.

The Knicks have been rotten for a long time, and the players have long since fallen.

Finally, I have to rely on the Christmas War to brush up on data, impression scores, and the next contract.

How could it be possible for Anthony, a boss who doesn't know anything, to do dirty work and sing on stage?

As a result, as early as the first half of the first quarter, the difference between the Bulls and the Knicks widened.

Annidon, under Doon's defense, also shot only 4-of-9.

In terms of shooting percentage, Anthony mainly ended up with jump shots, which is pretty good.

But in terms of scoring efficiency, Anthony played relatively average, and even dragged down the team.

The rest of the Knicks players also looked on coldly, waiting for Anthony to lose the physical strength to hand over the ball.

For this reason, he didn't care that Doon broke through Anthony and killed him under the basket. Don't care about helping teammates score when Doon transitions offense.

That said, Knicks head coach Lenny Wilkens is also a bit of a difficult rider.

Anthony played okay personally, but the game difference was constantly widened, which was still relatively obvious.

Normally, when this happens, you should call a timeout.

Let Anthony hand over the ball, let the point guard connect the team, and improve the scoring efficiency of the Knicks with some simple balls.

However, tonight is the Christmas game, and fans love to watch this, and love to watch the star singles between Anthony and Doon.

Also to satisfy the fans, Lenny Wilkens can only be a wooden man on the sidelines.

waited until the first quarter played more than 9 minutes before Anthony, who was sweating profusely and panting, was put off the court to rest.

However, the score on the court has reached 27-15, and the Bulls have a huge lead of 12 points.

Unlike Anthony, who was sweating profusely, Doon only had some fine sweat on his forehead.

Doon doesn't need to go down to rest early, just organize in the frontcourt, connect the team, and run under the basket to get the ball and advance quickly when the Knicks outside players are playing iron.

As the boss of the team, Doon can take the ball and play alone, but tonight Doon chose to share the ups and downs with his brothers.

It's also because Doon keeps passing the ball to other teammates, and Tyson Chandler and others don't care about Doon getting a few more defensive rebounds.

Because of this, the game played two and a half quarters, and Doon took the lead in rebounding and assists, but fell behind in scoring, only 8 points.

Seeing that the triple-double was in sight, Doon also began to hit a few with the ball.

It is worth mentioning that in the Christmas war, everyone is a human spirit.

The Bulls scored a lot of points because of the lead in front, and at the beginning of the second half of the second quarter, the Bulls players on the court deliberately reduced their defensive efficiency.

Try to play a few more transition offenses and try to play longer in the fourth quarter.

Therefore, after the third quarter, the Bulls did not play the game, and the score on the court came to 83-72.

Doon also entered the fourth quarter with 16 points, 12 rebounds and 13 assists.

The bulls let go of some water, but not to lose.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Doon quickly surpassed 20 points.

Anthony also became more and more excited, and seemed to have found his form, scoring three goals in a row, and his personal score quickly exceeded 30 points, and he launched an attack on 40 points.

Doon is not in the mood for a high score, and the 20+ triple-double of the Christmas battle is already very remarkable.

However, Doon also wants to try if there is a chance to get a big triple-double of 20+20+20.

It's a pity that it's relatively easy to brush assists, you can take the initiative to brush, but it's a bit difficult to brush rebounds, after all, rebounds are not easy to control.

Besides, now Doon is also a figure with a face in the NBA.

Even if you have the heart to brush up on rebounds, you can't do ugly things like Ricky Davis or Brother Alphabet in order to make up rebounds.

By the end of the game, Doon had a big triple-double of 23 points, 16 rebounds and 21 assists, but was four rebounds short of his goal.

Of course, Doon's stats are outrageous! Doon himself was very pleased with this.

And the other protagonist of this Christmas game, Anthony, who scored 43 points in the air, although he lost, showed a sunny and cheerful big boy's smile.

"Brother, you won me again! You're better than me tonight! ”

"Melon, you also beat me in terms of scoring!"

After the match, Doon and Anthony went to the center circle and hugged each other.

Immediately afterwards, they skillfully took off their clothes, exchanged jerseys in public, and then brought them to reporters for them to take pictures.

As for the following post-game interview, Doon and Anthony also coincidentally exchanged business blows, drawing a successful end to tonight's Christmas fight.
