Chapter 1449 Under Luo City, Old Friends Are Nowhere to Be Seen
The Lakers did not give the Hawks a chance to counterattack and upset in the third game. Ji Feng's triple-double, Kobe's 30 points, and Artest's 12+8+8 left no suspense in the last quarter.
After the game, the Hawks head coach said sourly that the Lakers really had too many people who could stand up.
Barkley said after the game: "The Lakers have played team basketball to the extreme this season!"
Yes, even though the Lakers sit on the legendary Big 5, they still play a complete team basketball. The five people on the court serve the team. Although each of them has excellent strength, they play on the court. It's so harmonious.
"Although the Lakers' lineup this season is much less famous than the original F4, in my heart, this is the most perfect team in the history of the Lakers." Smith also said.
These three wins also allowed the Lakers to completely dispel people's doubts. Not only did this Lakers have no problems, but they are stronger than last season.
Artest was also completely convinced. He praised his teammates wildly after the game: "Everything here is great. I am here just for these teammates. Let's win the championship together!"
Artest is really convinced. Although his data seems to have dropped by half, his true shooting percentage has increased, and his efficiency is even more amazing. More importantly, he plays very relaxedly, has no sense of nervousness at all, and does his best. Things will happen, and victory will come naturally.
These three games gave Artest two words: perfect.
The three-game winning streak has also attracted the attention of the Lakers. The incredible winning streak at the beginning of last season is still in front of us. Now everyone is watching to see how many consecutive games the Lakers can win.
At this moment, the Los Angeles Derby was scheduled to arrive.
Although the Clippers have always been the weakest in the league, the process of these seasons is also very fixed: always competing for a playoff spot at the beginning of the season, and striving for the championship lottery at the end of the season. They play very logically. Basically, they know it before the game starts. The ending of the ship.
A sure deal.
But unlike the hard-working and transparent teams such as the Hawks and Bobcats, the Clippers' exposure rate has always been good. Although there are no supporters in Los Angeles, its popularity is not low at all. This has to be thanked for being in a The advantages that big cities gave him.
Of course, this is also thanks to his boss Sterling, a senior and silly boss. This boss is absolutely top-notch in the world. To describe it in four words, he is notorious for insulting his teammates. There is no racial discrimination that he would not dare to do. If there were a selection of the most annoying owners in the NBA, you would probably know the result without even voting.
However, Sterling still wants results. He has invested a lot of money in the past few seasons and made drastic changes to the lineup, but it is of no use.
But this season is different. Last season, the Clippers were lucky enough to get the No. 1 pick and successfully selected Griffin, the No. 1 pick, which made the Clippers highly anticipated in the new season.
From the perspective of the lineup, inside Camby, Kaman plus Griffin, Thornton at the third position, outside Mobley, Baron Davis, Ricky Davis, and Eric Gordon Potential rookies, and bench gangsters like Thomas, may not compete for the playoffs in the Western Conference in the new season, but at least they will have a chance to give it a try. At least they can get out of the lottery and change the fans' inherent impression.
The Clippers thought so too, but before the start of the season, news came out that Griffin was beaten by Ji Feng, and the subsequent development was beyond their expectations.
Originally, Griffin started training in a low-key manner after he was beaten. The effect of training with the team has always been good. He performed well in the summer league and preseason games, and Griffin's dunks were even more explosive. Many people were impressed. It is recommended that Griffin participate in the dunk contest this season.
With strong physical fitness, wild playing style, and violent aesthetics in dunks, Griffin quickly attracted the support of a large number of fans, and even the Clippers' attention increased.
As a result, amid such praise, Griffin was injured...
Just one day before the start of the 2009-10 season, Griffin delayed his NBA debut due to a left knee injury and missed the first three consecutive games.
The Clippers did not elaborate on this injury, but said that the old knee injury recurred. Because Griffin had suffered a knee injury in college, this injury did not attract people's attention and was regarded as an ordinary injury.
Before the Los Angeles Derby between the Lakers and Clippers, there was news that Griffin would return in this game, which instantly attracted the attention of many people.
Many people are looking forward to Griffin and Ji Feng competing on the same court. Although the two sides play in different positions, after the media's hype, the two sides have become antagonistic. As Griffin has been the dunk champion for two consecutive times, , many people also want to see Ji Feng and Griffin compete in dunks.
Ji Feng himself is also looking forward to it. Of course, it is different from the expectations of the fans. Ji Feng really wants to entertain the new No. 1 pick on the court. The last bullfight was not very enjoyable, so Ji Feng learned about Griffin I'm quite excited about the possibility of making a comeback.
And Griffin was not idle either. He personally expressed his desire to challenge Ji Feng in the game. He felt that he was different from before!
At this time, it might be appropriate to give him a song called 'We Are Different'.
However, on the day of the game that everyone was looking forward to, news came out from the Clippers that Griffin's comeback was ruined...
Injury examination results showed that the healing condition of Griffin's injured left kneecap had not improved. Griffin decided to undergo repair surgery on his left knee, which caused Griffin to miss all games of the 2009-10 season.
The season is canceled...
Ji Feng: "..."
reporter:"…"
fan:"…"
You're playing, you're making trouble, you can't get out of the show, why are you making such a noise...are you kidding!
So Griffin, who was originally worthy of sympathy, was instantly ridiculed by the fans, and Ji Feng, who felt that he had been teased, also exploded!
"Fuck, this guy dares to play like this. All the brothers are passing the ball to me tonight!" Ji Feng gritted his teeth in the locker room. Although the injury was miserable, provocation after you were injured was too much.
Ji Feng has made up his mind that this game must teach the Clippers the lesson they deserve!
Griffin was also very frustrated. He was really preparing to play, but in the last check he found a fracture. This also made him not only unable to play this game, but also this season. He also became Oden's Followers, becoming another No. 1 pick who was reimbursed for the season.
But even though he couldn't play, Griffin still encouraged his teammates, at least not to lose too ugly, Griffin said to himself in his heart.
However, Griffin, who was lying in the hospital for further examination, saw a massacre on the hospital TV.
The Lakers went absolutely crazy!
