The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 310 Change of Dynasty
After defeating the Thunder, the Kings beat the Bucks 117:98 and won three consecutive victories again.

On December 12, the Kings played away against the Lakers.

Since the start of the game, the Lakers' record has been very dismal, only 8 wins and 18 losses. Even if Kobe returns, they still cannot let the Lakers win.

The team suffered injuries, and Lin Shuhao and Kobe's backcourt combination was quite incompatible, all of which were problems.

But the most critical thing is the decline of Kobe's strength.

The Achilles tendon injury had a greater impact on Kobe than people imagined.

Kobe's scoring average this season has dropped to 22 points, which is almost his worst data since 2000.

Therefore, under Butler's strict defense tonight, Kobe scored only 30 of 8 shots and only scored 25 points. If Nick Young hadn't exploded tonight and scored 26 points efficiently, the team would not have survived the fourth place. Festival.

The final score was 101:108. The Lakers persisted until the end, but it was still difficult to defeat the Kings.

However, although the Lakers lost, they are not useless at all.

They exhausted the King's physical strength, and the next day, the Kings faced the Warriors again.

The two teams met again, and this time the Warriors played their second best in the league.

Especially Thompson, facing the first quarter tonight, he scored 21 points alone and made 4 of 4 three-pointers. It is simply unsolvable.

With Thompson's explosion, the Warriors beat the Kings 36:20 in a single quarter, with a 16-point margin.

Sure enough, when Tang God Buddha shines, even the Kings can't stand it!
But fortunately, the Warriors currently have only Thompson breaking out alone, and the performance of the others can only be considered normal.

Therefore, the Kings played steadily from the second quarter, and gradually began to erode the point difference.

Under the leadership of Li Pu, the team continued to erode the point difference.

So, although Thompson still performed well in the second quarter and scored 12 points, the Kings still beat the Warriors 38:30 and recovered 8 points.

The Kings in the second quarter had terrible offensive ability, scoring nearly 40 points in a single quarter.

But it can also be seen from this that the team's rhythm has always been in the hands of the Warriors.

The pace of the entire game was driven by the Warriors, and the number of offensive rounds increased greatly. It was only because the Kings had a good hand that they scored so many points.

After entering the second half, the momentum of the Kings chasing points remained unabated, and the Warriors' defense was useless under Li Pu's low-post attack.

They had to use double-teams to limit Li Pu. As a result, the Kings fired frequently from outside, and the point difference was continuously narrowed. In the fourth quarter, the point difference was once narrowed to only 1 point.

But it is a pity that the physical strength of the Kings has problems at this time.

In the second half of the fourth quarter, the team's overall shooting rate began to decline, especially the two open three-pointers by Middleton and Butler, which failed to grasp, which was too fatal.

In the end, the Kings fell short, 128:118, and they had their second defeat of the season in Oakland.

Thompson became the biggest contributor to the Warriors' win tonight. He made 18 of 15 shots and 8 of 8 three-pointers. He scored 41 points with a frighteningly high efficiency.

Butler, who was leading the defense against Thompson, was about to be shot by Thompson, and he doubted his life!

After losing to the Warriors, the Kings were not hit by it. They quickly readjusted their mentality, defeated the Suns, Knicks and Nets successively, and regained a wave of three consecutive victories.

Until they came to the Boston Garden Arena, where they unexpectedly lost to the Celtics!
You know this is a Celtic team that is rebuilding!
Since the offseason of last season, the Celtics traded Pierce and Garnett. This season is the second year of the Celtics' reconstruction.

Sima Gang was selected in this year's draft... oh no, it was Smart. He was still a kid at this time, not a core material at all. No one in the team averaged more than 15 points per game!

But even so, they actually broke out tonight, and the outside three-pointers are as good as they don't need money.

In this case, no matter how strong the Kings are, they can't stand it!
In the end, the Celtics narrowly beat the Kings at 106:104 and won their ninth victory of the season.

"Thank you, Prince!"

After the game, Jeff Green shook hands and hugged Li Pu with a smirk.

After leaving the Thunder, Green joined the Celtics, but he caught up with the Celtics' reconstruction, and he did not have core abilities, plus heart surgery.

It is already a miracle to be able to stay on the court, let alone be the core.

But tonight, when he faced the Kings, he scored 30 points and became a key figure in the team's victory.

You must know that on weekdays, he averaged only 14 points per game.

"Come on, isn't it just a failure? We don't care!"

"Hahaha, this is the king who has won the limelight!"

In fact, Green is right. Today's Kings have already become the focus of the league's most attention. Other teams are studying the Kings. No matter who they are, they will beat the Kings to death.

If you lose, you should, and if you win, you can boast for a year!
This deal is worth it!

But for the king, every night's game is a life-and-death battle, and the opponent is really fighting with you!In this case, the consumption of the Kings can be imagined.

That's why, the Kings didn't lose a game in the previous month, but they lost three games this month.

With the loss of this game against the Celtics, the Kings ended all games in December and currently have a record of 12 wins and 29 losses, still ranking first in the league.

With 25 wins and 5 losses, the Warriors lost 2 games more than the Kings, still ranking second in the league.

It can be said that these two teams have left the other teams by a large margin.

Behind them are the Eagles with 22 wins and 8 losses and the Rockets with 22 wins and 9 losses. These two teams have much worse records than the previous two teams.

With the end of the Christmas battle, the All-Star voting has officially begun.

Let me add a word here, this year's Christmas game, as the league's No. [-] Kings, entered and was not selected, which is simply a joke in the world.

In fact, it's not the league's fault. They really didn't expect the Kings to be so fierce tonight!
And when the All-Star voting started, Li Pu and Curry's votes were the best.

In almost just one week, the two surpassed 80 votes.

None of the others even surpassed 50 votes.

Due to Durant's injury, James' failure to win the championship and decision [-], their popularity has been greatly reduced.

Of course, there is also Kobe, the former All-Star vote leader, whose vote rate this season is not even as good as Anthony Davis, only ranked fifth in the West.

Unknowingly, the alliance has entered the time for a change of dynasty, but everyone did not realize that this day came so suddenly!
