Chapter 238 The winning streak continues, against the defending champion

On November 11, the Denver Nuggets visited Staples.

The Nuggets' starting lineup at this time is different from the last time the two teams played against each other. Jamal Murray, the No. 16 pick in 7, was put on the starting lineup.

The starting lineup has changed to Jamal Murray, Gary Harris, Wilson Chandler, Paul Millsap, Jokic.

The Lakers' starting lineup is Ball, Su Tian, ​​Ingram, Kuzma, Lopez.

Kuzma has played well in the first few games. Luke Walton intends to train and train. As for Randall, he has to continue to work hard to prove his worth.

Soon, the game started. Su Tian still used the old routine to deal with the undeveloped teacher, first taking the lead in the first quarter, and then attracting the defense to drive his teammates.

In the first quarter, the Lakers easily led the Nuggets by 32 points 26-6.

In the second quarter, the Lakers continued to exert their strength. With Su Tian's efforts in series, the Lakers once again led 38-22 in a single quarter by 16 points.

At the end of the first half, the Lakers led the Nuggets 70-48 by 22 points.

Although before the start of the game, Su Tian expected to win today, but it is true that he did not expect to win so much at halftime.

So Su Tian didn't play in the third quarter, and the Nuggets took the opportunity to recover a point difference.

At the end of the first three quarters, the score came to 99-84, and the Lakers still led by 15 points.

In the fourth quarter, Su Tian played again, and the Nuggets also played the full lineup, wanting to make a comeback.

Although the Nuggets were on the full lineup, Su Tian had plenty of rest in the third quarter, coupled with the opening of the plug-in, he continued to attack with the ball as soon as he played, and once again opened the point difference to 20 points.

Nuggets head coach Mike Malone saw that time was running out and he couldn't catch up, so he replaced all the main players and surrendered.

In the end, the Lakers easily defeated the Nuggets 127-109 and continued their winning streak.

本场苏天拿到32分11助攻7篮板1抢断,如果不是第四节持球打了几个,得分估计也上不了30分。

In this game, 7 Lakers scored in double figures. Except for Su Tian, ​​Randall scored the highest score with 24 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. He made 3 of 2 three-pointers and performed well.

Randall's performance has also been recognized by the coach. Su Tian estimates that if this state can be maintained, then the starting lineup will be almost stable.

On November 11, the Lakers continued to welcome the Chicago Bulls at home.

The Bulls also formed a lineup last season, but they were all dismantled this season, and the team's competitiveness plummeted.

The Lakers also easily won 103-94, and Su Tian only made a slight effort in the first half of the fourth quarter, and was replaced in the second half.

After the game against the Bulls, the Lakers' wonderful four-game home game is over.

On the 22nd, the Lakers played back-to-back away games against the Kings, and Su Tian rested as usual.

Then the Lakers narrowly lost the Kings 102-113 and suffered their second defeat of the season.

Although the Lakers lost, Su Tian did not participate in the game and did not cause much discussion, but the growth of young people in the team obviously made Wharton very happy.

Wharton also understands that it is because of Su Tian's leadership that the team's young people can grow so quickly, and his belief in holding Su Tian's thighs has been strengthened.

After the game against the Kings, the Lakers returned to Los Angeles. Although the next game was still an away game, there was no difference between the Clippers and the home game.

However, there are 5 days between these two games, so the team will have a holiday first, and then talk about the game.

And the reason there is such a long time gap is because of Thanksgiving.

But Thanksgiving is not particularly important to Su Tian.

So Su Tian also took advantage of this spare time to shoot some endorsement commercials and the like.

It wasn't until November 11 that the game between the Lakers and the Clippers finally came.

The Clippers changed the starting lineup again this time, Austin Rivers, Louis Williams, Wesley Johnson, Blake Griffin, Jordan Jr.

On the Lakers side, Nance returned from injury, so he went to the old starting lineup, Ball, Su Tian, ​​Ingram, Nance, Lopez.

Judging from this starting lineup, Su Tian is facing Lu Wei, which is exactly what Su Tian wants.

Soon, the game begins.

The Clippers grabbed the first attack, and Rivers Jr. advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, facing Ball's defense and passing the ball to Lu Wei.

Lu Wei didn't dare to play singles with the ball in the face of Su Tian, ​​and passed the ball to Griffin in the low post.

Griffin received the ball and began to hit Nance with his back. After consecutive backs, he turned around and made a layup.

bang - swish -

A basketball bounces off the backboard and into the net.

0-2
The possession of the ball was switched, and Ball held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt.

After coming to the front court, he passed the ball to Su Tian. Su Tian took the ball to face Lu Wei, and directly broke through without calling a pick-and-roll.

Lu Wei's defense was really not very good. Su Tian broke through easily, but there was still a little Jordan under the basket, so Su Tian stopped and shot a jumper.

Swah——

2-2
Su Tian made an easy hit from mid-range.

It's not that simple to influence Su Tian with Lu Wei's defense.

The ball was given to the Clippers again. This time, Rivers Jr. and Griffin cooperated in the pick-and-roll, breaking through and rushing into the interior, but Lopez assisted in the defense and missed a layup.

Su Tian successfully grabbed the rebound and turned around to start a fast break.

Lu Wei quickly followed Su Tian's side, but the confrontation was too poor. After coming to the basket, Su Tian collected the ball and took a European step, easily swayed Lu Wei's defense and scored a layup.

In fact, Su Tian didn't even need to use the Eurostep, and it wouldn't have any impact if he forced a layup directly.

During the offseason, the effect of Su Tian's weight gain has begun to show.

In the next few rounds, Lu Wei began to want to gradually take over the ball, but there was no particularly good way to face Su Tian's defense.

At the end of the first quarter, the score came to 34-26, with the Lakers leading by 8 points.

In the second quarter, Su Tian rested on the court. Lu Wei took the opportunity to play a few shots with the ball. Wharton saw that the Clippers were about to start and quickly called a timeout, and took Su Tian up again.

As soon as Su Tian came on the field, he stabilized the situation on the court, and broke through Lu Wei with the ball several times in a row, which exposed Lu Wei's defensive attributes.

At the end of the first half, the score came to 64-52, with the Lakers leading by 12 points.

In the third quarter, Su Tian had to rest, and Wharton also sent out a lineup that was as safe as possible, Ball, Pope, Ingram, Nance, and Lopez.

The Clippers wanted to seize the opportunity of Su Tian's absence and recover the point difference.

So in the first half of the third quarter, the two teams played very fiercely. Lu Wei's defense against Pope was no longer as submissive as he was against Su Tian, ​​and he directly became a big daddy with the ball.

And this group of young people for the Lakers is also extremely tough, and they are very hard-working in defense, not at all like they were dying to live last season.

"Su, thanks to you, these guys seem to have been reborn, and they are completely different from last season." Wharton sat beside Su Tian feeling.

"This is the result of everyone's hard work." Su Tian smiled slightly, hiding his achievements and fame.

Halfway through the third quarter, the Clippers had chased the point difference to only 5 points, and Wharton called a timeout and replaced Su Tian.

Seeing Su Tian playing, Rivers began to feel anxious. When Paul was still there last season, the Clippers played the Lakers almost casually.

But this season Paul left, and the Lakers ushered in Su Tian again. The two teams seemed to be switched. The last time the two teams played against each other, they didn't win. If they lose again this time, it will be a lot of pressure.

But Rivers doesn't have a particularly good solution. Su Tian's powerful Rivers has a deep understanding. If he can't take a big advantage before the end of the third quarter, then the game will basically be explained.

Sure enough, after Su Tian came on the court, the Lakers' offense became more organized, and the Clippers began to lose ground.

At the end of the third quarter, the score on the field became 91-82, and the point difference came to 9 points.

During the intermission, Rivers began to mobilize the team members on the bench.

"You can do it! Believe in yourselves! The difference is only 9 points! Be tough!"

"Blake! Play like you! Louis! I know Su is not easy to defend, but you are no worse than him!"

"Guys! You are all very good players, the Lakers are gorgeous but vulnerable! Go ahead and beat them!"

A group of Clippers players were agitated by Rivers, and the fourth quarter also started.

Su Tian also played at the beginning of the fourth quarter, preparing to seal the victory in the fourth quarter.

The first ball was given to the Clippers in the fourth quarter. Lu Wei came to the frontcourt with the ball and saw Su Tianshang coming to defend him. Perhaps he was influenced by Rivers and chose to break through directly.

Seeing that Lu Wei chose to break through directly, Su Tian thought that Lu Wei was going to play some tricks, but found that it was still the same old way.

So Su Tian followed Lu Wei closely, and the two came to the basket all the way. Lu Wei was about to force a layup when he received the ball, but was slapped away by Su Tian.

Although this game is the home court of the Clippers, there are not many Lakers fans at the scene, and bursts of cheers suddenly sounded.

The baseline was re-served and given to Griffin. At this time, there was not much time, and Griffin got the ball and shot directly.

boom--

Griffin shot too anxiously, and the basketball hit the iron.

The rebound was grabbed by Su Tian, ​​and he immediately started to push and switch.

Su Tian took the lead and came to the front court. Lu Wei, who was chasing behind, was pulled away by Su Tian to two positions. Su Tian directly dunked with both hands.

93-82
Lu Wei had an unlovable expression on his face, "Coach, this doesn't seem to be the same as what you said."

And Rivers gave Lu Wei a look of "Come on, I believe in you".

The ball was given to the Clippers again. After Lu Wei came to the frontcourt with the ball, he passed the ball directly to Griffin, and he ran to the bottom corner to smoke.

After Griffin got the ball, he broke through with the ball facing the frame. After hitting the basket all the way, he was double-teamed and passed the ball to Lu Wei in the bottom corner.

At this time, time is running out, Lu Wei can only shoot directly, but Su Tian is defending in front of Lu Wei at this time.

So Lu Wei's shot hit the iron as expected.

Su Tian received a pass from his teammate and wanted to play another fast break, but this time the Clippers retreated quickly and did not give Su Tian a chance, and the two sides fell into a positional battle.

After falling into the position, Su Tian called for a pick-and-roll with the ball, made a breakthrough with the help of the pick-and-roll, and then made an emergency stop to shoot a jumper.

Swah——

Su Tian continued to advance.

95-82
At this time, the point difference has come to 13 points, and Rivers knows that if there is no accident, this game should be gone again.

The next few rounds also verified Rivers' conjecture. Su Tian succeeded in singles with the ball in succession, and also showed a wave of low post singles in the middle.

With Lu Wei's defensive ability, facing Su Tian's back, it was like hitting a child.

Five minutes before the end of the game, Rivers replaced all the main players and surrendered.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Clippers 120-105 and rejected the losing streak.

The record of the Lakers came to 18 wins and 2 losses. Not to mention Wharton, even Su Tian didn't expect this result.

湖人的战绩目前是全联盟第一,勇士是15胜5负,骑士13胜7负,凯尔特人18胜4负,火箭16胜4负,马刺13胜7负。

These are the only teams that are expected to compete for the championship, and many people even think that the Lakers are not in the championship.

Of course, Su Tian didn't think the Lakers could win the championship this season, but predicting that the Lakers would be out in the first round would be too underestimating of himself.

After the game against the Clippers, the Lakers had a day to rest, but Walton didn't dare to let everyone rest too much.

Because the next game, on November 11, the Lakers will face the defending champion Golden State Warriors.

Needless to say, the gold content of the defending champion, Su Tian is even more aware of how strong Yu Yuyong's fighting power is. If he wants to win this game, he can't just rely on himself, he must rely on the hard work of everyone in the team, and even some luck .

The time soon came to November 11, and players from both sides were ready to enter the field.

In order to fight this game well, Su Tian has already started to recharge his batteries one day in advance, just to deal with today's big battle.

And those boys in the team are also very excited, looking forward to overturning the defending champion.

The starting lineup for the Warriors is still the regular starter, Curry, Clay, Durant, Green, Pachulia.

The starters given by the Lakers are Ball, Su Tian, ​​Ingram, Randall, Lopez.

Randall succeeded in impressing Wharton after the last few games and got the qualification to start today, but this match is against the Warriors. It may not be a good thing for Randall, who is starting for the first time this season.

Because this game can also be regarded as a focus battle, a national live broadcast was also arranged, and the familiar Barkley trio also sat in front of everyone.

"Charles, come on, make a prediction, or make a bet or something, and liven up the atmosphere." Kenny Smith said.

"Oh! Come on Kenny, I only bet occasionally, I'm not like Michael's gambler." Barkley responded.

"Maybe you're just afraid of losing again, kiss the donkey's butt again hahaha." O'Neill said.

"Hey, this is a studio, not a casino. I'm a commentator, and I have professional ethics." Barkley said sternly.

After the commentator made two jokes, the game was ready to start.

Lopez grabbed the ball first and the Lakers took the lead.

Ball came to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

Su Tian got the ball and saw that Clay in front of him did not attack rashly, but beckoned for Lopez to pick and roll.

Seeing Lopez go out for a pick-and-roll, Pachulia followed to the free-throw line and stopped going.

Su Tian used the pick-and-roll to break through, Clay followed Su Tian to defend, and Pachulia also wanted to help defend against interference, but Su Tian was very fast, went straight to the basket, and directly collected the ball and took off.

bang——

Su Tian came up and directly dunked with both hands.

2-0
The battle between the two sides kicked off.
