NBA: James wants to team up with me

Chapter 150 Another year of Christmas war, Wang Chong and James face off again
Speaking of the NBA's December schedule, in addition to the opening of the All-Star voting channel, another hot event is the Christmas game on December 12.

The alliance understands the traffic code. Almost every Christmas war, some hot topical duels will be arranged.

Like last season, the Lakers faced off against the Heat on Christmas Day, staging the return of the Sharks to the Staples Center.

This year is no exception.

Wang Chong's Bulls team's opponent on Christmas Day on December 12th was the Cleveland Cavaliers.

That's right, the card played by the alliance is called 03 Duos Showdown.

At present, people generally have a basic understanding of the players in the 03 class.

Wang Chong and James belong to the only group, far ahead in strength, followed closely by Wade. Although they are slightly inferior to the two, the gap is not big.

The regular season has been going on for a month and a half, and Wade's performance has been very good, and his average data per game has been stable at 27+5+6, which is indeed only slightly worse than Wang Chong and James.

If the Heat can really win the championship this season as in the original history, Wade, who won the FMVP for his phenomenal performance in the finals, will also officially enter the first echelon of the 03 class, and may even be temporarily ranked behind Wang Chong and Wang Chong. Above James, but Wade is still slightly inferior to these two at this stage.

After Wade, there is Carmelo Anthony, who was once known as the unparalleled double pride with James.

This season, Anthony has finally kept up with the rest of the team. His average points per game have increased from 20.8 points last season to 26 points. Although he still has the worst performance among the four, he can still sit with the other three. On a table level.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to the above four players this season, there are several players in the 03 class who are playing well. For example, Chris Bosh, who is currently averaging 22+9 per game with the Raptors, and New Orleans David West, who averages 17+7 per game for the Hornets, Hinrich, who averages 16+5 per game for the Lakers, and others.

But except for Bosh, there is no comparison between the others and the Four Heavenly Kings of 03.

And if Bosh can stabilize his statistics at the 20+10 level in the following seasons, he will be able to integrate into the circle of these four people and become one of the five outstanding young people in the 03 class.

Off topic.

All in all, the first confrontation of the new season between Wang Chong and James, the two strongest players in the 03 class, will be in the Christmas game, and the popularity will naturally not be low.

The comparison between the two players has started since their rookie season. The two are basically comparable in terms of statistics. Wang Chong has a stronger scoring ability, but James is better in balance and versatility.

In terms of team leadership performance, because Wang Chong spent the first two seasons with the Lakers, his performance is definitely far better than James, but naturally he cannot be called a team leader with the Lakers. The team leaders are O'Neal and Kobe.

In terms of personal honors, Wang Chong is better so far. Although James has a Rookie of the Year, Wang Chong also has an All-Star AMVP. Last season, Wang Chong was selected to the best second team, and James was to the third team. Plus Wang Chong was selected to the best second team. Chong also has an Olympic MVP, so he is naturally better than James, the best rookie who is not very stable.

Fans of Wang Chong take it for granted that Wang Chong is better than James, but fans of James will naturally not admit it.

Now, finally, there is a chance for both sides to face off in a completely fair situation.

The current records of the Bulls and the Cavaliers are close. Wang Chong does not have O'Neal around him, and Kobe Bryant and other top superstars in the league are backing him. Although the Cavaliers' lineup is slightly stronger than the Bulls, the game venue is Chicago, the Bulls' home court, and they have a favorable home court situation. Next, the gap in the lineup has been minimized.

Basically, the current situation is the fairest game state that can be achieved. No matter whether either side loses the game, there is no excuse.

As early as a week before the Christmas war, the alliance began to build momentum for the battle between the 03 duo.

In fact, Wang Chong didn't take this matter seriously at all.

The reason is simple. Only players who are at a disadvantage in comparison will be eager to prove that they are stronger than their opponents through winning or losing a game.

Wang Chong is now clearly the one with the upper hand in the comparison with James. Even if there is no victory or defeat in this Christmas battle, there will be no difference for him.

On the contrary, James probably dreams of defeating him in the Christmas war to prove his strength, right?
Although Wang Chong didn't take this game that seriously, he never thought about letting James get what he wanted. The most basic thing is to go all out to win the game.

But what Wang Chong didn't expect was that such a match, which he considered to be an ordinary game, actually attracted the attention of the system and directly issued a system task.

"Ding - random mission activated."

"Mission goal: Completely defeat the Cavaliers in the Christmas game, requiring a net victory score of no less than 20 points."

"Task reward: 1000 points reward, and a random bronze badge."

As a regular season game that is basically unremarkable except for the gimmick of the Christmas battle, the reward for this mission is quite generous.

Of course, the difficulty of the task alone is worthy of this reward.

Wang Chong is quite confident in leading his team to defeat the Cavaliers. Although the outside world thinks that the Cavaliers' lineup is better, Wang Chong knows very well that the Bulls' current lineup is seriously underestimated and is definitely not as good as it seems. Unbearable.

Moreover, although James in the third season of his career has averaged 31.4 points, 7 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game in the regular season, his own strength has not yet reached his true peak, and there is still a gap between him and a few years later.

Wang Chong's head-on confrontation with James was certainly not false at all. With his teammates, it is really not difficult to defeat the Cavaliers.

But if you want to beat the opponent by 20 points, it's not that easy.

In any case, the Cavaliers in the 05-06 season were originally a team that could win 50 games in the regular season. There were only five teams in the league that could beat them in terms of record alone, and the Cavaliers also broke into the playoffs. In the second round, they fought against last season's finals team, the Pistons, in seven games before losing. They are definitely not a rookie.

If you want to beat the opponent by 20 points, Wang Chong's personal ability alone is not enough. You must work harder on tactics and strategies.

What was the weakest link of the Cavaliers in the 05-06 season?There is no doubt that it is the point guard position.

Although the Cavaliers with Big Z, Gooden and Varejao on the inside are not ranked first in the league, they will not be too far behind.

The forwards and shooting guards are James and Larry Hughes. Only at the point guard position, the Cavaliers have huge shortcomings.

The current starting point guard of the Cavaliers is Eric Snow, a little-known point guard who averaged 13+6 per game at the peak of his career. As a backup point guard for the Cavaliers last season, he averaged only 4 points per game. 3.9 points and [-] assists.However, the Cavaliers' main point guard was not very good last season and was kicked out by the Cavaliers in the offseason. Therefore, Snow could only take the starting point guard position.

Fortunately, the Cavaliers' real ball-handling point is James, and they don't need a point guard to control the court. But even so, Snow's average of 4.8 points and 4.2 assists per game this season is still far from what a starting point guard should have. level.

Snow, who was born in 1973, is about to turn 33 and belongs to the ranks of veterans. His competitive status has declined rapidly, both on the offensive and defensive ends.

Therefore, it can be regarded as a breakthrough, which requires more efforts from Monta Ellis.

For this reason, Wang Chong also watched the recent Cavaliers game videos to further confirm his judgment.

With Ellis's breakthrough speed, it is not easy to pass Snow on the court.

If you want to beat the Cavaliers by 20 points in the game, you must grasp this weakness.
-
In a few days, it's Christmas.

The Christmas atmosphere in Chicago is significantly worse than that in Los Angeles. This is not because of the difference in the city's prosperity, but because of the different development direction of the city's economic focus.

Los Angeles is a famous city of culture and entertainment. It has the world-famous Hollywood and a large number of celebrities and singers. Many movies will be released during the Christmas period, which must be packed with a stronger Christmas atmosphere.

Chicago is different. As one of the world's financial centers, Chicago has more mature and stable successful business people. It's not that successful people don't miss Christmas, but their enthusiasm for the holiday is obviously completely different.

This is just like when the Spring Festival is celebrated in China, there are still hard-working workers who work overtime in the workplace. This is the same reason. Compared with making money to support the family, celebrating the festival is really nothing.

The topic is a little far-fetched. In fact, Christmas Eve in Chicago is also very lively. The streets and alleys are covered in silver and look full of holiday enthusiasm. It’s just that Wang Chong spent Christmas in Los Angeles for the past two years, so That's why you feel this way.

In fact, whether the holiday atmosphere is lively or not really has little to do with him. Although he is a Chinese-American, Wang Chong is an authentic Chinese at heart. At most, Christmas in China means asking a girl out. Hey, it’s just an excuse for a holiday, how can it be as important as the Spring Festival?
But this year’s Christmas is a little different.

"Dangdangdangdang-"

Wearing a bright red Christmas dress and white stockings, the sexy and charming Jessica came out of the dressing room, turned around to Wang Chong, and asked with a smile: "Does it look good?"

Wang Chong's eyes were a little straight for a moment, and he nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice. "Beautiful! So beautiful!"

Jessica is simply beautiful in her Christmas limited skin.

(As usual, there is a picture here. Let’s take on the role.)

Yes, Wang Chong is not alone this Christmas. Jessica flew from Los Angeles to Chicago just to spend Christmas with Wang Chong, because this is not just a holiday, for Wang Chong and Jie It is also of great significance to Sika.

The two first met during the Lakers' Christmas Day game last year.

At that time, Wang Chongfei rushed out to save the ball and accidentally hugged Jessica. The fate of the two began from then on.

Therefore, this year's Christmas can also be regarded as the first anniversary of the two's acquaintance, so of course they must celebrate it well.

After not seeing each other for a long time, the two young lovers were naturally in love with each other. The Christmas-limited skin that Jessica carefully prepared did not last long at all. The two soon met each other frankly, and they got into the basics of you and me, and I know your depth. stage.

After a long time, Jessica, dripping with sweat after a fierce battle, curled up in Wang Chong's arms, with a hint of blush on her face.

"I have good news for you. I have passed the audition. Next, I will sign a contract with the crew. The movie will be ready to start shooting in the second half of this year."

Wang Chong nodded slightly. He knew that Jessica was referring to the audition for the heroine of "Transformers".

He didn't think Jessica would lose the election at all. Originally, the heroine in this movie was positioned as a beautiful vase. Since it was a vase, the more beautiful and eye-catching the better.

Jessica's appearance completely surpasses that of Megan Fox. In addition, the two movies "Sin City" and "Fantastic Four" were released successively, which also made her popularity a little bit hot, even if she is still not in the position Ranked among Hollywood's first-tier female stars, but ranking second-tier is more than enough.

Originally, "Transformers" was not well-received when it was being filmed, and the actors used were all unknown young actors. It originally required a lot of computer special effects production, and the actors' salaries were not high, and they also had to prepare themselves for the Razzies. Be mentally prepared, no actor with any reputation is willing to participate.

Now, finally, the somewhat popular Jessica Alba has been cast as the heroine, and her boyfriend has invested US$1000 million in the movie. Who else could this heroine be if she wasn't her?

"Then congratulations to you. Don't worry. Although this movie can't win you an Oscar, it can gain you a lot of popularity. It will also become a series of movies. At least you can continue to make two or three more movies... Well, actually Three movies is enough.”

In Wang Chong's impression, Transformers 3 is the highest-grossing film series, with a global box office of US$11.24 billion. Although the quality of the film is average, the plot is messy, and the acting is a mess, it can be seen who in Transformers went for the plot and acting. ?What everyone wants to see is the robot fight!A thrilling explosion scene.

Wang Chong’s plan is also to let Jessica Alba quit after participating in the trilogy. As for the investment in this series of movies, he is not a big shot in the industry. When the Transformers IP is launched, Hollywood’s capital will be huge. How could the crocodiles take him to play?Only when Transformers 1, as the first movie adaptation, was not particularly promising, did he have the opportunity to invest in it and get a piece of the pie.

It doesn't matter, as Wang Chong recalls more and more blockbuster movies in the future, he has more investment targets to choose from.

Filmmaking is definitely not the most profitable business. Maybe in the next few years, he can recall some other profitable businesses.

Moreover, even if he had no way of making money through investment, just by playing in the NBA and making money, Wang Chong would be able to earn a huge amount of money that he would never be able to spend in his lifetime.

When she heard Wang Chong say that Transformers would definitely become popular and make her famous again, Jessica just smiled and didn't take it to heart.

Although Wang Chong often has insights about movies that surprise her, and this is an important part of the reason why the relationship between the two develops so quickly, she really doesn't think what Wang Chong said is necessarily true. That's right, at least the outside world generally denigrates the movie adapted from this cartoon, including some professional film critics.

This was discovered after she successfully auditioned and conducted a special investigation, which made her a little uneasy, but seeing that Wang Chong was so confident about it, and even before the official release of "Sin City" and "Fantastic Four" were successful The same statement was made, so I chose to take on this drama.

She turned around to face Wang Chong, pecked him on the lips, and said: "I believe in your vision, just like I believe that you are invincible on the field. I will be there to watch the Christmas war. Can you?" You must win the game.”

"Then you have to cheer me up more." Wang Chong laughed evilly and suddenly lifted the quilt. With Jessica's exclamation, a new round of battle began.
