Showdown, I'm the God of Basketball

Chapter 400 This year's Christmas battle attracts attention

12 Month 25 Day!
The whole of Cleveland is buzzing.

This is also the first time after a lapse of ten years that the Cavaliers have once again become the main venue for the Christmas game.

All the people in Kecheng left their warm homes and took to the streets to cheer for their home team outside the Quicken Loans Arena.

"In terms of the sensation and attention of this competition alone, I think it is no less than last year's horse riding finals."

Big Mouth Barkley said nonsense with a serious face.

Didn't he know how sensational the last horse riding battle was last year?At that time, it directly broke the NBA's ratings record in the United States.

So, no matter how sensational this match was, it probably wouldn't have reached that level.

Of course, judging from the live broadcast of the reporters around the Quicken Loans Arena before the game, it is indeed a bit exciting.

So it's no surprise that there was such an astonishment.

"From the beginning of the season, everyone has been looking forward to the confrontation between the two teams.

Coincidentally, the two teams also played a wave of terrifying winning streaks after the start of the game.

Even in the MVP and scoring rankings, the four core players of the two teams are also listed. "

Speaking of this, Cole sighed.

目前湖人队的加内特以场均25分13篮板6助攻2盖帽1抢断的数据，位列MVP榜单的No.1。

而紧随其后的就是骑士队的詹姆斯以27分8篮板9助攻1盖帽2抢断的数据，排名第二位。

好巧不巧的是，MVP榜单的第四位竟然也同样是骑士队的赵昊，场均33分5篮板4助攻1盖帽1抢断。

No.5 is also Kobe of the Lakers, averaging 31 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists per game.

In other words, the two teams, the Cavaliers and the Lakers, have already taken four of the top five on the MVP list.

This is a bit too scary.

It's no wonder that the two teams have had such good records since the start of the game.

Barkley also nodded and said: "If it weren't for the Spurs' record this season, they would still remain at the forefront.

With a rock-like 20 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists, Duncan still ranks third on the MVP list.

I am afraid that the top four places on the MVP list will be divided up by these two teams! "

Interview before the game.

The Zen master Phil Jackson, who has been regarded as the passing bishop, looked at the reporters surrounded in front of him with a satisfied face.

"This game is what we have been looking forward to, and we are also very curious to know how we can perform well against the defending champions last season."

Not to mention, since having Garnett, Phil Jackson's back has been straight and stiff as hell.

Even in the previous winning streak matchup, the Lakers did not beat the Cavaliers, Phil Jackson does not think they will be worse than the Cavaliers.

He even felt in his heart that the Lakers were stronger.

After all, it is possible to coach Garnett, who is capable of both inside and outside, offensive and defensive, and a full-fledged insider, and also has an offensive machine like Kobe on the outside.

Phil Jackson did not waste the talents and abilities of the two at all.

At this moment, he couldn't help but want to shout that sentence, the Lakers championship.

In the face of countless interviews with reporters, Kobe also seemed extremely excited.

"I think the current Lakers team is as good as any team in history.

Even more terrifying than the previous OK combination and the 72-win dynasty of the Bulls. "

O'Neal, who was spending Christmas at home and watched the game specially, was embarrassed to hear this sentence.

"So you're trying to say Garnett is better than me, you bastard!"

The Zen master who was interviewed on the spot was also very embarrassed.

He really wanted to say, it's fine if I have such a hard back now, why are you Kobe even more arrogant than me!

You don't even pay attention to the dynasty of the Bulls?

The point is that that legendary team was also coached by Phil Jackson, so what do you ask him to say now?
At this time, the Zen master also instantly remembered that when Kobe was just debuting, even Jordan never paid attention to him, let alone the Bulls.

Therefore, it is not surprising that he would say such a thing.

Compared with the arrogant interviews of the Lakers before the game, the Cavaliers are much more low-key.

Mike Brown attended the pre-match press conference with Big Z and Gooden.

He is also very sad. What does it mean that the two Cavaliers' big and small kings did not show up for such an important pre-match interview?
The reporters on the scene were more direct.

"Why didn't James and Zhao Hao attend this interview, but you brought two followers?
We have a lot to ask them. "

Big Z was so aggrieved that he was about to cry.

"I managed to attend a press conference. Is this what you unscrupulous reporters did to me?"

Gooden patted Big Z's shoulder comfortingly.

"Say it as if you were the only one who was wronged."

There was no press conference attended by James and Zhao Hao, and the reporters just asked a few simple questions in anger and stopped the interview.

Mike Brown also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then fled away.

After all, it was the first time for him to meet so many reporters like tonight.

How can you not be nervous!
On the court, James, who was warming up, still looked at Zhao Hao worriedly.

"Brother, is it really okay for us not to participate in the pre-match interview?"

Zhao Hao also stopped shooting practice, looked at the opponent and said: "Anyway, they are all asking those irrelevant questions, so don't go!
It's better to concentrate on training. "

He also wants to say that he also attaches great importance to this matchup with the Lakers, so he hopes to adjust his state to the best.

As for whether to interview or not, we will talk about it after I win the game!
James also suddenly thought of something, and then looked at Zhao Hao with a penetrating look.

"Are you afraid that when you talk about it during the interview, those reporters will make headlines again?"

Zhao Hao: Even you know this!
On the court, the game begins.

Before the halftime jump ball, Kobe also took the initiative to come over and hug Zhao Hao.

"Boy, tonight I'm going to vote so that your parents don't know each other!"

Hey, this trash talk has been sprayed so early!

Zhao Hao also showed no signs of timidity, and replied in the same way: "Then I will prevent your parents from being constipated!"

Joe Bryant: I'm constipated you uncle!

Garnett and James, who also hugged and greeted, were also embarrassed to hear their trash talk at this time.

Why does it sound like flirting!
The two could only look at each other and smile helplessly.

"Let them both fall in love and kill each other."

The Lakers starting lineup: point guard Smush Parker, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, small forward Luke Walton, power forward Odom and center Garnett.

Walton has made rapid progress this season, averaging 12 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists per game. He is also the Lakers' fourth-leading scorer.

Especially his three points!
After Garnett came to the Lakers, Zen Master seems to have expected that Kobe and Garnett will often be double-teamed by their opponents.

Therefore, he helped Wharton improve his three-point shooting ability early on.

From the beginning of the season, Walton's three-point shooting percentage has reached 36%, which is also a shooting percentage that cannot be released.

But during this time, Walton's three-point shooting percentage improved again!

He has also reached a terrifying 40% shooting rate in the last ten games.

This is the hit rate of a sharpshooter!
"However, like the Cavaliers, the Lakers also have one of the biggest shortcomings, and that is the position of point guard!"

Naturally, SSTV, which will not let go of this Christmas battle, also broadcast the game.

Director Zhang also made a very pertinent comment.
