Chapter 135 Superstar Announcement
The second place in the Western Conference is equivalent to Su Yang getting an All-Star starter. This result has also been recognized by more fans. After all, Su Yang needs data and records in other aspects besides emotional bonuses.
McGrady updated Twitter and praised Su Yang as indistinguishable from his youth. Nash claimed that Su Yang had that kind of strength in an interview before the game. Kobe believed that the selection mechanism for the All-Star starters should be improved to be as reasonable as possible and meet the wishes of fans.
The controversy over Su Yang's ranking has subsided, and the Clippers arrived in Phoenix on the afternoon of the 25th.
Although he does not celebrate Christmas, Su Yang does as the Romans do, and as the boss of the team, he gave each teammate a Rolex watch as a souvenir, and also gave Tucker a pair of classic AJ sneakers.
The stingy Sterling also announced for the first time that he would give everyone, including the staff, a Christmas gift, but it turned out that everyone became a senior member of the real estate company he was planning to build, and they could get a [-]% discount for handling various businesses.
It was the Christmas game, the league arranged five games, the Clippers played last against the Suns, and the game between the Nuggets and the Trail Blazers started at four o'clock. The whole team gathered in the locker room to watch, and by the way, they initiated a bet on who could score on Christmas Eve .
Except for the Clippers and Suns, all the other eight teams can choose to bet on. The settlement rule is that the winner takes all. If two or more people choose the same person, they will be distributed in proportion. The maximum bet is 1000 US dollars.
After the betting was opened, Bryant quickly got the support of five people.As one of the supporters, Barnes gave the reason that Kobe had the highest score in the Christmas game over the years. According to the average concept, Kobe is most likely to become the scoring leader tonight.
LeBron and Wade were supported by several people respectively. Jordan Jr. chose Bynum rather unpopularly. The reason was that no one inside the Cavaliers could stop Bynum.
Su Yang chose Brandon Roy because the defense of the Nuggets is almost free.
With everyone's expectations, the game between the Nuggets and the Trail Blazers started. The performances of the two teams were hard to distinguish in the first 10 minutes. 7 points.
But after Roy reappeared in the second quarter, he directly scored 8 points to stop the Nuggets.
After that, Roy scored 16 points in a single quarter like a god, and continued the hot momentum. He scored 41 points in the whole game, helping the Blazers beat the Nuggets and successfully occupying the Christmas Eve headlines.
At the end of the same period, Wade only scored 30 points against the Knicks.
Considering the Celtics' defensive strength and offensive style, it is almost impossible for them to score higher than 41 in the game against the Magic. Su Yang's possibility of winning has greatly increased, leaving only Kobe in suspense.
At six o'clock, the game between the Cavaliers and the Lakers started at the Staples Center, and the two teams attended in costumes.
ESPN reports that ticket prices for the game have skyrocketed to $250 for the worst hilltop spot.The generals of the Clippers shook their heads and sighed, but after all, it was James playing Kobe, two games a season, it was worth it.
Big names gathered at the scene, such as Leonardo and other Hollywood stars sitting on the sidelines to watch the game, and the Lakers opened with a 6-0 spurt, which directly pushed the atmosphere to the climax. The famous beauty Laker Megan Fox danced and celebrated on the spot.
Unexpectedly, the Cavaliers immediately made adjustments, arranged for Big Z to appear on the stage and form a twin-tower combination with O'Neal, successfully restraining Gasol and Bynum in the interior, and played a wave of 13 to 2 softly.
The Zen master couldn't bear it and asked for a timeout to make adjustments, which caused the Lakers to be unable to open the outside line.
Kobe could only forcefully turn on the singles mode, and when the first quarter ended, the Lakers trailed by 4 points.
But after a timeout between quarters, Bynum and Gasol failed to solve the problem of scoring inside. Kobe was only 7 of 2 in the second quarter due to too much physical exertion. Even though the Cavaliers fouled 10 times in a single quarter, the Lakers still lost. Lose 5 points.
During the intermission, an ESPN reporter interviewed Leonardo sitting on the sidelines. He expressed his belief that the Lakers could complete the overtake in the second half. The nine-point gap is less difficult for champion players than solving elementary school math problems.
But who ever thought that in the third quarter, the Lakers were fully restricted by the Cavaliers and lost another 8 points.
And halfway through the fourth quarter, there is still no hope of a comeback.
Just after the referee made two consecutive fouls because of Bynum's defensive actions, many fans on the scene kept shouting and cursing, and some fans threw the level into the field, causing the security personnel on the scene to almost pee their pants.
Some people even tried to rush into the arena in the area where Leonardo was located. He left the arena ahead of time under the escort of the security guards. He did not have the courage and confidence of a hardcore Humi, but his acting skills with excessive force were once again greatly affirmed.
In the end, the Lakers lost 87 to 102, and Kobe scored only 35 points.
As for Bynum, who was supported by Jordan Teby, he scored 4 points, 3 fouls and 2 turnovers.
Fan riots and Lakers rout grab Roy headlines, many tweet about 'Cavs championship'
At the end of the same period, there was also a game between the Magic and the Celtics. The highest score was only 27.
Su Yang won the bet and said on the spot that all the chips would be used for extra funds for the post-match dinner.
Amidst the cheers, the Clippers team went to the arena to warm up, and the game against the Suns started soon.
Inspired by Roy, Su Yang used the cover to make an emergency stop many times and almost hit the shot. However, the referee whistled that the standards of Jordan and Barnes were very strict. The Clippers sent 11 free throws in the first quarter, only leading by 3 points .
In the second quarter of the game, Su Yang continued to shoot high, but the Clippers still failed to solve the foul problem. Instead, they lost to the Suns by 5 points in a single quarter. They could only return to the locker room with the backward situation and analyze and discuss it based on the video.
After the halftime break, the Clippers implemented a rhythm-pressing strategy based on the results of the discussion.
Su Yang and Randolph became the main attack points. The two scored 21 points and 8 points in a single quarter respectively. Although the Suns had a high shooting percentage, they made too many fouls to prevent them from making too many shots. Gradually fell into a backward situation.
The Clippers entered the fourth quarter with a 10-point lead, and the Suns began to attack Su Yang frantically. Stoudemire even hit big throws in a pick-and-roll with Nash, but Su Yang's personal performance was not affected, and he also had 7 points and 5 assists.
In the end, the Clippers defeated the Suns 124 to 117, and Su Yang scored 51 points, shining on Christmas Eve.
In the interview after the game, he mentioned the bet with his teammates in a joking tone, saying that he originally wanted to choose himself, because he had absolute confidence to get the highest score, and took this opportunity to prove that he was worthy of the All-Star starting honor.
Regarding this speech, Barkley believed that it was Su Yang's first public speech as a superstar.
This statement has been recognized by many media and fans. They all feel that Su Yang is challenging other superstars, and wants to win the second player in the league as a rookie, and even the absolute status of No.1 in the league.
After the Clippers had a dinner together, they flew back to Los Angeles overnight, preparing to face the mighty Celtics.
