Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 244: [The winning streak, falling to the altar]

On December 30, the Lakers took the underdog Rockets at home and took 27 wins.

After Olajuwon left, the Rockets didn't have an axis, and started with the blue-collar Kevin Cato.

Cardino Mobley averaged 42 minutes per game, scoring 22 points, 4 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.5 steals. He shot 44% from the field and 39.5% from three.

Steve Francis averaged 41 minutes per game, scoring 21.5 points, 7 rebounds, 6.4 assists and 1.2 steals. His field goal percentage was 41.7% and his three-point percentage was 32.4%.

At first glance, these two are quite powerful, and the offensive firepower is not bad. In fact, it is a "scattered gun and bird" game. Rocket tactics are basically not there. The start of the game is 9 wins and 22 losses.

Mobley averaged two three-pointers per game, and he was quite sure to take the shot. It was pretty good in terms of efficiency.

Francis was completely unqualified as the core. Not only did he make poor shooting choices, his shooting percentage was low, but he also made 4 turnovers per game.

The Rockets have a lower shooting percentage. This year's No. 7 show Eddie Griffin shot 36.4% from the field. He averaged 9 shots per game and only returned 8.8 points. Compared with Richard Jeff, who swapped his team. Mori, this is really a tragedy.

This time, O'Neal is the best player of the month in the West. He averaged 24 points and 10 rebounds per game, making him the most stable in the Lakers.

In 2002, the Lakers' opponents in January were almost all weak, continuing their winning streak. After defeating the Pacers on January 9, they reached an amazing 32-game winning streak.

The opponent in the 33rd battle was the Timberwolves, and the media was ready to announce that the Lakers tied the historical streak.

Unexpectedly, the Lakers fell behind at the start, 17 points behind halftime. Guo Xu and Kobe became blacksmiths. The Lakers' role players played abnormally, and after the Timberwolves veteran Trier Brandon was absent, the team did very well on both offense and defense.

Minnesota players want to win and play proactively, Alaska dogs do not show their power, you treat me as a Husky!

Billups gave Brandon a long backup, he had worn away the corners of his body, played a lot of stability, and organized the offense well. He also made 4 three-pointers.

Unfortunately, Billups is a heavy guard, and his pursuit and defense are not fast enough, and he has weaknesses against Guo Xushang. Guo Xu made three 3-pointers in the last quarter, including a three-point equalizer at 11.3 seconds, which dragged the game into overtime.

In extra time, Strović left the game with 6 offenses. O'Neal scored 4 points, assisted Jim Jackson to make a 3-pointer, and a wave of 7-0 established the advantage.

The Lakers defeated the Timberwolves in the final game, 33 consecutive victories tied the historical record.

The Lakers' 34th opponent is the Wizards.

The Wizards are weak, and it's normal to play the Lakers, but they have Michael Jordan on their team, which is more embarrassing.

This was Jordan's second comeback. When he announced that he had donated all his first season's annual salary of $ 1 million to the American people who suffered 911 trauma, it caused a huge sensation in the sports world and the entire American society.

Moreover, instead of choosing the Bulls, Jordan chose the team wizards of the American capital Washington! This choice is called a "political" choice!

It is a pity that it seems that this is a wrong decision, which made Jordan come down from the "altar" and become a mortal.

Jordan retired for the first time by waywardness, because he was already at a high altitude; his first comeback was the hope of the public, saving the sluggish nba.

Not only did that comeback not let Jordan's popularity decline, but he also pushed him to a whole new height. After all, he started his second three consecutive championships at the age of 33. Such miracles can hardly be copied.

And this time comeback, Jordan is not a championship, but personal interests.

After he retired in 1998, Jordan spent no money at all. His salary in the last two years reached 30 million, and his shoes also brought him a huge income. However, Jordan was dissatisfied and wanted to invest in the Bulls. However, the Bulls' management had conflicts with Jordan. He had to choose the Wizards.

Prior to the comeback, Jordan ’s identity was the Wizards General Manager, with a 5% -10% stake in the team. The Washington fans also bought it at the beginning, thinking that Jordan can be seen when buying tickets, but they realized that spending money can only It was different when I saw Jordan sitting in the top box smoking a cigar. In the 2000-01 season, the Wizards ranked last in the league in ticket sales.

The league stipulates that players cannot own shares in the team, so Jordan decided to emulate the 1996 "Magic".

Johnson also made a brief comeback in the 1995-96 season. At that time, he told the Lakers boss Bath that he first sold the shares to Bath. When he retired, he could buy back the shares from Bath at the original price.

So Jordan also reached an oral agreement with Wizards boss Abel Pollin. After selling his shares, he used a comeback to attract attendance, and then bought back the original price of the shares when he retired in the future.

In Guo Xu ’s previous life, it turned out that Jordan ’s appeal was indeed strong. After the comeback, the Wizards ’ticket sales rose immediately.

However, when Jordan retired again in 2003, the boss Pauline regretted not returning the shares to Jordan, and tore his face, like the Bulls that year, directly ousted Jordan and no longer let him participate in the work of any wizard management.

Jordan didn't get mad at cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction, all thanks to his superb physical fitness.

Even worse, Jordan is no longer the omnipotent "god" in the hearts of fans. It was discovered that Jordan, who had always been deified, turned out to be tired all the time, completely not in line with psychological expectations. Many fans do not even bother to vote for Jordan in the All-Star Game. He can still be a starter in the East this year, and can only be replaced in the West.

The goal of the Wizards in the new season is to impact the playoffs. With the exception of Jordan and Hamilton, the Wizards have no talent to play. Their sixth man this season turned out to be Tyrone Lu, which shows the potential of this team.

Tyrone Lu's performance was as expected, and the Wizards felt that the basic salary had been picked up. He averaged 20.5 minutes and averaged 8 points and 3.5 assists.

But the Wizards' top pick Kwame Brown was too disappointing, averaging only 15 minutes and averaging 5 points and 3.5 rebounds. He is just a defensive blue collar, often scolded by Jordan.

After the game started, Guo Xu took the bench, Fisher took the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball. The biggest thing is the match between Jordan and Kobe.

The defense of the two is very active, constantly entangled, but the strength of the teammates of the two sides is too large, this is not destined to be a fight.

Kobe Bryant can't break and can pass the ball ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Jordan can't break through, there are too few options to pass the ball.

O'Neal quickly became the protagonist on the field, singled out Jahidi White to score consecutively.

Jahidi is a wonderful player with a height of 206cm and a weight of 132kg. He can resist O'Neal, but his height can't stop O'Neal from turning around and shooting.

In the first quarter, the Lakers led by 10 points. In the second quarter, Guo Xu took the bench. A wave of 13-2 increased the score, and Tyrone Lu was defended to death by him. Offensive Guo Xu played pick-and-roll, leaving Tyrone Lu and Haywood helpless.

Without any suspense, the Lakers stepped on Jordan and set a new historical record-34 consecutive victories!

Kobe played a triple-double, 20 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists; O'Neill and Guo Xu scored 20+.

The Lakers have broken the league's record in these two seasons. Their playoff record is more unlikely to be broken, and at most they will tie because they have won.

After the game, the news media unanimously recognized that the Lakers have the strongest three giants in the history of NBA and are the strongest team in history.
