Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

Chapter 239 A low-key trip to Los Angeles

On Christmas Eve, the ten participating teams never dreamed that the eleventh team would steal the limelight.

The New York Knicks have suddenly become the most discussed team right now.

Not only in the United States, but also in distant Eurasia, the news that the Knicks temporarily reached the top was mentioned on the evening sports news.

Because as a veteran team that existed during the founding of the NBA, the New York Knicks only won the regular season championship with 60 wins in 1970, when they won their first championship.

In the 38 years since then, no matter which critical node they were at, no matter which famous and not famous stars the team had, the New York Knicks have never reached this position.

So this Christmas Eve, the New York Knicks topped the league in record for the first time in 38 years.

Oh, it's only temporary though.

But it's surprising enough.

Because last season they were still a weak team in the league with only 23 wins. They were bullied by everyone, and no one would associate the Knicks with the league's first regular season record.

On the contrary, the reverse super god has him every year...

So you can understand that, albeit temporarily, Knicks fans are still in a feverish mood.

"Wow, as a Knicks fan for so many years, I didn't expect to see this day again." As the most famous Knicks fan, Spike Lee was naturally the first to post on Instagram, and the accompanying picture was on the NBA official website

The latest Eastern Conference rankings.

Ewing also sent a message to @Zuo Li, saying: "This is the best Christmas gift, isn't it."

Even Scarlett Johansson, a famous New York movie star, showed off her new Knicks jersey online. Although she didn't say anything, the meaning was self-evident.

Other fans also followed suit, and all kinds of sighs instantly flooded the entire Internet on this Christmas Eve.

Generally speaking, excited Knicks fans just shout "Ye Qingjie" in the street. Of course, there are also some shouting "Ye Qinghui", and then a group of netizens will sigh, how old I am and how trendy he is.

I also play online.

As another protagonist who temporarily brought the Knicks to the top, the mood of the Cleveland Cavaliers players was not so wonderful. Especially in the post-game press conference, they were not only asked why they were defeated by the Rockets, but also why they were defeated by the Rockets.

Asked about his thoughts on being overtaken by the Knicks.

This is simply double torture!

As the absolute core of the Cavaliers, little emperor James naturally received the most greetings. There was no way, but tonight, although he scored 25 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, he made 10 of 25 shots and 0 of 3 from the three-point line.

The points were really unsatisfactory, not to mention that it was his foul at the last moment that cost the Cavaliers the chance to tie.

It is said that the Rockets led by Dayao are not only a hurdle that Warcraft cannot overcome, but they are also good against LeBron's team. In my memory, Dayao played against James 11 times in his career, and Dayao took the absolute initiative with 8 wins and 3 losses.

James played 37.8 minutes per game, took 20.8 shots per game, and only made 8.1 hits. Although he was able to score 22.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.2 steals, and 0.5 blocks, his shooting percentage was only 38.9%.

.

It has to be said that during Dayao's time in the NBA, James' style of play was very restrained by Dayao. Of course, it is also related to the Rockets' configuration. Artest and Battier's third position, plus Dayao inside, James

It's really hard to play.

But the media didn't care about this, so James was annoyed by the question and said directly: "It's just a game, we will win it back. Our goal this season is still the championship. I believe we will not lose to anyone in the regular season."

The team’s.”

The implication is that they are competing for the regular season championship, and the Knicks are not even their opponents!

The news is out!

The reporter left with satisfaction, and then the question was returned to the Knicks. As soon as Zuo Li came out of the arena, he was blocked by reporters. Their original intention was to let Zuo Li know what James said, and then expect Zuo Li to know what James said.

I can also fight back, but it's a pity...

Zuo Li said directly: "James is right. Our success in reaching the top this time is mostly due to luck, and it is only in the middle of the season, so it doesn't count. I hope everyone will not be blinded by temporary success and stay steady."

Our goal this season is still to make the playoffs!”

"But, LeBron said you are no match?" The reporter refused to give up and provoked.

"Indeed, the Cavaliers are very strong. They are the most favorable contenders for the championship, and our only opponent is ourselves." Zuo Li replied seriously.

How could Zuo Li not know what the reporter was thinking, but unfortunately, in the locker room, the Knicks team had reached a consensus.

An hour ago, after the Knicks players briefly celebrated in the locker room, D'Antoni was the first to express the message that we need to calm down.

Zuo Li also stated the pros and cons. He knew very well how magical this season was, and the Knicks' success in reaching the top took advantage of the schedule. There would be many tough battles in the future, and the pressure of being No. 1 would be detrimental to the Knicks. The Knicks still have

There is no ability to maintain the first place in a season.

In the end, everyone reached an agreement that this season they will not continue to pursue the regular season or even the first place in the Eastern Conference. It is enough to stabilize the top four.

So the reporter became decadent...

However, after the news came out, Zuo Li's modesty and calmness were unanimously recognized by people.

These days, there are not many people who are so humble...

James: "???"

Can you lie down twice?

James exploded and decided to go crazy in the Christmas game!

On Zuo Li's side, he had just said goodbye to his teammates when he received a text message from Dolan. Although D'Antoni, on behalf of the coaching staff and the team, did not need to celebrate this temporary summit, Dolan couldn't help it!

This was the first time in so many years that he was praised by fans. Looking at his social account, Dolan laughed so hard that he even smoked his cigar backwards, so he sent a text message to Zuo Li, expressing congratulations and asking if Zuo Li had any thoughts.

Wanted Christmas gift.

“Just say whatever you want!”

Zuo Li didn't take it seriously. Dolan was indeed that kind of character. When he was happy, he was very generous and looked like a playboy. But Zuo Li didn't lack anything, and he was also in a hurry, so he casually replied: "I

I don’t need anything, and I really want to give it as a gift. How about a Lamborghini?”

Then he ignored it because he had to fly directly to Los Angeles tonight!

Jogging all the way home, I tidied up briefly and picked up the dusty basketball from the corner of the apartment. Zuo immediately rushed to New York University without stopping, where he picked up Omei and drove directly to New York University in his Q7.

Airport.

At one o'clock in the morning, the two got on a plane flying to Los Angeles...

On the morning of December 24, at 6 o'clock in the morning, Los Angeles had just welcomed the first ray of sunshine, and the newsstands on the roadside were also the first businesses to regain their vitality.

Uncle Tim has been selling newspapers in front of Staples for 22 years. Every morning at 6 o'clock, he will sit in front of the newspaper, drinking a cup of loose coffee for US$2, welcoming the first ray of sunshine in the morning, and looking at the streets.

People come and go, but it doesn't matter how many copies he sells. As long as he stays with Staples, he never worries about not selling the newspaper.

But today, the first guest seems to have arrived extra early...
