After the NCAA finals, the 1984-85 NBA regular season also entered the final stage.

Although the Lakers have now secured the first place in the West, the coaching staff and management have decided to play in the full roster for the last 10 games.

One is to train for the upcoming playoffs, and the other is to hit the best record in history.

Buss Sr. has injected a shot in the arm to the players on the team, as long as the Lakers have the best regular season record this season, each starter will be awarded $500,000, each substitute will be awarded $200,000, and the coaching staff will be awarded $100,000.

Although the league does not have any special rewards for the regular season championship, the old Buss, who has deep pockets, is obviously for the sake of face and wants the Lakers players to compete for breath.

In the penultimate game, the Lakers host the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Lakers firmly dominated the score and did not let the opponent lead by 1 second, Zhou Chen bombed 34 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists, the Magic cut 18 points and 15 assists, and Abdul-Jabbar contributed 30 points and 20 rebounds.

The Lakers beat the Cavaliers 140-99, extending their winning streak! The season record is 61-12!

In the penultimate game of the regular season, the Lakers took on the Houston Rockets on the road.

The Rockets, with the twin towers of Olajuwon and Sampson, are firmly in second place in the West so far this season, behind the Lakers.

In the first three meetings of the season, the Lakers all had the last laugh.

But this game the Rockets still played extra seriously and tenaciously.

The two teams are likely to be the two teams with the last laugh in the West this season, so the Rockets are very excited to play the Lakers.

In the first half, Olajuwon and Sampson teamed up to cause a lot of trouble for Lakers veteran Abdul-Jabbar, continuously attacking the inside to cut points and making Abdul-Jabbar plagued by fouls.

The Rockets had a nearly 30-point advantage at halftime.

After the start of the second half, the situation on the court changed dramatically, and the Lakers followed the example of the meeting at the beginning of the season, with Zhou Chen and Magic repeating their old tricks and making cameo appearances inside, wanting to limit Olajuwon's play.

But this time the Rockets are obviously prepared, and the whole season of Big Dream has improved very obviously and his steps are more flexible.

The Lakers' small lineup did not have an advantage on the inside.

In the second half of the third quarter, the Lakers' group of outside shooters suddenly broke out, and veteran "Silk" Wilkes continued to shoot away from the outside shot!

Zhou Chen and Kubo's three-point shots also fell like rain and poured down!

At the same time, under the strong outer blockade of the two, the group of shooters of the rocket team suddenly went silent en masse!

Zhou Chen only hit 2 three-pointers in the first half, and suddenly exploded in the second half, hitting 9 of 12 three-pointers!

The 11 three-pointers are also the highest single-game record in the league since the introduction of the three-point line!

With a record three-point feast, Zhou Chen led the Lakers to a big comeback in the second half, and finally defeated the Rockets 120-119, continuing his winning streak!

After this game, the Lakers' regular season record reached 63-12!

After winning against the Rockets, the Lakers returned to their home court and beat the Golden State Warriors, Seattle Supersonics and Phoenix Suns in quick succession to increase their winning count to 66!

So far, the Lakers have also locked up this season's regular season championship in advance!

But the Lakers didn't stop!

In the subsequent trip to the East, the Lakers defeated the Indiana Pacers, New Jersey Nets and Washington Bullets!

While winning 23 straight games, this season's record has reached 69 wins and 12 losses!

The number of wins has equalled the all-time best!

With one more win, the Lakers will make a record and become the first team in history to achieve 70 wins.

In the final game of the regular season, they will face the Detroit Pistons at home!

At the beginning of the season, the Lakers visited Detroit, and the intensity of that game is still the most conflicted game of the season.

It was precisely because of that game that Zhou Chen suffered the first suspension of his career, and the Pistons' main center Ranbir was directly suspended until the end of the regular season.

The Lakers, who returned to their home court, were not treated as unfairly as in the last game.

But the game was still tough.

Although Ranbir was suspended, the pistons led by Isaiah Thomas still adopted "inhuman" defensive tactics against Zhou Chen.

At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, Zhou Chen encountered the shameless three-man bag of the Pistons, as long as he caught the ball, the outside three immediately surrounded it, not giving Zhou Chen space to shoot at all.

In the first meeting at the beginning of the season, "Smiling Assassin" Thomas was brutally humiliated by Zhou Chen's crotch, as can be seen from the All-Star Game, he has always remembered his hatred and wants to find Zhou Chen to settle the score.

In this game, as the leader of the Pistons, he also treated Zhou Chen's defense to the extreme, and even did not hesitate to use fouls to stop Zhou Chen's attack.

I'd rather let Zhou Chen stand at the free throw line than let him score a sports goal.

In this way, the Pistons also paid the price for their extreme defensive methods, and the other three big players of the Lakers, Abdul-Jabbar, Worthy and Magic, blossomed on three fronts, combining inside and out, helping the Lakers establish an early lead.

Zhou Chen was defended by the opponent in the first half of the game to only 3 shots, none of them hit, and only 6 points by free throws.

After the start of the second half, without the interior gate of Lambir, the Lakers' bombardment quickly broke through the Pistons' interior line!

Just halfway through the third quarter, the Lakers had already scored 90 points, 28 points ahead of the Pistons.

Faced with a huge point difference, Pistons head coach Chuck Daly still did not give up, and even with substitutes to play, there seemed to be a consensus within their team.

Even if death can't let Zhou Chen score.

Their idea is simple, that is, they would rather let the rest of the Lakers beat them than let Zhou Chen beat them.

After the start of the fourth quarter, Zhou Chen took advantage of his unpreparedness and hit a long-range three-pointer, scoring the first sports goal of the game, and the difference between the two teams widened to more than 30 points.

Later, Pat Riley also replaced all five starters, including Zhou Chen.

The Pistons immediately gave up resistance and surrendered.

The Lakers eventually got their final win of the season and ended with a record 70-12 record.

Zhou Chen was more miserable, only scoring 9 points and 6 assists in the whole game, and did not score a double-double for the first time since entering the NBA.

After today's battle, Zhou Chen and the Liang Zi of the Bad Boy Legion were completely concluded.

When questioned by reporters after the game, Zhou Chen said calmly: "As long as the team wins, they can target me as much as they want." In addition, what I want to say to the Pistons coaches Daly and Thomas is..."

Then, Zhou Chen compared a middle finger to the camera, his expression was very arrogant.

After the game, Pistons head coach Chuck Daly still said in front of reporters: "In fact, we beat Zhou Chen, but we didn't win against the Lakers, if Zhou Chen was in another team, today's result may be different."

This defensive method of playing against Zhou Chen was later called "Zhou Chen's Law" by other teams in the league.
