Vol 2 Chapter 791 Rare 2-game losing streak

[NBA opening draw to twilight O’Neal] []

Why is it so hard for an NBA team to win a three-peat?

It is because there are too many contingency factors in the sport of basketball.

It’s also possible that the stronger team on paper could lose a night for all sorts of outlandish reasons.

For example, feel bad!

The loss in this game was not because the Trail Blazers underestimated the enemy or were too tired. Sometimes the feel of the game would fall into a low ebb for no apparent reason.

If just looking at the lineup on paper can tell the difference, then the Lakers management team formed the F4 Galaxy battleship twice to win the championship.

Not to mention the Lakers F4, it was the Warriors’ Big Five that Cousins ​​joined for 5.3 million a year, and the starting lineup was all active All-Stars.

At that time, many people were jokingly saying that it would be better to award this season’s championship trophy to the Warriors in advance.

As a result, who could have predicted that wave after wave of injuries directly destroyed this unprecedented terrifying Big Five combination in history.

Of course, this contingency is precisely one of the charms of competitive sports. Without this contingency, a basketball game would not be dramatic. Without a dramatic game, there would not be so many unknowns.

If you want to win three straight victories and establish a dynasty, in addition to being strong enough, you must also have the ability to minimize the probability of accidental events.

But the bulls that were as strong as the 1990s also had the experience of being unexpectedly upset.

As strong as the **** of basketball, Michael Jordan, occasionally there will be a few games where he feels cold and performs poorly.

Clearly, the Blazers were unlucky during this time.

To be precise, since Jokic retired unexpectedly in the game against the 75ers, they have been very unlucky in the following games.

First, the Wizards were almost overturned, and then the Eagles were injured and a general was injured. These all paved the way for the Lakers to hate tonight.

Today, Wang Zelin created a lot of outside shots for his teammates in the interior, but most of them were missed.

Seeing this situation, the new Lakers coach Luke Walton simply waved his hand and signaled everyone to shrink the defense line and encircle Wang Zelin under the basket!

That’s right, the Lakers have changed coaches.

Previously, it was rumored that the Lakers management had been pursuing Zen Master, hoping that the latter would be the Lakers coach again.

But the Zen master is currently serving as the president of the Knicks. There is no reason to leave a good president and run back to stir up the troubled waters of the Lakers management.

Who doesn’t know how chaotic the Bass family is now after the death of the old Bass.

In desperation, the Lakers management had to settle for the next best thing and chose the young Luke Walton.

Fortunately, Walton spent most of his career playing for the Lakers, and he was also one of the Lakers’ later three-time finalists and two consecutive championship heroes.

There is no doubt that his mother has pure purple and gold blood flowing in his body, which is enough to make the proud Angel City fans give him a high look.

Taking into account many aspects, Walton has become the most favorite candidate for the Lakers management.

Then, on the first day of the new year, that is, on January 1, he officially signed a five-year, 20 million-meter contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, becoming the 26th head coach in the history of the Lakers, and after the Lakers moved to Los Angeles. 22nd head coach.

The game against the Blazers was the first big problem that Walton encountered in his coaching career. For this reason, he prepared a week in advance, thinking about how to play this battle beautifully.

The bottom line in his heart is that it is best to win the game. If he cannot win, he will strive to have a 55-50 situation with the Blazers on the court, at least to show the style of the Purple and Gold Army.

Then, what Walton never expected was that Goddess of Luck took care of herself this night. Her basket seemed to be covered tonight. It is a serious Mamba disciple.

“…”

The stare from the former boss.

Heck, let’s get down to business.

Since the Blazers are out of sight today, block the rim and seal their only way to score.

As a result, there was a magical scene on the court where Wang Zelin used the sky hook familiar to Lakers fans to get hard points when he often had to face three or even four Lakers blocks after asking for the ball in the low post.

Although Wang Zelin is strong, he still does not exceed the limits of human beings.

In the face of so many people double-teamed, he also struggled to score consistently.

Fighting to the end, he even felt his body was exhausted after a long absence.

This is the first time this has happened after winning Zhang 20,000.

In the end, the Lakers gave the Trail Blazers their second loss of the season in the Rose Garden.

Tonight, the Trail Blazers’ three-point shooting rate was only 20%. On the other hand, the Lakers scored in double figures with a total of 6 people tonight. The team’s shooting rate was as high as 55.2%, and the three-point shooting rate was an extremely outrageous 50%!

The whole team made 50% of the three-point shooting rate, even if it is placed on the Warriors, the first three-point team in active service, it is quite rare.

The electronic buzzer sounded, and Wang Zelin was on his waist, gasping for breath.

Damn, I haven’t felt like a dog for a long time.

The last time I felt this way, I had to go back to the last time.

After standing for a while, I felt that my breathing became more stable. When Wang Zelin was about to leave the stage, a familiar voice sounded behind him.

Come on, take a step slower, the old guy is probably going to pretend again.

Wang Zelin complained frantically in his heart, but his body turned around honestly.

At first glance, unsurprisingly, it was the Lakers’ No. 24 Kobe Bryant.

At this time, the Black Mamba was full of smiles, a little like Wang Zelin’s memory changed to “Aike” after the Achilles tendon ruptured.

“Wang, it seems that you are really unlucky today!”

“Hmph, it seems that someone is very self-aware.”

“…”

Kobe did not refute Wang Zelin’s words, because he knew very well that there was indeed a certain strength gap between the two teams.

But when he thought that he had won a rare win against this stinky boy in front of him, his heart suddenly became excited.

Just like the former God Qiao, after getting older, the current Black Mamba likes this kind of behavior of teasing the younger generation after winning too much.

Such behavior may be a bit naive for young people like Wang Zelin, but it is just right for the Black Mamba at the end of his career.

Otherwise, there would be no such thing as an “old child”.

The two chatted a few more times, and after agreeing with Kobe to be a guest at home tonight, Wang Zelin turned his head and walked into the player tunnel.

…

“Wang, the Blazers’ 15-game winning streak was ended. You must be very depressed.”

After the game, the reporters at the press conference were not too provocative, they were asking some regular questions.

After all, the Blazers are so strong this season that they have no friends. Everyone has long been numb to their long winning streak, but losing the game today has become a new thing.

“I have to say, it’s a pity that we didn’t hold the home victory. But I believe that my teammates and I will recover soon, and we are ready for every game that follows.”

When Wang Zelin answered the question, he was also very calm.

To put it bluntly, this is just a loss of a regular season. As a real superstar, you can’t jump because of a loss.

After the brief press conference, Wang Zelin went home to rest.

Then, to his surprise, this wasn’t the end of the Blazers’ suffering.

The next day, in back-to-back home games against the Kings, the Trail Blazers lost again at the Rose Garden!

This also means that the Kings have become the first team to double-kill the Blazers this season.

When the news spread, there was a big question mark on everyone’s face, what was the international joke.
