Chapter 519 Repairing the Body and Trading

After finishing this back-to-back game, the Lakers can finally get a day's rest. They will go to Salt Lake City on the 17th to challenge the Jazz. This month's schedule is actually very good for the Lakers. Friendly, they will play a total of [-] games in December. Fortunately, their opponents are not too strong. They are basically the teams in the lottery zone last season, but there are also some teams with the Cavaliers in the middle. Game against the Clippers.

On this rest day, Ye Xuan was planning to applaud for love with Shen Wei, but he didn't expect that just after a few rounds of fighting, Ye Xuan felt a pain in his lower back, which also scared Ye Xuan One jump, after all, as an athlete, the most fearful thing is getting injured, so I changed my posture and let Shen Wei move by herself, while Ye Xuan instantly entered the system, and after asking, I found out that I had less than ten games. , due to the repeated use of difficult movements such as Rose's non-deceleration and changing direction, the damage to the body is relatively serious. The current waist pain is caused by the strain of the waist muscles, which is also due to the number of dry pull shots caused by more.

So Ye Xuan also had to spend some survival time to repair his body. Fortunately, Ye Xuan still had a lot of 'deposits' before, so it didn't directly cause him to be reimbursed for the season like the last serious injury.After spending 700 days of survival time to repair all his physical injuries, Ye Xuan couldn't help feeling that he was still a little too careless in dealing with injuries. If he kept doing this, no amount of survival time would be enough It seems that I still need to find a way to solve this problem.

The time soon came to December [-]th, and the Lakers set off for Salt Lake City, where they will challenge the Utah Jazz.In the last match, the Lakers easily defeated their opponents, which made everyone look down on the Jazz. However, the performance of the Jazz later surprised everyone. First of all, he entered the highly competitive Western Conference. In the playoffs, it is now temporarily ranked eighth in the Western Conference, and even has a better record than the Trail Blazers in terms of ranking.

You must know that the Trail Blazers have two guns in the backcourt, and they have caused a lot of trouble for the Warriors and other teams in the playoffs. This month's record is surprisingly poor, so now they are still working hard for their playoff spots.

The strength shown by the Jazz this season is quite good, but there is an obvious problem that they will play relatively well when the team feels good, but when the feel is slightly unsatisfactory, It will become very passive, unlike other teams that can change the situation on the field by adjusting tactics when they feel bad.

The game started soon, Gobert beat Gasol to give the ball to Evans, Evans wanted to break through directly with the ball, but Ye Xuan's defensive skills were not good enough, so he immediately rushed over and blocked the ball. In Evans' path, Evans was not greedy for credit, and immediately passed the ball to Heywood. Heywood caught the ball and pulled it up directly outside the three-point line to make a three-pointer.

It has to be said that even when the distribution of ball rights is not particularly satisfactory, Heywood still uses his personal ability to gradually show his strength. His status in the team is also getting higher and higher. Naturally, the tide has risen, and this is actually a disguised improvement for the Jazz.

Looking back, the Lakers immediately wanted to switch from the outside. After Gasol mentioned that the high position had a pick-and-roll with Ye Xuan, he immediately cut in, and Ye Xuan didn't stop, still running like an inside. Gobert on the inside was attracted by Ye Xuan's ball-holding offense, but Ye Xuan suddenly threw the ball high and sent the ball directly to the basket. The hand pressed the ball into the basket.

In the next few rounds, the Lakers did not allow the Jazz to find that kind of particularly good open shooting opportunities, and Haywood could not play his due strength under the close defense of Solomon Hill. The strength gap between them was immediately reflected. Although the offensive efficiency of the Lakers has declined under the defense of the Jazz, the Lakers can always have a strong scoring point to stand up and help the team break the predicament. Whether it's Ye Xuan or Wade, in short, the Lakers are able to let another player stand up when other players feel bad, or when the opponent's defense focuses on one of them.

Although Wade is almost 34 years old, his scoring ability is still so sharp. In fact, if Wade hadn't chosen to remove his meniscus, then his combat effectiveness is estimated to be even more terrifying, and even if it is cut Having lost his meniscus, he now has three championships in hand, and one finals MVP, and this season his team still has a chance to win the championship. This kind of personal honor is in the current league. , There should be no second person except LeBron James. After all, the last two people with the same achievement, one is Duncan and the other is Kobe. Both of them chose to retire last season.Parker of the Spurs also has three championships and a finals MVP, but after all, he has never played in the finals as the absolute core of the team, so Parker is not a top superstar.

The result is self-evident. The Lakers had already established an advantage of more than 10 points shortly after the start of the second quarter. This advantage continued to be expanded in the third quarter. At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers The team has unknowingly led by 20 points, so the fourth quarter has become garbage time.

At the end of the game, the Lakers easily defeated their opponents and quietly increased their winning streak to 8 games.At this time, the Lakers have quietly distanced themselves from the other 29 teams in the league. With a record of 20 wins and 3 losses, they are proud of the league, and they have become the first echelon of the league alone.The second echelon is the Cavaliers, Warriors and Pelicans.

And this season the West is also in chaos. There are 11 teams fighting for the playoffs. Only the Suns, Timberwolves, Kings and Mavericks have no aggressive intentions. They have already begun to rebuild. Of course, the Mavericks didn't really want to start rebuilding. The key is that Barnes, who was signed at a high price this summer, was not strong enough, and the subsequent signing failed.

The eastern part is a bit worse, starting from Wannian's rebuilding team, the 76ers, to the tragic Nets, and then the Magic, Knicks and Hornets have all started rebuilding. Among them, the Hornets are the most tragic. This season made it to the playoffs for the first time, but was rubbed on the ground by the Cavaliers. In order to keep Batum, he had to let go of the basic salary and work for a year to help the Hornets reach the playoffs. Jeremy Lin, the hero of the team, also let go of Al Jefferson, who was also the hero of the team's playoffs. As a result, the team's record has plummeted since the start of this season. The Nets are terrible, but they are only ranked No.76 in the Eastern Conference.

Just after the Lakers ended their game against the Jazz, another transaction occurred in the league. The initiator of the transaction was none other than Ye Xuan's old club, the Pacers.The owner of the Pacers couldn't stand the team's internal strife and the selfish desires of the team manager, so he fired Pritchard directly and forcefully. At the same time, he also sent JR Smith and Jeff - Teague got traded away.

The teams involved in the trade were the Jazz, which had just finished playing against the Lakers, and the Brooklyn Nets, which were planning to rebuild.First, the Pacers sent Jeff Teague to the Jazz, then sent JR-Smith to the Nets, and the Jazz added Tyreke Evans to the deal, sending Evans to the The Nets then sent Rodney Hood to the Pacers.As for the Nets, they sent Randy Foye and Bojan Bogdanovic, Randy Foye was sent to the Jazz, and Bojan Bogdanovic was Came to the Pacers.

After this deal was concluded, the initiator of the Pacers' internal conflicts was finally cleaned up, and the starting lineup with the newly traded Hood at the shooting guard position was much more comfortable to play, and at the same time solved the starting lineup. The choice of point guard, Rose was righted, and this former regular season MVP had a lot of fun with the Pacers.

Of course, this transaction is not a loss for the other two teams. First of all, the Jazz will face a large-scale contract renewal problem next season. Of course, Hood’s performance is naturally needless to say. A big contract, and although Evans has played well since he came to the Jazz, he often pays more attention to his offense with the ball rather than organizing the team's offense, which makes Hood's data drop. , At the same time, he also restricted the development of Heywood. After Teague was traded, at least Teague's passing awareness is better, which is still a good thing for the Jazz.

As for the Nets, they are simply helping. They have no hope of rebuilding the team. Now they have traded JR-Smith in order to continue to trade. Of course, during the two months of trade protection, they can just Help JR brush up a beautiful data.As for Evans, he was traded to serve as a shooting guard. Although Evans has always been a point guard since he entered the league, his style of play is more inclined to a shooting guard. It just so happens that Jeremy Lin is a traditional guard. The point guard should be able to cooperate better with Evans. Anyway, they don't have the first-round picks in the past few years, so it doesn't matter whether the team's record can be improved after the transaction. what effect.Of course, in order to be able to pull the Nets into this transaction, the Pacers had to give one of their second-round picks this year to the Nets.

In addition to the Pacers deal, the Dallas Mavericks and the 76ers also made a deal. The Mavericks sent Justin Anderson, Andrew Bogut and a first-round pick to get Nerlens Noel from the 76ers. .In fact, Nerlens Noel has always been the object that the Cavaliers are pursuing, especially now that their main insider Tristan Thompson is getting worse after hooking up with the eldest sister of the Kardashian family, Kohler Kardashian, So now they urgently need a player who can help the team defend in the interior, and Noll is such an excellent choice, but in the end they did not expect the 76ers to trade him to the Mavericks. I have to say that the Cavaliers are also worthless. The 76ers are the bargaining chip for the transaction, and it is no wonder the 76ers.

These transactions are actually small fights, but the Pacers' sudden various major personnel adjustments also let everyone see how much the team owner values ​​the team.In fact, the Lakers are also looking for some trading possibilities. First of all, the Lakers now want to use their second-round picks to trade for one or two water fountain guards, or look at finding one or two in the free market. Soy sauce players.

However, the success rate of seeking a deal at this point is still relatively low after all, and the bargaining chips that the Lakers can offer are not very attractive, so in the end, although the Lakers are about to make a move, they still haven't found a deal.The time soon came to December [-]th. The Lakers back in Los Angeles ushered in the Rockets. The Rockets have also made everyone's eyes shine this season. He is currently ranked in the Clippers, Grizzlies and other strong teams. The front of the team ranks fifth in the Western Conference, which has something to do with Harden's sudden outbreak.

This season Harden's data has also grown explosively. Last season, Harden averaged 29 points, 7.5 assists and 5.7 rebounds per game. No, let Curry be elected unanimously, and this season, Harden has exploded. Since the beginning of the season, he has sent a total of 5+ triple-doubles in 30 games. Now the average data is almost the same as that of Westbrook, 29.5 With 11.3 assists and 8.6 rebounds, the statistics are too gorgeous. Of course, this is also related to his breakup with Khloe Kardashian. If there was no Kardashian last season, it is estimated that Harden and Warcraft can It may be possible to go further in the playoffs, at least it will not allow opponents to easily eliminate themselves.
