Chapter 62 Legendary Event! 2016 Chivalrous Christmas Battle!
On December 12th, Zheng Long took Lin Bao to the ball held by Jack Nicholson to fulfill the contract.

This is a private banquet and also a birthday party to celebrate Nicholson's new girlfriend.

The old man is still young, even though he is nearly eighty years old, his girlfriend is a young model, and Zheng Long doesn't want to make any comments on other people's private lives.

Some friends of Nicholson and his girlfriend came to the ball, all of them are figures in the American film and television industry.

Zheng Long, an NBA star, seemed a bit abrupt.

But Nicholson not only solemnly introduced Zheng Long to everyone, but also teased that Zheng Long wants to enter the film and television industry. If you have any resources, you can recommend them.

Zheng Long could feel that the old man really liked him very much.

"As a diehard Lakers fan, after Kobe retired, I thought I would never have the chance to see the Lakers rise again. You know, I'm old enough to thank you for giving me this opportunity."

Nicholson's words couldn't help moving Zheng Long.

Made a promise to the old man.

"I'll let you see the Lakers win a championship this season."

"Hahahaha, then I will make a personal biographical film for you, maybe you can even compete for an Oscar."

Nicholson obviously didn't believe it, but the promise made the old man very happy.

After the ball was over, Zheng Long sent Lin Bao back to the apartment downstairs. Today, Lin Bao is wearing a red dress, glamorous and moving.

When Zheng Long turned to leave, he was pulled back.

Perhaps because of drinking some sparkling wine at the ball, Lin Bao's pretty face was flushed.

The girl's voice trembled a little.

"Aren't you taking me home?"

Zheng Long touched his nose, "I've already arrived downstairs at your house."

Lin Bao hammered Zheng Long's chest.

"Send me up, will you?"

"it is good."

A wonderful evening.

Before the arrival of the Christmas game, the Lakers did not encounter too many opponents worth mentioning. In a total of 6 games, they achieved 4 wins and 2 losses.

The two games lost were because Walton rested Butler and Jokic, and Zheng Long only played 10 minutes in these two games.

Walton is honing the bench led by Ingram.

Now that the main players are almost running in, Jokic and Butler were originally jack-of-all-trades players.

Can play with or without the ball.

This is also the reason why Zheng Long was able to lead the Lakers to win the Warriors. These two helpers who were hand-picked by themselves are growing rapidly visible to the naked eye.

Especially Jokic.

After all, he is a character who can grow into two consecutive MVPs in a few years. His golf quotient is extremely high. In Los Angeles, the higher exposure and attention have allowed him to achieve the growth of the previous season in the Nuggets in a short period of time.

And with the arrival of Christmas, the biggest holiday in the United States, the Christmas War is coming as scheduled.

Since the 40s, the NBA has had a tradition of hosting heavyweight games on Christmas.

Although the Lakers performed poorly last season, this year's schedule still arranges the Lakers against the Clippers.

This is the schedule set in October.

It just so happens that the Lakers are performing like the sun, and they have completed the bloodbath in the first two games against the Clippers.

Isn't this a coincidence?
The topic is still full!
But this year's game between the Lakers and the Clippers is still only ranked second, or it is far behind by the Warriors vs. Cavaliers game.

The Christmas game on December 2016, 12 is definitely one of the greatest Christmas games in NBA history, perhaps, none of them.

This game is full of pre-match highlights, star matchups, and drama at the last moment.

Even though Zheng Long was reborn, many years had passed since the Christmas battle, but he still remembered many details of it.

If it wasn't for Zheng Long to take the Lakers to play the Clippers himself, Zheng Long even wanted to watch the game live by himself!

The Warriors and Cavaliers have won championships in the past two seasons.

The Cavaliers have just completed an epic 1-3 reversal in the finals in a few months.

This year, with the Lakers' performance so strong, they still failed to enter the top three in the odds list for winning the championship.

The top two are still Warriors and Cavaliers.

This Christmas game is also the first time the Cavaliers have played against the Warriors with Durant.

When Cosmos Yong is officially formed, I believe that all fans will have an idea while they are desperate.

this year.

Can James still lead the Cavaliers to defeat the Warriors with Durant?
Fortunately, the games of the Christmas War were not played at the same time.

The game comes hours before the Lakers' game against the Clippers.

when the game is about to start.

Zheng Long came to the lounge of the Staples Arena and turned on the live broadcast of the game.

After a while, other Lakers players also came in and watched with Zheng Long.

Not to mention that people like Zheng Long who were reborn and knew the result were curious and wanted to watch it again.

Other Lakers players are even more curious.

Nowadays.

Will it win?

Butler even has characteristics in a certain aspect, a bit like Michael, and said to everyone: "I bet on the Warriors, and the Warriors will definitely win. Who wants to bet with me? One hundred dollars!"

There was a moment of silence in the living room.

It seems that he is very contemptuous of Butler's bet.

You have taken the greatest possibility yourself, who will bet with you?What's the difference between this and throwing a hundred dollars into the water.

"For $1000, I bet that not only will the Cavaliers win in the end, but it will also be a lore!"

No one bet with Butler, Zheng Long made the money himself, anyway, Butler is rich!
$1000?Cavaliers win, or lore? !
Rao is the old gambler Butler, who was also stunned by Zheng Long.

Because in his own impression, Zheng Long never does anything he is not sure about.

but.

Butler's inner common sense judgment is fighting fiercely again.

Jokic was eating melons and watching the show.

"You won't be cowardly, Jimmy."

This sentence really stimulated Butler.

Butler glared at Jokic, then extended his hand to Zheng Long, "I bet you, but $1000 is a bit low, $10000!"

Zheng Long:.
These days, there are really people rushing to send money to themselves.

In the United States, $[-] can already buy a nice small scooter.

Definitely a huge sum of money.

Zheng Long gave Butler a high-five in return, and said: "[-] dollars, sprinkle water, if you lose, I will treat you to a meal."

Butler didn't expect Zheng Longzhen to agree. Originally, he just wanted to propose this $[-] dollar so that he could win this "momentum" contest.

At the first moment, Butler's mind was full of Zheng Long, did he want to show his favor to him with $[-]?
He could have directly spent [-] dollars to treat himself to dinner, but he still wanted to give the money to himself through an open bet.

I cried to death.

This boss is really good.

There was also a burst of cheers in the lounge.

Both Zheng Long and Butler showed sweet smiles.

This gamble between Zheng Long and Butler has filled the players' expectations for this game.

On the big screen, players from both sides have already appeared on the stage.

In this game, the Warriors sent Curry, Thompson, Durant, Green, and Pachulia.

On the Cavaliers side, there are Irving, DeAndre Liggins, James, Love and Tristan Thompson.

In the jump ball session, the Warriors won the ball and the basketball came to Curry.

As soon as the game started, the intensity was full.

This game is entrusted with a heavy responsibility. Liggins, who started the game, began to press Curry holding the ball directly from the backcourt.

Durant even pulled a screen for Curry.

Only then did Curry successfully hold the ball and come to the frontcourt.

After coming to the frontcourt, the Cavaliers also advocated pressing Curry. The double screens of Thompson and Pachulia failed to create suitable shooting opportunities for Curry.

Pachulia simply got into the paint area to use his height to hit Liggins, and Curry also lobbed the ball.

This ball!
Liggins successfully completed the interference, breaking the ball off Pachulia and bouncing off the baseline.

In the first round of offense, the Cavaliers destroyed the Warriors' offense.

The Cavaliers home fans cheered!
It's all about momentum!

In the Cavaliers' offensive round, the Warriors all returned to defense. After Irving served to Love, he received the return pass and took the ball to the frontcourt and gave it to James.

James used Love's pick-and-roll to successfully form Love's low-post singles Durant.

But Love has been unable to find the right time to make a shot, and Durant is very defensive.

Reluctantly, Love passed the ball to James on the outside, and James directly took the ball to the inside!
The Warriors directly shrunk their line of defense, and four people surrounded and double-teamed!
The basketball suddenly flew up!

It's Durant!

Xiaoshuai completed the steal!
Durant, who completed the steal, directly held the ball alone to promote a fast-break counterattack!

All in one train!

Facing Liggins, easily completed a layup and scored!

If it weren't for Liggins under the basket, Durant would probably contribute a dunk in the opening game!
Warriors 2-0 Cavaliers!

"Let me just say, Durant is simply a BUG! Not only can he single-handedly defend against a power forward like Love, but he can also complete such a single counterattack like a guard!"

"The Cavaliers are completely useless!"

This goal made Butler scream excitedly.

Jokic did not forget to remind his good brothers.

"Hey, have you forgotten that we just defeated the Warriors with Durant not long ago."

Butler spread his hands in embarrassment, and said, "You know, in my heart, we are the strongest. I'm just comparing knights and warriors."

Jokic is all over his face, your best expression.

The game continues.

The high-intensity defensive intensity caused both sides to make frequent mistakes and missed shots in the next 2 minutes.

Until James hits the basket, attracts the defense, and passes the ball to Love in the paint on the other side.

Love prepares for a dunk at the basket and completes a dunk!
But he was hit directly on the arm by a Warriors player, completing a tough foul.

The Cavaliers used two free throws to help the Cavaliers get the opening two points.

Warriors 2-2 Cavaliers!

"The defensive intensity is so high, I thought it was the last moment of the fourth quarter."

"It didn't look like a regular season at all. I thought I was watching the Finals."

"That's for sure. In a head-to-head contest, none of them want to lose."

As professional players, the Lakers generals couldn't help but comment.

Not long after, the fiery atmosphere continued to rise again!
Liggins made a layup under the basket, Green jumped up and raised his arms, Liggins fell down, and the referee's whistle blew.

Just when the home fans cheered.

Green walked back to the player's seat angrily, turned around and sprayed at the referee, waving his arms constantly.

The Warriors' bench players got up and grabbed Green.

The referee directly arranged a T for Green!

The opening three and a half minutes!

Green started to work straight away!

Cavaliers fans cheer loudly and boo!

The Warriors also quickly replaced Green with a young Rooney to keep Green calm.

This dramatic scene made the players in the locker room laugh.

The game continued, and the defensive intensity was still full. The head coaches of both sides also kept sending players in the first quarter, switching various lineups, and grasping this rare opportunity to play against the Cavaliers.

The score has been tightly biting.

In the last offensive round, Thompson successfully scored an inside attack with the cooperation of his teammates.

At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors 27-25 Cavaliers, the Warriors took a two-point lead.

Jokic couldn't help teasing Butler: "This score is so deadly, if there is a possibility of a lore at the last moment."

Butler was a little flustered in his heart. He glanced at Zheng Long and said calmly, "The Warriors haven't exerted their strength yet. This is only the first quarter. What's the rush?"

In the second quarter, the Cavaliers continued to guard against Curry.

This is their defensive strategy in the 16 Finals.

Locking Curry is to cut off the Warriors' engine.

However, today's Warriors not only have Thompson, but also Durant, Durant is not Barnes.

The defense attracted by Curry created many singles opportunities for Durant, and Durant hit frequently.

The point difference between the two sides once reached 11 points, breaking through the double-digit mark.

Came to 49-38!

Butler began to beam with joy, and said, "I feel like the Cavaliers are going to be overwhelmed. I feel like halftime is going to be spent."

When he said this, Butler glanced at Zheng Long again.

Zheng Long still didn't panic at all.

Soon, Butler couldn't laugh anymore, because the Cavaliers played a 1-12 wave 1 minute before the end of the second quarter!

Directly equalized the score! 50-50!

When the whistle sounded at the end of halftime, the Warriors only led by 55 points 52-3!

The halftime break was relatively long, and the Lakers players got up to go to the toilet and drink water.

Just now, everyone was almost staring at each other, unwilling to miss any details of the game.

Anyone who can play in the NBA loves basketball.

If you love basketball, how can you not like such a strong duel and high-intensity competition?

When the second half of the game started, the Lakers players who left the lounge sat back neatly in their original positions.

At the beginning of the second half, Love completed a tying three-pointer!
55-55
"Beautiful!"

"It's a tie! The Cavaliers are so tenacious!"

"Butler, why don't you smile?"

Then, Green held the ball at a 45-degree angle and directly covered Durant in a pick-and-roll. Xiaoshuai ignored the defense and scored a three-pointer!

Respond to the three-pointer!
58-55!

Butler: "Beautiful! Good job Durant!"

Other Lakers players: .
In the following time, Butler's cheers were heard frequently in the lounge. The Warriors kept trying to open the score in the third quarter, and Durant even scored a lot of fairy goals.

But the Cavaliers were extremely tenacious, whenever the Warriors wanted to further open the score.

The Cavaliers will tenaciously catch up.

Until the end of the third quarter.

The Warriors finally took a 7-point lead as they wished.

Warriors 87-80 Cavaliers!

After a short break, the moment of the decisive battle between the two sides in the fourth quarter arrived as scheduled.

In the first three quarters, both sides played extremely tough, and the main players of both sides hardly rested.

The same goes for the fourth quarter.

In the opening 2 minutes, the Cavaliers were eager to catch up with the score, but failed, and the Warriors only scored 2 points.

then.

Durant went straight to the inside with the ball, and after a disguised appearance, he faced Liggins with a layup and scored!
Beep----

Whistle!

Blocking fouls, and additional penalties! ! !
With Durant steadily hitting free throws.

Warriors 92-80 Cavaliers!

12 points lead!

Butler seemed to have seen the $[-] knife and waved to himself, "I love you Adu!"

Next, the Cavaliers failed to score, and Durant once again used the screen to hold the ball and hit the inside throw to score!
94-80! Leading by 14 points!
The Cavaliers are silent at home!
Even the TV commentary couldn't help shaking his head and sighing: "Durant brought the Warriors a lethal ability that was completely absent last season."

"In addition to Curry and Thompson, there is another unsolvable ball-handling single Durant!"

"The balance of victory in today's game has completely tilted towards the Warriors."

Next.

The Cavaliers used a wave of 19-7 to chase the score to 101-99!

There are 4 minutes left in the game.

Cheers broke out again at home!

Jokic had to admire: "The Cavaliers are so tenacious!"

The closer to the last moment, the greater the defensive strength of the two sides.

Facing Durant on the flank, Irving directly held the ball and went inside without fear, and made a left-handed throw under the basket!
The basketball circled the hoop and fell into the socket!
103-103!

2 minutes and 20 seconds left!
After falling behind by 2 points in the opening 14 minutes, the Cavaliers tied the score again 8 minutes later!

At this time, all the fans in the audience have stood up.

Raise your arms and cheer!

"It's good, this game is so damn good! If... if there is really the lore that Brother Long said, this game will be a god!"

Ingram stood up straight away.

The other Lakers players also looked excited.

Only Butler sat on the sofa pretending to be calm.

Every next attack is extremely critical.

Irving singled Curry and broke through to the inside. At this time, James on the outside started to rush to the basket!
Irving passed the ball to James!
James uprooted onions in dry land!
Violent dunk with both hands!

There is still a Green hanging on his body!

There are additional penalties! ! !

103-105!

For the first time in this game, the Cavaliers took the lead!
Still in the last minute and a half!

This goal directly hit the timeout of the Warriors, and the home fans have gone crazy!

James and his teammates bumped their chests passionately.

However, the free throw was missed.

The score remains the same.

The Warriors also completed an air cut and tied the score!

105-105!

Then, Irving went inside and saw a layup, but was taken away by Thompson!
then!

The Warriors switch offense!
Stephen Curry For three! ! !

This ball!
Got it! ! !

108-105!

The audience was pressed, and Curry, who was restricted, stood up 1 minute and 14 seconds before the end of the game!

Hit his second three-pointer of the game!

Terrible three points!

After scoring the goal, Curry also scratched his head.

Falk.

After a whole game of ironing, I finally entered!
Next.

The game is getting more and more tense.

The Lakers players in the lounge were silent, only the breathing of the crowd could be heard.

Everyone is looking forward to the performance of the Cavaliers.

Outside the three-point line, Jefferson, the lights are on!
Three points!

Did not enter!

The basketball bounces out of the frame!

Irving and Durant rushed to the set ball at the same time.

Owen got it!
The score has entered the final half-minute countdown!
Irving, who grabbed the ball, went straight to a one-man fast break, like lightning, he went to the basket, and spun to pull the bar!

This ball!
Got it!

In the offensive round of the Warriors, there were more than 30 seconds left in the game. The Cavaliers did not choose to foul, but chose to guard one-on-one in the backcourt.

Curry consumes time holding the ball outside.

Dooku pick and roll!

Failed to find a suitable opportunity and continued to hold the ball at a 45-degree angle.

This ball!
The Cavaliers defended too well!

When Durant received a pass from Curry and gave it to Thompson in the bottom corner, the offensive whistle sounded in 24 seconds!
Violation!

The Cavaliers patiently waited for their own opportunity!

Ball exchange!

Warriors 108-107 Cavaliers!

Last 13.5 seconds!
Tyronn Lue called a timeout in time.

This timeout also made the Lakers players in the lounge restless.

"Crazy, crazy! I'm so nervous that I can't breathe!"

"I'm in a hurry! There can't be a lore!"

"I really didn't expect the Cavaliers to fight the Warriors to this point."

"Jimmy, why aren't you talking?"

Butler swallowed dryly, opened his mouth, and closed it again. Looking at the still calm Zheng Long, he said slowly, "Long, is there really a lore?"

Zheng Long showed a confused expression, and said, "I guess, I don't know, but it seems that there is a chance."

Butler: "."

The pause came back, no one spoke, and they all continued to stare at the screen.

The Cavaliers served in the frontcourt, and the Warriors pressed hard.

Pause time ends soon!

The Warriors handed the ball to Durant, and Durant... slipped? ! !

The whistle sounded at the end of the game! ! !

The whole game, Warriors 108-109 Cavaliers!

The Cavaliers really deserved to win!

Not only did the Cavaliers win, they won by a lore!

What time, the Cavaliers became a sea of ​​cheers at home!

Cavaliers bench players rushed to the field!
Celebrate with passion!
In the lounge, apart from the dumbfounded Butler and the calm Zheng Long, the other Lakers players also fell into madness!

The Cavaliers, who were led by 14 points in the fourth quarter, tied, overtook, overtook, and completed the lore at the last moment!

Irving, who shot a fatal 45-degree three-pointer in this year's finals and helped the Cavaliers complete an epic 1-3 comeback, scored 5 points in a row at the last moment of this Christmas game.

Ou Shenxian seemed to be announcing to the whole world!

Prove it to the world!
We were able to beat you in the finals last season, but this year you have an extra Durant.

I'm going to win you all!
So what if there are more rands, the fairy Owen is even more rare!
Zheng Long breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down his excitement, and patted Butler.

"Let's go, ready to fight the Clippers."

Butler gave a wry smile.

He didn't lose the $[-] with a wry smile.

He smiled wryly.

Oh shit.

How can I make a bet that I can lose to this man? It's so outrageous!
