Chapter 103

On November 11, the Kings challenged the New Orleans Hornets in back-to-back away games.The two teams played against each other last month, also in this field, and the visiting team won that game.

But now the two teams are not what they used to be. The core of the Kings Kevin Martin has missed many games due to injuries, and his comeback seems to be far away, and their record (7 wins and 20 losses) is also terrible; After an unfavorable start at the beginning of the season, they are finally on the track. Currently, with 15 wins and 7 losses, they firmly occupy the first place in the Southwest Division.

In this game, the two teams played very anxiously throughout the game, but the gap in strength was still obvious.The Hornets finally defeated their opponents at home calmly, giving their opponents a 3-game losing streak.

谢开本场比赛登场19分钟,得到12分3篮板3助攻1抢断。

Two days later, the Kings lost to the powerful Spurs in San Antonio by nearly 20 points, ushering in a 4-game losing streak.

After the 4-game losing streak, the aura of the new kings coach Kenny Knight slowly faded, and the fans of the kings no longer believed that he could turn waste into treasure and lead the current kings to do much this season.

After the end of this wave of road trips, the Kings returned to Saskatchewan.This wave of 4-game losing streak in away games is a huge blow to this team that has just changed coaches.Fortunately, the nightmare is over for the time being, and Christmas is coming.

The annual Christmas battle is about to start, but for the Kings, it has nothing to do with them. The NBA is a business league, and the league is not stupid. Letting such a team that has always had nothing occupy the precious resources of the national live broadcast, this is simply a waste of money!
The Kings have 4 days off over Christmas and they will have plenty of time to rest and adjust.But then again, this team, which is already rotten to the bottom, can be adjusted after adjustments, what can it be adjusted to?Unless there is a trade, relying on this group of people to get a good record in the next regular season is no different from the Arabian Nights.

There are many teams at the bottom of the league, but many teams have a lot of high-ranking potential stocks in their hands, but in contrast to the Kings, there are only two young players who can be called the lottery-Jason Thompson and Xie Kai.But in the eyes of most people, the potential of these two people is not good, and their draft picks also indicate that the talents of these two people are not optimistic.Even if it is played, the upper limit may be an excellent role player.

On the night of the 24th, Xie Kai was having a video chat with his girlfriend Zhou Jing in his rented apartment.

"Hey, did you forget something?" Zhou Jing asked suggestively.

"I haven't forgotten, tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and the day after tomorrow is Christmas!" Xie Kai said calmly.

Zhou Jing rolled her eyes and said, "Then don't you know what a boyfriend should do on this kind of festival?"

"Have you received the gift yet?" Xie Kai asked.

"Received—" Zhou Jing seemed not very interested, and deliberately dragged the end of the sound for a long time.

Xie Kai's emotional intelligence is not low, he also knows Zhou Jing very well, of course she is not referring to gifts.

"Quiet, please forgive me for not being able to spend Christmas with you. You know, my current situation is not very good. Our team has lost 4 games in a row. I have to hurry up and train to get more chances to perform. , help the team win!" Xie Kai said very sincerely.

Zhou Jing was aggrieved at first, but when she heard Xie Kai's words, most of them disappeared immediately.She is not the kind of girl who is unreasonable and only messes around. He knows Xie Kai's current situation.

"Okay, I won't argue with you this time, but Xie Xiaokai, please listen to me, I will write it down, and you will make it up to me in the future! Hmph—" Zhou Jing pouted slightly.

Xie Kai was too happy to see such a considerate girlfriend, so of course he agreed repeatedly.He knew that Zhou Jing was not really angry.

Xie Kai is not exaggerating, his current situation is not good.Although he has entered the team's rotation, if the team's record continues to be such rubbish, after the end of the season, even if his statistics are not bad, his performance will be discounted.This is why Ricky Davis scored 20+5 in the Cavaliers but can only wander in the league, while Yaodao was 19+4 in the Spurs last season but is considered a quasi-All-Star player.After all, the good data of a bad team is not recognized, because it will be said that it is brushed.

——In the NBA, no one seems to say that the core players of a championship team score statistics.

In the past few days of Christmas, Xie Kai has been training in the training hall.He's working on his outside shot, and he's playing singles with Dolby.The two have become good friends since the last heads-up match, and usually train together and eat together.

Xie Kai's training volume is several times that of normal people, because he has the treasure of "consciousness training".Under normal circumstances, he can maintain 24 hours of uninterrupted training, which is impossible for others.

After Christmas, the Kings ushered in a challenge from the Toronto Raptors at home on December 12.

The Raptors' current record is not outstanding, with a record of 11 wins and 17 losses, and it is difficult to rank in the top 8 in the Eastern Conference.The team's new aid Jermaine O'Neal failed to perform well after joining, and the twin towers formed by him and Bosh are not worthy of the name.

However, in this game, the Raptors' twin towers showed a strong side when facing the weak inside line of the Kings.O'Neal scored a season-high 36 points and 7 rebounds, completely destroying the Kings' interior defense.

即便谢开替补贡献15+7+7+2+1,依然无法帮助球队取得胜利。

In the end, the Kings lost at home to the visiting Raptors, ushering in an embarrassing five-game losing streak.

On December 12, the Kings continued to play at home and ushered in a game against the defending champion Boston Celtics.

In this game, from start to finish, the home team did not get any chances.They were hammered by their opponents, and finally lost by 45 points!This is the biggest point difference they have lost since the start of the regular season this season.

None of the Kings starters scored in double figures, and the few fans in the Sleep Train Arena kept booing to express their inner dissatisfaction, and many fans even left the field early.

6 consecutive losses!The Kings achieved a poor record of 1 win and 6 losses after the coaching change, and almost everyone woke up from the only remaining dream.Kenny Knight is not a savior, he is just an assistant coach.

There was no sound in the Kings locker room, and the losing streak made the players not in a good mood.Everyone is a professional player, no one likes a losing streak, and the feeling of being booed by the fans is not good.
