Chapter 74
湖人队：科比20分14篮板11助攻2抢断8失误。

Butler had 19 points and 10 rebounds.

Odom had 19 points and 12 rebounds.

Mihm had 18 points and 7 rebounds.

Cook 16 points.

……

叶和平全场0分，这还是他常规赛第一次挂0，6篮板2助攻2抢断2盖帽4犯规，可能是至今打得最差的数据了。

But fans of later generations recognized that this was the battle of Ye Heping's rookie season, and he lived up to the name of tough guy in Los Angeles.

Some fans ridiculed: This is a game full of sex.

In the early stage, Ye Heping was always looking for confrontation, but in the later stage, he kept fouling.

Looking back now, Stoudemire is really miserable!
This also made many players in the NBA believe: Don't mess with Ye Heping if you mess with anyone.

Of course, there are always some thorns who express dissatisfaction and want to compete with Ye Heping.

On the side of the sun:

Nash had 24 points, 6 rebounds, 12 assists and 2 steals. He did everything tonight, but he still couldn't make up for Stoudemire's loopholes.

In fact, Stoudemire's character problem is often used by the opponent, such as the Spurs with three organs (Bowen, Horry, Ginobili).

单打乔25分3篮板7助攻，阿Q21分7篮板4助攻，马里昂19分9篮板4助攻。

Stoudemire had 9 points and 6 rebounds...

As a result, the Lakers continued to lead the league with a record of 15 wins and 3 losses, and the Suns ranked second with 15 wins and 4 losses.

After the game, this battle of focus has won widespread attention, and fans have launched a protracted discussion on the conflict between Ye Heping and Stoudemire.

In the online world, there are all kinds of comments, so I won’t talk about it.

In the press conference after the game, the head coaches of both sides only talked about the victory and defeat, and kept silent about the conflict.

This is also understandable, D'Antoni is a family scandal that cannot be exposed, and Tang Shuai is to protect his disciples.

That night, the league's sudden verdict surprised the fans.

Stoudemire was suspended for three games on the grounds that he repeatedly charged the referee.

Uh, this reason... is pretty good (pull).

But it is also acceptable. Less than a month has passed since the incident at the Palace of Auburn Hills. It is a sensitive period, and the alliance is really ruthless.

The Suns and the Lakers did not fight, but there were some signs, and the suspension began.

Moreover, Stern intends to implement the "zero tolerance" strategy to maintain the dignity of the referee, and this punishment may not have this meaning.

A little later, the Lakers official website announced the news: Ye Heping injured his right hand and had a three-game truce.

As soon as the news was released, the fans really dreamed about it.

Stoudemire had three games, and Ye Heping also had three games.

And the right hand is the one that Ye Heping used to beat Stoudemire, so if he beat Stoudemire to death, could he still be injured?

Could it be that he was injured by beating someone?
There is definitely something inside here!

Ye Heping was also taken aback when he was notified, but Divac reminded Ye Heping that this was the meaning of the above, and asked Ye Heping to keep a low profile.

Ye Heping instantly understood.

But fortunately, Ye Heping missed the game due to injury, and his salary was still paid.

Stoudemire was suspended by the league, and he will lose a lot of money in three games.

In fact, the league can't do anything about it. They want to punish Ye Heping, but they can't find a suitable excuse, so they can only use the means of the Lakers to operate.

Stern worked for NBA bosses, but his methods were really powerful. He was like a dictator in that era, and many bosses had to listen to him instead.

……

12 month 11 day.

The Lakers played the Clippers away.

Well, as a Los Angeles city derby, there are actually no home and away games, and they are all played at Staples anyway.

And most importantly, there must be more fans supporting the Lakers than the Clippers.

科比爆砍37分10篮板5助攻，奥多姆19分12篮板，阿特金斯14分。

Then, the Lakers lost.

Lost to the Clippers, who lacked team leader Elton Brand.

马盖蒂27分5篮板3助攻，米基·摩尔18分14篮板，鲍比·西蒙斯15分6篮板，基德尔斯12分3篮板5助攻，马克·雅里奇6分5篮板10助攻……

In this game, the Lakers' defense was sieved.

Atkins was eaten by Jarich again and again, Mim was educated by the little-known Mickey Moore, and Cook, who was a substitute, failed to score and was regarded as a defensive loophole...

When he is around, you don't know his goodness.

Only when you lose it, you will know its preciousness.

After the game, some fans ridiculed the Lakers like this.

Ye Heping is usually around, and no one thinks anything about him.But Ye Heping was suspended, and the Lakers exposed many problems.

The biggest problem is defense, especially the 1st and 4th positions.

Without Ye Heping's supplementary defense and assistance defense, the problems of these two positions were fully exposed.

Atkins made many mistakes, and the audience was regarded as a loophole.The Lakers fans were so angry that they nicknamed him "the most useless point guard".

And Cook, who has had an explosive performance recently, is even worse. He can't get a good shot, and the defensive end is also a loophole.

After playing for only 10 minutes, Tang Shuai couldn't take it anymore and refused to let Cook play.

And Kobe, Kobe in this game is both a mother and a father.The offense relies on him alone, and the defensive end is also responsible for the Clippers' second-in-command Corey Maggette, and he also needs to supplement Atkins and Cook...

As a well-known stamina monster, Kobe was almost so tired that he knelt on the floor in the end.

"A song "You Come Back" is dedicated to the Lakers. This is the voice of the Lakers players at the moment!"

"Ye, you are the most precious, peace, so it is so important! Without Ye, I feel that the Lakers have gone from a leader to a watchdog for the playoffs."

"That's right, the Lakers played too softly tonight, except for the boss, like a bunch of pussies."

"Kobe's defense is better, but Ye Heping's defensive contribution is greater. He is the core of the Lakers' defense, doing all the dirty and tiring work."

"Every strong team must have such a guy. Bowen of the Spurs, Ben of the Pistons, Artest of the Pacers..."

"Speaking of Artest, long time no see!"

"Artest: See you next season!"

"It's a pity Artest, if there is no incident at the Palace of Auburn Hills, he will be a proper superstar. I'm afraid it will be over now."

"It's far away, let's talk about the Lakers. I think you overestimate Ye Heping. He is not bad, but he will definitely not rise to the core of defense. It's like the Spurs. Isn't Duncan the core of defense, but Bowen?"

"I agree. After all, the Lakers are rebuilding, and the system is relatively chaotic. Ye Heping happens to be able to defend many positions, so it is easy to use. When the Lakers system is stable, Ye Heping will not be easy to use."

"Your theory is too outrageous, how can it be reasonable? It's just nonsense."

"Okay, stop arguing. There are still two games, and the facts will prove everything."

……

On December 12, the Lakers played against the Magic at home. The two teams will meet for the second time this season, and it will be the last time, unless the two teams can meet in the finals.

In the first confrontation, Ye Heping was still there, but the Lakers lost.

This time, 105:98, the Lakers won.

赢的关键就是克里斯·米姆，他今晚大爆发18投11中，罚球6中3，砍下25分14篮板2盖帽，其中8个前场篮板。

There are more offensive rebounds than backcourt rebounds, and no one else.

科比23分8篮板6助攻，奥多姆25分8篮板5助攻，阿特金斯15分5助攻……

On the magic side:

弗朗西斯27分7篮板13助攻1抢断2盖帽，弗老大的威力犹存，依旧是那个西部全明星首发1号位，折叠式上篮劲爆无比。

His real decline came after being stepped on by Bowen.

格兰特·希尔16分6助攻，“老猫”莫布里13分，霍华德11分8篮板……

Poor Howard was beaten by a meme and buckled by Kobe.

Kobe's dunking champion center is a well-known hobby in the NBA: Olajuwon, Robinson, Ewing, O'Neal, and Yao Ming were all spared.

(O'Neal was in training, and Olajuwon fouled first and was called invalid.)
Now it's Howard's turn.

Ye Heping, who was "recovering from his injuries" on the bench, was dumbfounded and remembered one thing at the same time.

Is this the reason for the conflict between Howard and Kobe later?
