Chapter 77 Eight points, eight points.

Eight points, still eight points.

The Lakers score, and the Spurs can respond immediately. If the Spurs don’t score, the Lakers can’t score, so the difference between the two teams has been [-] points, [-] points, [-] points, [-] points, [-] points, [-] points, [-] points You can't get close to the point difference, and he can't close the point difference.

The two sides have been maintaining this kind of situation that it seems that no matter who exerts a little effort, they can change the situation on the field, but neither of them can change the situation on the field.

The Lakers play like a whirlwind, and the Spurs play like a swamp.

The whirlwind is fast and can blow a pool of water into waves, but he is unstable, and it is impossible for him to calm down.

The swamp is stable, he is very calm, there is not even a trace of waves on the surface, but it is difficult for him to make waves.

Now, the Whirlwind Boy Lakers team seems to be stuck in a swamp. It seems that there are no stormy waves or the slightest crisis, but he just can't get out. On the contrary, if he is a little anxious, he will sink deeper and faster.

And this swamp is so calm, expressionless, without a trace of waves, slowly devouring the whirlwind boy, nibbling away the whirlwind boy.

In the end, Whirlwind Boy will be swallowed head to foot by this swamp.

The game passed minute by minute, and the Spurs still maintained the lead in the score. When there were only 1 minutes left in the game, the Spurs still led by nine points.

The Spurs look complicated, everyone is running, everyone is passing the ball, everyone is receiving the ball, but they are actually very simple - pick and roll, cut, play for mismatches, give good chances beat.

James was not so tired in the second half, but was very happy. He didn't care whether he won or lost this game, or even whether he won or lost this series.

Because he remembered his original purpose of coming to the Lakers-he didn't have to be a leader who was responsible for everything.

I'm not saying he's not a leader, he's still a leader, it's not about performance, it's about status.

As long as Kobe is in the Lakers for one day, he will be the leader of the Lakers, no matter how bad his physical condition is, he will be the leader of the Lakers.

As long as Duncan is in the Spurs for a day, whether it is the bald sports car or Kawhi has to step aside, Duncan is the absolute leader of the Spurs, even though he is very low-key.

Look at the Lone Ranger now has Doncic, Barnes Matthews, Dennis Smith, Jordan, etc., but the old driver is here, and he is the leader of the Lone Ranger.

Of course, James has only been in the Lakers for one season, but his achievements, his experience, and what he can provide for the Lakers make him the leader of the Lakers. Although the Lakers have DeRozan, the current ball brother has grown very well. Ingra Tom is absolutely central to their future.

But James is the leader.

But this leadership state is different from when he was in the Cavaliers. He is more relaxed. He won't say that he didn't make the playoffs, that he didn't reach the level of the playoffs, and that he didn't make it to the finals. The whole world will criticize him.

Not anymore!
So I figured out that LeBron enjoyed playing with the Lakers, and it's only eight points now.

James holds the ball at a 45-degree angle on the right side, with continuous crotch, and the defender in front of him is Kuzma.

Kuzma and Mu Xiaobei used to be rookies he liked very much. They are both humble, hardworking, talented, high IQ, and very smart.

But in contrast, DeRozan's arrival made him more happy, and it made him feel that the magician's decision was correct.

We all say that the goal of the Lakers is not this year, not this year, but the rookies and next summer, especially the temporary one-year contracts signed this summer. Both sides are based on the concept of mutual benefit and win-win. Play a good year here and help me coach rookies, and I will give you the platform to help you chase a good team and a big contract next summer.

Next summer, yes, the free agents whose contracts expire next summer are super big names.

During the signing process next summer, the No. [-] position should not introduce superstars, because they have a ball brother, and Ball's growth is gratifying, so Walker, Irving, etc. will be passed.

If there is no DeRozan in the second position, what they want to pursue most is Klay Thompson. They really lack a super 3D and a stable firepower.

Thinking of Clay and the Lakers in this way is quite appropriate, huh?
Then there is Durant, yes, I don't want to go down one by one, there are too many.

There is no doubt that they are very, very tempted by Durant. With Durant, why do they train low-profile Durant?Durant himself is here, two of the best athletes in the world teaming up, wow, the picture is so beautiful.

Others include Butler, who should be Clay's backup candidate. They are all pursuing it. If they agree to make money, they will not lose money.

They will definitely have a big supplement in the interior. The interior configuration of Chandler and McGee, one is very defensive but not very good at offense and a bit blocked space, the other is good at offense but average defense, McGee can block shots, But the blocks aren't all about his defense.

Therefore, those insiders Vucevic, Da Baibian, Jordan, and Cousins ​​will all be within their consideration.

There will be a lot of big names next summer, and there will be a lot of work for the magician. James is 34 years old, and he will be 38 in four years. It will not work to form a lineup with James as the absolute core as usual.

Now they have not many that will stay next summer. James and Ball are sure, and DeRozan should not trade him. Seeing DeRozan's outstanding performance in the regular season this year, What about the rest?

I don't know, even Ingram may not necessarily stay.

Having figured this out, it doesn't mean that it doesn't matter whether James wins or loses, but that there is no such great pressure.

James accelerated at a 45-degree angle and squeezed Kuzma to the basket. Mu Xiaobei had no choice but to meet and defend.

Listening to the cheers of the fans at the Staples Center, James felt like the wind was blowing under his feet.

Without so much pressure and burden, he played more freely.

Mudiay once again played a pick-and-roll with Mu Xiaobei at a high position. This year is his contract year, and his contract is about to expire in the summer, so he must not make mistakes. For his first big contract, Mudiay must perform well .

Mu Xiaobei cuts outside and receives a pass from Mudiay outside the three-point line. Chandler's defensive position is very up. Mu Xiaobei can't make a shot. Lonnie Walker pockets to receive the pass.

Continuously dribbling under the crotch, Hart is a little shorter than Walker, but he is always the most active one in terms of enthusiasm.

However, Hart failed to stop the car when he came out, and Walker accelerated in the opposite direction, threw off Hart's defense, rushed to the basket, faced James' defense and passed the ball to Alder, Alder Mid-range jumper hit.

Eight points, eight points, the point difference is still eight points.
