NBA bench saves national team

Heat team interview room.

The atmosphere was a little dull.

"James, what do you think of the defeat in this Christmas game? Will this game affect your Christmas mood?"

a reporter asked.

"This is an unacceptable defeat. We once had the opportunity to catch up with the score and even reverse the game, but in the end it fell short! This is very sad."

"Of course not! I never bring home a bad mood at work, after all, I have people I love at home, and they are still waiting for me for Christmas."

James gnawed his fingers while talking, his expression was a little dignified, and he was obviously unhappy.

I don't know if he will be able to adjust his mood before returning to Miami.

"This Christmas game is once again regarded as a preview of this season's finals. Do you think this game has any reference significance for the finals?"

a reporter asked.

"No! As we all know, the Lakers' lineup has undergone tremendous changes this season, especially the bench. A group of people have basically changed."

"We played against the Lakers in this game and we are just adapting to their new lineup and new style of play. We will learn from it."

"If we and the Lakers really meet in the finals, then we think many of our mistakes in today's game will not happen again."

James said seriously.

"James, what do you think is the biggest change for the Lakers compared to last season?"

a reporter asked.

"Their three-point shooting ability has become stronger! Their offensive and defensive speed has become faster."

"Although the two giants Louis Williams and Holiday have left, Morris, Butler, Farmar and others have kept the Lakers' bench still very strong."

James shrugged and said, also a little helpless.

As a player, he is too envious of the Lakers' offseason operations.

It really keeps the team very strong and stable!

And the lineup structure tends to be reasonable.

The talent pool in each position is very rich.

It's so... envious.

If the Heat's offseason operations are half as good as the Lakers', then the team's strength will also improve a lot.

"James, this season is the last season of cooperation between the Big Three of the Heat. Will you continue to stay with the Heat to compete for the championship next season?"

a reporter asked.

"Oh! I refuse to answer this question! Next season is very far away for me. I just focus on this season now!"

James said there was no response.

The reporters nodded after hearing this. In fact, they had already guessed something in their hearts.

In several questions about whether to stay next season, James did not give an accurate answer.

This can actually explain the problem.

If you don't emphasize that you want to stay with the Heat, then there is a great possibility of leaving the Heat next season.

Just leave the Heat, which team should James go to continue to pursue the championship?

Maybe we have to wait until next summer to reveal the answer.

"Wade, your contract will also expire, will you stay with the Heat?"

a reporter asked.

"Of course, I will not leave the Heat, my entire career will be dedicated to the Heat!"

Wade said solemnly, with a very serious tone.

He also wants to follow the example of Kobe, Nowitzki and other stars, so as to stick to one person, one city.

The reporters asked a few more questions before ending the post-match interview.

Then, all members of the Heat left the arena, left Los Angeles by plane, and returned to Miami overnight to spend Christmas with their families.

It wasn't a good night for them.

But there is also good news that after the Christmas game, the Heat's schedule has become easier, and five of the next six games will be at home.

And the opponents are all non-playoff teams.

This allows the Heat to get a good adjustment during this period, and it can also sum up the loss of the Christmas game, so as to avoid the same mistake in the next game against the Lakers.

As for the Lakers, after the Christmas game, they still have to face the devil's schedule. Three of the next five games will be playoff teams.

One of the most difficult is the year-end game away against the Thunder!

For Qin Feng, every game against the Thunder will attract great attention.

All fans want to see how Qin Feng will behave when facing his former owner.

And the duel between him and Durant is also quite exciting.

The once close partners are now their own masters, and they are still directly facing each other on the court.

Just thinking about it feels exciting.

Fans didn't have long to wait.

Four days later.

The Lakers are in Oklahoma City and challenge the Thunder away.

As the key game of the nba season, it is natural to announce the full-meter live broadcast early.

from last season.

In the nba regular season, there are only two games that deserve the most attention from fans, and there are only two games that have the most impact, that is, the Lakers vs. the Heat, and the Lakers vs. the Thunder.

Last season's Christmas game was Qin Feng's "going home" drama, playing away against the Thunder.

The year-end battle is the Lakers vs. the Heat.

The two games have been swapped this season.

Ford Center.

An hour before the game, there are already a sea of ​​people, and there are no empty seats.

Many fans are wearing the Thunder's No. 23 jersey (formerly Qin Feng's jersey), and even holding a support sign with the words "Qin Feng, we will always love you" written on their faces.

It can be seen that the Thunder fans have a deep affection for Qin Feng.

When the team just changed its name to Oklahoma City, it was Qin Feng, a small-market team that became the most popular NBA team in the world.

This makes the people of Goose City feel deeply proud.

That always feels like they'll never forget.

That honor will always be in my heart!

After Qin Feng left, the Thunder team inevitably went into decline.

Although Durant and Westbrook have also supported this team, after all, they can't reach the honor and glory that Qin Feng achieved when he was in the team.

Fans in Goose City miss Qin Feng's years with the Thunder, but now they can only see Qin Feng twice a year at the Ford Center.

Of course, if the two teams meet in the playoffs, they can see more times.

In any case, when Qin Feng was in the Thunder team, things were different.

on the field.

When the Lakers players ran out of the player tunnel, the audience cheered enthusiastically, and many fans even shouted the name of "Qin Feng".

They also know that Qin Feng is now an opponent and an enemy.

But they still couldn't help shouting for Qin Feng, because Qin Feng was once the hero of this city!

Although he has left Goose City, there are his legends everywhere.

He is still affecting the city! !
