Chapter 1506 The No. 21 Rookie Is so Terrifying

It only took 30 minutes to score 28 points, 11 assists, 8 rebounds, 3 steals and 3 blocks. Ji Feng's performance was undoubtedly perfect, especially against the backdrop of Gay's 4-for-13 shooting and Mayo's 3-for-16 shooting. Down.

"There is no doubt that letting Ji Feng go is the biggest mistake the Grizzlies have made in recent years. The better Ji Feng's performance, the more uncomfortable the Grizzlies management will be. What a stupid decision they made back then. " Smith said after the game.

Indeed, Grizzlies fans now feel helpless with the current situation of the team. Every year, the Memphis media will declare that this season will take off, and the outside world also advocates that they are one of the most talented and future teams in the league.

However, one year, two years, and three years have passed, and they are still weak. The rookies they selected have talent but have been unable to fulfill their expectations. Gay, who has high hopes, is still the steel expert, the star of hope last season. Mayo has also become mediocre, even if his average data per game has not improved at all compared to last season, and his true shooting percentage has also dropped a lot.

The newcomer Thabeet is visible to the naked eye. In this game, he was defeated by Lakers substitute Powell. Powell, a man who averaged 5 points per game, scored 12 points and 7 rebounds in 19 minutes of playing. He only scored 2 points and 3 rebounds in 26 minutes of playing time. Is this the legendary African mountain? Logically speaking, this data and ability are not enough for the CBA.

Looking around, only Conley is making steady progress in the team. As for the black and white bears inside, they really get too little ball rights. Under such a tactical system, it is difficult for them to have space to play.

"Although I don't want to admit it, it may be time for the Grizzlies to rebuild again." Memphis media said after the game.

This statement made many Grizzlies fans laugh. To be fair, aren't you guys always in the process of rebuilding...

"They don't think they have succeeded in the past two years, do they?" a fan asked in Hupu.

But what the media said makes sense. Of course, according to Ji Feng, what the Grizzlies need to do is not to rebuild, but to change tactics, let capable people occupy the core, and clean up the incompetent guys. Who is this incompetent guy? No need to say more.

Ignore the Memphis Bears and focus on the Lakers. After successfully defeating the Grizzlies and winning two consecutive games, the Los Angeles Lakers finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this also meant that their long road trip this season had finally come to an end. , they will usher in a wave of consecutive home games, which is definitely the best news recently for the tired Lakers generals.

The Grammy journey of this century is undoubtedly a success. In the last 10 games, the Lakers have 8 wins and 2 losses, including 9 away games and 7 wins. This performance has undoubtedly given the whole team a hard time. Rest assured, they should have a good result before the All-Star Game.

After defeating the Grizzlies back-to-back, the Lakers received another good news. On the 3rd, the NBA officially announced the best players in the Eastern and Western Conferences for January. The Lakers' Ji Feng and the Cavaliers' James were elected again.

Last month, Ji Feng averaged a triple-double of 28.9 points, 13.4 assists and 10.3 rebounds per game, and topped the steals list with 3.6 steals per game, leading the Lakers to an 11-3 record in a single month. There is a gap in wins, but they still beat the Western Conference and even the entire league.

Lao Zhan led the team to a record of 10 wins and 4 losses in a single month, continuing to lead the Eastern Conference, averaging 29.8 points, 8.9 assists and 8.6 rebounds per game.

This is also Ji Feng's best player in the third month of this season. The number of times is the same as that of James next door, and the competition between the two in the MVP list is still fierce. James ranks second with a slight disadvantage. This disadvantage is not only the team's In addition to the record, of course, James also lost against the Lakers twice. If he wants to reverse the situation in the future, James will need more efforts.

And with this momentum, on the 4th, the Lakers faced the challenge of the Bobcats at home.

This season the Bobcats exceeded all expectations. In the 2009 draft, the Bobcats used the 12th pick to select Duke University's Gerald Henderson, and also selected Xavier University's Derrick Brown.

On July 28, 2009, the Bobcats also sent Emeka Okafor to the New Orleans Hornets in exchange for center Tyson Chandler.

On November 16, 2009, the Bobcats sent Laga Bell and Radmanovic to the Golden State Warriors in exchange for Stephen Jackson and Asilao.

Coupled with the fact that they established Wallace's core position, this series of operations allowed the Bobcats to rise in the Eastern Conference. They are currently ranked seventh in the Eastern Conference and are just a stone's throw away from their first playoff trip. In the same period last season, they won 13 more games, 8 more than the best record in history, and core Gerald Wallace also historically entered the Eastern Conference All-Stars.

The Bobcats have transformed into the Panthers, and this season is undoubtedly their most promising year to create history.

But in front of the Lakers, they were still little cats. On the night of the 4th, even though their team played hard, with Stephen Jackson and Gerald Wallace teaming up to score 56 points, it was still difficult to defeat the Lakers, who had a mediocre feel.

Ji Feng and Gasol shined at Staples. Ji Feng scored 30 points and 10 assists, and Gasol scored 22 points and 20 rebounds. Neither inside nor outside suffered a loss. At the critical moment, Ji Feng used continuous breakthroughs to cause damage to Chandler. 6 fouls left the field.

There was no miracle, 99-90, the Lakers narrowly defeated the Bobcats at home and won 3 consecutive victories.

After defeating the Bobcats, the Lakers defeated the Jazz two days later, 96-81. The Lakers were almost bloodless.

Today's Jazz are really too weak. Although their lineup has not changed in the past few seasons, in the Western Conference, sailing against the current will lead to retreat. No change is the biggest original sin. They can no longer adapt to the harsh competitive environment in the Western Conference.

What's more, injuries are more severe than tigers. It has become an indisputable fact that Boozer and Kirilenko are out of shape. Only Deron is left in the team to support him. Sloan's tactics are no longer sharp. There are conflicts in the team. Maybe it’s time to say goodbye to Utah Shuangsha 2.0.

Some old fans may be a little bit sad. After watching the game for so long, the Jazz is finally going to die. Unfortunately, the Rockets have also fallen with them.

Fortunately, there are Lakers. Today's Lakers have replaced the Rockets in the hearts of fans. The current Lakers are the hope of Chinese fans.

However, I hope that I will still encounter challenges occasionally. No. 7, it is a familiar back-to-back, and it is an away game. This time the opponent is Popovich's Spurs. The Holy City fans have given the Lakers who have come all the way so far this season. Biggest boo.

However, it was still the Lakers who took the lead. Ji Feng's three breakthroughs in the opening game allowed Duncan to foul out twice, which directly disrupted the Spurs' plan. As a result, the Spurs fell behind 30-18 by 12 points in the first quarter.

However, this seemed to irritate the old Duncan. Tonight, Shi Buddha was rejuvenated. He scored double figures in the second and third quarters in a row. He scored 24 points in the third quarter and had 3 blocks and 7 rebounds. The data of 3 offensive rebounds helped the Spurs complete the lead at the end of the third quarter!

In the last quarter, the Spurs completed a near-win in the last minute. Parker assisted Duncan in making a famous goal. In the end, Kobe failed to win. The Lakers lost 100-101 in an away game and won their seventh defeat of the season.

Duncan scored 35 points, 12 rebounds and 4 blocks. He played his best game of the season and ended the Lakers' 5-game winning streak in one fell swoop. Considering that he barely played in the first quarter, Duncan only needed 3 quarters to produce such statistics. .

"Rookie No. 21, it's so scary." Ji Feng, who scored 34 points and 12 assists in this game, had to lament that Duncan is still the same Duncan.
