Chapter 1913 Invincible Is so Lonely

Defeating the underdog Timberwolves, the Lakers won four consecutive victories. The most eye-catching personal data in this game is not the Lakers' stars, but the league's emerging double-double king, Kevin Love.

The No. 5 pick in 2008 is now the No. 4 position with the most impressive per-game averages in the league. Last season, he averaged an astonishing 20.2 points and 15.2 rebounds per game. He also broke Howard's monopoly on the rebounding title for three consecutive seasons. This season, Love continues to grow, averaging 25.6 points and 13.3 rebounds per game since the start of the season. Counting last season, he has scored double-doubles in 43 consecutive games, surpassing Garnett and becoming the best in Timberwolves history.

In fact, as early as November 13, 2010, when the Timberwolves faced the Knicks at home, Love scored 31 points and 31 rebounds in the game, setting an NBA career single-game scoring and rebounding record, becoming the first player in NBA history since 1982. After Moses Malone, he was the first player to have a double-30 score sheet in a single game. He was also the first player to have a double-30 score in a single game in the history of the Timberwolves. His 31 rebounds set a record in the history of the Timberwolves.

In this game against the Lakers, Love also got a big double-double with 32 points and 17 rebounds. It's just a pity that the Lakers have too many people who can score. Ji Feng 25 points, 11 assists and 9 rebounds, Kobe Bryant 23 points, Gasol Er 20 points, Bynum 14 points, Artest 8 points, Kapono 7 points, Farmar 7 points.

This performance once again made Love the leader of the empty-cutting group.

If he continues like this, Love will be close to the second wave of the Big Three. James next door will be drooling... Ahem, it's not time to talk about this yet.

Back to topic.

On February 1st, the Lakers did not stop. Ji Feng made his debut and led the team to a 106-73 victory over the Hornets, a lowly team in the Western Conference. The Hornets that Paul left are currently at the bottom of the Western Conference. 41 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds. While getting a triple-double in the seventh game of the season, he also continued to maintain his position at the top of the scoring list. This was also the first time Ji Feng got a 40+ triple-double in the season and the 19th time in his career. 40+ triple-doubles, first in history.

"In terms of triple-double data, Ji Feng is really lonely." ESPN commented after the game.

With such data and the team's 19-1 record, Ji Feng was undisputedly elected as the NBA Western Conference Player of the Month for January. This is the 12th time in less than five seasons of Ji Feng's career that he has been elected to this honor. .

This number left all the All-Star players speechless. Many of them had never received so much in their lives. It was simply a BUG.

However, bugs sometimes occur. Three days later, the long-lost vacation may have made the Lakers players a little too relaxed. To put it simply, they took a big break.

This allowed them to be taken away by a wave of opponents when they met the Denver Nuggets Athletics team on the road on the 4th night.

It is said that the Nuggets after Anthony left are really good. Although there is no All-Star, civilians also have the benefits of civilians. The Nuggets can be said to be the most balanced scoring team in the league.

Six players scored in double figures in this game. Nene scored the highest with 16 points and 8 rebounds. Miller had 14 points, Teacher 10 points and Harrington 11 points.

The data is not eye-catching, but the performance is very good. Originally the Lakers played very well. Although the shooting rate was not high, they always maintained the lead. However, in the last three and a half minutes of the fourth quarter, the Nuggets suddenly made consecutive steals and caught There was an opportunity to launch a 10-3 attack wave, and the Lakers, who were resting, were taken away before they could react.

100-92, the Lakers lost by 8 points in the away game and suffered their second loss of the season.

After winning the game, the Nuggets didn't react. They forgot to celebrate after the game. It wasn't until the press conference that they recognized the reality.

The Lakers, who had capsized in the gutter, also made a review after the game. Ji Feng said: "We were a little drifting because we were ahead by 3 points at the last minute."

"This is a problem we need to summarize. We lost the will to win in the end." Kobe was also very dissatisfied with the loss.

Externally, the team became even more severe. Not to mention Zen Master's criticism, major players such as Ji Feng also made self-criticisms. This is also an effective error correction system that the Lakers have formed over several seasons.

The Lakers' next opponent, the Jazz, is trembling at this time. Generally, after the Lakers start to correct their mistakes, there will definitely be a big explosion.

as expected.

On February 5th, the Lakers faced the Jazz back-to-back away from home. After losing Boozer and Deron, the Jazz also found bench players such as Josh Howard and Laga Bell, and they played well.

However, when encountering the gritty Lakers, they could only accept the fate of being beaten.

In this game, 7 Lakers scored in double figures. Ji Feng had a triple-double with 31 points, 15 assists and 15 rebounds. Kobe had 25 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds. Gasol had 17 points. Bynum had 10 points. Artest had 11 points. Marr scored 10 points, Kapono had 12 points, and the Lakers beat the Jazz 139-100 in an away game with 39 points.

Jazz fans: MMP!

We provoked whomever!

The 76ers soon became the next victim. Even though they were at home and despite Iguodala's 23 points, the huge score of 130-98 still showed how terrible the Lakers were after they got serious.

Ji Feng scored back-to-back triple-doubles of 32 points, 13 assists, 13 rebounds, 4 steals and 4 blocks, bringing his season triple-doubles to 9. He will soon become the first player in history to achieve triple-doubles in five consecutive seasons.

"This is the Lakers, isn't it? There's no way we can beat them." Iguodala was convinced.

It's okay not to accept it. People who don't accept it are likely to die more miserably.

For example, the Celtics will naturally not have a good look towards the Lakers, and they themselves are not afraid of the Lakers. Putting aside the grievances between the two teams, although the Celtics lost to the Lakers in two finals, their The strength has always been capable of challenging the Lakers.

This season they continue to maintain the configuration of the old Big Three, and their organizational core is already Rondo. Although they lost O'Neal, a strong inside player, in the offseason, they recruited O'Neal Jr., and Brandon Bass also became a substitute. As a member of the team, Pietrus and other three-pointers are also important supplements. They are now ranked third in the Eastern Conference, second only to the Bulls and Heat.

And they, like the Lakers, defeated the Heat head-on.

This time they were at home again, so there was no reason to give in.

"Iguodala really can't help it, but we can, and we will entertain them well in the North Shore Garden." Pierce said.

"We're going to win, and they should know it." Garnett.

The players of Green Kai are very confident. They are confident of winning this much-anticipated classic yellow-green battle.

But once the game started, something didn't taste right.

Garnett's first layup under the basket was slapped hard on the backboard by Ji Feng, who was assisting on defense. After landing, Ji Feng even controlled the ball and hit Garnett's legs and bounced out of the sideline.

The final result of this round was that Ji Feng dominated both offense and defense. He put the ball into the basket in a one-on-three frontcourt. The Green Army's proud defense was like paper in front of Ji Feng.

And the scariest thing is that there are many more shots like this in the first quarter.

In the entire first quarter, Ji Feng scored 19 points and had 4 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 blocks and 2 steals. His shooting percentage was an astonishing 7-for-7!

"Ah, being invincible is so lonely."
