Chapter 672 The Eastern Month's Best
This is the style of the Spurs, and it is also the reason why the Spurs have been as stable as an old dog for 20 years.
The Spurs are too solid.
Compared with the Lakers, the Spurs lack the passion that young players should have on the field.
No matter how old a player comes to the Spurs, he looks like a seasoned veteran with a very mature playing style.
This is the advantage of the Spurs, but also the disadvantage of the Spurs.
The Spurs just can't play the passion...and blood that the Lakers have.
At halftime, the Lakers were 58 to 48, already leading the Spurs by double digits.
When Ge Feng saw this, there was uncontrollable surprise in his eyes.
This group of Lakers players, through these five games without a core, kept exposing problems and overcoming them.
The current Lakers have become very strong.
Even if Ge Feng and Davis are not on the court, the Lakers can still play back and forth with their opponents in the game.
In the second half, the Spurs began to chase points frantically under the leadership of DeRozan and Aldridge.
The Spurs once narrowed the point difference to only 1 point.
But by the fourth quarter, Pope and Harrell succeeded in continuing, failing to let the Spurs' counterattack succeed.
With the outstanding performance of Schroeder, Pope, Harrell and others, the Lakers finally beat the Spurs 107 to 101 at home and won 5 of the 3 games that Ge Feng could not play.
Schroder scored 29 points, 7 rebounds and 10 assists in a quasi-triple-double, playing his strongest game since joining the Lakers.
Bojan and Matthews made a total of 7 three-pointers.
Harrell also averaged a double-double of 10+ points and 10+ rebounds per game, and Gasol was lucky enough to get a double-double of 10+ points and 10+ assists.
In the last game against the Rockets, the generals of the Lakers were still a little depressed.
But the Lakers adjusted quickly. In this scene against the Spurs, every player played a value beyond the contract.
It can only be said that the Lakers team has a very strong hidden background.
As long as Kobe can follow the temptation, this Lakers team is likely to establish a dynasty in the NBA in the next ten years.
The Lakers defeated the Spurs in this wave, and the level of support for the Lakers from the outside world has directly reached a new peak.
In the absence of the two cores inside and outside the team, the Lakers can still achieve 5 wins in 3 games, which shows that the Lakers have grown into a truly strong team.
The outside world also has a new understanding of Kobe's coaching ability.
At the beginning of the season, many people questioned that Kobe would not coach.
In fact, the difference between coaching a team and being the boss of the team is not very big.
Kobe has long proved that he has the ability to be the boss of the team. Based on this, Kobe can play the role of head coach well.
Moreover, Kobe is still the Lakers, the most uncontroversial boss in history.
The famous Lakers magician who is as famous as Kobe, in the years when he established a dynasty for the Lakers, his teammates also included skyhookers Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Nixon, McAdu, Worthy and other Hall of Fame stars.
The status of the boss of the magician is not obvious, and even in many cases, the magician has to discuss it with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
But Kobe was different.
Kobe won two championship trophies later in his career, and that was the unsuspecting leader of the Lakers.
Even if the opponent is the Big Four formed by Pierce + Garnett + Ray Allen + Rondo, Kobe can lead a mere All-Star Pau Gasol to complete the counterattack and win the championship.
Kobe's ability to lead the team is beyond doubt.
After Kobe became the head coach of the Lakers, the Lakers' locker room suddenly became the hardest-working locker room in the league.
The Lakers won 30 consecutive victories, which is a miracle that most teams can hardly create.
Although the Lakers are in some trouble, as Kobe said, the Lakers are not afraid of failure in the regular season, but they are afraid that the Lakers' problems will not be fully exposed during the regular season, and they will suffer a big loss in the playoffs.
After Davis' injury and Ge Feng's suspension, the Lakers became more united and more mature.
To be more precise, it should be said that the Lakers players finally dropped their dependence on Ge Feng and Davis and became an upright player.
Every member of the Lakers realizes that they can no longer entrust the hope of winning to others.
You must rely on your own hands to hold on to your own championship!
After winning the Spurs, the morale of the entire Lakers team was boosted.
At this time, the league announced the list of the league's best players of the month for December.
The competition for the best player in the Eastern Conference in December mainly focuses on Butler of the Heat and Antetokounmpo of the Bucks.
12月份，字母哥场均得到27分12篮板6助攻，当他出战时，雄鹿队拿到14胜7负的战绩。
On December 12, in the Bucks' game against the 14ers, Antetokounmpo vowed to avenge his elimination last season.
全场比赛下来，字母哥狂砍52分16个篮板7次助攻，得分创造职业生涯新高，他也顺利成为近35年来，第6位单场至少拿到50分15个篮板5次助攻的球员。
The previous five players to do this were Jordan, Chris Webber, James Harden, Anthony Davis and Westbrook.
However, although Antetokounmpo performed very efficiently in December, the best player in the East was thrown away by Butler.
It is worth mentioning that this is the first time in Butler's career that he has won the NBA Eastern Conference Player of the Month.
As a tragic hero with extremely poor talent, low golf IQ, and a pitiful background, Bartley, with his extraordinary perseverance, insisted on fighting a bloody road in the NBA and gradually leading to success.
Antetokounmpo was not only not angry after Butler snatched the Eastern Conference Player of the Month in December, but also tweeted himself to congratulate Butler.
Butler is 33 years old now.
Yes, that's right, you read that right.
Butler's actual age is two years older than Leonard and only one year younger than Durant.
Butler is different from players like Durant and Leonard who have just entered the league and made their names.
It took Butler ten years to gradually achieve it from entering the NBA to being gradually recognized by fans.
For ten years, Butler has been working hard every day at [-] a.m. in Chicago.
Butler's talent and golf quotient may not be as dazzling as superstars.
But Butler's effort makes at least 99% of athletes feel inferior.
Butler insisted on unremitting efforts to train himself into an invulnerable steel body, and successfully amazed the whole world in the 19-20 season.
But Butler at this time was over 30 years old!
In fact, Butler has reached the tail end of his career peak.
And the best player in the Eastern Conference in December is the most valuable trophy that Butler has won in the 12 years since he entered the NBA...
