The strongest basket king

Chapter 13 Official debut
"Why, don't you think it's okay, I seldom cook." Olivia said angrily.

Xiang Chu sighed, it is because you seldom do anything that he is worried about this plate of Canadian food.

Is this dark sauce really reliable, not just the sauce, this dish is black.

Eating out was not possible, so Xiang Chu went to the supermarket to make big purchases, and Olivia rarely wanted to show off her cooking skills, letting Xiang Chu taste Canadian food, and it turned out like this.

"Xiang, are you really not coming?" Jim Smith sent a message.

Can you say regret, you shouldn’t be soft-hearted just now, Jim Smith should agree when he asks him to go over for dinner.

"I'm not here to make light bulbs." Xiang Chu hurriedly replied to delay the time.

That bastard Jim has dated his girlfriend, even without Olivia, Xiang Chu wouldn't have passed, it seems that fate has already been doomed.

Xiang Chu tasted a big mouthful of Canadian food with the mood of dying... well, it was a bit salty, but the taste was not as horrible as imagined, and he immediately showed an encouraging smile.

In this way, we can boast about each other's business. Olivia enjoyed a few dishes he cooked, and he also wanted to express whether he was right or not.

Although this Christmas is not with the family, it can be regarded as a very special one.

The start of the regular season is the Christmas game, which is a scenario that Xiang Chu hadn't thought of before.

Compared to the preseason games, the Staples Center is more buzzing, with an unrivaled atmosphere.

Kobe's expression was serious, he didn't know if he was like this usually or something was wrong.

Their opponent is the Bulls in the Eastern Conference, and their leader last season, MVP Derrick Rose is also the hottest star in the league.

The Bulls stopped in the Eastern Conference finals last season, and now they are making a comeback. While keeping all important rotation prospects, they also introduced the former All-Star Richard Hamilton who is still fighting.

It can be said that the Bulls' starting lineup basically has no shortcomings, and there are several very good players on the bench. In terms of lineup integrity, they are stronger than the Lakers, which is rare in the league.

In other words, Rose's offensive power has not yet reached the level of Kobe's top five in the league.

The Lakers are still facing a problem, that is, Bynum is still suspended due to a malicious foul in the playoffs against the Mavericks last season. There is no problem in the preseason, but now he cannot play.

Xiang Chu looked forward to it a little, but the team still let Josh McRoberts start.

The highest-paid player signed in the summer, even if he didn't perform well in the preseason, he still has to try his luck.

It's the second-year student Devin Ebanks who gets the chance to start, and the other is Fisher, Kobe and Gasol.

Compared with the Bulls' All-Star Rose, and the quasi-All-Star Luol Deng, Carlos Boozer, Joakim Noah, and Richard Hamilton, the Lakers' starting lineup is somewhat shabby.

However, the Lakers start well every time. Kobe Bryant has an aura when he is on the court, not just because of his strength. Xiang Chu can feel the oppression he exudes when he sits below.

This is the superstar, and Xiang Chu yearns for it.

Both Bryant and Gasol started off well, but the Bulls had more offensive points.

The other three Lakers starters really don't have much chance to perform on the court. The Bulls have a lot of players and are known for their defense. They don't even have many chances to shoot.

It's better when he comes off the bench. Steve Blake is actually more suitable for Kobe on the offensive end. His shooting touch is slightly better, but he may not be as good as Lao Yu on the defensive end.

During the rotation period, the trouble encountered by the guards is not very big, but the inside line is different.

The combination of Omer Asik and Taj Gibson is not much worse than the main force, and Xiang Chu's partner Murphy feels not as strong.

Mike Brown is very worried, the Lakers' bench is really weak.

However, Xiang Chu's performance was a bit unexpected. Surrounded by two big men, he still protected the rebounds continuously. He felt like a veteran on the court and was not absent at all.

Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau stood on the sidelines and spread his hands. This is not the scene he wants to see.

He couldn't help clapping his hands on the sidelines, "Rebound, rebound, gentlemen..."

The Bulls are also aiming to hit the championship this season. If they can't even deal with the crippled Lakers, then that's nothing.

The point is, Xiang Chu's way of grabbing rebounds is too good. He basically judges in advance. Is it too exaggerated to let two players stare at him, one blocking the other? After all, Xiang Chu doesn't participate much. attack.

But after the main force came on the field, Rose made consecutive hits, and no one could stop them. The score that the Lakers worked so hard to maintain was overtaken in just a few minutes.

The point is, Kobe Bryant actually made consecutive mistakes.

Xiang Chu began to doubt again now, didn't the team set off smoke bombs, and Kobe was really injured?But it feels a little different.

The atmosphere was a bit tense during the halftime break. Both preseason games collapsed in the third quarter. Bynum couldn't play today. Mike Brown said he was not nervous.

"It's okay, I'll take care of everything." Kobe said seriously.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Kobe had a dunk when he came on the court. There was no such thing as an injury.

Rose also started to fight back and scored against Kobe, but basketball is a five-person sport, and other players on the Lakers side performed better.

The reason why the Bulls only have Rose as an absolute All-Star now is because other people are not stable enough, and they can't stand up to help in this kind of tough battle.

The Lakers took the opportunity to catch up with the score, and then Kobe made consecutive shots with penalties to help the team overtake their opponents.

The Bulls requested a timeout and began to rotate to try to change.

The Lakers also dispatched troops. Bynum still got more opportunities without playing Xiang Chu, and his playing time was a few minutes earlier.

Someone in the audience knew him and shouted his name.

Xiang Chu was so excited that he jumped up from Asik not long after he played, and directly reached out his hand on his head to make up for a teammate's missed shot.

Xiang Chu waved his fist. He has become more and more familiar with the NBA arena. Putting up the basket is a very advantageous offensive method for him, which is much simpler than making moves after receiving the ball.

His value does not lie in scoring. He is just a rookie who has just entered the NBA. With a basic salary, he must have a good mentality and don't think that he can do everything from the beginning.

Show your own characteristics first, and then gain a firm foothold in the team.

"In the fourth quarter, the Bulls replaced pitcher Kyle Korver, but they still haven't improved on the offensive end. If they don't catch Kobe to get back the score when he rests, it will be difficult for them."

"Amidst the cheers from the home fans, the Lakers players fought hard. Their rookie Xiang Chu supported the team's inside line during the rotation period... Nice, Xiang Chu made another tip-up, and his rebound was already on the line Double, the lead of the Lakers also came to 10 points."
