The Minnesota Timberwolves lost to the Los Angeles Lakers from afar and tasted their seventh defeat of the season.
The Timberwolves did not have a good record. They started 8 games and only won two games. Counting today, they still only won two games...
120 to 112.
On the Timberwolves side, Wiggins had the highest score. This guy actually played really well in this game. He made 14 of 21 shots, got 47 points, 3 assists, and 4 rebounds. He made 22 free throws and hits. 17 times.
Next is Towns, who scored 22 points, 12 rebounds, and 2 assists. The two top picks combined for 69 points, 16 rebounds, and 5 assists. They performed very well.
It can be seen from the game that the Timberwolves actually only lost 8 points.
And the Lakers here Xu Xuan scored another 50+!
Score 50+ for the third time this season!
52 points, 10 assists, 8 rebounds, 2 steals!
It is still a double-double of 50+.
Seeing Xu Xuan's data, Wiggins shook his head...
It's not better than... He didn't talk about anything else in this game. He really worked hard in scoring, or tried his best, and he felt very good in this game, shooting 17 of 21 and shooting percentage. 66.7%, 40% three-pointers.
But in this way, the score is still not as high as Xu Xuan.
Moreover, he could clearly feel that if he hadn't scored so many points, Xu Xuan would not have scored so many points. Xu Xuan would have been aroused by him to win.
Wiggins expressed helplessness about this. He really doesn't have any disgust with Xu Xuan now. He is just a salted fish. He can turn over when he is fine, but you have to say who he is with to "serve a dish". Then he just pretended to be dead...
No need, the stable contract is not small, the data is also very good, why bother with that...
...
The Lakers win another win!
It's already eleven consecutive victories.
The three back-to-back away games did not stop the Lakers' winning streak, but strengthened it.
The fans of Zijin Dynasty were moved and wanted to cry.
Not easy!
For so many years, it has been for so many years, the Lakers have been playing bad, and now they have finally seen the sun.
Eleven consecutive victories.
Now it’s only one game away from the TNT trio’s prediction. Kenny Smith said that the Lakers had a maximum of twelve consecutive victories, while O’Neal said that they had a 15-game winning streak. Now they are getting closer and closer to Kenny Smith’s prediction. Up.
As a "party", the Nets' mood is a bit complicated.
Their Nets do not have much popularity in the United States. They have been flat this season, but they did not expect that the first time they "famous" was because of their opponents...
How uncomfortable...
The Nets have changed a lot this year.
Mainly their boss, the great Russian businessman Mikhail Plokhov, is really not bad for money.
He only spent 200 million US dollars when he bought it in 2001, and now the market value of the Nets can be said to have increased by almost 10 times in just a few years.
This guy can make a profit, so in the free market, he is merciless.
The first is Jeremy Lin.
Jeremy Lin will join the Nets in the new season. The two sides have reached a three-year contract with a total value of 36 million. The structure of this contract is 2+1, and the third year is a player option.
Prior to this, the Nets were interested in Jeremy Lin and launched a "very sincere" pursuit, and most people believed that Jeremy Lin should be the Nets' starting point guard for the new season.
Because last season the Nets' starting point guard was Jarrett Jack, but it has been cut.
Jack has played in the NBA for 10 seasons and has played for the Trail Blazers, Pacers, Raptors, Pelicans, Warriors, Cavaliers, and Nets. He averaged 11.1 points, 2.9 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game in his career. Beginning in the middle and late stages of his career, Jack mainly played on the bench, and was often able to make eye-catching performances. He was also dubbed by fans as "the substitute for the most preemptive point guard job".
Jack played 32 games for the Nets last season, starting all 32 games, averaging 12.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 7.4 assists, and 1.1 steals per game.
In January of this year, Jack suffered a serious injury in a game against the Celtics. He tore the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee and also torn his meniscus, leading to early reimbursement for the season. His contract with the Nets would have expired in one season, and the salary was about 6.3 million US dollars, but it was not completely guaranteed, of which 5 million was a guaranteed salary. In the summer, as the deadline for the buyout contract approached, the Nets had been peddling Jack, but they were unsuccessful, and they eventually cut him off.
His layoff, the new season is almost certain that Jeremy Lin will serve as the team's starting point guard.
Jeremy Lin left the Lakers last summer and finally chose to join the Hornets, and signed a two-year contract worth 4.2 million, of which the second year is a player option. Due to his good performance last season, Jeremy chose to jump out of his contract decisively this summer to test the player market. For the Hornets, the team was under heavy pressure this summer, including important roles such as Batum, Courtney Lee, Marvin Williams and Jefferson, who have all become free agents. Prior to this, the Hornets had renewed Batum's contract at a price of 120 million yuan in 5 years.
And now Jeremy Lin chose to sign with the Nets, it is also reasonable. First of all, the Hornets did not choose to contact the book writer at the first time. Second, even if he stays in the Hornets, he will continue to serve as Kemba Walker's substitute. Although Jeremy did not mind this last season and repeatedly expressed his liking for the Hornets, he was finally moved by the Nets.
"The journey will continue, thank you for the new chapter in life."
#God is so beautiful"
On his Twitter, Jeremy Lin wrote, and PS posted a composite photo of him wearing the Nets uniform.
Interestingly, joining the Nets means Jeremy Lin will return to New York City. And when you made his debut and became famous, it was New York. In the 2011-12 season, Jeremy Lin set off a whirlwind of Lin in New York City and became famous in one fell swoop, and then Morey won him with a poison contract. Now returning to New York and joining a rival in the same city in New York, people will feel how impermanent the world is.
Jeremy Lin played 78 games in the regular season last season, averaging 11.7 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3 assists per game. He played in 7 games in the playoffs, averaging 12.4 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game. This performance greatly increased his value. . In the early morning, many reporters pointed out that his new contract should be in the range of 13-14 million. As a result, the difference is not far.
In addition to Jeremy Lin, the 2013 NBA draft pick Anthony Bennett has reached a two-year basic salary contract with the Nets.
As the 2013 NBA draft pick, Bennett has only 128 NBA regular season experience, and averaged only 12.8 minutes per game, with 4.2 points and 3.1 rebounds. Bennett played for the Cavaliers, Timberwolves and Raptors for three years.
In the 2015-16 season, Bennett ushered in the opportunity to sign with his hometown team the Raptors. The outside world originally thought he could usher in a rebound, but the reality is very different. This season, Bennett only played 19 regular season games for the Raptors, averaging only 4.4 minutes of playing time, 1.5 points and 1.2 rebounds per game.
While playing for the Raptors, Bennett was also delegated by the team, setting a record for this, becoming the highest ranked player delegated by the team in NBA history. In the end, Bennett could not escape the fate of being cut by the Raptors. Now, he finally ushered in the opportunity to stand on the NBA arena again.
In addition to Bennett, the Nets also signed guard Randy Foye with a one-year contract. The 6-foot-4 Foye is a combo guard. As the seventh pick in the first round of the 2006 NBA Draft, he played for the Timberwolves, Wizards, Clippers, Jazz, Nuggets, and Thunder.
In a total of 683 games played, he averaged 26.3 minutes of playing time, 10.8 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game. Foye was traded to the Thunder by the Nuggets last season. During the Thunder, he averaged 5.6 points and 1.8 assists in 21.2 minutes per game. In the new season, he will become Jeremy Lin's right-hand man in the back line of the Nets.
In addition, "Diamond" Scola also joined the Nets.
Scola, 36, was selected by the Spurs with the 55th overall pick in the second round in 2002. But because the Spurs were not in a hurry to bring him to the NBA, it was not until Mosaic exchanged his signing rights in 2007 that the 27-year-old Scola was brought to the team. Scola has been the main force since the middle of the first year, and completed a contract extension with Mosaic in the summer of 2010. During the five seasons of Mosaic, Scola played 386 times for Mosaic, including 343 starts. Averaged 14.5 points and 7.7 rebounds per game.
But in the summer of 2012, in order to make room for Howard, Scola was pardoned by Mosaic, and then the Sun claimed his contract. A year later, he was traded to the Pacers by the Suns, and after the Pacers worked hard for two years, last summer, Scola signed with the Raptors for 3 million a year. This year, he made 76 appearances for the Raptors, all starting. Playing, in 21.5 minutes of playing time can contribute 8.7 points and 4.7 rebounds, of which the three-pointers hit 40.4%.
Although he is old, Scola's outstanding basketball IQ and gorgeous basketball skills still enable him to play as an immediate combat force, and his humble temperament can also serve as a big brother to boost the morale of young players.
Signing Scola makes up for the stability factor of experience and the locker room.
It is worth mentioning that as early as the summer of 2010, the Nets reported a high-value contract to Scola. Unfortunately, Scola chose to renew the contract with Mosaic’s
salary reduction
, and the total amount reached 47 million in 5 years. It is conceivable that the Nets gave the contract at that time, and this time it was a long-cherished wish. Six years later, the Nets finally got the veteran.
What's more interesting is that Scola, a veteran, has worked with Dayao, Xu Xuan, and now Jeremy Lin. He has cooperated with the Chinese players who are now or once "shoulders" in the league.
At the same time, Jazz's free agent Booker also reached a signing agreement with the Nets. His contract is basically two years and a total value of 18 million US dollars.
The 28-year-old Booker has played in the NBA for 6 seasons, can serve as a power forward, small forward, played for the Wizards, Jazz, career averages of 6.5 points and 5.2 rebounds. He played a total of 79 games with the Jazz last season, averaging 20.7 minutes, contributing 5.9 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.1 assists.
The Nets have been very active in the free agency market this summer. They have previously won Jeremy Lin with a three-year $36 million contract. In the current severe inflation environment, these signings by the Nets seem to have been spent. Very cost-effective, it seems that they are trying to get the team back on the right track in the new season.
...
The Lakers play at home.
The Nets had 4 wins and 6 losses in the previous 10 games, which is not too good.
However, in Xu Xuan’s memory, the ten games at the beginning of the season are regarded as the Nets’ countless outstanding records this season... They began to lose ground in the later stages, and they did not win a few games in total. ...
On November 15th, at 7 pm, the game was played at Staples Arena.
The Nets have not yet begun to play badly, so the starting fives are the strongest in their team.
It's just that Jeremy Lin was not in the starting lineup because of the strain on the left leg of Jeremy Lin. Xu Xuan remembered that in his previous life, Jeremy Lin played more than 30 games this season, not many and not much gold.
The game ended in a victory for the Lakers... The Nets lineup was not very good. A group of young players with low potential, except for Daluo and Bogdanovic, everyone else performed mediocre.
101 vs. EbookFREE.me~ the Lakers won by 19 points!
And Xu Xuan scored a triple-double again in this game, with 29 points, 14 assists, 11 rebounds, 2 steals, and 1 block!
29+14+11+2+1!
The most important thing is that Xu Xuan made zero mistakes in this game!
The positive and negative values are as high as +20!
A batch of horrible efficiency!
The Lakers also won twelve consecutive victories cleanly under his tandem.
And then... the most critical part comes-
The Lakers vs. Spurs!
And, the next four games are against the Bulls at home, the Thunder at home, the Warriors away, and the Warriors at home!
In other words, in these five games, the Lakers will play two Warriors, one circus, one Thunder and one Bull!
They are all strong teams in the league, playoff-level teams, and the Warriors and Spurs are among the top teams in the league.
According to Kenny Smith’s previous prediction, the Lakers’ winning streak is most likely to end in the Spurs’ hands.
"We have always been wondering where the Lakers team is strong. If you want to say that they have a strong lineup, Xu Xuan is the only one. How strong can it be? No matter how strong he is, he can't do one-on-five.
What are their strengths? That's right, it's their role players, their role players are very strong, very strong, very strong, completely beyond our expectations.
Russell, Louis, Nick, Barnes... Even the seemingly naive Ingram is actually not as weak as the young players of the same period.
Rather than saying that Xu Xuan is too strong, it is better to say that Xu Xuan successfully stimulated their potential and fighting spirit and allowed them to perform very well.
I'm a Kobe fan, but I have to be honest, this is really different from Kobe's style of play. Kobe is strong by himself, and Xu Xuan leads his teammates to get better. This is the difference. "
