That game was truly breathtaking! The San Antonio Spurs faced off against the Philadelphia 76ers on the road, and it turned out to be a real drama with twists and turns, leaving almost no dull moments. What stands out the most is the 20-year-old Victor Wembanyama, who did something unprecedented on the court, easily overpowering Joel Embiid and incidentally setting a new NBA record! This game was like a hardcore basketball movie, leaving all the spectators in awe, unable to help but give their thumbs up to Wembanyama. The match started with both teams playing fiercely. The Spurs challenged the 76ers away from home, with an atmosphere so tense it felt like it could explode, as neither team wanted to give up easily. However, no one expected that the protagonist of this game would be a 20-year-old young man, Victor Wembanyama! As soon as he stepped onto the court, he was like a godsend, completely disorienting the entire 76ers team, especially Embiid, who became his backdrop! Firstly, it must be said that the referee for this game, Schroeder, the female NBA referee, gave everyone a lesson on how to stir up controversy right at the beginning. Look, Draymond Green received two technical fouls due to emotional excitement at the start, logically speaking, he should have been directly ejected from the game, but guess what? One of the technical fouls was revoked, and Green was called back to the court to continue the melee! This move was both dramatic and confusing, making people scratch their heads. As for Wembanyama, his flopping…

The Lakers defeated the Kings at home with a score of 132-122, completing a sweep this season. It must be said that the Lakers gave the Kings an opportunity. When James was present, DeRozan was suppressed by his bloodline. In this game, James was absent due to illness, and DeRozan went on a shooting spree, scoring 25 points with 12 out of 17 shots, 6 rebounds, and 7 assists, but they still lost. We can only say that you were given a chance, but you didn't make use of it. So far, the Kings have suffered six consecutive losses with a record of 13 wins and 19 losses, making them the team with the most significant decline in the West this year. Why don't we mention the Pelicans? It's because Zion and Ingram are both injured, so they have an excuse. The Timberwolves have also declined, but their record is at least 16 wins and 14 losses, ranking eighth in the West. If the Timberwolves make a strong comeback later in the season, they might climb up the rankings. However, the Kings have already lost their initiative. The key issue is that the Kings are the only team from last season's strong teams that remained healthy and intact yet had a terrible record. With players like Fox, Sabonis, and the addition of DeRozan, along with Keegan Murray's ability to attack, this lineup should not have placed the Kings twelfth in the West. Last season, the Kings had a record of 19 wins and 13 losses in their first 32 games,…

Currently, the CBA regular season is in full swing, with exciting matches that are hard to keep up with. During the offseason, the Beijing men's basketball team became the biggest beneficiary, spending a huge sum of money to acquire Zhou Qi, the top domestic star in the CBA, and subsequently securing an All-Star-level guard, Chen Yingjun. It can be said that the goal for the new season is very clear: to win the championship. Indeed, in the first stage of the competition, Beijing showed great competitiveness and even managed to stabilize at the top of the CBA standings. However, recently, Beijing's performance has been average, suffering two consecutive defeats before this. On one hand, Beijing's three foreign players have faced targeted defense, making it difficult for them to score or connect the team as effectively as before. On the other hand, Zhou Qi has recently failed to provide support for the team. It must be said that Zhou Qi's form has significantly declined since joining Beijing this season. So far, Zhou Qi has only played 7 games for Beijing, with his average statistics dropping to 12.9 points and 6.6 rebounds. This is unacceptable, both in terms of statistics and playing time. Especially now, Zhou Qi's body seems to be made of glass. Last season, during the playoff match between Guangdong and Liaoning, due to a confrontation with Morand, Zhou Qi's back injury recurred, which directly caused Guangdong's efforts for the entire season to go down the drain. The back injury also kept Zhou Qi out for 177 days. After joining…

Some are born in Rome, while others spend their entire lives unable to reach it. Some always find ways to ride the waves and reach Rome! In life, success is fleeting, but failure is the main theme. However, how one faces failure distinguishes different types of people: some are knocked down by failure, while others get up and continue moving forward. The NBA is a world of survival of the fittest, where prodigies like LeBron James and Victor Wembanyama, who peak upon their debut, are few and far between. Most stars need the right time, place, and people to truly shine, enduring numerous challenges before they can defy fate and become true winners of fame and fortune, such as Nikola Jokic, who went from a second-round pick to an MVP, champion, and Finals MVP, writing the most magnificent tale of overcoming adversity! There is another star in the league who doesn't believe in fate and refuses to give up, being only one big contract away from becoming a winner in life! Jonathan Kuminga was born in Goma, a war-torn border town in Congo. Kuminga once said: "If many players had gone through what I've been through, they would have given up basketball or even needed psychological counseling, but these things don't affect me; they are the continuous source of my motivation!" From learning to play basketball by watching Kobe Bryant's highlights to giving up college to represent Ignite in the G League, from joining the Golden State Warriors, the reigning champions, as the No. 7 overall pick in the 2021…

Surprise Upset! Curry 22 for 9, Durant 31 points + 6 turnovers, both unexpectedly injured and withdrawn, Warriors successfully avenge By Lao Kankanqiu | Edited by Lao Kankanqiu On December 29th, Beijing time, the NBA 2024-25 season regular season welcomes a focus match in the Western Conference, with the Golden State Warriors hosting the Phoenix Suns back-to-back. This is the second encounter between the two teams this season. In the previous match, the Suns defeated the Warriors by 8 points, slightly taking the upper hand. Interestingly, the Warriors have faced Pacific Division teams with a record of 0 wins and 5 losses, without a single victory, including 0-3 against the Clippers, 0-1 against the Lakers, and 0-1 against the Suns, which is indeed somewhat restrained. More difficult is that after the Warriors topped the Western Conference, they only managed to win 3 out of the next 15 games, ranking at the bottom of the league during the same period. They currently hold a total record of 15 wins and 15 losses, ranking 11th in the West, indicating that there must be major issues within the team. Combined with Curry's previous statement to the media that if playing basketball no longer brings him joy, it would be time to retire, it is clear that the Warriors' locker room is not as calm as it appears on the outside. Similarly, the Suns have also been struggling recently, much like the Warriors' trajectory. They once topped the Western Conference standings but then Durant suffered an injury, and the team's performance plummeted. They are…

On December 29th, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued with the Lakers facing the Kings at home. Although the Lakers had previously won all three encounters this season, they received bad news today as James was absent due to illness. It remains to be seen whether DeRozan's buff will disappear in James' absence. In the first quarter, the Lakers were on fire, with Davis, Christie, and Reeves almost flawless in their shooting, helping the Lakers take the lead. However, the Kings then made a small run to overtake the score. In the closing stages, the Lakers, led by Davis and Reeves, made a run to establish an 11-point lead. At the last moment, Fox assisted Ryan with a buzzer-beating alley-oop dunk, ending the first quarter with the Lakers leading 40-31. In the second quarter, the Kings took advantage of Davis' absence, continuously attacking the paint to reduce the gap to one point. After Davis returned, the Lakers briefly extended the lead again, but the Kings found their rhythm and couldn't be stopped. The two teams engaged in an offensive shootout, with the score tied or alternating leads multiple times. At halftime, the Kings led 66-65. In the third quarter, the Kings continued their second-quarter form, maintaining a slight lead. However, after leading 76-73, the Kings suddenly lost power, unable to make shots on offense. On the Lakers' side, Hachimura and Davis used their size advantage to repeatedly attack the paint for points, along with some fast breaks, resulting in a massive scoring run. The Lakers led 107-90 after three…

Lakers 132: Kings 122 - Davis Dominates with 36 Points, Reeves Contributes 20+ to Secure Home Victory In the NBA regular season on December 28, 2024, the Lakers secured a 132-122 victory over the Kings at home, achieving their second consecutive win. In this game, Davis delivered an impressive performance with 36 points, 15 rebounds, and 8 assists, playing a crucial role in the team's success. Additionally, Austin Reeves and Rui Hachimura both scored over 20 points, significantly contributing to the Lakers' triumph. On the Kings' side, DeMar DeRozan scored 23 points with 4 rebounds, De'Aaron Fox contributed 15 points with 3 rebounds, and Monk also had 13 points with 4 rebounds. Despite multiple players scoring in double figures for the Kings, they were unable to stage a comeback against the Lakers' strong offensive push. The Lakers dominated the Kings in rebounds and offensive rebounds, securing 53 and 14 respectively, while the Kings managed only 43 and 4. The Kings committed as many as 15 turnovers, leading to 22 points for the Lakers off turnovers, whereas the Lakers had just 9 turnovers, scoring 9 points off them. This match demonstrated that even without James, the Lakers could still rely on other players' outstanding performances to secure victories. Warriors 109: Suns 105 - Kuminga's Explosion, Curry's Steady Output, Durant Scores 31 in Vain The Warriors defeated the Suns with a score of 109-105. In this game, Curry scored 22 points with 6 rebounds and 6 assists, while rookie Kuminga shone with 34 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 assists, becoming the key…

NBA regular season, the Warriors defeated the Suns 109-105. In this game, the Suns' performance in the final quarter was truly terrible, as they failed to score from field play in the last two minutes, which was indeed unexpected. Under this trend, the opponent was bound to complete an overtaking, ultimately leading to a loss. After the match, they faced three pieces of bad news. The warming up of Beal in this game was a happy result. After all, he made 12 out of 24 shots, scoring 28 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists, which is not a bad efficiency. Moreover, under his leadership, the team remained in a winning position. Even though he couldn't help the team with the last shot, he could maintain such a perfect output on the offensive end, for which the team was grateful. However, Beal and Booker are completely incompatible. During Booker's absence, Beal can perform continuously. Once Booker returns, Beal will be lost. If they continue to be incompatible in the future, perhaps trading Beal is the only option, otherwise it will be difficult for the team to achieve a chemical reaction, which is a worrying aspect. In addition, Buden's coaching in this game was a complete mess, and he led to the loss. Among them, Beal was originally playing well with the bench in the final quarter, but he switched to the starters. In fact, the starters today were not playing well. If they had been brought on later, allowing Beal to continue leading the bench, at least the vitality could have…

The Phoenix Suns faced off against the Golden State Warriors in a back-to-back road game. Stephen Curry and Draymond Green returned to action for the Warriors, while the Suns were without Devin Booker due to suspension and Jusuf Nurkic was also out. The Suns' starting lineup featured Jones, Beal, Dunn, Kevin Durant, and Plumlee; the Warriors countered with Curry, Schroder, Wiggins, Green, and TJD. In the first quarter, Beal started strong with four consecutive shots made, scoring 10 points on his own. However, the Warriors had multiple players contributing, including Curry who hit a three-pointer early on. The score remained close, with the Warriors leading 15-13 at the first timeout. After the break, the Suns' offense struggled, allowing Curry to hit another three-pointer and take the lead. The Warriors then brought in Kuminga, who scored seven straight points, prompting a Suns timeout with the score at 25-18. Upon resuming play, Durant began to exert himself on both ends of the court, though the Suns unsuccessfully challenged a goaltending call. Durant continued to score through mid-range jumpers and a 2+1 play to keep the Suns in the game. The Warriors, with contributions from Kuminga and Davis, ended the quarter leading 34-27. During the second quarter, both teams rotated their lineups, with Curry and Beal leading their respective teams. Okogie had a steal and dunk, followed by Beal hitting a three-pointer, reducing the Suns' deficit to two points. After Green returned, the Warriors continued to commit turnovers, leading to Okogie drawing fouls and free throws, causing Coach Kerr to call a timeout.…

The Clippers' victory over the Warriors was witnessed by all, despite the Warriors' comeback attempt in the fourth quarter. The Clippers emerged victorious, securing their second consecutive win. With this win, the Clippers now have an 18-13 record, placing them fifth in the Western Conference. What noteworthy information has emerged following the Clippers' two consecutive victories? There is good news for Leonard, Harden has officially confirmed something, and Powell has made a request. This season's Clippers are undoubtedly one of the toughest teams in the West. They lack star players, with some having suffered injuries and missed numerous games, yet they continue to hold their ground. Winning 18 out of the first 31 games is quite impressive. It's worth considering that with Harden's strong ability to cover for his teammates and Tyronn Lue's skill in utilizing underutilized players, they have managed to establish themselves in the competitive Western Conference. As the Clippers celebrate their wins, fans eagerly await Leonard's return. What is the current situation with Leonard? There is good news: he is expected to return in next week's game. Tyronn Lue mentioned using Leonard's tactics in training to help him maintain his rhythm upon his return. However, it should be noted that Leonard will not be back for the next three games, as he will not travel with the team during the three-game road trip; his return will have to wait until the home game. Regarding Leonard's return, Harden has his own perspective. He confirmed that during the game, he discussed the matter with Leonard, who expressed his desire…
