On January 6th, Beijing time, the Los Angeles Lakers narrowly missed victory, chasing points to the end but ultimately lost to the Rockets. After the game, Redick directly expressed his anger, making it clear that everyone on the Lakers should be criticized except for James. Facing the Rockets, the Lakers launched a super comeback after trailing by as many as 22 points, eventually closing the gap to just 4 points, but they still lost. The Rockets won largely due to their rebounding advantage, with a difference of 10 rebounds between the two teams, mainly in offensive rebounds where the Rockets grabbed 18. After the game, Redick was furious and directly criticized the entire team, saying, "We can't even grab defensive rebounds." How could the Lakers not lose when they allowed the Rockets to grab 18 offensive rebounds? This is equivalent to giving the Rockets 18 more scoring opportunities. In fact, the Lakers had a higher shooting percentage than the Rockets, but the Rockets took 21 more shots, aggressively grabbing rebounds and immediately attacking, continuously shooting and grabbing rebounds. It was this tactic that overwhelmed the Lakers. However, who exactly was Redick criticizing when he said the team couldn't grab defensive rebounds? Obviously, he was referring to the other nine Lakers players besides James. There is a very direct statistic: in this game, the Lakers had 29 defensive rebounds, of which James grabbed 12 alone. He had a total of 13 rebounds, 12 of which were defensive rebounds. Therefore, when Redick said there was a problem with our defensive rebound protection,…

In the home game against the Hawks, LeBron James delivered a historic performance, not only leading the Lakers to a 119-102 victory but also achieving a milestone by surpassing Jordan's record, which sent the Staples Center into a frenzy. James played an extremely efficient game, making 13 out of 20 shots, including 2 out of 5 three-pointers, scoring 30 points, 3 rebounds, and 8 assists. This performance brought his career total of 30+ point games to 563, officially surpassing Jordan's record. This record-breaking moment was not a fluke; from the moment James entered the league, he has demonstrated his dominance on the offensive end. He consistently scores through fast breaks and drives, maintaining a stable and efficient performance over the years. James' performance in this game was impressive; he scored continuously through fast breaks and drives in the first half, and in the second half, he hit consecutive three-pointers from outside, helping the team maintain a lead. The breakthrough of this record makes one marvel at James' endurance and dominance; in his 21st season, he still maintains such an outstanding state, which is a miracle in itself. Anthony Davis showcased his versatility in this game, although his shooting percentage wasn't particularly high, his performance in rebounding and defense was outstanding, finishing with a comprehensive stat line of 18 points, 19 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 steals. In the first half, Davis became the most stable scorer for the Lakers, with a high efficiency in strong inside play, and he also did an excellent job in rim protection and rebounding on…

Xinjiang suffered a crushing defeat on the road against Liaoning, revealing the team's true situation, as fans accurately pointed out! Netizens keenly pointed out that Xinjiang Men's Basketball's foreign aid, Higens, has relatively weak individual attacking abilities, and the tall foreign aid is not tall enough, lacking in under-the-basket deterrence. As a center, "Short Neck" only grabbed one rebound, which can only indicate that his core strength and physical confrontation ability are not enough for this level of competition; if your core strength is not good, you can't hold your position, and if you can't hold your position, you won't be able to grab rebounds. The three foreign aids of Xinjiang Men's Basketball can only play well when things are going their way, but they falter when facing adversity, missing shots and making many turnovers, especially Peterson who is even worse. Liaoning played in their familiar rhythm in this game, with Xinjiang being stifled by Liaoning's targeted defensive tactics. This Xinjiang team will find it difficult to compete with Liaoning in the playoffs; their young players are quite good but lack experience. They lack top-tier foreign aid to lead the charge, and Xinjiang should not be short of money; they should spend money to upgrade their foreign aid. When the points gap is large, everyone on Xinjiang's team has a bad mentality, becoming anxious, losing technical balance, missing shots, and making many turnovers. Xinjiang has invested a lot over the years, but their foreign aid has never been ideal. In the championship year, a Blatche and a small foreign aid…

These three shooting percentages are all the first in the CBA league, who can be convinced? You think, how could the team's scoring not be high, relying on such accurate shooting, how could they not put pressure on their opponents? To be honest, Chouzhou Men's Basketball can achieve such a high shooting percentage, which is definitely not achieved by a single player fighting alone, but the result of the whole team working together. Look, the players cooperate so well that they are like brothers, and when attacking, everyone takes turns to attack, somewhat like an invincible combination of passing and receiving the ball. Every attack is very particular, not simply grabbing the ball and shooting, but through continuous running and screening, finally finding the most suitable shooting opportunity. This kind of team basketball style is not like traditional one-on-one battles, but more like a precise machine, with each part accurately cooperating, ultimately achieving such efficient scoring. Some netizens commented: If you talk about what is most attractive about Zhejiang Chouzhou Men's Basketball now, it…
