The Lakers faced off against the Wizards at home, with the Lakers starting lineup consisting of Reeves, Christie, Hachimura, James, and Davis; while the Wizards started with Carrington, Poole, Culver, Kuzma, and Sar. In the first quarter, the Wizards surprisingly took the lead as visitors. After Poole scored a three-pointer and completed a 2+1 play, Davis responded with a three-pointer and a mid-range shot, allowing the Lakers to take the lead. Kuzma also scored consecutively, and the two teams exchanged points, entering a timeout with a score of 12-13. Returning to the game, Davis sent a big block on defense, and Smith hit a three-pointer, prompting the Wizards to call a timeout with a score of 15-18. After the timeout, Smith hit another three-pointer, and the Wizards responded with a three-pointer. Davis and Hayes took turns dunking, and after James scored on a breakthrough, the Lakers extended their lead. However, the Wizards quickly responded with a 5-0 run to stop the bleeding. Reeves was fouled on a buzzer-beating three-pointer, but the Wizards successfully challenged the call, ending the first quarter with the Lakers leading 29-23 by six points. In the second quarter, during the rotation phase, James came in and immediately hit a three-pointer, then assisted Reeves in hitting another three-pointer. However, the Wizards quickly responded with a small scoring spree, with Kuzma hitting a three-pointer to close the gap to 33-36, only three points behind, forcing the Lakers to call a timeout. Returning to the game, James led a 9-2 scoring run to re-establish the lead, but Culver's 2+1…

Green and Amen are the Jordan Pippen of the Rockets. Amen activates Green, achieving mutual success. I once mentioned that Amen's ultimate template is Batman Pippen, a very versatile small forward. Currently, Amen is indeed playing outstandingly, but what I didn't expect was that after Amen started, there was a very good chemistry between him and Green. Recently, Green has been playing exceptionally well. Honestly speaking, Green's style of play is not the same as Shen Jing's, so they can partner up, but the effect is not always the best. Additionally, the original starting player, Xiao Jiali, is a stationary high-range shooter with much weaker ball-handling skills compared to Amen. Therefore, with Amen in the starting lineup, it's like the Rockets have three ball-handling points: Fan Jordan, Shen Jing, and Amen. This allows Green to play very flexibly, moving around screens, breaking through, shooting threes, and easily getting the ball. It leverages Green's agility and speed advantages, while Amen's cuts inside, defense, and ball-handling skills are also played excellently. Therefore, without Xiao Jiali playing, it actually activated Green. Nerve didn't perform well today, let's adjust for the next game! Shen Jing had a poor performance throughout today's game, feeling not very excited, which might be due to his low shooting percentage! Green made a 3+1 god-level shot but remained expressionless, as if something was on his mind! First of all, I want to clarify that I'm not slandering Shen Jing; Shen Jing and Green have a great relationship, and after Green fell during the game, Shen Jing was the first…

Recently, Larsa Pippen, the ex-wife of Scottie Pippen, updated her personal social media platform with a series of photos taken while sailing on a yacht during the New Year's celebration. As everyone knows, Larsa and Pippen have been together for many years and have several children. Their youngest daughter, Sophia, is now 16 years old and has grown into a tall and slender young lady. She was seen wearing a black tight-fitting one-piece dress, with heavy makeup, increasingly resembling her mother Larsa in her heyday. Sophia has always been a highly anticipated second-generation star. At a young age, she has shown signs of early maturity, often accompanying her mother to various high-society events, each time impressing people. Although Sophia has not yet reached adulthood, she already exudes a very feminine charm, and her photos on social media mainly feature a sexy style. It can be seen that this young girl has laid the groundwork for a modeling career. After all, she possesses a natural height advantage, coupled with Larsa's influence in fashion, Sophia is indeed well-suited for this path. Old NBA fans will certainly be familiar with the name Pippen. He and Larsa were once a celebrity couple with a lot of attention. They had a good relationship and four children, but they eventually parted ways amicably. Later, Larsa continued to date younger men, even being with Marcus, the son of Michael Jordan, which made her ex-husband Pippen feel very awkward and dissatisfied. However, since they are no longer together, both sides cannot interfere with each other's lives and choices.…

Congratulations to Rose! Bulls No. 1 jersey will be retired, becoming the 5th person in team history to receive this honor, shoulder to shoulder with Jordan and Pippen!‌ On January 5th, Beijing time, the Bulls officially announced that they will retire Derrick Rose's No. 1 jersey during the 25-26 season, with the specific date to be formally announced later. The Bulls stated, "Our No. 1 is forever from Chicago." Team President and CEO Michael Reinsdorf shared this news with Rose face-to-face in Chicago on Saturday morning, local time.

It honors those who have made outstanding contributions to the team and established a deep and lasting connection with the fans.

We are proud to add Derrick to the elite group of players - Jerry Sloan, Bob Love, Michael Jordan, and Scottie Pippen - whose jerseys have been officially retired by the Chicago Bulls."

Who is the "Queen of Social Circles" in the NBA? Unveiling the multifaceted life of Larsa Pippen What kind of woman can still be the darling of the headlines at the age of 50? Is it a top female celebrity or a super-rich person? No, it's a woman named Larsa Pippen. Her name has evolved from "the ex-wife of NBA legend Scottie Pippen" to "the top of the social circle." She has dated many NBA star players and is now even passionately dating Marcus Jordan, the son of Michael Jordan. Even more eye-catching is that her life is like a reality show; whoever sees it will exclaim: this plot beats the screenwriters of TV dramas. However, the question is, is she the representative of a free and confident modern woman, or a regular protagonist in the entertainment section? Today, let's dissect Larsa's multifaceted life together and see how this "Queen of Social Circles in the NBA" manages to navigate through complex emotional relationships and public opinion whirlpools with ease. To talk about Larsa, we must start with her marriage story. Larsa was once the wife of Scottie Pippen - one of the legendary figures in NBA history, second only to Jordan in status. Initially, her life was incredibly low-key, and she appeared more as "Pippen's wife" in the public eye: cheering on the sidelines, attending social events, playing the role of a seemingly impeccable celebrity wife. However, the trajectory of the story changed after Pippen gradually faded out of the public eye. Larsa, who used to revolve around her husband,…

The age of 35 is a difficult threshold for players to cross, either retiring or experiencing a significant decline in performance. So, how did the top three small forwards in the league, LeBron James, Scottie Pippen, and Larry Bird, fare at this age? Let's discuss it! 35-year-old LeBron James LeBron James is already 40 years old, but at 35, he was still at the peak of his game, averaging 25+8+10.2 points per game. Besides maintaining a stable scoring average, he also improved in rebounds and assists, particularly with an average of 10.2 assists per game, earning him the assist title that season. In the playoffs, James' statistics further increased, especially in scoring, averaging around 28 points per game. He led his team to victory against the Trail Blazers, Rockets, Nuggets, and ultimately defeated the Heat 4-2, securing his fourth NBA championship. He also fulfilled his wish of winning championships with different teams. 35-year-old Larry Bird Older fans will know that Larry Bird, along with Magic Johnson, dominated the NBA for an era. For Bird, 35 marked the end of his career due to physical decline, which naturally led to a sharp drop in his statistics. At 35, Bird could still average 19.4+8.5+7.2 points per game. Looking at these three stats, his scoring ability remained strong, especially considering his reliable mid-to-long-range shooting. However, due to issues with stamina and age, Bird had little running or jumping in his game at 35. This data is still commendable for Bird, who later retired due to back injuries. 35-year-old Scottie Pippen Scottie Pippen can…

Larsa's rise to fame dates back to the past. In her early years, she stepped into the NBA social circle and quickly became a focal point with her stunning appearance. At that time, at various high-end parties and fashion events, she would wear a tailored long dress, the hem gently brushing the ground, outlining her graceful curves; under her delicate makeup, her features were bright and attractive, her eyes deep and spirited, revealing charm with every glance. Her presence always filled the surrounding air with a unique allure, captivating many NBA stars. In an era when the Kardashian family had not yet reached the pinnacle of their fame, Larsa had already established herself as one of the earliest socialite representatives in the NBA. Her beauty and physique were top-notch, walking confidently and elegantly, exuding a charming aura with every move. Soon, she caught the eye of basketball superstar Scottie Pippen, and the two embarked on a romantic relationship, eventually walking down the aisle together. At their wedding, surrounded by flowers and a crowd of guests, Larsa wore a white wedding dress, smiling happily, exchanging deep gazes with Pippen and making a lifelong commitment. After marriage, she temporarily left the social scene to focus on raising her four children, leading a seemingly peaceful and warm life. However, as time passed and Pippen aged, Larsa's inner desires gradually resurfaced. She decided to make a comeback and resume her previous social life. At this point in her life, though in her forties, she was well-preserved, with hardly any signs of aging on her…

Translation of the article content: Originally, I wasn't going to continue creating content today, but I just came across an article where Pippen has a significant opinion about Lillard being included in the Top 75, stating that Lillard doesn't have the qualifications to be among the Top 75 superstars, and that Howard, Gasol, Parker, McGrady, and others are more qualified than him. Regarding this article, I will continue to express my views. I believe that in the selection of superstars, players like Lillard, Anthony Davis, Westbrook should not be included at present, and even Harden is questionable! Many of the older players should not be included either! What does it mean to be a superstar? It should be top-notch in terms of personal ability, honors, and basketball influence! Or they should be outstanding representatives of a certain position, for example, Paul is the epitome of a pure point guard. Although he doesn't have an MVP or championship, he has maintained a high level for so many years. Who doesn't think of Paul when talking about point guards?! For instance, if Rodman can be selected, why can't Howard? They both won several rebounding titles and best defense awards; it's just that Rodman has one more championship than Howard! Lillard really doesn't qualify. Looking at his scoring, he doesn't have a scoring title; in terms of leadership, he doesn't have a championship, and he hasn't even made it to the finals. There are no minor honors for him at the guard position, and his personal honors of six All-Star selections and six…
