The Golden State Warriors have recently been struggling, but it seems that a savior has arrived. Initially, it was thought that Schroder's arrival might transform the team and become a second scoring option beyond Curry. However, Schroder's arrival has unexpectedly ignited an outburst from another player. Kuminga scored 34 points in each of the last two back-to-back games, totaling 68 points and becoming the team's top offensive player. What's crucial is that in these two games, Kuminga not only scored high but also played a pivotal role in critical moments. In the previous game against the Clippers, although the Warriors didn't win, Kuminga had an outstanding performance in the final quarter, even leading the team to close the score to within five points at one stage. Kuminga's performance surprised many fans, including today's game where he also stepped up to save the team in the final moments, a role that was previously often played by Curry. After today's game, Green frankly admitted that they will take Kuminga as the core going forward, and it remains to be seen what kind of performance he will deliver next. This is actually a turning point for the Warriors. Kuminga's consecutive two games with 34 points demonstrate his potential to become a superstar, which may have been lacking due to insufficient shooting opportunities and a lack of tactical status centered around him. If Kuminga can score high in a game and help the team win, then he has the qualifications to become the future leader of the Warriors. In fact, the Warriors' tactical status…

Whoever said Kawhi would return around Christmas, please step forward and take the criticism - he has already announced that he will be out for the season in 2024. The good news is that according to American media reports, Kawhi aims to return on January 5th next year, in the Clippers' home game against the Hawks. Kawhi has completed the team's 5v5 training, which indicates that his return is imminent. Without Kawhi, the Clippers have managed to achieve an 18-13 record and rank fifth in the Western Conference so far this season. Once their star player returns and they enter their complete form, won't they just take off? It's worth noting that as the Clippers rose to fifth in the West, the Warriors dropped to 11th in the West. In the first 15 games of the season, the Warriors could still rank first in the West with a record of 12 wins and 3 losses, but in the last 15 games, they only managed 3 wins and 12 losses. However, the more they lose, the faster the Warriors will seek a third star player, and they are very hopeful of leading the first major trade that will shock the entire league this season. Sorry, but the Heat recently made it clear that they will not trade Butler, so the Warriors have to look elsewhere. To get back to the main point, Kawhi's return will quickly enhance the Clippers' offensive capabilities. So far, they have an average score of 109.4 (22nd in the league) and an offensive efficiency of 110.7 (21st),…

On December 26th, the Christmas Day game was a feast tailor-made for fans. The Golden State Warriors hosted the Los Angeles Lakers in a match that was intense, fast-paced, and full of dramatic twists. Ultimately, the Lakers managed to secure a narrow victory over the Warriors with a buzzer-beater by Reeves, winning 115-113. The game was described as being so thrilling that it felt like life was on the line with every minute. The drama of the match was compared to a Hollywood blockbuster. Curry of the Warriors continued to carry the team with his individual brilliance, while James of the Lakers, despite his age, still exerted a strong influence. The most exciting moment came when Reeves made the decisive layup that pushed the game to its climax. The game's drama was said to be enough to keep you awake all night, replaying it in your mind. The game process started with the Warriors playing aggressively from the beginning, with Wiggins scoring 10 points in the first quarter, catching the Lakers off guard. However, the Lakers did not panic. Schroder hit three-pointers one after another, helping the Lakers stabilize the situation. Despite Wiggins' impressive performance, the Lakers quickly adjusted their defense, managed to stabilize the situation, and tied the score. The end of the first quarter is crucial. Although the Warriors once took the lead, the Lakers did not collapse. Both sides ended the first quarter with a draw at 23-all, leaving the game wide open. As for Davis, his ankle sprain caused concern, but his presence on the court…

The Lakers defeated the Warriors in a thrilling Christmas Day matchup with a final score of 115-113. The game was a classic example of NBA-style drama, with intense moments that kept everyone on the edge of their seats until the very end. LeBron James showcased his all-around skills, Stephen Curry displayed his incredible three-point shooting prowess, and Austin Reaves delivered the game-winning shot. It was an exciting victory for the Lakers, with Curry also putting on a great performance, much to the delight of the fans and the financial benefit of the NBA league. Let's take a look at what media experts had to say after the game. Liaoning media commented that Reaves easily got past Wiggins in the final moments. If this were in the CBA, even if Wiggins scored the second-highest points for the Warriors in this game, it would be useless, and he would surely face harsh criticism. Li Ke did not play a single minute, leaving us to wonder if Coach Kerr of the Warriors would receive backlash on social media, or if anyone would feel sympathy for Li Ke. Curry went all out today, making incredible three-point shots. It's truly a blessing to witness such experienced players giving their all on the court. Overall, the game was incredibly exciting, with both James and Curry, the "veteran warriors" on the court, delivering outstanding performances. The Warriors executed excellent sideline ball cooperation, creating an opportunity for Curry to make a long-range three-pointer, which tied the score. However, in the final 6.3 seconds, Reaves made his move, breaking…

The Lakers really had their fans on the edge of their seats during this Christmas Day game, ultimately securing a narrow 115-113 victory over the Golden State Warriors thanks to LeBron James' outstanding performance. The game was a suspenseful thriller that left all Lakers fans ecstatic with its outcome. Despite the Warriors' formidable three-point shooting, they were unable to overtake the Lakers in the final two minutes at their home court, watching helplessly as the Lakers claimed victory. This wasn't just an ordinary matchup; it's worth noting that James not only helped the Lakers win but also made history by becoming the first player in NBA history to score over 500 points in Christmas Day games! Doesn't that sound unbelievable? 500 points! You heard that right. This isn't an achievement that can be accomplished easily; it's proof of James' unique status and historical influence in Christmas Day games. Who would have thought that such a tense and intense game would also carry a historical label? Indeed, this game wasn't just a regular confrontation; it almost became a showcase of James' personal historical moments. Looking back, the Warriors gave the Lakers a tough start to the game. After the opening tip-off, their three-point shots at home were particularly hot. It must be said that the Warriors' perimeter shooting is heart-stopping in every game. On the Lakers' side, although James is no longer young, he still controls the game rhythm with his excellent physical condition and high basketball IQ. At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers and the Warriors tied…

NBA regular season action continues, with several intense matchups taking place in the West. In the key battles: Edwards hits a buzzer-beater, the Timberwolves come back to defeat the Rockets; the Clippers beat the Warriors, with Kuminga scoring an empty 34 points and 10 rebounds; the Mavericks win against the Suns, with a full-scale brawl on the court, thus the Western Conference standings are in chaos once again: the Grizzlies surpass the Rockets, the Clippers surpass the Lakers, and the Warriors drop out of the play-in tournament area! In the playoff zone, the Thunder continue to occupy the top spot with a nine-game winning streak. The Grizzlies surpass the Rockets after defeating the Pelicans 132-124. Morant is in explosive form, shooting 8 for 11 and scoring 25 points with 7 assists, but he was hit again on his old injury, hopefully without serious consequences. Jaren Jackson scores 33 points with 6 rebounds, 4 steals, 3 assists, and 3 blocks; Bane scores 18 points with 8 assists, 4 rebounds, and 4 steals; Eddy scores 14 points with 9 rebounds and 2 blocks; and Little Pippen scores 13 points with 5 rebounds and 4 assists.

On December 28th, Beijing time, the NBA 2024-25 season regular season welcomes a focus match in the West, with the Los Angeles Clippers continuing to host the Golden State Warriors. This is the third matchup between the two teams this season, with the Clippers winning both previous encounters, showing a clear advantage. Surprisingly, after the Warriors topped the Western Conference with a record of 12 wins and 3 losses at the beginning of the season, head coach Steve Kerr made a series of questionable decisions, benching Li Kaili and consistently using a small lineup with three guards while maintaining a large rotation of 12-13 players. As a result, the team's record plummeted, with only 3 wins in their last 14 games, dropping to tenth in the West with a record of 15 wins and 14 losses, which was quite unexpected. In response, the team's star player Stephen Curry said, "For me, fun is most important; if playing basketball no longer brings me joy, it will be time for retirement!" It must be said that Curry's words also convey a sense of fatigue. However, while Curry is mentally exhausted, Harden on the Clippers is physically tired. According to Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue, although the team's star player Kawhi Leonard successfully completed a 5-on-5 training match again, he will not play in today's game and will not accompany the team on the next three away trips. It must be said that if Leonard does not return, Harden will still have to lead the team alone, facing endless double teams from opponents,…

The first coach to be fired in the 2024-25 season has been announced, and it's not who you might expect. It's not Rivers, Redick, or Kerr, but rather Mike Brown of the Kings! It seems that Brown is always on the verge of being fired. The team announced Brown's dismissal just before boarding a flight to Los Angeles for an away game, with assistant coach Doug Christie temporarily taking over the head coaching position. Prior to this, Brown had just completed a training session and conducted a 15-minute interview, only to find out he wouldn't be needed to fly to Los Angeles after all. Everything happened so suddenly! During his interview, Brown said, "When you're in trouble, you'll know who will help you." Just five minutes after saying this, news of his dismissal came through. So, the answer is: no one helps you. This summer, the Kings renewed Brown's contract for three years at $30 million (the contract expires in the 2026-27 season), so even though they've let him go, they still have to pay him. At the time of the renewal, it was said that Brown had broken the Kings' 20-year curse. Before Brown, the Kings hadn't renewed a coach's contract in 20 years; every coach either served one term or was dismissed before their contract expired. However, this curse seems to have only been half-averted, as Brown's dismissal still came about. Recalling the 2022-23 season, when Brown left his assistant coaching position with the Warriors to join the Kings, he was still considered a sweetheart. That year, Brown…

NBA regular season is in full swing, and the game between the Clippers, who were sitting at home, and the Warriors has concluded. Prior to this game, the Clippers were ranked seventh in the West, while the Warriors were tenth. With Curry and Green absent from this game, the final result was as expected, with the Clippers securing victory and a winning streak, rising to fifth in the Western Conference standings. 26+17+18! The Clippers' winning streak rises to fifth, and the data doesn't lie about who the key to victory is. At the start of the game, both teams had poor shooting and could only score through consecutive attacks on the inside. As the game progressed, the Warriors found their rhythm slightly from beyond the arc, ending the first quarter with a two-point lead. In the second quarter, the game remained close, with the score seesawing. The Clippers had multiple players contributing offensively, while the Warriors seemed somewhat sluggish, trailing by six points at halftime. After the break, the Warriors' offense did not recover but instead declined further, with frequent turnovers and missed shots. The Clippers played steadily, with many players contributing offensively, and they extended their lead into double digits after consecutive scoring runs. When everyone thought the game was without suspense, a turning point arrived. In the fourth quarter, Kuminga scored consecutively, leading the Warriors on an 18:4 run to narrow the gap and bring back the suspense. In the crucial moment, Harden took charge of scoring and assisting, helping the team stabilize the situation and ultimately maintain…
