The Lakers won, the Warriors lost, and LeBron James is still the same LeBron James, as is Stephen Curry. In the world of basketball, there are always new stories unfolding. LeBron James, a name, a legend, a game, 31 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists - this is his answer. On the stage of the Christmas Day game, he still shines, time seems to stand still for him. He remains the invincible king, dominating the court. In the first quarter, the Lakers struggled offensively, scoring only 6 points, all of which came from James. He carried the team forward, supporting the Lakers' hopes with his own strength, refusing to let them down. Without LeBron, the Lakers might have collapsed in the first quarter, which is no joke, considering the Warriors are not to be underestimated. In the second quarter, James switched to an organizing mode, dishing out three consecutive assists, revitalizing the team's offense. The Lakers went on a 16-2 run, completely turning around the game situation. This is the value of James; he can not only score but also lead his teammates, involving everyone in the game, which is what a true leader does. Consider this: a 40-year-old veteran can still perform like this, which is truly admirable. His professionalism and self-discipline are examples for us all to follow. In the second half, James was both offensive and defensive, capable of scoring and organizing, even delivering a big block, showcasing his comprehensive skills. In the crucial moments of the game, he always stood up, leading the team to victory. It's…

On December 26, 2024, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, with one of the focus matches being the Los Angeles Lakers challenging the Golden State Warriors away. In the first quarter, both sides were evenly matched, with Davis playing only 7 minutes and not returning to the court, resulting in a draw between the Lakers and the Warriors at 23:23. In the second quarter, under the leadership of James, the Lakers remained competitive throughout the game, engaging in a scoring battle. At halftime, the score was 55:52, with the Lakers leading by 3 points. In the third quarter, the Lakers maintained their good form while the Warriors appeared slightly sluggish. The Lakers won the quarter by 5 points, ending the third quarter with a score of 84:76, leading by 8 points. In the fourth quarter, the Warriors launched a counterattack and once narrowed the gap, but the Lakers managed to hold on to the lead. In the final moments of the game, the Warriors made an extreme comeback with a 7:0 run, closing the gap to 107:109. Christie made two free throws, reducing the suspense of the game, with 22.3 seconds left. Reeves hit the decisive shot, securing a 115-113 victory for the Lakers over the Warriors. James started the game for 36 minutes, shooting 12 out of 22, including 2 out of 4 from three-point range, scoring 31 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists, and 2 steals. In the absence of Davis, James took on the offensive responsibilities for the Lakers, with the 40-year-old James performing exceptionally well, handling…

The NBA regular season has reached its mid-point, and many teams in the league are considering trades. The Heat and Pacers have already made a 1-for-1 trade, with the Heat sending Thomas Bryant to the Pacers in exchange for a future second-round draft pick swap. This move aims to free up a roster spot for potential future trades and to convert two-way contracts into official ones. The Heat has been very active in the trade market recently, even openly stating that they would consider trading their star player, Butler. Last season, the Heat's performance was average, with Butler getting older, suffering from injuries, and his average stats gradually declining. There has been no repeat of last year's playoff upset against the Bucks. To ensure better future development for the team, Butler might really be traded away. Similarly, several top teams are particularly active in the trade market, eager to make significant adjustments to their rosters, with the Los Angeles Lakers being one such team. The Lakers started the season well but faltered as the schedule progressed. James, at 40 years old, is not as capable as he once was, and Davis' dominance in the paint is inconsistent. Crucially, the Lakers' role players are significantly inferior when compared to other strong teams. As a Western Conference scout said, if Reeves can be considered the Lakers' third-best player, it will be difficult for them to compete for the championship. Recently, the Lakers have also been looking for a star player to help them out. They have inquired about the cost of acquiring…

According to the latest reports from American media, the Golden State Warriors have officially announced that head coach Steve Kerr will be leaving his position. The reason behind this decision is that Kerr has gradually lost control of the locker room, with many players questioning his tactical command abilities. Not only have the players expressed their opinions on Kerr's departure, but team owner Joe Lacob also believes it is time to bring in a new coach with extensive coaching experience to lead the team forward. Lacob understands that the team needs new tactical ideas and leadership styles to overcome its current difficulties. At the same time, the Warriors are planning significant adjustments to their roster, aiming to increase the team's overall height to strengthen defensive and competitive capabilities. During Kerr's tenure, he favored recruiting shorter guards, which to some extent led to deficiencies in defense and competition for the team. To change this situation, Lacob has made it clear that he will actively seek out players with outstanding athleticism and obvious height advantages to enhance the team's interior strength. In this series of changes, Bjelica and Kuminga have been included in the Warriors' trade plan, bidding farewell to their teammate Curry. The departure of these two players marks the determination of the Warriors to restructure their lineup for the new season. The team hopes to reshape its competitiveness by introducing players who are more suitable for the team's tactical system and future development. Although this means having to part with some older players, such changes are necessary and urgent for…

The game between the Warriors and the Lakers was a thrilling encounter that lived up to everyone's expectations. It was a nail-biter that went down to the wire before a winner was decided. Both in terms of the viewing experience and the course of the game, it was a top-notch visual feast. So, from the perspective of the Warriors, what are the key points to analyze? A disgraceful defeat, who should be held responsible for the Warriors' loss? The data provides the answer, and it also reflects the best of the game's progression. Curry is rated SS-class while Kerr is B-class. For the Warriors, this was a disgraceful defeat. Some might say, "They only lost by 2 points, how can it be considered a disgraceful defeat?" It wasn't a crushing defeat. The reason it's called a disgraceful defeat is mainly because Curry's best performance in the year-end battle was wasted. Curry repeatedly brought the game back into suspense, but he couldn't stop the Lakers from responding and scoring. From this perspective, it's naturally disgraceful. So, the question arises, who should be held accountable for the Warriors losing this game? The data is the answer, and it's also the best reflection of the game's progression. The first person is Kuminga. Kuminga now plays with only recklessness left. It's not wrong for the young man to be confident, but sometimes it's misplaced. Kuminga shot 10 times and only made 4 shots, scoring 14 points and 6 rebounds, with a team-worst plus-minus of -17. It must be said that Kuminga is sometimes beyond…

According to the latest report by Shams Charania, a journalist from ESPN, the Golden State Warriors are actively seeking suitable trade partners in an effort to acquire an All-Star level partner for Stephen Curry before the trade deadline this season. The Warriors are determined to enhance their team strength. Why do I say that? Think about it, Curry is such an excellent player, but basketball is a team sport, and it's not enough to rely on just one person. It's like the basketball team in our neighborhood; there's a young man with exceptional skills, but every time they play, he's the only one performing well while his teammates don't contribute much, so the results don't improve. That's why the Golden State Warriors want to find a good helper for Curry, an All-Star level partner, which will make the team stronger and increase their chances of winning the championship. According to BR, Charania said on yesterday's "Today's NBA" program: "I've learned that the Warriors are actively looking for a star, an organizer, a scorer, someone who can play alongside Stephen Curry." This is quite normal for the Warriors to want to find a star who can partner with Curry. Think about it, a team wants to achieve good results, it can't rely on just one star. It's like our CBA's Guangdong team; Yi Jianlian was very strong when he was there, but the team also looked for other capable players to help, so that the team could be more competitive. The Warriors probably think the same way, wanting to find a…

Recently, the situation of the Golden State Warriors has been quite confusing, with the team's performance akin to a ship sailing through a storm, unsure of its direction. Once, the thought of the Splash Brothers dominating the league could ignite passion in one's heart. Back then, the Warriors played basketball as if it were a video game, with every move on the court filled with imagination and creativity, truly representing a school of play in the NBA. However, nowadays, the state of the Warriors is like a hardcore action movie suddenly turning into an art film, with a plot so slow it makes you drowsy. Especially in recent games, the Warriors' performance has been quite worrying. Take the game against the Grizzlies, for example; the Warriors' crushing defeat could serve as a textbook example, with a 51-point gap - can you believe it? This wasn't a drill; it was a real match! Throughout the process, the Warriors were like being pinned down by the Grizzlies, lacking any spirit. Both offensively and defensively, there were significant issues; the offense was like picking up a rusty weapon that couldn't break through no matter how hard they tried; defensively, there were gaping holes, with the Grizzlies' inside play virtually unimpeded, and rebounds were lost in a mess, essentially giving the opponent a gift of points. And the root of all this lies with the team's coach, Steve Kerr. Kerr once led the Warriors to break countless records and win three championship trophies, becoming a legendary figure in Golden State. Recently, however, his coaching…

The Clippers, after defeating the strong team Grizzlies, will return home to face the Warriors. Today, the Warriors have updated their player injury list, which is similar to what Kerr previously revealed about resting Curry for one game in a back-to-back situation. The Warriors have indeed chosen to rest Curry against the Clippers, citing knee tendonitis as the reason. In addition, Draymond Green is also questionable due to a back injury and is unlikely to play. As we analyzed, it seems that the Warriors will definitely rest Curry when facing the Clippers. Next up is another back-to-back, with the Warriors playing the Clippers away and then rushing back home to play the Suns. Which game should Curry rest for between the Clippers and the Suns? I think it would be the Clippers. The Clippers have been on fire recently, with Harden leading the team and turning Powell and Zubac into giants. The team's defense is also very strong with Van Gundy at the helm, and they have already double-killed the Warriors, winning with or without Curry. Considering that playing the Clippers is an away game, it would be difficult for Curry to win even if he played. It would be better to fully prepare for the Suns, especially since it's at the Warriors' home court. The Suns have not been in good form recently, with Booker continuing to rest. From the Warriors' perspective, the Suns are an easy target to handle. Of course, the Clippers also have their fair share of injuries. The official injury list for the game against…

The Grizzlies suffered a crushing defeat, losing by 51 points. Is this making people anxious, or has it finally made them realize something? According to American journalist Siegel, the Warriors are planning to trade three young players from their team: Kuminga, Moody, and Bjelica. If the Warriors had this idea during the summer offseason this year, Marquinhos would have already brought his talent to the Golden State. Speaking of Bjelica, everyone originally had high hopes for him, thinking he could perform well. This season, he's in his second year, but unexpectedly, he's not performing as well as his rookie season. In his rookie season, he averaged 9.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 3.7 assists, with a shooting percentage of 45.4% and a three-point percentage of 38.5%. But this season, so far, he's only averaging 8.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 3.5 assists, with a shooting percentage of 39.6% and a three-point percentage of 25.8%. Recently, a brave journalist bluntly stated, "Bjelica hasn't reached the level to be a rotational player yet, the Warriors should bench him and not let him play." American media NBA Memes once mocked Bjelica, saying, "The Warriors actually gave up on George and Marquinhos for him." I have to tell you something, a few days ago, that fake news outlet NBA Centel posted a dynamic saying, "If Bjelica doesn't improve his basketball skills, he'll be kicked out of the Warriors." Then, Draymond Green secretly liked this post... So, Bjelica, who was once a darling, has now become a nuisance to everyone. The Warriors are planning to trade him…
