On the afternoon of December 25, a luxury SUV drove from Malibu to Staples Arena in the city center with laughter and laughter.

Robert's family of four was happily going to Staples Arena. They bought tickets for the Christmas game. This was the happiest thing for this family in the week before Christmas, because many families did not buy the tickets for this high-profile game.

Match tickets.

Mrs. Robert, a senior intellectual, couldn't even restrain her vanity and showed off her tickets on social networks.

This triggered thousands of messages, which was the most traffic she had ever received since she opened the social network. Many people expressed envy and jealousy below, and some were even willing to pay more than five times the price to buy the tickets in her hands. Following, Dwight Howard

After joining, the offer price soared to 10 times.

Mrs. Robert is not short of money, and she enjoys the feeling of traveling as a family.

Even though her husband wears Lakers jersey No. 24 and forces her to wear Lakers jersey No. 16. And her son and daughter wear Clippers jersey No. 10.

Situations like theirs abound in Los Angeles.

The older generation prefers the Los Angeles Lakers, which is their long-standing tradition. Young fans are infected by Fan Xi's energy, and more and more teenagers are becoming fans of Fan Xi.

"Child, although I am very happy that you have your own opinion, it means that you are becoming a person with independent thinking. However, you must clearly understand another thing: do not challenge authority easily. Being independent is what children pursue.

The following things are the contents of fairy tale books. What can really change the world are still those deep-rooted behemoths."

Lawyer Robert taught his son earnestly. He hoped that his son would become a mature and steady person like him.

Little Robert was the complete opposite of his father. He spoke at least twice as fast as his father. He told his father: "I know what you want to say, but I feel that it is always the passionate young people who move the world. Those who are down-to-earth

The old middle-aged people will just rest on their laurels and talk about the power of inertia."

"No, son. Do you know? Why did Dwight Howard join the Lakers instead of the Clippers? It's because of the brand power of the Lakers. The brand the Lakers have built through so many superstars, why can Jack Fan be easily overturned once he becomes famous?

?”

Lawyer Robert said angrily that he was afraid that his son would become an ambitious person. "If a person always thinks that he can change the world, he is likely to be abandoned by the world."

"No, father. I think if a person doesn't even have the courage to change the world, he will always be a mediocre person." Robert Jr. retorted.

The atmosphere became dull.

"Tonight's game will teach you a lesson, kid."

"No, Dad. I think tonight's game will be a surprise for everyone."

The two father and son are in tit-for-tat confrontation.

The little daughter sitting in the back suddenly said: "So, will Taylor appear on the sidelines tonight? I hope she will kiss Jack Fan tonight. This will be a victory for us ft girls..."

The two fathers and sons in front finally reached a consensus: "Shut up!"

Both basketball fans believe that gossiping at this time is something that tarnishes the game.

The mistress of the family sat there, looking at everything with a smile. She thought this was the most heartwarming picture in the world.

The two men were arguing about the football game and competing on their own world views, while the girl was looking forward to gossip... looking at them with a smile.

There is nothing happier than this.

…

What happened to Robert's family is just a snapshot of the entire Los Angeles, and many of the same things happened in different places.

ESPN said that tonight is the most important game in the history of Los Angeles basketball, because it is the heaviest and cruelest suppression of the Los Angeles Lakers against the challenger Los Angeles Clippers.

Something worth mentioning is that the number of fans entering the venue tonight is 50:50.

Although this is the home court of the Clippers, Lakers fans have always been ahead of Clippers fans in terms of financial resources. Clippers fans used to be mostly blue-collar workers, while Lakers fans have always been the favorites of midfield families.

In addition, Sterling's previously exposed discriminatory remarks were also an important reason, which led to many Clippers fans who had priority to purchase tickets to transfer their tickets, and naturally it was Lakers fans who took over.

As a result, the current situation of Lakers fans and Clippers fans at Staples Center is divided into half. And it is not a clear-cut split between half and half, but there is me in you and you in me, wearing the jerseys of different home teams, the stars are distributed.

, like a well-matched Go game.

The camera panned across the vast Staples Arena, and there was an epic sense of confusion.

It's like the shots of Chinese costume historical dramas, scenes of troubled times.

…

Fanshi came to Staples Arena very early. He practiced for a while and then returned to the locker room. Because a large number of media came in, both ESPN and NBC broadcast live. Their machines and personnel made the arena crowded.

It was a bit chaotic, with too many media staff gathered together for this globally watched game.

Fan Xi doesn't like this messy feeling, and they always want to come over and ask Fan Xi some questions.

Every move of Fanshie before the game will become news.

So, Fan Xi simply returned to the arena and waited for the game to start.

Like Fanshie, other players in the locker room were also silent. Only Blake Griffin was very excited. He kept clapping his hands and shouting: This is a historic moment. Brothers, this is more attention than any other game.

The visibility is high, and every move we make will be seen by more than one billion viewers.

This was obviously what Khloe Kardashian told him. The Kardashian family knows how to create stunts to attract attention.

Probably because of Griffin's particularly exciting performance, head coach Mike Brown put him on the substitute list. The starting lineup was DeAndre Jordan, Kwame Brown, Kawhi Leonard, Hamilton, and Fanci.

This made Griffin quite unhappy.

However, he endured it and did not fall out with Mike Brown.

Because Kohler told him before the game: You have to be patient. The Clippers are a ship that can sink at any time tonight. What you have to do is seize every opportunity to shine and be the brightest among the losers. In this way, you

Only in this way can you steal other people's light.

Griffin may not listen to other people's words, but he takes this woman's words as his guide.

This is probably what is called love.

…

In the Lakers' locker room before the game, Kobe Bryant was also silent. Although he knew that the Clippers were not strong enough to compete with the Lakers, he still tightened his grip. He refused to be interviewed and did not participate in Howard's locker room.

Game. He is like an out-of-place old man, because he knows that Fan Xi is by no means a pushover, and this game will not be a unilateral sanction as the media said.

Dwight Howard is very active. He doesn't act like a newcomer who just joined. He has always been known for his happiness. It only took him one training session to get along with the Lakers players, and he has a close relationship with Chris Paul.

Howard has praised in the media more than once: I have never played with such an excellent point guard. I will definitely usher in a real explosion. My peak has just begun.

Other Lakers players are also optimistic. Howard fills the Lakers' penalty area. He makes the Lakers' defensive energy soar. Moreover, Howard's athletic ability will allow the Lakers to maintain top activity in rapid offensive and defensive transitions.

Judging from the atmosphere before the game, the Los Angeles Lakers are more confident.

…

At 8:30 pm Western Time, the lights of Staples Arena dimmed. After the on-site DJ introduced the Lakers players, they welcomed the Clippers players onto the stage with loud shouts, which was very ceremonial.

In fact, judging from the cheers, the two sides are almost the same.

The ESPN commentator said in a low voice: "This is the current situation in Los Angeles. Lakers fans are everywhere. You think this is the home court of the Clippers, but it is not."

The starting players of both sides took to the court.

The Lakers' starting lineup is: Chris Paul, Kobe Bryant, Ron Artest, Pau Gasol, and Dwight Howard.

Three superstars, one All-Star, plus a former Defensive Player of the Year.

This lineup should be called the best in the world from any offensive and defensive perspective.

In comparison, the Clippers' starting lineup seems a bit thin.

Kwame Brown took the initiative to stand on the center line.

This parallel import center, who has been scolded for most of his career and has always been submissive, held his head high tonight and looked directly at Howard with fierce eyes.

Howard glanced at Kwame Brown and looked away disapprovingly.

This is a deep-seated disdain.

He has almost forgotten Kwame Brown, how could he still regard him as an imaginary enemy.

Beep!

When the referee blows the whistle, he throws the basketball into the sky.

Howard jumped up with a pop, and Kwame Brown also took off quickly. To be honest, Kwame Brown's jumping speed is not slow anymore, but Howard is even more powerful.

Howard also has a longer wingspan.

His palm hit the basketball first, and at the same time... Bang!

Kwame Brown pushed hard from below...The basketball flew out of Howard's control.

Kwame Brown also instantly felt pain in the index and middle fingers of his right hand.

This was the only way he could think of.

Even though it was just an inconsequential jump ball.

But Kwame Brown had too much depression in his heart, and... when he came to the Clippers and came to Fan Xi, he gradually picked up something that had been lost for a long time in this short period of time: dignity.

The parallel import champion that everyone ridiculed has his own obsession. Although his revenge would be ridiculous when told, it would be just like his funny collection of butter hands.

However, who said that a person must die in the ridicule of others.
