After defeating the Thunder, the Warriors returned home to face the Lakers.

Before the game started, fans were looking forward to it. They thought it would be as exciting as the Christmas game, with the winner not being decided until the last moment.

But after the game started, the fans were extremely disappointed.

The Warriors only lasted two and a half quarters before surrendering.

This result was in sharp contrast to the first time the two teams met.

Fans who watched this game all joked that this Warriors team is not fake!

In fact, it is not that the Warriors have become weaker, but that the Lakers have shown the strength of the defending champion and are not as wasteful as in the first match, giving the Warriors no chance to win at all.

In the end, the Warriors lost to the Lakers 89-107, ending their two-game winning streak.

In terms of statistics, the Lakers' best player is Kobe Bryant.

Naoji regards this game as a battle of revenge and will go all out to win.

In the 35 minutes he played, he scored 32 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals, and was elected the best player of the game.

For the Warriors, the best player is undoubtedly Sun Yi.

In 38 minutes on the court, he scored 19 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 block.

After the game, Nao Yao was very happy to win and went up to encourage Sun Yi.

"Kid, keep up the good work, I look forward to the two of us fighting side by side in the All-Stars."

After Kobe finished speaking, he waved his hand and turned around and walked towards the tunnel.

Watching Nacha leave, Sun Yi shook his head slightly, feeling that Cauliflower Snake might not be able to come to the appointment.

According to the original historical development, Kobe will announce his withdrawal from this All-Star Game due to a finger injury and concentrate on recuperating and preparing for the playoffs.

Sun Yi withdrew his gaze, turned around and walked towards the players' tunnel, returning to the locker room to join the team.

After losing to the Lakers, the Warriors continued to play at home against other teams in the league.

On January 26, the Warriors defeated the Kings without a fight.

The Warriors made 25 three-pointers in the game, breaking the NBA record for three-pointers in a single game.

Under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Warriors from three-point range, the Kings only withstood two quarters before calling it a day and giving up the game.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the Kings 136-96.

In terms of statistics, Curry won the honor of the best player of the game.

In the 30 minutes he played, he made 7 of 8 shots from the three-point line and scored 27 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

Sun Yi's performance was quite satisfactory, with a near-triple-double of 15 points, 8 rebounds, 16 assists and 2 blocks.

For the Kings, the best player is Evans.

In the 32 minutes he played, he scored 20 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal.

In the competition for the best rookie, Sun Yi once again defeated Evans and won a resounding victory.

Unless Sun Yi's data drops significantly or Evans' data improves significantly in subsequent games, Evans will only be ranked second in the best rookie rankings.

After four quarters of fierce battle, the Warriors lost to the Suns 121-125.

In terms of statistics, Nash won the honor of the best player of the game.

For the Warriors, Sun Yi scored 21 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.

Curry made 4 of 10 three-pointers and scored 18 points, 2 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal.

After this game, the Warriors and Suns have played three games against each other this season and lost all three games.

Among the powerful teams in the Western Conference, the Warriors can defeat the Lakers, Mavericks and other teams, but they cannot defeat the Suns.

It can be said that the Suns are completely the nemesis of the Warriors.

Although the Warriors have been losing to the Suns, they have not made any progress. After these three battles, they have been able to play back and forth with the Suns.

As long as the Warriors are given a certain amount of time to grow, they will definitely be able to defeat the Suns.

…

…

On January 30, the Warriors faced the Jazz at home.

The Warriors failed to defeat the Jazz in the two previous meetings between the two sides.

In this confrontation, the Warriors are no longer what they used to be. Their overall strength has been greatly improved. It is not certain who will win or lose.

After the game started, the Warriors picked up their offensive pace.

If you play positional offense against a defensive team like the Jazz, take the jujube pill.

Facing the Warriors' run and gun, the Jazz have Deron in control and will not be easily led astray.

Seeing this situation, the Warriors did not slow down and each used their own offensive tactics.

In this way, the two sides played inextricably, and the game fell into an anxious state.

When the game reached the last minute or so of the fourth quarter, the two sides decided the winner.

Sun Yi relied on active defense to block Boozer's shot, then grabbed the basketball and ran toward the frontcourt.

The Warriors launched a defensive counterattack, and Sun Yi broke into the penalty area to attract the defense and immediately scored the ball.

Curry, who was standing in the left corner, received the pass, faced Kirilenko's defense and hit a three-pointer, widening the point difference to 5 points.

The Jazz did not give up the game and planned to fight to the death. Deron dribbled to the outside of the three-point line and missed the three-point shot despite Curry's interference.

Under the basket, Boozer grabbed the offensive rebound and immediately released it.

After receiving the ball, Deron continued to shoot three-pointers without any hesitation.

But what greeted him this time was Sun Yi's volleyball-style hat, which completely extinguished the Jazz's hope of winning.

As the harsh buzzer sounded, this anxious battle came to an end.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the Jazz 95-90.

In terms of statistics, Sun Yi won the honor of the best player of the game.

In the 43 minutes he played, he scored 18 points, 13 rebounds, 8 assists, 5 steals and 5 blocks.

This was also the first time in Sun Yi's career that he played 5×5, breaking a series of records in the Warriors' team history.

Curry performed equally well, and he played a huge role in winning the game.

In the 40 minutes he played, he scored 23 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals.

For the Jazz, the most outstanding player is Deron.

In 42 minutes on the court, he scored a double-double of 22 points, 4 rebounds, 11 assists and 1 steal.

After defeating the Jazz, the Warriors ended all games in January and began preparing for the games before the All-Star Game.

On February 1st, the alliance announced the major awards for January on time.

The Eastern Conference Coach of the Month was won by Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown.

This guy hugged James' thick legs and lay down to take the honor.

The Western Conference Coach of the Month was won by Hornets head coach Monty Williams.

The Eastern Conference Player of the Month continues to be LeBron James.

In the January game, James averaged 30.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.5 assists and 1.6 steals per game, leading the Cavaliers to an excellent record of 12 wins and 3 losses.

If he continues to finish the regular season with this kind of performance, there is a high probability that he can win the regular season MVP honor again.

The Cavaliers were able to achieve such an excellent record in January not only because of James' excellent statistics, but also because they completed a robbery deal after the "Gungate" incident, using a bare-knuckle method to acquire quasi-All-Star players.

Jamison has greatly increased the overall strength of the Cavaliers.

At this stage, the Cavaliers have become the most popular team to win the championship, surpassing the Lakers in winning odds.

The Western Conference Player of the Month was won by Chris Paul of the Hornets.

In the January game, Paul averaged 20.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, 11.9 assists and 2.4 steals per game, leading the Hornets to an excellent record of 11 wins and 5 losses.

After head coach Scott dismissed get out of class, Paul would try his best in every game to prove his strength and single-handedly lead the team back to the playoffs.

Although he has achieved some results, Paul's risk-taking game is very risky. With his style of play, it is only a matter of time before injuries occur.

In the original history, Paul only played more than 40 games this season before suffering a season-ending injury, and the Hornets failed to make the playoffs.

The Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month was won by Jennings of the Bucks.

This guy learned his shame and then acted bravely. He scored 55 points in the game against the Nets, surpassing Sun Yi's 51 points in one fell swoop. He felt proud and proud.

In the January games, Jennings averaged 22.4 points, 3.2 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.5 steals, winning the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month again.

Relying on his outstanding performance in January, Jennings overtook Curry and Evans and ranked second on the rookie list.

Some outside experts and celebrities have predicted that Jennings will overtake Sun Yi in the later stages and reach the top of the rookie list.

But this is just a flash in the pan. In the original history, Jennings would be targeted by various teams in the league in subsequent games, hit the rookie wall, lead to a sharp decline in data, and then disappear from the fans' sight.

middle.

As for how Jennings will develop in the future, Sun Yizhen cannot predict it. Since his arrival has caused a series of butterfly effects, things have changed in the future.

There is no doubt about the Western Conference Rookie of the Month. Sun Yi won this honor again.

In the January game, Sun Yi averaged 18.8 points, 10.5 rebounds, 9.2 assists and 1.8 steals per game, winning the Western Conference Rookie of the Month award.

After the awards were awarded, each team began to prepare for the competition in February.

Since the free trade market will close around February 15, players who have hopes for the playoffs are seizing the time to strengthen their lineups.

Prior to this, the Cavaliers traded for Jamison with nothing, which made some teams competing for the championship start to feel insecure and find ways to strengthen.

The Dallas Mavericks took the lead and acquired Caron Butler through a trade.

Not to be outdone, other powerful teams have made a series of trade signings.

The Celtics traded for Rasheed Wallace to further improve their inside strength.

The Charlotte Bobcats are preparing for the playoffs by trading Stephen Jackson.

The Mosaic team packaged McGrady to the Knicks through a three-way trade and acquired Martin from the Kings.

…

While other teams were making trades and reinforcements, the Warriors were as stable as a rock and did not make any reinforcement transactions.

Many Warriors fans are very anxious about this.

At this stage, the Warriors are only ranked seventh in the Western Conference and are not sure about entering the playoffs.

Without reinforcements, it will be difficult to compete with other teams in the Western Conference.

In fact, Warriors general manager Larry Riley was very active in making reinforcements in the free market, but all of them were rejected by Nelson.

These crooked ideas in the free market are not suitable for the Warriors' system, and forcing them into them will only be counterproductive.

In Nelson's view, his team only needs suitable players and does not need strong players.

The Warriors' current lineup is already very good. If they want to further improve the team's strength, they can only strengthen it through the summer free market.

…

…

On February 2, the Warriors came to cold Minnesota to challenge the Timberwolves away from home.

Under Sun Yi's guidance, the Warriors didn't put in much effort and defeated the Timberwolves in three quarters.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the Timberwolves 118-97 and won two consecutive games.

In terms of statistics, Sun Yi was elected the best player of the game with 22 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals.

The best player for the Timberwolves is undoubtedly Love.

This guy put up some good numbers, scoring a double-double of 18 points, 22 rebounds and 3 assists.

After defeating the Timberwolves, the Warriors successively defeated the Mosaics and Clippers before losing to the Nuggets.

February 9th is the last game day before the All-Star Game.

The Warriors defeated the Grizzlies 107-100 at home.

After the game against the Grizzlies, Sun Yi, Curry, Randolph and others planned to go to Dallas to participate in this All-Star Game.

At the same time, digital star Allen Iverson accepted an interview with media reporters and said that in order to take care of his family, he decided to withdraw from this year's Dallas All-Star Game.

Iverson's move made the fans who supported him feel extremely disappointed.

In order to see Iverson on the stage of the All-Star Game for the last time, they voted like crazy, but what they got in exchange was this result, which was a bit hard to accept.

After that, Kobe also held a press conference and stated that he would participate in the All-Star Game, but he would not be able to play for too long due to injury and would recuperate for a period of time after the All-Star Game.

The Amys were relieved when they heard the news. At least they could see their idols in the All-Star Game. They were much better than Amy next door.

The blow to the fans is not over yet. Hornets star Chris Paul suffered an injury in a previous game and will miss this All-Star Game.

At this point, the Eastern and Western rosters for the Dallas All-Star Game are released.

Eastern starting lineup: Wade, Joe Johnson, James, Garnett, Howard.

Eastern Conference bench: Bosh, Rose, Horford, Pierce, Rondo, David Lee, Gerald Wallace.

Western Conference starting lineup: Nash, Kobe, Anthony, Sun Yi, Stoudemire.
