Halloween night can go from boring to crazy, all it takes is a more interesting uniform than black and white.
When Amber wore a personal nurse uniform covered with American flags, Lin Yu went crazy, shouting that he wanted to be covered with American flags, even regardless of the fact that he still had a game to play in Los Angeles.
But after one night, Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown also understood that no one would have a good rest on a holiday like Halloween, and for tomorrow's game, he chose to take a day off on the second day of Halloween.
The Cavaliers had a day off, but the whole of North America was bustling with activity and parties due to last night's game.
Fortunately for the competition, none of the three Halloween battles attracted much attention.
Needless to say, the game between the Lakers and the Cavaliers started quite fiercely. The Lakers took a big lead, and then the Cavaliers launched a counterattack and quickly tied the score.
From the first half, this game was very exciting, with both sides going back and forth, and the game had ups and downs.
It's just that in the second half of the game, the Cavaliers performed too well and the game was really one-sided, thus losing some of its intensity and excitement.
After the game, not many people were willing to discuss the game.
Half of the discussion threads on Reddit were related to the party in Los Angeles.
A reporter saw that less than half an hour after the party started, LeBron James' huge body appeared outside the manor and left in a hurry.
Some reporters also saw Lin Yu exchanging a few words with Kobe Bryant as he left with Amber at the end of the party, which sparked countless speculations.
"Obviously, there were no close friends of LeBron at this party, so he chose to leave as soon as possible. As for where he went after leaving, we don't know."
"Has anyone seen the private exchange between China Lin and Kobe? We make a bold guess that one is unhappy in Cleveland, and the other's team has been looking for reinforcements since the new season, so..."
"As someone who has some connections in the Los Angeles area, let me give you another clue. Elton Brand, who has never participated in player activities of the rival team in the same city, showed up at the party and chatted with Chinese Lin Re for a long time.
Hours!"
"Wow, is it possible that China Lin is going to LA?"
"..."
On the other hand, the game between the Spurs and the Celtics was not paid much attention, but because the small Big Three defeated the real Big Three, Duncan performed well, and compared with his opposite Garnett, his performance was slightly inferior.
The biggest favorite in the pre-season predictions for the championship lost two games in a row, and the loss was to the championship and runner-up last season. This originally unpopular matchup gained some popularity, and many discussion threads were posted on Reddit.
“Zach Lowe’s preseason predictions are a total bust!”
"The favorites to win the championship have lost two games in a row at the beginning of the season. Although the opponents are very strong, but they have lost two games against their direct competitors for the championship. I can only say that the Celtics still have a long way to go."
"The current Celtics are too focused on the performance of Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce. As for Ray Allen, his performance is getting worse and worse. Maybe the current Celtics can no longer be called
It’s a Big Three team.”
"Ray Allen, like his former teammate Rashard Lewis, has gradually put on the hat of a pseudo-giant."
"If Ray Allen were replaced by Lin from China..."
"Then the Celtics are really the favorites for the championship. However, without what-if, now they have not relied on the configuration of the Big Three to widen the gap with the Cavaliers, Spurs and other teams. Even the Cavaliers and Spurs are perfect.
The configuration is still slightly ahead.”
Finally, there is the Halloween showdown between the Rockets and the Mavericks. This game is the least noticed among the three, and in the end, the Mavericks' victory seems to be unable to explain anything.
At least, after being hacked last season, the Mavericks have been gradually excluded from the favorites to compete for the championship by major media, experts and football critics. As for the Rockets, they have never been the favorites to compete for the championship.
Therefore, a duel between non-first-line strong teams naturally does not receive much attention.
However, on the other side of the ocean, this game is still very popular.
Facing the Mavericks, who won the championship the previous season and were beaten eight times the season before, and Eric Dampier, who claims to be the second center in the Western Conference, Yao performed very well, scoring 22 points and 11 rebounds on 9-for-18 shooting.
3 assists and 2 blocks.
But McGrady seems to have not gotten over the bad state of the preseason. In this game, his performance was terrible, and he was completely blown away by his opponent Jason Terry, and the Rockets lost because of it.
Of the three games, the most hotly discussed one is naturally the Cavaliers.
"First defeat the Celtics, and then win in the 23vs24 battle. The Cleveland Cavaliers are obviously in full shape for the new season!"
"Originally, people were still worried about the Cavaliers in the new season because Rashard Lewis left to join the Orlando Magic and China Lin also claimed that he was unhappy in Cleveland. But now, the Cavaliers have told everyone with two consecutive wins.
, their worries are unnecessary.”
"Although China Lin claimed that he was unhappy in Cleveland, scoring 30+ points in two games showed that his state was not affected. Perhaps, he was simply unhappy and had no intention of leaving Cleveland.
idea."

The Cavaliers took a day off in Los Angeles, and on the day after Halloween, when the Cavaliers played against the Clippers, they conducted warm-up training in the hotel.
Then, they went to the Staples Center again and faced the Clippers, whose star (Elton Brand) was seriously injured and led by Corey Maggette.
The Cavaliers deservedly won the game without any suspense.
In this victory, Lin Yu successfully grabbed most of the ball. He started to take over the game in the middle of the first quarter. In three minutes, he made various strong shots and organized attacks, directly swiping the ball.
A total of 7 points and 3 assists.
In the entire game, he took 22 shots and hit 11 goals, with a shooting percentage of exactly 50%. He scored 29 points, plus 5 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.
As a result, after three games, Lin Yu, who scored 31 points, 35 points and 29 points respectively, ranked first in the league's scoring list with an average of 31.7 points per game.
Ranked second is Kobe, who averaged 30.5 points per game in two games. What many people can feel is that in the two games of the new season, Kobe's passing has increased significantly.
In other words, after winning the scoring title for two consecutive years, because his teammates have improved and become stronger, Kobe has to release some ball rights for the sake of the team's record, and he may no longer compete for the honor of scoring title.
As for Lin Yu, he is currently in the stage of grabbing the ball. Naturally, the scoring champion has become a major goal for him.
But it is only a temporary goal, because what he is not sure about is how many teammates he will meet and how many ball rights he will get if he goes to a new team in the mid-term.
