616. Hull Hill Secondary School

The Lakers' loss to the Raptors is not good news for Los Angeles fans, and they have been hit by double this season.

In the eyes of fans, a team driven by "dual cores" of Lam Feng and LeBron can only destroy others, rather than letting others kill doubles.

Because the Lakers have beaten their opponents in the same zone three times this season, they also have strong confidence in the two teams' final game on April 4.

In any case, losing to the Raptors has become a reality. If they want to take revenge, they can only pray that both teams will enter the finals, otherwise they can only wait until next season.

The second battle of the "Five-Series" failed, and the next battle was to fly to Detroit, the car city, to face the Pistons.

The opponent is a little weak and is still struggling for the playoff spots. They are currently ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference, leading the Miami Heat, which is behind Wade, and if you are not careful, Blake Griffin will be able to go on vacation to Hawaii in advance.

Apart from the top four, the Lakers have a high winning rate against the Eastern Conference teams and have hardly lost too much on them.

But this Detroit night was not smooth, with the Pistons winning 8 and losing 3 in the past 11 games.

In the game where the Pistons beat the Timberwolves, Griffin scored 28 points on 10 of 14 shots and shone.

This is the last game of Lam's truce. He will return in the game against his hometown team Knicks the day after tomorrow.

The start of tonight was as expected, and the two teams started an offensive battle as soon as they came up. The Pistons were very courageous and ignored the Lakers being the strongest offensive team in the entire league.

Griffin played fiercely as soon as he came up. Perhaps because he had played in the Clippers, he was particularly jealous when he saw the Lakers.

The two sides led the scores alternately, and entered the third quarter, and the situation suddenly changed. Just like losing to the Raptors in the last game, the Lakers were scored three-pointers by the Pistons from the outside.

Ellington, Reggie Jackson turned into a three-pointer shot, and with a strong center like Drummond as a cover, the Pistons players were very comfortable playing on the outside.

Lin Feng and Yingge were absent, which made them lose two excellent outside defenders. Fortunately, Caruso stood up in time and used death entanglements to cool down the Pistons' "crazy shots".

However, in the early stage of the third quarter, the Pistons had accumulated a 14-point lead, which made them relaxed after entering the fourth quarter.

At the last moment, James came out to take over the game. His three three-pointers gave the Lakers hope, but Griffin later gave a 2+1 dunk, and Langston Galloway scored a high-difficulty three-pointer, completely killing the game.

After another defeat, the Lakers suffered a series of losses in the Eastern Conference trip. The top spot in the West was dropped. The Detroit fans of the Little Caesar Arena were reluctant to leave for a long time. They all wanted to spend this wonderful night with their team.

Most people did not expect that the Lakers suffered a losing streak. If it was reasonable to lose to the Raptors, then the game of losing to the Pistons would be very unpleasant.

But there is no way. The NBA does not have an absolute weak team. Griffin is also an All-Star player. It is normal for the teams who lose to the lottery zone at the top.

Because of this defeat, the Lakers are on par with the Warriors in terms of record, because the relationship between the winner and loses is currently ranked first, but if the Warriors win the Pacers tomorrow night, the Lakers will give up the top spot in the Western Conference for the first time after "Sweet February".

This disappointed Los Angeles fans, but Lakers players didn't have time to taste it. They had already flew to Madison Square Garden in New York to face the Knicks who were determined to sign the No. 1 pick.

"I'm going home, guys." Lin Feng said excitedly on the plane.

Hart spread his hands, "You have the chance to go home twice a year, which is jealous."

In Queens, New York, if you have the chance, Lin Feng really wants to go back and take a look. However, the place where they originally lived has been transformed into a park and no longer has the same feeling as before.

Compared to Los Angeles, the city where Gary Smith grew up seems a bit strange.

On the day of the competition, Lin Feng left the hotel early and went to Queens alone to stroll around.

Back to the familiar Third Street, there are only some traces left in this street that carries "his" memory, and there are still traces in one corner of Billy and the others' graffiti.

The unfinished building that "saved" Chloe last year is still there, which is very different from the surrounding architectural style and looks very eye-catching.

The convenience store where sister Evelyn once worked still exists. The elder sister who used to joke about Lin Feng was sorting out the goods.

Those are still the same, and everyone seems to have not changed anything because of the appearance of Lin Feng. Of course, Lin Feng is just a somewhat famous professional basketball player, and it is not unique to the residents who still live here.

New York is a big city. When I come back this time, Lam plans to go to his alma mater, not Syracuse University, but a middle school called Hull Mountain.

This is not what Lin Feng meant by himself. Dad Andrew asked him to help visit an old friend named Fred Lewis.

In that junior high school, "he" had a rich past, and some of his deeds would still be talked about by his younger generations.

Papa Andrew was also a junior high school basketball coach, and Fred Lewis made the unknown Hull Hill Middle School famous in the New York area.

When I met Lewis, I was at the indoor basketball court of Hull Mountain Junior High School. This father's old friend had half of his hair, but his body was still strong.

What made Lam happy was that Hullshan Middle School retired the No. 8 jersey he once wore, although it had nothing to do with him, it was all the honors of Gary Smith.

That year, he represented Hull Mountain in the Middle School League in New York State, averaged more than 30 points per game, which was rare for a child aged 14 or 15.

"Gary Smith! The hottest superstar in the United States, hahaha! I'm so happy to know you can come. To be honest, your dad's life makes me jealous."

Uncle Lewis spread his arms enthusiastically.

To be honest, Lin Feng was not familiar with him, but the dusty memory in his body made him feel warm.

Those young players who were practicing showed a happy expression when they saw him. Many teenagers in this school regarded him as their idol.

On the school basketball court, you can occasionally see basketball players wearing the Lakers No. 11 jersey. They all know Lin Feng, and it seems that they have never left here.

Uncle Lewis continued to pursue his basketball dream. He patted Lin Feng on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Putting aside those gossip news, you are indeed a good guy, at least that's the case on the basketball court."

"Look at the guys on the court, they are all proud of you graduating from here. Some people also dream of entering the NBA and showing themselves in the best basketball court in the world like you do."

Lin Feng made him feel a little proud, but he didn't expect that he would still have his own story in his "hometown".

He plans to tell the children about the principles of life. Although he is just a rookie in the league, he is a super warrior in the eyes of the children.
