On January 3, 2022, the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Timberwolves 108-105 to win two straight. In the past four games, the Lakers have won 3 and lost 1, and finally began to get back on track. In this game, the Lakers' two 37-year-old veterans, James and Anthony, have played well. Among them, James shot 7 of 15 and cut 26 points, 7 boards and 5 assists on 3-of-9 three-pointers, while Anthony shot 5 of 10 and 3 of 7 from three-point range, cutting 14 points and 2 assists. Thanks to the excellent performance of the two veterans, the Lakers finally won the game.
After the game, James and Anthony were interviewed by reporters. Anthony can be described as domineering in an interview, sitting directly on the bench and cocking Erlang's legs, no wonder there have always been fans who say that Anthony is a "big brother". In Anthony's interview, James stood quietly and waited. After Anthony's interview, the two returned to the locker room together, which can be described as brotherly love. Today, the status of James and Anthony in the NBA league or in the Lakers is very different, but James still will not put any shelf in front of Anthony, there is still no gap between the two, or the "good brother" of the year. Many fans saw this scene and said bluntly: "20 years of good brothers." ”
In a post-game interview, James also talked about Anthony's addition. James said bluntly: "The arrival of Anthony makes me feel like breathing fresh air, and I am very happy to have the opportunity to play with him for a full season." And Anthony is also willing to make sacrifices for his good brother James, accept the role of a substitute, and lead the Lakers' bench lineup. The friendship between the two can be seen.
James, Wade, Anthony and Paul are called the "Four Heroes of the Wind and Dust" and the "Banana Boat Brothers" by fans, and the feelings of the four have always been very deep. Now Wade has retired as a shareholder of the Jazz, while Paul leads the Suns to the top, and James and Anthony are fighting together on the Lakers. Even though many things were different, the friendship between James and Anthony did not change. I hope that the Lakers management will operate well, so that the 37-year-old brothers can lift the championship trophy together at the end of their careers.
Come on, Lakers!
