NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal - Vol 2 Chapter 1022
Various discussions and controversies in the market did not affect Wang Zelin and the Trail Blazers, and they continued their unfinished journey in November.
As for the last remaining game in November, the Blazers did not lose the chain and won the victory with ease.
On the 29th, the Trail Blazers continued to sit at home and ushered in the season opener of the Eastern powerhouse Indiana Pacers.
The Pacers have had some ups and downs this season, but overall, they are still able to maintain the top six in the Eastern Conference.
However, they were unlucky during this time. The head star Paul George was injured some time ago. Fortunately, it was only a minor injury. He could only return after a week of truce, which would not affect the regular season plan.
But without General Joe, the strength of the Pacers has dropped from around the top six in the Eastern Conference to the edge of the Eastern Conference playoffs. It is difficult to beat any strong team in the league.
What’s more, they also encountered the defending champion Trail Blazers who started off fiercely!
While George was recuperating, Jeff Teague naturally became the interim boss, and he performed very well today. He played 34 minutes and made 7 of 13 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, and 10 of 12 free throws. With 25 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals, he performed extremely well.
In addition, four of the Pacers scored in double figures, namely Myles Turner with 19 points and 10 rebounds, Glenn Robinson III with 15 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal, and 16 points and 3 rebounds. Al Jefferson with 13 points, 1 rebound and 1 steal for Aaron Brooks…
Even if the opponent tonight is the mighty Trail Blazers, the Pacers players still showed their tenacious game style and unyielding spirit.
It’s okay to lose, but you must not lose in a wimpy way!
It is rare to meet such a respectable opponent, and the Blazers will also devote themselves to the game, convincing the opponent to lose.
135:109, the Blazers easily won the Pacers at home. Wang Zelin scored 36 points, 14 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks. He clocked out of get off work in three quarters every day, and the myth of the Blazers’ unbeaten home game continued.
So far, all 16 games of the Trail Blazers in November have ended, plus the 3 games at the end of October, they have a record of 19 wins and 0 losses, making them proud of the league!
Thinking back to before the season, no one could have predicted that the Trail Blazers would have a 19-0 start against the sky.
Although in the past two seasons, the Trail Blazers have achieved 24 consecutive victories in the 2014-15 season and 26 consecutive victories in the 2015-16 season respectively, setting a record for the opening streak in a single season in NBA history.
But this season is really different.
After a series of controversial trades during the offseason, the entire league has undergone earth-shaking changes. Even before the start of the game, the Trail Blazers, which had just achieved three consecutive championships and established a dynasty, were even the strongest team in the new season.
If this was placed at the beginning of the century, when the OK Lakers dynasty had just won three consecutive championships, who would dare to say that they were not the strongest team in the various predictions for the start of the 2002-03 season?
But reality is so unpredictable.
Who would have expected that Durant actually chose to sign naked with the Warriors, and he didn’t even leave any legacy to the Thunder, so that the Warriors signed the top three superstars with the top three overall combat effectiveness at almost no cost. huge.
Thus, the Golden State Warriors formed the strongest galaxy battleship in history of Curry + Thompson + Durant + Green!
The title of cosmic bravery has been resounding in the league since the end of the offseason trade, and even many people complained at the time: What are you going to play next season? What’s the point of trying so hard? Why not just award the championship to the Warriors!
As a result, the Warriors slapped everyone in the face in the opening game of the new season. The four-star Warriors actually lost to the dual-core Spurs…
From another perspective, the Warriors really exceeded everyone’s expectations, because they actually chose the style of play with the most barrage.
Fortunately, after the defeat in the opening game, the Warriors quickly completed adjustments and quickly demonstrated the true power of the Galaxy Battleship.
So far, the Warriors have a record of 16 wins and 2 losses, ranking second in the Western Conference and second in the league.
But the thing that Wanshiwanwu fears the most is comparison.
Compared with the 19-game winning streak of the Blazers, the seemingly excellent record of the four-star Warriors seems to have become a joke in an instant.
Obviously the Warriors’ paper strength is worse than that of the Blazers, but their record is not as good as the latter. Isn’t it funny?
…
On the same day, Oracle Arena.
The Warriors also ushered in the final game in November. They ushered in the challenge of the Eastern Eagles at home.
Unexpectedly, the game was very stalemate, and even at the end of the first half, the Eagles in turn led the Warriors by 3 points 53:50.
Fortunately, in the second half, Curry and Durant suddenly attacked, and the two scored 34 points together, which helped the Warriors beat the Hawks 105:100.
In the crucial second half, Durant made 5 of 9 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 17 points efficiently.
Curry did not give up much. In the second half, he made 4 of 9, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 7 of 9 free throws, and also scored 17 points.
Thompson performed equally well. He also scored 20 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block tonight.
Tonight, the Big Four of the Warriors scored 64 points… Well, Green scored 2 of 9 and scored 4 points, but this did not prevent the Warriors from winning their 16th game of the season.
After the game, Durant and Curry, who both scored 25 points tonight, were selected as the best players of the game.
At the scene of the Oracle Arena, the losing Eagles players have already left the field early, and Durant Curry is preparing to be interviewed by reporters after the game with great anticipation.
Unexpectedly, because the reporter came up and asked, “KD, Russell scored another 30+ triple-double against the Pistons today. He is now firmly ahead of you and Stephen in the MVP rankings. What do you think about this? Is there anything you want to say?”
“…”
Durant looked down at the reporter. Who in the league doesn’t know that Russell and I have fallen out. Now asking this kind of question, did you do it on purpose or accidentally?
In fact, Durant was only half right. The reporter really didn’t just deliberately find fault.
Since Wang Zelin got the 40+ triple-double, the outside world has reached an unprecedented level of discussion on the data of the triple-double. In order to earn a wave of traffic, the reporter certainly does not want to let Durant, the active super giant, want to ask him. view.
As for whether Durant will feel embarrassed or upset?
Sorry, he has never thought about this question, he has come out to mix with the media, why do he care so much, news and things have always been daring and timid.
If you are timid and thick-skinned, don’t mess with the media!
Sure enough, the joy on Durant’s face that was originally due to winning disappeared instantly, and then a face like black charcoal.
Emmm, even though he was pretty dark.
Seeing that something was wrong with the atmosphere at the scene, Durant’s face was getting darker and darker. Curry hurried out to help out, and he chose to change the topic:
“Kevin is the best player today. We were able to win the game thanks to his mid-range accuracy at critical moments. I will vote for him as the best player in the Western Conference in November! I hope everyone can vote for him more !”
It has to be said that Curry is really broad-minded. He is obviously on his own team, and his performance today is no worse than Durant, but he is still willing to give Durant the biggest credit for winning.
Perhaps in his heart, winning is the most important thing, as long as he can help the team, he is willing to make concessions.
At this point, Curry is really like the No. 21 rookie who just retired this summer. Although one is an outside line and the other is an inside line, there are really many similarities between the two.
What is certain is that both of them are extremely rare perfect leaders in NBA history!
It is an honor for every player to be teammates with such a team leader.
Seeing Curry helping to excuse, Durant’s face turned cloudy and cleared in an instant, and he hurriedly said, “No, no, Stephen is the most important part of the team. I have never seen such an outstanding team leader like him. So excited to be joining the Warriors family.”
Whether it is now or in the last time and space, before winning the championship, Durant always kept in mind his identity as a magic soldier. That time was also the most harmonious time for him to get along with the Warriors players.
Including Dazui Green, when Durant was sprayed by Thunder fans, he couldn’t help but stand up and help him.
And, it’s not just once or twice.
After coming to the Warriors, all kinds of good circumstances made Durant even more grateful that he made the right choice and became teammates with Westbrook, who likes to play at every turn. champion.
Therefore, in front of the media, Durant is still very happy to maintain Curry’s status as the leader of the team. He doesn’t want to affect the team’s good chemistry because of his pretentiousness.
“you…”
Looking at the passionate two people in front of them, the reporter felt like being stuffed with dog food, and was speechless for a while.
Forget it, let’s spare this sensitive guy for now, and come back to interview him when Stephen is gone.
The reporter sighed in his heart, then had a flash of inspiration, and brought up another topic: “In two days, the Warriors will go to the Rose Garden Arena in Portland to play the first game of the new season against the Trail Blazers. Do you have the confidence to beat the Blazers who started the season with 19 straight victories?”
Hearing this question, Curry’s expression became serious. As the strongest imaginary enemy of the Warriors in the West, he has been paying attention to the Blazers’ movements all the time.
Curry has both admiration and concern for the Blazers’ undefeated start.
Of course, what remains unchanged is his confidence in the strength of the Warriors!
Just when Curry was about to answer, Durant, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
“I will win the game two days later! I promise, there will be no accidents this time!”
Hey, brother, your silence has finally been lifted.
The reporter gave Durant a blank look, and then his heart was filled with joy.
Is this the old Chinese saying, “If you don’t make a song, you will be a blockbuster”?
Durant, who had been silenced for a long time, made a big move as soon as he came up, and his words were full of confidence in the game between the Warriors and the Trail Blazers.
And it should be noted that Durant said “I”, not us.
Obviously, he has been brooding about losing to Wang Zelin in the past four consecutive years. Joining the Warriors made him think he has the capital to defeat Wang Zelin.
And this declaration is more like Durant’s unilateral provocation against Wang Zelin, the number one player in the league!
After getting the answer he wanted, the reporter stopped pestering him. After asking a few relatively official questions, he brought back the news without stopping.
On the way, he has even thought about it. It won’t take long for him to be promoted and raise his salary, become the editor-in-chief, marry Bai Fumei, and reach the pinnacle of life… Hehe, I’m a little excited when I think about it!
30 days.
Early this morning, the Warriors flew to Portland to prepare for the game against the Trail Blazers on December 1.
In the market, many people are discussing whether the Golden State Warriors can become real warriors and block the path of the Big Devil Trail Blazers team to 20 consecutive victories?
That’s right, as the Trail Blazers’ record became more and more exaggerated, and after the first two seasons were about to break their own NBA start record, the fans of the other 28 teams finally chose to temporarily put down their love for the Warriors. Battleships are hostile and disaffected.
It’s all to blame for the various media’s praise of the four-star Warriors at the beginning of the season. Fans of other teams almost forgot that the Trail Blazers are the real masters of the league in the past three seasons.
Before the Warriors won the championship to prove themselves, there was only one big boss in the league, and that was the Portland Trail Blazers!
The reason why the Portland dynasty can be established is naturally accompanied by other teams along the way.
But no one wants to be someone’s foil all their lives. Other teams have had enough of the Trail Blazers being superior, and everyone is eager to change the status quo.
So, let’s start with the end of the undefeated myth of the Blazers on December 1st with the Warriors Galaxy Battleship.
Another day passed.
The time has finally come to December 1st, and the battle of the century between the Trail Blazers and the Warriors is about to kick off.
Before the start of the war, the league officials also specially delivered a pre-dinner snack.
To be exact, it added a fire!
On the first day of December, the league officially announced the list of the best players in the East and West in November.
On the Eastern side, LeBron James, who averaged 23.5 points, 8.1 rebounds, 9.4 assists, 1.1 steals, and 0.5 blocks per game, with quasi-triple-double data and led the team with a record of 13 wins and 2 losses, became the Eastern Conference Player of the Month in the first month of the new season. players.
On the west side, in the anticipation of the fans of the western teams, the appearance of a hot man shattered their hopes.
In November, the Trail Blazers started 16 games, averaging 41.7 points, 16.6 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 3.9 blocks and 1 steal per game, and led the team to 16 wins and 0 losses. It is logical that they became the best player in November in the West!
Russell Westbrook ranked second in this Western Conference Player of the Month selection. He averaged 31.2 points, 10.5 rebounds, 11.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.4 blocks per game. The luxury of the data is actually comparable to that of Wang Zelin.
However, the record of 12 wins and 8 losses was not enough for Wang Zelin, and he lost in the end.
Ranked third, fourth, and fifth are Harden, Durant, and Curry. In fact, their overall performance is also very impressive, with top statistics and records. They are included in the single-month schedule of the regular season in the NBA for many years in the past. , UU Reading www.uukanshu.com They will all be rated as the best of the month with a high probability.
It’s a pity that the three of them, like Westbrook, are destined to be reduced to background boards in front of Wang Zelin.
After Wang Zelin heard the news, he sighed deeply.
This is good, there are many “transformation secret” incarnations of brave fans today, both online and offline, maintaining the same caliber, expressing their support for the Warriors to defeat the Blazers, blocking the Blazers’ 20-game winning streak!
After Wang Zelin overwhelmed the pack and won the best of the first month in the Western Conference, whether it is him or the Blazers, the identity of the big boss has also become more and more solid.
Since so many people support the Warriors to win, let him take the Warriors tonight to start the first game of the season between the two teams. In fact, he has been waiting for a long time.
The so-called killing chickens to warn monkeys, four-star warriors are very suitable!
