MTL - NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal-v2 Chapter 1036 The gold content of Dong 1 Holdings

After one night, there was little preparation time, and at 8 p.m., the Blazers played back-to-back away games against the Washington Wizards.

Before this game, the Blazers' record came to 22 wins and 1 loss, which is still extremely exaggerated. The current record of the Wizards is only 8 wins and 13 losses, and they frequently wander back and forth in the three rankings of 8, 9, and 10 in the Eastern Conference.

If you don't open your eyes, no matter who looks at it, the Blazers will basically win this game.

But the result is that the mid-range team in the Eastern Conference and the active No. 1 team played against each other for the first time in the season, and the Trail Blazers lost!

102:113, I lost a lot. The 102 points is also the lowest score in a single game for the Blazers this season, lower than the 105:98 victory over the Mavericks on November 3 with 7 points.

Bill scored 28 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, Wall scored 39 points, 7 rebounds and 13 assists in a quasi-triple-double, and Kelly Ombre on the bench scored 19 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist and 3 steals.

For the Blazers, Wang Zelin made 16 of 28 shots, including 3 of 8 three-pointers and 7 of 9 free throws. Although his scoring and efficiency were higher than Wall's, he scored 42 points, but the game was lost!

The reason for the loss in this game is similar to the previous loss to the Bulls. On the one hand, it is because of the ups and downs of the other players of the Blazers, and on the other hand, it is because of the opponent's excellent performance.

The first reason is actually not difficult to understand. This is the habitual disease of many strong teams after their long winning streak is suddenly ended. In the next few games, the state of the players often fluctuates, making it difficult to figure out.

This is why many teams, after a long winning streak, often usher in several losing streaks once they are terminated.

It is already a blessing that the Blazers have not suffered a losing streak, and it also reflects Wang Zelin's strong ability to cover the bottom line.

In contrast, the second reason is more critical.

The combination of Wall and Bill is seriously underestimated.

At least for now, this is how it feels to Wang Zelin.

In the original time and space, the 2016-17 season was the year when Wall's personal performance reached its pinnacle. In this season, Wall in his previous life not only showed his all-around skill of averaging 23.1 points, 10.7 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2 steals per game, but also his comprehensive offensive and defensive efficiency and game influence. The best of my career.

In addition, Bradley Beal has also grown into an active quasi-first-rate scorer averaging about 25 points per game this season, and the Wizards have completely become a true dual-core team.

It's just that in memory, the Wizards experienced a period of running-in in the first half of the season, and they didn't catch up until after the All-Star weekend.

This trend has been maintained from the edge of the Eastern Conference playoffs to the end of the season. In the end, under the leadership of the two-gun combination, the Wizards played the best regular season record of 49 wins and 33 losses in team history, and were able to advance to the playoffs as the fourth in the Eastern Conference. .

In the playoffs, they made it to the semifinals, and after seven games with the Eastern Division runner-up Celtics, they regretted losing.

That's why Wang Zelin said that the Wizards' double guns in the backcourt are seriously underestimated at this stage.

Due to the mediocre record, the outside world has often commented that the Wizards are a brush combination. After the second half of the season, the Wizards will slap them in the face.

It was also in this season that John Wall was infinitely close to the position of the number one point guard in the East.

If it weren't for the sudden birth of Isaiah Thomas, it would not be an exaggeration to call Wall the first control of the East.

It's a pity not if...

The starting point guard of other strong teams in the East.

Kyrie Irving?

In the Cavaliers, even the second child status may not be able to compete with Cousins.

Derek Rose?

Although the youngest mvp in the past did not wither ahead of time due to a series of injuries, he was unable to overcome the impact of injuries after all, and his strength declined very quickly. Now he has given up the position of the Bulls' star to the younger and stronger Anthony Davis.

Kyle Lowry?

A representative of late bloomers, currently averaging 22+7+5 per game, but the Raptors are lonely in the north, and have been neglected all year round. In addition, Lowry's own star flavor is not enough, which is a typical example of strength over fame.

The rest, like Kemba Walker and Jeff Teague, are not as good as Rose, Irving, and Lowry, so why are they talking about competing for control?

】

Now the competition in Dongyi Control mainly revolves around Wall and Thomas Jr.

…

…

Lost against the Wizards for the first time in the new season. If you want to say how much it hurts the Trail Blazers...it’s really nothing. Losing always loses. No team in history has been invincible throughout the regular season .

The first match of the season is even more difficult to control. Compared to the Wizards who attach great importance to their Trail Blazers, the Trail Blazers have more powerful enemies to focus on, making them unable to focus on the Wizards. body.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the Trail Blazers' defending plan this season, there is not even a figure of the Wizards.

It's just that after the loss, the pressure on the team must have become greater.

Don't look at the fact that many fans on the Internet are making fun of it. The first match between the Wizards and the Trail Blazers cannot be viewed as just an ordinary regular season, but the Trail Blazers headed by Wang Zelin. A targeted poverty alleviation.

On a bigger scale, Wang Zelin chose to let go of the sea in order to maintain the friendship between China and Mimi, sacrificing the ego and fulfilling the ego.

emmm... Mr. Wang just wants to say: Ah yes yes yes!

Of course, Wang Zelin is not a Shawian netizen, and he knows that the Wizards team is not as weak as it seems on the surface, so he naturally ignored the Shawon's remarks on the Internet.

The Wizards somehow made it to the second round of the Eastern Conference in their previous life, and it was not an ordinary second round. In the end, they made it to the tiebreaker before losing by 10 points.

After returning to the hotel, under his suggestion, the coaching staff increased the emphasis on the Wizards, and held a post-match meeting in the hotel conference room to analyze tonight's game.

The first is Bradley Beal, one of the two guns of the Wizards. This guy is improving every year.

In the 2014-15 season, although Bill was only a player who averaged 15 points per game, his 52.1% true shooting percentage and 3.7 win shares proved that his ability was at least above the level of the same position in active service.

Last season, Bill averaged 17 points per game, his offensive efficiency continued to improve, his shooting percentage reached 44.9%, and his true shooting percentage reached 54.7%.

He has improved again this season, setting career highs in all statistics. The basic data came to an average of 23 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.3 blocks per game.

Among them, the shooting percentage soared to 48.2%, and the three-point shooting percentage remained above 40%. He can be called a sharpshooter, and his true shooting percentage also broke through to a career high of 60.4%.

After analyzing the data performance of Bill in the past three seasons, the unanimous opinion of the coaching staff is:

The No. 3 Wizards is greatly underestimated!

In terms of the combat effectiveness of players at the same position in active service, Bill is enough to be among the top ten shooting guards in active service.

Then they analyzed Wall and found that Wall also ushered in the best year of his career. First of all, with a career-high ball usage rate of 30.6%, he basically maintained an average of 23+10+4 per game. +2 or so stats.

1st in the league in steals, 2nd in assists, 12th in field goals per game, 17th in field goals per game, 17th in long serve, 22nd in scoring...

Wall this season is indeed a bit of a big-core play with the ball.

Although many people in the previous life said that this style of play is difficult to go long in the playoffs, but in the regular season, the big core play with the ball can indeed greatly improve the team's lower limit.

In many cases, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com As long as the "big core" is strong, the team can always achieve a good record in the regular season.

After this battle, the Blazers' record became 22 wins and 2 losses, still leading the league.

The Wizards' record has improved to 9 wins and 13 losses.

However, this game is of great significance to Wall.

Because under the background of the Trail Blazers, Wall, who played a quasi-40+ triple-double with extremely high gold content, became famous again. It also became louder.

Faintly, almost overwhelmed little Thomas.

After all, compared to Thomas Jr., who has suddenly emerged this season, Wall, who was born as the No. 1 pick, has accumulated much better accumulation in the past few years than Thomas Jr..

In the eyes of many fans, Wall has gradually grown into today's No. 1 point guard in the Eastern Conference step by step, and the feelings he pours into him are different.

How else could the cultivation system be so popular in the future?
