MTL - NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal-v2 Chapter 1016 The customer service is over, and the exclamation continues
On the night of the 17th, the Trail Blazers left Space City and headed to New Orleans overnight.
On the 18th, the Trail Blazers started their 14th regular-season game.
Counting from the New Orleans Hornets, the predecessor of the Pelicans, since Paul left New Orleans in 2011, the city has not made the playoffs for 5 consecutive years.
At the 2012 NBA Draft, local fans in New Orleans thought they were lucky enough to select the then "Son of America" Anthony Davis, and the team would surely usher in a rise.
Unexpectedly, Davis not only failed to bring the Pelicans back to the playoffs, but chose to "escape" New Orleans in the summer of 2015.
Sons of America abandoned the city!
Under the leadership of Jimmy Butler and Josh Smith, the Pelicans failed to make the playoffs last year and are 10th in the Western Conference. Josh Smith suffered another serious injury this season. Now the team's only hope is on Jimmy Butler. .
However, the ball market in New Orleans is mediocre after all, and the team management didn't catch any big fish this summer. It is difficult for Butler to gain a foothold in the Wild West by himself.
In terms of personal data, Butler has played quite a tough performance. With the blessing of absolute possession of the ball, Butler's scoring average has reached a career high of 24.4 points. If he continues to play, he may not be able to enter the 25-point club in the season. .
Other statistics are also quite good, averaging 6.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.9 steals and 0.8 blocks per game, which is also a new career high.
This year, Butler is likely to usher in the second All-Star tour of his career.
But in terms of team record, it is very bad.
In the first 14 games, the Pelicans' record was only 4 wins and 10 losses, and they were at the bottom of the Western Conference. For them, the playoffs are still as difficult to reach as castles in the air.
According to some gossip, Butler expressed serious dissatisfaction with the current situation of the team and is currently seeking the possibility of trading to other teams.
Never underestimate the pride in Jiba's heart. In the future, he proved that he is the toughest man in the league!
Seeing that he was about to fail to make the playoffs for two consecutive years, the hardest man in the league couldn't help venting to the team management.
Tonight, the Blazers are coming, no doubt adding a handful of salt to his wounds.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the Blazers played back-to-back against the Pelicans.
As expected, the Blazers sealed the victory in three quarters.
Wang Zelin made 18 of 25 shots, including 1 of 2 three-pointers, plus free throws, and scored 41 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists in less than 30 minutes!
After he screened without the ball, he encountered unguarded and easy shots many times. The Pelicans players seemed to no longer want to win.
No, to be precise, except for Jimmy Butler and Jrue Holiday who still maintain a strong fighting spirit, the other players are like eggplants that have been frosted.
Today's Pelicans are a mess, and no one can save them.
In less than two years, they have experienced a series of turmoil such as the departure of the core team, major injuries, and changes in the tactical system.
The hearts of the people are scattered, and the team is not easy to lead!
After a day of rest, the No. 20 Trail Blazers continued their road trip, and they will have two games in New York next.
At 8:00 p.m. on the 20th, Wang Zelin and his teammates came to the Barclays Center, home of the Brooklyn Nets.
Obviously sitting on the most luxurious and advanced stadium in the league, and the team owner pays the highest luxury tax in the league every year, but the Nets have been playing **** like records in recent years.
So far, the Nets have a record of 5 wins and 10 losses, ranking bottom in the East, and the playoffs have basically nothing to do with them.
This game is the first time the Trail Blazers came to New York this season, and the starting guard of the Nets is Jeremy Lin, a rare yellow figure in the league, so the script of Jeremy Lin VS Wang Zelin + Yi Jianlian was quickly hyped by the media.
Unsurprisingly, tonight was scheduled to be a full-meter live broadcast, and the Nets owner Mikhail Prokhov came to the scene to watch the game.
I thought it was a full-time live broadcast, and the Nets players would have to hesitate in front of the full-meter fans and their own boss, but after the game started, Prokhov's face became more and more ugly.
After the first quarter, the Trail Blazers led by double digits 32:21.
After halftime, the point difference between the two sides further widened, and the score came to 70:54.
In the third quarter, the Trail Blazers started a wave and scored 20 points in less than 5 minutes, widening the point difference between the two sides to 24 points, completely wasting the game.
At the end of the game, the Trail Blazers easily won the Nets with a big score advantage of 30 points at 139:109 away.
The moment the final whistle ended, everyone could clearly see Prokhov, the Nets' Mao Xiongguo, with a livid face. He tried his best to suppress the monstrous anger, and immediately got up and left the arena.
Seeing this scene, Wang Zelin always had a feeling of deja vu.
I don't know if the Nets are poisonous?
Whether it is the current owner Prokhov or the future owner Cai Chongxin, when they first took over the Nets, they were full of ambitions and wanted to do a great job.
As a result... I was really slapped in the face by reality!
Paying the highest luxury tax in the league, the Nets, not to mention the championship, have never even touched the floor of the Eastern Conference Finals.
The entire Nets team used the cruel reality to teach the two rich owners a good lesson, and a rich version of "Rookie, welcome to the NBA!"
After regaining his senses, Wang Zelin joined the team celebrating wildly.
After this battle, the Nets' record of 5 wins and 11 losses leads the entire Eastern Conference in reverse, and they are all focused on launching a dive for next year's No. 1 pick!
Oh, I forgot to mention one thing. The Nets have sent out draft picks over the years. Other teams really thank the Nets for their meritorious general manager Billy King.
Especially the management of the Green Army, they had to knock a few times to Billy King to show their gratitude like a surging river deep in their hearts!
Take a look at how "against the sky" Billy King's operations have been over the past few years.
As far as the deal between the Nets and the Celtics in the summer of 2013 is concerned: With Gerald Wallace, Chris, Humphreys, Brooks, Joseph Gambos, 2014, 2016, 2018 draft picks and 2017 first-round pick swaps Right, in exchange for Paul Pierce, Jason Terry, Brandon Bass, Jordan Crawford, DJ White and others.
Result: The Celtics used the 2014 draft pick James Young, the 2016 draft pick to select Brian Ingram, and the 2017 draft pick to select Fultz, and then traded to the 75ers for Tanhua Tatu Hum, the 18-year draft pick traded to the Cavaliers in exchange for Kyrie Irving...
Look at this series of tricks, the reason why the Green Army was able to rise rapidly in the previous life, not only reached the division finals one after another, but also made it to the finals. Among these many achievements, Billy King should at least take half of the credit.
Low EQ statement: Billy King is just a pure undercover agent, he will be fired immediately!
High emotional intelligence statement: Billy King is indeed the biggest behind-the-scenes player in the league in recent years. After a few waves of transactions, he easily changed the pattern of the entire Eastern Conference and even the entire league. Not for the rain!
All in all, because Billy King is so smart, the Nets can feel at ease as a big wronged, and just work for the Green Army.
The Trail Blazers started with a 15-game winning streak, leading the league with an astonishing record!
…
On the 21st, the team rest day.
Ajiali came to New York from Sacramento, just to have a good day with Wang Zelin.
It was precisely because she was busy preparing for the "Victoria's Secret" catwalk on December 1 that Ajiali found an opening to get in.
The last encounter in the Shura field has already made Ajiali go all out
She didn't believe it anymore. If she wanted to have a good figure, a good appearance, and a good background, she still couldn't compete with Kendall Jenner.
The hardest thing to bear is beauty!
The other girl took the initiative to attack, how could he, Mr. Wang, be cowardly?
During the day, I accompanied Ajiali in Times Square in New York for an afternoon, and contributed a lot of material to the paparazzi.
In the evening, the two went in and out of the hotel in pairs, and they were on the hot search list again.
You don't need to think about it, you know, the next time you meet Kendou, he will definitely be sure to scold him.
But Wang Zelin is now completely disregarding it. How many male girlfriends can other girls have, so what about how many female buddies he has?
Isn't it reasonable!
I didn't steal, I didn't rob, and I didn't get married. The girls took the initiative to attack. In order not to violate the principles of the "Women's Hospital", what's the matter with cooperating?
From now on, Wang Zelin will only keep one principle in mind: don't take the initiative, don't refuse, and don't take responsibility...but you can cooperate!
After all, I can't go against the wishes of women.
After playing in Times Square for a day, both of them were a little tired after returning to the hotel, and they just dealt with it casually for dinner.
Just when Wang Zelin thought it would be a peaceful and peaceful night... There was a sudden movement in the quilt.
Only then did he realize that he was wrong again!
…
…
Nothing to say all night.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, Ajiali appeared at the Trail Blazers training ground with Wang Zelin with a ruddy complexion.
Sensing the strange gazes from his teammates, Wang Zelin looked very frank. He went to the locker room to change into training clothes, and accompanied by Ajiali, he started the morning training.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, the NBA officially announced the winners of the East and West Player of the Week for the fourth week of the season and the third week of November.
In the East, Cousins has had a big explosion in the past week, averaging 30.7 points, 14.3 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 2 blocks per game, and his shooting percentage has reached an astonishing 55.3%.
And the Cavaliers also won all three games, which allowed Cousins to finally defeat a group of strong players in the Eastern Conference and win the first honor of the week two years late.
Why are you two years late?
It's not because Cousins has been in the Kings team in the West before. Under the influence of a shameless hanging b, even Curry and Durant have not been involved in the regular season MVP, let alone the best of the week honor.
After Cousins escaped from the West, he finally had a hard time, and his development trajectory was much stronger than that of the original time and space.
On the west side, last week's best of the week winners were mainly two favorites, one was Kevin Durant and the other was Wang Zelin.
The former helped the Warriors win 4 games and 4 wins in the past week. At the same time, his personal statistics also included 24.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1 steal and 2.8 blocks. %!
From the perspective of an outside player and a shooter, Durant's offensive efficiency has reached the point of inhumanity.
The only fly in the ointment is that the output is slightly low.
As a result, he lost to the Blazers No. 36 again as expected.
Last week, the Trail Blazers defeated the three teams of Mosaic, Pelicans and Nets in a row, averaging a terrifying 132.7 points per game, and suppressing their opponents to an average of 101 points per game.
This brought the Trail Blazers' average point difference in the past three games to an extremely exaggerated 29.7 points!
There are no underdogs in the NBA!
This is a famous saying that has been circulating in the NBA world for a long time!
The same is true of the fact that the net difference between the two teams in a game can exceed 5 points or 10 points.
As a result, the Trail Blazers are now averaging nearly 30 points per game!
The key point is that the opponents in these three games are not all weak teams. Among them, the Houston Mosaic team is definitely the top power in the league, and then this is a three-game streak, and there is a back-to-back game in it...
Under the challenges of various harsh conditions, the Trail Blazers created a miracle!
And the player who led the Blazers to create this miracle was none other than Wang Zelin!
In the past three games, Wang Zelin averaged 41.3 points, 20.7 rebounds, 4 assists, 4.3 blocks and 1 steal per game, and his shooting percentage exceeded 70%!
The team record and personal data are all infinitely close to perfection, and even the pickiest fans can't find any faults.
In the end, amid the sighs of the Warriors fans and the exclamation of a larger number of team fans, Wang Zelin won the best of the week for three consecutive weeks.
If nothing else, he will then become the first player of the month in the Western Conference after the start of the new season.
In the latest MVP rankings of major authoritative media, Wang Zelin continued to beat the pack and topped the list.
In this regard, the outside world continued to exclaim.
Whether it is on the major social media in North America or domestic forum posts, there are discussions on the feasibility of Wang Zelin continuing to win the MVP.
On the North American side, the fans suddenly felt that the world was too crazy.
"Could it be that the Easterner is going to win the MVP for four consecutive seasons?"
"Are you kidding me? Even the great "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan never did this kind of thing!"
"Even "Big Bird" Larry Bird has only done it once, for three consecutive years."
"That's the MVP of the regular season!"
In the minds of every NBA player, the regular season MVP trophy basically symbolizes the supreme personal honor in the NBA world. Players who can win the regular season MVP are all first-class super bosses in history.
It is not easy to get one, and there are only a handful of history to get two... Now, that Chinese center is about to get his hands on the fourth? !
The magical magic from the East has turned the NBA upside down.
…
Wang Zelin didn't take the heated discussion from the outside world seriously. After celebrating with his teammates for winning another best honor of the week, the whole team once again immersed themselves in a state of active preparation.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the last game of the Trail Blazers' four consecutive away games in mid-November is about to start.
If the Nets have been wasting money in the past few years, then the Knicks are the biggest injustice since the NBA entered the new century, none of them!
Probably no one would have thought that such a pair of crouching dragons and phoenixes could be gathered together in the tiny New York City of UU Reading www.uukanshu.com!
But even so, it can't stand the fact that God is rewarding the food, no, it should be said that God is chasing and feeding.
The collapse of the record for ten years has not affected the Knicks in the slightest as the team with the highest market value in the league.
Really make money standing up!
Tonight, the Blazers played the game in just halftime, and the point difference widened to 24 points.
In the second half, Wang Zelin played for another 4 minutes, and after scoring 31 points, he returned to the court to concentrate on flirting with Ajiali.
According to Ajiali, during this period of time, she reviewed the past and learned something new, and recalled some new knowledge. She plans to have a good exchange and study with him tonight.
Of course, Mr. Wang was in favor of this, and he immediately had the urge to learn Hindi again!
