I really play basketball

Chapter 212 The Guide and the Unlucky One

In the last three games in November, three consecutive away.

Celtics, 76ers and Raptors, the three major tanks in the East.

The so-called tank means that this type of team only focuses on one thing-taking a beating.

They have no interest in winning at all, and only one idea is in their minds:
Lose, the more you lose, the better!
This is what is commonly known as rotten.

In addition to these three teams, the Eastern Conference's worst teams include the Bucks.

In contrast, the West is much better, and there is only one really bad team-the rookie Grizzlies.

However, a total of five teams in one season are bad, which can be regarded as a grand occasion.

In these three games, the Warriors won very easily.

I clocked in two games and three quarters, and clocked out at halftime in one game.

After these three games, the teammates were a little skeptical about life.

"It's too easy, isn't it?"

"Three bad teams, we shouldn't be so serious."

"Why are they so bad?"

The lunatic scratched his head, he had seen it before, but he had never seen anything as crazy as this season.

Lin Xing shook his head. He knew that this year's five teams in the NBA were poor, which is still a small number.

Next season, that's going to be crazy.

However, the poor performance of many teams in the past two years is all for the same person.

"For Wake Forest's junior forward, Tim Duncan."

"Tim Duncan, who is that?"

In the second year after Lin Xing left the NCAA, Duncan joined Wake Forest.

In his rookie season in the NCAA, Duncan averaged 9.8 points, 9.6 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 3.8 blocks per game.

At that time, if Duncan participated in the NBA, it is estimated that he would enter the lottery.

By the second grade, Duncan got more playing time and more possessions.

With an average of 16.8 points, 12.5 rebounds, 2.8 steals and 4.2 blocks per game, the NBA began to pursue him.

But after all, when all this happened, it was when last season was in full swing.

No team can change its goal halfway, and it will be bad once it is changed.

Therefore, there were almost no bad teams last season, only really bad teams.

By the new season, every team interested in Duncan has started to act.

They didn't know that Duncan had to finish four years of college before he came out to participate in the draft.

Therefore, these teams that performed poorly this year did not place themselves in the right direction.

But if you say it's wrong, it's not that bad, after all, the 96 draft is the so-called golden generation draft.

Among the few teams that have performed poorly this season, the Celtics are the most outrageous.

Last season, they relied on Dominique Wilkins and made the playoffs.

As a result, as soon as the summer came, the Celtics let Wilkins go, and the cards were broken.

Worst of all are the two rookies, the Grizzlies and Raptors, which are the real suckers.

The most natural is the 76ers. Take the game between the Warriors and the 76ers as an example——

Lin Xing didn't even make a move, and a madman defended the second place man Jerry Stackhouse with 27 for 6 and smashed 21 irons.

At that time, Lin Xing was stunned: "This shit, I know that Stackhouse can forge iron, but I really didn't expect that he can forge iron like this!"

So far in the new season, Jerry Stackhouse's shooting percentage is only 37.1%, which is terrible.

"The 76ers are so bad, it really depends on Stackhouse!"

Lin Xing involuntarily gave the 76ers a thumbs up, as expected of the 76ers who later believed in the process.

It's so rotten, it's so reasonable these days.

While being able to lose streak, it can also allow Stackhouse to fire infinitely.

Stackhouse swings, maybe he can become Jordan...

Regardless of what others think, anyway, the 76ers' management thinks so.

By next year, Duncan will participate in the NBA. They can form a combination of Jordan (junior) and Duncan inside and outside. Isn't that invincible?

……

From the east back to the west, November is over.

From October to November, the Warriors did not lose a single game, taking off a super long winning streak of 10 consecutive victories.

Among them, in November, the Warriors played 11 games and won all 13 games.

13场比赛，林星场均26.7分9.5个篮板7.8个助攻3.2个抢断1.5个盖帽，拿到了新赛季第一个月的月最佳。

The gold content of the best month in these years is quite high, because there is no distinction between east and west, and there is only one month.

After one season, there are only 6. The so-called rare is the most expensive, that's what it means.

November is over, and the All-Star voting has begun.

Lin Xing, who led the team to play a dominant performance, is naturally the favorite in the All-Star game.

In the first game in December, before the home game against the Pacers, Lin Xing was interviewed and answered questions about the All-Star Weekend.

"I definitely won't participate in the slam dunk contest. I already announced it last season."

"Three-point contest? I don't shoot many three-pointers. Why would you want me to participate in the three-point contest? Why don't you ask Tang Yeer..."

In the last few games of November, Marshall appeared more and more from the three-point line.

He is shooting more and more three-pointers, and he is becoming more and more like a space four.

"All-Star vote champion? Maikou? To be honest, I've already won the vote twice in a row, and I'm not interested in this honor without a trophy..."

Why did the reporter mention Danzi?It's not because Danzi, like Lin Xing, is at the top of the league.

To be honest, if the strength shown by the Bulls in the new season is the same as in the opening game, even if Danzi is top-notch, he will not be able to compete with Lin Xing for the top ticket.

It's not that performance is so important, it's mainly because Danzi's comeback last season failed to overwhelm Lin Xing.

In the new season, Danzi is already coming back for the second season. Looking at Danzi who is no longer at his peak, why should he overwhelm Lin Xing?

So, now that Danzi can compete with Lin Xing for the vote, it means——

The Bulls are doing pretty well right now.

The actual situation is that the Bulls' record is not only good, it is simply an explosion.

Although Rodman was gone, Otis Thorpe made up for Rodman's vacancy to a certain extent.

Zen master holds more than ten rings in his hand, and has reached the stage of great success in terms of employing people.

With Rodman in hand, the Bulls play more defensively.

Rodman not only has superb rebounds, but his single defense and assist defense are also top-notch.

Switched to Thorpe, rebounding, single defense and help defense almost mean nothing.

But Thorpe, at his peak, is also a top insider with 20+10, and his offense is more than one gear better than Rodman.

Therefore, this season, the Bulls played a bit offensively.

10月+11月，公牛合计出战了16场比赛，12胜4负。

There is definitely a gap compared to the Warriors, but compared to other teams in the league, this record is already outstanding.

With a record of 12 wins and 4 losses, the Bulls have been able to ensure that the Bulls rank first in the East and third in the league, second only to the Warriors and the Sonics.

This result is enough for Danzi to say proudly: "I have returned to the peak, and my team has also completed the run-in..."

However, Lin Xing is happy to see the Bulls have a good record and Dan Zi has performed well.

Because this means that their opening game against the Bulls at the beginning of the season has a lot of gold to win.

"In the opening game, they easily defeated the third player in the league so far this season. How high is the gold content of this victory!"

In fact, after the 15-game winning streak, Lin Xing really had a feeling——

With him at his peak, Mourning at his peak, and a good team, this team of warriors is truly invincible.

"The opportunity is big, the opportunity is really big."

……

The Warriors' winning streak lasted until mid-December, when they challenged the Jazz in an away game, and they unexpectedly lost.

So far, the Warriors' winning streak has lasted 21 games.

In these 21 games, they defeated the second-ranked Magic in the East and the third-ranked Pacers in the East at home.

Also won a game at home against the Pistons on the fringes of the playoffs...

Yes, that's right, the Pistons, which were still bad last season, have rushed to the edge of the playoffs this season.

This is related to the poor environment of several teams in the East, and also related to their improvement in strength.

Grant Hilga Great Improvement Alan Houston Plus Prospect Rasheed Wallace...  

Regardless of other things, at least in terms of talent, the Pistons are almost overflowing.

It is the bad team culture of Hill, Alan Houston and the Pistons, which is a bit out of place.

Rasheed Wallace, on the other hand, adapted very well from the moment he arrived.

就因为适应的好，新秀赛季的拉希德·华莱士场均也有14.6分6.2个篮板2.5个助攻1.0个抢断1.2个盖帽入账。

With this performance, there is a chance to compete for the best rookie.

After all, this year's rookies played a bit tepidly.

After winning the Pistons, the Warriors won another game against the Heat at home, and thus bid farewell to their good brother Xiao Chong this season.

After a wave of four consecutive home games, the Warriors ushered in another wave of two consecutive away games.

An away game against the Supersonics can be regarded as a battle for the top spot in the league.

Although the Warriors' loss does not affect their league's top spot, the media just played the above headlines.

This game can also be regarded as a fierce battle, mainly because the Sonics played a bit defensively this season.

Payton teamed up with McMillan to defend Lin Xing enough.

Fortunately, at the basket, Mourning fought hard and won a victory.

Although Lin Xing played a bit hip-stretched in this game, Lin Xing didn't care because——

The Warriors traded Mourning for a game like this. He was locked up tactically, so Mourning had to stand up.

If Mourning doesn't stand up, isn't that little bug's sacrifice in vain?

Mourning stood up in this game, which is a good thing.

This means that the Warriors' internal and external dual-core system has been formed.

But since then, the back-to-back Lien Chan Jazz has highlighted Mourning's problem again.

"In this game, Alonzo Mourning was severely restricted by Karl Malone, and there was no chance for singles at the basket..."

To be honest, after playing for more than a month in the new season, Lin Xing discovered Mourning's flaws.

Although Mourning's wingspan is huge, coupled with outstanding defensive predictions, Mourning's blocking, frame protection, assist defense and supplementary defense are all outstanding, but Mourning's single defense ability is really not very good.

Of course, the so-called single defense is not very good, and that is compared with the four major centers.

It seems that the problem is not big, but the actual problem is big!
Because the Warriors bought Mourning in order to play the four major centers.

Defense is the tip of the iceberg, what matters more is offense.

Mourning's offense is stronger than Uncle Mu's, that's for sure.

But strength is also limited. Simply put, Mourning is good at everything, but not good at anything.

Also, offensive options are a bit problematic.

During this period, the Warriors increased the proportion of Mourning on the offensive end.

As a result, Lin Xing could always see that Mourning hit his opponent with his back deep in the basket. He couldn't break through the defense, but he kept holding on, and finally came a pointless turn and back shot.

Of course, the result must be a strike, not a hit.

In fact, Lin Xing can also understand.

If Mourning's offense is really that good, he can squeeze out Ewing and become one of the four major centers.

Or with Ewing, tied for the top five centers.

There is a reason why he can't enter the circle of the four major centers.

It can only be said that Mourning is not that good, but for the Warriors, it is enough.

It is human nature to lose the Jazz. After all, they are fighting back to back, and their physical fitness has reached their limit.

Losing the Jazz ended the Warriors' 21-game winning streak.

After that, several opponents of the Warriors were not difficult.

Therefore, their focus quickly turned to the Christmas battle.

On December 12, the Warriors beat the Grizzlies in an away game.

On the 18th, it was another back-to-back, but the Warriors fought at home and defeated the Hornets, starting another winning streak.

On the 20th, the Warriors played against the Nuggets in an away game. Similarly, they took two offenses and defenses, and one more, winning three consecutive victories.

On the 22nd, in the last game before the Christmas game, the Warriors played against the Washington Bullets from afar.

The so-called not seeing each other for a day is like three autumns.

Lin Xing and Webb hadn't seen each other for a while, and when they met again, Webb was already the head of the Eastern Conference playoff team.

That's right, this season, the Bullets have also taken advantage of the trend.

Their three-core system is very stable. Weber is the core, responsible for attacking and organizing offenses. Little Flying Squirrel Stoudemire is responsible for scoring points and key goals in chaotic battles. Uncle Huo is the assistant for the two.

Coupled with the tough big center George Muresan at the basket, this Bullet can be considered to be both offensive and defensive, and its record is even better than that of the Heat led by Xiao Chong.

"It has been bad for a few years, and the bullets have also risen."

Lin Xing, a latecomer, knew that Weber's peak was in the king.

But the little butterfly flapping its wings has greatly changed history.

Who can guarantee that Webb will not succeed in the bullet?

You must know that the current team configuration of the Bullets is very similar to the future Kings.

But in this game, the Warriors still won.

Because of this bullet, there is still an important person missing-Rick Adelman.

The Warriors won another wave of four consecutive victories, and with a winning streak, they began to welcome the Christmas battle with the Rockets.

Compared with the Warriors who have 25 wins and only 1 loss so far this season, they are in a hot state.

The state of the Rockets is terrible.

Not only is the record only 14 wins and 12 losses, but even the glider is determined to miss the Christmas battle due to injuries.

The only thing that can give the Houstonians a little confidence is that there is nothing wrong with the state of the big dream so far this season.

场均26.3分10.3个篮板3.8个助攻1.8个抢断2.9个盖帽，仍然是超巨级别的发挥和表现。

But the problem is, this time, the Warriors came prepared.

They have more Mourning, as well as the young Great Pyrenees, the experienced old chief, and the energetic Rodman...

Before the Christmas battle, Xiao Chong, who was on vacation, was called back to the Bay Area by Lin Xing.

It's not about getting together between brothers, but, he has to take Xiao Chong to Silicon Valley.

His investment in Netscape at the beginning has already paid off at this time.

He felt that it was necessary to bring Xiao Chong, the guide, and the unlucky guy who missed the opportunity to make a fortune.

Go to Silicon Valley to see what crazy Internet money making is.
