NBA: James wants to team up with me

The overall situation in the Eastern Conference has been significantly improved compared to previous years. It can basically get rid of the title of strong in the west and weak in the east. The Bulls and Heat led by Wang Chong, Anthony, who came to the east from the west this season, Deron Williams, plus Durant, who originally belonged to the Western Conference, has now moved to the Celtics. It can be said that the Eastern Conference is full of superstars.

Of course, although the number of stars in the Western Conference has slightly decreased, the overall strength is still quite good. There are still five teams with more than 50 wins this season, which is the same as the Eastern Conference. At the same time, the Houston Rockets are ranked eighth in the Western Conference. With a record of 44 wins, they have an absolute win advantage over the Indiana Pacers, who are eighth in the Eastern Conference with 37 wins.

只能说西部强队的底蕴确实很强，他们的战绩由高到低依次为：60胜22负圣安东尼奥马刺，57胜25负洛杉矶湖人，57胜25负达拉斯小牛，52胜30负俄克拉荷马雷霆，50胜32负丹佛掘金，47胜35负波特兰开拓者，46胜36负新奥尔良黄蜂，44胜38负休斯顿火箭。

The record in the Western Conference seems to have changed very little from the original 10-11 season in Wang Chong's memory, and the rankings are basically the same. The only exception is the Houston Rockets, who are eighth in the Western Conference.

The Rockets were originally supposed to be ranked ninth in the Western Conference, three games behind the eighth-placed Memphis Grizzlies.

But here, although Dayao was injured and stopped, he still played almost 60 games, averaging 18 points and 8 rebounds per game. More importantly, the Grizzlies did not rise here, and only won 30 games in the regular season. Ranked fourth from last in the Western Conference.

The Memphis Grizzlies are one of the worst teams to be cheated by Wang Chong. Not only was Gasol, the team's original core core, drafted away by Wang Chong, but they were also "lucky" to get the No. 1 pick. "Disabled" Auden.

Oden's injury was unpredictable and completely unavoidable. Selecting him directly made the Grizzlies worse. Not only did they not get a good player, but they also lost Mike Conley.

Although Conley has been unknown in the Grizzlies, the biggest news in his career is the sky-high 1.5 million contract signed with the Bulls, but he still has his own strength. Although he is not an All-Star level point guard, as a main force As a starter, Conley has definitely fulfilled his duties as a starting point guard during his 12 years with the Grizzlies. At his peak, he also posted 20+6 star point guard-level statistics in a single season.

Now, without Gasol and Conley, the Grizzlies cannot stand out from the fiercely competitive Western Conference with only Black Bears Zach Randolph and Rudy Gay.

But as a result, the Western Conference playoff pattern will undoubtedly undergo earth-shaking changes.

Because the 10-11 season was the year the Spurs encountered Waterloo. In the first round of the playoffs, as the No. 4 team in the Western Conference, they were defeated by the Memphis Grizzlies, No. 2 in the Western Conference, with a score of :. They were upset in the eighth round. .

Tim Duncan thus became the only superstar among the top ten players in NBA history to be hacked.

But now, the Spurs' opponent has changed from the Grizzlies to the Rockets, and the situation is completely different.

Wang Chong felt that the entire Spurs team had to thank himself, because he directly avoided the possibility of them being hacked.

Even if Dayao is healthy, the Rockets may not be as strong as the Grizzlies in the 10-11 season.

Although the regular season record was only eighth in the Western Conference, the Grizzlies were really strong. Their starting five at the time were point guard Mike Conley, shooting guard Tony Allen, small forward Rudy Gay, and Forward Zach Randolph, center Marc Gasol, and O.J. Mayo, who can charge forward, are on the bench. The lineup is quite complete, with almost no shortcomings except for slightly poor offensive ability.

Looking back at the Rockets, although Dayao can play, the team is full of loopholes. The combination of Aaron Brooks and Kevin Martin on the back line is a defensive black hole. Even if Brooks was injured in the second half of the season, Kyle Lowry replaced him. And he performed well, but he was only a little stronger.

The forward positions are Les Budinger and Luis Scola, plus Dayao at the center position.

Wang Chong couldn't see how the Rockets could defeat the Spurs on the premise that both sides remained healthy.

Not surprisingly, it will be the Spurs who win the first round and qualify for the second round of the playoffs.

In addition, the Oklahoma City Thunder, ranked fourth in the Western Conference, is also worth mentioning. Although the Thunder's three missing players have weakened the Thunder a lot, the combination of Westbrook + Griffin can be regarded as an outstanding young talent. Jun, plus Ray Allen, who joined the Thunder as a free agent last summer and returned home, the Thunder's overall strength is also quite outstanding in the Western Conference.

As for the last member of the Thunder's three young players, James Harden's Clippers are only ranked tenth in the Western Conference.

Harden, who gained the core position of the main force in advance, quickly showed the top potential that the Thunder had not shown in three years.

During his rookie season, Harden scored 16 points and 4 assists. Unfortunately, he was far inferior to Curry and Tyreke Evans in the same period. This season, Harden's personal abilities have improved again. During the regular season, he averaged 20.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game. His performance was quite amazing.

Among the 09 rookies, Harden is the only player who averaged 20+ points per game in his second year. Excluding the first-year season reimbursement, Griffin is only in his first year this year. The 09 rookies include Curry. Failed to average 20+ points per game.

In the first half of the season, Curry averaged a steady 21 points per game. However, due to repeated ankle sprains, which affected his condition, Curry's condition declined. In the end, his regular season score was fixed at 19.4 points, failing to exceed 20.

As for Tyreke Evans, another player who averaged 20+5+5 in his rookie season, he only averaged 17.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 5.6 assists this season. Evans’ situation is similar to Curry’s, and he also suffered Due to injuries, he missed more games than Curry and only played 57 games in the regular season.

The difference is that Curry drives low and goes high. After two years of trough, he quickly rose to become the league's top superstar, while Ellis, after his brilliant performance in his rookie season, was like Wang Xiaoer during the New Year. Likewise, each year is not as good as the other, and his personal data steadily declines year by year, eventually turning from a high-profile potential star into a nobody.

When both Curry and Evans failed to average 20+ points per game, Harden's 20+6 points per game seemed so precious, and it also made the Clippers more determined to use Harden as the main core. .

After the regular season, Wang Chong averaged 29 points per game and won the league's scoring title for the second time. This is the sixth consecutive year that he has won the scoring crown, ranking second in the league. He has scored seven times. The King's Wilt Chamberlain is only one scoring trophy away.

The average of 29 points per game is the lowest among all the scoring champions Wang Chong has won, and he is also the only scoring champion whose average points per game are less than 30+, but it does not hinder the gold content of this scoring champion.
