275 The sturdy grizzly and the arrogant silver wolf!
After another day of rest, the Trail Blazers, who had won 14 consecutive victories, met the challenge of the Pelicans at home.
The battle for the shot-blocking title between Zhou Si and Davis last season seems like yesterday. Now Zhou Si has launched an attack on his first MVP and first championship, and Davis...
Still competing with Zhou Si for the shot-blocking king...
In fact, Davis is also very aggrieved. He originally had no intention of blocking shots. Zhou Si, who only wanted to lead the team to win, has been surpassed by him on the block list. Who knew that the 76ers were so good at giving away shots? In just one game, Zhou Si's
The average number of blocks per game increased by nearly 0.5!
Who are you trying to reason with?
Back to business.
This year's Pelicans team is very exciting. They are as competitive as last season's Pistons team in that they have accumulated a lot of troops in the paint.
People who don’t know think they are going to kill the Five Great Deaths!
After Noel returned from injury, together with Nong Mei and Anderson, they have assembled a trio that is both offensive and defensive inside.
But I don’t know if they were afraid that the glass-like attributes of Davis, Anderson or Noel would continue to explode. Not only did they draft Randle, they also spent a lot of money to trade for Asik from the Rockets.
Emmm…
The depth of the inside line is really beyond words.
The inside line is good, but the Pelicans' outside line... is hard to describe.
During the game, looking at Evans, who was much shorter than himself, Zhou Si couldn't help but make various three-pointers.
In addition to Zhous, Matthews also scored several three-pointers today. Eric Gordon is also quite impressive among shooting guards.
102:117!
The Trail Blazers easily defeated the Pelicans, extending their winning streak to 15 games.
After the game, Zhou Si also specifically chatted with Noel. The top pick in the same class as him is not having a satisfactory life now, averaging only 12 minutes of playing time per game.
It was a day where the ball was going up, how could it be possible to win like this?
But everyone has his own life, and Zhou Si is not the savior, so he can't help him!
Just when everyone was wishing in advance that the Trail Blazers would tie the winning streak in team history, a group of arrogant and strong men came to Portland.
Hey, want to use us as a backdrop?
Show your strength!
…
Without warning, the Blazers' winning streak finally stopped at fifteen games.
At the end of the game, all the fans in the Rose Garden Arena and in front of the TV couldn't believe their eyes. Did we lose, or did we lose to the Grizzlies?
Grizzly Bear: Who are you looking down on?
If the dark horse at the beginning of the league was the Timberwolves, the biggest dark horse recently is the Grizzly Bear.
Before this game, their record of 13 wins and 2 losses was only inferior to the Trail Blazers, and the Warriors, with 14 wins and 1 loss, were ranked third in the Western Conference!
It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the team that has given the most surprises to fans this season besides the Trail Blazers.
Of course, this is limited to Grizzlies fans. Fans of other teams don't like to watch the Grizzlies' slow, old-fashioned basketball.
But as time goes by, it really works!
The defensive battle between the Trail Blazers and the Bulls, which was favored by the media, did not begin, but the game against the Grizzlies was fought to the end.
In the end, the Grizzlies defeated the Trail Blazers with their rich experience.
In this game, Zhou Si struggled to score 27 points under Ariza's defense. For this, he took 26 shots, including 15 strikes!
Zhou Si was completely caught in the web the Grizzlies spun for him!
Today, apart from Zhou Si hitting 5 three-pointers, only Matthews hit 3 three-pointers.
Everyone else made a total of 0 of 21 three-pointers!
If you think about it carefully, you can understand that Conley, Tony Allen, Ariza, Randolph and Gasol, the main force of the Grizzlies, are all defensive experts in every position, and they have cooperated for a long time and have already formed a defensive system.
Just like many people thought that James was blocked by Leonard instead of the Spurs' defensive system, it was not Ariza who defended Zhou in this game, but the Grizzlies as a whole.
It's easy to break through Ariza, but it's really difficult to score in the penalty area!
The Black and White Bears were stuck inside, and Zhou Si's offensive efficiency was not very high.
After the game, when Zhou Si stood up and took responsibility, the media comforted him!
Zhou, don't be too sad. The fifteenth consecutive victory is already the second in team history. If you want to break the record, there will be many opportunities!
Zhou Si’s teammates, starting from Lillard, took the initiative to take the blame. It was me who was too stubborn and had nothing to do with Zhou Si.
They really felt like they played like shit in this game. If only they could hit a few more three-pointers, they would win, but they just couldn't do it.
Seeing this, Zhou Si could only sigh helplessly. Breaking records is really not my hobby. Also, his hand was really average today!
…
After sending away the nasty Grizzlies, the Trail Blazers' last opponent in November came to Portland.
"Hahaha, I also wanted to wait for my Lord Silver Wolf to give you a head-on blow when you equal the historical record, but I didn't expect that you would be defeated in advance!
Oh, damn the Grizzlies!"
Looking at the extremely angry Zeller in front of him, Zhou Si really wanted to hold him down and beat him!
Next time you go out to eat with Zeller, be sure to bring "Martial Arts Master" James Johnson with you!
However, Zeller does have the capital. Their Huskies currently have a record of 12 wins and 4 losses, ranking fourth in the Western Conference!
It can be said that ESPN's face was temporarily slapped by the Huskies and Grizzlies.
In their ranking, the top four in the Midwest should be the Trail Blazers, Spurs, Warriors and Rockets!
But to be honest, the Huskies have really turned around this season.
In addition to the traded players Barnes and David Lee, who provide the Huskies with a lot of firepower, the growth of their team's players is also key.
Among them, Rubio has made the most progress. Although his scoring has dropped from an exaggerated 23.5 points at the beginning of the season to 17.6 points now, it can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds compared to his 9.5 points last season.
What's more important is that his scoring is not due to a significant increase in playing time, but because he has really become more accurate.
His shooting percentage has increased from an impressive 38.1% last season to 49.2% now, and his three-point shooting percentage has increased from 33.1% to 44.4%!
Zhou Si feels that if he continues to play like this, he will probably be the most improved player this season.
In addition, Derrick Williams, the second-place pick in 2011 with dreadlocks, has also begun to realize his talent.
Although the offensive end was still unreliable, he used his crazy defense to keep David Lee on the bench. For this reason, he also earned the nickname Crazy Wolf.
Of course, there is no harm in being pushed on the bench. David Lee, playing as the sixth man, can often contribute double-doubles!
By the way, Zeller, who trained hard at the Devils training camp like Zhou Si and also went to the World Cup to gain experience, did not decline as fast as Rubio. The current average data is still 20.5 points, 11.2 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 2.1 assists per game.
cap!
Zeller can now be regarded as the best player in the 13th class except Zhou Si. He has fulfilled his talent and indeed showed greater strength than his college teammate Oladipo.
But it wasn't until the actual game that Zeller realized that the No. 1 pick was the No. 1 pick after all.
Zhou Si, the honorary group leader, is still stronger than him, the group leader.
After the game, Zeller couldn't help but squeeze Zhou Si's muscles.
?What is this person made of, and how can he be so good at fighting?
95:112!
After the Trail Blazers easily defeated the Huskies, their record improved to 16 wins and 1 loss.
When leaving, Zeller ignored Zhou Si's crazy statistics of 31 points, 15 rebounds, 12 assists, 5 steals and 2 blocks and said bitterly:
“If you hadn’t made 15 of 27 three-pointers, we would have won this game!
Next time, I’ll wait for you in Minnesota!”
Chapter completed!
