Chapter 629: Difficult schedule

Since discovering extreme training, Yang Shuai has been happily training in space, even though he is exhausted after every training session.

After the All-Star Game, it didn't have much impact on the Warriors, but it once again had a big change on the entire league.

Before the All-Star Game, because the trade deadline was approaching, there was already an undercurrent in the league. After the All-Star Weekend, the big trade that was brewing finally broke out.

The first big trade came from the Nuggets, Knicks, and Timberwolves. After rumors continued for most of the season, Anthony finally left the Nuggets through a big trade involving twelve people.

The Knicks sent Raymond Felton, Wilson Chandler, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, Eddie Curry, 2016 first-round pick, 2012

In 2013, he received a second-round draft pick and $6 million in cash to acquire Carmelo Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Sheldon Williams, Anthony Carter, and Renaldo Balkman.

Corey Brewer;

The Nuggets sent Carmelo Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Sheldon Williams, Anthony Carter, Renaldo Balkman, and received Raymond Felton and Wells.

-Chandler, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, Kosta Koufos, the Knicks' 2016 draft pick, 2012 and 2013 second-round draft picks and $3 million in cash;

The Timberwolves sent Corey Brewer and Costa Koufos to get Eddie Curry and $3 million in cash.

The trade immediately aroused heated discussion. Knicks fans are very happy that they finally have the top superstar they have been waiting for for a long time. The combination of Billups, Anthony and Stoudemire has made them look forward to it.

Of course, many people do not agree with the Knicks' approach. They think it is unwise for the Knicks to send out all their potential players just to welcome Anthony. This includes Knicks general manager Donnie Walsh.

.

"This is all done by Dolan and Isiah. This is all the calculation of Wes and Ryan Ross." Donnie Walsh said in the interview.

The Dolan he is talking about is Knicks owner James Dolan, and Isiah is the former Knicks consultant "Smiling Assassin" Isiah Thomas. It is reported that in this Melon trade case, Dolan accepted Thomas' offer

It was suggested that he bypass the Knicks management headed by Walsh and negotiate directly with Anthony and his agent team (Vice and Ryan Rose of CAA), which finally led to the conclusion of the deal.

However, his voice was soon drowned out. Although he was dissatisfied with the facts that had already happened, he was unable to change them.

Anthony's trade to the Knicks did not go beyond people's expectations. This trade rumor has been circulating in the league for too long, but the subsequent trade of Deron Williams to the Nets surprised many people.

Anticipate.

The day before the trade deadline, the Jazz sent Deron Williams to the Nets for Devin Harris, Derrick Favors, the Nets' 2011 draft pick, the 2012 draft pick and $3 million in cash.

When Jerry Sloan left the Jazz, many people were saying that it was Deron Williams who forced the meritorious coach away. But when Deron Williams was also traded away, people realized that things were obvious.

It's not that simple.

The intricate relationship between Williams, Sloan and the Jazz does not have much impact on other teams, but being able to get this All-Star point guard is another opportunity for the Nets, who have just changed owners.

More room for manipulation.

The trade deadline is approaching, and news of trades is frequently coming out of the league. Teams such as the Rockets, Celtics, Hawks and Bobcats have made trading moves.

There were three relatively big transactions in the middle. The Bobcats sent Gerald Wallace to the Trail Blazers for Joel Przybilla, Dante Cunningham, Sean Marcos, and a receiver.

A protected 2011 first-round pick and a protected 2013 first-round pick.

The Clippers sent Baron Davis and a 2011 first-round draft pick to the Cavaliers in exchange for Maurice Williams and Jamario Moon.

The Celtics sent Kendrick Perkins and Nate Robinson to the Thunder for Jeff Green and Nenad Kostic.

The Warriors did not take action in the end, which made Warriors fans both gratified and disappointed. The Warriors' current situation is somewhat different from what was expected at the beginning of the season. Fans also hope to strengthen the team as much as possible while keeping the current lineup relatively intact.

, but such good things are not easy to find.

After the trade scene ended on ri, February is coming to an end. The Warriors this month are relatively stable. The Warriors have won nine of the thirteen games, with a winning rate of nearly 70%. However, after this month, they have 45 wins and 16 losses.

It dropped from second place in the Western Conference to third place.

The Spurs are still ranked first in the Western Conference with 49 wins and 10. Although the Spurs' performance this season has exceeded people's expectations, one thing is the same as their previous years, stability!

The Lakers' record is 46 wins and 15 losses. They also played 13 games this month, but they achieved a record of 10 wins and 3 losses. With this more victory than the Warriors, they jumped to second place in the Western Conference.

The fourth place in the Western Conference is still the Mavericks, who have achieved a record of 43 wins and 16 losses. The four teams in front belong to the first team in the Western Conference. After the end of February, they have begun to widen the gap with the teams behind them.

The Thunder and Nuggets both have 35 wins and 23 losses. Due to division record, the Nuggets are ranked fifth and the Thunder are ranked sixth. The seventh position in the Western Conference belongs to the Hornets with 35 wins and 26, and the eighth position belongs to 33

The Blazers won 26 games.

Following closely behind, the Grizzlies with 33 wins and 28 losses and the Jazz with 32 wins and 28 losses both have a great possibility of making the playoffs.

The rankings in the Eastern Conference have not changed much. The Celtics ranked first with 42 wins and 15 losses, the Heat regained the second position with 43 wins and 17 losses, the Bulls ranked third with 40 wins and 17 losses, and the Magic ranked third with 38 wins and 22 losses.

The loss ranked fourth, and the Eagles ranked fifth with 36 wins and 23 losses.

March is about to begin, and this month’s schedule will be extremely difficult for the Warriors. Although they mostly play at home this month and only have twelve games, their opponents are very strong. The Celtics, the top three in the Eastern Conference, are

People, Heat, Bulls, Lakers, Mavericks, Nuggets, Hornets among the top eight in the Western Conference.

Entering the first game after March, the Warriors faced a weak team, the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Warriors would not let go of such a weak team. Yang Shuai scored 46 points, 11 assists and 14 rebounds.

Finally, the Warriors easily defeated their opponents with a 15-point advantage. At this time, the Warriors could not relax anymore, because the next two teams they had to face were the Celtics and the Heat.

Playing the Celtics and Heat back-to-back is not easy for any team in the league, and the same is true for the Warriors.

This is not the first time that the Warriors of these two teams have met against each other this season. In the first month of the new season, the Warriors met the Heat in an away game without Chandler and Jackson. In the end, relying on the team's overall outside performance

With their outstanding performance, they won this game. And in the Christmas game, relying on Yang Shuai's buzzer-beater, they won the Celtics' home court.

Both the Celtics and the Heat are teams that really want to win the Warriors. The Celtics do so because of last season's finals, while the Heat do so because of Yang Shuai's presence.

At their home court, facing the fierce Celtic Warriors, they ultimately failed to withstand it. Although Yang Shuai finally scored 45 points, the Celtics did a very good job of defending Yang Shuai's assists.

, he only got 6 assists in the end.

The biggest contributor to the Celtics winning the game was undoubtedly Ray Allen. Ray Allen made 9 three-pointers in the game and ended up with 36 points. Pierce and Garnett also scored.

20, Rondo even got 17 assists.

108:102, with a difference of 6 points, the Warriors lost to the Celtics at home, and the Celtics' victory on the road was a big relief to their fans. If they were swept by the Warriors in the regular season this season, Kyle

This person's face is really unflattering.

The showdown between the Warriors and the Celtics attracted a lot of attention, and the collision between the Warriors and the Heat did the same, or even more.

Compared to the Celtics, the Heat seemed to want to win the Warriors more. At the beginning of the game, the Heat showed their strength on both offense and defense and went on to score a 12:2 victory.

The Warriors also found that the Heat have changed a lot compared to the beginning of the season. Their defense has become stronger and their offense has become more coordinated.

Yang Shuai took the initiative to overtake the team's offensive banner and scored 15 points in the rest of the first quarter. However, even so, the Warriors still trailed the Heat by 7 points after the first quarter.

After the start of the second quarter, the Warriors once again showed their strength from the outside, with successive attacks and Gao Chao tied the score before halftime. After the third quarter, the two teams began a tug-of-war, and in the end the Warriors led their opponents by 1 point.

68:69, the score of the two teams was not high. The 1-point lead at the end of the third quarter became the Warriors' last lead of the game. Just entering the fourth quarter, the Heat played a 6:0 wave of Xiaogao Chaojiang.

The point difference widened to 5 points. Then the Warriors continued to launch counterattacks but were never able to complete the lead, even if Yang Shuai scored 9 points in a row after coming on the court.
