Build a Dream Dynasty

108:115, the Nets lost to the Atlanta Hawks in an away game, which was an upset. This game can be described as a counterattack for the old players of the Nets. Dinwiddie, who has been performing steadily since coming to the Eagles, is in this game The game went to a higher level, contributing 25 points and 8 assists. Although the star flavor is not strong and the style of play is not strong, but just looking at the data and efficiency, Dinwiddie can even touch the side of the All-Star players. Nurkic also played a large double-double of 17+12 inside, and faced Porzingis, he did not lose the wind at all.

In the summer, they first let go of Horford and then sent away Teague. The Eagles seemed to be rebuilding around LaVine. Not only did LaVine show his leadership qualities after becoming the boss of the team, and he has improved significantly. Players such as Dinwiddie, Carroll, and Nurkic also really showed good performances. proved its worth.

Some fans may be upset that the team traded away Dinwiddie and Nurkic for the draft. As a result, the draft does not seem to be able to be exchanged for any good goods, but in fact, this draft is already in George’s transaction. It was given to the Warriors, so the Eagles played well, and it was the Warriors not the Nets who were uncomfortable. The salary system of the Nets is difficult to keep Dinwiddie and Nurkic, even if Jiang Mingliang does not take the luxury tax back. However, it is also difficult for players to agree to serve as a substitute player on the team for a long time.

A loss has temporarily fixed the Nets in the third position in the Eastern Conference. However, after successive years of victories, occasional small troubles are not a big deal for the Nets. Not good either, didn't they also make it to the finals lightly in the end? What's more, the current orange of the Nets is indeed tougher than that of their opponents.

On the contender side at this time, the Clippers have extended their lead over the Nets to five games, and the team has begun to consciously rest their lineup. On West's side, he doesn't care about other opponents in the East. He only has the Nets in his eyes. It is enough for the team to ensure that they have home court advantage in the finals with the Nets. As for the Cavaliers, the Bucks broke into the finals? That's even better! Without home court advantage, the Clippers are not afraid of them!

Jerry West is so confident that now, the Clippers dare to rotate Durant and Embiid in an orderly manner to ensure the health of these two core players.

On January 4, the Nets returned home and ushered in the New York Derby.

The Nets won the New York Derby, and the Knicks won the fans in New York. This seems to be an established fact. Looking at it now, the Nets have shrunk and followed in a year in terms of ticket prices, attendance, and fan support. The gap between the Knicks, and the strength gap between the two teams, still seems to be very large, and the Knicks have no hope of catching up in the short term.

When the New York generation experienced the dynasty of the Nets and the sinking of the Knicks, in the days to come, it may only be a matter of time before the Nets overtake the Knicks.

In the Barclays Center, the fans who support the Knicks are no less than the fans who support the Nets. This kind of embarrassment should also happen to the Clippers. In the same city derby, even if the Clippers are at home, there are more fans of the Lakers. Over the years, though, Nets fans have gotten used to this happening and have nothing to fear.

The Knicks obviously wanted to do something against the Nets in a bloody state. After all, the team hadn't won the New York Derby for three and a half seasons, and they had lost 14 straight against the Nets. Think about it All feel tragic. However, the current Knicks team is still in a period of weakness. The management of the team is in disarray. It has been cleaning up junk contracts to free up salary space for a long time, and opening new junk contracts will cause even greater disasters. In the vicious cycle, it was tossing back and forth, just like this season, the team sent Mayo away in exchange for Jordan's one-year contract. With Rose's one-year expiring contract, he can free up a certain amount of salary space in the summer of 2017. Let's make some moves, but when the time comes, you'll find them filling the space with a few more crap contracts.

toss! Toss again and again, this is the Knicks!

In this game, the Nets, which aimed to avoid a losing streak, took advantage of Leonard at the beginning to blast the Knicks point-to-point. The current status of the two teams is a bit like when Jiang Mingliang just took over the Nets. case, but the opposite. At that time, the Knicks took advantage of Anthony to ravage the Nets' forward line in various ways, and the Nets who were tossed by the little melon were uncomfortable. And now, Leonard is also a problem that the Knicks can't solve. Driven by the New York media, Leonard came to the sixth place in the MVP list. This season, he averaged 24.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.4 blocks per game. The performance of God of War in the top three in the Eastern Conference has made his starlight continue to improve. If he is lucky, Leonard will definitely have the hope of launching an impact this season.

You know, his competitors are James and Durant. If he can really win such an honor, it is really a great affirmation!

To be honest, the strength of the Knicks lineup this season is really good on paper, but Anthony's injury is really fatal. The cavalry company commander Brewer on top is not only good at running fast breaks, but also has a warm and innocent smile In addition, other aspects are lackluster. At least in terms of the 3D attributes that the team wants him to have, he is 3 unstable, and D is also average. It is quite difficult to play against heavy small forward Leonard.

Leonard's killing all directions in the New York Derby has become an unsolvable point for the Knicks. On the Knicks' side, McCollum, who has just reached a huge four-year 106 million contract extension with the team, is responsible The Knicks took the important task of scoring. The Knicks have traded JR Smith and the pick in exchange for the No. 2 scorer from the Nets in recent years. Although his physical fitness is not outstanding, McCollum's scoring skills It's really comprehensive, especially the mid-range shots and throwing shots. They are quite sure. Maybe this is also a pity for the Nets. McCollum really doesn't match Curry.

In the whole game, McCollum made 14 of 29 shots and scored 36 points, proving that he was worthy of the big contract offered by the Knicks. However, Leonard's strength is indeed stronger. In this game, McCollum also forced him to start the unparalleled God of War mode. With both offensive and defensive ends, he scored a double-double of 39 points and 11 rebounds. The team defeated the Knicks 113:102 (25-11), continuing the team's winning streak in the New York Derby.

For Knicks fans, the nightmare is still going on, and no one knows when it will end!
