Build a Dream Dynasty

On March 18, George and Porzingis took turns to rest. The Nets beat the Denver Nuggets 119 to 81 at home, and entered garbage time in less than three quarters.

Leonard played 35 minutes, made 14 of 20 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 38 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, directly defeating the Nuggets.

With Curry on the court, the Nuggets' defensive focus is on his side. Naturally, they dare not flank Leonard. As a teammate, Curry's character is nothing to say. It was willing to let Leonard take more shots. Curry took only 11 shots in the game, hit 6 goals and scored 16 points.

It was also in this game that the fans at the Barclays Center chanted "MVP!" for Leonard for the first time, creating momentum for Leonard to compete for higher honors.

In a sense, the large-scale rotation of the Nets also objectively helped Leonard obtain better data in the game, the ball is more concentrated, and Leonard has more penalty kicks as the main attacker.

Not everyone can notice the high-level data, but the gap in the basic data is visible to the naked eye. Shortening the gap between Leonard and James' basic data will also help him compete for a while.

On March 20th, the Nets played against the Sacramento Kings at home. Joe Johnson took a break. Wood and Teodosic were absent due to injuries. Facing the Kings who had defeated them in the first round of the confrontation, the Nets did not show mercy. .

The Kings sent Cousins ​​away in the All-Star Game in exchange for Hilde, Evans and others and two draft picks. Shooting, the performance is not bad, but lacking an inside offensive fulcrum, the team's offense is difficult to stabilize, and the Kings' record has also become turbulent.

In the playoffs last season, Antetokounmpo with the same style of play once posed a huge threat to the Nets. In the end, Leonard played in person. He fought against Antetokounmpo in both offense and defense, and succeeded in making Antetokounmpo bad at shooting. General weakness in lower body strength is exposed. Against Simmons, Leonard also has a greater defensive advantage. Antetokounmpo at least has a physical advantage over Leonard. Leonard, it seems that all attributes are suppressed, except for passing, other abilities cannot be used.

In the whole game, Leonard scored 24 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists, and Simmons, who had 9 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, may not be particularly beautiful, but the more important thing is that Leonard, apart from James and Duran, All wing players except special can be suppressed.

George also scored 21 points and performed well, becoming the team's second scorer.

The playoffs are getting closer and closer, and the stars of the Nets have adjusted their status through continuous rotation, which is also of great help to their playoff journey.

On March 21, the back-to-back Nets defeated the Toronto Raptors coached by Casey 104 to 97. (57-15)

Leonard played 38 minutes, scored 38 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists, and his statistics soared. At the same time, he continued to play brilliantly on the defensive end. He made 7 shots and only scored 15 points, which was extremely inefficient.

The Raptors' inside combination of Howard and Ibaka performed well. Porzingis was hard to beat with four hands and was suppressed miserably. This is also the reason why the Nets won more difficultly. The Nets won on the wing position Leonard's huge advantage.

On March 24, the Nets beat the Philadelphia 76ers 107-102 away. (58-15)

Leonard continued to perform all-round, scoring 21 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals in the game, and the system Ariza completely exploded the genuine Ariza!

In this game, Harden played an MVP-level performance, scoring a double-double of 34 points and 10 assists. It was not until the end that the two sides decided the winner. Curry ran to catch the ball and made a key three-pointer. Killed the suspense of the game.

The back-to-back Nets played against the Wizards at home and won easily. (59-15)

It was the Milwaukee Bucks (59-16) that ended the Nets' winning streak. Middleton made 15 of 22 shots and 9 shots from beyond the three-point line. In the 7th round, he scored 44 points in the whole game, telling Brooklyn children not to cry at night.

With the victory of this game, the Bucks scored 2:2 with the Nets in the regular season, and double-killed the Nets when Iguodala joined the team. The team most favored to snipe the Nets.

Just winning two games against the Nets, he was directly awarded the "Nemesis of the Nets". It can be seen that the Nets have been suffering for a long time in today's league, and everyone can't wait for an opponent to come out and sanction them!

The loss to the Bucks did not affect the Nets' continued occupation of the No. 1 position in the Eastern Conference. After Curry came back, the team's slashing performance and the triple kill against the Cavaliers have already disarmed the Cavaliers. Due to the absolute disadvantage in the relationship between victory and defeat, the Cavaliers, whose record is still one game behind, can only win two more games with 7 games left in the season to overtake the Nets and return to the No. 1 position in the Eastern Conference. In other words, if they win all, the Nets must lose at least two games; if they only lose one game, the Nets must lose three games. . . . . . . It's impossible to think about it.

Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue chose to rotate James in the game against the 76ers. The team lost to the 76ers 111:116, and the gap with the Nets widened to 2 games, basically giving up the regular season. In the competition, the Nets have basically locked the position of the Eastern Conference champions. Considering that the 76ers' fourth position in the Eastern Conference is also relatively stable, the Nets' opponents in the first round have not yet been determined, but there is a considerable probability of playing the 76ers in the second round. The two teams, the Bucks and Cavaliers, which are regarded as competitors of the Nets, are very likely to fight early in the second round of the Eastern Conference, and strive for a chance to fight the Nets in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Jiang Mingliang was a little surprised that the situation had developed like this. how to say. After making the decision to rotate the lineup, the Nets have actually given up the idea of ​​competing for the Eastern Conference championship in a sense, but the team still maintained a winning streak during the rotation period, which made Jiang Mingliang feel that he was too strong to break the balance!

As Jack Ma said, even though the shares have been diluted to 8%, there are still so many! That's what Jiang Mingliang thinks now.
