NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

, !

On the 25th, Jenna came to the door again.

Back to this year's Christmas theme.

On Christmas Eve in 2014, the league arranged 5 groups of Christmas battles.

The chronological order is:

Thunder vs Knicks;

Heat vs Cavaliers;

Lakers vs Bulls

Spurs vs Trail Blazers;

Warriors vs Clippers!

Among the five sets of duels, the most popular ones are when James led his team to Miami and his old club, and Wang Zelin led the Blazers to the Holy City again to challenge the traditional powerhouse Spurs away.

The second gear is the Lakers vs. the Bulls. Don't ask why, just one Kobe Bryant is enough to smash all doubts;

And the Warriors vs. Clippers. The Warriors currently have a record of 24 wins and 4 losses, ranking second in the West; the Clippers have a record of 22 wins and 6 losses. Both teams are ranked in the top four in the West, and the Wilderness League is an absolute strong team. .

The least popular should be the Thunder vs. Knicks matchup. The league's original plan was a direct confrontation between the two scoring champions Durant and Anthony, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and both were injured...

This made the senior leaders completely lost.

If I had known this, it would be better to replace it with Thunder and Mosaic. In this way, the title can still read "The battle between the three Thunders in the past", and it can still be a little hot.

Too bad it can't be replaced!

At 14:00 in the afternoon, the Blazers came to San Antonio and entered a state of active preparation.

Their old rival, the Spurs, is currently 20-9 and remains sixth in the Western Conference.

However, they are only one game away from the Grizzlies in front. This direct confrontation will affect their subsequent rankings.

This is especially true for the Spurs. They are not the same as the Blazers. Even if they lose this game, the Warriors who are second in the West will not be able to catch up with them for the time being. If they lose, not only will they have no hope of catching up with the Grizzlies, but the Lakers with 19 wins and 10 losses will be eyeing them!

In the same division, if they lose another game, if they have the same record as the Blazers after the season, then their rankings will also be lower.

This is not impossible.

Don't look at the fans who are always making fun of Duncan's getting old again this year and the Spurs. It's just like this today, and no one will take it seriously.

As long as the core gdp trio of the Spurs are still there, they will always be the favorites to win the championship, unless they can't make the playoffs. Once they make it to the playoffs, whoever encounters them will feel a headache.

Therefore, this game, whether it is the Blazers or the Spurs, must be won.

On the day of the game, the Spurs held an open training session.

Although the pressure is not small, there are smiles on the faces of the Spurs players, which is also the team culture of this team.

Cold on the field, grinning off the field.

Don't look, it's you, the flying devil of Victor Forest!

Laughing and laughing off the court can be sentenced to expulsion and suspension, which is the only case in history.

After the training, Simavic was interviewed by the media after the training.

The focus of the question is mainly focused on two.

The first is the Christmas game against the same opponent, can the Spurs win this year?

The second is about Wang Zelin, who performed hot in these two games.

"Yes, we will win this game, it is important to us. After losing last year, my players and I are constantly thinking about how to wash away the shame this year."

Faced with our first question, this old and unruly guy behaved very seriously at first.

Sure enough, this kind of answer came out of Sima Weiqi's mouth, and everyone suddenly felt strange. However, when he answered the second question, the reporters knew that the trip was not in vain.

This little old man is still so unreasonable, but it's just a little later than expected.

"Yeah, like you said, Wang is the best insider in this league right now, even the best player, you can't stop him in one-on-one defense, especially now that he's developed that **** skyhook …”

duang! duang! duang!

Halfway through speaking, he took a sip of red wine before continuing: "But this is my site. No one has ever scored 50 points on my site, never before, and never will!"

"What if he can score 50+ again tonight?"

A reporter asked, this is also a hot topic that fans are talking about on major social media.

Sima Weiqi put away the smile on his face, wiped the corner of his mouth again, and shook his head seriously:

"If Tim and the others let Wang get this score tonight, then I'll kick their butts one by one, and then I'll never touch red wine again until I win the championship this year!"

He didn't answer directly, but the meaning of the words was very clear. The Spurs would not allow someone to score 50 points on their heads, even if the man was Wang Zelin!

Before the game, Wang Zelin surfed the Internet after training and saw the content of Sima Weiqi's interview, which made him laugh.

However, the other party underestimated his determination.

Since he knew that his current scoring average exceeded 30+, and he was very likely to win the scoring title this season, his mood changed.

Before his teammates were not injured, he still thought that the regular season could be mixed or mixed, anyway, the Blazers have long guaranteed the playoffs.

But now it's different. Since the team needs him to score high to win, and he can touch the scoring crown while scoring high, he has no reason not to fight.

You know, that's the scoring champ!

Among the honors in the regular season, the league's top honor is second only to MVP.

Among the previous scoring champions, one is counted as one, and the energy in the league at its peak is definitely at the level of calling for wind and rain.

In the history of the NBA, the great **** who can complete mvp + scoring + fmvp in a single season has only appeared five times in the history of the NBA, and four of them were done by the same person...

Mike I'm Everywhere Jordan: "That's right, it's down!"

Shark O'Neal: "Hey young, I can't think of it, I did it once!"

As long as Wang Zelin can do it, whether it is his influence among the fans today or his historical status in the future, it will be very beneficial for him to compete with various great gods.

As we all know, the NBA has a default metaphysics, that is, it is difficult to win the championship in a single award. Especially for the scoring champions, the scoring champions of the past ten years have been wiped out!

It should even be said that more than 90% of the scoring champions in NBA history fell in the season when they won the scoring champion and failed to reach the top.

Only four people broke this vicious circle!

From ancient times to the present, the four of them are George McCann once, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar once, O'Neal once, and a hot man who has done it six times by himself...

McCann, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and O'Neal expressed their dismay!

Co-authoring the three of them together is not as good as a hot man!

Therefore, considering the high gold content represented by the scorer who won the championship, Wang Zelin was more motivated.

Just because others can't do it doesn't mean he can't do it either.

What's more, four immortals have done it before, doesn't he think he will be worse than others?

He even wanted to...

That night, the game between the Spurs and the Blazers officially kicked off at the at&t Center Arena!

Players from both sides were absent in this game.

On the Spurs side, according to the NBA injury report on December 20, Tony Parker suffered a hamstring injury and appeared on the 12-man roster tonight, which means that he may return tonight, but no one knows what his state is.

In addition, Patty Mills is recovering from shoulder surgery and is not expected to return until mid-January next year; and Kawhi Leonard, who sprained his right thumb and missed the Christmas fight.

On the Blazers side, Aldridge and Batum are still absent, and veteran Garnett has hip discomfort.

Judging from the impact of missing players, the Blazers lacked Aldridge, one of their cores, which directly affected their offensive firepower.

However, the Spurs also lacked a perimeter core Leonard, especially Leonard is still the absolute defensive gate of the Spurs perimeter. Without him, Danny Green, Tony Parker, Belinelli and Manu Ginobili are alone. These few, the quality of the Spurs' perimeter defense is worrying.

So on paper, the two teams are almost even.

At the opening ceremony, when Wang Zelin, the leader of the visiting team, made his final appearance, the boos at the scene were surprisingly high.

There are many factors here.

There was a 30+20 fight against the Spurs in last year's Christmas battle; there was a shaved head of the Spurs on the stage of the Western Conference Finals; there was a genuine fear of Wang Zelin's recent hot state...

All kinds of factors were mixed together, making the shouting on the scene unprecedented, and the beginning reached its peak.

Simavic couldn't help but looked up and looked around. He understood that the louder the home team's fans booed, it just showed that they attached great importance to the Blazers and Wang Zelin.

Influenced by the Spurs team culture, in fact, Spurs fans are usually quite bored. Such a frenetic start is not common in his impression.

The last player to make such a splash was Kobe Bryant!

Kobe has a title that irritates countless Spurs - "Spurs Killer!"

Hum~www.wuxiaspot.com~ One Kobe is enough, you don't want to be the next one.

Simavic thought so.

After the opening ceremony, the starters of the two teams appeared one after another.

Spurs starters: Tony Parker, Danny Green, Marco Belinelli, Diego Split, Tim Duncan.

Trail Blazers starting: Lillard, Richard Jefferson, Batum, Jokic, Wang Zelin.

Richard Jefferson, a former Spurs player, was assigned a starting spot tonight. Coach Terry's arrangement can be seen as respect for the new teammates, and it can also be used to observe how much the former dunk king has left.

beep-!

The whistle blew and both sides jumped the ball.

Wow, is .asxs. so strict lately? Rarely got a little bit of interest, drove a car, and as a result, 200 words were swallowed in the last chapter...

In the future, be careful and drive less.
