NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

Vol 2 Chapter 620: All-Star Countdown (Part 2)

On February 6, 2015, the NBA regular season resumed.

After the battle in January, the Trail Blazers continued their winning streak in February, further consolidating their first place in the league!

At this point, only the Warriors' 38 wins and 8 losses can bring them a little pressure.

In addition, the Mosaic team, like the third-ranked monk in the West, is now only 33 wins and 15 losses; the fourth-ranked Clippers, behind the essence of the current record Mosaic, came to 33 wins and 14 losses.

As for the latter, there is no need to say more.

On the 6th, there were not many but 4 games arranged by the league.

They are the Wizards at home against the Hornets, the Clippers at home against the Cavaliers, the Mavericks at home against the Kings, and the Suns at home against the Thunder.

Staying at home, Wang Zelin is always watching the matchup between the Clippers and the Cavaliers, because both sides are powerful teams in the league.

When I came to the Staples Center, although the opponent was not the No. 24 I was most looking forward to, maybe it was because he came to a familiar arena, James was very hot as soon as he came up, staged dunks one after another and ravaged the basket.

In the 28 minutes of play, he made 8 of 14 shots, 1 of 2 from three-pointers, and 6 of 7 free throws. He scored 23 points, 3 rebounds, 13 assists and 1 steal quite efficiently.

However, the best player of the game was awarded to his teammate DeMarcus Cousins.

Tonight, Cousins ​​played 31 minutes, made 7 of 14 shots, 1 of 4 from three-pointers, and 10 of 12 from the free throw line. He scored a game-high 25 points and 19 rebounds, plus 3 assists and 1 block.

Facing the blue-collar center James Jordan, who is known for his defense in the league, Cousins ​​played like a **** tonight. He not only ate his opponent in the top 10 in the frontal singles, but also caused Jordan's last time in the 4th minute of the final quarter. Foul, direct foul out.

Thanks to his dominant performance in the paint, the Cavaliers were able to narrowly beat the Clippers with only 10 points in Irving's poor performance.

On the Clippers.

The Big Three collectively pulled their hips today.

Under the main defense of James, Paul made 4 of 14 shots, including 1 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 10 points, nine assists; Griffin made 7 of 17 shots, scored 16 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists; Jordan 4 Made 3 of the shots and scored 8 points and 11 rebounds.

It seems that Jordan's offensive efficiency on the court is the highest among the three, but don't forget, Jordan is essentially a blue-collar player, and his greatest responsibility on the court is defense, not offense.

When he was continuously cleaned up by Cousins ​​one-on-one, his role on the court may not be as good as Jamal Crawford.

Although Ke Laoliu was a bit tough tonight, 6 of 14 shots and only 1 of 6 three-pointers, his score was in double figures after all, and he scored 13 points. Second-highest scoring player after Griffin.

Once Jordan can't defend, it's really useless. After all, no one expects him to rely on offense to help the team.

In the end, the Cavaliers defeated the Clippers with a double-digit advantage at 105:94 on the road, winning a three-game winning streak after losing to the Blazers.

The one who is the happiest is undoubtedly James who paddled the whole game today.

That's right, even if he got data like 23+13, for James, who is still at his peak, it's just a sprinkle of water.

He was happy that, first of all, the team won the game. In fact, he saw a shadow of Wang Zelin on Cousins.

Especially when Cousins ​​successfully hit the basket, his eyes glowed. If it was in the animation, he would be reluctant to add two red hearts.

Speaking of which, Cousins ​​should be the first offensive heavy tank center James has worked with in his career.

The former Big Z and Shaquille O'Neal, one had a soft playing style and the other was too old. Not to mention during the Heat era, James himself had to increase his weight and go to the No. 4 position to defend the inside line.

For the first time, James has felt the benefits of having a strong center in his penalty area!

Of course, he still does not forget that one day, he will seek the opportunity to cooperate with the Blazers No. 36.

……

Back to the Blazers.

After watching yesterday's game.

On February 7th, the Trail Blazers ushered in their third game at home since February, and they have a lot of grudges against the Houston Mosaic!

Just this past January, James Harden was definitely one of the best players in the league in a single month, but it was a pity that he lost to Wang Zelin in the end.

Recalling the consecutive losses to the Blazers in the past few seasons, old grudges and new grievances, Harden vowed before the game that he must win the Blazers tonight.

It's just that he seems to have forgotten a law, that is - the Blazers' No. 36 team exploded every Mosaic!

……

119:106!

When the final whistle sounded, Harden fell into deep helplessness watching the score of the two teams displayed on the big screen.

Harden's performance tonight was very dazzling. He played 40 minutes and made 11 of 25 shots, including 4 of 10 three-pointers and 9 of 13 free throws. He was very efficient, scoring 35 points, 9 rebounds and 8 times. A quasi-triple-double with 2 assists and 2 steals.

It can be said that in order to win the Blazers once, Harden once again gave everything.

However, due to Howard's absence due to injury, the Mosaic team really did not have enough high support on the inside. Facing the Blazers team with the luxurious inside line combination of Wang Zelin and Aldridge, they were completely reduced to the opponent's back garden.

Trail Blazers twin towers, Aldridge played 36 minutes, made 8 of 17 shots, scored 24 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, and sent a season-high 2 blocks.

Wang Zelin played 37 minutes, made 15 of 22 shots and 7 of 7 free throws, scoring a game-high 37 points, 18 rebounds and 5 blocks.

The outside trio, Lillard 15 points, Batum 13 points, Matthews 12 points, the starting lineup all scored in double figures.

Before leaving, with a helpless Harden in his head, he glanced back at the Rose Garden Arena, and resolutely turned around and left this sad place.

However, at this moment, his dissatisfaction with Howard in his heart also reached its peak.

He just couldn't figure it out. He was obviously not a few years older than himself. It stands to reason that Howard, who was in his prime ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, could decline so quickly.

Since joining the Mosaic team, the former top center in the league has not been as good as a year, and the speed of decline in strength has shocked the jaws of countless people.

And as Harden gets stronger year by year, he naturally yearns for a higher league status and competes for the supreme championship honor!

Howard, he's had enough!

……

……

After defeating the Mosaic team led by Harden and winning 9 consecutive victories, the Blazers went to Dallas on February 8, and started a back-to-back match with the Mavericks...

As a result, tonight, the German chariot Nuo Tianwang explained what Jiang is still old and spicy. After playing 35 minutes, he made 13 of 25 shots, including 4 of 8 three-pointers, and scored a game-high 30 points. , led the Mavericks to complete the comeback in the distal quarter.

On the Blazers side, affected by back-to-back influence, all players performed well, and Wang Zelin, the best performer, only scored 24 points.

At 106:111, they lost to the Mavericks in the away game, reluctantly ending the winning streak.

After several days of rest, on February 11, the Trail Blazers went to Los Angeles again for an away game.

This time, the Blazers, who were fully rested and recharged their energy, played the best in the league in the game against the Lakers.

112:86, 26 points over the Lakers!

After this battle, the league officially ushered in the annual All-Star Weekend!
