The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 237: Wang Xiao, who turns stone into gold

In the next few games, it can be said that Wang Xiao resolutely implemented the rotation arrangement without hesitation. In addition to the rookies who joined this season, veterans such as Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison had arranged rest.

However, in the face of the Wizards, whose main force is resting frequently, it is still difficult for most teams in the league to defeat it. This team is really too strong, and the strength displayed on both offensive and defensive ends makes the entire league seem helpless.

With the tight schedule, the Wizards sang all the way, sitting firmly on the throne of the league's first, and the whole January passed without knowing it.

As of the end of January, the Wizards played a total of 21 games and won 17 of them, with a winning rate of 80%.

The super high winning percentage completely shattered the media's predictions for the performance of the Wizards in the new season.

I originally thought that without Harden and Jordan, the Wizards' record would inevitably be greatly affected, but I didn't expect the result to be like this.

Thompson, Leonard and other rookies performed impeccably in the first month. Although their contribution to the team is more reflected in the defensive aspect, there is no outstanding individual performance, but this does not prevent the media from paying attention to Much praise to both of them.

"Facts have proved that there is nothing wrong with Wang Xiao's vision. The magic is still there. Thompson and Leonard may be far inferior to Harden in terms of personal ability, but their style is obviously more suitable for the Wizards team. Thompson and Leonard The arrival of the Wizards has made the Wizards' defense solid, and I believe that in the next few years, these two will become the hottest star players in the league!"

...

With an explosive performance of 31 points and 7 assists per game, Curry was successfully elected as the Eastern Conference Player of the Month in January. Kobe Bryant assists.

It is worth mentioning that there are quite a few contenders for the best player in the Western Conference in January. Apart from Kobe, Durant, who averaged 29 points and 8 rebounds per game, is also a popular choice. At the same time, another player has also joined the fierce competition. He is the new core player of the Sacramento Kings, James Harden.

After taking over the Kings, Harden's data has exploded in an instant. So far, Harden has played 38 minutes per game, averaging 27 points, 5 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game.

Under his leadership, the Kings, who were second to last in the Western Conference last season, have made great progress and are currently ranked sixth in the Western Conference.

It is entirely conceivable that if the Wizards' record this season is slightly worse, the outside world will spray Wang Xiao into what he looks like, and Harden's superstar performance has once again confirmed it, but it seems that none of the players Wang Xiao likes Too bad, this genius coach really has the magic power to turn stones into gold!

Under such a trend, gradually, many scouts and media are paying attention to Harvard University.

During the lockout period, it was not a secret that Wang Xiao returned to China to hold a training camp, and even the United States was shocked when the selection was expanded to a nationwide scale.

As for the two young Huaxia players that Wang Xiao finally selected and brought back, it would be a lie to say that he was not curious.

For Chinese players, the league is generally not optimistic. After all, apart from Yao, there is no Chinese player who can play in the NBA over the years.

But the player Wang Xiao is optimistic about is obviously a special case. His last Chinese disciple Jeremy Lin has now become the savior of the Nets.

Jeremy Lin, who just entered the league last season, relied on his personal ability to abruptly bring the Nets, which was at the bottom of the league, into the playoffs. This season, Jeremy Lin even played MVP-level data, averaging 20 points, 5 rebounds and 11 rebounds per game. In terms of assists, the Nets are currently ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference thanks to Jeremy Lin, and their record is even better than the Celtics and Knicks with the Big Three combination.

Although Jeremy Lin is a Chinese-American, he has pure Chinese blood flowing through him, and there is no essential difference between him and the Chinese.

Since Wang Xiao can teach one Jeremy Lin, why should he continue to teach two or three?

But when they went to Harvard University to watch the training and competition of Wang Meng and Cheng Jie, they were all disappointed.

It sucks, it sucks.

Wang Meng and Cheng Jie were still ranked within the top 100 among Chinese teenagers, but in the United States, they failed at all.

Basic skills, physical fitness, tactical awareness... The points that these scouts pay attention to and refer to have no reference value at all. At least from their point of view, the two are just the most ordinary basketball fans. level, even if they casually play on American street courts, they may be abused.

Can you play basketball at this level? Can you still join the Harvard University basketball team as a special student?

Wang Xiao has already used the growth template card for Wang Meng and Cheng Jie, but the so-called growth template card only improves the development potential of the target player to the star level, rather than directly obtaining the star's ability. There is a huge gap with American players in terms of basics. Now I have only trained with Harvard University for less than two months. It would be strange if I can really improve by leaps and bounds.

Jeremy Lin’s situation at the time was completely different from these two. After all, he grew up in the United States and received advanced American basketball training and practice. Moreover, when Wang Xiao found him, he had already entered the Harvard school team through his own efforts. Even without Wang Xiao's support and help, Jeremy Lin will secure his position as the team's main player in a year's time.

Kidd's growth template card gave Jeremy Lin greater potential for improvement, coupled with the assistance of Wang Xiao's training module, it allowed him to improve his strength by leaps and bounds in just two years, and he has an NBA-level strength level.

As long as Wang Meng and Cheng Jie are willing to work hard in training, they will definitely grow up in the future, but definitely not now.

According to Wang Xiao's calculations, these two people should be able to grow into the main players of the NCAA in the next year, become top players in the NCAA within two years, and have the ability to play in the NBA within three years. The next Reggie Miller and Ron Artest may take at least five years.

At present, Wang Meng is 17 years old, and Cheng Jie is 16 years old. Five years later, they will both be 22 and 21 years old respectively. This is completely in line with Wang Xiao's expectations, and if there is a training bonus effect of the training module, they may be faster grow up.

...

The media reporters and scouts who were disappointed did not find out what the two Huaxia players selected by Wang Xiao had, and they didn't have the patience to continue their in-depth investigations, and gradually forgot about this matter.
