The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

The Trail Blazers made it to the playoffs, thanks to the performance of the team's core Roy. This season, Roy averaged 19 points and 6 assists in 37 minutes per game.

But to be reasonable, in the West where there are so many strong players, it is impossible to bring the team to this level with an average of 19 points per game.

The reason why they can reach the playoffs is also due to the other two scoring points in the team.

LaMarcus Aldridge averaged 17.4 points and 7.3 rebounds per game, and Kevin Durant averaged 18.8 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game!

These three players averaged 55.2 points per game for the team! And two of them are second-year players and one is a first-year player.

All three are young, energetic, and full of potential. People have to imagine what the three will look like when they grow up.

And among these three, the most efficient one is the first-year rookie Kevin Durant!

The 48.7% shooting rate is even more accurate than Aldridge as an inside player!

The high scoring efficiency and the team's excellent record make it no doubt that the 2008 rookie of the year will be selected.

At this time, it is recognized that Oden, who is about to rule the league, is still recovering from his injury, watching other players sweat on the court.

At this time, although there are still many people who argue that choosing Oden is more beneficial from the team's long-term perspective, more and more Trail Blazers fans are starting to call it really good.

Time has proved that Wang Xiao's choice is not necessarily wrong, and Durant's potential is far higher than those scouts have seen.

(About Durant's performance described in this book, I think many people may not agree with it, but from my point of view, he definitely has the ability and possibility to do this in the first season. First of all, Roy himself He is a player with the nature of a combo guard. Many times he will attract firepower and send assists for his teammates on the field. Secondly, Aldridge is also an inside player who prefers the outside style. He can effectively open up space. In the Trail Blazers Durant His shot rights may be less than that of the Supersonics, but the offensive efficiency is definitely much better than when he played alone in the Supersonics. Imagine the Thunder a few years later. Durant, who won the scoring champion for three consecutive years Surrounded by Westbrook and Harden, Durant really doesn't have much time to attack with the ball.)

In response to this situation, major media newspapers have made many targeted column discussions, and some people have called Wang Xiao for interviews.

Regarding this situation, Wang Xiao often ended the interview with a faint sentence of "time will eventually prove who is right".

It's not that he didn't use the media to complain about the idea, but on the one hand, Oden is only injured for one season now, which in the eyes of many people does not mean that his entire career will be ruined.

The second aspect is that he has no time to chat with the media.

After the top 8, Harvard has entered the elite top 4, and then they will have the NCAA semifinals!

Their opponent in the semifinals is North Carolina.

There is no doubt that this team has a luxurious team.

The team not only has Lawson and Hansbrough dual-core inside and outside, but also Danny Green, Wayne Ellington and many other outstanding pitchers.

These are four future NBA-level players, and even the University of Memphis does not have such a configuration.

Among the four teams in the top four, only UCLA, which has Westbrook, Kevin Love, Darren Collison, and Luke Mbah a Moute, can match North Carolina on paper. Compare.

Let's talk about it, but to be reasonable, among the top four, the opponent Wang Xiao wants to meet the most is North Carolina.

Although there are four future NBA players, compared to UCLA and the University of Kansas, North Carolina is the weakest.

In another time and space, North Carolina encountered the University of Kansas, and the confrontation between the two teams ended with Kansas 84:66, beating North Carolina by 18 points.

This season, Kansas City is quite strong. Although Chalmers was the only one in the team who finally joined the NBA, and he could only take on the task of transporting basketball from the backcourt to the frontcourt in the Heat during the Big Three period. The team's overall tactics and coordination are close to perfection.

Even Memphis, ranked No. 1 in the United States, met Kansas, and was eventually reversed by Kansas in overtime.

Even so, North Carolina is still a strong opponent for Harvard.

In the shopping battle with the University of Memphis, Wang Xiao had already used up all his stocks.

Coach item cards, stamina recovery potions... In the current system, there is nothing except the victory points used for training as rewards for winning.

Facing North Carolina, Wang Xiao could only roll up his sleeves and work hard with his teammates!

This is another difficult and anxious game.

The suspense of the game lasted until the last moment, when Jeremy Lin finally broke through to attract double-teams and then passed the ball to Plain to end the suspense.

77:75, Harvard narrowly beat North Carolina by 2 points and reached the finals!

The next thing Wang Xiao and his players need to face is the University of Kansas, which defeated UCLA.

Everyone was looking forward to whether Harvard could go further. When they defeated Kansas and won the championship trophy, the situation changed.

After the game against North Carolina, Harvard's defensive gatekeeper Plain felt soreness in his left arm and shoulder. After an examination, he was identified as a muscle strain, with a small degree of muscle tear.

Obviously, this was an injury suffered in the game against North Carolina.

Fortunately, the muscle strain is not considered a serious injury and will not affect Prine's career, but unfortunately, due to a slight muscle tear, Prine needs to recuperate for at least a week or two. So I can't participate in the final with the University of Kansas!

For Harvard, this is undoubtedly a heavy blow!

Although on the bright side, Harvard seems to be a team led by Jeremy Lin with a single core, but in fact, the defensive tactics that the team really relies on requires Jeremy Lin and Priane to work together to exert their greatest power!

Plain's injury caused Harvard's entire defensive system to collapse, and its overall strength, which was already behind, could not be compared with the University of Kansas.

In the final final, even though Jeremy Lin tried his best to score a large double-double with 26 points and 15 assists, it was still difficult to prevent Harvard from being defeated.

At 83:67, Harvard finally lost the NCAA Finals for the first time in history by a gap of 16 points.

At the end of the game, Wang Xiao patted Jeremy Lin on the shoulder and comforted softly: "It's okay, life always has to face such failures, what you should do now is not to be sad, but to remember this humiliation in your heart, next time Win the damn match in one go!"

When Harvard University lost to the University of Kansas in the final, Wang Xiao's undefeated myth since coaching Harvard came to an end. His only defeat came from the final.

Wang Xiao failed to complete his declaration and won the NCAA championship.

But this time, none of the media wrote an article to ridicule Wang Xiao for his brashness.

Harvard has shown too many miracles along the way. If it weren't for Plaine's injury, Harvard would really hope to win the championship by defeating Kansas. After all, they eliminated the No. Popular University of Memphis!
