I'm Really Playing Basketball Chapter 844

Before the All-Star team, the Warriors successfully completed the transformation. After Ron Howard and Wade voluntarily gave up their starting positions to the younger and more dynamic Devin Booker and Jaylen Brown, the Warriors' offense and defense were all been greatly liberated.

After the All-Star team, with the return of the thick eyebrows, the liberation of the team brought qualitative changes to the Warriors.

If before the All-Star Game, before the Warriors change, the regular-season rankings are still in danger.

Then after the All-Star, the Warriors' No. 1 ranking in the Western Conference is exceptionally stable.

The Warriors' first game after the All-Star break was a home game against the Kings on Feb. 21, and the final game in March, on March 31, was a home game against the Bobcats.

The Warriors have won 19 games during this period.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the strongest opponents in these 19 games are the Heat, Bobcats and Spurs. During this period, the opponents of the Warriors are indeed not that strong.

So, under various factors, this wave of 19-game winning streak makes the Warriors seem to be dominant again.

After all, after this wave of winning streaks, the Warriors' record also came to 67 wins and 9 losses.

It has to be said that if the Warriors can still achieve 70 wins this season, it is really a miracle.

After all, the Warriors look like an ordinary 60-win team after the first third of the game is over.

But who would have thought that the Warriors have not even lost after the All-Star team.

That puts the Warriors back in second place in the league.

Of course, for the Warriors, it doesn't really matter if they can get 70 wins. As long as they are the No. 1 player in the Western Conference, that's fine.

As for 70 wins, of course it is the best, and it doesn't matter if there is no.

So in April, the Warriors actually played very open.

The Warriors' remaining six games in April are against the Nuggets, Lakers, Cavaliers, Clippers, New Orleans Hornets, and the Grizzlies in the closing game.

Overall, these six games were strong and weak, and the Lakers were still away.

However, considering the Warriors' current record of 67 wins, there is actually a very good chance of getting 70 wins.

Even if the Warriors play very openly, as long as they win the Nuggets, the Hornets and Grizzlies are the three weaker teams.

And in the end, the Warriors went 3-3 in those six games in April when the Warriors had a lot of rotation and a defense that wasn't as integrated.

Lost to the three strong teams of the Lakers, Cavaliers and Clippers, and also defeated the three weaker teams of the Nuggets, Hornets and Grizzlies.

What's more interesting is that when playing these three weak teams, it was not all smooth sailing, especially against the Grizzlies. In this game with the Grizzlies, Chen Xiao originally came off after halftime.

But who would have thought that the Grizzlies scored a crazy 86 points in the first half, which made the Warriors coach Kerr a little angry.

Let you be free, but you can't be so casual. Finally, at Chen Xiao's request, Chen Xiao continued to play in the second half of the game, and finally regained face for the Warriors, the first and defending champion in the Western Conference, and finally won 137 to 132 on the road. beat the Grizzlies.

For a team like the Grizzlies, the championship and the playoffs are impossible. For them, the most important game is the last game of the season in front of the home fans.

This game is played well, no matter how bad the previous game is, the fans will support them.

Therefore, for the Warriors in the last game of the regular season, they can play, they can start Robinson, Alexander, Allen, John Colin, the four first-year and second-year rookies, and even Chen Xiao can be long-lost. Play a point guard.

You can come as you want.

But obviously, the Grizzlies are not like that.

I have to say that the Grizzlies really played very well in this game. The team's rookie point guard Jevon Carter, who is 1.88 meters tall, faced Chen Xiao and dared to fight, making 10 of 18 three-pointers. He scored 8 of 12, scored 32 points, and brought his little quickness to the extreme.

And his explosion was also the reason for Kerr's dissatisfaction in the first half.

It is predictable that Chen Xiao can't defend against such a quick spirit. Kerr is very dissatisfied that other players in the team do not fill Chen Xiao's position, allowing him to hit so many three-pointers.

Let's just put it this way, considering Chen Xiao's height and defensive ability, Carter's three-pointer must not have been hit by Chen Xiao's head.

This kind of offense can cause so much power because the team's defensive integration is not good enough.

Of course, this is also understandable. After all, Chen Xiao did not take a rest as the team's starter in this game. They were all substitutes and young players of some teams.

However, obviously, for Kerr, Carter, the beggar version of Curry, can play the Warriors like this. If he really meets the real Curry, what should we do?

However, in the end, with the data of Chen Xiao 21 of 31, 7 of 12 three-pointers, 12 of 12 free throws, 61 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, the Warriors finally defeated the Grizzlies. , won the team's 70th game of the season.

The Warriors ended the season with a record of 70 wins and 12 losses.

This record ranks second in the league and first in the Western Conference, behind only the Bucks, who are 74 wins and 8 losses this season.

At the end of the season, only the Bucks and the Warriors have reached 70 wins.

In the East, the Bucks ranked first, while the Cavaliers and Heat ranked second and third, Philadelphia 76ers, Washington Wizards, Nets, Knicks, Toronto Menglong ranked fourth to eighth.

By the way, the Washington Wizards have a better record than the 76ers this year, just because the 76ers are the first in the division, so they are in the top four.

James Harden, the head player of the Washington Wizards, has performed well this season, averaging 36.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 2 steals per game, averaging 44.2% shooting and 37% three-pointers per game. Pretty good.

At the same time, he also became the third player after Kobe and Chen Xiao in the past 20 years to average more than 36 points per game.

And he is also the scoring leader this season. As the scoring leader, he can lead the team to a record of 54 wins and 28 losses. Seriously, if it wasn't for Curry this season, Chen Xiao was too defiant, he could even compete for MVP.

Of course, according to the ranking of the official MVP rankings in the last round, Harden is also ranked fifth after Curry, Chen Xiao, James, and Rose, and even above Durant.

And James Harden has also become one of the biggest highlights of the NBA this season. After all, in addition to Chen Xiao, James Harden has also become the second player in NBA history to hit a 60+ triple-double.

And not only 60+ triple-doubles, James Harden has also hit a lot of 50+ triple-doubles and 40+ triple-doubles this season.

After Westbrook broke the ordinary triple-double data, ultrhigh-end triple-doubles like 60+ triple-doubles are still very valuable.

So James Harden has received a very high evaluation this season.

By the way, at the end of this season, Curry was officially ranked ahead of Chen Xiao in MVP rankings. This is actually mainly because the Bucks double-killed the Warriors this season. With similar data to Curry, Curry's MVP this season is actually still ahead.

Certainly not as stable as last season.

After all, this season, Chen Xiao averaged more than 30 points per game.

After talking about the east, let's talk about the west side.

On this side of the West, the Warriors with 70 wins are ranked first, the Lakers with 60 wins ranked second, then the third, the Jazz and the Spurs fourth, the Clippers in fifth, and the Trailblazers in sixth. The seventh is the Timberwolves and the eighth is the Kings.

This season, Chen Xiao can average 30.1 points, 11.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.5 blocks per game.

In the scoring list, Chen Xiao is tied for third behind James Harden, Westbrook, and Curry.

Well, it's interesting that Chen Xiao and Curry have played the same amount of games this season and scored the same amount.

This season, Curry averaged 30.1 points, 7.5 assists, 5.5 rebounds and 2.1 steals per game. He shot 50.5% from the field, 45.5% from three-pointers, and 90.8% from the free throw line. He is an undisputed super 180 club.

What's interesting is that this season, Chen Xiao's shooting percentage is 59.5%, 45% from three-pointers, and 90.5% from free throws. Chen Xiao is also a super 180 club this season.

And this is why Curry's mvp seems to be in the lead, but it doesn't seem to be so stable.

Chen Xiao and Curry's performance this season can definitely be called MVP-level existence.

Anyone can get mvp.

Of course, from the hearts of many experts and celebrities, Curry is more worthy of his name. After all, he has the first record in the regular season and also double-killed the Warriors.

However, after all, Chen Xiao's prestige is there.

As for the final result, whether Chen Xiao was crowned MVP for the sixth time in his career or Curry's second MVP in his career, it will take a while to know.

Anyway, for Chen Xiao and Curry themselves, they must not be so concerned about this honor.

The championship is definitely more attractive to them than mvp.

After the successful conclusion of this year's regular season, the first round of the NBA playoffs has also been released.

On the East side, the Bucks play Menglong, the Cavaliers play the Knicks, the Heat play the Nets, and the 76ers and the Wizards face off.

In the West, the Warriors play the Kings, the Lakers play the Timberwolves, the Jazz play the Blazers, and the Spurs play the Clippers.

From the first round of the East-West confrontation, there are still a lot of grievances.

For example, when Embiid plays Harden in the East, Embiid has been complaining about James Harden making too many free throws this season. He needs to carry his hands behind his back to defend him. The grievance between the two can only be said to have a long history.

On the west side, the biggest grievance game is of course the Spurs playing the Clippers. The Spurs and the Clippers have been the biggest mortal enemy in the West over the years.

According to many people, the Spurs were destroyed by the Clippers.

Even though the Spurs have been the winner of the playoff matchup against the Clippers in the past two seasons, the fact that they were destroyed by the Clippers makes the Spurs very high every time they encounter the Clippers.

Of course, the Lakers fight against the Timberwolves, Kobe Bryant and Garnett, the two head coaches, is also quite interesting.

But in general, except for the 76ers and Wizards, Clippers and Spurs, the other six groups, in fact, the difference in strength between the two sides is still very large.

Therefore, after the first round of the matchup was released, when many experts in the NBA predicted the first round of the playoffs, except for the Wizards and the 76ers, the Spurs and the Clippers, the other six groups were resolved within five games.

Although it is said that the strength of the eastern and western teams in the league is now pulling in, the strength of the upstream and downstream teams in the eastern and western regions has not diminished.

The east side is a little better, the west side is really the last few people in the west, just make up the number.

So the question is, is this really the case?

Is there really no suspense in these six groups, as the experts predicted?

Things are really not that simple.

The Warriors defeated the Kings led by Yinbaka 4-0 on April 21 and advanced to the second round.

But aside from the Warriors, there was no sweep in the first round.

In the match between the Bucks and Menglong, Menglong's Milicic, a super offensive center, is a preview before the Bucks beat the Cavaliers. Milicic is very restrained by the Bucks, and the Bucks do not want to end the fight with Menglong soon. In the playoffs, the two teams ended up 4-2, and the Bucks advanced.

In the game between the Cavaliers and the Knicks, although Westbrook shot 36% and 22% of the three-pointers in the entire training game, one of the garbage, but G3, Westbrook made 17 of 39 and 21 of 3-pointers. 8, 10 of 17 free throws, scored a super triple-double of 51 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists, and led the Knicks to defeat the Cavaliers, and finally got rid of the fate of being swept.

By the way, Westbrook's 50+ triple-double in the playoffs also became the third player after James and Chen Xiao to hit a 50+ triple-double in the playoffs.

One game of God, three games of ghost, and finally led the team out, but the data of the series is still a beautiful triple-double with an average of 30+ per game.

When the Heat played against the Nets, Irving and Ingram still had very good performances. Of course, the Heat were stronger. Rose, LaVine, DeRozan and Gao Bo all performed very well, especially LaVine and Gao Bo. Before the start of the season, not many people thought that LaVine played so well this season. After all, a player with a broken leg, and Gao Bo, the rookie player, averaged 15 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists per game in the playoffs for the first time. A double-double with 2 blocks and a 55% shooting percentage is even more incredible.

It can only be said that the Heat are indeed suitable for Gao Bo, Ross can be sudden, Brother Zan and LaVine can vote, and his inside partner Bam Adebayo is very comprehensive, can grab, fight, finish, and top people. He can also pass the ball, which is great.

It can be said that Adebayor can top what Gaobo is lacking now.

So the Heat's chemistry this season is really good.

In the end, relying on Ingram's stability and Irving's two magic balls, the Heat eventually eliminated the Nets 4-2.

The Lakers, the second in the West, beat the Timberwolves 4 to 1, the Jazz, the third in the West, beat the Blazers 4 to 2. The Blazers' Lillard also played crazy in this series.

In a crazy 50+ game, the entire training game averaged 34 points and the three-point shooting rate was close to 50%. The Jazz were a little confused by him.

This star who played **** in last year's World Cup is still the star player who can chop melons and vegetables when he arrives in the NBA.

Sir, it is dangerous to win.

In addition to these six games, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com In two other games that were considered to be very intense, the Spurs led by Jimmy Butler defeated the Clippers 4-1, while the Wizards led by James Harden were defeated 4-1. 76 people.

The two predicted fierce competitions are not very intense.

The first round of the competition is over, and everyone turns their attention to this season's awards season.

The most talked about MVP award went to Stephen Curry.

This was expected, but the result was not too surprising.

However, the results of the vote are still pretty close.

Curry got a 51% first choice rate, and Chen Xiao's first choice rate was also 45%.

It's surprisingly close.

To be reasonable, many people think that Curry and Chen Xiao's first choice rate should not be so close.

It can only be said that this season, Chen Xiao can play such a season at the age of 37, which is indeed a very good bonus.
