33 points, 21 rebounds, 7 blocks and 2 assists... a super triple-double!
Wang Zelin's performance in the first game of the new season cannot be overstated by saying "a great start". This is because he did not play off the court for most of the second quarter. He played only 31 minutes. Otherwise, this data would have to improve. One piece.
The rest of the team, 7 scored in double figures, Lillard scored 16 points and 13 assists, Aldris scored 22 points and 9 rebounds, Batum scored 15 points, Matthews scored 12 points, substitute Mo Williams and Garnett in the lineup also performed quite well, scoring 23 points and 11 points respectively.
In contrast, on the Mosaic team, except for Harden and Howard, the former scored 28 points and the latter scored 22 points.
Of the rest, only Jeremy Lin and substitute guard Patrick Beverley scored in double figures. The former scored 12 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds and 3 turnovers, and the latter also scored 12 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist. .
Of course, for many fans who did not watch the entire game, in this game, the "Moden Combination" scored 50 points together for the first time in their first appearance together, showing the style of the "league's number one center and future number one shooting guard" combination.
As for how come Howard and Harden are so good, why will the team still lose?
"They have tried their best, there is nothing they can do, who will let their teammates go to the CBA!"
As soon as the game ended, such arguments began to spread, centered in Houston.
At the press conference, Wang Zelin first praised all the Trail Blazers players, and then patiently answered reporters' questions one by one.
After getting a good start and winning by a big score, it is impossible to be in a bad mood. When you are in a good mood, you will naturally be much more patient than usual.
However, there was a minor episode during the interview.
When he faced the ESPN reporter, his expression was extremely guilty: "I'm really sorry. I accidentally broke the news. You just selected the number one center in the league this season. After all, you are the most authoritative media in the United States, so you still have to save face!" Don’t worry, I will definitely pay attention next time.”
The reality is that it may not be possible next time!
U.S. time, the evening of October 30, 2013.
The Portland Trail Blazers beat their opponents by 33 points on the road in the opening game of the 2013-14 season!
The first win of the new season was achieved.

--New York Times
"Crazy night! Crazy numbers! And... Houstonians are going crazy!" - Los Angeles Times
"OK combination in the new era? Come on, let's wait until the Mosaics pass the Trail Blazers in this year's playoffs!" - Shaquille O'Neal tweeted
"A debate has never been suitable for the NBA. According to reliable information from insiders: Howard went into battle with a slight waist injury that day. Such a fighting spirit deserves praise from all of us!"
——Espn famous reporter Henry Abbott
…
To be honest, the frenzy is happening in China.
Due to Yao Ming's increasing power in the political arena, and Wang Zelin's outstanding performance in his rookie season, which was convincing enough, the country officially decided to support Wang Zelin. It was no longer like last season. It was just a spontaneous decision by fans and some media. A small fight.
Never underestimate the power of the state machine!
As soon as the game ended, almost all of a sudden, the sports sections of major domestic portals became the back gardens of Wang Zelin and the Trail Blazers, and all the headlines on the home page were written by Wang Zelin and the Trail Blazers.
For example, pictures of "Wang Zelin catching Asik", "Wang Zelin alley-oop dunk", and "Wang Zelin passing the ball to assist Aldridge for a layup" have appeared over and over in major forums!
In addition to Wang Zelin's own game photos, there are also many underground photos of other teammates. Well-known players such as Lillard, Aldridge, and Batum have attracted countless fans overnight.
Some talents even started to find other channels. After finding that it was difficult to attract clicks for pictures of the game, they spent a lot of effort to get all kinds of hilarious pictures of the Trail Blazers during their break.
Not to mention, the whole thing is really eye-catching.
Ever since!
Wang Zelin's laughing pictures have begun to become popular on the Internet. Although there is still a certain gap between Chairman Yao's famous scenes, the momentum cannot be underestimated!
There are also some guys who are so idle that they play a game of "new wine in old bottles". To put it bluntly, they are using bad jokes in new ways!
The original title means: "Scoring 7 points and 3 rebounds in his first show, Alian smiled slightly, he has won the coach's trust!"
The article also included several pictures of Yi Jianlian scoring goals, dunking or shooting. The last picture was accompanied by a smile on the bench when he stood up and high-fived Wang Zelin who had just come off the court... The intention is self-evident.
Portland, USA.
Wang Zelin's home.
"Hahaha! Brother A Lian, come and take a look at this. The netizens are so crazy this time! I'm going! It's so fucking amazing..."
Leaning on the sofa, Wang Zelin laughed while scrolling through his mobile phone, frequently speaking beautiful Chinese dialect.
"What's wrong...fuck!"
Yi Jianlian came over with doubtful eyes, and the next second, another beautiful Chinese dialect blurted out.
"Don't look so grim. I checked the comment section and netizens are praising you!"
"hehe."
"Well, actually you played really well that day. I didn't expect you to adapt to the team's rhythm so quickly."
"hehe."
"..."
Come on, I'm talking to death.
"Wang, Yi, it's time to eat. I learned another Chinese dish from Sister Jin Ling today, called honey-glazed barbecued pork. Come and serve it for me."
Reina's voice came from the kitchen, breaking the sudden silence in the air.
"Oh, I'll come right away."
Wang Zelin jumped up from the sofa and left the living room running and jumping.
The second game of the season is scheduled for November 2, and the opponent is the Phoenix Suns.
Sending warmth properly!
The game will be held at 19:30 tonight. This is the Trail Blazers' first home game this season. Although the opponents seem a bit weak, well, in fact there are many, but coach Terry Stotts still asks everyone not to let down their guard. , there is no shortage of cases in the league where strong teams overturned and weak teams were upset at the beginning of the season.
They must win the first home game.
Yesterday, Yi Jianlian's wife Jin Ling came to the United States, and Wang Zelin and Reina visited their home. They reciprocated courtesy. Today it is their turn to visit Wang Zelin's home.
"Oh, it smells pretty good. Sister Jin Ling, please excuse me."
Although his family knew their own affairs, Wang Zelin had never noticed that Reina had any talent for cooking... She only knew how to eat.
Therefore, these dishes must be made by Jin Ling.
At first glance, it’s all Cantonese food.
Speaking of which, Wang Zelin didn't know that Yi Jianlian was married until he met Jin Ling yesterday.
Although they have been teammates on the national team for a long time, they only meet a few times a year and play a few games. Their friendship is good but never deep. Therefore, they do not take the initiative to talk about such personal issues. He would definitely not ask.
Later, Wang Zelin suddenly remembered that Yi Jianlian's personal information in later generations had shown that Yi Jianlian's first son was born on September 29 next year.
In other words, going back 10 months, the first love child between Yi Jianlian and Jin Ling was born at the end of this year...
Uh, wait, Wang Zelin suddenly realized that why he was thinking about these things had nothing to do with him. At most, he could consider being a godfather after Yi Jianlian's son was born...
Forget it, let’s talk about the future later.
The most important thing now is not to make a living.
As a cook, I should not forget such an important life event as cooking.
After breakfast, Wang Zelin and Yi Jianlian went to the team training hall together in the afternoon. The pre-war meeting was scheduled for the afternoon.
…
On November 2, the Trail Blazers played against the Phoenix Suns at home, and fans witnessed a feast of confrontation.
Even without D'Antoni now, the Suns have continued their run-and-gun and small-ball style system.
So after half the game, one side scored 58 points, and the other side, even more exaggerated, scored 66 points, almost 70 points... Well, the Trail Blazers are in front, and the Suns are behind.
Wang Zelin really felt it was poisonous.
Is it really going to overturn?
It seems that in the history of the NBA, there are really no shortage of cases where dark horses emerged at the beginning of the season and defeated the strong and overturned the seeded teams in the playoffs.
The typical representative is the Huskies, also known as the Timberwolves.
This team is also quite metaphysical. It always starts the new season with a fierceness like a tiger. It started with a small winning streak, which made Timberwolves fans seem to see the hope of the team's rise.
After the Christmas game, their upward momentum began to decline; after the annual All-Star Weekend, everyone knew that the Timberwolves were about to have another bad year!
They have experienced it so many times that fans in the future will know their regular season rules.
In fact, Wang Zelin just complained in his heart. He and his teammates are still very confident about winning.
Because he could obviously see that the reason why the Suns were able to lead by 8 points was entirely because the Suns' shooting percentage in the first half was too high.
The Trail Blazers' shooting percentage is still within the normal range. Their scoring average last season was 106 points, which was already at the forefront of the league. Although the team has become stronger this season, their scoring average will not be too high. Elevate, roughly in the range of 107~110.
The average score in a single quarter is between 26 and 28. Looking at it this way, their performance is very stable.
It's just that the opponent scored too many fairy goals, especially the three-point shooting rate of 10 of 14, which is simply outrageous.
However, Wang Zelin and the coaching staff believe that it is difficult for the Suns to maintain such a high shooting rate. As long as the Trail Blazers improve their defensive strength, by then, if the Suns can hold it, it will be fine. If they cannot, everything will be lost. All previous efforts will be wasted.
Sure enough, in the second half, the Trail Blazers players followed the coach's request and allowed the Suns players to experience the defensive intensity of the playoffs in advance. Their high shots eventually killed themselves.
The first half was an indiscriminate attack, and the second half turned into all kinds of crazy strikes.
Youdao means that things are changing.
When the Suns' three-point tactics failed, it was the Blazers' turn for the shooters to work hard.
Especially Lillard, who just set a record of 177 three-pointers in the history of his rookie season last year. He was on fire in the second half. He made 4 of 5 three-pointers in a single quarter and 9 of 13 in the game. The CCP played this game. He scored 35 points, and of these 35 points, 27 points brought by 9 three-pointers accounted for 77% of the total points.
In the last game, Wang Zelin worked hard and scored 33 points and 21 rebounds. Returning to the Rose Garden Arena this time, it was Lillard's turn to work hard, breaking his career record with 9 three-pointers in a single game. Watch 35 points and 8 assists…
In two games, the amazing performances of the two sophomores made every Blazers fan crazy.
Including the others who also contributed a total of 10 three-pointers, the Trail Blazers made 19 of 31 three-pointers, with a shooting percentage of 61.2%, shooting down the Suns in the most proud way of the Suns.
The Trail Blazers scored 121 points as a team, defeating the Phoenix Suns 121:108 with a 13-point advantage, and achieved their second victory of the new season.
Among them, three-pointers alone accounted for 57 of the team's points!
Suddenly, many people with foresight realized that the three-pointer may play an increasingly important role in the future league.
Because since the league has increasingly encouraged offense, the scoring average of all teams has been getting higher year by year.
You know, three or four years ago, the average points per game of the league's teams was only around 90+, and there were only a handful of teams that averaged 100 points per game.
Unlike now, there are many players who average more than 100 points per game. They dare to label themselves as belonging to a strong offensive team. Who is not a ruthless player who averages more than 105 points per game, and some even reach around 110 points.
The era of scoring explosion is coming!
In other words, the era of player data explosion is coming!
…
…
…
"A false alarm! The Trail Blazers are pleased to win two consecutive games and rank first in the league!"
Some praised the Blazers for their winning streak.
"The sun has finally set. I don't know when it will reach nirvana!"
There are also those who regret that the sun has lost.
There is one thing to say about the game between the Trail Blazers and the Suns. Whether it was the first half or the second half, the game was indeed exciting. Both sides showed their offensive firepower to the fullest.
Especially the Phoenix Suns, who were considered the weaker team before the game. They were able to suppress last year's Western Conference Finals-level Trail Blazers by 8 points in the first half, which is admirable enough.
What they've done is good enough.
Unfortunately, their opponents did better than them.
This led to even more heated discussions after the game.
There was still discussion in the last game. Wang Zelin clearly beat Howard but was not the league's top center. He was even one rank behind Howard in the ESPN player rankings.
This time another Trail Blazers player broke out.
Guard No. 0 ~ Damian Lillard!
This was one of the hottest rookies last year and is also recognized as one of the strongest rookies.
The twist of fate is that No. 36 on the same team is stronger...
In this year's player roster rankings, 3-year-old Zelin ranks among the top ten, while Lillard is among the top 20 or even the top 30 in the Villa League, but few media have ranked him in it.
This is not what Lillard wants to see.
There isn’t just one voice for the Portland Trail Blazers, there’s another voice in this land, and it’s me – Damian Lillard!
