Entering the final quarter, Wiggins still refused to give up and had a feeling of never looking back until he hit the wall.
The outcome was obvious. Wiggins faced unlimited double defense changes and was flanked when he broke in.
Beverley, Button, Batum, and Harrell took turns to apply pressure. Wang Zelin sat under the basket and could make up for it at any time...
Tonight, Carter and Jefferson did not play. The two veterans are experienced and do not need to run in. Lillard played 15 minutes in the first half and did not play again in the second half.
Now that he has won three consecutive championships and is the starting point guard of the dynasty, Lillard has become famous and his mentality is naturally much calmer than in his previous life. He also enjoys catching fish occasionally.
The other players on the Trail Blazers, whether they were in the main rotation or rookies getting playing time, got a chance to show themselves.
Wang Zelin played 33 minutes and made 21 of 28 shots, including 2 of 3 three-pointers, and 8 of 10 free throws. He scored 52 points, 22 rebounds, 5 assists, 6 blocks and 1 steal, a super double-double.
52 points in a single game! ! !
Wang Zelin became the second 50-point player in the 2016-2017 regular season, surpassing the single-game record of 51 points set by Thunder star Russell Westbrook in the game between the Thunder and the Suns at the end of October. Record.
Not long ago, when Westbrook, who had been averaging triple-doubles in a row, scored 50 points or more in his first single game of the season, many media and fans were eager to put him on the altar.
Take ESPN for example. After the first week of the new season, ESPN quickly updated the first regular season MVP rankings. Westbrook, who has both record and data, beat Wang Zelin, James, Harden, and Library. Li, Durant and others successfully topped the list.
In the past four years, this is the first time Westbrook has topped the regular season MVP rankings!
Again, despite the fact that the triple-double data of later generations has been completely devalued by Master Wei, it has no gold content at all, and even has a derogatory connotation to a certain extent.
But in the 2016-17 season, the miracle of averaging a triple-double in a season reappeared after 55 years. When Westbrook really became the second player in history to average a triple-double in a season after Oscar Robertson... …
That year, he was Megatron who was supported by thousands of basketball fans!
Therefore, when Westbrook averaged a triple-double per game and defeated many powerful opponents to reach the top of the MVP rankings, the impact on the outside world was quite terrifying.
At the same time, Westbrook's ascent to the top also successfully annoyed several other current superstar fans.
From November to now, several fans have been verbally criticizing Westbrook, especially the Wangmi fans, whose fighting ability is off the charts.
But if you think about it carefully, Wang Zelin has directly monopolized the regular season MVP award in the past three years, and also has three consecutive championships in hand. It was at the height of his popularity that he was now suppressed by Westbrook. This made his fans How can I bear it.
Finally, today, Wang Zelin also had a small explosion, breaking the previous season record of 51 points in a single game held by Westbrook. This made Wang Mi immediately happy and rushed to tell each other online.
…
Rose Garden Arena.
The Trail Blazers finally defeated the Kings with a huge score of 125:89, achieving their eighth consecutive victory since the start of the season and maintaining their undefeated streak!
Wiggins played for 41 minutes. Although he scored 28 points, he made 11 of 31 shots, 24 of which were scored in the first half, and only 4 points in the second half!
Kings coach Joe Geer was so frustrated that he really wanted to find a time period when the opponent's defense was not good, so that Wiggins could give him a good brush and regain his confidence.
His scoring talent is as strong as that of Du Xiaoshuai. In the first few years of his career, he relied solely on the unlimited fire rights granted by the Thunder to be refined into steel.
However, the opponent's unlimited defense tactics are terrifying! Not only is the defensive end airtight, but the offensive end also has Wang Zelin, the blue man's killer.
The Kings went crazy in the second half, but the opponent always scored steadily. Under the ebb and flow of one another, it was difficult for the Kings to survive.
In addition to Beverley, Button, Batum, and Harrell, the Trail Blazers' bench players also performed very well.
Take Zubac and McCaw, who only played five or six minutes tonight, for example. The current defense is definitely not good, but the strength is that they have a correct attitude and are willing to work hard!
Why are some teams in the NBA prone to producing talented players, while some teams are always able to cripple talented players?
The key lies in team culture.
To be precise, it depends on whether this team has a winning culture.
At this point, the Trail Blazers are undoubtedly the best team in the league, if not one of them, because they have proven in the past three years that they are the biggest winner in the NBA!
The soil and water support the people, and in an environment like the Trail Blazers, it is naturally very conducive to the growth of rookie players.
This led to the Trail Blazers' 36-point massacre tonight, setting the largest point difference in a single game in the new season.
…
"52 points in a single game! A battle with super gods! 》This is the headline given by a domestic sports website after the Trail Blazers won their eighth consecutive victory.
"MVP, it must be the king!" "This is the voting title given by TNT during Wang Zelin's post-game interview after the Trail Blazers won.
The media loves to cause trouble. Not long ago, Westbrook was promoted to the altar and was once considered the favorite for MVP this season. However, after Wang Zelin scored 52 points on the spot, the media quickly changed the direction and began to praise Wang Zelin crazily.
Sure enough, the media is nothing but a mere wallflower, falling in whatever direction the wind blows.
But since you are bragging about someone like me, please forgive me for once.
…
…
On the first match day after the third week of the 2016-17 regular season, the news that Wang Zelin scored 52 points efficiently in just 33 minutes of play quickly shocked the entire league.
Lakers star and Black Mamba Kobe immediately said on Twitter: "52 points in a single game, this is crazy? What? Wang got it, then it's okay..."
At first glance, this doesn’t fit with Tsundere’s character.
But in fact, in the past four years, Kobe and Wang Zelin lost more than they won, and Wang Zelin also acted wildly at the Staples Center several times, but this did not hinder Kobe's appreciation of this junior.
Seniors and so on are originally meant to surpass them, so why should they hold back?
This is how the fledgling Peter Pan treated the old Flying Man, and now Wang Zelin treats him the same way. Not only did Kobe not feel there was anything wrong, but he also happily accepted Houlang's challenge.
Therefore, when Wang Zelin's performance gets better and better, Kobe becomes more and more likely to become Wang Biao. In the past two seasons, he has been in front of the media to praise Wang Zelin more than once.
Besides, Shaq did it too!
Ahem
In fact, in addition to Kobe, many current stars and retired celebrities also accepted interviews.
Especially for retired celebrities, the free traffic should not be wasted.
In the previous step, legendary shooter Rhea Lun, who just announced his retirement on November 1, said in an interview: "I have never seen a player like Wang. He is so big but can run so fast and jump. So tall, and able to look inside and outside, this is such a bummer!”
In Cleveland, when the little emperor was at home gearing up to go to Space City to have a passionate encounter with Gua Ge in a few days, his expression instantly became solemn when he saw this news.
That kid seems to be getting stronger again!
Turning on the video playback, after watching it, James sighed helplessly.
Not only because of Wang Zelin, but also because of the strong teams in the Western Conference this year.
Durant's move to join the Warriors was like a spark suddenly appearing in a powder keg, completely blowing up the entire Western Conference.
What followed was another round of crazy arms race in the West.
Before the start of this season, many well-known media such as ESPN, TNT, Bleachers, and Sports Illustrated announced their favorite teams to compete for the championship in the new season.
Taken together, there are eight teams that are capable of competing for the championship in the new season.
In the West, the Golden State Warriors, Portland Trail Blazers, San Antonio Spurs, Los Angeles Lakers, and Houston Mosaics are all considered potential contenders for the championship.
On the Eastern side, there are only three teams: the Cleveland Cavaliers, Toronto Warriors and Chicago Bulls.
There are five championship teams in the West, while there are only three in the East.
The key is that among the eight favorite teams to win the championship, the Warriors and Trail Blazers in the West are considered to be the teams with the highest probability of competing for the championship, while the Cavaliers, recognized as the strongest in the East, can only be ranked with the Spurs and Lakers. The second and third pots are the Mosaics, Raptors and Bulls.
For now, the league has developed a two-super and multiple-power structure.
Now that the two Super Leagues are in the West, it is undoubtedly a great irony for the Eastern teams!
But they couldn't find a reason to argue.
Last season, the Trail Blazers won 75 games in the regular season and the Warriors won 73 games. Their strength is already ahead of other strong teams. In the new season, while their core framework remains unchanged, they have made varying degrees of reinforcements, making other strong teams increasingly desperate.
As the leader of the Eastern Conference, James is the first to bear the brunt. He is always thinking about how to deal with the five powerful players in the Western Conference.
For this reason, he lost a lot of hair and his hairline became more and more obvious.
I don’t know if he can bring a championship to Cleveland this season?
In other words, there is no hope for the future.
James looked at the Blazers celebrating crazily on the TV and couldn't recover for a long time.
…
To be honest, Wang Zelin didn't expect that he could make headlines just by scoring 52 points.
Are people nowadays...all so superficial?
Cricket only scored 52 points. If this were placed on Chamberlain, it would not be worth mentioning at all.
Sure enough, his image as a "data maniac" in the new century is not as deep-rooted as he imagined, and he will have to keep up his efforts.
Since leading the Trail Blazers to establish a dynasty, Wang Zelin's desire to challenge for the championship is no longer as strong as before. In order to prevent himself from being idle, he can only take the initiative to increase the difficulty of the challenge.
In the future of his career, he wants to win championships, and he also wants to grab statistics and records!
In the ancient days of the NBA, Russell and Chamberlain were two extremes. The former represented the ultimate team and victory, and the latter represented the ultimate individual and data.
Now, he wants to become a combination of Russell and Chamberlain, and he wants all the honors and data.
In his opinion, only by achieving this step can he hope to surpass Danzi in terms of career honors as a player and compete for the throne of the God of Basketball.
On the 10th, the Trail Blazers challenged the Clippers away from home.
In the new season, the Clippers are still determined to mess up their big business. Even the sharpshooter JJ Redick was released in exchange for the Kings' future draft picks. This shows their determination to mess up.
In this way, Griffin feels comfortable and has a good feel for Durant's treatment in the first few years as a rookie. The team has a lot of ball rights and can use the data as he wants.
Of course, Griffin is also very impressive and can still evolve at the age of 27.
This summer, it was rumored that he apprenticed under Olajuwon and learned the steps of Big Dream.
Before the game, Wang Zelin used the system to test Griffin's ability attributes. Ball control, mid-range shots, breakthroughs, layups, etc. have all been improved. His overall personal ability score has also reached 89, and he is only one step away from becoming an active superstar. .
Speaking of which, as the No. 1 pick in the 2009 draft, Curry and Harden have both reached the peak of their lives. Regardless of team record or personal strength, they have already left behind the former No. 1 pick in the same session.
If Griffin thought there was no quarrel, he would be lying.
But fortunately, he is still young. Not to mention catching up with Kuha and Coha, he can at least shorten the distance between him and these two players of the same generation.
Seeing that Griffin's strength had improved, Wang Zelin suddenly became interested: "Brothers, we will deal with him tonight."
Lillard, Barton, Batum, and Beverley instantly had black question marks on their faces. In their minds, Griffin didn't seem to have offended his boss.
But seeing Wang Zelin's excited expression, they could only look at Griffin with pity.
Alas, you are just unlucky to be targeted by evildoers.
As a result, the teammates quickly nodded crazily at Wang Zelin...
After the game started, under Griffin's surprised gaze, the Trail Blazers were like a brand-new supercar, continuing to surge towards the Clippers penalty area...
That scene almost made the Clippers fans in attendance cry.
The Clippers were overwhelmed in the third quarter and had no choice but to surrender, and ultimately lost to the Trail Blazers 92:121.
Fortunately, Griffin's money this summer was not in vain. He did learn something real from Dameng. Not only did he become more flexible at the basket, but his mid-range shooting was also more stable.
As we all know, if you have good shooting skills, it is difficult to be restricted.
Griffin's mid-range shooting ability is not that superb yet, but it just happened to coincide with his explosive shooting today.
In this game, he played 38 minutes and made 14 of 30 shots, including 2 of 5 three-pointers and 6 of 8 free throws. He scored a personal-high 36 points since the start of the new season!
Plus 11 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 block.
The injured hearts of the Clippers got some solace. After all, Griffin scored 36 points against the Trail Blazers, which is full of gold content.
At this time, they can only have fun from another angle.
For Wang Zelin, because Shafen was not as fun as he imagined, he only played 30 minutes and then took a rest. However, he still efficiently contributed 33 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, and was named the best player of the game.
With nine consecutive wins since the start of the season, the Trail Blazers continue to be undefeated!
