Chapter 214 Plan to recruit the Wolf King(1/2)
"Coach, how is LaMarcus?"
Seeing the return of the main lineup, Coach Terry explained the injury to everyone: "According to the preliminary diagnosis, LaMarcus suffered a first-degree ankle sprain in his right foot. It will take at least two weeks to recover. Now the team doctors are using ice cubes to treat him."
It treats the wounds.”
It only takes two weeks, so it's a false alarm.
Teammates were relieved to hear that Aldridge would be back on the court in just two weeks.
Seeing that the players had calmed down, Coach Terry picked up the tactical board, planned tactics, and started directing!
"Damien, go and do more singles! Go and defeat the Lakers' back line!"
"Mike, use your muscles to push against Jamison and give him a confrontation. You allow him to easily get space to shoot!!"
"Wang, Dwight can't stop you. He has already committed four fouls. Find an opportunity to send him off!!!"
There was a full quarter left in the game, and the Blazers still had a chance to take the lead.
Things were going well on the sidelines, but on the court, as Kobe hit a three-pointer over a man's shot, the point difference widened to 14 points.
Mamba shows his fangs!
"Old man, I didn't expect you still had gas in the tank. I thought the Lakers boss had turned into Jamison!"
Wang Zelin couldn't help but provoke.
Everyone knows that provoking a Black Mamba is a very dangerous thing. He may very well poison you to death...
But at the same time, he is also likely to kill the team alone.
So Wang Zelin is betting!
"The Lakers are not my team alone. Victory is the result of everyone's joint efforts!"
Kobe replied calmly.
Already in his thirties, Kobe has long been fed up with the beatings from society, and he doesn't care at all about provocations from the outside world.
His biggest wish at this time is to win the sixth championship in his career... He knows that he will never be able to surpass the hot guy, but he still hopes to equal the number of championships.
This is a little-known, extremely simple little wish of an old blacksmith in Los Angeles.
"..."
Wang Zelin rolled his eyes, as if he had heard this before.
Damn! Isn’t this what I said two days ago?
This high school student who never went to college is just playing around with copy and paste...
The Trail Blazers attacked, Lillard dribbled over, and the whole court was on the three-point line.
Nash put a lot of pressure on him.
Of course, this is what Nash thinks.
Lillard called a pick-and-roll, rushed into the paint and got a foul!
The scene of this foul was booed!
Dwight, please be more careful!
D'Antoni took the harmless Howard off the court with a look of helplessness. He committed his fifth foul, and he couldn't do anything else.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Lillard made two free throws.
Looking back, Nash wanted to attack, but Lillard was also unable to defend him.
Lillard retreated while fighting. Although Nash had the advantage, he was old after all and was a little exhausted in the fourth quarter. It was unlikely that he could get rid of Lillard and score.
"Whoosh!"
Passed the ball!
Nash gave it to Kobe in the corner.
Seeing no one guarding him, Kobe opened his hand and fired a three-pointer.
Damn it!
I also forgot that this season when paired with Nash, Kobe achieved the highest offensive efficiency in his career.
No one expected that Kobe had such an excellent ability to move without the ball.
At 89:74, the Trail Blazers were 15 points behind.
No more, no hope!
…
Everyone comes down.
Wang Zelin played 33 minutes, making 13 of 20 shots and scoring 29 points, 14 rebounds and 5 assists. The statistics were pretty good. The Lakers couldn't stop him, and Howard even fouled out six times and left the game midway through the fourth quarter.
However, the Trail Blazers still lost to the Lakers...99:107.
In the last few minutes, Coach Terry took over the main lineup and gave up the no-match card. The second lineups of both teams competed with each other, and the point difference was recovered to within ten points.
The Trail Blazers suffered a two-game losing streak!
After the game, news suddenly spread everywhere that "the Trail Blazers are about to lose three games in a row for the first time!" Many experts and fans came to their senses. The Trail Blazers had never lost three games in a row this season.
The last two consecutive losses were to the Thunder and Nuggets in January, and during that period, Wang Zelin was suspended for 4 games.
After coming back, the opponent in the first game was the ultimate boss, the Miami Heat. Just when everyone thought that the Trail Blazers would suffer a wave of three consecutive kneels, Wang Zelin contributed a buzzer-beating buzzer-beater to help the team.
Stop the losing streak.
To break it down, there is no team that has suffered three consecutive losses this season, but there are only a few.
Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs, Portland Trail Blazers...and then they're gone.
After thinking about it, they discovered how much the dark horse team of the Portland Trail Blazers has changed this season...
There are only three teams in the league that have not lost three consecutive games in the regular season this season. Even last year's overall runner-up Oklahoma City Thunder have suffered three consecutive losses recently.
what does that mean?
it goes without saying.
Strong and long-term competitiveness... Compared to the championship favorites, the Heat and Spurs, the Trail Blazers' team structure appears to be very young, but such a young team has accomplished things that even the most powerful teams cannot do.
Son.
Under the exaggeration of media public opinion, the "three consecutive losses" has become the watershed between the championship-level teams and the ordinary playoff-level teams.
The Trail Blazers have inexplicably gained wider recognition, first reflected in the sudden rise in the team's strength rankings in major media.
?TNT promoted the Trail Blazers from fifth to third in the latest team strength rankings, and dropped the Thunder from third to fourth.
In the latest edition of ESPN's team strength, the Trail Blazers broke into the top five for the first time.
This made the Trail Blazers fans and Tianchao fans so happy that they just set off firecrackers and fireworks to celebrate.
?ESPN, as the most official and authoritative sports media in the United States, has always been notorious for not liking the Blazers' youth team. Even during the nine-game winning streak, ESPN was reluctantly ranked sixth. In most cases, it was ranked sixth.
Eight to ten.
In the bleachers, which implements the principle of "if you don't make a sound, it will be a blockbuster", after the latest update of the team's strength list, fans were shocked to find that the Trail Blazers ranked second, directly behind the Spurs.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The reason given by the bleachers is very simple and very powerful.
"The Trail Blazers are still a young team, but compared to the three old teams of the Spurs, we believe that the three Blazers deserve to have a broader future because they are young enough!"
The future is destined to belong to young people!
That's what the latest bleacher update is all about.
In response to this, some media went to San Antonio to interview Spurs coach Smarovich, but the latter avoided talking about it.
Noisy, passionate... these have never been the characteristics of San Antonio.
They prefer to make a fortune silently!
…
The next morning, he got up and practiced for more than half an hour. At eight o'clock, Wang Zelin finished breakfast and came to the team for training.
Tomorrow, February 25th, the next opponent is the Boston Celtics, and the Trail Blazers will play at home.
The Trail Blazers and Celtics only played each other once this season, but it was enough to make it unforgettable for anyone.
26 points, 30 rebounds and 5 assists...Wang Zelin’s first career super stat was obtained with the Celtics.
Compared to data, Wang Zelin cares more about people.
KG~Kevin Garnett!
In his first encounter with the Celtics, Garnett chose to fight fiercely at the last moment of the game. This move made Wang Zelin unforgettable.
