Compared with Durant's 37 points, Leonard's 26 points may be inferior, but this is Leonard, not George.

It wouldn't be surprising if George scored 26 points in a game, but it was a rare turn for Leonard, who is known for his defense, and the scene where Durant almost walked around Leonard on the defensive end throughout the game is memorable.

But as the old saying in Huaxia, who doesn't eat dumplings during the New Year?

Leonard's outburst, in the eyes of the vast majority, was just the result of a sudden hot state.

But in the next few games, Leonard's performance made their jaws drop again.

Since the game against the Trail Blazers, Leonard's right to shoot in the team has been greatly improved, and he is second only to Curry in the whole team, and is consistent with Thompson.

As a result, in the subsequent Wizards' home game against the Kings, Leonard continued to play well, hitting 10 of 16 shots and finishing with 29 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists.

This was followed by the away game against the Lakers, in which Curry took a direct rotation, and Leonard's shots increased again, hitting 12 of 21 shots and scoring a career-high 35 points!

After a few games, Leonard's performance became better and better, which also shocked many people more and more.

Leonard's scoring is not particularly explosive, at least compared to Curry, who scored 40 or even 50 points at every turn, his career-high scoring ceiling of only 35 points is not high.

After all, although Leonard has been practicing long-range shooting under the guidance of Wang Xiao, he is better at offensive means under the basket, and the three-point shooting is not very good, which makes it difficult for Leonard to get super high scores unless he has unlimited firing rights.

But although the scoring ceiling is not high, Leonard's scoring line is quite high.

The reason is simple, the main offensive means are distributed under the basket, even if the hand is not too bad.

The closer you are to the basket, the higher your shooting percentage, and that's a truth that never changes.

Therefore, watching Leonard's score, even Wizards fans will feel a sense of security from the bottom of their hearts, like a needle.

That may be an exaggeration for Leonard right now, but the rest of the league is a bit numb.

The Wizards are really a monster team, as if star players are worthless, one by one.

The first 09 Curry Harden has become the league's top stars, and George, who was drafted in 10 years, would have been an All-Star starter if he hadn't been injured this season. Thompson and Leonard, two 11-year rookies, were both selected for the All-Star bench this season, and it didn't take long for the All-Star end for Leonard to show that he was not inferior to George on the front line!

Is this still a way to live?

The rise of Leonard has made the Wizards' record continue to soar, and in March, a month of intense competition and competition, the Wizards have only lost 2 games, and their record has reached a terrifying 66-8!

April is the end of the regular season, and the Wizards only have 8 games left in April, and as long as the Wizards can win 7 of these 8 games, they can break the Bulls' 72-win record and increase the single-season regular season winning record to a terrifying level of 73-9!

And this, still in the team's main player Paul. Achieved when George was injured and missed most of the season!

……

"I didn't expect it...... You're really going to do it. ”

On the phone, Jack, the Harvard varsity coach at the time, spoke with a hint of disbelief and a little disbelief.

Before the start of the NBA regular season, Wang Xiao told him that this season, the Wizards' goal is to hit the regular season win record held by the Bulls, 72-10!

At that time, Jack also thought that Wang Xiao was bragging, after all, the Wizards won 70 wins last season, and in his opinion, it was already the pinnacle of what could be done.

Throughout the summer, the Wizards only acquired two unknown players through the draft, Jamison retired, and the team let go of Whiteside, who is a good interior player, and it stands to reason that the Wizards should not be as good as last season in the new season.

But as a result, Wang Xiao's newly selected French center Gobert is so good, although he is not outstanding in statistics, but his contribution to the Wizards on the defensive end is even better than that of the Wizards' centers over the years.

That's right, Jordan Jr.'s free throws are too poor, McGee is easy to get distracted on the court, and although Whiteside's rebounding ability is good, it is not as sharp as Gobert's sense of smell in terms of interior defense and help defense.

None of them are as good as Gobert!

Now, unconsciously, the Wizards are only one step away from this record, and recalling Wang Xiao's confident words at the beginning, Jack can't help but feel great admiration for this friend again.

Wang Xiao's strength is not only reflected in the NBA.

The NCAA's March Madness has just come to an end, and after a month of frantic battles, the teams in the finals have finally been decided.

One of the two teams that made it to the finals was Harvard University.

Wang Meng and Cheng Jie seem to have become Harvard's super double stars, but they were overshadowed by one person.

Hao Peng.

SS-level growth template cards are not given for nothing, especially David. Robinson is one of the best SS players.

Hao Peng's height has now jumped to 2.13 meters, and his body is getting stronger and stronger.

In the Ivy League, Hao Peng played in 10 games and averaged 17 points, 15 rebounds and 3.6 blocks per game.

By the time of the NCAA Tournament Crazy March, Hao Peng's statistics were further upgraded, with an average of 21 points, 13.8 rebounds and 3.2 blocks per game, which almost destroyed all the centers opposing him, and his 21-point score was the second-highest score in the Harvard varsity team, second only to Cheng Jie, who used Reggie Miller's growth card and averaged 26 points per game.

When he landed in the NCAA for the first time, Hao Peng had the nickname "Little Giant", which happened to be the nickname of Da Yao when he entered the league.

American scouts are full of praise for Hao Peng, praising him as a super center that is rare to see in 20 years, and he will inevitably become the new ruler of the center position in the NBA in the future.

Then in the finals in early April, almost no one thought that the University of Texas, another school that made it to the finals, had a chance of winning.

Jack will become an NCAA championship coach again, and he knows very well that all of this is actually due to Wang Xiao.

Whether it is Cheng Jie, Wang Meng or Hao Peng, they were all personally selected by Wang Xiao and sent to Harvard.
