With a home win over the Heat, the Wizards have only one game left on their December schedule, the Dec. 30 game on the road against the Pacers.

Maybe it's because of the back-to-back against strong opponents, (the victory over the Green Army in the Christmas War, and then the victory over the Heat.) The Wizards had a mediocre away game, losing 121-113 and ending all their 2010 runs.

The regular season began on October 28, 2010, and from December 31, 2010, the Wizards played a total of 30 games, and in these 30 games, the Wizards achieved a 25-5 record, ranking first in the East.

It was followed by the Bulls' 25-6 loss, because of one more loss, and the relationship between the two teams' wins and losses, so even if the Wizards lost to the Pacers, the two teams had the same winning record, but the Bulls still ranked second below the Wizards.

And the two top two teams in the East are also ranked first and second in the league.

The top-ranked team in the West is the San Antonio Spurs, who currently have a 24-6 record.

Such a result was something that most people could not have imagined at the beginning of the season.

The Heat, who have the Big Three, can only sit in third place in the East with a 24-8 record, while the Wizards and Bulls are fighting to the death for the top spot in the league.

This makes people think deeply, are the Big Three really that strong?

Of course, this is only a slight suspicion, the super triumvirate of James, Wade and Bosh is absolutely invincible in the league, and even so far, the team with the highest odds to win the league is still the Heat, followed by the Lakers, Spurs, Celtics...... As the league's No. 1 Wizards team, because the composition of the roster is too young, it is only ranked sixth on the championship odds list, and it is lower than the Bulls who are ranked fifth.

The Bulls, who are also young teams, are still more trusted than the offensive Wizards, even if the Wizards' defensive quality this season has changed from last season.

However, the odds list for winning the championship has always been very unreliable, and Wang Xiao knows this better than anyone else, because the champion of the 10-11 season is not the Heat team, nor the Lakers, but the Dallas Mavericks.

I'm afraid no one could have imagined that the combination of the Heat's Big Three would be defeated in the face of the Mavericks with only Nowitzki leading the team alone.

Looking at the Mavericks' championship-winning lineup, in addition to Nowitzki, who averaged 27.7 points and 8 rebounds per game in the playoffs, the highest scorer was Jason Terry, who averaged 17.5 points per game, and there were only three teams who averaged double-doubles per game in the playoffs, Nowitzki's 27.7 points, Terry's 17.5 points and Shaun Marion's 11.9 points.

I have to say that this year's Mavericks are really strong, and they deserve to win the championship.

But Wang Xiao's eyes were not on the team in the west from beginning to end.

As the saying goes, if you want to go outside, you must first settle down, and you can't solve the problems in the east, and it's too funny to think about the problems in the west.

Until the playoffs kill the Heat, Wang Xiao didn't think much about the Mavericks.

His goal was clear from the start, to snipe the Heat.

And after that comes the question of honor.

It would be great if he could lift the championship trophy this season, but if he couldn't, Wang Xiao wouldn't be too worried, after all, he said when he came here that he would win the championship in five years, and this year is his second year in charge of the Wizards.

Curry, Harden and George have not fully grown to the level of their future peak, and even if they are quite good now, it is inevitable that nothing will go wrong in the high-pressure games of the playoffs.

……

The end of 2010 was accompanied by the arrival of 2011.

The Wizards have 17 games in their January '11 schedule, which is tighter than it was in December.

But it's not just the Wizards who have a tight schedule, it's the thirty teams across the league.

The Wizards, who only lead by a narrow margin, are far from sitting at the top of the East or even the league in this situation.

Only those who emerge from this tight and difficult schedule deserve to be number one in the league.

Neither Wang Xiao nor the Wizards wanted to give up their current No. 1 position in the league, so at the beginning of the game in January, the Wizards showed amazing dominance.

The first to break out was Curry, after the time entered January, Curry seemed to have suddenly turned on a switch, the three-point shooting rate was scary, the first three games in January against the Hornets, 76ers and Bobcats in three games, Curry scored 33 points, 31 points and 35 points respectively, and the three-point shooting rate was as high as 56%, which is terrifying.

With Curry's such strong firepower, the Wizards easily won these three games.

In the next few games, other teams that found Curry seemed to be a little invincible this month decisively defended it, and under the continuous wrapping and targeted defense, Curry's shooting rate outside the three-point line plummeted, and the number of shots received from the ball also decreased a lot.

However, the Wizards are not operating in a single core, and with Curry being targeted, Harden stepped up.

Whenever opposing players defend Curry tightly, there will inevitably be gaps in Harden's defense, and that's when his chance comes.

Today's Harden is not the Harden of the Thunder stage.

Under the vigorous cultivation of Wang Xiao's training module, Harden's growth speed is also extremely amazing, even if there is still a gap with Curry at this time, but compared with Harden when the Thunder was young, it is already more than a little bit stronger, and even slightly stronger than Harden who first joined the Rockets.

Although Harden averaged 25.9 points + 5.8 assists per game in his first year with the Rockets, his shooting percentage was only in the early 43%, and his efficiency was not very high.

The Wizards' version of Harden is averaging 21+8 per game at this stage, with a shooting rate of 47% and a three-point shooting rate of 39%.

With such high efficiency, when Curry was targeted, Harden was naturally the first to step up.

In the next few games, Curry only scored about 20-25 points per game, while Harden's score increased to about 28-30 points, and there were even two games in which Harden scored a double-double of 30+10.

The duo-driven Wizards were ferocious, and almost all of their games in early January were swept straight away, without a single defeat.

The Bulls, who are the most competitive team with the Wizards, had a little trouble in January.

When the Magic were playing, Howard broke out without warning, cutting down 39 points and 18 rebounds, and single-handedly broke the Bulls Jorkin. Noaga Carlos. Boozer's inside combo.

Losing to the Magic, the Bulls immediately trailed the Wizards again by one win in the win, and immediately after, the Bulls actually lost again, this time they didn't even face a traditional league powerhouse like the Magic, but a team that was at the bottom of the league last season.

New Jersey Nets.

Jeremy Lin's Nets.

In this game, Jeremy Lin scored 28 points, 14 assists, 7 rebounds and 4 steals, while Rose only scored 19 points, 6 assists, and 5 turnovers.

In a head-to-head confrontation with Jeremy Lin, Ross was completely defeated.

This is not the first time Rose has lost to Jeremy Lin, in the semifinals of the NCAA Championship in 08, Rose's University of Memphis lost to Harvard University led by Wang Xiao at that time, and he was also against Jeremy Lin at that time.
