In less than two months after the start of the game, the echelon formation of the east and west slowly appeared.

The Kings are stable in the top four in the West, and their record has occasionally been counterattacked, but overall they are still relatively stable, and they can play against strong teams in the league and teach weak teams to behave.

In the West, the most surprising thing is the Spurs.

The old and stalwart Spurs have completed a magnificent transformation this season.

Popovich has finally stopped sticking to the old-fashioned style of play and the three-point shooting, and this season, the Spurs have played as efficiently as ever defensively, and their offense has improved a lot compared to previous seasons.

The top three in Texas are still fierce, but they seem to be far from as beautiful as they seem.

The Spurs deliberately hibernate Tim Duncan in the regular season, and many statistics, including playing time, fell to a career-low value, but unexpectedly, Tiago Split, the "Brazilian Godtower", did not play as expected. In the playoffs, whether Duncan can regain his might, and whether Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker's health can be guaranteed, is the biggest question for the Spurs to consider.

Then in the middle of December, the Mavericks and Spurs ushered in a wave of six consecutive losses.

The Spurs fell out of the top four, and the Mavericks fell out of the top eight.

In the last 30 years of NBA history, only the Rockets have suffered five consecutive defeats in the regular season, and then won the championship.

Texas fans had no choice but to refocus on the Rockets.

Fortunately, the rocket is stable.

The twin towers can contribute 45+20 data per game, and sometimes, the two will also score 50+ or even 60+ points together, becoming the most firepower inside combination in the league.

Yao Ming, who is about to be 31 years old, encountered a No. 4 position who can pass the ball, and the offensive firepower was released to the extreme.

Except for Texas, the rest of the West has shown chaos.

Carmelo Dantoni, the best player of the Denver Nuggets clamoring to leave, the Portland Trail Blazers are likely to lose the core of the team for the next 5-10 years, Brandon Roy, the New Orleans Hornets are not even the owner; The Memphis Grizzlies have all but abandoned one of their former cores, OJ Mayo, and have become a team with a front-court duo as the main axis.

The Phoenix Suns and the Utah Jazz have begun to rebuild. These six former playoff powerhouses will struggle to maintain their strength in the new season, while the Los Angeles Clippers, Minnesota Timberwolves, and the Golden State Warriors, who have reorganized their core, are like upstarts.

In the East, the Heat triumvirate was completely disrupted.

In addition to the Celtics and Magic, the Chicago Bulls are a new team on the rise in December, the Bulls are gradually showing a dark horse posture, and third-year junior Derrick Rose has become the new favorite of the league.

Derrick Rose, under Thibodeau's system, has a high degree of freedom. He can hold the ball like Paul or shoot freely like Kobe, and he has improved in every way after the 2010 World Championships.

.........

The Kings are the defending champions, and the league has a Christmas game scheduled.

At the end of December, the biggest attraction of the league is the Christmas war, this year, Christmas is scheduled for a total of 5 games, in addition to the Kings vs. Denver Nuggets, there are also Warriors vs. Trail Blazers, Heat vs. Lakers, Knicks vs. Bulls, Celtics vs. Magic.

Every game has something to watch, especially the Heat vs. Lakers game.

December 5th.

Kings home court, Sacramento.

Nuggets come to attack.

It stands to reason that the Nuggets are also the first brother in the Northwest in the past few years, and they are also a powerhouse in the West, and there can be a lot of sparks between the two teams.

But what fans didn't expect was that Carmelo Anthony was actually out injured.

The Nuggets have a lineup consisting of Chauncey Billups, Hilario, Kenyon Martin, JR Smith and others, which is also offensive and defensive.

The Nuggets' offense is fast-paced, and there are already track and field teams in their infancy.

At the beginning of the game, JR Smith and Billups fired on the outside one after another, especially JR Smith, who hit three points one after another, and DeRozan, who shot it, once wondered if he had met Kobe.

JR-Smith has been in the league for many years, and he spent an unhappy rookie season with the Hornets before coming to the Nuggets, which can be regarded as really getting through the second vein of Ren Du, and gradually has the style of "Kobe Bryant", and his offensive ability with the ball is very good, if it were not for the power outage on the defensive end and the unstable special system, it would be more than enough to be a starting point guard.

In today's Christmas game, JR Smith seemed very excited, facing DeRozan, the No. 2 player in the league who is now ranked before him, and frantically attacked outside.

In the second half of the first quarter, the Kings picked up, and Afralo, who came off the bench, scored four points in a row to help the Kings stabilize their position.

Kidd is still recovering from an injury, and backup point guard Bledsoe has taken over the team's offensive banner.

Bledsoe's organizational ability is average, but the breakthrough is fierce, Wang told him tomorrow that there is nothing else to do after he gets on the court, just to make a breakthrough, impact the opponent's inner line, can make fouls and make fouls, and can't make fouls and strive to create chaos.

Nuggets head coach George Karl showed a look of interest when he saw Bledsoe and Afflaro on a rampage on the court.

"These two little ones are kind of funny."

George Carr said to the assistant coach.

The assistant coach nodded.

"Coach Wang Mingming can always develop some excellent players, and the players are working very hard to develop in the direction that Wang Mingming wants, he is simply full of magic." George Karl is very envious of the obedient players under Wang Mingming, he now has only one Carmelo Anthony, and he is not at ease, and he is still bent on leaving the old coach.

There is no substantive contradiction between the two, but Anthony has changed now, Anthony has seen the Heat Big Three group, and he also wants to hold a group now, as for whether to go to Los Angeles or New York, it depends on the team's arrangement, as far as the current point of view, the probability of the New York Knicks getting Carmelo Anthony is very high.

Without Anthony, the Nuggets would have become a civilian team with even fewer stars than the Kings.

On the Kings' side, Al Jefferson played a wonderful performance in the second quarter, turning the river over the sea inside, scoring 14 points in a single quarter to help the team overtake the score.

The Kings followed up with a barrage of three-pointers.

"The shooter is on, and this game is not easy to play." Zhang Weiping stroked his palms and smiled, seeing that Wang Mingming commanded and replaced the big man Cosby on the court, he was inexplicably worried about the Nuggets.

The Nuggets did not change their defense quickly, and Wang arranged for the team to block and dismantle several beautiful elbows tomorrow, and the team's offense was well organized.

In the end, the Kings defeated the visiting Denver Nuggets 107-97 at home.

Al Jefferson recorded a double-double of 25 points and 12 rebounds, and on Christmas Day, he gave a wonderful performance of his own.

On the Nuggets side, JR scored 27 points in the game, but the front was on the back iron, and at the end of the game, it was almost invisible.
