Chapter 338: Successive Battles
Although the Raptors have lost two in a row, showing the true colors of a pseudo-strong team, the Raptors' results are still very strong.
In first place in the East, with the end of the November game, the stats for the new month are out.
In terms of rankings, the first place in the East is the Raptors, with a record of 13 wins and 4 losses, ranking first in the East.
The second place is the Magic, 12-4, the third place is the Celtics, who are also 12-4, the fourth place is only 9-6, the fifth place Hawks are 10-7, the sixth place is 9-8, the seventh place Pacers is 7-7, the eighth place Knicks are 8-9, the ninth place Cavaliers are 7-9, the tenth place Pistons, the eleventh place Bucks are 6-10, the twelfth place Bobcats are 6-11, the thirteenth place Wizards are 5-10, the fourteenth place Nets are 5-11, and the bottom is the 76ers. 4 wins, 13 losses! However, although the Raptors are in first place in the East because of one more win, but according to the West, their results are not so perfect! In the West, the top three teams have won more games than the Raptors.
The Spurs in first place are 13-2, the Lakers in second place are 13-3, the Hornets in third place are quite crazy at the beginning of the season with 12 wins and 3 losses, the Jazz in fourth place are 12-5, the Mavericks in fifth place are 12-4, the Thunder in sixth place are 11-5, the Nuggets in seventh place are 9-6, and the Trail Blazers in eighth place are 8-7, including one win over the Raptors.
The ninth place is the Suns, with a winning rate of 50%, 8 wins and 8 losses, the tenth place is the Warriors 8 wins and 9 losses, the eleventh place is the Grizzlies, 7 wins and 10 losses, and the twelfth place is the Rockets, which Chinese fans are quite concerned about, 4 wins and 11 losses, and the results are quite miserable!
Below the Rockets is the Kings, also 4-11, the fourteenth is the Timberwolves 3-13, and the Timberwolves' new wolf king Kevin Love has been quite eye-catching recently! In the end, the bottom of the West and the bottom of the league is the Clippers, with 3 wins and 14 losses.
Although their champion last year, super rookie Griffin, averaged plus rebounds per game, beating this year's champion John Wall, the Clippers as a whole are very poor, and they are not as good as the Wizards.
But no matter how well these rookies mix, they will be pressed by Jiang Yang! Who called Jiang Yang so hot now.
Counting the two regular season games in October, Jiang Yang's performance in a total of 17 games is as follows, averaging 11 rebounds, 3.8 blocks and 2.8 steals per game.
Jiang Yang ranked first with an absolute advantage in scoring, beating Kevin Durant's Derrick Rose's Deco Nowitzki's Kobe Bryant and Anthony's next to Monta Ellis, Eric Gordon, Westbrook, and then it was James' and Martin's turn...... It can be said that in terms of scoring, Jiang Yang won completely.
In the number of rebounds, Jiang Yang ranks eighth, the first is the new Wolf King, Kevin Love, the second is Joakim Noah of the Bulls, the third is a little surprising, it is the Raptors' defensive gate, Reggie Evans, the fourth is the Lakers' Gasol, the fifth is Howard of the Magic, the sixth is Griffin of the Clippers, the seventh is Randolph of the Grizzlies, and the eighth is Jiang Yang.
Jiang Yang was originally the first in the assist list, but who called Rondo suddenly turned out, Rondo's assists have been brushed too much in the last few games, and Jiang Yang has 6 assists and 8 assists a game, which can be regarded as ruining his idea of being the king of assists, and he was directly pulled down.
The first was replaced by Rondo's average assists per game, Jiang Yang ranked second with 11 assists per game, the third was Paul of the Hornets, the fourth was Deron of the Jazz, the fifth was Nash of the Suns, the sixth was Kidd of the Mavericks, and the seventh was Rookie Wall.
On the blocking list, Jiang Yang won the championship again with an absolute advantage, averaging 3.8 blocks per game, the second is Darko Milicic, the big bug that the Timberwolves used to call victory cigars, the third is McGee of the Wizards, the fourth is Bogut of the Bucks, the fifth is Josh Smith, and the sixth is Howard of the Magic team.
And in the final steals list, Jiang Yang is still the steal king, averaging 3.1 steals per game, just a small point on Paul's head of 3 steals per game, the third is rookie Wall, averaging 2.8 steals per game, the fourth is Monta Ellis with 2.6 steals per game, the fifth is Rondo, averaging 2.5 steals per game, and the sixth is Conley of the Grizzlies, averaging 2.4 steals per game.
Now Jiang Yang's achievements, I dare not say that there is no one to come, but it is unprecedented, the average points per game, the eighth average rebounds per game, the second average assists per game, the first average block per game, and the first steals per game, such results have made Jiang Yang's reputation in the league skyrocketing, and countless fans and teams are staring at Jiang Yang, Jiang Yang ranks first on the latest jersey sales list announced by the league.
This is also the first time that a sophomore rookie has defeated the league's veterans like James and Kobe.
Although there are a lot of nostalgic people, the current Jiang Yang is indeed unstoppable, and the domestic news, because Jiang Yang's achievements are there, coupled with the recent 'scandal' about Jiang Yang, the amount of information in Jiang Yang is constantly refreshing, which brings some trouble to Jiang Yang, and also makes Jiang Yang's fan base expand rapidly in China!
Taking advantage of Yao Ming's inability to play, Jiang Yang quickly seized the honor of China's No. 1 player and even Asia's No. 1 player.
And recently there have been rumors in the league that Jiang Yang is likely to become the best player in the East in October and November.
In fact, everyone basically guessed this honor, after all, Jiang Yang's current results, plus the Raptors won the first place in the East, and he didn't get the best of the month, it would be a bit too fake! It can be said that the eastern side of the river and the ocean is an internal order.
And in the west, it's up to others to guess! It can be said that this year's Jiang Yang is really unstoppable!
However, although Jiang Yang here is unusually strong, the Raptors team is not particularly peaceful.
This is mainly because the current Raptors team does not have a star who can help Jiang Yang, because of this reason, the whole team is very anxious, and the team executives are asking Green Grandward about the team's establishment plan almost every day, since Jiang Yang has given them what they want, then they have to give Jiang Yang an explanation.
In such a situation, Green Grandward, who is sandwiched in the middle, can be said to be unflattering everywhere, of course, this also has something to do with his grinding style, if he doesn't force him, he may not be able to find a suitable player for Jiang Yang.
But business! It's not a business to catch up, the team is so anxious to urge, he Green Granward wants to get some weighty All-Star level players for a while, it's not so easy, everyone knows that he is in a hurry, so they all want to dig out some material on him, two days have passed in a blink of an eye, Jiang Yang They started the first game in December, the home game against the Wizards, this game, the Raptors played a relatively light gun, Jiang Yang blocked Arenas's layup at the beginning, DeRozan forced the inside to score, Although the Wizards fired on all fronts, they played a full 8-2 start, but then Jiang Yang's side began to make a move! One person scored six points in a row to help the Raptors directly chase the score to a 13-13 draw! Blatch played 2+1 twice in a row, the Raptors who fought at home, also under the leadership of Jiang Yang and Marc Gasol on the inside, played a wave of 12-2 offense, destroying the Wizards' defense, the Wizards gradually couldn't resist the Raptors' offensive, after Barbossa hit the whistle, the Raptors led the Wizards by 9 points in a single quarter 34-25 and entered the second quarter of the game, the Raptors in the second quarter, the offense was still unabated, Barbossa continued to impact the Wizards' defense with speed, Banyani unstoppable scored nine points in a row, on the other hand, the shooting percentage of the Wizards continued to decline, and the Raptors at home completed a wave of 13-4 offense, leading the opponent by a full 18 points at 47-29! The teammates played well, Jiang Yang also had plenty of rest, and Jiang Yang didn't play until there were 3 minutes and 27 seconds left in the second quarter, and the offense of Qixiaoren was firmly suppressed by the Raptors, and the shooting percentage of the whole team was declining! McGee scored five points in a row for the Wizards who fell behind by a big score, it was just a drop in the bucket, and the Raptors' Jiang Yang scored six points in a row after playing, stretching the difference directly to 21 points, the Wizards were beaten without fighting back, at the end of the first half, the Raptors led the opponent by a full 20 points at 72-52, with Jiang Yang's existence, which also announced that the entire second half was garbage time! Sure enough, just like the media and fans thought, although the second half of the broadcast began, the Wizards took the lead in attacking, Hinrich hit a jump shot first, and then Bracch forced a foul inside, under the leadership of Jiang Yang and Baniani, the Raptors directly played a wave of 11-4 offense, once again pulled the score away, but it was getting bigger and bigger.
The Wizards' offense is difficult to score, and the defensive end can't stop the Raptors, after Wall played, Wall was beaten by Jiang Yang in the first half when he was facing Jiang Yang, and in the second half of the third quarter, he also played hard to score points while Jiang Yang was away.
first assisted Hinrich on a jumper, and then scored five points in a row, the Wizards' offense just improved, and in the third quarter of the game, with the Wizards' offense at the last moment, the two sides were tied at 29-29, and the Raptors still led the opponent by 20 points at 101-81!
This made Jiang Yang almost no need to play in the last quarter, the Raptors' benches played on the court in the final quarter of the game, Jiang Yang's substitute Bayless and Sonny Weems teamed up to impact the Wizards' defense, after the 11-5 attack wave ended, the Raptors had already led the opponent by as many as 26 points in the score of 112-86, the two sides withdrew the main lineup early, the game entered a long garbage time, and the Wizards let Wall stay on the court to continue to hone, Their goal in this game also changed from winning to closing the gap as much as possible, and in the end, the Raptors defeated the Wizards 127-108 at home.
Jiang Yang only played 24 minutes in this game, which is quite rare! In these 24 minutes, Jiang Yang only scored a total of 18 points, after scoring 6 points in the first quarter, there was a mid-range shot, which scored 8 points, six points in the second quarter, and 4 points in the third quarter, what was Jiang Yang doing the rest of the time? Brush assists! Lost to Rondo on the overall list, Jiang Yang is not reconciled! After all, he is a young player, and Jiang Yang is still quite persistent in statistics! In the end, Jiang Yang had 18 points, 9 rebounds, 17 assists, 3 blocks, and 3 steals, which made Arenas and John Wall on the opposite side upset!
In addition to Jiang Yang, the Raptors also had 7 players score double-doubles, and the Raptors' highest scorer today was DeRozan.
This guy is usually not lightly talked about by Jiang Yang, and today he is also ashamed and brave, basically all the balls are hitting the basket, shooting 7 of 11 from the field, and also hit a three-pointer, a total of 20 points, while his partner Sonny Weems scored 16 points, Marc Gasol got 11 points plus 13 rebounds, Andrea Banyani got 18 points and 8 rebounds, Leandro Barbosa off the bench scored 16 points, and Jiang Yang's bench Jerry Bayless scored 14 points, He had plenty of playing time to perform today, and this year's rookie, Ed Davis, a backup power forward who had just returned from injury, also scored a rare 11 points, which is not bad! These people have a score of 122, which is enough to destroy the Wizards.
And the Wizards also had four players score double-doubles today, center Javier Mickey scored 21 points, former Bulls 'captain' Kirk Hinrich, who transferred from the Bulls, scored 15 points, Andre Blatch scored 17 points, Gilbert Arenas mainly faced Jiang Yang today, he played 29 minutes, 10 shots in the game, only hit once, and the remaining 9 times all hit iron, which shows how tight Jiang Yang's defense is, and he only scored 7 points in the whole game.
The champion, John Wall, under Jiang Yang's defense, has a shooting rate of less than fifty percent, but after all, Jiang Yang has only played for more than 20 minutes, so he has more time to brush up without Jiang Yang, and he scored a total of 19 points in the whole game.
After this game, the Raptors' senior management gave Green Grandward half of the time, because their requirement was to find a suitable helper for Jiang Yang within a week. In this case, another two days passed.
Originally, everyone thought that the Raptors would face the Thunder, and it would naturally be an offensive battle between Jiang Yang and Durant.
After all, now there are two of them, one is the first in the scoring list, and the other is the second in the scoring list, especially this second seems to be not easy to move Jiang Yang's position, even if Jiang Yang only scored 18 points in the last game, Jiang Yang is still the first in the scoring list.
But it's a pity today, Durant is injured! Then it became Jiang Yang's one-man show, Jiang Yang had plenty of rest time in the last game, so in this game, Jiang Yang pounced on the Thunder team like a vicious wolf at the beginning!
The two sides started to attack each other in the first quarter, and the Raptors took advantage of the home court advantage to lead all the way! Although the Thunder made a 4-0 start at the beginning, but then under the leadership of Jiang Yang, the Raptors responded with a wave of 12-2 offense and directly took the initiative with 12-6. Until Jiang Yang went off the court, they couldn't chase the score back, and it wasn't until after the bench players came on the court that James Harden scored four points with free throws, and the Thunder ended the first quarter with only three points behind the Raptors at 25-28.
At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, the Thunder began to fight back wildly, Harden was in a state of succession, scoring continuously, and the Raptors' Kezia and Barbossa were not far behind, the score rose alternately, and after Harden hit a three-point shot, the Thunder tied the score!
The Raptors had to ask for a timeout and changed Jiang Yang to the court, and after Jiang Yang came on the court, he immediately assisted Barbossa to hit a three-point shot, and then he hit another three-point shot, and then the game on both sides entered the tug-of-war time again, and the Thunder's interior line was too weak.
Jiang Yang hit their interior line, there was no problem at all, with Jiang Yang hitting a two-point shot at the whistle, the Raptors led the opponent by 2 points at 61-59 in the first half and entered the second half of the game.
Sony Weems scored six points in a row, DeRozan, and Amir Johnson who came off the bench also added icing on the cake, the Raptors played a wave of 9-0, and the score difference was stretched to more than ten points in one fell swoop, Harden led the Thunder to make the final resistance, but Jiang Yang hit consecutive shots and killed the momentum of the opponent's counterattack in time, and after the first three quarters, the Raptors led the opponent by as many as 18 points at 95-77.
The last quarter was as I thought, the waves were not shocked, the Raptors led 25-22 in a single quarter, and had the last laugh, Jiang Yang brushed 4 assists in the third quarter and then went off the court, helping Barbossa to cover the first seven points of the team's quarter, the home team expanded the advantage to 20 points, and then replaced the main force, Westbrook scored four points in a row, but it didn't help, and finally the Raptors won 120-99, with a 21-point advantage, easily defeated the opponent and welcomed two consecutive wins! Westbrook originally wanted to carry Jiang Yang on his own, but in the end, he was the worst! In this game, the Raptors scored double-doubles for all six players, and Jiang Yang scored a high 33 points and 33 points, plus 11 rebounds, 16 assists, 4 blocks, and 4 steals! ~!
