Among the "four small forwards", James currently has a good record with the Cavaliers, and he is still young and has a long time, and he will not have the idea of transferring in the near future. Anthony, www.biquge.info Pen & Fun & Pavilion, just came to help Iverson, and he won't leave. Hill is already old, like Webb, he has no desires and no desires, what is the first, he has nothing to do with half a dime, and the rest of the time is just pension.

However, Pierce, like Iverson and Garnett, has individual ability, but the team's record is extremely poor, and there is no hope of winning the championship. And he is not too old or too young to retire with peace of mind, but he definitely can't afford to wait.

Among the "four scoring guards", Kobe Bryant will definitely not go, he just squeezed out his big brother O'Neal, and he has become the absolute boss of the Lakers, of course, it is impossible to leave. And Maddie, with Yao Ming by his side, he won't leave. Carter, with Kidd and Jefferson by his side, is strong enough to help. Iverson has arrived at the Nuggets.

Among the "Big Four point guards", Nash's Suns record is good, Kidd's Nets record is good, Paul has just entered the league for a year, and the Hornets are also very strong, and similarly, Arenas's Wizards are very similar to the Hornets. They all have good records or very good momentum, so they won't move to other teams anytime soon.

When Zhang Chu saw this special issue of "Sports Illustrated", he really doubted whether the author of this article had crossed over, and his prediction was too accurate, and he accurately guessed that Garnett was leaving, and he was merged with Pierce.

On December 25, 2006, the holiday season in the West ---- Christmas, and the NBA's much-anticipated Christmas game kicked off as scheduled, with the Rockets flying to Miami to challenge the Heat. Although Houston fans protested and the Rockets also appealed to the league officials, the protests were ineffective, and the league officials still maintained the original penalty decision, and the rules were not to be paid. Of course, Zhang Chu's fine of 25,000 US dollars, the Rocket Club announced that the club would pay it on behalf of the club as soon as possible, and Zhang Chu would not be allowed to pay a penny.

Although the Rocket team lacks Zhang Chu, this Yao shark showdown is still full of highlights. In the center position, the two major centers are fighting against each other, and in the backcourt, Maddy and Wade, the two big scoring guards, are also superstars, and they collide with each other.

It may be that Yao Ming's state is really good this season, or it may be that the Hornets in the last game, especially Mason's provocation made Yao Ming hold back a breath of energy, and in the end, Yao Ming broke out in this game, got 36 points, 15 rebounds, and 5 assists of the super double-double, led the Rockets to win the Christmas battle 115:110, and was elected the best player of the game.

O'Neal actually played well in this game, scoring 28 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 assists, but whether it is data or wins or losses, Yao Ming is the winner of this Yao Shark showdown, and he also adds a thick weight to his fight for the title of the league's No. 1 center.

Soon after Christmas, the New Year 2007 was approaching, and on the first day of 2007, the league officially announced the Player of the Month, Rookie of the Month of the Month for December 2006, as well as the latest MVP and Rookie rankings.

In December, the best of the month in the East was still given to the Cavaliers' "little emperor" James, looking at the entire East, James has a trace of riding the top and seeking defeat alone, and the best of the month with James in the East is nothing more than Wade, Bosh, Howard and a few others. Throughout December, James led the Cavaliers to a 10-5 record in 15 games, averaging 30.1 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game. The team still ranks second in the East, with the Pistons at the top of the list.

The best of the month in the West in December was also given to the Mavericks' Nowitzki, and the competition for the best in the West was much more intense, with no less than 10 people having the strength to fight for the best of the month, like Kobe, Duncan, Garnett, Yao Ming...... But this season's Mavericks are learning from the pain, in the 2:0 good situation last season, lost the championship, this year's regular season is ruthless, the entire December 14 games, only lost one, 13-1!

Nowitzki, who is the core of the team, has 28.1 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists.

And the Rookie of the Month, the East went to Bacgnai of the Raptors, and the West went to Guy of the Grizzlies.

In the MVP rankings, James ranks first, Nowitzki is second, Nash is third, Duncan is fourth, and Iverson is fifth.

It is worth mentioning that on the rookie list, Zhang Chu, who just entered the list last month and ranked tenth, entered the top five this month.

In December, with the increase in Zhang Chu's playing time, the data also improved further. In December 2006, Zhang Chu played an average of 15 minutes per game, averaging 9.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.4 blocks per game. Being a substitute, especially as a rookie who is only 19 years old and has only played in the NBA for two months, is very rare.

Due to the seven-game ban, Zhang Chu couldn't play the game during this time, but he was not idle, and began to learn some defensive skills from the defensive master Battier, especially defensive awareness and defensive experience, Battier is at the top level in the league.

Originally, Zhang Chu, as a swing forward, still had a certain competitive relationship with Battier, but due to the last brawl, not only did fans regard Zhang Chu as a city hero, but even the favorability of the players with the team towards Zhang Chu also skyrocketed. Who doesn't want to have a tough teammate around who can escort the team when it matters most. A team needs to be able to score, it needs to be able to defend, and at the same time, it needs a dare to play.

Therefore, Zhang Chu's status in the team has also been greatly improved, and there was originally a certain competitive interest relationship with Battier, and it was impossible for Battier to pass on his housekeeping skills, but now it is different. Even the elderly Uncle Mu, when he was training, watched Battier teach Zhang Chu, and he also taught Zhang Chu his unique skills of grabbing rebounds and blocks on a whim.

Of course, Zhang Chu can't ask for it, you know, don't look at Uncle Mu now that he is old and can't run, back then, in the 90s, Uncle Mu was also a man of the hour, second only to the existence of the four centers, if it weren't for the poor offensive ability, he might not be able to enter the four centers of the year. But Uncle Mu's defensive level has absolutely nothing to say, especially after blocking, the action of shaking his fingers has become a signature action.

With the rumors and teachings of two top defensive players, Zhang Chu's defensive level, especially defensive awareness, experience and skills, began to rise in an uproar.

In January 2007, Zhang Chu's ban passed quickly, and then he threw himself into the game again. At the same time, from this time on, Zhang Chu's playing time has been greatly improved. If you think about it, the Raptors exchanged the champion for Zhang Chu, and the Rockets were unwilling, so Zhang Chu's current status in the Rocket Club's mind is no less than a champion, can you still use him as a water cooler administrator?

Therefore, throughout January, although Zhang Chu is not a starter, the average time per game has increased to 25 minutes, almost twice as much as before. The increase in playing time has always led to an increase in averages per game, and throughout the month of January, he averaged 14.5 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 2 steals and 2.1 blocks per game.

With his outstanding performance in January, Zhang Chu was elected as the best rookie of the month in the west for the first time in his life.
