Chapter 39: A road trip without Jordan

It's a pity that the Wizards' good situation didn't last long, and in the back-to-back games on March 8, they lost to the miracle Orlando Magic!

The Magic team in this game is significantly different from the previous game, the Magic team completely handed over the ball to Maddy in this game, and Maddy won the game by himself in the face of the Wizards' multiple double-doubles......

At the end of the game, Maddy told the Wizards with a 62 percent shooting rate that there were superstars besides Jordan, and Maddy scored 50 points and 10 rebounds in this game.

Although the final result of the game, the Wizards only lost by three points, but Gong Feng looked at Maddie like this, and he was really a little envious, especially the cheers of the Magic team's home court were so deafening now, but when he looked at Maddie who was pulling out the jumper, Gong Feng's eyes had some strange changes......

Although Kwame scored a standard double-double of 20 points and 10 rebounds in this game, he was very annoyed to watch the super guard who scored more than 10 points on his head, and returned to the lounge after the game, and soon heard the sound of thunderclaps inside.

After the game, Gong Feng didn't pay attention to someone who was in a bad mood at this time, but exchanged the jersey of the game with Maddie at this time, Gong Feng took the initiative to leave the other party's phone, and treated Maddie with the attitude of a high school student.

This is a very meaningful game for Gong Feng and Kwamei, if it weren't for the beginning stage, Kwamei was troubled by fouls, Maddie would never have scored those points in this game, for Gong Feng is the first time to see how the super scorer of the league scores, and it has an irreplaceable role in the expansion of his own realm and the maturity of his skills.

On the 10th, the Celtics, who took advantage of the fire, gave the Wizards two consecutive defeats, and the duo combined to score 58 points to win the game. In this game, Wang Zhizhi also exposed a lot of his weaknesses and made Antoine Walker completely explosive, but Collins looked at Wang Zhizhi who was struggling on the court and didn't want to change at all, and Leitner, who was resting off the court, didn't want to play anxiously.

Gong Feng saw this and understood what the coach meant, and fed Wang Zhizhi a lot of good balls in this game, but Wang Zhizhi, who was a little sluggish in this game, did not grasp the opportunity well, which made Collins and others a little disappointed.

However, looking at Wang Zhizhi's worth, Collins smiled again, this is already very good, of course, there is another person's performance that Collins expected, that is, Gerard Wallace, the defensive backbone who was also blown out by Pierce in this game, reflects a rare iron blood, the more frustrated and braver, this makes Collins nod with satisfaction.

Although Gong Feng still scored 45 points with Kwamei, he still couldn't resist the offensive wave of the whole Celtics team in the end!

But soon the Wizards got a chance to get revenge, in the next day's back-to-back games, on the Wizards' home court, the Wizards faced the Celtics, at this time Collins was extremely grateful for such an arrangement, because the first game of the Celtics double star was tiring enough, and the second game was different for the two teams.

Wang Zhizhi and Gerrard were rested, the veterans came out, Nesby, Jones had good performances, and Leitner also began to talk to Walker, in other words, in this game, it was to bully the Celtics' lack of physical strength, and the gap between the starters and the bench was too big.

Although Pierce still desperately scored 37 points in the face of the Wizards' defense, Hamilton on the Wizards' side completely replaced Jordan's role.

Hamilton scored 31 points, 4 assists and 6 rebounds with a 50 percent shooting rate, and Gong Feng and Kwame were not far behind, the two still maintained their double-double data, and Gong Feng's assists rose to 15 times, in Collins' view, this is a direct connection with Hamilton, and even in other words, Hamilton and Kwame and Gong Feng have the most tacit chemistry.

The Wizards, who ended their two-game losing streak, had no time to rest and flew directly to Los Angeles, but instead of challenging a third-place overlord in the West, but the Clippers in the same city, it was the most important moment to compete for a playoff spot, and against a team like the Clippers, the Wizards must go all out, even if they are very tired.

Although the Clippers also worked hard in this game, the two interior cores played more than 43 minutes, but Hamilton continued the shooting rate of the last game, and Kwame played a big forward in this game, playing the role of the Wizards' goalkeeper, and Haywood also had a good performance of 5 points and 10 rebounds in the start.

Watching the Wizards tie with the Clippers on the court with two rookie centers, the head coach of the Clippers sitting on the sidelines, Gentry, was in a daze, so that a certain owner who has always taken miserliness as his motto threw away the cup in his hand angrily.

On the 15th, the Wizards came to the home court of the SuperSonics again, although the game seemed very anxious at the beginning, but when Tyrone Lue came off the bench, the SuperSonics team did not lead, although the Wizards let the two outside of the SuperSonics work together to cut 60 points, but the substitute Tyrone Lue also scored 26 points, and the superSonics on the inside line were blown up by the Wizards' Kwame, who scored all the points in this game, and actually cut down a super double-double of 30 points and 20 rebounds.

In this game, Kwame, who was happy with the Trail Blazers, languished in the back-to-back games with the Trail Blazers on the 16th, and was blown up by the Trailblazers' interior in the first half, and the tonnage and speed of Rasheed Wallace and past superstar Sean Camp educated Kwame, what is the strength of experience and tonnage, and was opened up to a gap of more than 15 points in the first half.

The Wizards, who changed their strategy in the second half, decided not to play positional battles with you.

According to Kwame's happy words, "Run with me, uncles!" ”

Although in the second half of the game, Kwame was very happy to score 15 points and 10 rebounds, but the Trail Blazers did not follow the rhythm of the Wizards, and the Trail Blazers are now an orthodox half-court team.

Pippen, Kemp, are all players who can't run because of their bodies and age, and besides, they can grind you to death in the half, so why do you still run?

Although Gong Feng used a very strong sense of rhythm in this game, and the counterattack was also impressive, but in the face of a group of old and cunning guys, it didn't have much effect, and Camp didn't run back then?

In the end, relying on a 15-point lead in the first half, the Trail Blazers still won the game.

On the 18th, the fourth game of the Western Conference, the Wizards came to Oracle's home court to challenge the Warriors. Although the current Warriors have shown some signs of rising, relying on the full play of the Wizards' veterans, there is still no thrilling victory in winning the game.

If a time-traveler sees the current lineup of the Warriors, he will know that any rise is a lie, not to mention that the current Warriors have no key training objects, that is, the main force of the current team, there is no way to stay in the future, the future Mavericks' main centers Dampier and Jamison are all leaving the team in the next two or three years, how can such a team enter the playoffs? How can it rise again? The current owner of the Warriors, Collingham, is a man of great ambivalence.

Of course, the boss is the last word!

Then the Wizards defeated the Denver Nuggets who were defeated by illness on the road, and then were swept by the senior team Jazz this season back-to-back, although the performance of Gong Feng and Kwamei has always been normal, and they also want revenge, but they just came down from the plateau, and then appeared on the Jazz's terrifying home court, the whole team is very uncomfortable, and there is no way to rely on Gong Feng and Kwame alone.

Gong Feng and Kwamei are both tactical players now, although the two of them can score more than 40 points together, but neither of them is a real scorer.

What's more, this game against the Jazz is already the sixth away challenge, which is a very big challenge for the Wizards, and at this moment, everyone knows the news that sounds very unfortunate, Jordan's rotation has become an indefinite rest.
