November is over in the blink of an eye, and the situation is pretty much clearer for teams across the league.

There are disappointing teams, there are surprises. There are teams that have been underrated, and there are teams that have been overrated.

This is the status quo of the league every season, after all, the strength of the book does not equal the real level that can be played in the season, which requires chemistry.

The most obvious manifestation is the Orlando Magic, in the new season ESPN's prediction, the strength of the Magic team is ranked second only to the Spurs, but the new season Magic's table is too disappointing.

Although O'Neal and Maddy's individual performances are good, the team's record is not particularly good. Actually, it's a matter of chemistry between the two stars, and it's clear that they haven't adapted to each other's characteristics yet.

The Magic are overrated, while the Wizards, who are also in the East, continue to be strong, and after the November game, the team led by three young men has become the league's favorites.

It's fair to say that even the Spurs aren't as strong as the Wizards, which makes people marvel at the energy displayed by the Wizards.

In November, the Wizards played a total of 11 games and they lost only nine, which means that in the first month of the new season, the Wizards had a 10-1 record.

In 11 games, the Wizards averaged 110.7 points per game, which ranked first in the league, which shows that the current Wizards' offensive firepower is really amazing.

The reason why the Wizards can have such strong offensive firepower is that they have backcourt like Wu Di and Arenas, and second, the scoring ability shown by the bench bandits led by Crawford on the bench.

Wu Di and Arenas naturally don't need to say much. The two are backcourt partners with an average of 50+ abilities per game.

And it's Crawford. as a substitute. Crawford averaged 17.8 points per game throughout November, making him a strong contender for Sixth Man of the Season.

In addition to Crawford, Mike Dunleavy has improved a lot, and now in his third year in the NBA, Mike Dunleavy has finally found his own feeling, and in November, Dunleavy was able to contribute 10.2 points off the bench, which also made him gradually become the second substitute player after Crawford.

There are two players on the bench who can average more than 10 points per game, which is what is surprising.

To know. Measuring the strength of a team often depends on the bench lineup, and now, the Wizards' lineup can be said to be the best in the league, coupled with the starters led by Wu Di, it seems that the Wizards are really champion-level in terms of overall strength.

It doesn't really matter, though. The important thing is that the chemistry of the Wizards has been so good that in the first 11 games, the Wizards averaged less than 10 turnovers per game, which is the best of any of the league's 30 teams.

Under these circumstances, it doesn't seem so surprising that the Wizards have achieved such a record.

And as the absolute leader of the Wizards. Wu Di is naturally the focus of attention in the whole league and a player who is hotly discussed by fans all over the world.

11 games in November. Wu Di scored a total of 358 points, averaging 32.5 points per game, and in addition to that, he was able to contribute 3.4 steals and 1.7 blocks per game, which shows that his individual defense is also improving rapidly.

With a good offensive and defensive performance, coupled with the team's excellent record, Wu Di is naturally the only candidate for the Eastern Conference Player of the Month.

After the game in November, the NBA officially announced that Wu Di and Kobe Bryant won the honor of the best player of the month in November in the 04~05 season.

Obviously, too many people feel that Wu Di and Kobe Bryant will enter the opposite side of competition this season, and that situation will be more similar to the competition between Wu Di and Maddie last year, or rather, more violent.

Kobe Bryant's inaugural Player of the Month award was mainly due to his personal record, which was played by the Lakers in 14 games throughout the month of November, but with a record of only 7 wins and 7 losses. Therefore, if you only look at the record, it is difficult for Kobe Bryant to get the best player.

But on the personal table, the entire west, or Wu Di, is not as outstanding as Kobe.

In the first month, in 14 games, Bryant scored 488 points, and finally ranked first in the scoring list with an average of 34.9 per game. In 14 games, Bryant scored 40+ points in six games, including 57 points in one game, which is only 1 point away from his career scoring record.

There is no doubt that Kobe Bryant will definitely break his scoring record in the new season, after all, he is playing a leaping season.

In fact, scoring alone is far from being able to measure Kobe's excellence, in 14 games, Kobe Bryant was also able to contribute 6.3 boards, 4.5 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.8 blocks, which is completely a perfect guard.

It can be said that without Kobe, the Lakers may be hard to win, so there is no dispute that Kobe Bryant won the best player of the first month.

In this case, everyone is also aware of a problem, that is, the current league is still dominated by guards, and scoring guards are still the mainstream of the NBA.

At this point, Jordan's retirement did not take it away. With Maddy, Kobe, Wu Di, and Iverson, Carter and others who are slowly becoming a little peaceful, the league's scoring guards are obviously still the mainstream.

In particular, the scene of the shooting guard battle for two consecutive seasons seems to confirm this mainstream theory.

Obviously, these guys are still vying for the position of Jordan's successor, and this will continue until one person plays dominant.

The scene of the first month's scoring list is also exciting, 15 of the top 20 are outside, and all of them are over 20+. Surprisingly, more than half of these outside players are shooting guards.

Of course, there are some players who were not shooting guards in the first two years, but in the last two years, they have been affected by trends and finally changed positions.

This can also make people see that Wu Di, Maddy, Kobe Bryant and others are leading a trend, and this trend will be the heyday of scoring guards.

After the end of the first month's game, the first phase of the MVP rankings also appeared, Wu Di ranked first as he wished, while Duncan ranked second, and Kobe Bryant ranked third.

In this case, Chinese fans are arguably the most excited. Because in their opinion, Wu Di finally has hope of winning an MVP.

In fact, as long as Wu Di's performance is good this season, with the Wizards' record, it is only a matter of time before he wins the MVP. After all, last season, Wu Di should have won the MVP, but in the end, the league awarded this honor to Garnett, which is also highly controversial.

And now, Wu Di sat on the first place on the MVP list in the first month, which can be said to be expected.

In the words of Barkley and Reggie Miller, Wu Di should win the MVP, and in the current league, whether in terms of record or personal performance, there is really no one who can threaten this award.

Therefore, under this situation and statement, the world's focus is on Wu Di, after all, he is the one who wants to win the MVP.

In their first game of December, the Wizards hosted the Nets, who are second in the East, in what was expected to be a scorching game, but the result was still a surprise.

In the whole game, Wu Di scored 49 points to help the Wizards easily defeat the Nets, and the final score was 123:96, which seems a little unimaginable.

It is worth mentioning that in this match, Arenas played a triple-double, which made him quite important in the conversation with Kidd.

After this game, everyone really realized how terrible the Wizards were, a team that is very strong and has excellent chemistry.

Subsequently, the Wizards defeated the Hawks, Bulls and other teams in a row, and their record also soared.

During this period, the game between the Wizards and the Nuggets came as a surprise.

Because in the home game against the new Nuggets, the Wizards actually lost the game, which is an unexpected situation.

The Nuggets' main lineup this season is made up of players such as Devin Wade, Tony Allen, Dwight Howard and Turkoglou, and such a lineup is either average or young.

You must know that Howard is the top pick in '04, and Tony Allen is a first-round rookie, this Devin Wade is only a sophomore, and Tekoglu, before becoming the Nuggets starter, was just an average player.

But it was such a team that defeated the Wizards for the first time. It is worth mentioning that Devin Wade recorded a big double-double of 30 points and 10 assists, while Howard, the top pick, got 18 points and 17 rebounds, and did not fall behind in the confrontation with Brown.

Although Howard's technique is a little rough, his athleticism has made him suitable for the new era of basketball.

The loss to the Nuggets was the Wizards' first home defeat of the season, and Wu Di also warned his teammates not to take any opponent lightly.

Such a loss really gave the Wizards a precautionary shot, and in the subsequent games, everyone from the head coach to the players began to take every game very seriously.

And under this attitude, there are naturally only a handful of teams that can beat the Wizards.

Soon, the December game was over, and Wu Di, who had experienced a 50-point luxury performance in the Christmas game, became completely popular, and he became the best player of the new generation in the league, and has been firmly occupying the top position of the MVP list.

At the end of the December game, the Wizards finished with a 24-4 record and finished first in the East.

And this month's best players are Wu Di and Duncan...... The Spurs achieved a single-month winning streak this month, and Duncan, who was excellent at the table, managed to suppress Kobe Bryant to become the best player of the month.

After Wu Di won the best player for two consecutive months, ESPN also began to build momentum for him, saying that this season's MVP should not be able to run.

In an interview, the former "Wu Dihei" Buckley also said:

"If there are no accidents, Wu Di will get the first MVP of his career." (To be continued......)
