Offense, offense doesn't work.

Defense, defense is not good.

If the Wizards continue to play like this in the new season, Wang Shuo feels that Rivers is simply sent by God to assist him and help him improve his historical status.

It turns out that at NbA, the head coach is so important.

At present, the Wizards, due to the fact that Wang Shuo and Jordan left one by one and retired one in the summer, and most of the players on the team have won two championships, so they are obviously inferior to other teams in terms of hunger for championships.

Yes, there are people on this Wizards team who want to win three consecutive championships.

But the question is, do you Rivers have what it takes to bring them together and make them work towards a common goal?

The answer is clearly no.

Because compared to Boss Qiao, there is not only practical interests, but also can greatly encourage the players' soul chicken soup......

Is Chicken Soup for the Soul a Der in Your Rivers?

Well, it's okay if Rivers' Chicken Soup for the Soul Wizards players don't buy it.

After all, the Wizards are the best team to defend NbA in the past two seasons.

Even if Atay is gone in the summer and Jefferson is traded shortly after the start of the new season, the team still has defensive giants like Jackson and Wallace.

plus Gasol and Arenas, an inside and outside partner who has cultivated a certain tacit understanding.

Even if the Wizards can't do the previous "full offense and defense", Rivers has built it well, and the "offensive and defensive balance" Wizards can still do it.

But the question arises again, does he Rivers have this ability?

Historically, the head coach of the Green Army who managed to console Auerbach with a championship was indeed Rivers.

But was the Green Army's offensive and defensive system built by him Rivers?

To tell the truth, not to mention that it has nothing to do with him Rivers, at least, the Green Army in Wang Shuo's memory can win the championship, and Tom Thibodeau, Kevin Eastman and others are the real behind-the-scenes heroes.

The former, also a coach known for his defense.

Perhaps, when he was a manager, Thibodeau had a lot of points.

But when he was an assistant coach, he was a top-tier defensive assistant coach.

As for the latter, Eastman, who was the head of basketball skill development at Nike, is not only good at player development, but also a top assistant coach with 22 years of coaching experience in college basketball.

In Wang Shuo's memory, in the future, after leaving the think tank of the Green Army, Rivers will use his coaching career to prove that no matter how strong the team is on paper, he dares to be reversed and turned over to show you!

Trivia.

In the original historical line, in the 02/03 season, the head coach of the Magic who led the Pistons by a big score of 3-1 and was finally beaten by the Pistons three times in a row was Doug Rivers!

So, do you think Rivers is only going to be reversed in the future?

This buddy has a criminal record!

No matter how sensational Rivers' speech is or how sweet his chicken soup is, basketball is a sport that speaks with strength after all.

The head coach's own tactical theory level, on-the-spot adaptability, and grasp of the overall situation of the team are also part of the team's strength.

Even Larry Brown, who has been beaten to disrepute by Wang Shuo in this life, Wang Shuo will not deny his defensive attainments.

On the court, under the Suns' wave after wave of offense, Rivers, who didn't know how to deal with it, had to use the methods used by his predecessors on the court.

For example, fouls are used to stop the Suns' fast break, such as using joint defense to limit Iverson's breakthrough.

Then the first quarter ended, and the scoreboard was 24-38.

On the court, if it weren't for Gasol and Arenas struggling to support, then Wang Shuo really couldn't imagine what this Wizards would be like on this night.

In the second quarter of the game, because Rivers put Crawford into the starting position tonight, he also lost a chance to draw cards.

This season, compared to other top teams in the league, the Suns' second team is by no means strong.

In Wang Shuo's view, the Wizards only need to stagger the playing time of the starters a little in the first quarter of the game, and in the second lineup, use the starters mixed with Crawford to lead the team, and the Suns' second lineup can't compete with the Wizards at all.

But as a head coach who is very good at killing the main team, Rivers' choice is:

Dead Gasol and Arenas.

In the first half of the second quarter, the inside and outside combination did recover a lot of points for the Wizards.

But in the second half of the second quarter, after the Suns' main players returned recharged, the scores that Gasol and Arenas chased back in the first half of the quarter were quickly beaten back by the Suns.

And, after Rivers' "wonderful moves" that are comparable to the Warhawk's chess......

The Wizards' main players will obviously be more physically advanced than the Suns' main players tonight.

Sure enough.

After the intermission, "Ai San is crazy" he Lei!

In the first half of the game, Iverson, who only scored 13 points and 7 assists due to playing time restrictions, not only scored 19 points in a single quarter, but also added 4 assists in the third quarter of tonight's game!

Led by the energetic Phoenix Golden Flash, Smalls and Marion are also constantly attacking the Wizards' interior line.

In the moment of desperation, Rivers did not forget to provide an assist to the Suns in the second half of the third quarter.

I saw on the field, Heywood up, Wallace down.

And then......

There is no then.

"Why did this kid grow so fat all of a sudden?" On the Suns bench, while eating doughnuts with Wang Shuo, Barkley asked.

Touching his lower abdomen, which had been gradually bulging due to snacking with Barkley recently, Wang Shuo said after a long sigh: "Brandon has always liked to snacking, but during my coaching, he was strictly controlled. ”

Judging from Wang Shuo's visual observation, tonight's Heywood may weigh 130 kilograms.

After Wallace went off the court, the Wizards' retreat speed dropped a notch significantly.

On the court, even if the "Martial Saint" Jackson has a heart, it is difficult to return to the sky.

After all, Gasol and Arenas, who have been killed by Rivers, are not good at defense.

So, after three quarters, the scoreboard reads:

101 to 73.

In the last quarter of the game, Wang Shuo took the initiative to withdraw all the main forces after arranging for the players who did not have enough data tonight to brush up on the data for two or three minutes, retaining the last trace of face for his old club Wizards.

In the end, as the timer of the fourth quarter went to zero, the finishing score of the game was also fixed at 131-101.

The good news is that this game is a rare game for the Wizards to break 100 this season.

The bad news is that the Suns scored the Wizards' full-court game tonight in just three quarters.

Iverson played 29 minutes for the Suns, totaling 32 points and 11 assists.

Smalls and Marion played 28 minutes and scored 25 and 21 points respectively.

On the Wizards' side, Gasol and Arenas had 27 points, 11 rebounds, 28 points and seven assists, respectively.

After the game, Rivers shook the pot with a depressed face: "Although Wang is the meritorious coach of the Wizards, I don't think the fans should snub us so much on this night."

And after Ron and Richard left, I think the overall strength of the team has really taken a toll and people should be more patient.

We didn't defend well and neither Stephen nor Gerrard played as well as they should.

Jamal also didn't play decisively enough and he deserved more points. ”

Tut!

At the press conference, when the reporters conveyed Rivers' post-game thoughts to Wang Shuo, Wang Shuo couldn't help but think of those superstars who were dumped by Rivers in the future.

For example, before Wang Shuo crossed over, Harden had just been dumped by Rivers.

But, let's just say, is there a possibility, even if you Rivers want to shake the pot, it should be the soft Embiid who can only get his mouth hard all over his body?

After all, without Harden, you Rivers probably wouldn't even have a chance to be overturned by the Celtics.

However, only daring to pinch soft persimmons is also a major feature of Rivers' coaching career.

At the moment, give Rivers a hundred guts, and he does not dare to accuse Gasol and Arenas of having problems.

Because, he still has to count on these two people to keep his job.

As for Jackson, Wallace ......

In Rivers' eyes, role players are born to take the blame.

Wang Shuo felt that Rivers had quietly planted a big thunder for this wizard.

But tonight, in an interview with reporters, Wang Shuo didn't talk too much about the Wizards and Rivers, but was frantically canvassing for Iverson, Xiaosi and Marion.

"Allen's performance this season has proven that he is the best point guard in the league today.

Amare is fully qualified to be an All-Star, and I've already talked to him about him going to the NbA's slam dunk contest.

I've choreographed a lot of moves for him, and trust me, you're going to see a great slam dunk contest.

I know that Sean has not been very popular, but in my opinion, he should also be an All-Star, because the league should not ignore a quality player like Sean. ”

Right now, voting for the first round of the 2004 All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles has begun.

As the best chicken soup for the soul in Wang Shuo's eyes, in his opinion, there is nothing more intense on the field than helping players fight for personal honors off the field and on the field.

Although Stoudemire has drastically reduced the frequency of hitting the basket this season, he still brings a lot of highlights to the fans in the game.

In addition to the United States, Iverson is also very popular in China, and it is no surprise that Iverson will become the starting guard of the Western Stars this season.

As for Marion......

Because this buddy's appearance and style of play really don't attract fans, Wang Shuo can only keep "reminding" the judges that in the future, when selecting the substitute lineup, don't forget Sean Marion.

The next day, after Wang Shuo announced that Xiao Si would participate in the Los Angeles All-Star Weekend Slam Dunk Contest, it immediately attracted a large number of fans.

In China, Stoudemire has a lot of fans.

Because this season, in an interview with a Chinese reporter, there were two unlucky people who had not done their homework beforehand, and they were stopped by Xiao Siyong......

After the news was transmitted back to China, it immediately aroused heated discussions among Chinese fans.

In stark contrast, there is another gifted high school student.

In December, perhaps because he was stimulated by the "little overlord" who was in the limelight, or maybe he felt that his "little emperor" could not lose to the "little overlord" in the west next door......

In an interview, LeBron James told reporters: "I usually like to read. ”

Then, the same thing as Wang Shuo remembers.

When asked by reporters what books he was reading, Zhan, a young man who was completely unprepared, began to care about him.

When he saw the news, as the head of Jammy, Wang Shuo never expected that his deliberate behavior of letting Xiao Si show in front of Chinese reporters would cause such a big chain reaction!

At this moment, Wang Shuo, who couldn't wait to "stab" himself first and then "stab" himself, hated that he had forgotten His Majesty the Emperor, the thunder he had buried for himself in the early days of his career!

So, in NbA, why can't you learn from Garnett?

Garnett is dyslexic, but Garnett will never tell reporters that he is very cultured!

It's never a shame to be uneducated.

After all, no one can decide their birth, no one can decide the environment in which they grew up.

It's a shame that if you are not educated, you have to pretend that you are very literate in front of the public.

In the eyes of Wang Shuo, the head of Jammy, even if it is ...... What if James read a few Hans Christian Andersen or Grimm's fairy tales before bragging to reporters that he was a good reader?

Fortunately, the reporters did not embarrass James that day.

However, after this incident, Xiao Si's popularity in China has reached a new level.

Because of Wang Shuo's relationship, as Chinese fans continue to understand Xiao Si, they will find that Xiao Si's buddy really understands more than many Chinese.

And with his nickname of "Little Overlord", as well as those wonderful dunks on the court.....

Wang Shuo believes that when the all-star voting officially begins, in addition to voting for Xiao Yao, Chinese fans will definitely not forget Xiao Si!

……

In December, because the sun was not scheduled to fight the Christmas war this year, Wang Shuo also got the precious Christmas holiday for three consecutive years.

Before the start of the Christmas holiday, Wang Shuo, who led the team to end this wave of Eastern away trips with a complete victory, encountered a fierce sniper from the "Lakers F4" in Los Angeles.

This time, Payton and Malone didn't fight, but the Lakers won instead.

On the court, O'Neal and Kobe, who were fighting with each other, led the Lakers to play a good half of the game.

Bell, who still needs to level up, failed to lock up Kobe Bryant this night.

On the contrary, the "Zen Master" used Kobe Bryant's strategy to defend against Iverson and achieved good results.

As a future Iverson in an interview, he personally admitted that he least wanted to face the player on the field......

Although in the future, there will be a group of fans who only watch Excel who say that Kobe Bryant only has an overall shooting rate of about 41% in his 7 Finals career experience, which is far lower than the overall shooting rate of more than 50% in the Finals of James, who "led the team" to the Finals 10 times.

But Ling said......

Now that you know how to use and read Excel.....

So why can't you look up the stats of the players who played against Kobe Bryant in the Finals and James in the Finals?

In the 00 Finals, why did O'Neal call Kobe Bryant his omnipotent little brother?

Because in the four games that Kobe Bryant played, Reggie Miller, who was opposite Kobe, was limited to 37% by Kobe Bryant's shooting percentage, and in the two games when Kobe Bryant was injured and missed, Miller's overall shooting percentage skyrocketed to 47%.

In the 01 finals, many people thought that Coach Lu and Fisher were defending Iverson, but they didn't know that the Lakers' final move was to use Kobe Bryant to oppose Iverson.

That year, when facing Kobe, Iverson's shooting percentage would be more than 4 percent.

And in the 04 Finals, although Hamilton did stun Kobe Bryant on the court, at the same time, he also only hit 40.5% of the shooting rate under Kobe's crazy bite.

In the 09 Finals, Cornett Lee, who played opposite Kobe Bryant most of the game, only had a shooting rate of 37.5%, and in the 10 Finals, Ray Allen's shooting rate was limited to 36.7% by Kobe.

In fact, in the 7 Finals of Kobe's career, except for Ray Allen, who had an overall shooting rate of 50.7% in 08, and Kittels, who had an overall shooting rate of 45.2% in 02, Kobe Bryant had 5 successful Finals successes, suppressing the overall shooting percentage of the players opposite him below their career level.

And even if he would rather fight Thanos, Iron Man is not willing to fight Zhan with all his might?

10 finals, to be honest, it may be a bit ugly.

But the truth is, All-Out Zhan is only defending against a Bruce Bowen who has no autonomous offensive ability at all.

In the 11 Finals, the elderly Marion, who played against James for most of the game, shot 47.9% overall.

In the 12 Finals, Durant, who was not yet the "Grim Reaper" at the time, shot 54.8% overall from the field.

In the '13 Finals, Leonard, who was a sophomore at the time, shot 51.3% from the field overall.

And in the 14 Finals, Leonard, who relied on James to get the FmVp, was even more outrageous, with an overall shooting rate of an astonishing 61.2%.

In the '15 Finals, even the Warriors' own fans admitted that they couldn't score after shooting the basketball, and Iguodala shot 52.1% overall in that round of the Finals.

In the 16 Finals, it was still Iguodala, but a brother who was a year older, and he was still able to shoot 46.6% in front of James.

In the '17 and '18 Finals, Durant, who couldn't beat the Finals, shot 55.6% and 52.6% overall in the Finals in these two years, respectively.

In the 20 Finals, Jimmy Butler's shooting percentage in the Finals far exceeded his personal career average of 55.2%.

Yes, in NbA, even if you are in the same position, it does not mean that you will be in the same position in the match.

For example, when he was a young Zhan, in the Finals with the Spurs, James would often take the initiative to defend Parker in the game.

And then what?

Hot knowledge, Tony Parker is the FmVp of the '07 NbA Finals.

On the basketball court, it may be an accident to let a player in the same position play far beyond his career level once or twice.

But......

What about 9 times?

It can't all be teammates cbA, do your best, right?

It is true that Kobe Bryant's Finals shooting percentage is not high, but many people ignore the defensive responsibilities he took the initiative to provoke in the Finals.

Just like you can't deny Black Garnett those defensive contributions he did for his teammates on the court just because he didn't die with his mid-range shot.

It's true that James has a higher shooting percentage in the Finals.

But you can't turn a blind eye to the FmVp that James gave away in the Finals!

Ha?

You say Kobe Bryant's defense is great because he has strong teammates helping him?

If you don't understand, just ask, during the oK three-in-a-row, if you say that Fisher can do Kobe Bryant some favors on the court.

During the "Lakers Second Dynasty", in NbA, is there a guard who is easier to pass than Fisher?

Also, if you really want to compare with your teammates, no one really thinks that Wade, who was beaten by "Brother Basketball" to lower his historical status, was not the top outside defender in the league at that time, right?

No one really thinks that Dellavedova's defense, which is eager to kill Curry, is it an ornament?

No, no!

To be reasonable, even a James leader like Wang Shuo can't be so brazen.

But unfortunately, as long as you don't watch the game, just watch Excel, you will never be able to break the defense of that group of people.

Even if you look at Excel, that group of people still have to pick and choose the data that is beneficial to their idols to see.

"If in the playoffs, the Lakers use Kobe Bryant to defend Allen, how do we deal with that?" On this day, after losing to the Lakers before the Christmas break, Mike Brown asked with a worried look on his face.

Wang Shuo smiled and said, "Then give him defense!" ”

Wang Shuo knows very well that because Kobe Bryant knows that he has never been Jordan, he has always been good at dragging opponents into the rhythm of playing iron together, and then using his physical strength to complete the strangulation of opponents.

But when it comes to the playoffs, how can Wang Shuo let Keru wish?

The Lakers are in the No. 4 position this year, and Malone and "Cobra" Grant, who jumped back to Los Angeles from the Magic this summer, are both older.

So, when it comes to the playoffs, who will let Iverson and you Kobe Bryant one-on-one?

Wang Shuo believes that in the playoffs, as long as Iverson and Xiaosi launch a pick-and-roll, then everything will be fine.

Lost to the Lakers on the road, in December, before the Christmas holiday, on the 23rd, the Suns also lost to the SuperSonics in Seattle.

In this game, Wang Shuo didn't even review after the game.

Because of this game, which was played on the 23rd night, the Suns' minds were clearly on the upcoming Christmas Eve.

As for why the supersonic players were not disturbed by Christmas Eve......

Because they can go home after the game, how can they be in such a hurry as the Suns players who need to fly back to Phoenix?

From December 5th to December 23rd, the Suns players who have been playing on the road have long been tormented by this wave of road trips in the East and the West.

Wang Shuo knows very well that the players are people, not machines.

Therefore, after leading the team back to Phoenix, Wang Shuo immediately announced that the team was disbanded on the spot, and everyone went back to their respective homes, found their mothers, and celebrated the holiday with peace of mind.

At this time, this kind of rare and precious vacation is far more effective than Wang Shuo saying a hundred words of chicken soup for the soul to the players.

Compared with the previous two years, this year, after meeting Ambrosio, a "good friend", Wang Shuo finally felt what the real "Christmas holiday" is.

In the hotel room, looking at Ambrosio, who had already filled the room with a Christmas atmosphere and even put on an "elk suit" to add to the atmosphere for himself, Wang Shuo, who had always been a do-it-aller, was not polite to this hot Brazilian lady.

After first explaining to her what "long-distance and close attack" is, Wang Shuo immediately explained to her what "false path" is.

"So what does it mean to be anti-guest-oriented?" Ambrosio, who was "honest" with Wang Shuo, asked with a strong look of "curiosity".

On the hotel bed, after lying down, Wang Shuo said with a smile: "I am the master, you are the guest, I think with your wisdom, you should be able to understand what it means to be 'anti-guest-oriented'." ”

Hearing this, after Ambrosio smiled, she who has always been "studious" immediately felt from Wang Shuo what it means to be "broad and profound".

"Are you always attacking so hard?" In order to "defend" Wang Shuo, this night, Ambrosio, who had already taken out his "strength" to "defend" Wang Shuo, gasped and asked.

Wang Shuo smiled: "You know, I am the star coach of NbA who is the best at breaking tight defenses. ”

"Can you attack any harder?" After gradually getting used to Wang Shuo's "offensive intensity", Ambrosio, who even did not hesitate to sacrifice the "dirty action" of "biting" when defending, asked.

Wang Shuo was happy and said: "My coaching style has always been more and more courageous! ”

"On the field", in the face of Ambrosio's "death entanglement", Wang Shuo, who was not panicked at all, used the "dragon gripper" with his backhand, you know, in NbA, you don't know how to use "small actions" on the field, but you can't survive in NbA.

This night, in this scorching match, Wang Shuo and Ambroxiu both admitted afterwards that each other was the strongest opponent they had ever met.

At halftime, Ambrosio snuggled up to Wang Shuo's chest and asked, "Next, can I go to the home stadium to watch your game?" ”

Wang Shuo used his restless hand to help Ambrosio check whether she was injured from the "game" just now, and said with a smile: "No problem." ”

"Do you like cosplay?" Ambrosio asked as he circled Wang Shuo's chest.

Wang Shuo said with a serious face: "I am definitely an expert in this area. ”

Ambrosio giggled twice and said, "I still have a lot of cosplay costumes, can you help me 'taste' them from a 'professional point of view'?" ”

Wang Shuo shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm glad to do it." ”

With the fiery Phoenix and the enthusiastic Brazilian girl, Wang Shuo can be said to have spent his Christmas holiday this year perfectly.

After the Christmas break, the Suns defeated the Celtics, 76ers, and Clippers in the final stages of 2003.

In all three games, the Suns won easily.

The only thing worth mentioning is that the Suns are at home against the 76ers.

This season, although under D'Antoni, Marbury played quite beautiful statistics, but when the game ended, looking at Marbury's expression on his face, Wang Shuo felt that the 76ers were likely to trade him in the future.

Under D'Antoni's leadership, the 76ers have also become an offensive team this season.

However, they still need to upgrade in the roster, and they are currently only ranked 10th in the East.

After the game, D'Antoni had supper with Wang Shuo, and as a passer-by, when Wang Shuo's Brazilian female companion went to the toilet, he reminded Wang Shuo: "You are about to be 30, you should take care of your body more often, and you must not forget your daily exercise because of your busy work." ”

Wang Shuo expressed his deep gratitude for D'Antoni's concern, but also smiled: "I now get up every morning to run. ”

No way.

Wang Shuo, who doesn't want to become an Anxi coach in the future because he has a Barkley by his side, has recently begun to strengthen his physical exercise.

……

Say goodbye to 2003, and at the beginning of 2004, that hated road trip to the East is here again!

On January 1, after the NbA officially announced the results of the first two All-Star voting and the results of the major awards in December, the Suns will go to Detroit in the "New Year's War" on the 2nd to challenge the Pistons, who are currently ranked first in the East.

Since Xiaoyao entered the league, although O'Neal has felt the horror of the Chinese market, on this day, when the results of the first two All-Star voting were released, O'Neal still couldn't believe it......

How could he have lost so completely!

If Wang Shuo remembers correctly, in the original All-Star voting, in order to retain O'Neal's card as the league's No. 1 center, Stern would make Xiao Yao narrowly defeat O'Neal with only tens of thousands of votes.

But with the trajectory of history completely disrupted, where does Stern need to take people's feelings into account when Xiaoyao has played "20+10" star center data this season?

In this life, the enthusiasm of the Chinese market is even more outrageous than Wang Shuo remembers.

Because as he becomes more and more well-known in China, he, Yao Ming, and Happy BoY Wang Zhizhi have already brought Stern a prosperous NbA era that he couldn't have imagined before!

This season, Stern, who originally thought that after Jordan retired, the popularity of NbA would drop significantly, found through various data that after completely opening up the Chinese market, the popularity of NbA did not fall but rose.

So while it may be heart-wrenching for O'Neill to say it......

But if it weren't for Stern protecting him behind his back, Yao Ming's actual votes would have made O'Neill even more desperate.

In addition, in terms of Western defender votes this year, Iverson also rode with Kobe.

Although the "Eagle County incident" greatly affected Kobe's image in the minds of American fans, it was still the same sentence......

You American Comey are unwilling to vote for Kobe, what do you have to do with my Chinese Comey?

Because Wang Shuo and Jordan have always only praised and boasted about Kobe Bryant before, after Jordan retired, many old Chinese Wizards fans and Jordan fans regarded Kobe as their spiritual sustenance.

But where does this group of Chinese Honey know ......

As the supporting fans of Kobe's "global tour", the reason why Wang Shuo and Jordan praised Kobe so much before was just because they wanted to listen to Kobe's "iron sound" on the court?

In addition, in the forward position, Garnett and Duncan also felt the terrible popularity of Xiao Si.

Fans who hoped Stoudemire would save the dunk contest like Wallace were voting wildly for Smalls.

Plus there are Chinese fans who don't know how many votes you can vote for.

Don't ask, ask is that in the all-star voting, if the strength can be used as food, then how can Carter be the all-star vote king for so many years in Wang Shuo's memory?

After winning the Western Conference Player of the Month in November, Iverson also won the NbA Western Conference Player of the Month in December with an outstanding performance of 33.1 points and 11.7 assists per game.

It is worth mentioning that compared to the past Iverson fans who prefer to boast about Iverson's ability to attack at critical moments......

Now, Iverson's fans have changed their tunes:

It's a pity, this season, why don't you give Allen a chance to prove himself in the fourth quarter?

In the market, for this "Versailles" behavior of Amy, God knows how many fans who are full of resentment because their stars "win hard and lose simply"?

Wang Shuo's previous life, why do many people like to blow Jordan's "Never grab seven in the finals"?

Because you don't have to wait for a tie-break to beat your opponent, isn't that a great proof that your strength is far above your opponent?

No, such a danzi is not worth bragging about......

Could it be that the stars who are easily swept in the finals, can be easily defeated by their opponents in five or six games, and in turn have to win by playing seven to win two of the four championships?

What bullshit logic?

In December, in addition to Iverson winning the Western Conference Player of the Month for the second consecutive year, the Eastern Conference Player of the Month was won by O'Neal Jr.

In addition, the Rookie of the Month award in the East and West was divided between James and Anthony, respectively.

And looking at Xiao Si next door who is hoping to be shortlisted for the All-Star Game because of his participation in the slam dunk contest, James and his team also gave Wang Shuo, the hardcore Jamie, a hard job again:

"LeBron is eager to compete in the slam dunk contest, and he wants to prove himself in the dunk contest.

But it doesn't have to be Los Angeles, maybe he'll be in next year's slam dunk contest, maybe the year after. ”

Because of the dunk action that Wang Shuo helped Wallace design back then, it is still widely praised by fans......

So James, who is worried that he will not be able to compete with Xiao Si in the Los Angeles Slam Dunk Contest, hopes to use the dunk contest to win fans for himself, but he has not forgotten to leave himself a certain room for maneuver in the future.

I might or may not participate in the slam dunk contest anyway.

As for when I will attend......

Then only God knows!

And after learning of James's speech, Wang Shuo can be described as "heartbroken"!

At this moment, Wang Shuo hated the little emperor and hated that the little emperor was surrounded by a group of slanderous ministers!

After all, James at this time has just celebrated his 19th birthday, so he doesn't believe that Wang Shuo is killed, that young Zhan who has no quarrel with the world, who is humble and cautious, and who is just a little older, will be so sleek and sophisticated, and will be so suffocating!

In short, it can't be James who is wrong, it must be the group of traitors around him! His Majesty the Emperor must be good, and it's no wonder that this group of people is trying their best to give him ideas day by day!

But here's the problem......

Generally in adulthood, after the pro-government of the dynasty......

The emperor who can be played with like this by the people around him, put aside the ancient times, should he be called a sentence:

- Puppet Emperor or Senseless Emperor?

Of course, as a hardcore Jammy, Wang Shuo never dared to think like this and question LeBron James.

On January 2, in Detroit, the Suns successfully took revenge on the Pistons.

In this blockbuster matchup between the top of the East and West tables, the quality of the game is still extremely high.

Although the score of the two teams was only 101-94.

However, on the evening of the 2nd, the fans enjoyed a match that represented the highest level of NbA today.

At this time, Carlisle, who also needs to be leveled, made a big mistake in this game.

That is, he didn't take advantage of the second quarter, when the Suns bench was about to run out of breath, to add another fire to the Suns.

Since the Suns are accustomed to playing in the third quarter this season, Carlisle also focused on the third quarter of the game.

However, this adjustment allowed the Suns to stabilize the situation that they were close to collapse in the second quarter.

In the third quarter of the game, the Pistons did withstand the pressure of the Suns.

But in the final quarter, as the game entered the stalemate stage, the power of Iverson's "one point of rain" was fully demonstrated on this night.

This Pistons are slightly weaker in hard solving ability, but they win in a balanced offense and defense.

But with Iverson able to continue to kill the Pistons' defense with a "one-pointer", the Pistons obviously had problems on both ends of the floor.

And after this game, Carlisle and Wang Shuo also realized the importance of home advantage in this year's playoffs.

Because no matter how much the league wants to praise Iverson, the number of free throws Iverson has made at home and away in the playoffs.

However, compared to the eastern part where Carlisle is located......

This season, it will obviously be more difficult for the Suns to play the No. 1 record in the league.

On January 9, after ending the team's 2004 Eastern road trip with four consecutive wins, the Suns returned to Phoenix and were met by the Kings, a powerhouse in the West.

In this game, although Webb was trapped by injury and could not play for the Kings, the Suns, who only beat the Bulls on the evening of the 8th, were also affected by back-to-backs.

In addition, Bibby, who had a good hand this night, also used his 34 points for the king to offset Iverson's critical damage.

Wang Shuo knows that if the Suns want to get a better record, the only way at present is to ignore the dissuasion of Phoenix's "repair shop" and fight like D'Antoni.

Then wait for the new season to break these players, and then wait for the new season, and the Phoenix "Repair Factory" can restore these players to "factory settings".

In Wang Shuo's view, this kind of behavior that outweighs the losses, even if it is a last resort, he will not choose to take this road.

Because in this era when the interior line is full of monsters, you can't let Wang Shuo learn from D'Antoni and use Marion to play center, right?

That kind of approach lasted for a while, and it couldn't help the Suns advance to the finals.

19th, 23rd.

The Suns suffered two more defeats in the New Year.

The opponents are the Lakers and Spurs, respectively.

In this game with the Lakers, Wang Shuo has nothing to say.

Because on the 18th, the Suns had just finished back-to-back games with the Trail Blazers.

If it is a former wizard, this kind of back-to-back, Wang Shuo can also deal with it by rotating the main force.

But in Phoenix, Wang Shuo, who has limited manpower, must first ensure that the Suns can steadily eat those opponents that the Suns can win.

In Wang Shuo's memory, the Lakers, who have reached the finals even with constant internal friction, will not become weaker because of Wang Shuo's usual complaints, but will only become stronger because of the sharpness shown by the Suns in the new season.

The "Zen master" can arrange for Kobe Bryant to play the whole game.

But Wang Shuo didn't want Iverson and Kobe Bryant to play iron on the court all night.

As for the game lost to Spurs on the 23rd, it also confirmed Wang Shuo's previous conjecture.

That is, after being knocked out by the Suns in the opening game, the Spurs really regarded the Suns as a thorn in their side and a thorn in the flesh on their way to the championship.

In this game, Sima Bobo switched to Duncan to play center, took the initiative to speed up, and defeated the Suns, who had just come down from the Denver Plateau on the evening of the 22nd, with a pair of attacks.

Although on the evening of the 22nd, Wang Shuo successfully led the team to capture the Denver Plateau.

But he Wang Shuo didn't understand......

Do these NbA staff who arrange the schedule really not know how hard it is to play in the highlands?

In January, the Suns, who were either on the way to the Devil's schedule or had just finished the Devil's schedule, ended their regular season journey in the first month of the new year with a 39-10 record after beating the Knicks on the road on the evening of the 31st and continued to lead the West.

However, in the league's overall record standings, the Suns have been opened up by the 42-7 Pistons.

On February 1, the results of the NbA All-Star Voting and the results of the major awards in January were released one after another.

This year, plagued by the Wizards' disappointing record and the departure of Wang Shuo, Gasol was unable to defeat the entire Detroit village in the battle for the starting spot at the Eastern Conference star center.

The starting five of the Eastern Stars are as follows:

Big Ben, Little O, Carter, Maddie, Kidd.

The starting five of the western stars are as follows:

Yao Ming, Garnett, Xiao Si, Kobe, Iverson.

With the full support of his parents back home in Minnesota, Garnett successfully defended his All-Star starting spot.

But Duncan in the place of San Antonio was not so lucky.

Due to Sima Bobo's classic theory that "too many points on the court will affect the team's performance", Duncan could not have garnett, with the help of his teammates, to gain more support from neutral fans by brushing up a wave of good-looking statistics.

Moreover, in terms of Duncan and Garnett's style of play, the latter is indeed much more handsome.

Therefore, in the past few years, Duncan, who has felt more and more that he can't be hurt by his loyalty, has also made up his mind after the results of this year's All-Star voting are released:

In the future, he will have to prove himself in a bigger city!

Duncan, who turned 28 in April, believes he will be able to maintain his peak until he is at least 35 years old after gradually transitioning to floor-to-floor play.

So he's not afraid to start all over again, he's just afraid to continue to waste time in San Antonio, a city that has no exposure to speak of.

In NbA, no player can be truly uncontested.

Duncan, who currently has only one championship, one Finals MVP, and one regular season MVP, is already deeply aware of the ......

At present, whether it is in terms of individual honors, team honors and popularity, he has no advantage over his contemporaries.

So, even if the Spurs were able to win another championship in the last two years of San Antonio, Duncan made up his mind to leave here.

In addition, after Yao Ming snatched the starting position of the Western Conference star center for two consecutive years, the rift between O'Neal and the Lakers management has also deepened.

Because in O'Neal's view, Kobe Bryant can continue to sit as the first in the West in the face of negative news.....

But he has been bleeding and sweating for the Lakers, but he has not been supported by the people of Los Angeles, and in O'Neal's eyes, this is simply an incomprehensible thing.

In fact, O'Neal completely blamed the Lakers management, as well as the Los Angeles people.

Because of tiny Los Angeles......

Where can it compare to China's nearly 1.3 billion people?

But it's like, many people like to dump the pot on their teammates first after experiencing something unsatisfactory.....

Because O'Neal couldn't believe it and didn't want to admit that his popularity was no longer as good as Yao Ming's, he naturally had to dump the pot on the Lakers management.

But right now, the more proud O'Neal is, the more he uses it to blackmail the Lakers into giving him a raise, and in Jerry Buss's eyes, it's time for him to leave Los Angeles.

"If we don't win the championship this year, let's rebuild!" On this day, Jerry Bass said to Kupchak.

"But the boss...... If we rebuild, who will we focus on in the future? Kupchak, who had already had an idea in his mind, asked knowingly.

"Stay Kobe! Although he is now riddled with negative news off the court, you can also see that he still has a large number of fans in China.

He's also younger, and he's a rookie that we've picked ourselves, so even if he's not happy when the team rebuilds in the future, I'm confident I'll be able to convince him. Old Bass said to Kupchak.

Hearing this, after getting clear instructions from the boss, Kupchak said at this time: "I understand what you mean, boss, I will prepare in advance." ”

The series of historical changes caused by the results of this year's All-Star voting are not listed for the time being.

In January, the Western Conference's Player of the Month award was won by the All-Star starter, who had to turn on All-Strength Mode in order to defend the All-Star starting spot.

In all 18 games for the Timberwolves in January, Garnett averaged a staggering 45.4 minutes per game!

He averaged 27.5 points and 17 rebounds per game in January, along with 5.5 assists, 2.0 blocks and 1.5 steals.

However, even if the "Wolf King" kills madness in January, he can only settle for second place in this year's mVp rankings.

Because in the eyes of many......

As long as Iverson can play the season in its entirety, he should be the undisputed MVP of this year's regular season as the leading scorer and assist leader.

In addition to Garnett, who won the Western Conference Player of the Month for January, the NbA Eastern Conference Player of the Month for January was won by Michael Reed.

In addition, the East and West Rookie of the Month in January is still divided between the two brothers, James and Anthony.

Even though in January, Wade's statistics were on par with James, and the Heat's record was better, the NbA judges who "knew the ball" still agreed that James, who was more "calm and calm" in the game, had more "leadership temperament"!

As for those "brainless blacks" who questioned the fairness of the selection after the selection results were released, it is obvious that they do not know what the gold content of the whole staff "Gang" Zhan is.

Ahh

Why did the judges "stumble" Zhan? The judges are clearly defending the "fairness, openness and impartiality" of NbA, right?

And with the release of the starting list of the East and West Stars of this year's Star Weekend, later on the 1st, the NbA official also announced the substitute list of the East and West Stars of the Los Angeles All-Star Game.

Marion, who has been talked about by Wang Shuo for most of the season, was indeed selected for this year's Western Stars substitute list.

This year's East and West alternate lists are as follows:

East: Baron Davis, Pierce, Arenas, Michael Reed, Ray Allen, Kenyon Martin, Gasol.

West: Marion, Nowitzki, Duncan, O'Neill, Kirilenko, Kassel, Peja.

It's the same as Wang Shuo remembers.

Stern, who wants to take the NbA's international profile one step closer by promoting international players, hinted during this year's selection process that the judges had selected Kirilenko as a substitute for this year's Western Stars.

Of course, if you want to be supported by the league, the player's own quality must also be excellent.

This season, with Malone leaving and Stockton retiring, the reason why the Jazz still have hope of hitting the playoffs is definitely due to Kirilenko.

So far, Kirilenko is averaging 16.8 points, 8.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 2.8 blocks and 2.0 steals per game for the Jazz.

Judging from the performance of the game, this "Aka 47" is fully worthy of an all-star seat.

In addition to announcing the substitute list of the East and West Star teams, this year's East and West Star Team coaches will also be served by Carlisle and Wang Shuo respectively.

Although in NbA, there is an unwritten rule that an NbA head coach cannot be the head coach of a star team for two consecutive years.

But because last year, in order to use Wang Shuo's influence to raise awareness of the NbA All-Star Weekend, Stern had already broken this rule under Mark's "good way".

So this year......

"Has NbA ever led the team to the first place in the division for two consecutive years, when they moved from the east to the west, or from the west to the east?" On this day, Stern, who "doesn't know how to play and can't watch Excle," asked curiously.

"I was under my impression...... In the past twenty years, there has been no such thing anyway. Because even Phil took a year off in the '98/'99 season. Mark replied.

"So in that case, who should be the head coach of this year's Western Stars?" Stern asked.

"In my opinion, the fans may want to see Wang in charge." Mark said.

Stern nodded and said, "In that case, what do we do as a league that has always respected the fans and is willing to change all the rules for the fans?" ”

Mark nodded sensibly and said, "David, I see what you mean, as a fair, open, and just alliance, we should not stick to those unwritten rules, or those rules that are no longer in line with the times."

The head coach of this year's Western Stars, we must fully respect the opinions from the fans! ”

Stern knows exactly who NbA's food and clothing are.

So, on the evening of the 1st, Wang Shuo, who was still busy learning martial arts with Miss Ambrosio, was arranged by Stern for three consecutive years.

Don't ask......

The question is that fans want to see what kind of ruthless work Wang Shuo can do at this year's Star Weekend!
