Chapter 1100 The Clippers made a big wave and transformed into a spaceship!
The 2017 NBA All-Star Weekend is over.
But everything that happened during the 2017 All-Star Weekend is not over yet, and the outside world is still having heated discussions about this All-Star Weekend.
However, for NBA players, especially those who want to pursue a championship, the end of the All-Star Weekend and the orderly resumption of operations in the NBA means the beginning of the championship sprint.
Anyone who knows the NBA should know that the All-Star Weekend is the dividing line for the NBA regular season. Whether it is a team that wants to enter the playoffs or a team that wants to have a good home court advantage, it must win after the All-Star Weekend.
Be at your best and fight for everything you want.
And due to the warm-up in the previous months, every ball and team are in optimal condition at this time, so the intensity and difficulty of the game will also increase after the All-Star Weekend.
The Trail Blazers had to wait until the 23rd to start the game after the All-Star Weekend. On the 22nd, Wang Zelin and his teammates stayed in Portland to rest.
At 9 o'clock that evening, the NBA officially announced information about a three-party transaction that could affect the final pattern of this season.
On the last day of the free trade market for the 2016-17 season, the Clippers, Kings, and Pelicans finally reached a three-party deal after a nearly one-month battle.
As soon as he turned on his phone, he saw the news he wanted to know. As for trivial information such as trading chips, he didn't bother to pay attention.
The NBA official website officially announced that the Clippers, Kings and Pelicans have reached a three-point deal. The Clippers have acquired Kings point guard Rajon Rondo and Pelicans star Jimmy Butler. The two will play in the NBA.
After the weekend, the star joined the Clippers and teamed up with Blake Griffin!
Director Long, Jimmy Zai, White Monster... another group of three giants!
This deal was like a depth bomb, completely exploding among the fan base.
Originally, everyone was still discussing how exciting and classic the All-Star Weekend was... At this time, the Clippers suddenly started a big rhythm, and instantly formed another group of three giants in the league, and they were about to take off.
.
Not long ago, whether it was the team management, players and fans, the topic of the Clippers' new Big Three was at the center of heated discussions.
Especially for teams in the Western Conference that are hovering on the edge of the playoffs or at the back, the Clippers suddenly turned into a spaceship, making them feel even more pressure.
In fact, even top teams like the Trail Blazers, Warriors, and Spurs are feeling a bit of pressure at this time.
In any case, Rondo, Butler, and Griffin are all real All-Stars, and they play different positions, so they are very likely to complement each other.
No one can predict what kind of impact the Clippers' three giants will have on the Western Conference after the merger.
People often inevitably feel a little uneasy about the unknown.
Portland.
Wang Zelin opened the official comment area on the sofa in the villa or on his mobile phone, and it was already in full swing.
At this time, Ken Dou, who had just taken a shower, came over wearing vacuum pajamas and exposing her long legs:
"King, aren't you worried?"
Obviously, Kendou also learned about the transaction information
"What do I have to be afraid of?"
Wang Zelin motioned for her to sit down and watch the fun together.
Kendou naturally fell into Wang Zelin's arms: "The arms race in the Western Conference is getting crazier every year. Now that the Clippers have joined the Big Three, I'm worried that the Blazers' plan for four consecutive championships will..."
Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped and glanced at Wang Zelin.
"Will he die young?" Wang Zelin added with a smile.
But Kendou saw the strong confidence in his eyes, so he immediately felt relieved.
Really, if you doubt yourself, no one can doubt the king!
Unexpectedly, Wang Zelin's dominance in the NBA in recent years, Kendou laughed at himself, and then pushed hard into Wang Zelin's arms.
Feeling that Ken Dou was dishonest, Wang Zelin immediately came to Xingyu and kept climbing up with both hands.
Soon, everything fell into place.
The sound of spring water slowly gushing out soon came from the villa.
…
…
After the All-Star break, the Trail Blazers have 24 games left.
Currently, the Trail Blazers have 53 wins and 5 losses. 60 wins is basically a certainty, and 70 wins is also a high probability event. Even the 75 wins they just created last season may not be impossible to repeat.
NBA is where miracles are born!
There have been too many miracles for the Trail Blazers and Wang Zelin. Even if they really break through 70 wins again after the regular season, the fans will definitely accept it happily...what a ghost!
That’s 70 wins!
In history, only the Bulls of the last century, the Trail Blazers and the Warriors last season were able to get the full score. I really thought I was eating and drinking. I could take it if I wanted to, and break if I wanted to.
It is foreseeable that the Trail Blazers' final regular season record once again exceeded 70 wins, which will definitely trigger a new round of heated discussions.
This will also become a big bargaining chip for Wang Zelin to continue to defend the regular season MVP title.
On the morning of the 23rd, Wang Zelin followed the team to Detroit on a chartered flight. Tonight they will play the Pistons in their first game after the All-Star Game.
After the morning training, during the break after lunch, Wang Zelin took a look at the Eastern Conference's record rankings.
how to say?
To say intense, it is indeed intense. From the Eagles, which is sixth in the Eastern Conference, to the Pistons, which is ninth in the Eastern Conference, there are several teams with the same record. Even if there is a gap, it is only one win away. If you are not careful, you may be defeated.
Other teams took over.
Among the top teams, the Celtics have a huge lead and have basically secured their first place in the Eastern Conference.
There is only one win between the second-place Bulls and the third-place Cavaliers, and the fourth-place Raptors are close behind, only two games behind the Cavaliers.
The gap was slightly widened by the fifth-place Wizards, but the Wizards have six more wins than the Hawks. It is almost impossible for the Hawks to catch up with them.
If we want to divide the teams in the Eastern Conference that are capable of entering the playoffs into echelons, the Celtics, Bulls, Cavaliers, and Raptors are the first echelon. The largest record gap is between the Celtics and the Raptors.
There are only four wins.
The second echelon is the Wizards. They are not as good as the top team but more than the bottom team. They are considered to be in a league of their own.
Then there are the Hawks, Bucks, Pacers, Heat, Pistons and other five teams in the third tier. The record gap is somewhat similar to that of the first tier, and the two teams are closely chasing each other.
There is only a three-game gap between the Hawks, who are ranked sixth in the Eastern Conference, and the Pistons, who are ninth in the Eastern Conference. Who knows when the Pistons will show off their strength and have a small burst of energy to overtake the Hawks.
Therefore, from this point of view, the competition in the East is fierce!
However, you can’t just look at one side of everything. After looking at the parts, you have to look at the whole.
