During the five-game winning streak, Wang Zelin averaged 21.4 points and 11 rebounds per game, becoming the team's rebounding and scoring leader.
Thanks to his 37 points and 15 rebounds in the Mosaic game, his scoring average successfully exceeded 20 points per game, surpassing Aldridge's 20.5 points per game and becoming the first in the team.
For the remaining teammates, Aldridge averaged 20.5 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game, and as a shooting insider, his shooting percentage was steadily over 50%.
Lillard's 17.6 points and 8 assists were not as high as the 19 points in his previous life and he took 2 fewer shots, but his assists were 1.5 times more than his previous average of 6.5 per game.
Batum averaged 13 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists per game, Matthews 14 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, and Hickson, the core substitute, also averaged 10 points and 7 rebounds per game.
There are actually 6 players on one team averaging double figures, two of them scoring 20 points per game, and all the main players are so young. This is what makes other strong teams most fearful.
On the night after the game against the Timberwolves, "Blazers' 5th consecutive victory" once again detonated the American media and became a hot word that continuously dominates the Internet.
People are discussing enthusiastically~~~
"How long will the Trail Blazers' winning streak last?"
“What’s the value of five consecutive wins?”
"Will the Trail Blazers be the next Thunder?"
All the heated discussions temporarily suppressed the news about the Lakers' three-game losing streak.
People from Los Angeles commented with tears in their eyes!
At 10 a.m. on the 9th, TNT TV station launched a special program - "Breakdown of the Youth Army of the Alliance!"
The TNT team consisting of Shaquille O'Neal, Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, and Reggie Miller serves as the host of this show.
After the recording started, O'Neal made no secret of his admiration for Wang Zelin and called Wang Zelin's nickname "King" many times to express his love for this junior.
"King is undoubtedly the strongest traditional center of the new generation. Just look at his performance in the Olympics and regular season. No matter what kind of opponent he faces, he can achieve excellent data. The data does not lie. We should admit it.
His excellence!”
After he retired, the only traditional center that O'Neal recognized was Yao Ming, and he looked down upon that happy beast.
Dingtian is a super blue-collar guy, he has no technical skills at all, and he is still a superman!
When Yao Ming retired, O'Neal originally thought that there was no room for traditional centers in the league, but he didn't expect that a fellow Yao Ming would appear to carry the banner of traditional centers.
Especially when O'Neal sees Wang Zelin dunk under the basket, for some reason, he always feels particularly warm in his heart, and is reminded of his glorious past.
People like to miss the past when they get old, and at the same time they hope to find sustenance in young people.
There are those who are good-looking, and there are also those who are bad-faced!
In this case, the host must not unite the front, otherwise how will conflicts arise? How can the ratings be improved?
Money~~~How come it runs into your pocket obediently?
The person to play the bad role is of course Sir Charles Barkley, a frequent guest in basketball articles.
"Shaquille, I admit that the king you are talking about is a young center with great potential, but I think his current data and the team's record are quite high."
As soon as O'Neal finished speaking, Barkley immediately started spraying.
"Look at the data on the big screen. The opponents they encountered were seriously lacking in gold content. I have reason to believe that the Trail Blazers' five-game winning streak has an element of luck in it."
As they spoke, a data comparison appeared on the big screen behind the four players. It was exactly the opponent the Blazers had faced in five games.
"Then Wang also scored a double-double of 18 points and 11 rebounds against Dwight. You have to know that Dwight is currently the number one center in the league, and he is good at defense. You can't question this value.
Bar?"
To Barkley's left, his long-time partner Kenneth Smith jumped out to refute him at the right time.
"Oh, to be the number one center in the league is just for this era. If back then..."
O'Neal, on the far right, showed disdain after hearing Kenny Smith's evaluation of Howard.
This time, Barkley rarely stood on the same front as the fat man he hated most, and nodded noncommittally.
But he quickly continued to argue his own evidence: "Stop talking, how could Howard defend in that game? Let's look at the high-level data. His defensive efficiency in that game was not only far inferior to that of the Magic, but his turnover rate was even more appalling.
"
"Haha, our Mr. Warcraft seems to have forgotten his special skills and turned to attack!" Reggie Miller, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help but smile.
"He doesn't have that talent!"
O'Neal made another stab.
In a large villa in Los Angeles, a certain muscular man slammed his cell phone at the TV, making a big hole.
"That's enough, you fat man. In addition to a regular season MVP, three AMVPs, three consecutive championships and three consecutive FMVPs, what else do you have to be so arrogant?"
"As for scolding me so much?"
"Really..."
I don’t know why, but someone’s voice gets quieter and quieter.
On the TNT TV side, the heated discussion about the Trail Blazers' 5-game winning streak is still going on.
At this time, O'Neal was already lying on Barkley, looking like he was "physically transcended".
"That's enough Shaquille!"
Barkley below suddenly roared, which scared O'Neal and jumped up quickly.
Is this guy really ready to take action?
Doesn't he know this is just a show effect?
Back then, Barkley was also known as a bad guy in the league. O'Neal, who described himself as a "gentleman," didn't think he could outdo his opponent.
Although like Kobe, he is never timid when it comes to fighting, but...
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading! After standing up and arranging his clothes, he looked at the big fat man next to him and thought about the money he was about to get. Buckley still loosened his right hand that was clenched into a fist.
.
"Since neither of you can convince the other, let me give you some advice!" Kenneth Smith continued after seeing the two naughty kids returning to normal, "First of all, we must admit that the Trail Blazers' schedule at the beginning of the season is indeed beneficial.
They, you have no problem with that, Shaquille!"
"No."
O'Neill finished sucking the bottle of oral liquid in front of him and nodded.
"The Blazers' opponents in the next five games are the Thunder, Mavericks, Clippers, Spurs and Hawks. They are a well-deserved playoff-level team and even have championship seeds. Why don't we just take the next five games?
Let’s make a bet on the competition!”
"ah!"
Barkley on the side suddenly recalled some unfriendly memories when he heard the word bet.
"I won't participate. The two parties are betting on you and Shaquille. How about it? Do you have any ideas?"
"No, I don't want this guy to kiss my ass."
Before Barkley could say anything, O'Neal quickly slapped the table and refused, showing off his "don't be beaten by labor" look.
"***, this hasn't even started yet. Why do you think you've won? How can you brag so well?"
Barkley, who originally didn't want to go through this muddy water again, immediately refused after hearing O'Neal's words.
"I didn't say I had to kiss my butt. This time the bet is whether the Trail Blazers can have a winning rate of over 50% in the next five games. You two can decide it yourself."
After saying that, Kenny Smith crossed his legs and watched the reactions of O'Neal and Barkley.
The same goes for Reggie Miller on the side.
Two sinister old guys firmly believe that the old enemies O'Neal and Barkley will definitely make a bet.
Now, what they desperately want to know is, what will be the stakes?
