Chapter 821 Its the king again, dont mistake Seth for Curry
After finishing the back-to-back games with the Mavericks and having a good rest, Wang Zelin and the Trail Blazers visited Angel City again on the morning of the 27th.
Tonight, their opponent is the Los Angeles Clippers, and this game is also their last meeting this season.
Facing DeAndre Jordan, who didn't like Wang Zelin, the Trail Blazers bloodbathed their opponents at the Staples Center.
Due to Paul's departure, the Clippers management had already made plans to mess things up early this season. The trading nodes during the All-Star period did not make any reinforcements. Instead, they traded some junk contracts to prepare for the next one.
Prepare for the introduction of giant crocodiles into the summer trading market.
Now, the only thing the entire Clippers team can use to sell tickets is the white monster.
Not to mention, Griffin is indeed quite strong due to his short hands. And at the end of the season, he was still able to maintain averages of 27 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists per game, which makes him a top power forward in active service!
It's a pity that among the people who can still play on the Clippers, Griffin is the only one who is reliable.
Against DeAndre Jordan, Wang Zelin hit hard and scored 45 points and 18 rebounds. Although Griffin also recorded excellent statistics of 33 points and 8 rebounds, his performance was undoubtedly overshadowed by Wang Zelin.
114:86, the Trail Blazers refused to lose two consecutive games. Wang Zelin also used actions to officially declare the alliance: "Our goal has always remained unchanged, and the Bulls' 72-win victory has been determined!"
…
A night of silence.
Ignoring the discussion online, Wang Zelin got up early on the 28th and after breakfast, returned to the home court with the team.
That damn back-to-back again!
Fortunately, it was at home, and the opponent was the Philadelphia 75ers, who were even weaker than the Clippers.
To describe the Philadelphia 75ers this season in one sentence, that is: In the Eastern Conference, where the overall strength is already relatively weak, they have reached the bottom of the last echelon!
Looking at the record, it is 9 wins and 63 losses. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is shocking. To be able to do such a bad job can be said to be rare in ten years.
And if Wang Zelin remembers correctly, the 75ers’ final record in the regular season this season was an astonishing 10 wins and 72 losses!
Ahem, to a certain extent, it can be regarded as a tribute to the 96 Bulls... but it's a pity that it's the other way around.
The last time that the Charlotte Bobcats (later renamed the Hornets in 2013) were able to perform badly was back in the 2011-2012 season. It was also a shortened season.
A record of 7 wins and 59 losses.
What’s even more disturbing is that the Bobcats have replaced the Philadelphia 75ers’ record of 9 wins and 73 losses in the 1972-73 season, becoming the team with the lowest winning percentage in history, but in the end they only got the second pick, selecting Michael Kidd-Gill.
Krist.
Emmm, not only did we miss out on the former No. 1 pick Anthony Davis, but we also missed out on a lot of current emerging stars who have already emerged, such as Bill, Lillard, Barnes, Drummond, Green... and those who are currently in the spotlight.
Wang Zelin!
Needless to say, the God of Basketball does have something in his vision. He can always miss all the right choices and pick the worst one.
Let’s get down to business and return to the topic.
On the evening of the 28th, the Philadelphia 75ers visited the Rose Garden Arena.
As soon as they came up, they put together a lineup of Hollis Thompson, Insmel Smith, Jamila Grant, Carl Landry, and Isaiah Cannan.
Except for the former Mosaic player "Magic Bird" Landry, none of the remaining players Wang Zelin was impressed.
Well, even if he is a great bird, he is already in the last season of his career, so he is a proper veteran.
Facing such a pile of rotten fish and shrimps, it only took one quarter for the game to completely lose its suspense.
42:12, leading the opponent by 30 points in a single quarter is outrageous!
After the third quarter, the Trail Blazers successfully defeated their opponents and limited their opponents' scoring to 52 points. They led their opponents by 48 points in the third quarter. If they continue like this, they may not be far away from that mysterious number.
Fortunately, coach Terry adheres to the concept of "you are a guest from afar" and took back his main force in the final quarter and chose to let his opponent go.
31 points and 13 rebounds!
Wang Zelin entered the familiar double-quarter clock-in and clock-out period.
After the fourth quarter, the Trail Blazers beat their opponents 132:88 at home by 44 points.
In the last game of March, the Trail Blazers met the tenth-ranked Sacramento Kings in the Western Conference at home. This game was the third meeting between the two sides this season.
Speaking of which, if you really want to pick out one team from all the teams this season that can be called the enemy of the Trail Blazers, I'm afraid it's the only Kings team in front of you.
Regardless of luck or strength, the Kings are indeed the only team that can double-kill the Trail Blazers this season.
This is a feat even the Golden State Warriors have not accomplished!
But unfortunately, the Kings, a team that has been in the Western Conference and can't even make the playoffs, has finished.
It always feels like this is a ridiculous joke.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the match between the two sides officially started.
Recently, the Kings have promoted a young point guard wearing jersey No. 30 to his position. After several trials, the effect is pretty good.
His name is Seth Curry!
Many fans may have never heard of this guy, but his brother is famous.
That's right, it's Wang Zelin's biggest competitor for MVP this season, Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry!
Compared to his brother, Seth Curry's road to pursuing his NBA dream is much more bumpy.
If he was able to sign a non-guaranteed contract with the Warriors after losing the draft, it was because the Warriors management signed Curry because of his face.
So from being undrafted in 2013 to being gradually accepted by NBA teams, and now even briefly gaining the trust of the Kings and being appointed, it really all depends on my unremitting efforts.
Tonight, Seth Curry also became a major problem for the Trail Blazers.
As if to confirm the outside world's so-called statement that "someone will break out every time the Trail Blazers play against the Kings this season", Wiggins and Rondo did not break out in this game, but Seth Curry did.
It was so similar that many fans later joked, "Don't mistake Seth for Curry"!
After the first quarter, Seth Curry scored two three-pointers, helping the Kings to close the gap and fall behind by 5 points at 25:30.
Entering the second quarter, the Trail Blazers' rotation relied on Jokic and Beverley to easily crush their opponents, quickly expanding the score to double digits.
As a last resort, the Kings coach had to make a substitution and brought in Seth Curry, who performed well in the first quarter.
Then as soon as this guy came up, he suddenly scored a series of three-pointers. Beverley was immediately stunned, and his face was full of questions: Who is this guy?
By the time of the official timeout, Seth Curry had led his substitute teammates to reduce the score to only three points behind the Trail Blazers.
Beep~~
Coach Terry called a timeout, and his head was a little buzzing at the moment.
