Chapter 117 Five consecutive victories

After returning to Portland, the Trail Blazers were waiting for it, and the next one was a wonderful three-game home game, and the opponent was just a weak team like the Kings, Supersonics and the Heat.

Li Zheng rejected McMillan's proposal to take a turnover. Jordan said that many fans have saved up a long time to watch his game, so he cannot disappoint these people. Li Zheng also does not want to disappoint Portland fans. What he wants to do is a real Portland hero, not a hypocritical honor reaper.

Li Zheng moved forward again in the MVP list, surpassing James to second place. The media exclaimed that Li Zheng had a great possibility of winning the regular season MVP in the rookie season. No player has completed this miracle since the two ancient beasts Wilt Chamberlain and Wesseld, and Li Zhengzheng was on the bright road.

Under the witness of home fans, Li Zheng also won two awards: Player of the Month and Rookie of the Month. December is a time of harvest for Li Zheng. Whether it is the performance of the field, attention outside the court, and the team's record are extremely perfect. Fans found that the strongest rookie in history and the first in history that the media often talks about is gradually becoming a reality.

Kevin Martin of the Kings is very good at hitting the car. His exaggerated physical performance always gets the sympathy of the referee. However, facing Li Zheng, he found that his clashing play style has completely lost its effect. Li Zheng almost always waits until he takes action and blocks it from a distance. The perverted bounce speed and extreme bounce make Li Zheng do whatever he wants. What's even more terrifying is that Li Zheng's dynamic vision and reflexive nerves, fake movements and real shooting movements are clearly visible in Li Zheng's eyes. Kevin Martin encountered an absolute natural enemy.

In the end, Li Zheng's move to defend Martin with his back hands became a classic picture. All the fans worshiped Portland's new king. People knew that Portland would revive, and they also knew that the Trail Blazers would go to a strong team with Li Zheng, but everyone did not expect that this moment would come so quickly.

102-84. The Trail Blazers easily beat the Kings, and the new scorer Kevin Martin averaged 23 points per game, only scored 7 points under the death of Li Zheng, including 2 free throws. On the offensive end, Li Zheng scored 28 points efficiently under Artest's defense.

Artest is the most well-known thorn in the league. Before the game started, he boldly told Li Zheng to teach him a lesson. However, after being shot continuously by Li Zheng in the game, he elbowed Li Zheng like a break, and then took two Ts at Light Speed ​​before leaving the court. After losing Artai, a defensive player and a player who can contribute 20 points on the offensive end, the Kings gradually went to a defeat.

After the game, Atai strongly criticized the penalty for this game. He also said that Li Zheng's toughness was pretending, and he did not dare to fight against a real tough guy at all. He also made a harsh word and he would take revenge in the next fight.

Li Zheng was too lazy to deal with this guy who was suspected of being manic. Atae did not hesitate to the referee elbowed Li Zheng in turn. Although Li Zheng was not in pain, the referee really couldn't stand this almost provocative behavior. This kid attributed the reason for eating T to the referee's preferential treatment of Li Zheng, and Li Zheng himself had nothing to say.

With the defeat of Barkley, the first anti-Li army, Li Zheng's public opinion environment can be said to be smooth sailing. Currently, Li Zheng has shown extremely strong dominance in both data and team performance, ranking first in scoring list, second in assist list, first in steal list, and seventh in block list. The bookmaker has adjusted Li Zheng's odds for MVP to surpass Yao Ming and James, and became the top three candidates with the lowest odds in one fell swoop.

The Trail Blazers won three consecutive victories without any blood. The Spurs ranked first in the West with 21 wins and 2 losses, followed by the Trail Blazers, second in the West with 20 wins and 3 losses, and the New Orleans Hornets ranked third in the West with 19 wins and 3 losses.

The New Orleans Hornets are extremely strong contenders in the West. The pick-and-rolls of Chris Paul and David West are almost unsolvable, the Parcelona can break through and shoot, and Tyson Chandler guards the inside. The Hornets team is strong, and the players each perform their duties and are closely united by Byron Scott.

Especially the team leader Chris Paul, his mature style of play and strong overall view allow him to help the team in various senses. He greatly improved the level of other players and demonstrated Nash's general organizational ability. In addition to being a little embarrassed when he met Li Zheng, he did not suffer any losses when he met any player. This is also the reason why he can rank fourth in the MVP list.

This year, the West is extremely wild. Although the Trail Blazers squeezed into second place in the West, their current rankings are not counted. The winning gap between the top five in the West is extremely weak. The Trail Blazers will be squeezed into fourth place in the West as long as they lose one game, and will fall into sixth place in the West if they lose two games. The Western teams seem to have completely given up playing badly and are all pursuing victory at full speed.

Some experts predict that the threshold for the Western Conference to enter the playoffs this year is highly likely to reach an astonishing 50 wins. The Western Conference's powerful teams not only enter the state in terms of team strength and game attitude, but many teams are even planning super deals. The Hornets, Suns, and Spurs seem to be pursuing suitable players in the free market and trading market.

The Hornets are pursuing the Clippers' super substitute Corey Mageti, averaging 17 points per game and playing with a very impactful style. The Hornets hope that he can make up for Paul's pressure on attack and allow Paul to devote more energy to organizing the team's offense.

The Suns are said to be brewing a super deal. According to reporters, the target of the transaction is very likely to be the Heat's super center Shark O'Neal. The West is now a nightmare for all insiders, the Little Shark Bynum, Al Jefferson, Nowitzki, Duncan and Yao Ming. Teams without excellent insiders can almost announce their farewell to the second round of the playoffs in advance.

The Suns' idea of ​​O'Neal to deal with Yao Ming and Duncan is obvious, but the Heat's sky-high asking price seems to have put the deal in a standstill. The Heat's Lions asked for Sir Si in a big way, but how could the Suns trade a super insider with averaging 34.5+9.5 per game and a young super insider to exchange for the Sharks at the Mid-Down West Mountain?

After Bowen retired, the Spurs hoped to find a player who could take on the outside defense responsibilities. Prince and Bathir of the Rockets and Lagabay of the Suns were their targets, but now the Western Conference teams are very sensitive to mutual transactions, so most of the deals are still in the rumor stage, and the big deals that can really shock the league have not really happened.

The competitive environment in the East is relatively good. The Heat are focused on playing badly after Wade was injured. The Charlotte Bobcats are also waiting for a new savior after experiencing a failed draft. The Knicks, Bucks, Bulls, and there are not many teams that can be played in the East. The Celtics are ahead of the times, with the Magic following closely, with the Cavaliers ranked third and the Pistons ranked fourth. Compared with the Western Purgatory competitive environment, the East is paradise.

After the Trail Blazers easily defeated the Supersonics and the Heat, they won five consecutive victories. The team is thriving. Bill Simmons is being revealed from ESPN column. The news that the Trail Blazers management is preparing to trade Paul Gasol with Zach Randolf instantly triggered the media. Then the news that Randolf suspected of refusing to play for the Trail Blazers makes people suspect that this promising team is about to collapse.
