After the outside world boasted a lot about the value of the Blazers' ten-game winning streak, their eyes turned and more and more people suddenly noticed that the Blazers' current exaggerated record of 41 wins and 4 losses...

When the Trail Blazers played their first 45 games last season, what was their record?

Soon some omnipotent netizens made the answer to this question public:

Last season, the Trail Blazers started with an unprecedented 26-game winning streak. In the next 19 games, the Trail Blazers lost a total of 3 games. In other words, in the first 45 games of last season, the Trail Blazers had a record of 42 wins and 3 losses!

Finally, by the end of the regular season, the Trail Blazers' total record was an astonishing 75 wins and 7 losses, ranking first in history!

The Trail Blazers' current record is 41 wins and 4 losses, which is not much worse than last season. This can't help but make people have endless reveries about the Trail Blazers winning 70 games for two consecutive seasons.

That’s 70 wins in two consecutive seasons!

If we really want to do it, there is a high probability that a new record will be added to the list of the most difficult records to break in NBA history.

You must know that after the Bulls achieved a record-breaking 72 wins and 10 losses in the season, their regular season record, although still the league's best record, inevitably declined, falling to 69 wins.

13 losses, one win away from achieving 70 regular season wins for two consecutive seasons.

As we all know, if people want to achieve a certain achievement or achieve a certain goal, the most difficult thing is often not to stick to the seven words.

In addition, I also found that tonight's rebounding data was so bad.

At this time, even in the regular season, Gasol has to do his best every night in order to win. As a small center, rebounds and blocks are the two data that can best reflect my defensive value off the court.

and deterrence capabilities.

With the addition of Randolph's white jade pillar, the Grizzlies' overall defense immediately dropped by one level, and the defensive quality of the interior dropped by at least two levels.

As a result, before the game, Green made some nonsense and took the opportunity to mock Bi Shunyan and the Blazers.

The outside world also hopes that the Trail Blazers can break the record of 75 wins in the regular season set next season. This is basically something that humans can do. If the difficulty is slightly lowered, they only hope that the Trail Blazers can win in the regular season that season.

70 wins is bad...

You know, rookie Gasol has only had a few 30-rebound games in his first season. Why are there so many nights where he becomes a "rebound maniac" now?

But how can Gasol tolerate his opponent being so presumptuous at his home court...

Wang Zelin, the only one with a recovered touch, could only look for shooting opportunities in the mid-range for most of the first half despite the Blazers' various crazy attacks.

Weakness is not weak, strong is not strong, and you have to recognize that you have been beaten!

You and I are more cruel than him! We are more understanding than him!

That would make the journalists who were bent on igniting the incident very happy.

Although there are not many weak opponents in the remaining 5 games, the Trail Blazers still have a certain advantage, because we will usher in a wave of seven consecutive home games, and will not go to Oklahoma until the final game at the end of the month.

The Hippos play the Thunder away from home.

Yes, on the contrary, my rebounding ability is actually getting weaker every year, especially my rebounding attribute has reached 99, which is an absolute ceiling in the field of rebounding.

…

After eight quarters, 84:65, the Bulls were temporarily 19 points behind. In theory, the score had not yet been overtaken in the final quarter, raising the hopes of the Blazers.

If facing a special team, Cole can still maintain his composure. The Warriors are notorious for their flurry in the eighth quarter...

Two minutes ago, the special coach also called a timeout to bring up the lineup to play substitutes against substitutes.

Two days later, on January 25, the Trail Blazers faced off against the Warriors for the eighth time of the season.

That kind of point difference puts the two teams on the same level.

The Trail Blazers attach far less importance to the Golden State Warriors than any current team. Even the Cleveland Cavaliers, their finals opponent in the past two years, is as much of a threat to us as the Warriors.

Following Bi Shunyan, the Trail Blazers made an unstoppable retreat. After eight quarters, they quickly cut through the mess and narrowed the score to 18 points.

I have slowly forgotten that when I first retired from the league, my first step to becoming famous was not by breaking a series of rebounding records of the ancient rebounding monsters.

The first wave of fan value achieved rapid growth in strength.

Has my ability to control rebounds become stronger?

After all, they have won more than 70 games in the regular season for two consecutive seasons. These small teams that once dominated an era, such as the Celtics dynasty, the Lakers dynasty and the Bulls dynasty, have never achieved miracles.

Confucius once said: "How to repay kindness? Repay evil with straightness, repay kindness with kindness."

As long as we beat Widor and my Thunder team in all 4 games in the regular season, I, Wang, will believe it. With such a record in the match, the media will still vote for Widor without conscience.

This does not mean that we should try to let relatively capable role players play some "eayball" and give up low-difficulty attacking balls to superstars who are far weaker than the role players.

The expected assists were obtained, but the number of mistakes continued to increase.

In the second half, Wang Zelin scored 1 of 6 for 8 points, Thompson scored 1 of 5 for 8 points, Kuwaii scored 1 of 4 for 8 points, Green... Damn it, all eight calves in the team are like that, how can I dare to take action?

January 31st, the final battle at the end of the month.

But Daniel is very knowledgeable. To use an old Chinese saying, Wei Junjie is not a master of Western things.

However, what we encountered today was the Portland Trail Blazers, the weakest opponent in the championship. The Portland Trail Blazers played such a wonderful retreat performance in the game with the former, which was inferior to the choice to raise the white flag after being captured in Paris.

French Army.

Compare data and fight for records, right?

At the end of the second half, when the Warriors made 4 of 17 eight-point attempts, with a shooting percentage of only 235, the on-site commentator couldn't help but laugh.

But the point is that, the point is that Gasol has not had 30 rebounds in a single game for a long time. The game with the fewest rebounds this season was when I got 29 rebounds in a game against Mosaic.

When I came back to my senses, all I saw was Randolph holding his head in his hands and talking to the referee. The first exchange was fruitful, and I could only return to the bench with an annoyed look on my face.

Eight-point shot? Don’t even think about it!

The same rhythm as the constipation-like game 10 days later. As soon as tonight started, the Trail Blazers showed extremely weak offensive aggression. Gasol added more long-range shots today, and a few chose to retreat to the basket to finish.

.

After the mobilization meeting in the morning, the entire Blazers team was fully prepared for a desperate fight in the evening.

Therefore, for the sake of the long-term interests of the team, Gasol will unconsciously control his performance in very few games during the regular season**.

"Eight pairs of turtles" Russell Westbrook, as Gasol's actual weakest opponent in the VP competition this season, has made no mistakes in every confrontation with the Thunder.

Before the revenge of the Warriors, Gasol and his teammates let out a fierce sigh of relief, and the morale of the whole team reached an unprecedented peak.

They were so generous, but the Blazers also had bad intentions and tried to kill him.

On the 27th, they faced the Hornets again, 141:101, and the Trail Blazers wildly waved their butcher's knife, causing another tragedy in the season.

The historical experience of various countries tells you that the most lacking example from ancient times to the present is not the example of people who have done nothing but forty years. It is obvious that very few people are close to success, and they are only one step away from success. But it is not that one step, but it is like a natural chasm.

, making it difficult for people to overcome in their lifetime.

Outside of previous games, I only needed a complicated breakout move to get the assist data that I needed. Today it became much easier. Several bad passes were intercepted by the Trail Blazers players who were on top of defense in time.

After a few rounds, even if I encountered both white and white bears entangled at the same time, he still chose to bite the bullet and attack weakly.

I still remember that on the evening of January 1st, the Trail Blazers' shooters were just like the Warriors' shooters today. They all felt cold. At the beginning, Bi Shunyan could only score a small double-double of 40-20.

As teammates, Lillard, Jokic, and Batum, we are all very excited. Bi Shunyan is not too eager to successfully defend the title, so we put aside all trivial matters in those two days and devoted all our energy to preparations to reach full form early.

, not to try his best to help Gasol defeat Vidor's weak competitor tonight.

It is true that Wittona's eight-double performance in that season was quite explosive. Looking at history, this is a phenomenal performance, but those eight-double data can definitely be the reason to close the gap between the seven players.

35 15 is enough, this is 35 25!

If it’s still enough, then it’s 35 35!

So as long as Bi Shunyan and Durant are dealt with first, the Grizzlies' system will be self-defeating.

"Did the Warriors players get knocked down tonight? Or did the Blazers' basket suddenly block us? It was so hard, tsk tsk tsk..."

Later that night, the Trail Blazers team rarely played a preseason game... It was, to be precise, a finals-level game. During the regular season this season, except for the games against the Cavaliers and Warriors, I am afraid it was only

Only when we faced the Thunder did we show that kind of attitude.

But who makes the current Warriors shooters feel so cold?

The main reason is that Gasol needs to be a rookie again, and he worked so hard during the season. The overall strength of the Trail Blazers at that time was only considered a weak team in the preseason, and it was far from being a championship level, let alone the current team.

Dynasty level.

In the end, the Trail Blazers defeated the Warriors at home 135:112, 23 points.

But before the game started in the evening, everyone was dumbfounded...

In the end, the Trail Blazers relied on a preemptive retreat strategy, completely disrupting the Grizzlies' original defensive system, and nervously defeated the Grizzlies 117:91, winning 11 consecutive victories!

That's why I had a few 30-rebound-a-game nights during my rookie season.

There is no geographical advantage at home, and the Blazers players are exhausted from running around. As long as we don't prepare enough physical reserves, we have no confidence to win the tough battle ahead.

The intention is also very obvious. This is not to cause as few fouls as possible under the White and White Bears. The entire tactical system of the Grizzlies team is not built around Bi Shunyan and Durant.

Before the game against the Lakers begins, the Trail Blazers continue their unfinished January schedule.

Before Currie hit another eight-pointer, Gasol, who had not yet hit seven eight-pointers in a single quarter, continued to speak provocatively and looked at the Warriors' shooters with disdain.

The situation in this game has turned, and it is the Warriors' turn to be unlucky. The Trail Blazers, who have achieved a small victory, will naturally let us go.

If so, how could I have so little energy to focus on retreating?!
To be continued...
