Affecting their party's home-field advantage in the first round.

However, their goals don't stop there.

Both Wang Zelin and other teammates have greater ambitions for this year's regular season.

Driven by ambition, the entire Blazers team was able to maintain a strong desire for victory in the long regular season.

This is one of the main reasons why the Blazers have achieved such an impressive record.

On March 2, the Trail Blazers faced the Bucks led by newly-minted All-Star Antetokounmpo at home.

Although Antetokounmpo has gradually realized his talent and showed the style of the Greek monster in the future, coupled with the assistance of Middleton who has the reach of a quasi-All-Star, it is enough to ensure that they can dominate the Eastern Conference.

It's a pity that what they faced tonight was the defending champion Portland Trail Blazers who were better than them in all aspects.

It is actually very simple to defeat the Bucks. All you need to do is control Antetokounmpo. In the tactical system carefully created by Jason Kidd, Antetokounmpo is the absolute core of the Bucks' tactical system.

Get rid of him, and the Bucks will defeat themselves.

Therefore, after Wang Zelin took the initiative to ask for a match, Antetokounmpo suddenly became a small letter. He played 36 minutes in the entire game, making 5 of 21 shots, 0 of 1 three-pointers, and free throws, and he barely scored 14 points.

Plus 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal.

His contribution on the defensive end is still outstanding. Wang Zelin is not a god. He is already very powerful if he can suppress the opponent's offense. Isn't it embarrassing to ask him to limit the opponent's defensive performance?

This Alphabet Song was purely undercover. Although Middleton kept going wild, facing the turns of Patton and Harrell, he still made 11 of 22 shots, 3 of 3 three-pointers, 1 of 1 on serve, and scored 26 efficiently.

Even if they score points, it will be difficult to restore the team's decline.

In the end, the Trail Blazers easily defeated the Bucks at home 120:93.

Fortunately, for the young Antetokounmpo and Middleton, losing to the defending champion is not an unacceptable thing.

The result of losing the game must be bitter, but when you think that the opponent is a dynasty that has dominated the league for three years, the bitter result immediately becomes acceptable.

After all, countless strong teams have lost to the Trail Blazers in the past three years. Although the Bucks lost more than they won when playing against those strong teams, at least they were not as uncomfortable as they are now against the Trail Blazers.

Therefore, after feeling a little uncomfortable for a while after the game, Antetokounmpo and Middleton still greeted Wang Zelin very enthusiastically.

At the same time, Wang Zelin did not forget to encourage these young people with unlimited potential after the game, saying that he hoped that the Bucks could bring him more surprises when the two sides meet next time.

At this moment, Wang Zelin has already painted a picture in his mind.

In a future season, Antetokounmpo has grown into a complete Greek monster, and Middleton has also become a real rice god. When the two lead the Bucks to break out from the East and meet him in the finals, he will definitely give these players

The two brothers left a deep playoff run.

When the time comes, he may have to follow the example of his predecessors and say something profound to Antetokounmpo: "Come on, Sao Nian, the future is yours!"

That picture makes people feel excited just thinking about it.

…

After getting off to a good start in March, the Trail Blazers originally planned to continue their efforts and achieve greater success.

Unexpectedly, on the back-to-back trip to San Francisco on the 4th, they suffered a heavy blow from the Warriors.

Tonight, every one of the Warriors was as if they had taken aphrodisiacs. They played with such ferocity and were in such good shape that they shot 48% of their three-pointers in the game!

They are a well-known three-point team in the league. While they shoot nearly 50% from the field, they can also maintain a defensive efficiency of around the top five in the league. It is difficult not to win.

In the end, the Trail Blazers lost to the Warriors 119:125, and their winning streak was ended.

In the next three games, the Trail Blazers quickly adjusted their state. First, they easily defeated the Wizards 131:93 at home, and then played two consecutive away games against the Suns and Pelicans, facing these two Western Conference teams.

In the new year, the Blazers tortured the vegetables so much that it felt so good.

After a wave of three consecutive victories, the Trail Blazers' record successfully broke through to 60 wins and 6 losses, becoming the first 60-win team in the league.

The Trail Blazers official website immediately updated a shocking announcement after the game:
