The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Little Jordan was completely exploded by Howard in the playoffs last season, naturally unwilling, and as Haywood did not renew the contract with the team, and then announced the signing of a 5-year contract with the Mavericks, little Jordan began to realize , His chance may be coming!

Last season, in the Wizards, Haywood was the well-deserved first center. Most of the time, he was the first player to play against the inside players of other teams.

Jordan is the second center, and McGee is the center's third choice.

Now that Heywood has left the team, and the team has no intention of recruiting inside players, then as the second center, Jordan will realize that he is likely to be pushed to the starting position.

This is actually not hard to guess at all.

Despite the same physical quality, McGee seems to have not been very optimistic about the coaches, and the playing time and opportunities given last season are far inferior to himself.

As for the Whiteside big man named in the second round of the draft, Jordan didn't even consider it.

A first-year rookie, if it is in the first round of the lottery, may be a big threat to him, but one is just a second-round pick like him, how can it be compared with his three years in the league?

Little Jordan, who thought he might be a starter, actually made some hard work this summer, soaking in the arena every day to improve his strength. Although there is no auxiliary bonus from Wang Xiao’s system, this summer little Jordan’s Progress is also visible to the naked eye.

Little Jordan has made a lot of progress. In addition, Wang Xiao still used the tactical skill of the card master in the game against Howard. Naturally, he will not lose too many rebounds.

It was easy to beat the Magic in the away show. The Wizards' performance surprised people a little, but the next few games made people have to admit that the Wizards seem to be stronger than last season!

On October 30, the Wizards defeated the Hawks 117:99 away.

On October 31, the Wizards defeated the Nets at 109:92 at home.

On November 3, the Wizards defeated the Cavaliers 121:97 away.

On November 4, the Wizards beat the Pacers 106:87 at home.

In a blink of an eye, the Wizards won a five-game winning streak, leading the league, and averaging 115.2 points per game as the previous season.

But compared to last season, people found that something was not right.

In five games, the Wizards averaged only 95.5 points per game!

This average loss per game is not exaggerated in the league. Last season, seven teams averaged less points per game than this.

But even counting the scores together is a bit stunned.

In five games, the Wizards averaged 19.7 points per game! Close to 20 points!

Even the 72-win Bulls averaged only 12.3 points per game.

Of course, this is just the data of five games, and it can't represent the Wizards' 82 games of the season.

Even so, some people have begun to discover that the Wizards' defense seems to have improved a lot compared to last season.

The Wizards of last season, despite their extremely high scoring, average points per game are also very high, almost ranked at the bottom of the league, like the Suns in 2005 and 2006, completely give up defense, relying on super high scores to win .

But the Wizards' defensive efficiency in the new season has improved significantly.

Does it mean that Wang Xiao has begun to improve the team's defense? If the Wizards can really improve the quality of defense while maintaining the existing offensive firepower, it is really quite an exaggeration...

People's guesses are still to be verified in the next game, but they are indeed right.

It is not Cole who contributed to the defensive quality improvement of the Wizards in these five games.

Although Cole has already started to improve the Wizards' defensive tactics, it is far from being so fast.

The reason why the team's defense efficiency has improved in these games is actually the role of Wang Xiao's system skills.

In the tactical skill module, there is a skill called "blocking defense". This skill is limited to outside defense, which can speed up the defense speed of outside players' defense breakthrough and pick and roll.

In these few games, Wang Xiao is using this skill. Although he has to pay 100 victory points each time, it is definitely not a loss.

In the case where the center is already scarce and the outside shooting of three-point shots is not popular, the current general trend of the league is still based on holding the ball to break the offense.

Although there are also teams that arrange a large number of running tactics to catch the ball and shoot, but after all, it is a minority, so the effect of the "blocking defense" skill is quite good.

In the face of teams that rely on running position to get shooting space, Wang Xiao also has a set of countermeasures.

Can't you run? Then I will run with you.

Everyone's physical fitness is limited, and it is impossible to squander uncontrollably.

When you are desperately running to get an empty shooting opportunity, it is easy to throw the basketball into it. Before you have time to celebrate, you turn around and see that the opponent has served and rushed towards the backcourt. Are you chasing or not chasing?

Can you sustain the running position for several consecutive rounds?

Of course, this kind of response is a little strange, just a simple attack rather than a defense, but Wang Xiao believes that as the game progresses, the Wizards' defense will gradually improve, and it can gradually meet any offensive tactics.

Wang Xiao’s self-confidence comes from his systematic tactical skills on the one hand, from the future Warriors coach Steve Cole, on the other hand, from the Wizards’ new player this year, first-year rookie Paul George.

George's debut with the Wizards was not particularly ideal.

In the game against the Magic, George came off the bench and played 24 minutes. He only scored 4 points and 3 rebounds on 1 of 5 shots.

In the team's five games in a row, George averaged 26 minutes and averaged 6 points and 3 rebounds.

As a substitute, although averaging 6 points and 3 rebounds per game is not a "color", it can be seen anyway.

However, as a rookie selected by the fourth overall pick and as a player selected by Wang Xiao, such statistics are a bit insufficient.

Which of the players selected by Wang Xiao in the first round is mediocre?

Durant averaged 20 points in his rookie season, Curry averaged 26.5 points in his rookie season last season, and Harden had 18 points and 8.5 assists in his rookie season.

In the new season, Durant currently leads the scoring list with an average of 32 points per game after five games.

Curry followed closely with 28 points per game. As for Harden, who still plays as a substitute for the Wizards, he averaged 18 points per game last season and unknowingly rose to 22 points.

Why did he get to George and suddenly fell to 6 points and 3 rebounds?

Although only five games have been played, George's data has caused many people to doubt. Has Wang Xiao overturned his boat this time?

This is really the first time!
