The Strongest Bishop in the NBA
Chapter 382: Christmas War, the hidden danger of the Wizards
This year's Christmas War, the most important game is the Washington Wizards and the Cleveland Cavaliers duel.
These two Eastern teams are currently recognized as the strongest teams in the league, ranking among the top two odds for winning the lottery.
Although the Wizards do not have Wang Xiao as a coach, the team that Wang Xiao has established over the past few years still exists. Curry, Thompson, George, Leonard and Gobert’s starting five tigers can be described as unstoppable, although they want to break the season. The regular season record just set this season is unlikely, but there is no problem with steadily winning more than 60 games.
On the other hand, the Cavaliers’ four giants did not fall apart after a failed season, but they were vigorously fighting for the championship with the Wizards who lost Wang Xiao.
So far this season, the Cavaliers’ performance has been remarkable, James’ evolution has become more horrible, and Howard, Irving and Love have also begun to make changes like Wade to adapt to James’ playing style, although such results inevitably make The figures of the three have declined to a certain extent, but the Cavaliers have become stronger, there is no doubt.
The Christmas War was at the Cavaliers' home. The Cavaliers who had the home court advantage took the initiative as soon as they started and quickly opened the gap under James' leadership.
The Wizards started slightly slower, but they quickly adjusted their status, gradually relying on the advantage of the lineup to slowly recover the points difference.
When the game reached the halftime break, the two sides scored 61:57, and the Cavaliers only had a 4-point advantage.
In the following third quarter, the Wizards habitually exerted their strength. A 12:2 attack wave instantly reversed the situation and overtake the score, with a 6-point advantage into the fourth quarter.
At the end of the game, the two sides had a lot of fighting. The first five minutes each scored only 5 points, but in the next five minutes, Curry broke out.
Hitting three three-pointers in a row helped the Wizards to widen the point difference to more than double digits. The Wizards then stabilized this score and won the Christmas Wars at the Cavaliers' home.
The Wizards fans rejoiced, because this is the second time the Wizards beat the Cavaliers in the regular season, two wins and two wins. I believe the two encounters in the next playoffs will not disappoint them.
The Cavaliers fans held their heads in both hands, their eyes helpless and confused.
They can see that the team has tried their best, but they still lost the game. They don’t know how to beat the Wizards. This team looks so impeccable. While the starting lineup does not lose the Cavaliers, there are still benches. Powerful players like Green and Butler.
Does it mean that the Cavaliers really missed the championship?
This seems to be the case, but Wang Xiao, who watched the game all the time, frowned slightly, and he was keenly aware of the current problems of the Wizards.
This team is a bit different from last season. Although the player's personal strength is stronger than last season, the overall fluency of the team has declined.
The reason lies in the passing of basketball.
In Wang Xiao’s system, four of the five positions of the Wizards have the ability to hold the ball to attack and pass. If necessary, even five positions can be achieved, and the Wizards are best at fast speed. The offensive and defensive transition and the pick-and-roll pass are coordinated to find players who have open positions to attack.
But this season, the Wizards' passing frequency has been significantly less, increasing the number of individual singles, some of the **** obviously have better choices, but did not execute.
"There is something wrong with the team..."
Wang Xiao knew it.
In fact, the problem of ball distribution is not only a problem with the Cavaliers, but also a problem facing the Wizards.
auzw.com The Wizards actually need more players than the Cavaliers.
Curry, George, Leonard and Thompson all need a certain amount of possession, and so are Drummond Green and Jimmy Butler on the bench.
Although many people, including Curry and Thompson, can play without a ball, they can't completely play without a ball.
As the core of Curry, it is impossible to play completely without the ball, nor is Thompson.
This other world is different.
In another world, although the Warriors version of Thompson gives the impression of a lot of off-ball offenses, in fact, he touched the ball a lot. In the peak period, he also averaged about 17 times per game. It was Durant before the Warriors. Warriors deserved the second head.
And even after Durant came, Thompson averaged fewer shots per game.
But in the current Wizards, he is only the team's fourth offensive choice point, behind Curry, George, Leonard.
If there is no ball at all, then the result is that Curry George Leonard split the ball, and Thompson can only be a fixed-point shooter.
Even Thompson, who believes in team supremacy, cannot accept such a result. Moreover, this season is Thompson’s contract year, and he also wants a generous contract.
So shortly after the start of the new season, Thompson's playing style also changed. After receiving the ball, the vacancy will still be shot quickly. If it is not a vacancy, the ball will not be passed out immediately, but it will try to rely on personal abilities to find some flaws to continue the attack. .
This situation is not limited to Thompson, George, Leonard and even Butler on the bench. After all, no one will be naturally content to be a two-headed, three-headed or even four-headed.
It's just that the Wizards' lineup is so strong that the tactical execution is not enough, and they can still easily win most of the matchups.
Wizards coach Cole certainly understands this, but there is no good way.
This is related to the richness of the contract when the player renews the contract. The number of shots that can be made in a game is so many. A few players can get rid of it if they are divided up. Even if he is the head coach, it is impossible to make these players willing. Turn over the ball, unless he is as powerful as Wang Xiao, he has the right to let any player roll up.
So he can only turn a blind eye, when all this has not happened.
The Wizards’ record is not as good as last season, and they can also leave the team with the habitual head coach Wang Xiao, everyone is still in the excuse of excuse.
Sometimes, too many talented players on the team is not entirely a good thing, but also because these players are more moderate personality, good baby type players, if it is some thorns, I am afraid that the atmosphere of the locker room has long been It's a mess.
If Wang Xiao is still in the Wizards, this time, he has to consider who will trade away from the team in exchange for some benefits.
This summer, the Wizards' salary space will face a huge challenge.
Kawhi Leonard, Klay Thompson, Drummond Green, and Jimmy Butler all expired at the same time. According to the current performance of Leonard and Thompson, they will inevitably require a maximum salary renewal. Green and Butler's renewal contract is also expected to be in the tens of millions.
At present, the Wizards' salary space can only renew at most two players, and it is not possible to renew both Leonard and Thompson at the same time.
