The world of basketball

Chapter 155 New January

The Pelicans had a very good lineup. If you want to shoot three-pointers, you have the ability to shoot three-pointers. If you want to defend and defend, hold you down. Davis and Huo Leti are the top defenders in their respective positions. The defensive ability of the third position is also very good.If they want to attack inside, they have Anthony Davis, so what kind of inside attack can't be done?Their starting lineup to fight back is one of the best in the league.

But they don't have enough depth, I mean outside of those five guys, the rest of their regular rotation isn't particularly good.

Knowing that the lineup will definitely be able to do something in the Wild West, but it also determines that their upper line will not be too high.Because if you want to reach a high ceiling in the West, then your lineup can't be a problem at all.

After playing the Pelicans, a total of 12 games in December have been played.The Spurs are 13-7 in December, which isn't a pretty statistic.In the West, where one or two wins can often lead to many rankings, the Spurs' record has dropped to sixth in the West. The Lakers, Warriors, Nuggets, Timberwolves and Jazz are ranked ahead of Mars.

The best player in the Western Conference in December was given to Jokic and Teacher Yue. In December, Jokic averaged 12 points, 12 rebounds and 22.04 assists per game, averaging a triple-double. It is also 12.3 wins and two losses, becoming the third in the Western Conference.

The best rookie of the month in the Western Conference was given to the Sun's No. 12 pick Watford. In December, Watford averaged 17 points and 7.9 rebounds per game, although the Sun's record still did not improve much.But as a rookie, this kind of data is enough to beat the pack among the rookies in the Western Conference and win the best rookie of the month in the Western Conference.

The best player of the month in the Eastern Conference was given to Leonard. During the entire month, when Irving was in a relatively sluggish state, Leonard stepped forward. Throughout December, Leonard averaged With 12 points, seven rebounds and six assists, he led the team to a wave of victories. In the end, the Knicks successfully surpassed the Celtics to win the Eastern Conference.

The selection of the best rookie of the month in the Eastern Conference was very lively. Barrett averaged 16.4 points per game, while Zion Williams also averaged 13.4 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game. Neither team's record is very good, they are the second-to-last and third-to-last in the Eastern Conference respectively, but the statistics and growth of the two young players let their respective teams see their potential.

In addition to the No. [-] pick Barrett and No. [-] Zion Williams, Little and Kelton Johnson also averaged more than [-] points per game.

December passed away quietly, and Mu Xiaobei did not spend Christmas with the team, but had a hearty meal with Carlin at home.

Before, Mu Xiaobei didn't understand Christmas very well. According to the official explanation, the origin of Christmas is the day when Jesus was born. Mu Xiaobei didn't understand why it became a day celebrated by people in western countries.

Of course, if I don’t understand, I don’t understand what should be respected. Christmas is like the Chinese New Year. It is a very grand festival in the United States, so Mu Xiaobei got up and prepared the ingredients for dinner tonight. Mu Xiaobei Bei is not very good at Western food, and Karlin is not very good at it either. After the two bought the ingredients and seasonings, they cooked together according to the online tutorials.

Cooking together is a very bonding thing, especially when neither of you is a great cook, because it makes two people feel familiar and feels like home.

The game will continue, and life will continue as before. The unusual thing for Mu Xiaobei is that Duncan closed his repair shop and traveled to Europe with his children.

This is the first time without Duncan.

But Mu Xiaobei always has to get used to being alone without a mentor, because everyone has their own life, just like Haruki Chuan Murakami said, not all fish will live in the same sea.

At the same time, the All-Star voting is also in full swing, but James' lead is not too big, and he and Curry are shaking ahead of other stars in the West.

Mu Xiaobei is also on the list. Chinese fans once again made American fans feel the fear of being dominated.

Although Mu Xiaobei's data this season has not improved much compared to last season's, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the change and improvement of Mu Xiaobei's tactical status in the Spurs is a bit like that of Yao Ming back then. In the Rockets, he changed from an inside attacker to the pivot of the team's offensive end.

If part of Mu Xiaobei’s stats last season were brought about by his own ability, and a small part was brought about by the Spurs’ system and style of play, Xiaobei’s stats this season will complement the Spurs’ record. North's numbers are like a barometer of the Spurs' status.

And Mu Xiaobei's average of 23 points, 11 rebounds, five assists and 2.4 blocks per game is also a very good statistic, but the score is a bit low, but it is inevitable, especially when Butler came The Spurs then shared a large portion of the offensive ball.

Looking at it now, the top 12 in the Western Conference All-Star voting are James, Curry, Durant, Harden, Davis, Lillard, Paul George, Mu Xiaobei, Anthony Towns, Butler, Yorkie Odd, Westbrook.

The top 12 in the East's All-Star voting are Antetokounmpo, Embiid, Leonard, Irving, Wall, Lowry, Love, Oladipo, Cousins, Hayward, Tatum, Porzingis.

It seems that this list will change, but the top few votes will probably not change. In the east, Bill, DeRozan, Horford, and Griffin's Zhuang Shen Dragic are still eyeing. Here, Kemba Walker, Derrick Rose, Klay Thompson, Drummond Green, Doncic, and Jordan are also chasing after him.

The most touching part of the All-Star Game is the lineup of the live broadcast. James is currently the top voter in the Western Conference, but Curry and James are almost a few votes apart.The king of votes in the East is Antetokounmpo, but the ticket types of Embiid and Antetokounmpo are almost the same.

The person who put forward the suggestion of live broadcast selection is really cruel, because it may cause the delicate relationship between the captain and other star players, especially James, he has been teammates with many All-Star players, and many All-Star players will have a relationship in the future very good.Who do you think should be chosen?

On New Year's Day in January, Mu Xiaobei and Carlin ate dumplings at home. Who wouldn't eat dumplings during Chinese New Year?
After New Year's Day, the relatively tight schedule is coming again.

On this day, the Spurs challenged the Thunder at home.This season, Paul George has returned to the strength of a superstar with one defense.

It's just that Westbrook's current state is a bit sluggish, especially its feel. In December, he shot 12 percent from beyond the arc.

But fans who like Westbrook know that Westbrook is like a powder keg, and it might blow up at any time.When this powder keg is burning, it is when Lei Ting truly reveals his name Thunderbolt.
