Chapter 203, A calm February.

When Bobo lost to the Trail Blazers last time, he began to realize that although Parker and Manu had more destructive power, they were also very limited. Parker's range determined that he could not pull the space; and Manu's stability was also a headache.

So there are several modes in their game.

Conventional style: The ball holder tries to create misalignment through pick-and-roll, while the ball does not create defensive misalignment by moving around the pile, and the person does not stick to the ball and keeps running, and then goes back and forth until the position advantage (missing) or defensive misalignment (empty position);

Single-core strong attack mode: main attack point (usually Parker/Manu, now there are occasional scenes of Dior) with the ball and tear the defensive formation, and pass the ball according to the situation in the regular style of unballed running.

Dual-core mode: Usually when Manu and Parker are on the court at the same time, they have stronger killing ability, with the intention of compressing the opponent's formation.

Such a Spurs are difficult to play. After playing many games with the Trail Blazers in a row, Popovich also understood the tactics of opening the Blazers.

Prichard is obviously inferior to Popovich in coaching.

During the suspension period, the Trail Blazers did not respond too strongly, and he did not realize this problem.

The result is

The Spurs lost the game with their smooth conduction ball.

106 to 99.

The Trail Blazers Devil was defeated at home.

There are too many NBA games, and losing to the Spurs in the regular season is not a big deal. This is not the playoffs.

Will you meet the Spurs in the playoffs?

This is hard to say.

After losing this game, the Trail Blazers immediately rushed to the next away game.

......

One after another.

.........

After the entire February, the Trail Blazers performed averagely, with a total of 10 wins and 8 losses.

This month, Xue Ding and Roy also suffered minor injuries intermittently, and Xue Ding also had three rounds of quit. Although he repeatedly claimed that he could take the injury, the Trail Blazers' uniform team really did not dare to try to take the risk of Xue Ding being seriously injured.

At the end of the month, small forward Batum made a comeback!

The injury problem is too serious for the Trail Blazers, and Batum's comeback undoubtedly gave the team a powerful heart-warming agent.

February 22nd is also the day to summarize transactions.

The latest big deal is the Rockets, Kings, and Knicks’ seven-player deal.

McGrady went to the Knicks, Landry went to the Kings, and the Rockets exchanged Armstrong, Jeffries, and Martin.

Xue Ding knew that Martin had obtained Harden's trading chips, and McGrady's departure also indirectly brought Harden, which was completely exhausted by the Rockets.

There is also a deal between the Mavericks and the Wizards. The Mavericks sent Josh Howard, Gooden, Quentin Ross and Singleton to the Wizards in exchange for Caron Butler, Haywood, and Stevenson. This deal is perfect.

When they learned about this deal, Xue Ding also knew that the Mavericks' strength had increased significantly, but Chandler was brought to the Trail Blazers by himself, which made them unable to easily become the super bull that destroyed the three giants.

Another deal is the deal between the Knights and the Wizards, and the Knights exchanged for Antoine Jamison.

This deal is hailed by the outside world as the last puzzle for LeBron James to win the first championship.

The outside world overheated Jamison, but Xue Ding didn't care at all.

Jamison is probably the only player in NBA history who scored more than 20,000 but had a basically 0 presence. He couldn't even see the shadow of Chambers, the second-last in the club 20,000 points. A very good offensive player, but that's it, his historical status is simply not available.

Jamison inherited the North Carolina striker's strategy, with comprehensive skills, with mid-range shots, and excellent back-legged footwork. He played a small forward when he was young, and he could basically be considered the second best scorer in the league's small forwards, and he was not very good at playing. He was very skilled in the small forwards. He was very academic forward, and he was as unfamiliar as Rashid and Carter, especially after leaving Golden State.

He always "I have to score this point every game, I don't want to get my hands wet..." So he is a scorer who can adapt to various systems, but in addition to scoring, the one who can do is rebound at ordinary level, position restraint at ordinary level, and support at ordinary level.

To put it nicely, Jamison's character is gentle and not silly; to put it bluntly, it is the same as Carter and Rashid.

"I will try my best to play, but don't expect me to take on a silly and swear."

In the Wizards, he is the most stable scorer in the family. But because of his existence, the Wizards' penalty area hardness - both offense and defense - is average.

How to say it?

Such a player will always look good in the starting inside line, but it is difficult to expect the team to win or above 50 wins.

It's a bit cruel to say this, but Xue Ding knows that this is the fact. Jamison's sixth man in the Mavericks may actually be the most suitable role for him to build on a strong team.

That's all the big deals.

The rest is worth mentioning.

The Trail Blazers themselves didn't make much noise, and several transaction rumors also failed.

This is also very reasonable. The Trail Blazers' lineup is very reasonable, but the continuous injuries have almost put the team in a state of collapse.

Fortunately, after the team doctor team was replaced in the All-Star Game, the overall number of injuries in the Trail Blazers did decline significantly.

Although Auden was reimbursed, it had nothing to do with this team doctor team.

Roy's injury improved significantly under the conditioning of the new team doctor.

There are several reasons why Roy was injured and injured before.

1. I had several old injuries in college. 2. McMillan's playing style is very harsh. Slow-tempo half-court offense and defense. 3. The Portland team doctor is very bad. 4. I returned several times in advance without recovering my injuries.

Second, third and fourth points were changed by Xue Ding's various influences, so Roy's injuries were naturally not that serious.

The uninjured Trail Blazers can compete for the championship, what other trades do they need?

In February, because Roy's playing time gradually stabilized, Xue Ding's shots dropped sharply, and his average score dropped again, but his assists and rebounds were still in double digits.

However, Xue Ding's scoring performances were less, but the performances of other stars were crazy, which also made Xue Ding's popularity fade slightly.

In the Lakers and Memphis Grizzlies this month, Kobe officially surpassed Jerry West to become the scoring champion in Lakers' history.

Kobe scored 44 points in the whole game, and he scored 29th point with 4 minutes and 14 seconds left in the third quarter, surpassing West with a total score of 25,913. Although the Lakers lost 93-95, this game is enough for Kobe to remember.

On February 22, Durant scored 32 points in the Thunder and Minnesota Timberwolves. He scored more than 25 points in 28 consecutive games, surpassing his senior Iverson's record in 27 consecutive games, but his momentum ended three days later, only 21 points, catching Jordan's 40 consecutive games to stop.

In the ranking of players under the age of 25, Durant ranks first and Xue Ding second.

In the Nets and the Trail Blazers game on February 24, Yi Jianlian scored 6 points and 2 rebounds, and UAE scored 1,502 points in total, becoming the second Chinese to break through the 1,500-point mark.
