The Trail Blazers won the Nuggets game, and Curry once again became the player with the highest score in the game.

However, his 32 points did not change how people think of him.

After all, Tai Lawson is not a very famous player now. To abuse an Anonymous 32 points is not something worth bragging about.

If Curry can score 32 points on Kobe one day, that would be amazing.

Therefore, all kinds of sarcastic reports are still emerging one after another.

"Curry killed the Nuggets at 32 points, but there are still three points that he is not as good as Paul."

"Are the second-year Tanhua really ready? The Nuggets are probably not a touchstone."

"32 points are worthy of praise, but Curry's stability is still far from Paul."

Obviously, no one believes that this thin defender can really succeed.

Among these young point guards, Westbrook, who has an exaggerated physical fitness in the village next door, and Wall, who is as fast as lightning in Washington, has the foundation for success.

Stephen Curry just made a three-pointer.

It seems that no matter whether there is Wayne or not in this world, it cannot change the fact that Curry is not optimistic about it.

However, when faced with these criticisms, Curry no longer cared about it.

As Wayne said, why did he compare with Chris Paul?

You guys are so idle that you are more worried about yourself. Anyway, I have no melons for his Chris Paul.

After two games, the last bit of relaxation left in the All-Star Game was also exhausted.

Next, both for the East and West will be a terrible playoff sprint!

To use the word "terrible" to describe it is not an exaggeration.

Because the competition this season is too fierce.

In the West alone, the outside world believes that the championship teams include the Spurs, the Trail Blazers, the Lakers and the Warriors, and the hidden championship team Mavericks, and there are five teams in the West alone who have the chance to compete for the championship!

In the East, there are only five of the Bulls, Heat, Nets, Green Kai and Pacers, but don’t forget that losing Howard’s magic is also a messing stick in the East.

After Angua went to the Knicks, the Knicks' mission was to retain a playoff spot.

In order to make the playoffs, the Knicks will never make any team feel better in the past two months.

This is probably the most competitive season since the 21st century.

Therefore, after the game with the Nuggets, Carlisle also held a meeting with the coaching staff, mainly to study the rankings of this year's regular season and then formulate corresponding strategies.

Wayne was also invited to attend the meeting, so it is necessary to let the stars know the team's strategy.

In the past few seasons, even if some teams deliberately chose rankings, they mainly wanted to choose an opponent who was easier to play in the first round, and then tried not to meet strong opponents early in the second round.

But this year, if the ranking is not ideal, it is not as simple as meeting a strong opponent early in the second round, but it is very likely that you will not be able to pass the first round!

Judging from the current situation, no matter which one ranks, there will definitely be a hard battle in the second round. There are too many strong teams in the Western Conference this year, and there is no choice.

Therefore, Carlisle's goal is to meet a slightly weaker opponent in the first round so that he can save his energy to fight for the second round.

The current situation is that fourth and fifth are the worst rankings. Because if the Trail Blazers rank fourth or fifth, there is a high probability that they will meet the Lakers or Mavericks in the first round.

This is the difficulty of hell as soon as you start.

This is not a joke. If you can't play well, it's a one-round tour.

The championship team's first round of the game is an unacceptable result.

Even if they can fight to the second round, the team will definitely become exhausted.

Therefore, fourth and fifth are the rankings that the pioneers are trying hard to avoid.

Carlisle hopes that the team will keep the current second place as stable as possible, and it is not impossible to chase the first place, but that will take too much energy.

If the player is injured in order to win the first place in the regular season, it will be more than worth the effort.

In short, if there is a chance in the West, it is of course the best, but it is not forced.

Wayne agreed with this, not only because it takes greater risks to compete for the first place in the West, but also because the Grizzlies, the eighth place in the West, are not easy to fight.

Wayne counts now that in fact, among the top eight teams in the West, the only team that is easy to play in the first round is the Nuggets, which the Trail Blazers just won yesterday.

None of the rest is easy to fight, they are all tough.

I won’t talk about those championship teams. The Thunder are not weak teams now. In the original history, they reached the Western Conference Finals this year.

The Grizzlies are even more difficult to mess with. Although the team's core Rudy Guy was reimbursed for the season not long ago, this will make the Grizzlies stronger.

When Guy was there, the team still played around him. But now, the team has completely built a system around the Double Bears, and Conley's connection and Bathir's key scores have made the Grizzlies a strong team that will resolutely fight slow pace and positional battles.

Without Guy, the Grizzlies' style is more unified.

To put it bluntly, the reason why the Grizzlies can only be ranked eighth in the West is that Guy was injured too late.

If Guy hadn't been earlier, the Grizzlies would never have been hovering on the edge of the playoffs.

Guy at this time was still a player with strong cancer attributes.

In Wayne's previous life, a very embarrassing thing was that as long as there was no Guy, which team would be reborn.

Guy is simply the best interpreter of "Ewing's Law".

The so-called Ewing's Law, in the words of Chinese fans, is simply interpreted: "Winning is not scary, and it is embarrassing if you lack someone."

That's how Guy is. Without him, the Grizzlies played better. After Guy was injured, the Grizzlies' winning rate soared.

A few years later, Guy went to the Raptors, and the Raptors had a bad record. As soon as Guy left, the Raptors instantly became third in the East.

Guy during this period was simply the spokesperson for the word "cancer".

It was later that Guy gradually recognized himself and positioned himself as a role player, playing support and even playing substitutes, and his reputation began to gradually improve.

Therefore, the grizzly bear without Guy is really untouchable.

With such a study, the second in the West is the best ranking, and the fourth below includes the fourth, which is the worst ranking.

Then the next goal is very clear, and do your best to stabilize the second place!

If the West can maintain the second place in the West, then the probability of the first place can be the Nuggets.

Pinch the softest persimmon and let others fight with bayonets!

Of course, the Trail Blazers are not the only one in the world who are smart, and other teams also know the importance of second place in the West.

So next, the Warriors, Lakers and Mavericks will also launch a fierce impact on this.

In addition, the gap between us is not big, and the ranking will drop if we miss a little.

Therefore, the last two months will undoubtedly be very difficult to play.

After the meeting, Wayne felt extremely stressed.

It is said that the competition is great this season, but after careful consideration, it is found that the difficulty is even greater than expected.

In the eight teams in the playoffs, except for themselves and the Nuggets, 6 of them are not easy to play.

That's so outrageous.

I remember when Wayne was watching football, especially after the era of group formation began, there were actually only a few competitive teams in the entire league.

It's not like it is now, blooming everywhere.

Just like what Wayne thought before the start of the season, the championship this season is extremely valuable!

Whoever can reach the top and whoever can break through the siege will be the king of the 1910s.

King of Kings!

The Martial Saint discovered that Wayne's expression became much more serious when he was training today.

As Wayne's old partner, he still knows Wayne very well.

If it weren't for the pressure, Wayne would never have looked like he was suffering and revenge.

So during the training interval, the Martial Saint also chatted with Wayne.

"Wei, it's the most difficult stage of the regular season every year. I still remember that time in 2005, we encountered some injuries in Indian Nambolis. But in the end, we survived..."

“Yes, that time in 2005…

Speaking of which, this is the seventh time I have experienced such a moment, but I still feel a little... nervous."

Wayne smiled, and before he knew it, he had played in this league for 7 seasons.

But the experience of playing games in college seems to be just something that happened not long ago.

In the blink of an eye, it was a flash of fingers.

"It's okay, although I'm old,... don't worry, Wei, I will try my best to send the team to the podium, really.

You know, it is very lucky that a player of my age can still play in the championship team.

So, I won't keep it. I will do my best to help you, even if I use up the last drop of oil in the tank."

Wayne glanced at the Martial Saint in surprise, but he didn't expect Jackson to suddenly say this to him.
