The strongest basket king

Chapter 367 Team Trends

"Jordan grabs rebounds and pushes people for fouls. He is a bit over the top. This season, his rebounding data ranks second, but Xiang Chu ranks first."

"Galinari! Gallinari hit another three and the man is back."

"Redick got three free throws, the Clippers still have a chance, the Nuggets are not invincible."

"Oh, my God, Jordan made his sixth foul and Xiang Chu got to the free throw line again."

"The Clippers didn't go inside again, they plan to give it a go."

"Crawford! Can you hit a three-pointer...Unfortunately, it's a little short."

"The Clippers can only choose foul tactics. Knight made free throws very steadily. He made two free throws."

"Redick! He didn't hit a three-pointer. There was no time. The Clippers fought to the end. It's a pity that this is Denver, and they can't take away the victory."

Xiang Chu's data this time is not particularly scary, but the seven Nuggets scored in double figures.

This is the game he wants, fully blooming, and the opponent has nothing to do.

In fact, the Clippers have played well this time, but this is the difference between an ordinary strong team and a strong team.

Rivers was also very helpless after the game, saying that they found their status a little late.

The Nuggets will play back-to-back next, but both games are at home, which will not have a great impact on them.

The next back-to-back away games will be their test. The Nuggets' schedule before Christmas is not very good.

Fortunately, Xibel has come over, and Olivia will not be so boring.

The younger sister Olivia likes to eat and drink, but she is still a nice person.

The relationship between the two sisters is also very good. At the beginning, Xibel helped Xiang Chu and Olivia to get their parents' blessing easily.

However, the two families are still far apart. Xiang Chu thought that when their child was born, Olivia would probably not be too busy. At that time, the family would be complete, and she would be very happy after thinking about it.

The opponent in the second back-to-back game is the Pacers. The Pacers have a relatively poor record this season due to injuries.

They have no plans to play badly, but the current lineup is really difficult to produce results.

Without a strong scorer, the Pacers put most of their energy on defense.

Although Hibbert has dropped a bit, his height and weight are still there. Xiang Chu is a good candidate for the main defense.

On the offensive end, the Pacers basically depended on David West.

This is also a tactic for the Nuggets. As a former All-Star, David West now also has the strength of a quasi-All-Star, and he still has some means in the fourth position.

The Nuggets were also made very uncomfortable by the Pacers at the beginning, but since Hibbert got off the field with two fouls, the situation has changed somewhat.

The other insiders of the Pacers are either not too short, or they are not strong enough to withstand Xiang Chu at all.

When Xiang Chu came up with this point, Middleton and Gallinari also felt the touch on the outside.

After a stalemate for half a quarter, the score suddenly changed under the attack of the Nuggets.

After entering the rotation period, Williams dominated.

In fact, the Pacers' defensive efficiency is still there, and the players are working hard, but the offensive end has been unable to get up. It doesn't make much sense to defend against the Nuggets a few times.

There is no way, they really tried their best, and besides injuries, the strength of their two insiders has also declined.

David West was strong for a quarter, and his strong hits later were not so strong. After all, he is also 35 years old.

Hibbert is really a pity, he belongs to the type that has not fulfilled his talent.

Unlike Bynum, this dude hasn't had any major injuries.

So there is a reason why Xiang Chu is so popular. There are too few powerful insiders who have risen in the league in recent years.

The Pacers had a small explosion at the last moment of the second quarter, which prevented the Nuggets from leading by double digits.

The Nuggets scored lower than usual, but the advantage is very obvious.

Without him, the Pacers' lineup is too flawed.

The Pacers have to play hard, and the Nuggets have no opinion. If they want to change, the Nuggets don't care.

During the intermission, the Nuggets once again determined their strategy for this game, which is to focus on stability.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Nuggets raised their lead to double digits.

After David West is not outstanding, it is really difficult for the Pacers to score.

Their head coach Vogel quickly called a timeout and replaced Miles.

What the Pacers have to do now is to replace the five players with the strongest scoring ability for a last-ditch effort.

This adjustment is still somewhat useful, as CJ-Myers is the one who dares to make a move.

But they stumbled after finishing the third quarter and found that the score gap between the two sides still widened.

When Xiang Chu went down, they didn't seize the opportunity. In comparison, the Nuggets really have a lot of players who can score.

The Pacers did not give up in the final quarter, but they were only in good spirits, and there was no hope of a reversal.

The Nuggets finished the game step by step, and their record came to a nine-game winning streak unknowingly.

After the game, Pacers head coach Vogel also said that all the players on the team worked hard and they will not give up this season.

That is to say, but apart from being moved by their own fans, it will not have any impact on other teams.

Not to mention Western teams like the Nuggets, even Eastern teams don't think of them as opponents very much.

There are too many factors that affect the team's combat effectiveness every season. Last season, they fought against the Heat. Who would have thought that the Pacers would be so unlucky in the new season.

Therefore, when you have the ability to compete for the championship, you must seize the opportunity.

It is impossible for the Nuggets to completely retain the lineup next season. Xiang Chu once again told himself to work harder. If he could not defend the title, he would regret it to death.

After training the next day, George Karl took the initiative to find Xiang Chu and told him that the team might make a trade, but it would not move the main force.

The team also needs to prepare for the next season, Xiang Chu also understands.

But he also let George Karl stare at him, and if the team messes up, he will definitely make suggestions.

And what the team is planning, he also hopes to know the first time.

It is still not so safe to rely on George Karl alone. Xiang Chu called Jim Smith and asked him to keep an eye on it during this time and communicate more with the team's management.

No matter what the team does, it must not affect the defending title.

Among the players, only Xiang Chu knew about these things. He didn't talk about it with others. Instead, he was more serious in training. Some players didn't understand, but most of them worked very hard under his leadership.

The weather in Denver is already cold, but it has little effect on basketball players like them.

On December 12, Xiang Chu flew to the East with the team to start a back-to-back away trip.

The opponent they will face in the first game is the Hornets, which got off to a bad start. The Hornets also made the playoffs last season. After signing Lance Stephenson and Marvin Williams this season, their results are not keeping up. It is also a reflection of the fierce competition in the alliance.
