Chapter 397: Leading
After the Christmas game, all teams in the league were given three days off, and the remaining 26 teams actually had four days off, except for the four teams that were still playing on Christmas.
What does 4 days mean? Basically, the bruises on the player's body can be removed, that is, the so-called skin injuries can be recovered, but the injured muscles and bones are not so easy to recover.
Ji Guosha's game against the Cavaliers, many places on his body were hit by the dead orangutan and caused light tissue damage, that is, the body was bruised and swollen. Swift was distressed, and he was lucky to escape, and the little star saw him so miserable and did not pursue Emma again. Watson thing.
Of course, Ji Guoyi, this guy is actually nothing big at all, he doesn't have hemophilia, a little swelling will stop the bleeding on its own quickly, it's no big deal at all, there will be no in three or two days, and he can happily go out to find little Hermione to hook up and do something embarrassing.
On December 30, the Clippers' first game after Christmas was on the road, challenging the Dallas Mavericks, who were eighth in the East, but the Clippers failed to complete the task of killing the cowboys three times, and Terry and Norwegian Kings both exploded in this game, and the two combined to score 72 points to help the Mavericks defeat the Clippers 104-108.
Ji Guoqiu got 20 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks, and Ji Guoqiu got 30 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks.
It was the Clippers' last game of December and the last ~ game of 2008, and the two brothers suffered a tragic loss before their own birthday.
The bad news doesn't stop there, Garcia strained his calf in this game and needs to rest for four weeks. This is the Clippers' toughest injury this year.
But on January 1, 2009. The alliance gave Ji Guosha, one of the two brothers, some comfort. Even the little fox himself didn't expect that the league would award him the Player of the Month in December?
Ji Guoyi thought that he would not get the best of the month with 64 points in November, and this season may be out of play.
But he never expected that the alliance would give him one in December. Stern was so nice to him.
The Clippers played 13 games in December, and Ji Guoyi averaged 25.3 points, 10.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 3.1 blocks, 1.8 steals, 2.6 turnovers and 3.9 fouls per game, shooting 51.5% from the field and 42.9% from three-point range. He shot 90.6 percent from the free-throw line.
Although this number is good enough to qualify for the Player of the Month award, considering that it was his brother who won it last month, and then give it to his brother this month, then the other players in the West should protest. In fact, there are now many players complaining about the unfairness of the league and deliberately supporting the twin brothers.
The Oklahoma region of the media is the most dissatisfied, and their core Durant, who also reached 25+6+3 in December. is not inferior to Ji Guosha, and there is a gap in the team's record at most
All right. Saying that, the media in Oklahoma themselves felt embarrassed, since the team's record was not as good, what was wrong with giving Ji Guoshame to the best player of the month?
In fact, the dissatisfaction of these people is more that the identity of the two brothers Chinese makes these whites feel unacceptable, Ji Guoshame got 25+10+3+3, why can't he be the best of the month? Not to mention that the Clippers have only lost one game this month, the number of individuals and the team's record, there is really no one in the West this month better than Ji Guoqiu, even his brother Ji Guoqiu, this month's table is not as good as this dead fox.
The Eastern Conference of the Month award went to Dwyan. Wade, the Flash averaged 37.5 minutes per game in December, contributing 29.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.4 blocks, shooting 46.2% from the field and 34.1% from three-point range, with a team record of 9-4.
In this comparison, it can be seen that from the individual count, regardless of the different positions of the two, in fact, the fox brother's comprehensive contribution exceeds Wade's, especially in the shooting percentage, which is best reflected, and a higher shooting rate means that he can get a score close to Wade without having to shoot more than 20 times.
Don't think that the Little Fox is Howard's kind of rough guy who only shoots in the three-second zone, his shots are like Nowitzki, most of them are on the outside rather than the inside, so his 180 Club table is better than Wade. Especially in addition to scoring and assists a little less, Ji Guosha is above Wade for most of the time.
If you compare the team's record, it is more intuitive and clear, 12-1 and 9-4, which is not a little bit worse.
Domestic fans have scolded the Yankees for discriminating against the Chinese, Ji Guosha was said irresponsible when he won the best of the month, why didn't James say that the league covered up when he won the best of the month?
Some serious Chinese fans compared James to the number of the best of the month for the first time that year, and Ji Guoyi, the Gorilla averaged 26.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 2.4 steals and 1.1 blocks per game, shooting 51.5% from the field and 32.5% from three-point range, and the team had a 9-5 record.
Isn't this more intuitive, there is not much gap between James's number jù and Ji Guoyi, and the team's record is that the little fox won with an absolute advantage, and if you look at it comprehensively, the conclusion is that the Yankees eat too much!
In 2009, the two brothers officially turned 20 years old, but they were still two little children. At the age of 20, even in the sports circle of youth, most of them have just debuted at this age, and Qiao Gang is still working hard in the NCAA at this time, but these two have almost won the honor that many players can't get in their lifetime.
Basically, the two brothers are now one regular season MVP away from a Grand Slam, and even if there is no hope this season, they will surely be the strongest contenders for regular season MVP next season.
On January 1, the Clippers challenged the Philadelphia 76ers away, and Ji Guoyi, who had just won the Player of the Month, made a big show in the fourth quarter, scoring 15 points in a single quarter to help the team defeat the opponent, and also proved that if he wants to brush up points, let alone average 25 points per game, he can also brush up on 35 points per game as long as he wants. For example, that 64 points is the best proof, no one in the 03 generation has ever scored 60+, but he Uncle Fox has done it.
Ji Guoqiu had 22 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists and 4 blocks. Ji Guoyi scored 20 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks.
January 3rd. The Clippers continue to play on the road. This time the opponent was the Phoenix Suns led by two Canadian teammates, and the inside combination of O'Neal and Xiaobawang, although the record was not good, caught the Clippers a fat beat today, plus Nash's two key three-pointers in the fourth quarter, the Clippers suffered their fifth loss of the season.
Ji Guoqiu got 24 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks, and Ji Guoqiu got 24 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks.
On January 5, the Clippers beat the Pistons 110-95 at home. Ji Guoqiu got 25 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 blocks, and Ji Guoqiu got 28 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks.
On January 7, the Clippers played the Mavericks again at home, and this time the Dallas people were not so lucky, with a score of 118-104, and the Clippers beat the Cowboys by a big margin.
The two brothers scored an unprecedented 81 points in this game, becoming the most attacking interior combination this season.
Ji Guoqiu got 34 points, 18 rebounds, 10 assists and 4 blocks, and Ji Guoqiu got 48 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks. The latter's 48-point count made many fans sigh that Los Angeles has another guy who sees scoring as if he was chopping melons and vegetables. He is unlikely to be able to break the 81-point record of his sworn rival team in the future.
On January 9, the Clippers played the San Antonio Spurs again, this time Ginobili has returned, the result is as Dunleavy Sr. expected, the Clippers can not take advantage of the inside, the same is true for the outside, the two teams should be evenly matched, but the Spurs are more disciplined, experienced, and make fewer mistakes in the game than the Clippers, which became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The Clippers lost a little bit in each quarter, and when they failed to fight back in the final quarter, they lost the game in a straight way.
'It's an away game, we're evenly matched, so it's natural that we make more mistakes than them when we're young. But it doesn't matter, we will remember these lessons, and the next time we meet, we will definitely overcome them. Ji Guosha stiffened his neck again at the post-game press conference, but it made Ginobili, who scored 28 points, even more proud.
The Argentine bald man had just recovered from his injury, and his form had been up and down, but today he played a surprising game. Don't look at his lack of scoring, but this is in 28 minutes of playing time, with 15 shots in exchange, full of gold.
The score of the two teams was 96:102, and the Clippers lost by 6 points.
Ji Guoqiu got 14 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks, and Ji Guoqiu got 21 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks.
On January 10, the Clippers won away against the New Orleans Hornets; On February 12, the Clippers took revenge on the Suns at home; On Feb. 15, the Clippers beat the Hawks at home; On February 18, the Clippers beat the Atlanta Hawks at home; On Feb. 20, the Clippers defeated the Timberwolves to win five straight games; On February 22, the Clippers killed the Lakers three times; On Feb. 24, the Clippers broke the Thunder; On Feb. 26, the Clippers cut down the Warriors; On February 27, the Clippers finally lost back-to-back to the Trail Blazers, and the winning streak ended in single digits.
On January 29, the Clippers played another eastward trip against the Chicago Bulls, narrowly winning in overtime.
On January 31, the Clippers played away against the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the little emperor who was waiting for him led the team to break the league leader this time, and James scored 44 points in this game to help the Cavaliers defeat the Clippers.
So far, the Clippers have only lost three games in January, and they are the team with the best record in the league that month, firmly holding the league leader. Even after losing their final game to the league's second-place Cavaliers at the end of the month, their record still wombly leads, with a 36-9 record that gives them hope for a zào65+ victory.
After all the games in January, there was another change in the Western Conference standings.
1 Clippers (36-9), 2 Spurs (32-12), 3 Trail Blazers (30-15), 4 Mavericks (27-18), 5 Rockets (26-19), 6 Lakers (25-20), 7 Jazz (24-21), 8 Thunder (23-22).
It is worth mentioning that the Lakers' run-in has reached a bottleneck, and they always lose some games that they shouldn't lose, such as the Bobcats, Wizards and others. But it can also win against top teams like the Spurs and the Cavaliers. So the Purple and Gold's regular season record doesn't say much, this is definitely a playoff-stirring stick, as strong as the Clippers and Spurs, and in short, no one wants to touch them.
